Legislators Eye Scandal In Military (Continued Irom Page 1) Medicare Postponed WASHINGTON ( UPI Congress today consigned to a quiet pigeon hole President Kennedy's new medicare program which would boost Social Security taxes abovi $200 a year for every worker earning $100 a week or more. , The controversial plan will not be pulled out for many months The House Ways & Means Com mittee may dust the legislation off for public hearings next sum mcr. But the showdown vote probably will be put off until next year. The program, outlined by Ken nedy in a special message Thurs day, would raise Social Security and railroad retirement taxes to finance hospitalization and nurs ing home benefits for 15 million persons 65 and older, starting Jan. 1, 1963. The same benefits would be provided for 2.5 million other eld erly persons not covered by So cial Security and railroad retire ment.

Thornton also said il was dif ficult to make claim to bonding firms until a final liability figure to the federal government lor mis use of federal binds is establish ed. A fiscal officer estimated earlier the state liability might reach $40,000. The Appling rrimrt included these items: A requisition for one Toncue Point log at $195, signed hv Maj. W.H.

Appling said a copy of the document examined a t Seattle "apparently had been altered to ' show 1!5 logs at a value of $13,06. and bore th e .signature Anderson.'"

The problems confronting our iWork Urged On Holidays SALK.M lUPli In a special message to the legislature today, Gov. Mark Hatfield paid homage to Presidents Lincoln and Wash ingtonthen urged their birthdays lumber producers cannot be re-1 no longer be observed as state solved through mere words of en couragement and patent promises by our executive agencies, Ho ran said. Johnson also introduced bills which would require imported lumber to show the country of origin and require U.S. grading ol imported lumber used in red- ral Housing Administration con- stiuetinn. Castro Nabs Smugglers holidays so the state could save $lA0.tmo a holiday. Hal field repealed a message to the 1961 session asking that the two birthdays, and primary and general election days, no longer be considered state holidays. He suggested instead that Teh 14. Oregon Statehood Day. he es tablished as a legal state holiday. II was estimated... that at least $180,000 in productive time was lost each day of these bob days." Hatfield said. lie pointed out that public schools and the department 0 f higher education do not suspend operations on these davs "It simply does not make good business sense." Hatfield said. "By no stretch of the imagina tion should it lie a sop in lieu of salary Tax League Takes Stand On Measures The Klamath County Taxpayers League took action on pending bills before the legislature at its meeting Wednesday in the court house meeting room. Unanimous support was given lo the law which would reduce work load of firemen from 72 to 36 hours. Committee chairman Rollo Shaw was authorized to send a telegram to John Mathews, legis lative chairman of the Klamath Falls Firemen's Association, now in Salem for the hearing on House Bill 1281, supporting the bill. League president Frank Weaver explained the move by repeating that the five basic functions of government, fire protection, police protection, sanitation, streets and education should have primary call on taxpayer dollars over less essential needs." A letter received from District Atiorney Dale CrabLrec regarding Ihe louality of the vector dis trict election was considered inad equate and a request was sent to the secretary of state for further clarification. Iiichard Arnett reported on Sen ate Bill 129 on zoning and termed it, "one of the most shocking hills I have ever read. It purports to take the rights of maintenance. use, construction, alteration 01 transfer from the property owner also the right to vote is minimized or truly negated." A report was also given on vec tor bill 1282. Trial Stalls As Witness Fails Court The first degree murder trial of Jerry Richard Hainea, 24, charged with the gun slaying of his eight-month pregnant wife, Christine, last Dec. 17 was re cessed until 10 a.m. Feb. 25, when state's witness Beverly Da vid, 24, failed to appear as a wit ness at 11:45 a.m. Thursday. Judge David R. Vandenberg in calling the recess indicated this was an unusually long delay in a murder trial and again warned the jurors to be especially care ful not to discuss the case during the three-day interruption in pro ceedings. The Klamath County sheriff's office said that when they issued a subpoena to Miss David prior to Feb. 21 she indicated that '.he would be present to appear as a witness. When Miss David failed to ap pear Thursday morning she was located in Fort Klamath by Al- vie Youngblood, deputy sheriff at Chiloquin. At Klamath Falls, Misi David assured the district attor ney's office that she would be present at the trial Monday morn ing. State Police patrolman Andrew Sloan testified Thursday that a short time after the shooting, while Haines was in a squad car with Sloan, the suspect said he had been having a long time dispute with his wife. The patrol man indicated that Haines sad his wife had been taunting him that the child she was bearing was not his. In other testimony, another state police patrolman, W. K. Shears, was asked to identify pic tures that the state police took at tlie scene of the shooting. The defense attorney objected to several of the pictures being introduced into evidence on the grounds that some were not reie vent and others were purely cu mulative. Judge Vandenberg withheld rul ing on the objections, but added that he felt "we're using pictures too much here." 4 ml FUNERAL Services for Delbert I Dell I Loyde Wil son, who died Feb. 20, will be at 10:30 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 23, from O'Hairs Memorial Chapel.

Libya H'PH- A devastating earthquake that "practically leveled' tlie resort town of Barce was reported to day to have killed up to 500 per sons and injured 1.000 others. The quake hit Barce, 55 miles northeast of Benghazi, Thursday night, wrecking communications and virtually reducing it to rub ble. American and British military rescue workers dug through the ruins in a frantic search lor sur vivors among the towns 3,000 pop ulation. A U.S. Air. Force source said the village was "practically leveled" and that it was feared at least 500 persons were killed and 1.0CO injured, with other vic tims still .possibly buried in the debris. Barce. once an Italian fortress and a World War II battlefield of the Axis and Allied desert forces, apparently was at the epicenter of the quake. The temblor did not alfect Benghazi, one of the two capitals of Libya, or other cities. The British, who maintain a military headquarters at Ben ghazi, rushed troops, doctors and medical supplies into the disaster area. Planes from the U.S. Air Force base at Wheelus Field outside Tripoli, the second capital 400 miles to the west, dropped para medic teams over Barce and flew an entire mobile hospital and other equipment to Benglvazi for overland transport to Barce. The British set up a vital radio link with the outside world, re placing the shattered landline communications. Traffic on t h e link between Barce and Benghazi was confined to requests for medi cal aid, food and blankets. There were no known American or British military casualties, nor were any European or U.S. civil ian xrsonnel of the many oil companies prospecting in Libya reported affected by the quake. s DON CRAWFORD Keno Post Accepted Don Crawford, presently a mem. ber of tlie Merrill elementary fac ulty, was named principal of the Keno elementary school at the regular meeting ol the county school board Thursday evening.
