SAX FRANCISCO (ITI - The
dispute between the Southern Pa

Many of their jobs were made

computers and such office equip

photo copy machines and electric
typewriters.
But others lost their jobs in
more subtle ways, through tech
nological advances which did not
affect them directly, but which
reduced their workload.
Electronics, for example, has
made possible installation of cen
tral traffic svstem which permit
a single dispatcher to control all
trains on lines as long as juo
miles. This indirectly contributed
to the loss of clerk jobs.
Electronics also has made it
possible to classify freight cars

have been used in automatic mail

GOP Committee Issues
1962 Election Report
WASHINGTON (UPD - The
Republican National Committee
has issued a report on the 12
election campaign that lists nine

The review of the party's show

state elections was contained in
a 55-page document released Sun

division.
GOP National Chairman Wil

provided "a detailed, factual basis
for satisfaction with the results of
last fall's election and optimism
as Republicans prepare for the!
campaign of 1964."
In line with these preparations,
GOP officials opened two days of
closed meetings today to hear bids
for their 1964 National Conven

phia, Detroit, Chicago. Miami
Beach, San Francisco and Dallas
and possibly others planned to
make a pitch for the convention.
The report raised a new warn

had blamed for its loss of the

S. Khrushchev's avowed policy of
peaceful coexistence. It was the
sharpest attack yet on the Soviet
leader.
The statement accused "certain

both "adventurism" and then
"capitulationism" in the Cuban
crisis last fall. It renewed the
Man thesis that all imperialists
and reactionaries are "paper ti
gers" and that to be afraid of
them is "practically nonsensical."
The statement did not attack
Khrushchev directly by name, but
Ihj references were unmistakable.
It was bitter al the fact the
growing Sino-Sovict split has
caused Russia to cut off much of
its economic aid to Red China,
saying these "certain people" con
tinue to undermine Communist
unity.
It also expressed bitterness over
Khrushchev's decision to pull his
missiles out of Cuba in the face
of a nuclear war with the capital
istic West.
"... During the Cuban events
certain people first committed the
error of adventurism, and then
committed the error of capilula

Arras o( Disagreement
Because labor bargaining is a
give-and-take process conducted
largely in secret, there's no way
of telling precisely where each
side stands at this point on spe
cific issues in the tremendously
complicated dispute. But here,
based on past statements by rep
resentatives of both sides, are the
basic positions of union and man
agement on some of the key
llie union wtiiiis a progra.n
of "controlled attrition" of jolis.
meaning guarantees in the num
ber of positions to be kept in ex
istence. The railroad says this
amounts to fcatherbedding and a
limitation on layoffs might hurt
the company's competitive posi
tion economically.
In its original notice the union
isked that displaced employes be
given the option of five years' in
come protection or severance pay
of up to 1.800 days depending on
the seniority. The company re
gards this as excessive, but
agrees to the emergency board s
'stairstep" plan.
In any retraining program, the
union demanded that a specific
number of employes be continous-
ly assigned on a straight senior
ity basis to nonworkmg hut paid
training positions, regardless ot
the need for the training or the
ability of the individuals to qual
ify for the w ork. The company in
dicated it would be willing to ne
gotiate a retraining program
based on actual requirements,
taking into consideration the tal
ents and abilities of individuals
involved.

The Klamath Falls police ar

of an accident. Police also report
ed a 10-year-old girl escaped se

A city patrolman stopped a ve

11:45 p.m. at South Eighth Street

ippeared that two passengers in

When the patrolman found that
Keluchie had no operator's li
cense, Keluchie was told to drive
to the police station.
Keluchie drove to a local tav
ern instead and he told the patrol
man he had to talk to someone.
The patrolman said he told Kelu
chie to get back in the car and go
straight to the station.
Keluchie got back into his car
and then tried to "out-run" the
squad car, according lo police
reports.
During the chase that ensued
Keluchie drove through two red
lights and narrowly missed
smashing into several cars. When
the pursuing patrolman saw that
he would have trouble slopping

Defense Department Says
Error Made
WASHINGTON (UPD - The
Defense Department has agreed
it made an error in testimony be
fore a Senate committee on the
TFX fighter plane, but said the
mistake did not affect the award
of the $5.8 billion production con
tract. The mistake in describing the
characteristics of the TFX was
made by tho Defense Department
last week during hearings con
ducted by Sen. John L. McClel-
lan, D-Ark., chairman of the Sen
ale subcommittee. The inquiry is
being made into the award of the
contract lo General Dynamics
Corp. instead of the Boeing Co.

A Klamath Falls woman, Mrs

had the first collective bargain
ing contract accepted. The con
tract went into effect Marcn 1,
immediately after the agreement
was concluded between represen
tatives of OLPN and Die board
of directors of Pioneer Memorial
Hospital in Prineville.
The nurses' group was author
ized by law two years ago to
form collective bargaining units.

Cromwell, who had been drink

paint and scratches on his car
that matched those on the other
vehicle.
Damage to the parked car was
moderate while Cromwell's vehi
cle rccived only slight damage.
In Testimony
and Defense Secretary Robert S.
McNamara are expected to be
called later in the inquiry.
In admitting its error Sunday,
the Defense Department also re
leased almost the entire test of
a 1,500-word memoradum discus
sing the merits of proposals sub
mitted by the two companies in
bidding for the contract to design
and build a single plane to meet
the requirements of both the Air
Force and the Navy.
McCIellan said Friday the mem
orandum had created a "state of
confusion" concerning the figures
in the two proposals.
The subcommittee released
Ihree sets of cost figures for the
TFX program. Aides said the
most significant was the Air
Force's adjusted data showing a
General Dynamics bid of $5,803.
000,000, and a Boeing bid of
$5..187,000,000.
This would make Boeing's bid
$415 million less than the winner.
Under the program, the team of
General Dynamics and Grumman
Aircraft Co., are expected to build
all 1.700 of the TFX planes.
Censored testimony in the hear
ing showed the Boeing plane had
superior firepower, longer range,
and up lo 200 per cent more bomb
capacity.
But "the final consideration
stemmed from the fact that the
General Dynamics and Grumman
team had extensive experience in
the development and production of
high performance, tactical and
carrier-based fighter aircraft," the
memorandum said.
The memorandum was signed
by Zuckert and Navy Secretary
Fred Korth, and was approved by
McNamara.
