inforcing tank traps. They were
placing new concrete plates on
tank obstacles already built on
the east side of the wall.
Communist border guards open
ed fire Saturday morning in the

tured an elderly man as he was
trying to scramble over the barb

Police said he was arrested just
as lie reached the first of four
strands of barbed wire on the
French sector border shortly aft

carbine shots at him but he ap
parently was not hit. Three more

Suicide Bill
Gets Frown
From House
SALEM ILPU-The House re-
fused Saturday to make suicide a
crime in Oregon in order to help
officers prevent suicides.
The House objected to a feature
carrying a possible penalty for at
tempted or threatened suicide.
Oregon now has no state law
against suicide.
It would have taken 31 votes to
pass the bill. The vote was 28-29,
with three absent.
Rep. Berkeley Lent, D-Portland,
said the intent of the bill was to
give officers the authority to go
into a home or hotel where a sui
cide is threatened and stop it.
He said officers now lack such
authority, since suicide is not a
crime, and some policemen who
have tried to prevent suicides
have been threatened with suits.
Rep. Hubert Chappell, R - Port
land, said "in addition to going in
and turning off Uie gas, some
body has to restrain a person w ho
wants to commit suicide until he
gets over his despondency."
"This bill will allow authorities
to reach people and help them,"
said Rep. James Redden, D-Med-ford.
But Rep. Grace Peck. D-Port-
land, and others objected to a sec
tion of the bill making it possible
to sentence a person to a fine or
imprisonment for trying to kill
himself.
'This is a horrible bill," Mrs.
Peck said. "I can't see when any
one becomes despondent enough
to kill himself that we should pun
ish him.
Lent said the bill is similar to
Portland's present city ordinance,
and Chappel said some penalty is
needed to make suicide a crime,
although "I don't see why it has
to be so large." ,
The House spent the 97th day
of the 1963 Legislature in its first
Saturday meeting. The Senate did
not meet.
The House passed and sent to
the Senate a bill completely over
hauling the law governing local
budgeting.
A key feature is that more in
formation must be made public.
A budget message would be re
quired, salary information would
have to be given in greater detail,
and publicity would have to increase.
The new local budget law also
would:
Broaden the definition as a
municipal corporation to increase
tlie number of units that must
budget. ,'
Provide for use of modern ac
counting procedures.
Tighten various budgeting re
quirements.
Make the lax commission the
interpreting authority for the local
budget law.
And let a citizens group seek
a declaratory judgment to stop a
budget action before it is taken

SALEM (UPIi 'A new battle
was brewing here over the
drastically reduced Civil Defense
budget approved Monday, by the
House.
Gov. Mark Hatfield, charged
the cutback would result in "the
death of important Civil Defense
programs."
- Senate leaders hinted they
might increase the CD budget.
It was announced that Senate
President Ben Musa plans to con-i
tact federal CD officials in Wash-i
ington, D C. on Monday while he1
is serving as governorT-in an at
tempt to determine what coursei
federal CD officials might take.
The co-chairmen of the Ways
and Means Committee met Thurs
day with regional CD Director
Charles Ralls, who first said the
CD cutback would make Oregon
ineligible for federal matching
tunas, then indicated aid might
not be cut after all.
The House Monday approved a
0.000 CD budget for a three-per
son agency attached to the gov.
crnor's office. Hatfield had re
quested $I!)5,0O0 to finance a 20
man agency.
Political Predictions
Tinge Governor's Meet
The civil defense budget has not
yet been assigned to a Senate
committee. Tlie assignment may
hinge on what action federal offi
cials plan.
Hatfield Friday issued a press
release stating "rails has flatly
stated in writing that the proposed
throe-perso'n budget would mean
the end of the (federal matching
fund) help for Oregon."
Hatfield said tlie federal cut
back would take money from the
CD programs in Portland, and
Benton, Deschutes, Klamath. Lin
coln, Multnomah, Polk,' Umatilla
and Washington counties.
Hatfield warned of tlie CD cut
back, "If the' state closes up
shop, the counties will too."

Republicans and two Democratic
governors met Saturday to lay
plans for a summer meeting of the
national Governors Conference
But they found it difficult to;
keep their minds off the 1964 Re
public'an presidential nomination.
Arizona Gov. Paul Fannin
opened the issue Friday night by
predicting flatly that Sen. Barry
Goldwater. a longtime friend of!
hannins, will be the GOP presi
dential nominee next year.
Fannin, a 56-year-old Republi
can now in his lliird term, told a
newsman he had "doubts" a few
months ago that Goldwater could
win the nomination, but added
categorically "I now feel he will
be the candidate."
Another Republican often men
tioned for tlie nomination New
York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller.
was not present at the meetine
ot uie National Governors Confer
ence executive committee. But
Oregon Gov. Mark Hatfield, a pos-
siDie vice presidential nominee
and a Rockefeller supporter, was
due to arrive Saturday.
Conference Program
Hatfield and other governors
will begin Monday with the three-
day Western Governors' Confer
ence, featuring discussions on
traffic safety, education and juve
nile delinquency.
Fannin, the host governor of the
conference in nearby Scottsdalc,
expressed a hope that the gover
nors would not play politics.
I have tried to discourage mv
pariy from partisan politics at
this conference." said Fannin
W'c in the West do not have the
same feeling regarding national
oltice that seems to exist in the
Midwest and Eastern states.
tannin conceded that despite
r.is close personal friendship with
Goldwater, tlie senator -had not
told him yet that he would be a
candidate for the nomination.
In fact, said Fannin, Goldwater
still insists he's soing to be a
candidate for re-election as United
Slates senator next vear."
Those Present
Attending Saturday's executive
session of the National Governor's
Conference were Republican Govs.
