U.OP ORE. LIBRARY genkkfand Doctmotts Dlf. COUP. In The- Day's km By FRANK JENKINS The news today? It's a bit on the fuzzy side. It looks like we might have a railroad strike which nobody wants. The employees don't want it because it would mean losing their jobs. The rail operators don't want it because it would mean losing a lot of business to their competitors. Hie owners of rail stocks don't want it because if the trains don't run there can be no profits, and if there are no profits there can be no dividends. The commuters in the big cities don't want it. because it means grief and trou ble in getting to work. Even Jimmy Hoffa, President of the Teamsters Union, whose truck drivers would take up much of the slack in case of a rail , shutdow n, doesn't want it. He i fflys this morning that NO btRIKE is ever good for ANY ONE, at ANY time. But he pledges his union's sup port of a rail strike if there is one. It looks like a mess, doesn't it? What to talk about today? How about digit dialing? Nobody wants that either, but it looks like we're in for it. Down in the Bay Area digit dial ing is a particularly hot issue. People don't like it. They say digits are hard to remember, whereas the old word prefixes were easy to remember. So, in an effort to fix things up, a Stanford research psycholo gist steps into the breach with what he calls a simple formula for handling the situtation. It works like this: First, find the number in the direotory. Then put your finger on the number. Dial the first group of three numbers. Then look back to the directory to re fresh your memory before dial ing the second group of four numbers. While doing all this, be sure to keep your finger on the num ber in the directory. And ... be VERY sure that you keep your finger on the RIGHT number. And the right number GROUP. If your finger slips inadvertent ly over to the wrong number, or the wrong group, you aren't go ing to get your party. You 1! get SOMEBODY ELSE. And- The somebody else will prob ably be just as much annoyed as people always have been when called to the plione to answer a wrong number. And if, in the con fusion, you drop the directory on the floor and have to pick it tin and start all over again, don't be annoyed. Just write it all off as a part of the price we nave to pay for modern progress. Our early ancestors had it MUCH easier. Not any of this digit business. Not any of this modern num ber business. Not even any pre fix words. You just turned the crank to ring the bell, then you took down the receiver and when the opera tor answered you said in a friend ly, neighborly way: "Hi, Myrt, how's everything this morning?" And, after Myrt had told you how everything was out her way, you said: "Ring Aunt Emmie for me, will you?" Myrt would then ring Aunt Em mie, with no fuss or muss in Wre way of digit nonsense. If, that is, somebody else wasn't using the party line. Those were the days! JFK Given ackim WASHINGTON (UPI) - Two Cabinet members went to Capitol Hill today to argue in favor of President Kennedy's civil rights program. One was Secretary of State Dean Rusk, whose department is trying to make it easier for non white American and Asian diplo mats to get service in hotels and restaurants in the United States. Rusk was summoned to testify before the Senate Commerce Committee, which is debating the administration's proposed ban on discrimination in public accom modations, including hotels and restaurants. Rusk has said U.S. racial conflicts hurt America deeply at home and abroad. Anthony Cclcbrezzc, secretary of health, education and welfare, went before a House judiciary subcommittee, which is reviewing parts of the full civil rights pack-, age. A House education subcommit-l tec. meanwhile, hoped to vote on a bill withholding federal funds from any segregated school dis trict not implementing integration plans by 1963.

With Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev back in Moscow for the first time since the talks be gan, the Peking and Moscow del egations ended a one-day recess and conferred in morning and afternoon sessions. Authoritative Communist sources said the high negotiators assembled anew in an afternoon session at the Central Committee headquarters and it was under stood that for the first time they discussed substantive issues in the bitter Moscow-Peking dispute. At the same time a group of lesser-ranking technical experts met at the House of Receptions behind yellow walls in the Lenin Hills section of the capital. The negotiators started o u t with a three-hour morning ses sion after Tuesday's mutually agreed-upon recess that permit ted the Chinese Communist dele gates to get new instructions from Peking. In the meantime Khrushchev id ao nun Verdfet Dae- SALEM (UPI A decision on whether the State Tax Commis sion will revise timber land as sessments in five northwestern Oregon counties will be an nounced Friday, Commissioner Fred Hoefke said today. Three days of informal protest hearings on the increased assess ments for B e n 1 0 n, Columbia, Lane, Linn and Washington coun ties were expected to end today. The Tax Commission, which, earlier this year doubled the tim ber land assessments in the five county area, explained to industry representatives how the higher values were determined. Industry spokesmen presented evidence and testimony to show1 why they believed the increases were not justified. The Boards of Equalization in Benton, Columbia, and Lane coun ties lowered the Tax Commis sion s assessments, while Unn and Washington County boards upheld the commission. This week's hearings were ba sically for informational purposes. If timber owners are not satisfied at the decision to be announced Friday, they can file a formal appeal with the Tax Commission. It they lose that round they can take their case to the State Tax Court. Power Line ill Okayed WASHINGTON UPI - The House Interior Committee today approved a Senate-passed bill de signed to pave the way for con struction o( transmission lines to connect federal power systems in the Pacific Northwest and Cali fornia. But as approved by the com mittee, the bill earned an amend ment to require specific congres sional approval lor federal con struction of lines outside the Pacific Northwest. The voice vote committee ap proval cleared the way for the bill to go to the House floor. If passed by the Houe as amended the bill might not be acceptable to the Senate. That would require a conference committee to iron out differences. The amendment was offered by Rep. Jack Weslland, R-Wash. Opposition to the bill in its pres ent form was pointed up by a telegram from California Gov. Ed mund G. Brown.

The talks resumed today under the cloud of new Peking charges that the Soviet Union was poison ing Soviet-Chinese relations. Non-Communist circles gained the impression the Chinese Com munists would like to provoke a formal breakdown in the talks. But the Russians apparently arc not willing to halt the talks unless (he Chinese walk out of the ne gotiations.

The only employes that would stay on the job include a hand ful of trainmasters, general yard masters and traffic employes. If a itrike is called this eve ning the Southern Pacific would iprobably stop passenger service as soon as passengers reach Jo- c;S destinations. Unions involved are the SUNA, Switchman's Union of North America, BLFand E, Brotherhood of Locomotive -Firemen and En gineers; Brotheniood of Locomo tive Engineers and the ORC and B, Order of fiailway Conductors and Brakcmen. Most of the area lumber man ufacturer firms ship about 90 per cent by rail and would have to close down in the event of a strike. This would affect hun dreds of local lumber employes. Officials at Modoe Lumber Com pany and Klamath Lumber and Box told the Herald and News they could operate only a few days after a rail strike. The Thomas Lumber Com pany which employs about 80 men also ships largely by rail and could not continue operation for more than a day, a company offi cial informed thr Heralu aud News. Weyerhaeuser with its more than 1,000 employes would also have to close operations in the event of a rail strike. Weyer haeuser is presently closed, how ever, due to the shutdown in the Northwest lumber unions dispute.
