In The-
Day's lews
By FRANK JENKINS
From Washington:
The United States took steps
yesterday to RETALIATE against
the European Common .Market
for its sharp increase last year in
tariffs on U.S. poultry products.
The European Common Market,
ceftposed of France, West Ger
many, Italy, Belgium, The Neth
erlands and Luxembourg, raised
its tariffs on our poultry products
irom 4.9 cents per pound to 13.43
cents.
That's quite a bounce. The re
sult of it, according to Christian
Hcrtcr, chief U.S. trade negotia
tor, has been an unreasonable
restriction on U.S. poultry. He
estimates the loss to our poultry
producers at $46 million a year.
So-
He says
Something will have to be done
about it.
What to do?
Well, Mr. Herter says, the U.S.
has no choice but to retaliate. So
he has picked out a list of our
imports from the Common Mar
ket countries, and on the items
in the list we will RAISE OUR
TARIFFS on the principle of tit
for tat.
The items?
One of them is wine.
Last year, Mr. Herter says, we
Imported from the Common Mar
ket countries wine worth $22.4
million, and brandy worth $12.1
million.
Other imported items were
trucks and buses worth $14.8
million, film except motion pic
tures worth $13.6 million, and a
wide range of miscellaneous
items such as gelatin, theobro
mine, dextrine, potato starch, cig
arette papers, stainless steel
cloth, scissors and shoes, Roque
fort cheese and electric razors.
Our Mr. Herter estimates the
loss to American poultrymen
from the higher Common Mar
ket tariffs at $46 million a year.
He estimates that the retaliation
tariffs that he proposes will cost
Common Market exporters to the
United Slates the tidy sum of
$111.5 million, i
Hmmmmmmmmmmm.
It's at least interesting to learn
that there's ONE American who
believes that when we do some-1
thing we ought to do it in a way
to SHOW A PROFIT.
In recent years, it has seemed
to a lot of us, too many Ameri
cans in high office have tended
to look upon a profit as some
thing SINFUL.
First Lady Gives Birth
To Premature Tiny Son
10T1S AFB, Mass. (UPP-Mrs.
Jacqueline Kennedy, wife of the
President, gave birth today to a
4-pound, 10's-ounce son at t h e
Otis Air Force Base Hospital.
The baby, five and one-half
weeks premature, was born at
10:15 a.m. PDT while the Presi-,
dent was en route from Washing
ton by jet.
Presidential news secretary
Pierre Salinger reported that thei
baby's condition was "good" but
that he was placed in an oxygen
ten1.. He also reported that Mrs.
Kennedy was in good condition.
The child was th3 third born to
President and Mrs. Kennedy and
their second son.
Salinger reported that Mrs. Ken-'
nedy went from the Kennedy's
rented summer home to a stable
area owned by the Kennedy fam
ily near Osterville this morn
ing. However, she returned home
immediately and Dr. John W
Walsh, a Washington obstetrician
who has been staying in the area,
was notified while she was still
en route home.
The baby was born by Caesa-
rean section as were the other
two children.
Walsh was at the Kennedy
house on Squaw Island off Cape
Cod when Mrs. Kennedy arrived.
He decided immediately that she
shouid go to the Otis Air Force
Base Hospital.
Mrs. Kennedy left the house by
helicopter, accompanied by
Walsh, for the trip to the hospi
tal. She was taken to the sur-i
eery ward immediately.
The President, still at the White
House, was notified by telephone
that his wife had gone to the hos

Guard Fund
Claims Filed
By Official
SALEM UPI -The first of
several claims against bonding
companies as the result of the
misappropriation of Oregon Na
tional Guard funds has been filed
by the attorney general's office,
it was disclosed Tuesday.
Investigations into National
Guard financial operations follow
ing the death of Adj. Gen. Alfred
Hintz last year led to the dis
covery of the misappropriations.
Report of the irregularities in
the National Guard accounts was
made to the Oregon Legislature
this year by Secretary of State
Howell Appling Jr.
The action against the bonding
companies was a result of the
find:ngs of Appling's auditors.
The first claim was for $2,470
and was filed against an insur
ance company which held a so
called "position bond" over Na
tional Guard staff elficers author
ized to draw checks and claims
on state funds, Asst. Atty. Gen
Peter Herman said.
Herman said the bonding com
pany was being asked to replace
$2,470 drawn in false claims for
rations in order to provide liquor
and other goods for official
parties at Camp Clatsop (now
Camp Rileal in 1957. 1958 and 1959
The claim filed with the bonding
firm said the money apparently
was drawn by one or more of
our or five high-ranking officers
covered by the bond but that it
has not been determined which
one drew the money.
An auditor's statement filed with
the claim quoted one officer as
saying the false draft in 1959 was
ordered by Hintz.
A'ty. Gen. Robert Thornton said
the state could claim up to So.OOO
on the personal bond of Hintz and
$5,000 on the blanket policy
against the others.
tal, the baby already had been
delivered 25 minutes earlier.
Awaiting the President was his
sister, Mrs. Stephen Smith, at the
hospital.
Assisting Walsh, who also was
the obstetrician when John Jr.
w as born Nov. 25, 1960, were Col.
Paul H. Stavig, Sioux Falls, S.D.,
Maj. Frank Mahon, Panama,
Okla., the anesthetist; Capt. Wil
liam Jablonski, Boston, and Maj.
Leonard Cobb, Longview, 111,
The circumstances were
almost a parallel to the birth of
John Jr.
In that instance, Kennedy, the
president-elect, was en route to
Palm" Beach, Fla., on a Thanks
giving evening. He landed at
Palm Beach to be informed that
Mrs. Kennedy was taken to the
hospital.
The President learned in the
air on his way back to the capi
tal that he was the father of a
fine looking, healthy boy, born
prematurely.
Washington Birth Planned
Mrs. Kennedy had been expect
ed to give birth to her third child
on a set date at Walter need
Army Medical Center in Washing
ton. The idea was to insure more
security and more privacy for the
First Lady.
She has been vacationing since
July 3, however, at a leased sum
mer home on Squaw Island near
the Kennedy compound at Hyan-
nis. Her two children, Caroline.

Mrs. Kennedy will be the first
President's wife in 70 years to
give blrtb to a baby. The last
White House baby was born on
Sept. 9, 1893, to Grover Cleveland.
Mrs. Kennedy has had a history
of hardships in pregnancies and

Rusk Sees Great
For Atomic Test Ban Pact
MOSCOW (UPP Secrelary of,
State Dean Rusk predicted today on measures against surprise at
the nuclear test ban treaty he tack with a non-aggression pact
signed with Britain and the So
viet Union Monday would receive
great support m the United
States.
Rusk saw off a senatorial dele
gation and then flew to Leningrad
for a day's break between hisj
talks on further cold war issues
with Soviet officials. The senators,
here for the signing, were return
ing to Washington.
The senators were equally en
thusiastic about the partial lest
ban treaty, the first control meas
ure agreed upon between East and
West since the start of the nuclear
age 18 years ago. They said U.S.
interests were "well protected" by
the pact.
Democratic Sens. Hubert
Humphrey of Minnesota and John
Sparkman of Alabama, predicted
President Kennedy would get 80i
of the Senate's 100 votes for the
treaty far more than the two-l
thiras majority needed for ratifi
cation. To Appear Before Senate
Rusk told newsmen before leav
ing for Leningrad that he is look
ing forward to the Senate hear
ings on the treaty next week. He
is scheduled to appear to explain
the agreement to ban nuclear tests
in the air, outer space, and un
der water.
"The hearings will, 1 am sure
clarify doubts in various quarters
Rusk said. "It will merit and re
ceive great support."
Rusk will return Thursday and
then go on to Premier Nikita S
Khrushchev's Black Sea villa to
continue his discussions of cold
war issues. Diplomatic sources
said the break would enable him
to file a full report on his session
Tuesday with Foreign Minister
Andrei Gromyko and receive in
structions from President Kenne
dy for his meeting with Khrush
chev.
U.S. officials said Tuesday's
talks were "very good and busi
nesslike." but they stressed that
both sides held firmly to their
positions.
Ways To Ease Tension
The talks are aimed at finding
possible areas of agreement be
tween East and West on measures
to ease international tension now
that accord has been' reached on
a partial nuclear test ban.
Informed sources said the talks
thus far have indicated that mea
sures to prevent surprise attack
afford the best hope of agreement
One of these measures, brought
up by Khrushchev in a speech
last month, calls for stationing
troop inspectors on foreign terri
tory to guard against military
buildups. The West has shown in
terest in this, the sources said

2-District Plan
Present KUHS Boundary
Will Be Dividing Line
In a surprise move Tuesday
night the Klamath County School
District and Klamath Union High
School boards of directors joined
hands and agreed they would
both submit maps to the county
court with the county divided into
two separate school districts with
the present KU boundary as the
dividing line.
This plan; with anv minor
changes necessary, would divide
the county essentially into metro
and rural school districts with
equalization automatically built
in by the application of the rural
school law.
The members of the elementary
school board would not go along
w ith tins plan because they feared
gross inequities if the rural
school law is ever abandoned
by the slate legislature.
It would seem that the reor
ganization decision now rests with
the county court, which, acting as
boundary board, could cither
implement a plan on its own ini
tiative or turn it over to the will
of the voters. Maps showing the
boundary preferences of the three
school boards are to be submit
ted to the court no later than
Aug. 9.

the court, the elementary board
explained it favors a reorganiza
