Newspaper Page Textiroj Republicans Call Stockpiling Report 'Slanted' WASHINGTON (UPI)-A con troversial report on the nation's multi-billlori-dollar stockpile pro gram, charging cabinet-level favoritism during the Eisenhower administration, was branded as "slanted" today by Republicans. Sen. Stuart Symington, D-Mo., . chairman of the special stockpile investigating subcommittee, made ' the 100-page document public Wednesday night at a hastily called news conference following a series of partisan charges and counter-charges over its contents. Prominently featured in the re port was a critical review of the roles played by former Treasury Secretary George M. Humphrey lex-Commerce Secretary Sinclair Weeks, and one time cabinet member Arthur S. Flemmlng dur ing the time he served as direc tor of the Office of Defense Mo bilization. But Humphrey ap peared to be the chief target. Charge Political Motivation Republicans said the report was "politically motivated," and charged it was compiled with the aid of personnel from President Kennedy s office. Symington released the report despite a 34o-3 voting deadlock in the subcommittee against ap proving it. During a closed ses sion earlier in the day Demo cratic Sen. J. Strom Thurmond of He Was hired to mate them ... "But not to date them .What haaamnt Bachelor ploy Matchmakr ....forfhree luscious siilartl WHS? South Carolina lined up with two Republicans, Sens. J. Glenn Beall of Maryland and Clifford P. Case of New Jersey, in opposition. Symington was supported by Democratic Sens. Howard W, Cannon of Nevada and ailing I Clair Engle of California, who voted oy proxy. Ike Defends Policies Case later issued a letter from Eisenhower defending etockpil policies during his eight years in .the White House as necessary in the national interest. Beall charged the report was "slanted in its approach, lacking in objectivity and unwarranted in the attacks H makes on former government officials." He said that although the pro gram of stockpiling strategic and critical materials for emergency purposes began under former President Harry S. Truman, the report concentrated on the Eisen hower policies of 1954-1958. I am shocked the respected officials of the Eisenhower ad ministration are made the objects of unjustified charges through the use of distortions, omissions and misinterpretations," Beall said.

A PARAMOUNT BU.EASE sales of . . . commodities to the government. This was particular ly true in nickel." President Ken nedy made the same charge in the same terms when he sparked the investigation in early 1962. Charge Windfall Priflts The report charged that M. A. Hanna Co. mining and smelting enterprises, controlled by the Humphrey family, enjoyed wind fall profits" of more than $17 mil lion on a government-built nickel plant, and also profited from pre mium prices on its sales of nickel to the national stockpile of stra tegic materials. A multi-million-dollar Calumet & Hecla Co. copper contract rep resented a "clear instance of spe cial treatment and high-level offi cial interference to the advantage of one contractor and to the sub stantial disadvantage of the gov ernment," the report said. In 1955, the report said, Hum phrey, Weeks and Flemming, then head of the Defense Mobilization Office, worked out a deal favor able, to Calumet St Hecla. . Girls Caught Shoplifting Two 16-year-old girls who po lice say went on a shoplifting spree in three downtown stores Wednesday afternoon were nabbed in the third store by a clerk. One of the girls is a junior at Klamath Union High School and the other, officers said, is mar ried. Included in their loot were un derwear, a dress, shampoo, hair color and other cosmetics. They were arrested in Wool worth's Store alter being held by a clerk. Later, they admitted shoplifting in the Sears store and Payless Drugs. The girls said they stole some underwear in Sears, then moved to Payless where they stole the cosmetics. They had taken a dress and other underwear in Wool- worth's when they were caught. The two were turned over to the juvenile authorities. Temperatures during the 24 hours ending at 4 a.m. PDT to day. High Low Astoria 72 49 Baker 83 39 Brookings B7 .. Medford 93 48 Newport 63 50 N.

Flemming defended his role in I purchases and sales of strategic metals and materials for the $8.9 billion stockpiles while he wash head of the Office of Defense Mo-1 bilization. Flemming, who figured promi nently in the report made public Wednesday, headed ODM from 1953-57, and later was secretary of Health, Education and Welfare under former President Eisen hower.

Still considered a "young" Pope, Paul's actions have shown his determination to lead the church into the space age of the 20th century. sor, Pope John , XXIII, became Pope just before his 77th year. In the early days of his pontifi cate, Pope Paul promised to con tinue the Ecumenical Council started by Pope John. The second session of the council will begin Sunday.
