UPI Telephoto Reds Label Moon Idea 'Premature' MOSCOW (UPI) A commen tator for the government organ izvestia said today President Ken nedy s suggestion of a joint U.S. Soviet moonshot "seems some Svhat premature." Stanislav Kondrashov's article, published by the magazine Za Ru bezhom, was the first mention of the moonshot proposal that had been published here. The Soviet press reported Kennedy's U. N, speech, in which the suggestion was made, but edited out all ref erence to it. , "American, propaganda ... Is bushing to the forefront the Presi Rent's idea of sending a joint Eoviet-U.S. team to the moon, Kondrashov wrote. "In lavish headlines American newspapers describe the gran, diose character of the project, al though it seems it is somewhat premature." The fact that the Soviet press edited out mentions of the (noon1 prosposal from its reports on the Kennedy speech had led Western observers to predict a cautious or cool reaction from the Kremlin. Premier Nikita Khrushchev also has been silent on the proposals, although In the past he has in dorsed the principle of space cooperation. The commentator said Ken-, nedy's suggestion took Washing ton officials by surprise. President Views Coast On Brief Aerial Tour Venetian gondolas are black, following an edict of 1562. 1 TODAY! CATES OPIN 7i00 P.M. By United Press International President Kennedy took a brief aerial tour of Oregon's scenic coastal dunes Friday and had a bird's-eye view of the site of the newly - authorized Rogue River Project. He flew over those areas on his way from Tacoma, Wash., to Red ding, Calif. His guides for the journey were Oregon's Democratic .Sons. Wayne Morse and Maureen Neuberger, and freshman Rep. Robert Duncan, in whose district both areas are located. The flight came after an earlier 30-minute . visit to the Tongue Point Naval Station near Astoria at which the President announced plans for Defense Department and Coast Guard facilities at the base. Duncan told reporters Kennedy believes efforts to convert the dunes to a national seashore arc important and should proceed. But Duncan said Kennedy took no stand on the differing bills that have been introduced in Con gress. One bill, sponsored by Dun can, would take 30 miles of shore south from Florence and result in land costs of $1.5 million Mrs. Neuberger has proposed a $10 million plan that would run 40 miles, all ti e way to Coos Bay Clouds Close In Kennedy viewed the area only for two or three minutes because clouds closed in over the dunes But he had a chance to see the low, silvery sandbanks rising from the sea. And he saw, behind the dunes, the two long, thin fresh water lakes against the gray-tan background of the Coast Mountain Range. The lakes, Woahink and SilU'Oos, also figure in the enn- rovcrsy. Mrs. Ncuberger's hill in cludes a sizeable amount of land on their shores'. Kennedy's Air Force jet trans port plane then turned inland for OSCAR WINNER GREGORY PECK "TO 'KILL A MOCKINGBIRD" CO-riATURI "SEVEN SEAS TO CALAIS" a flight over the Rogue River Proj cct, which will involve a power dam at Lost Creek and flood con trol and recreation dams at Elk Creek and Applegatc. The esti mated eventual cost is $77.2 mil lion. Earlier in the day, the President brought jubilation to a crowd of about 6,000 people at Astoria when he announced the federal govern ment plans to make use of the abandoned Tongue Point facility. He said the Defense Department will establish a weapons system acquisition management school early next year to train senior civilian and military personnel. The Coast Guard is scheduled to follow with a helicopter rescue base. i The announcement was made just before Kennedy took off for Astoria from Tacoma, but most of the croud had not heard about it until he arrived. "This is wonderful news," said Harry Swanson, head of the As toria delegation which had as sembled to try to convince the President of the usefulness of the base. Mayor Harry Steinbock added. "I am very much pleased. This base is an ideal location for the purpose suggested." Republican Gov. Mark Hatfield who had some advance notice of the plan, commented, "I welcome this news . . . because Tongue Point has been an example of waste of the worst order." President Greets Crowd Kennedy was welcomed at As toria by Hatfield and most major Democratic office holders in the state. He was scheduled to stay only 15 minutes, but after a brief meeting with city officials, he walked over to the wire cftjc which held back the crowd and began shaking hands. He walked with a limp, indicat ing that his back was bothering him, but it didn't affect his spirits as he smiled, talked, and used both hands, to greet the onlookers. fit Wwi if rrnmn? 'JUL 22$ MOSCOW M'PII A 2S-vear Jill I University of California student IDfis? 1a tC has been sentenced to three years lUlltflWI in prison in connection with the 1 1 death of a Russian citizen, ac cording to the U. S. embassy. He is Peter Landermann of Riv erside, Calif., who was in Russia with a group of tourists. Landermann was sentenced Fri day after a trial in Minsk which began on Sept. 25. The Russian. Leonid Popov, was killed Aug. 15 as he walked his motorcycle along the Minsk-Moscow highway. Landermann testified at his trial that, while driving a Volks wagen omnibus loaded with other tourists, he was blinded by the lights of an oncoming car and struck Popov. The Russians charged Lander mann with speeding and not using his lights properly the embassy spokesman said. A member of the embassy, James Klemstine, attended the trial. The embassy made an appeal for leniency in view of Lander mann's age and inexperience with Soviet driving conditions. Another appeal will be made for clemency, the embassy spokes man said. After the accident Landermann was detained in a tourist camp near Minsk. The rest of the U.S. tourist party continued on to Mos cow. At Riverside, Calif., Lander- mann's mother said she hoped the Soviet Union would suspend or lighten his three year prison sentence. Mrs. H. Lee Landermann said she received a letter from her 22- year-old son, who wrote the death resulted from an "unavoidable ac cident." He said he struck the victim after being blinded by the lights of an oncoming car. I'm sure Pete's greatest con cern is how this is upsetting us." she said. "My son is a good driv- and he said the accident was absolutely unavoidable." ar MONDAY GREAT BOOKS DISCUSSION CI.LII, 7:30 p.m., Plato, Apology, Crilo, City Library basement.

C, omnium it Calenclt Los Angeles LOS ANGELES (UPD-Temper- aturcs soared above 100 degrees Saturday for the fourth straight day of record-breaking heat and the second longest heat wave on record. The thermometer reached 108 degrees at 12:30 p.m. PDT only four dgrees below the all-time record of 110 set on Sept. 1. 1955. That 110-degree mark also was the first of six days of 100-plus wave on record. More of the same is predicted for Sunday, but the Weather Bu reau said off-shore breezes may dissipate the heat wave early next week. There is a possibility of thundcrshowors in mountain areas Monday. However, the weatherman said there was little hope of relief as long as night temperatures re mained high. The temperature Friday night never dropped below 83 degrees and was the hottest night of the year. Saturday's high broke the pre vious record of 96 reported in 1891 and again in 1918 and 1956. Last year on this date the higfi was a balmy 72 and the overnight low was 60. San Diego, Calif., which Friday reeled under the double onslaught of its worst smog attack coupled with 104-degree heat, Saturday re corded 99 degrees at noon PDT, but there was no smog. The rec ord for the date w as 94 degrees set in 1918. The searing heat in Los Ange les had at least one good effect it broke the inversion layer that holds the smog in the Los Ange les basin and released the eye stinging stuff to the upper atmos phere.

"He was to arrive Saturday or Sunday, I'm not sure which," said the local Negro leader. King issued an ultimatum to the steel city Friday declaring that unless substantial racial progress had been made by Mon day, he would renew mass pro test marches. A similar campaign headed by King last spring resulted in more than 2,000 arrests. Calls Threat "Outrage" City Councilman E. C. Overton called King's threat an "outrage." He said it would undermine any chance of peacefully settling our problems. Another local Negro leader. Rev. J. L. Ware, said he hoped Negroes would not have to resume mass demonstrations. What it will accomplish, Lord in heaven only knows," he said. Ware said he thought the two racial troublcshooters Prssident1 Kennedy lias sent to Birming- for last Sunday, but was broken tween whites and Negroes. ham former Army secretary lup by police before it got under Kenneth Koyall and ex-West Point way, football coach Earl Blaik - are New demonstrations were also making a sincere effort. threatened at City Hall in Xew I think they should be given; Orleans, where about 20 Negro time to prove their worth," Ware said. Ware said, however, Negroes were not satisfied with the prog ress being made. "Being happy and satisfied is out of the question," Ware added. "Maybe there is a spark of hope, though." Four Negroes Killed The latest Birmingham crisis was touched off by the desegrega tion of three city schools earlier this month, and, a church bomb ing which followed. Four young Negro girls were killed in the church blast. Negro leaders in Shrcveport, La., plan to lead separate march es around their churches Sunday In memory of the bombing. The separate marches will be in lieu of a mass march that was planned students were arrested during a segregation protest Friday. At Oxford Saturday, Negro: Cleve McDowell was convicted of carrying a pistol to class while attending the University of Miss issippi. McDowell, who was ex pelled last Tuesday because of the charge, said Saturday he armed himself because he had no official protection and thought his life was in danger. A justice of the peace court fined McDowell $100. The Negro youth's attorney said McDowell would appeal both the court con viction and his expulsion from the school. In another racial development, privileges of inmates at Great Meadows Prison at Comslock, N.Y., were suspended because ol noting that broke out Friday be Guards Injured Prison officials said about 450 inmates were involved in the riot ing, which lasted for 90 minutes. Eighteen inmates and five guards were reported injured. King issued his ultimatum to the city of Birmingham Friday night from Richmond, Va., where the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, which he heads, was holding its annual convention. King demanded: That an immediate start ot good faith negotiations be made between political leaders and the leaders of the Negro community. That the mayor and City Coun cil issue a public statement call ing for compliance with the law. That the city ask Gov. George C. Wallace to remove state troopers lrom Birmingham. That the city hire Negro po licemen. He said the demonstrations would be "bigger and more de termined" than ever. Hi SALLi C0IOTINUES AT OUR ANNEX -812 KLAMATH AVE.
