I think, improve the i ' rules ot committee procedure particularly committees engaged in investigative work. One distinct LET'S ALL VOTE . Charles V. Stanton All Roseburs; voters should go to the polls tomorrow to pass upon the revised city budget. We are well aware that even a 50 per cent turnout would be exceptional, yet the importance of the election deserves the attention of The citv budeet has been beaten twice. At the second election it was resubmitted in its original form. The budg et committee felt that reductions would impair operational efficiency so asked for reconsideration. Voters refused the committee's request for approval. Following the second vote the committee reluctantly applied the pruning shears. Unless the revised budget, is adopted at tomorrow's election, the city will be in a most critical financial plight. The total budget amounts to approximately a half-million dollars. But almost $280,000 in revenue will come from sources other than local taxation. Chief items of revenue other than taxation include money received from the State of Oregon for street work together with parking meter receipts. Inadequate Tax Base When Roseburg's boom started the budget was about one-tenth its present size. Each year the city has been able to increase its tax base only by six per cent. For the new fiscal year the tax base is $69,467.67. Imagine trying to run the city today on that amount! Deducting anticipated revenue from the total of esti mated expenditures, the amount needed to be raised is $241,996. We can raise $69,457.67 without authorization. Then we have bond payment and interest, the millage levy for the office of city manager, and millage levy for pub lic library, all of which are outside the six per cent lim itation, making a total of $118,687.67. That leaves $123, 308.33 to be raised outside the six per cent limitation. Should the budget be defeated tomorrow, the City of Rose burg must somehow try to get along with $123,308.33 less income than the city council and budget committee con tend is an absolute minimum. You can figure from that just the predicament we will be in if the budget gets whip ped again. That's just one reason why every citizen, in terested in preserving the city's safety, progress and pres tige, should get to the polls. Some voters may have the idea that the city should bo spending less on streets and traffic control and put some of that money into general operation. That might be a solution if the law allowed it. But the law partic ularly specifies that all traffic meter money must go into channels of traffic control and improvement. Also all street money received from the State of Oregon must, by law, go Into street repairs, maintenance and improvement. This revenue cannot be used for general expenses. Cufs Have Beeri Deep Obeying the mandate from the voters, the budget com mittee has slashed deeply into the proposed list of expen ditures. The amount to be raised by taxation has been cut almost 20 per cent, which, considering that the com mittee said a slash couldn't be made without impairment of services, is a very considerable reduction. Gone are such items as municipal band fund, mosquito and weed control, civilian defense, sewer survey, railroad crossing lights, Peewee baseball, park improvements, ten nis courts, needed equipment and supplies, library books and many other items, including some cuts from salaries proposed in the first budget. It should be evident, we believe, that the budget com ing before voters tomorrow is far too low to meet the de mands of a growing municipality. We will have to do without a lot of things we need. To put the city back on Its horse-and-buggy-days tax base would be a financial catastrophe. Yet that is just what will happen if the budget fails again, unless we can get a further extension of time for still another effort and that is highly improbable. We believe the majority of Roseburg's citizens want efficient city government. Rut they certainly can't ex pect any degree nf efficiency if they fail to go to the polls Friday and give their approval to the proposed budget. improvement which would result from the adoption of this resolu tion would be uniformity in pro cedure throughout all of the com mittees of the House. A: present some of the committees have adopted fixed standards and oth ers have not. Among other things, the Scott resolution seeks to clarify and pro tect the rights of witnesses. In theory, these protections should make it possible for an investi gating committee to obtain valu able and needed information from persons who might refuse' to say anything at aU (by pleading the "fifth amendment") unless provided such protection. I think Congressman Scott and the mem bers of the special subcommittee, of which he is chairman, have done a good job of writing the resolution. However, after study ing it and some similar proposals pending in the Senate, I have two sharply conflicting doubts. First, will the proposed new rules ac tually eliminate the possibility of injustice being inflicted upon individuals? Second, if that desir ed objective is achieved, will the result be to render committee in vestigations ineffective to the point of being useless?1 Recently I read an article on this subject written by a member nf the British House of Lords. Ap parently the British Parliament struggled with the problem back during World War I days. The re sult was the passage of the "Trib unals of Enquiry Evidence Act of 1921." I would like to know more about that Act and other British experience. The question of chang ing committee rules is an extrem ely important one. It is my duty as a member of the Rules Com mittee to equip myself with as much information as I can obtain on the subject. There is, unfortun ately, woefully little written record to depend upon. The matter has rarely had Congressional consider ation. It seems to me that a more intimate knowledge of the exper ience of the British with this prob lem would be invaluable. Upon inquiry I learned that the British writer would not only he willing to see me and discuss the subject, he also has agreed to ar range appointments with others in England who are in direct contact with the problem. Thereupon. I ar ranged for a "hitch-hike" ride to England and back on one of our military transport planes. The trip will be made during the week fol lowing the Fourth of .luly when there will be very little activity her in the House. , Senators. As it has stood since adopted in 1789, the Constitution has held that ' each house may determine the rules of its proceedings, pun ish its members for disorderly be havior, and, with the concurrence of two-thirds, expel a member." This point is pertinent today be cause: 1. In Wisconsin, a grass roots movement called the "Joe Must Go Club" is seeking the ouster from the Senate of Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy by the recall method. Although it failed in an initial at tempt to obtain sufficient signa tures on petitions, it will try again this fall after the November elec tion. But the recall, which Oregon in 1908 was the first state to adopt, is a power given the. electorate in a number of states for removing only state and local officials not uiose elected to Congress. Hence even if a second round of petitioning in Wisconsin is success- iui, it is probable the 'Joe Must Go Clun" can do little to unseat McCarthy other than demonstrate his unpopularity in many Quarters of his home state prior to 19S8 wnen McCarthy comes up for re election. 2. In the Senate, where the pow er to oust McCarthy lies, open opposition to him has increased only slightly on the majority (Re publican) side. Sen. Ralph Flan ders (R.Vt.) has called for Mc Carthy to be stripped of his com mittee chairmanship, and Sen. John Cooper (R-Ky.) has praised Flanders' demand. But the voice of party authority of GOP Flour Leader William Knowland (R-Cal.) has criticized the move, and only silence has enshrouded the views of the other 44 Republicans. To suppose that the Senate will suddenly rise to its responsibility and take a critical look at the behavior of McCarthy as Article 5 of the Constitution commands is. to wink at practical politics as it is now played in the capital and to entertain a vain hope about the attitude of most senators toward their nation;l responsibilities. The Senate, one must under stand, is a fairly tightly knit or ganization of successful politician: wno vary widely in pnuosopny but personally enjoy one another's company and share the belief that being a United States senator ii just about the world's best occu pation, which it is. Senators die and are defeated, but seldom do they resign. Success in the Senate is a com plicated formula which basically combines two necessary skills: 1. Ability to be re-elected back home (and the greater that ability, the more respect it commands in the Senate); this in turn leads to seniority, which is the most sacrra of observances in Congress and eventually finds a veteran law maker assuming the leadership of a committee or even tne pany j highest political councils. 2. Ability to "get things done" for the folks back home, which is the most tangible evidence a man can muster of his usefulness in Congress whether it is getting a dam built or dredging a har bor. Most often this involves get ting bills enacted, a feat of con siderable difficulty on many oc casions which is eased only by the lawmaker's ability to get along well with his colleagues in the so ciability of the cloakrooms. Both parts of this success for mula are interwoven. A senator gains greater strength in his home state as he accomplishes more to the satisfaction of his constitu ents, which leads to re-election, which leads to seniority and pres tige in the Senate, which contrib utes to getting more things done. . While this formula sometimes flies apart in the uncertain game of American politics, it is wideiy observed by successful practition ers, what is significant is mat tne constitutional concept of senators being held responsible for the be havior of other senators runs coun ter to the heart of this political suc cess formula. The clash between the demands of being a sober judge of one's colleagues while trying to endear them to support your pet bills and projects is an impossible one which senators should not be asked to endure. As the Army-McCarthy hearings demonstrated afresh, senators seem unable to assess the behav ior of their colleagues objective ly for every move they make they know may have repercus sions yet unforeseen, either in en dangering their own political ca reers in the Senate or the good name of their party in the eyes oi the voters at large. A change in the Constitution to give the right of recall to the voters of each state who may be convinced that they picked a lem on lor a legislator in the previous congressional election would put the responsibility where it counts and where it could effectively be exercised.

Way Cleared For Cordon To Get Chairmanship WASHINGTON lid . The way apparently is clear now for Sen. Cordon (R-Ore) to become chair man of the Senate Interior Com mittee. Sen.

Instead Milli kin will retain his chairmanship PORTLAND (AT) Richard L. Neuberger, Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate, said here he had written Sen.

I hope, how ever, to be able to report some tnings of interest the week follow ing as a result of the trip. Most of the appropriation bills were cleared by both Houses of Congress and sent lo the Presi dent before the end of the 'isca! year June 30. The others will be completed soon. Adjournment is being rather freely predicted for July 31, as provided in the Legis lative Reorganization Act. This country is planning to with hold further financial and materi al aid from France and Italy until they approve the long-delayed European Defense Treaty. Such a bar may be written into the pending 53 5 billion aid measure sought by the Eisenhower admin istration. This reflects an impatience in Congress and the Administration Pope Confers Title On . Ex-Oregon Priest In The Day's News (Continued from Page One) NEW YORK (fl - "Wanted: Bright, responsible young men for indoor jobs in pleasant surround ings. Starting salaries $100-$13S weekly. Promotion possibilities un limited." A newspaper ad like that would sound liks the answer to a col lege graduate's prayer. . . r.ut jobs with these advantages are practically going begging to day in the nation's four-bilUon-doi-lar-a-year drug industry. H is faced with a growing shortage of trained pharmacists. "Enrollment in the country's 75 pharmacy colleges has dropped 25 per cent," said Carl Willing ham, secretary-treasurer of the National Assn. of Chain Drug Stores. "They graduated ' 5,000 pharmacists five years ago, only 4,000 last year." This falling enrollment has led the American Assn. of Collegos o Pharmacy to issue 150.000 book lets to high school career advisers citing the opportunities in the corn er drugstore. Thq United States has some 105. 000 registered pharmacists 1 ojt of 10 is a woman of whom about 80,000 are employed in the nj tion's 55,000 drug stores. The rest work in hospitals, government bureaus, research projects or for manufacturing firms. But 1 steadily increasing popu lation and growing interest in health have spurred a need for more, not fewer pharmacists. And tlit demand is for better trained men. It Is estimated that more Mian half the drugs used most often in prescriptions today were unknown before the Second World War. A generation ago druggists worked an average of 60 hours a week. Tha,t has been cut lo 48 hours in most areas, to 40 in a number of large cities. "In most states a young man can become a registered pharma cist after four years of college study and a year ot internship u, a drug store," said Willingham. "And he doesn't have lo pound the pavement looking for work. "The Jobs are there waiting. And there are plenty ot openings at the U There is a big need for drill store managers. A nun can work nimiseit up to tne JoO.ooo a year class, or higher, just as he can in any otlier field. "Owners of pharmacies make more money on the average than either dentists or lawyers." He cited the case of George B. Burrus, a soda fountain clerk who studied pharmacy in his spare time, now is president of tne Peoples Durg Store chain, which has 51 stores and does an annual 51 million dollar volume.

While industry leaders have the welcome mat out for girl students in pharmacy, they don't expect the ladna to solve the current short ge. "They work an average of four ears then get married," said Willingham. Keeping the soda fountains manned is a bout as much of a problem as keeping the proserin, tion counter staffed.

France particularly has stirred us to the point of exas peration with its endless dodging of the EDC issue. Furthermore, it is plainly within America's power to give or hold back aid as it chooses, and we have a perfect right to attach reasonable conditions to the ex tension of such assistance. For example, we may fairly ask for assurances that our money will be well spent. Yet the current plan appears lo exceed reasonable bounds and to introduce into our relations with two long-standing allies an ele ment of compulsion. The United States would be trying to force Italian and French ratification of EDC by the threat of financial dis inheritance. Diplomacy by compulsion amounts to a contradiction in terms. There is serious doubt that it is ever effective in anv real sense, except where a tremendous difference in power exists between tne negotiating countries. Suppose this plan went throuah and the French and Italians re sponded by ratifying EDC so they could remain eligible for aid. Everything we know indicates a substantial distaste for EDC in France. Couid we therefore expect that the kind of cooperation the French would give the project would be much worth having? The chances are great that il would not. An unwilling partner is seldom worth drawing into an en terprise. Compulsion as a device of di plomacy suggests the failure of all other means. But is that really the case? Have we aetuallv e. hausted all approaches to the dif ficult problem of weaving Itaiy and France into an effective Euro pean defense system? A wiser counsel would seem to recommend continued efforts at persuasion. It is still conceivable that in the light of new lessons learned about the Russians at Geneva, the French and Italians may be led to see more clearly the metit in EDC. furthermore, America and Bri- At the dock.
