Talent Project Exclusion
Termed 'Betrayal', By Sen.
Neuberger In Senate Talk
WASHINGTON The admin
istration's decision not to budget
money for starting construction of
the Talent Irrigation Project, Sen.
' Neuberger (D-Ore) said Wednes
day, "constitutes a Betrayal ot ine
DeoDle of Southern Oregon."
In a speech prepared for the
Senate, the newly elected senator
declared:
"The neople of Jackson County
were sold a mirage for political
purposes.
The Talent Project, in the Rogue'
River Basin, would develop stor
age to water 8,640 acres of arid
land and supplement the water
supply ot anotner ,&o acres. Also
included is a 16,000-kilowatt power
plant: The project, estimated to
cost 23 million, was authorized by
Congress last .summer. -
Neuberger, in his maiden speech
in the Senate, said Republicans
staged celebrations during last
fall's political campaign "herald
ing" the Talent Project.
"Yet, having used this important
project, which has the support of
Orcgonians of all political persua
sions, as a campaign device to
drum up Republican voles," he de
clared, "the administration has
now evidently abandoned interest
in the project as demonstrated by
the fact that no funds have been
included in the budget for construc
tion of either irrigation works or
the power plant."
Neuberger said both he and Sen.
Morse (Ind-Ore) bave urged the
Department of Interior to request
project funds and "will spare no
effort to try .o redeem tlie broken
promises which the administration

existing three-man stale Board of
Conciliation if he wanted to.
The 1953 anti - picketing law,
which the Democrats want re
pealed, also created the office of
state labor examiner. He conducts
elections to determine whether em
ployes wish to join a union. This
part also would be repealed by
the Democrats.
The Senate has a similar repeal
bill, but it is lying quiet while the
Slate Supreme Court is deciding
whether it is unconstitutional.
At Wednesday night's hearing
the Senate Labor and Industries
Committee will take Its first look
at the unemployment compensa
tion problem. It is probably the
most complicated issue before the
Legislature. , ,
Members of the Governor's Ad
visory Committee will be on hand
to explain their findings.
The Department of Agriculture
asked the Legislature to make sev
eral Important changes In the
dairy laws. - i
One of these new bills would
eliminate B. and C;grades"in fluid
-milk, and make it illegal to arm
water to milk. '
Ending the B and C grades would
be following, six larger cities In
Oregon which have their own miut
insnection services. ,
Sneaker Ed Geary said he might
abolish the afternoon sessions in
order to give committees more
time to do their work. There isn't
anything to do at the . aftorwin
sessions, anyway.
Sessions now are held by both
houses at 10 a. m., and 2 p. m.
daily. ...

beginning July 1 should contain

To Start Feb. 3
The YMCA annual membership
drive gets under way ten. 3, re
ports Director -fton Naden. The
drive will last through Feb. 14,
Chairman of the drive, William
D. Green Jr., Wednesday listed the
four captains who will be working
under him. 'They are: ira uyru,
Bill Garrison, Harry Hill and Mrs.
Frank Brown. Mrs. Brown will
head the group' of women work
ers.
The general chairman and cap
tains will meet Friday at the
YMCA office in Roseburg to select
their complement of workers.
Green said 36 men and 18 women
would be needed to carry out' the
work of the drive.
The goal In the campaign will
be to secure 400 renewals and new
memberships.
Total money needed is $3,000 ac
cording to-Green. He said this is
the amount needed to meet budget
requirements which include addi-
tion of one new youth service.
Green said the "Y" intends to
hire a fulltime summer director
for a summer recreation program.
The summer program will bo
climaxed by the summer .camp
In August. It has been tentatively
planned to hold the camp at Dia
mond Lake again this year. Mean
while, the "if" is negotiating to
purchase a campsite on the north
fork of the fcmitn Kiver tor suc
ceeding years. It will not serve as
a camp this year.
Director Don Naden of the Rose
burg "Y" said extension of serv
ices for 1955 means more money
which the "Y" hopes to raise from
persons interested in the program,
"Memberships mean a partner
ship in helping subsidize young
people," Naden vsaid.
Polio Contest
At Two Schools
Getting Hotter
The contest between '.wo Doug

and heavy as the two teams work
ing for the greatest amount for the
polio fund come into the home
stretch.
Latest reports from Principals
David Potter and Harry Jacoby
indicate that the schools are run
ning neck and neck on a per cap
ita basis.
From Douglas High School, the
figures stand at $472, a sum of
$1.08 per student collected. The
ninth grade leads in the Douglas
High race, with a total of $149.77
in donations.
Roseburg High School reports a
total of $1332.58, with the fresh
men leading with $505 for the
class. No per capita breakdown
has been made as yet, Jacoby
states, but will be figured at the
end of the race at 4 p.m., Jan. 31.
Students have a varied program
for raising fund", ranging from
baby sitting and car washing to
steak dinners and fashion shows.
Both groups are collecting bottles
and clothes hangers, turning all
collections over to the March of
Dimes. 1
$1000 Investment
Triples Return
Last August the First Methodist
Church ot Mitnerlin distributed si,-
000 in talent money to members
of its congregation. Within a nine-
month period, more than twice
lhat amount, $2,800, was raised and
turned back to the original fund.
That amount went for building of
a new parsonage.
Now, the Rev. Mr. and Mrs.
Luis Bove, pastors, will hold open
house Sunday from 2 to p.m. in
the new parsonage to permit the
public to view the result of their
efforts.
Closely following on the heels
of the open house, will be another
fund-raising project by men of
the church. Members of the men's
classes will hold "Ground Hog
Day" Feb. 2, by preparing and
serving a dinner to the public at
the church. Their motlo for the
day will be "Be A Hog For A
Day."
Money raised from the dinner
sales will go into a fund for putting
in a new lawn for the parsonage.
The fare includes both individual
and family style dinners, and both
children and adults are invited.

Individual
referring to 'that group of individ
uals who actually make a full
time career of it and have per
fected the necessary technique to
the nth degree.
There are seventy eight lobby
ists whose names appear on a -list
of "LOBBYISTS UN-INCORPORATED"
in Salem this session and
there are several more part time
"legislative - consultants" who
aren't recorded in the book offate.
Most of them hang out, or should
I say "hang out their shingles" in
the local hotels where they will
be available for any tired or lone
some legislator to visit.
The interests represented are
ralher strikingly at variance. For
example there are two men rep
resenting the Oregon Temperance
League, and one each for the Ore
gon Brewer's Institute, Licenced
Beverage Ass'n and The Wine
Council.
One man chooses to call himself
a representative for Christian Sci
ence, while another espouses Dog
Racing. Nearly twenty represent
organized labor or its affiliates,
but there is only one brave enough
to wave the placard for Employers.-
" ,
' In keeping with the fact that
the economy ' of the state is so
largely dependent upon . our for
ests is the fact that there are
six representing our forest indus
tries. And also pointing up the
significance attached to the pow
er problems in the Northwest is
the presence of representatives of
six power groups pupiic or pri
vate.
Transportation interests are
keeping keen eyes on what goes
on in saiem. Kauway conductors,
Railroad Associations, Railroad
Trainmen, Railroad Brotherhoods,
United Air Lines, and the Oregon
Bus Association, as well as two
representatives of truckers asso
ciations are on hand.
Just scanning the list I find dis
ciples for Hie cause of drinking,
or not-drinking, for barbers, teach
ers, longshoremen, doctors, farm
ers, truckers, fishers, accountants,
judges, loggers and druggists all
evidently flourishing and of course
a thousand little causes all of
which are important to somebody,
somewhere. That is, they are im
portant enough for people to be
willing to pay to have someone
look out for their interests.
I haven't seen anyone lobbying
for unorganized mothers and it
seems to me that field is being
overlooked. But I have faith that
another day some enterprising
man. no doubt, will be doing a
capable job of persuading legis
lators of the merits of mother
hood and proposing legislation to
make it a more attractive occupa
tion for the reluctant.

Probation Granted
LeRoy Farella On
Car Theft Charge
LeRoy Ralph Farella, 22, Port
land, was given a two - year pris
on sentence, then granted proba
tion by Judge Carl . Wimberly
in Douglas County Circuit Court
Tuesday.
Farella waived his right to a
grand jury hearing and pleaded
guilty to a district attorney's in
formation read by Dept. Dlst. Atty.
Don H. Sanders.
Farella waa charged with lar
ceny of personal property in con
nection with theft of a car in Rose
burg Dec. 31.
He and his court - appointed at
torney, Donald A. Dole, said Far
ella was under the inlluencc - of
liquor at the time, that he wanted
to visit relatives over New Year's.
When he found a car near the
Southern Pacific depot, belonging
to Virgil Hassett of Eugene with
tbe keys in it, he stole the vehicle.
Despite the fact it is no excise
for stealing a car, Judge Wimberly
criticized the "bad practice" of
leaving keys in cars.
Soon after the theft, Farella was
arrested in Salem by state police.
"See how quick you get pirked
up? You didn't even get to Port
land, did you?" the judge said.
Dole pointed out this was Far
ella's first "serious scrape with
the law."
Farella promised to abide by
probation rules, including one of -"no
drinking." .

SALEM on Fishing derbies In

Robert L. Elfstrom, Salem, and

Elfstrom said that fishing derbies
encourage wasteful fishing prac
tices, and that state fish and game
officials don't like them. ,
"The big prlr.es offered by com
munities, resorts or businesses for
the biggest fish caught, or the
largest amount caught, amount to
commercialism, not sportsman
ship," Elfstrom said.
Elfstrom added that derbies are
a big force in overtaxing the fish
