EUGENE Wl The Oregon

segregation in a few Oregon
churches. But delegates urged that
the situation be changed.

memorialize the 1956 general con
ference to "urge the integration
of racial churches Into annual con
fprprwen and iurisdictions with
which they are geographically as
sociated.
They said that segregation in
churches was "not only directly
contrary to the spirit of the Su
preme Court's order ot integration
in the public schools, but an af
front to the Gospel." -
The conference renewed Its in
vitation to Japanese Methodist
churches to become members of
th conference.
Elected to the 1956 general con
ference were: Lay Ernest Peter
son; ministerial Dr. Laurence

President Juan Peron
Picking New Cabinet
Following Resignations
By JIMMIE PAYNE
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina Wl
President Juan Peron worked on
a new Cabinet lineup today after
telling the Argentine people he is
staying in office only because they
need him.
"If I were not strengthened by
the imiportance to me of the peo
ple," he said in a nationwide
broadcast last night,' "I would
abandon the government this very
day. If I havo not done it, it was
because I really fear the conse-
quences my selfishness would
bring down on the nation."
Peron's broadcast reviewing the
bloody revolt last week came only
a few hours after his 16-man Cab
inet resigned. The presidential
press secretariat said the minis
ters wanted to let the President
reshuffle the government as he
wished.
The broadcast and the mass res
ignation appeared to be new evi
dence that Peron had retained his
grip on Argentina, despite specu
lation and rumors that the revolt
had weakened his power. The ra
dio speech was the President's
first public utterance since Satur
day. get a new

much of the trouble today. These
organizations were based on the
spirit of the U.N. Charter, he said,
backed by these organizations,
which had led to the solution of
major problems.
Then, in sarcastic language, he
took up the problems which Molo
tov had listed in his speech as
having been solved. The Korean
War. he said, was ended only aft
er U.N. forces had repelled Com
munist .aggression.
"It is indeed strange." he said
"to hear this triumnh of collective
security now hailed as proof of
the pcaccloving character of the
aggressor and its supporters. If
they had had their way, we wouid
today be commemorating the fifth
anniversary of the demise of the
United Nations."
Dulles said further:
The Indochina fighting was end
ed by agreement In Geneva, but
only after the United States and
other nations made it clear that
continued fighting might call for
collective action wilhin the frame
wnrk nf the U.N. charter.
The Austrian treaty should have
been signed years ago, but it was
delayed while one of its occupy
ing powers exploited its economy
for a fiecade.
Yugoslav-Soviet relations have
been improved but they were bad
in the first place only because
Yugoslavia had broken away from
"an al en vokc."
The recent Soviet overture to
West Germany and Japan came
only after years of abuse and Hos
tility from Russia.

Continuing his tour of northern

informally earlier at Lincoln, home

Hampshire Gov. Sherman Adams.
At neither Franconia Notch nor
Lincoln did Eisenhower make any
allusion to his political plans for
1956,
At Concord, Thursday he caused
a great stir with a "teaser" sug
gestion that tie might run for anoth

A presidential aid, who asked

commotion he caused as a result
of his Concord speech.
All
CoVemOr Will
Attend Salmon
Harbor Dedication
Gov. Paul Patterson will be
present July 9 at Winchester Bay
for what is being heralded as the
biggest event ever staged in the
port area.
It will be the dedication of the
new Salmon Harbor facilities. This
week, the Lower Umpqua Cham
ber of Commerce selected George
Gratke as general chairman of the
event.
The Port Umpqua Courier re
ported that the governor's execu
tive secretary had informed it that
the governor would arrive tnday
night to be on hand for the early
morning fishing outside the bar.
"You can count on the Gover
nor being there," Che secretary
told the Courier, "Ho won't be
happy unless he can get there
in time to catch one of those salm
on." The Courier explains that the
fishing trip fits nicely into the ded
ication weekend schedule. Fishing
boats will probably go out on the
ebb tide at dawn and return on
the incoming tide. This would
bring the fishermen back before
noon.
More than 100 other dignitaries
from all pants of Oregon are be
ing invited to the celebration, in

afternoon after being bitten in tile

ment by his mother after the inci
dent. Douglas County Health Officer

tion. Mrs. Young said Jimmy was

ed to pick it up, it hit htm in the

boy to Ihe doctor as a precaution
ary measure. She said a few rats
hpd brvn seen in the area last fall.

plans to try the 18.3-mile swim
again, possibly Saturday.
"What has that Strait got against

They are the Rev. John Donelin

pill for Thomas, a former Marine

miles on a zig-zag course before
being pulled from the water and at
one stage came within less than
six miles of the Washington shore
before a strong wind and tides
pushed him back.
