Stanton Attention will be focused this week on industrial safety. The Roscburjf Industrial Safety Committee is directing the proKiam, which has as its purpose the reduction of acci dents in manufacturing plants, mills, woods and on the high way. Although the program is centered on industrial saf ety, it is the hope of the sponsors that through the promo tional efforts all types of accidents will be reduced in num ber. The Roseburg committee has attracted widespread at tention for its past efforts. It has been one of the most active groups in the state. It has had high commendation for its work. The committee is composed by representatives from both labor and management. It is one of the very few com mittees in which both the unions and employers make equal contributions of money, time and effort. Because of joint participation, the program is amply financed. Selection of personnel has been made to achieve a working committee. Much planning has gone into this week's program, which, except for one day. will be chiefly promotional. Post ers, bumper strips, displays, advertising and many other forms of presentation will be made to keep the idea of acci dent prevention before the public. Seakers will appear at group meetings. Films will be shown at numerous gath erings. Conference Main Feature The week-long promotional program will culminate Sat urday in a safety conference, an all-day affair to be held at the county fairgrounds. With cooperation from the Acci dent Prevention Division of the State Industrial Accident Commission, the committee has prepared a busy confer ence schedule. One of the principal features will be in the form of dis cussion groups, where key personnel will divide into sec tions to discuss accident problems peculiar to each partic ular division. Guest speakers will be present. A truck driving demonstration will le included. State, county and city officials will be on hand to welcome all local and visit- Reception v-Jrim.;;.wj 1 C I I Tmr- . i-.TiM-. bbbb, -V " .:V V X ia. 1 Peter ld$on In The Day's News (Continued from Page One) WASHINGTON (NEA) Pro posals lo scrap mo.st of the old concepts about international limi conduct massive against aggressors. retaliation than with indigents.

This program certainly deserves the utmost in coop eration. Those responsible for it are to be commended for their work. Here in Douglas County we can fully realize the im portance of industrial safety. Our economy is based large ly upon the timber industry. This industry carries a high accident rate. We perhaps think most of fatalities in the woods. Six teen were killed in woods accidents last year. To date we have had our tenth fatality in that department. l!ut, acci dents in the woods furnish only a part of the picture. Nearly every day we read of some workman hurt in a mill acci dent. Far more minor accidents are never publicized.

To File Final Designs For Dam BOISE ifi Idaho Power Co. took another step Monday along the thornv path toward construc tion of three private dams in the Hells Canvon reach of the Snake River between Idaho and Oregon. It said final design plans for two of the dams were to be filed during the day before the Federal Power Commission in Washington. Company President T. E. Roach said construction of the Oxbow and Brownlee Dams costing 87 mil lion dollars and producing almost half a million kilowatts of power would begin as soon as the Neuberger Cites Attendance; Wyatt Counters OREGON CITY ifi - Sen. Neu berger (D-Ore), replaying to GOP criticism of the congressional attendance of Sen. Morse (D Orel, said here that the record of the state's three Democrats was better than that of Ihe three Republicans. Speaking at a Democratic picnic here, Neuberger said the composite Democratic attendance of Sen. Morse, Rep. Green (D-Ore) and himself was 94 per cent. This coin pares with the 86 per cent record of Republican Reps. Coon, Ells- wortn ana rsomiaa, ne said. Neuberger said an analysis of the Congressional Quarterly showed the following percentages in parti cipitation in rollcalls in 1955 by the Oregon delegation: Senate Morse 93 per cent; Neu berger 93 per cent. House Green 96 per cent: Coon per cent; Ellsworth 84 per cent and Norblad 78 per cent. Wendell Wyatt, Republican state chairman, had criticized Morse's attendance record. When advised of Neuherger's remarks, Wyatt said: "It is signi ficant that neither Sen. Neuberger nor Sen. Morse has denied that Sen. Morse had one of the poorest voting participation records in the 83rd (previous session of) Congress." r-ns. Ilia ifosiPnS. "Final design plans for the 2.2.-000-kilowatt Hells Canyon unit are in process of preparation and will be filed shortly with the commis sion." Roach said, "so hat Is construction can be undertaken up on completion of the Brownlee and Oxbow units." . Six weeks ago the FPC licensed Idaho Power to build the three dams, climaxing a bitter series of hearings lasting more than a year.
