2 The New-Reviev, Roburg, Major Jobs Still Facing Legislature Budget Balancing, Aid To Education Await Decisions At Salem By PAUL W. HARVEY, Jr. SALEM (AP) Seven jobi re main to be done by the 10-weeka-old Oregon Legislature, House Speaker Robert Duncan laid to day. The lawmaker! will have to get nn the ball fast if they hope to achieve their desire to wind up the session hy mid-April. In listing the seven tasks. Dun- on said he is speaking only for himself. But Duncan's thinking appears to be the composite thinking of most Democrats. There has been very little ac tion on the seven items. There has not been much action on anything else that's important, either. Diuican's seven priority Items are: 1. Balance the budget without new taxes, if possible 2. Achieve some reorganization of state agencies. 3. Do something to assure Ore eon its fair share of federal cower. 4. Set up health and sanitation standards in farm labor camps. 3. Achieve some reform of the state's courts, especially In the handling of juvenile cases. 8. Create an Interim committee to study distribution of state school funds. 7. Increase the amount of money in the unemployment com pensation trust Jund, posBioiy ny making employes contribute. The farm labor camp bill has been passed hy the House. None or tne other items nas oeen con sidered by either house. . School Aid Urged There are two big hearings next week. Proposals to increase Dasic school aid to local, districts will be considered before the Educa tion rommitteea Monday night. The bill to create a state Power Commission will be discussed be fore the House Judiciary Commit tee Thursday afternoon. Legislators have been deluged with telegrams to Increase school aid. Pearson told the Senate the telegrams are inspired by the Oregon Education Assn., which wants the $105 per child per year aid increased at least to $120. The Democratic majority, how ever, is committed against such an increase because it would have to increase taxes to do it. Legislators also are being be sieged with telephone calls and telegrams against the bill to put Oregon on daylight saving time this year. The campaign against the bill is being financed by theater inter ests. The House probably will vote on the bill next week.

Lundy: Goipol Ivongelist Our ejuest writer for today, John M. York, will complete a Uriel of viral spiritual discussions tomorrow with "Who Aro Our Enemies?" at 11:00 A.M. and "We Have Forsaken All For Thee" at 7:30 P.M. "MUST fha BIBLE toy, THOU SHALT NOT?" There ara twa baiic laws of Christian conduct found among pro faned Chriitiani today. Almoet every protested believer claims to ba governed by one of theie rulei. The tint that we consider It: Wa may do ANYTHING which ie NOT aiprenly FORBIDDEN In the scriptures. In other words, anything Is harmless and pure, so long as the Bible does not say, "THOU SHALT NOT ". This rule, when followed, permits the uia at mechanical initruments of music in worship to God, tor the Bible does not say, "Thou sholt not uta mechanical instruments of music in worship." But observe the ABOVE RULE would permit the SUBSTITUTION of cake and lea cream for the bread and fruit of the vine at the Lord's Supper. Yet SINCERE CHRISTIANS would NOT QUESTION the EVIL of such an ACT. The other rule Is the only ona that may be CONSISTENTLY FOLLOWED with no danger of embracing impure practices. That rule ii, "We may da ONLY THOSE things which the BIBLE AUTHOR IZES. This would forbid the uta of mechanical Instruments of mutie in the 'worship, for GOD has AUTHORIZED "us to uia VOCAL MUSIC. "Speaking to yoursalvae In psalms and hymns and spiritual tongs, singing and making melody In your heart to tho Lord;" (Ephetians 5:19). This, of course, alio RULES OUT tho SUB STITUTION of caka and lea cream or anything else, for the bread and fruit of tho vino at tha Lord's Supper. It would bo completely impractical for God to attempt to write a "thou shalt not " in the Bibla for every avil act. How much easier It is to specify those THINGS that era RIGHT and leave it to SINCERE people to be CONTENT with THOSE THINGS. With what ere we concerned? Are wa endeavoring to perform the will at God The Bibla clearly teaches us Hit will. Let us arise end be about the Father's business. You ere urged to attend services when tha Church of Christ meats, and especially the conclusion of tha present meeting. Listen to KYIS at 9:00 o'clock en Lord's Day morning. CHURCH OF CHRIST 211 W.

Sot., Mor. 21, 195 COMMEMORATING o century of service, these members of Philetdrian 'Lodge No. 8, Independent Order of Odd Fallows, Roseburg, met Thursday night to cut a birthday coke that, coincidentally represents an organization as old as the State of Oregon. Standing in the rear from left are: Byron Crowell, District Deputy Grand Master, John Benefit Halt Plan Evokes Demo Action (Continued From Page One) a work stoppage, and not that of the general public. Their resolution was in the form of a recommendation to the Ore gon State Public Welfare Commis sion, welfare policy making body. Democratic leaders, along wun thqir resolution, produced a copy of a letter from Martin Bros, to Jeanette Jewell, state welfare ad ministrator, dated March 10 sug gesting the ending of welfare bene fits to idled workers. Copies were sent to the County Court and Coun ty Welfare Commission. In the party s resolution it was stated: "That the Democratic Par ty of Douglas County request the resignation of V. T. Jackson from the County Court of Douglas Coun ty, thereby removing himself from the Welfare Commission; and that, should he not resign, that the Dem ocratic party of Douglas County request tne Hon. marx uauieiu, Governor of Oregon, to remove tho said V. T. Jackson from his posi tion for malfeasance in office." The attack on Mrs. Baker asked for her "immediate removal" from office "for the reason that she has lost the confidence and respect of a large portion of Douglas Coun ty residents and those unfortunates she is employed to serve." It said further she "followed the Martin Bros, request ... in a press release . . . placing the com mission on the side of the com pany ... by stating the number of employes receiving public as sistance and the amounts received by them." Lynch, earlier this week, dis avowed the commission action and stated he was not aware the mat ter would be on the March 11 meet ing agenda. The Democratic executive board resolution said the action of Jack son. Huron Clough and Robert Kelly, all party members, "reflect upun me ucniutt uuu i oil,,. Communist-Held-Tibet Torn By Internal War NEW DELHI. India (AP) Fighting is raging in Lhasa, cap ital of Communist-held Tibet, the Indian Foreign Ministry reported today.

Budget Cuts Evoke Ike's Denunciation (Continued From Page One) ' $8,310,000 less than the Treasury asked but the same amount sought by the lax Lourt. Passage of the bill cleared the way for a House vote and an al most certain floor fight next week on an omnibus appropriation bill which had contained Eisenhower's loan fund request. The bill now earmarks $2,479,-3-10,494 to finance miscellaneous federal agencies and departments for the remaining three months of Hie 11)59 fiscal year. Altogether, the Appropriations Committee slushed the omnibus measure by $385,614,032 of which the loan fund rejection was the biggest cut. At least part of the Hind may be restored later when the House considers the 1900 foreign aid ap propriation. But this would charge the loan fund money against the new budget which Kiscnhower is trying lo balance. The administration had request ed the money be included in the current year budget, which is al ready heavily unbalanced. U. S'.

Ledge Founders Recalled Six prominent farmers and Rose burg business men signed the lodge charter that night more than a century ago when the chapter was founded. Some of them had ridden day on horseback to get to town, Jackson said in his talk. Heading the list was Crawford Gaddis, a local farmer whose fam ily later established and ran a creamery in Roseburg. The 16 acre plot called Gaddis Park which the city has acquired on the river between 99 and NE Stephens St. is part of the old homestead. "Gaddis orobably was the out standing leader in the early days of the lodge trom the standpoint ol service." Jackson said. "For years every motion considered for lodge action was either made or sec onded by Crawford Gaddis," the judge continued. Several of i the founders children and grandchil dren still live in the Roseburg area I. N. Choyinskie, an itinerant merchant in the early days of the territory, was another charter signer. His son, Joe, later became a prize fighter and once tougni the fabled Bob Fitzsimmons. Also there for the founding was Rufus Mallory, an attorney and school teacher, who later was elect ed to Congress from Oregon. He served from 1867 to 1871. Joel Thorn, who held one of the original donation land claims near Canyonville, was among the char ter signers. He rod by horse to Roseburg with J. v.. u. vanoer Bosch to attend the first session. Sixth member of the charter group was E. S. Kearney of whom little is known today. James F. Gazlev and John Ful- lcrton. IOOF members from other lodges, came to Roseburg to help set up me cnapier. uerr. mauie, prominent Riddle resident, is the grandson ot Uaziey, jacKson not ed. The new lodge took form in the Masonic Lodge Hall which was used by Odd Fellows for meet ings during the first two years of activity. Later they moved to their own building located where Central Junior High School now stands. Odd Fellows throughout the world are known by the three links in a chain which symbolizes the or ganization. It now embraces 1,345, 000 members in the U.S., Can ada, Latin America and eight coun tries abroad. The three chain links stand for love, friendship and truth in the fraternal order. The Bible is the guide for conduct of the member ship who pledge to stand by tne Christian credo. In his anniversary talk. Judge Jackson said no one really knows where the organization was found ed or when. "Its origin is lost in the haze of antiquity, although some say the term was used in the Roman army, and that Legion naires of Rome had a secret way of identifying one another which earned for them the term Odd FelloR." Earliest date of a known and recorded organization was -1745 in Manchester, England, where the first unity was established. An bn glishman in America, Thomas Wil dy, in 1819, put an ad in the news paper, Baltimore American, say ing he'd be glad to meet with any brothers of the area at a certain Baltimore tavern and coffee house on a certain date. Five Odd Fel lows showed up. forming the nu cleus for the first chapter of the nr,lnr in tliie (.nnnlv The organization grew and spread to other cities, and in 1840 the U. S. Sovereign Grand Lodge was organized, seceding from the parent order abroad. Jackson, who has been a member of the Roseburg lodge since 1915, has held all the offices and be came State Grand master for the IOOF, said there may be other rea sons whv members were called Odd Fellows, besides those attri buted to Roman soldiers. "In early days, before hospitals, nurses and doctors were preva lent, members visited the sick and often took care of them. They also had among their duties the burial of the dead and the education of orohans. I suppose this would make them seejit odd to a lot of neonle . the iudee recalled. He went on to name a long list of early day members who were among Douglas County's most prominent citizens, many of whom have descendants living today in this area. These early day members includ ed Mortier Howe. Asher Marks, W. R. Willis, J. R. Noah. J. S. Fitzhugh, D. L. Watson. F. Mof fitt, John Lenherr, Virgil and George Conn, William Carll, J. G. Deardorff, J. S. Van Buren. S. S. Williams. D. C. McClallan and J. M. Wright. They were joined by Binger Herman. J. It. Dixon. George M. Brown, T. B. Kent, John Arzner, E. Stephens and J. J.
