REVOLUTIONARY LAKE at Whistler's Bend is
almost ready for water. It's the site for the state
Game Commission's man-made lake to be used
for impoundments for natural production of fish.
The 26-foot dam was constructed across Bull
Creek to create a lake covering about 40 acres.
Farmers Oppose
Worker's Union
Eugene (AP) The Oregon
Farm Bureau Federation called
Wednesday for legislative aid
against a possible attempt to or
ganize farm workers.
The group proposed a law to ex
clude harvest operations from any
labor dispute. The resolution was
adopted after the group heard
warnings that an attempt to or
ganize farm workers in California
may spread to Oregon.
Sponsors said such a law would
enable a farmer to get migrant
workers from state and federal
agencies even if pickets appeared
al a harvest operation. At pre
sent the law prevents the agencies
from taking sides in a labor dis
pute and forbids them from send
ing workers to a picketed opera
tion. Another resolution urged organ
ization of a bargaining association
1 to represent farmers in dealing
with buyers and wholesalers.
The federation, which in the
past has called for elimination of
marketing quotas and acreage al
lotments for wheat, this time
voted down such a resolution. Del
egates from wheat areas led the
successful fight against the pro
posal. The group reiterated earlier
stands in favor of a sales tax,
a reduction of property taxes, and
gradual elimination of govern
ment agricultural regulations. Al
so reiterated was opposition to
the so-called Brannan plan of di
rect subsidies in lieu of produc
tion. Wiley Clowers, Madras, was
elected first vice president and
Barry Brownell, Oregon City, sec
ond vice president. The offices of
president and third vice presi
dent will be up for election next
year.
Morse Asks Survey .
Of Postal Costs
WASHINGTON (AP) Sen.
Wayne Morse, D-Ore., Wednesday
asked Comptroller General Joseph
Campbell to have the General
Accounting Office conduct a com
plete cost survey on the proposed
move from Portland to Seattle of
the Northwest regional office of
the Post Office Department.
Morse told Campbell he had
asked Sen. Orlin D. Johnson, D
S.C., chairman of the Senate Post
Office Committee, "to make fur
ther and emphatic request of the
postmaster general to delay trans
fer of the Northwest regional of
fice." Postmaster General Arthur S.
Summerfield agreed last summer
to delay the transfer until the com
mittee could study its advisability.
On Nov. 10, however, the depart
ment announced it would go ahead
with the move, starting Dec. 1.
Morse said the regional office
now is in a federal building in
Portland. It moved to Seattle, he
said, it would occupy leased space
wnicft would cost the government
about $100,000 a year.

Selby Says Civil
The program of civil defense and
disaster preparedness is a "volun
tary, do-it-yourself activity, which
is offered the citizens of Douglas
County as a government service."
So says Civil Defense Director
Arthur Selby of Glide. He made
the statement today in answer to
what he said was a strong
feeling by "many people" that
civil defense should be a manda
tory program of the federal, slate
or county governments, tie said
he doesn't agree with this attitude
"although it would make my job
easier and would aid the many
people who are holding positions
Absentee Ballots
Give Nixon Calif.
SAN FRANCISCO (AP)-Absen-
tee ballots spelled victory for
Richard M. Nixon today in the
tight race for California's 32 elec
toral votes, and heightened the
vice president s prestige in his
home state.
Switching the statewide unoffiial
count from the Democratic col
umn Bid not alter the election of
Democratic Sen. John F. Ken
nedy. But it choked off opposition
jibes that Nixon couldn't even car
ry his native area.
Unofficial returns from all but
20,000 of 230,000 absentee ballots
counted eight days alter the polls
closed gave the Republican pres
idential nominee a lead of 13,160.
He had trailed Kennedy through
out the regular count, but the ab
sentee laiiy was; .Nixon
Kennedy 84,458.
These save Nixon a total of
3,219,211 to 3,206,051 for Kennedy.
The uncounted zo.ooo were main
ly in Republican strongholds of
San Diego and Orange Counties.
It appeared that only gross er
ror exposed by the official can
vass in some of the major coun
ties could upset the Nixon vic
tory. This seemed unlikely.
Los Angeles County, which Ken
nedy carried election day, gave
Nixon 51.818 absentee votes to 30,
529 for the president-elect.
Civil Rights Bill
Strategy Meets Set
WASHINGTON (AP)-Scn. Clif
ford P. Case, R-N.J., said today
a bipartisan Senate group will
start maneuvering the first day
of the new Congress to enact civil
rights legislation. . . .
Case told reporters he and oth
er Republicans who want broad
er federal laws to protect rights
of Negroes and other minorities
will develop their strategy in
meetings here next month., He
said they also planned to reach
an alliance with Northern Demo
cratic senators sharing their
views.
The first move, he said, will be
to challenge as soon as Congress
convenes Jan. 3 a Senate rule
adopted early in 1958. It provides
that a time limit on Senate de
batedeath knell to a filibuster
can be imposed by not less than
two-thirds of those present and
voting.
Win or lose on that issue, Case
said, the group will press later
for legislation to fulfill civil rights
campaign pledges in the Republi
can and Democratic platforms.
Case exnressed confidence Pres
ident-elect John F. Kennedy will
throw his weight behind the drive
for more ' civil rights legislation.
"I would be surprised and deeply
disanoointed if he did not," the
senator said.

He said that such an outlook on

This '61 is built on the principle that the place
you want space is inside. We put it there, too.
Actually trimmed the outer size to give you
extra inches of clearance for parking and ma
neuvering, and Still worked wonders with inner
space. Door openings are as much as 6 inches
wider to let you look good getting in or out.
Seals are as much as 14 higher for greater
comfort and a good command of the road. We've
thought of everything. Increased rear foot room
by slenderizing the driveshaft tunnel. Worked
in sensible new ideas all the way bank through
that huge bin of a baggage compartment. See
how thoughtful this one is? Full of good new
things. Fulj of good old things, too, like Chevy.'s
well-known thrift and depend- pjmq

As it now stands, Selby said,
"shelters are eligible for FHA and
other home loans, and Gov. Hal
field has indicated that he will in
troduce a bill to the 1961 Legisla
ture which will allow property tax
exemption for home sheter.

the framework for a comprehen

about ourselves or our way of life,
it is our privilege to overlook these
programs."
Selby concluded he considers
civil defense a personal thing, just
as he would consider one's insur
ance on his home or his car. "The
difference here is that instead of
financial difficulty, we are faced
with the possibility of extinction,"
he said.
