Billy Black's Buglers Bent
On Making Trip To Calgary
Tear yourself away from that
donkey race between Roseburg's
mayor and Chamber of Commerce
manager and leave behind you
the cares of the missing police de
partment funds and even forget
that it sure was hot out in recent
days and grab yourself a ticket
on a bus and go .
Up into the cooling climes of Can
ada. There's a city name of Cal
gary there and it's about set for a
Stampede. The Stampede comes off
from July 10 to IS.
You say the succotash among
the rhododendrons will ripen then?
And you've got to harvest it?
Well, then, let Billy Black's
Knights of Pythias Girls' Drum and
Bugle Corps go up there for you.
They've been invited to do that,
anyhow. There's still a little catch,
though, and that'll be mentioned la
ter. The Drum and Bugle Corps plans
to add the Stampede to a long list
of good-will journeys. There waa
that trip to Denver not long after
the 1959 blast in Roseburg, and
the convention parade spot of hon
or. And the journey to the Seattle
Seafair and the first-place prize
in that parade. And the other ones
closer to home.
The Drum and Bugle Corps next
year heads into its 20th season
of providing drill team for the
community, recreation for the
girls, and the good which natural
ly comes from that kind of training.
They want to add the Calgary,
Can., trip to that 20 years of events
and remembrances. And with that
in mind they're in an all-out drive
this week. About $300 is still need
ed. You'll find them in front of the
Umpqua Hotel, and elsewhere,
with candy for sale. And they'd
like you to try some and buy some.
The candy's good and the goal is
Canada. And the time is short.

Expert Says Nez Perce
Dam Site Is Unstable
WASHINGTON (AP) The
Nez Perce site on the Snake
River is geologically unstable and
should not be considered as a
site for an arch type dam, a ge
ologist for Pacific Northwest Pow
er Co. said Wednesday.
Portland P. Fox, testifying at
a Power Commission hearing on
competing applications for power
dam licenses, said the site is
also inferior as a site for a grav
ity type dam.
PNP wants to build a dam at
the Mountain Sheep site, upstream
from Nez Perce. It opposes the
application of Washington Public
Power Supply System to build at
Nez Perce.
Ex-Nazi Repudiates
Red Cross Report
JERUSALEM, ISRAEL (APV
Adolf Eichmann. denying for the
eighth day on the witness stand
all responsibility for the Nazis'
mass slaughter of Jews, today
repudiated a Red Cross report
that called him a powerful man
in the vast plot.
"I had no role, I had no auth
ority," testified the former Ges
tapo lieutenant colonel in charge
of "Jewish affairs" in the Third
Reich.
This was his reaction to a re
port made by the International
Red Cross after a visit to the
camp north of Prague early in
April 1945, a few weeks before
the Nazi collapse.
The report told of meeting with
Eichmann at the huge Habsburg
palace in Prague and described
him as a man "who' played a
first rate part in all these con
centration camps a reich pleni
potentiary in the SS."
To this Eichmann said; "No. I
had no role whatsoever (in the
camps), I had no function, I had
no authority."
Defense counsel Robert Serva-
tius led the defendant over
a series of prosecution documents
linking him with measures
against the Jews in' France, Bel
gium and Luxembourg and in
each instance Eichmann por
trayed his Berlin IV-B-4 head
quarters as merely a relay point
lor instructions and correspon
dence. Eichmann put the onus for the
persecutions and finally the de
portations of the Jews eastward
to their death on Otto Abetz, Hit
ler's hand-picked envoy to the
French - speaking lands overrun
by Nazi troops.

Negotiations In Sea Strike Pressed
In Hopes Of Staving Off Injunction
Labeling Practices
Hit By Researcher
WASHINGTON (AP) "Packag
ing and labeling practices that si
lently presume that the consumer
is a gullible moron can end up to
prove the advertisers to be the
moron," a researcher said today.
He is Ernest Dichter, president
of the Institute of Motivational
Research, Inc. His remarks were
prepared for senators trying to
find out if housewives are being
bamboozled by packaged goods on
supermarket shelves.
Dichter, who makes 1 specialty
of studying the psychological mo
tivations of the consumer, said
the consumer's sophistication was
developing "with galloping and
often unsuspected speed."
"Today, even a 10-year-old
knows that testimonials can be
bought and that no breakfast cer
eal will really make him fly like
Superman or hit like Mickey Man
tle." Dichter said.
Dichter said he believed deceit
ful and fraudulent activities in the
sale of package consumer goods
"will rapidly become unprofita
ble." "Less confidence on this point
was expressed by two other wit
nesses called by the Senate Anti
trust and Monopoly Subcommittee
.Colston E. Warne, president of
the Consumers Union, and J. L.
Littleficld, chief of the Foods and
Standards Divisiop of the Michi
gan Agriculture Department.
However, Warne saw some hope
in what he called "the angry
awareness of a growing number
of consumers over deceptive pack
aging." Littlefield said enforcement of
ficials should join throughout the
nation to eliminate deceptive prac
tices. They should be backed up
by whatever legislation may be
necessary, he said.

NEW YORK (AP) Negotia
tions in the national maritime
strike suddenly resumed with
the aid of a presidential board
were pressed today with some hope
of staving off a Taft-Hartley Act
injunction.
David L. Cole, chairman of
President Kennedy's fact-finding
board, has said the Taft-Hartley
proceedings "could be delayed if
we're making substantial prog
ress." Cole expressed "just hope,
nothing more" because there
had been slight concessions on
both sides.
But when the negotiations re
cessed at 1:30 a.m. today there
was no further sign of progress
toward progress except that
more talks were scheduled for
later in the day.
When the session ended, Cole
told newsmen that it would be
"misleading" to note any possi
bility that the board would delay
I its scheduled return to Washing
jton Friday.
Kennedy has instructed the
board to report to him Friday on
whether it found the nation s se
curity endangered by the two-week-old
strike of 85,000 officers
and crewmen.
If the board reports that the na
tion is endangered, Kennedy pre
sumably will instruct Secretary of
Labor Arthur J. Goldberg to ob
tain a federal court injunction
ending the strike for an 80-day
cooling-off period.
Goldberg, at the request of Ken
nedy, has appealed for settlement
of the contract dispute by Friday.
He said neither he nor Kennedy
relishes the injunction process.
Union leaders have contended
that no national emergency exists
land have opposed issuance of an
j injunction.
Kennedy Signs
Highway Bill
WASHINGTON (AP) President
Kennedy signed into law today
legislation to assure completion of
the interstate highway system by
1972.
In a White House ceremony at
tended by a large group of sena
tors and representatives and other
government officials, Kennedy
said the legislation would "in
crease the nation's defense readi
ness and decrease the appalling
highway death toll."
The bill Kennedy signed "with
great pleasure" pumps an addi
tional $11.7 billion into the inter
state program.
The financing arrangements in
clude $600 million a year from
continuing the gasoline tax at its
present 4-cents-a-gallon rate, $150
million from other highway taxes,
and the switching of 5 per cent of
the excise tax on trucks and buses
from the general treasury to the
highway fund, for another $150
million annually.
The diversion, which the admin
istration opposed, was postponed
until July 1, 1963.
The bill also continues for two
years the provision granting bo
nuses in allocations to states that
ban advertising billboards along
Uie new roads.
The bill contains thes tax in
creases: The use tax on trucks and buses
over 26.000 pounds, now $1.50 per
1,000 pounds, to 83.
The tax on highway tires from 8
cents a pound and on inner tubes
from 9 cents a pound to 10 cents.
The tax on tread rubber from
3 cents a pound to S rents.
An estimated 250 passenger
ships, freighters and tankers have
been immobilized on the Atlantic,
Pacific and Gulf coasts. The rest
of the American-flag merchant
marine of almost 1.000 ships is
at sea, and the ships will not be
idled until they reach a United
States port. Foreign-flag ships are
not tied up.
The striking unions are the Na
tional Maritime Union, the Sea
farers nternational Union, the Ma
rine Engineers Beneficial Associ
ation; the International Organiza
tion of Masters, Mates and Pilots;
and the American Radio associa
tion.. A key Issue in the dispute Is'
the union demand to organize the
crews of American-owned ships
f vine foreign flags. These SO'
called "runaway ships" pay low
er wages than American-flag
ships whose men are represented
by American unions.
The Spanish imported Negroes
from Africa into Cuba until 1886.
