Saturday Luncheon Was Highlight For Weekend Sorority Meet Here By BEVERLY BROOKE News-Review Staff Writer Mrs. Victor P. Morris of Eugene, state honorary member of Alpha Rho State, spoke to more than 200 women educators at a luncheon Saturday at the Umpqua Hotel. The luncheon was one of the high lights of the state convention of Delta Kappa Gamma Society, In ternational, held here Friday, Sat urday and Sunday. Mrs. Morris, in her opening re marks, said that the occasion, the 21st birthday of the organization, made her think of changes which have occurred in the world, since birthdays are generally times of "looking back." Changes Incredible Speaking of some of these chang es, she said it was incredible that youth today must have permits to go to work, when not too many years ago Alexander Hamilton was trying to improve America's indus trialization by urging the use of labor of "children of tender years." We have seen many great chang es in America, she said, but noted that in many parts of the world no f THINKING OF A S BATHROOM NEW?)

She sooke especially of Korea, where she spent a recent 13 months. There, she said, the most primi tive methods are still used. She cited as an example the Korean road building methods where wom en did much of the work, carrying sand and gravel in buckets to the construction site. How different it is here, she said, with our use of modern heavy equipment Development Necessary As they change with the times, Mrs. Morris said, women educa tors must do their utmost to de velop their human resources if they would make the most of their oppor tunity to help young people. This development nas several factors which are important, she said. First of all, one must regard one's performance as a person. She said that what a person is, is more important than what he does. Most important, too, she said, is the respect which we give to other people. She further stated that it is a sin to undermine a person's self respect and we must not demean a human being in his own eyes. She urged character building of one's personality by reading for ideas and to be a par ticipant in public affairs in spirit as well as in body. Korea Wat Visited Mrs. Morris, in demand as a public sneaker, colors her talks with her recent experiences in Korea. General business sessions were held in the Episcopal Parish Hall Saturday both before and after the luncheon.

Securities Probe Launched Today WASHINGTON (AP) The first broad public investigation of the securities business since 1934 was launched here today with a prom ise there would be none of the trappings of a prosecution. Milton H. Cohen, director of the inquiry being conducted by the Securities and Exchange Commis sion, said in a prepared statement opening two weeks of public hear ings: "We are here engaged in a special study of securities mar kets, not in a prosecution or en forcement proceeding against. any one or more individ'.mlR or firms." Cohen said the aim would be "to examine the strength and weaknesses of present-day prac tices and controls" in the indus try, to see whether further steps were necessary to protect inves tors. The last major inquiry of this kind was conducted in 1933-34 by the Senate Banking Committee and led to the creation of the SEC. Attention was directed first to day at the qualifications, training, supervision and sales tactics of mutual fund salesmen. Leading the list of industry witnesses were Walter Benedick, president of In vestors Planning Corp. of Amer ica, and H. L. Hamieson, presi dent of King Merritt & Company, Inc., both of New York City. Cohen said the schedule should not be taken to mean that mutual funds or their practices are being singled out for particular atten tion or criticism." Brokerage firms will be heard from later. Among those invited to testify are representatives of such firms as Merrill, Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith, Inc., and Bache & Company.
