dit 4 Th News-Review, Roieburg, Research Earlier this week, The Nw-Review objected to establishment of a research center for the state at Portland State Col lege. The reason for the objection was that it is felt such a research center should be more broadly based on service and co operation of the entire state, rather than, just the Portland metropolitan area. The Corvallis Gazette-Times has simi lar ideas. It has this to say: Oregon businessmen and industrialists attending the annual Industrial Develop ment Conference on the Oregon State Uni versity campus last week heard how Ore gon, if it only has the foresight to do so, could very well duplicate in most respects North Carolina's highly successful "Re search Triangle" in giving new life to this state's economy. This is particularly timely right now in view of the report lust week at the Portland City Club which advocated a vast program of graduate work and re search, both public and private, in the Portland area. Proposals for various types of graduate and research programs there have previously been made. Like Oregon, North Carolina was plagued with the difficulty of its econom- ' ic base being heavily oriented toward two major industries. Instead of agricul ture and forestry, as in Oregon, they were agriculture add textiles. The Research Triangle constitutes a major effort in North Carolina to diversi fy its industrial base and to provide the leverage whereby it may develop more sophisticated manufacturing units which are able to provide high per-worker in comes. Highly significant in the North Caro lina situation is that it built its program on EXISTING resources rather than de pending on a multi-million dollar setup starting practically from scratch as the Portland City Club proposal envisions. Joe S. Floyd, Jr., professor .of finance at the University of North Carolina and an authority on the Tar Heel research . center, explained the ; Research Triangle in detail to the OSU conference. "The genius of the designers of the Triangle and there were many design ers is that they sought to utilize the existing resources as a basis for an ef fort to push North Carolina ahead in the race for a modern, scientific; industrial " ' complex," Floyd explained. "These resources were of two typos tangible and intangible. The tangible re sources were the existence of three strong universities located within a radius , Labor Law Changes Hinge On Outcome Of Rails Issue By PETIR IDSON WASHINGTON - (NEA) -Whether new restrictive labor leg islation comes out of Congress this year may be determined by the out come of the railway labor work rules issue. President Kennedy's Emergency Board reviewing this four-year-old dispute between America's rail roads and their on-train employes is expected to file its report about May JO. Members of this board are Judge Samuel 1. Rosenman of New York, President Clark Kerr of University of California and Nathan P. Fein singer, University of Wisconsin law professor. All three have been fact-finders and arbitrators in nu merous labor disputes for 25 years. There will he 30 days after the Board reports for the carriers and the brotherhoods lo work out a set tlement. If thry do, and if there Is no strike, pressure for new legislation to restrict unions is expected to vanish in Congress. Hut three tirtics this year repre sentatives of railroad management have walked out of negotiations on (lie work rules issue.

A new labor bill just introduced by Sen. Jacob K. Javita. K-N.Y., is regarded as significant In this connection. Ho proposes that the strike provisions of both the Rail- way Labor and Taft-Hartley Act be amended. He would aulhorize the President to appoint boards of inquiry into labor disputes. These boards would be given a new power lo make rec ommendations for settlement idditinn to fact-finding. in In place of the 80 day court in junctions now obtainable under Taft-Hartley for "coolingoff" pe riods, the Javils bill would provide for a 30-day required bargaining period on a board's recommenda tions, even though neither side would be required lo accept the recommendations. This apparently would eliminate employe elections on acceptance or Ore. Triangle Offers .rejection of management's last of fer in a labor dispute. All these developments come at a time when labor relations appear to be improving a little, after a bad winter. With the long New York and Cleveland newspaper strikes end ed, two smaller rail disputes set tled, rubber workers reaching new agreements with the major tire companies, and auto and steel worker unions holding prencgolia lions talks intended to head off strikes later in the year, there is a little late spring sunshine on the labor front horizon. The big effort now will he to gel collective bargaining back in the hands of labor and management representatives, where it belongs.

"A by-product of the adiacent univer sities the availability of highly com petent faculty people who may serve as consultants to research laboratories is also imnortant. The give and take be tween the faculty and research groups serve to strengthen both. The other principal physical asset was the availability of a large tract of land strategically located mid - way between the three campuses. "The intangible resources which in my opinion are of equal if not greater im portance than the tangible factors were the intellectual climate of the area and the attitudes of the citizens of our state," Floyd continued. The speaker pointed out that while sal ary and fringe benefits are strong induce ments in attracting scientific people, non monetary factors frequently are equally important. "High among these non-monetary fac tors is the general cultural and intellec tual climate of a given area,' Floyd de clared. As we have said before and now re peat: the Salem, Albany, Corvallis, Eu gene area forms a triangle or a quad equally as impressive as the North Caro lina triangle with Oregon State Univer sity, the University of Oregon, Willamette University and an already thriving re search center in Albany tailor-made for almost immediate progress. We haven't seen the City Club report but press accounts and laudatory Port land newspaper editorials practically ig nored the EXISTING mid-Willamette valley facilities for promotion of a pri vate research center such as the North Carolina Research Triangle or better utilization of more than $100,000,000 worth of physical plant, alone at Oregon State University and the University of Oregon. It is easy to understand why the City club and others from Portland are push ing for the graduate center to be estab lished in that area. But since it is the tax payers of the entire stale who would have to foot the bill, it would seem that the best site from all points of view, espe cially economic, should be the major con sideration. Of course the way the Legislature is acting about taxes, it is not likely that anything worthwhile will be: forthcoming , on this project for many a moon. This is' just another example of how short-sighted, the Legislature has been. The Almanac By United Press International Today is Tuesday, May 28, the 148th day of 1963 with 217 to follow. The moon is approaching its first quarter. The morning stars are Venus, Jupiter and Saturn. The evening star is Mars. On this day in history: In 1802, a budding cuniedienne, Marie Dressier, made her debut in New York in the comic opera, "The Robber of the Rhine." In 1005, imperial Russia's fleet suffered a disastrous defeat under the guns of the Japanese navy commanded by Admiral Togo In 1934. .Mrs. Oliva Dionne, with the assistance of a midwife and Dr. Allan Roy Dnfoe, a local coun try doctor, gave birth to five baby girls in her farmhouse near Cul lender, Ontario. In 1955, Albert Whilrhousc, a di rector of the United Steelvvorkers of America, told an audience in Allantie City, N.J., that autnma tion of the nation's factories will lead to a two-hour work day.

WASHINGTON WINDOW Republican E dition Jabs Party Leaders By LYLE C. WILSON Unittd Press International The modern Republican maga zine that rates the GOP leaders of the House and Senate as a pair of clowns and Sen. Barry Gold- water R-Ariz., as a bumbler, is seeking funds from the party faith ful at a S100-a-plalc dinner. The magazine is "Advance," founded a couple of years ago by a group of young Harvard men and published occasionally from Washington D.C. The dinner is to take place Monday May 27 at the Hotel Pierre, New York City. Sen. Thomas Kuchel It-Calif., and Rep. Jolin Lindsay H-N.Y., are listed as speakers. The presence is prom ised of other distinguished con gressional Republicans and party officials. It is reasonable to believe that Sen. Everett Dirkscn and Rep. Charles A. Halleck, Republican leaders, respectively of the Sen ate and the House will not be present. "Advance" dealt with them and with Goldwater in the March, 1962. edition shortly before former President Dwight D. Eisen hower startled party regulars with an all-out endorsement of the mag azine. Ike professed to have read it before uttering his endorsement but there are doubts about that. Opening a June 30, 1962, Repub lican gathering at his Gettysburg farm, Eisenhower endorsed "Ad vance" and urged all present to subscribe. Those present reported that Halleck required restraint by calmer counsel when Ike endorsed the magazine. The March edition rnnlained a free-swinging attack on Halleck, Dirksen and Gold water. Halleck had read it if, by chance, the general had not. The March issue was devoted lo "Re publicans on Capitol Hill." The magazine described the Republi can congressional leadership as reluctant, lazy or hostile in mat ters of responsibility to the well being of the nation and of the Republican Parly. It attributed to several of llallcck'j Republican collegucs the statement that: Hal leck hasn't read a serious book i in 10 years and is suspicious of those who have. , 1 2)ayj Toktn from tho filaa 44 YEARS ACO , May Jl, 133 ' I The News Review announced ; proudly ihe newspaper would be delivered each evening lo Dillard.

The young editors of "Advance" found Goldwater to have been a bumbling chairman of the Senate Republican Campaign Committee. They called him disqualified for lhat chairmanship, adding that "Goldwatcr's liabilities in his campaign committee position seem lo us overwhelming. Dirksen and Halleck at that Up in Salem the other day, Sen. Warren Cook, of Grcshom, made a little speech to his colleagues in behalf of a bill to create an 11- member interim committee to study ways to bring more tourists to Oregon. He made it sound quite worthwhile. For example: He told his hearers that tourism is a healthy infant in Oregon's al most static economy. He said tour ism could become Oregon's second industry this year behind tirr bcr, but ahead of agriculture. He said tourists spent more than $200 MILLION in Oregon last year. That's a lot of money. In 1960. the last census year. Or- ! egon s population was approxi i mately 1.800.000. To bring the fig ures into round numbers, let's as ; sume that our state's population ' might by now have reached 2,- 000.000. i That would mean that last i year's tourist income of $400,000, 000 came to an average of $200 I per Oregon person or S800 for ' each average family of four in i our state. I That's a lot of NEW money, i It's worth going after. Cjone J3i v of Tht Ntwf.Raviw 'I , istralion of 1.1,635, according lo i County Clerk Roy Agce. Gov.

There continues to be suspicion that "Advance" is promoting Michigan's Gov. George Romney for the 1964 Republican presiden tial nomination and with the con nivance of Gen. Eisenhower.

This, added to the $217 'stient in Oregon last year by OUT ! OK-STATE tourists, adds up lo $401 ; million. It can be argued that the tourist money spent by Oregonians in their own statu isn't NEW money which is true. But let's put it this way: If we of Southern Oregon, for ex ample, could induce the people of Oregon to spend $100 million va cationing in our area, it would mean the addition of $100 million lo the economy of our region. That goes for any other area of Oregon. A tourist dollar is a tour ist dollar so far as each region is concerned. Let's now get" back lo the tourist problem of Oregon as a whole. Our state's estimated income in 19H2 fin in out-of-state visitors trav eling by automobile came to a to tal of $108 million. The estimated number of out-of-state cars visiting Oregon last year was 2.804.600. The average length of stay nor car in our state was a little less than three days 2.93 days, according lo toe estimates. The average ex penditure per day for each tourist car was $20.45. So You see If we could have induced each out-of-state tourist car that visited Oregon last year lo stay just ONE DAY longer, we could have added nearly $0 million to our tourist income. That, in a nut-shell, is Oregon's tourist problem. Ihe figures indicate that we are getting our share of the tourists. They just don't STAY LONG ENOUGH! How to get them to stay longer? That's a problem that calls for a lot of study If we can find the answer to it, we can add IM MENSELY to Oregon's prosperity.

THE LIGHTER SIDE: By DICK WEST WASHINGTON ILP1) - The! other day a nice kindly press j agent came to see me, lifted me! up on his knee, patted me on the ! head and said: "If you are a good boy and keep your nose clean 1 will tell you a story about the teddy bear's birth-1 day." I Gee willikins. I hardly knew what to say. I mean, it wasn't even bedtime. 1 But 1 figure that if people havei cot me marked down as uie teaay bear type there's no use fighting it. Besides that, it was a real peachy story. Do you know how the teddy bear got its name? I'll give you a hint. It was named for someone in Washington. Someone high up in the government. Someone whose last name is associated with the White House. Now everybody who guessed Teddy Kennedy go stand in the corner. Teddv Kennedy wasn t even horn when the first teddy bear was created. Neither was Jack, or Bobby, or Pat, or Jean. etc. Teddy s tvtn nirtnaay The teddv bear, as any grand fathers in the audience may re call, was named for Teddy Roose velt, and this is its 60th birth day. Just think, in five more years it will be eligible for so cial security. The original teddy bear was the brain child of Morris Michlom, a NEWS ANALYSIS: Castro Probably Demanded More Arms, Economic Aid By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign Newi Analyst Notes from the foreign news blei: Window dressing: When Fidel Castro winds up his month-long visit lo the Soviet Un ion, the final communique may be expected to contain the usual outpouring of mutual friendship and praise. But behind the facade of rousing receptions, serious talks arc believed to have taken place, with Castro demanding increased economic and military aid as his price for support in Khrushchev's quarrel with the Red Chinese. In an interview before leaving Cuba, Castro sounded very neutral. For the moment, Khrushchev is ex pected to mark time on such cold war issues as disarmament. Ber lin and Laos although perhaps keeping the pipelines open with new exchanges. Waiting timo: For live months Italy had a government which was waiting for the outcome of general elections. Now a new period of wailing is setting in. The Socialist Parly Congress opening on July 18 will determine whether the Socialists are ready lo break their munici pal and labor links with the Com munists, If they are. they then will qualify for a full share in another Italian Center-left govern ment. If not, the Christian Demo crats may try for a moderate rightwing government in coalition with the liberals.

Michtom got the idea from a newspaper cartoon that depicted President Theodore Roosevelt re fusing to shoot a scrawny, fright ened bear cub his guides had dragged into his hunting camp. Don't ask me why that was such a big deal. It would have made a better story if the bear had dragged Roosevelt into camp. Anvway, Michtom designed a lov bear and put it in the win dow of his candy store. It was. the sensation of the neighborhood. Pretty soon toy bears were sell ing better than jawbreakers. Rooivlt Said Okay Thereupon Michtom sent one of them lo the President and asked if he could call it the teddy bear. Roosevelt said it was okay with him although he doubted it would help business any. When you consider that some thing on the order of 160 million teddy bears have been sold since then, you begin to wonder if T.R. knew what he was talking about. As far as is known, only one of the 1903 teddy bears is still in existence Benjamin F.

Losing thi image: Philippines President Diosdado Macapagal's image as the com mon man's president has been blurred a bit by the three-month, first-class lour his three children are taking around the world. The opposition says this does not jibe with the ideal of "simple living" that Macapagal has preached. Macapagal usually has no trouble shedding opposition charges but this one may stick because it comes at a lime when the aver age citizen's cost of living is going up faster than income and the na tion is facing a threat of inflation.
