Maurine Neuberger of Oregon and Sen. Cooper of Kentucky have joined in the introduction in Congress of legisla tion to extend the federal billboard con-(y-ol; program for two more years. I Seventeen senators have added .their dames to the proposal, including Sen. Jlorse of Oregon. The program originally was offered by Sen. Neuberger's late husband, Kichard L. Neuberger, to whose office she suc Jeeded by appointment and later by dec ision. . ; To date, Sen.. Neuberger reports, sev enteen states, including Oregon, have Sntered into agreements with the Sec. of Commerce for billboard control. New Hampshire and New Jersey, she says, ire in the process of negotiating agree ments. The California Legislature pres 8ntly is considering legislation. Califor nia has the largest mileage of interstate highway of any of the 50 states. , The late Richard Neuberger was vigor ously opposed- to the presence of bill boards adjacent to our major highways.' Such billboards, he contended were very unsightly. He also' held that they were -onducive to accident. As United Stales senator he offered and secured passage of legislation which would add one-half of one per cent to federal contributions on interstate highways, provided states re viving such benefits would pass legisla tion barring billboards within GOO feet of the right of way. This legislation will expire this June 80 unless the deadline is extended. The bill in which Sens. Neuberger and Morse join would strike out "J9G3" and insert "1965." The program would remain un- . THE LIGHTER SIDE: By DICK WEST WASHINGTON (UPl)-At first Blanco, "AU-1120" looks liko the noise you make when you inccio. Actually, however, It Is a chem ical symbol, and by this time next year it may be almost as lamtllar to the American public . as LS II FT. In chomlslry, AU-1120 alnnds for Goldwatcr. In politics, what it stands fur depends on whore you stand. And in the novelty business, it standi for money. At the moment, AU-1120 is about the best selling item in the po litical campaign material line. In fact, it Is about the only item that is selling at the moment. Or so I was told by Earl But ler, a big button man from Chicago. An Exhibitor Butler's firm, the Green Duck Co., is one of the exhibitors show ing their wares at a specialty advertising guild display hero this week. I stopped by the exhibit after receiving a press release report ing that It would offer a preview ut the buttons, badges and other political advertising novelties be ing created for the 1964 campaign. I must say, however, that in some respects it was more like a review than a preview. Butler's booth, for instance, displayed a number of "Dick and Pat" but tons. "Good Heavens!," I said. "Don't tell me they haven't given up: yet." Butler hastily assured me that lie was not anticipating a heavy demand for Nixon buttons next year. Goldwator Crowd Actlvt Kxrept for the Goldwater crowd, he suld, the supporters of prospective presidential candi dates thus far havo ordered very little campaign material. Therefore, in order to display a compU'to line of the types of material he has available, he was obliged to borrow a few samples ; nom tne aremves. Most of the campaign gim micks displayed at the exhibit uould he familiar to tho aver age voter, but (or lapel pins and auto bumper stickers there is a shiny new material called "re fraction grating" that Is guaran teed io attract attention. One booth featured shopping; bags imprinted with advertising and political slogans, one of which read "Be Happy, Go Rockv."

FRIDAY, JUNE 28, 1963 More Money ' ' :hanged except for the extension of time ivithjn which agreements may be rcach sd. This proposal to restrict use of bill boards along our highways has aroused much emotion. This emotion is both for jihI against. The federal government pays 90 per :ent of the construction cost of interstate highways. Here in Oregon we are receiv ing federal appropriations for use in re building the old Pacific Highway High way 99-which is being made into one of the Nation's finest four-way freeways, Interstate 5. By entering into an agreement on regu lations of billboards to conform to the federal requirement, Oregon is getting a good deal more money than it would re jeive otherwise. People who object to the clutter of bill boards, and who appreciate the scenic beauties often obscured by glaring adver tisements, loudly praise the legislation and its purpose. ; ' On the other hand outdoor advertisers are fighting restrictive legislation at ev ery turn. An argument liberally used against federal and state legislation calling for :ooperation with the federal government in this respect is that we're being "brib ed" into acceptance of a federal control, surrendering slate rights because there by we can gain a few dollars. In answer, the federal government con tends that as it is contributing 90 per sent of the cost it has some right to reg ulate the surroundings and can best do so by rewarding cooperative states. Reader Opinions Suprema Court Decision Should Draw Opposition To The Editor: ' ' ' I think there are a good manv Christiana who still are shocked because of the Supreme Court rul ing of religion taken out of schools. 1 think that IL Is time we all stand up and he counted befort we let somelliing huppen. Wo have the advantage over the atheist. Wo have tho Lord on our side. I just wonder how long it will he before they decide Io take the "One Nation, under God," out of the Pledge of Allegiance? When they do it will be another win for some and a greater loss for Chris tians even greater loss for all humanity. There is only one thing this brings to my mind at present, a quotation I read once. It holds truth. It goes: "Silence is golden, they say, but sometimes it may be just plain yellow. Speak out for the Lord." When I was in school I learned my fourth "R." I learned manv things from it, although 1 didn't realize it then. When my teacher read frum the Bible it was with authority. It was God's authority. Hut I felt that what she had to say was important enough for her to demand uur silence. This same quality was given to important mat ters. Religion is that fourth "It." With out it why try to learn the other 'It s ' which arc designed to teach us to get along in this world, to train to be good doctors or whatev er trade, occupation or profession would lie of nenetit to mankind? Perhaps there are others who have opinions on this matter. I'm sure this Is tho time to say how we feel. We've seen the results when we leave it to others. I said oneo before, and l m still saying It, only in a larger sense this lime: "the family (nrotlier hood of America) that prays to gether stays together." 1 might also add: "United we stand, divided wo fall." If I ve stepped on someone s toes, 1 hope it woke them up. Hut I didn't write this letter to hurt anyone. Mrs. Earl Oldttcld mm N. W. Mulholland Roseburg, Ore.

VY " By PHIL NEWSOM When the United States and Spain negotiated their 1953 agree ment on U.S. naval and air basei in Spain, both sidea won import ant benefits. The United States won a valu able forward base against Com munist aggression and Spain a much-needed economic shot in the arm plus a start toward re entry into the family of nations, Mow, amid considerable se crecy but with some of the facts known, they are approaching a re-negotiation of the agreement which expires in September. Both sides seek certain gains. A somewhat similar agreement with Portugal on the strategic U.S. base in the Azores already has expired, with negotiations at present reported deadlocked but by no means abandoned. Both the Spanish and the Por tuguese agreements bear heavily on U.S. strategic planning, espe cially since President Charles de Gaulle's snub of the Atlantic Al liance, the gain in Communist voting strength in Italy and U.S. hopes for a mixed-nation naval force based on the nuclear-tipped Polaris missile. - In The Day's News - By FRANK The news today? It is perhaps the strangest news since the world began. In GERMAN cities, the Presi dent of the United Slates is get-! ing the most wildly enthusiastic reception ever given in Europe to the head of a foreign stale. It is CERTAIN that he is re ceiving the warmest reception ever given in Europe by a conquered people to the leader of their con qucrurs. . In Bonn, the capital of the West German Republic, the Germans turned out in droves to greet him with wildly enthusiastic cheers. In Frankfurt, the dispatches tell us, he was littcrly engulfed in a human sea. Ilrlore making his speech, he walked into the crowd and shook hands with some of the people. At times, he literally dis appeared from view. Then his head would rcanpe. , turning from side In side as the German crowd wildly chanted his name. In West Berlin this morning, he was almost deilied. He tells the West Berliners in German: "Ich bin cin Berliner" (1 am a Berlin er! and they go literally wild with enthusiasm. Why Is the President of the United States in Germany? Why ,n particular is he in Western Germany? Well, he Is there because of the seeming madness of a strange and mystic Frenchman Charles de Gaulle. President of France. France's president has seen tit to cast doubt upon the integrity of America's leadership in Western Europe and the PERMANENCE of American assistance in resisting' the spread of COMMINISM throughout Europe. President Kennedy Is there to re assure the people of free Western Europe that we will NOT leave ! them to stew in the corrosive juice of communism. He is there to tell them that to prevent such a ca tastrophe we will risk the nuclear' destruction of our own country. That's about the long and tlie short of it. What of De Gaulle? He is a strange and mystic char acter. From lime to time, France, produces such characters. There was Napoleon, for instance j De Gaulle is a soldier. He knows v jn Mm m Portugual, Spain Dicker With U. S. All of these conditions would seem to be cards in Generalis simo Francisco Franco's hands. There are indications the Span ish asking price is not cheap. ! The 19,)3 agreement gave the United States the use of three air bases by the Strategic Air Com mand, the big naval base at Rota and other installations includ ing naval depots, radar sites and a pipeline system. ' There is evidence now that the United States would like to make the Rota base available to NATO submarines carrying nuclear bal listic missiles. Seeks NATO Membership In return, Franco wants cither Spanish membership In NATO or, at the least,' closer political ties with the United States. Spanish . membership In NATO lias in the past been' adamantly opposed by' the' low countries, Denmark and Norway and, to a lesser degree, by Britain. Spain also wants an increase in economic aid which since 1953 has totaled more than a billion dollars, plus modern military equipment including rockets and missiles. On :ts part, the United States JENKINS the importance of the ancient maxim: DIVIDE AND CONQUER.

Aid Must Stop It further has warned Spain that, because of the unfavorable outflow of U. S. gold, "free mili tary aid to Spain will have to stop. That, instead, she will expect Spain to spend some $250 million of her own money on new equip ment. The deadlock in the negotiations witli Portugal is on an issue less complex but equally difficult. The 20-year-old agreement with Portugal expired last Dec. 31 but use of the base which it i strale gic link with Europe and Africa, has continued. Boiled down to simplicities, the Portuguese arc insisting that the United States abandon its support in the United Nations of the Afro Asian jiations demanding indepen dence for Angola and Mozambi que, Portugal's two big territories in Africa. Both the Portuguese and the Spanish negotiations go far be yond the mere question of bases. By United Press Inttrnatienal Today is Fridav, June 28. the 179th day of 1963 with 186 to follow.
