2 The News-Review, Roseburg, Ore. Wed., Aug. 28, 1963 Congress Expected To Beat Railroad Strike Deadline WASHINGTON (UPI) Con gress was expected today to beat a midnight strike deadline and enact legislation to avert a na tionwide railroad strike. A House leader predicted ap proval of a Senate-passed bill to refer the two major issues in the rail dispute firemen's jobs and composition of train crews to an arbitration board for a binding decision. The Senate approved the meas ure to President Kennedy for his signature, hopefully before 12:01 a.m. Thursday when the railroads plan to put strike-triggering new work rules into effect. Barring any last-minute legisla tive snags, government officials predicted there would be no strike. The railroad unions have threatened a walkout if the work rules are put into effect. Expects No Trouble Chairman Oren Harris, D-Ark., of the House Commerce Com merce Committee, who is charged with guiding the bill to passage, told a reporter: "I don't think we'll have any trouble." Two House members who had supported union opposition to the legislation said they would vote for the Senate-approved bill as the best solution available, Rep. John B. Bennett, R-Mich., said the bill was "the best way out of an unsatisfactory and al most impossible situation." Rep. Harlcy 0. Staggers, D-W. Va., said the measure was not too far from the stand taken by the unions last week. Sets Up Beard As passed by the Senate, the legislation would' set up a seven man board two each repre senting the railroads and the unions and three representing the public to arbitrate the two key issues.. The arbitration . award would be in effect for two years. The remaining issues in the four-year-old dispute would not be subject to arbitration. But there could not be a strike or lockout over these issues for at least 180 days after the measure became law. If the measure clears Congress, it would be the first time in the memory of labor experts that Congress has ordered arbitration of a peacetime labor dispute. Senate passage came after two days of bitter debate and just hours after the nation's railroads ordered an embargo on freight shipments as soon as a strike began. In an afternoon of voting, the Senate: Rejected, 75 - 15, an amend ment by Sen. Wayne Morse, D Ore., to provide a special board to make settlement recommends tions to the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC). President Kennedy had recommended refer ring the entire dispute to the ICC lor two years. Adopted, 75-17, a streamlin ing amendment making the Sen ate bill conform closely to the House bill. This was offered by Sen. Gale McGee, D-Wyo. Rejected, 88-3, an amendment by Sen. Jacob K, Javits, R-N.Y., to permit the government to seize struck railroads and operate them under a court-appointed re ceiver. Rejected by voice vote an amendment by Sen. Jack Miller, R-Iowa, requiring the President to certify that all Railway Labor Act provisions had been ex hausted before the emergency act could apply. Rejected, 91-2, another Morse substitute which would involve ar bitration on the main issues, coupled with partial government seizure if a strike developed.

Sanders. Another man, Orval Almo Baker, 39, formerly of Myrtle Creek, was sentenced to serve three years in the state penitentiary on a similar charge of contributing to the delin quency of a 15-year-old girl. Both men previously had plead ed guilty to the respective charges and were awaiting pre-sentence in vestigations. Baker originally pleaded innocent then later chang ed his plea to guilty to a Grand Jury indictment, in which he was charged with "commanding and persuading" a 15-year-old girl to "travel from her father and moth er away from the city of Myrtle Creek" on April 5.

Pippin was accused in the Dis trict Attorney's information with immoral practices with a 15-year-old girl which, the charge stated, "tended to cause her to become a delinquent child." In other actions, Judge Sanders dismissed a charge of unlawful use of fireworks against Jerry Lynn Wilson, 18, Myrtle Creek, after Wil son had pleaded guilty to the charge. The judge stated that a juvenile with Wilson actually had commit ted the act, and that the juvenile had been dealt with.

One the 1963 legislature's $60 million tax hike measure has been referred to a special elec tion Oct. IS. Another 202 carried either the emergency clause or a specific effective date. The emergency clause measures went into effect as soon as they were signed by Gov. Mark Hatfield. Most of these were appropria tion measures which allotted money for operation of state agencies and departments for the 1963-65 biennium. Department budgets became effective on July 1. A total of 1,413 bills were in troduced during the 141-day, 1963 session. Of these, 654 were ap proved by both houses and sent Exhibit Features Area Scenic Spot One of Douglas County's moun tain beauty spots is being featur ed in an exhibit which this county is preparing at the Oregon State Fair in Salem. The exhibit will be a replica of Clearwater Falls, a scenic water fall and campground area located in (he Diamond Lake area. Douglas County Fair personnel have been busy preparing the ex hibit since the close of the local exposition. Participants in. the work to date have included Bert Alien by, fair manager; Jack Smith, as sistant manager; Marvin Papst, Claude Northcraft, Sonja Isaacson and Del Plant. Sonja Isaacson has done much if the art work and design in con nection with the project, the local fair office reported. "Purpose of the exhibit is to give the state fairgoer a glimpse of typical beauty in Douglas County," a fair official said. Visitors at the exhibit will be given brochures which tell about the county. The state fair opens Friday and continues 'through Labor Day. Eighteen counties have registered for exhibiting space at the fair. A panel of three judges will view the booths on opening day and award $100 to each county that scores 70 of a possible 100 points. to the governor for signature. Hatfield vetoed nine, and al lowed 25 to become law without his signature. Others OK'd In addition to the 645 bills that were passed by the legislature and allowed to become law by the governor, lawmakers approved three proposed constitutional changes, and 67 other measures such as resolutions and memor ials. ' The legislature's major meas ure, the tax increase bill, was the center of attention and heated controversy, and finally emerged as a compromise which Hatfield would not sign. Public opposition was climaxed with circulation of referral pe titions, which resulted in the call for the special election. The big measure which did not survive the legislature was a proposed new state constitution. It won House approval, but died in the Senate. Oregonians will vote next year on a proposal to remove the death penalty from t h e state's constitution. Among the more significant laws was a new subdivision regu-! lation measure designed to curb fraudulent and misleading land promotion. One of the new laws extends from the present three days to; seven days the waiting period for marriages. Lawmakers hoped this, "sobering up" period would cut down on the number of impulse marriages, and thus cut the' state's divorce rate.
