Sot., Sept 21, 1963 SIAC Draws Organizational Fiscal Office Structure SALEM (UPI)-Oreanization of the State Industrial Accident Com mission (SIAC) was criticized in a scathing report issued Friday by the Legislative Fiscal Office. The 10-page report, presented to the Legislative Fiscal Committee by principal analyst Cleighton Penwell, was immediately chal lenged by SIAC chairman William Calahan. Questioning by legislators after the report was read brought out: The commission was thinking of going back to the reorganiza tion plan that was junked when two new commissioners were ap pointed by the governor. That the Finance and Admin istration Department was aware the old reorganization was not working, and is not convinced the present plan is working well, either. A charge by Callahan that the old reorganization plan "was the brainchild of commissioners Sid ney B. Lewis and Emily P. Lo gan," who were fired in June by Gov. Mark Hatfield.

(UPI Telephoto) 'SPACE AGE' REFORMS Pope To Update Roman 'Curia' VATICAN CITY (UPI) - Pope Paul VI, In a momentous step to wards bringing the Roman Cath olic Church into line with the space age, said today he will modernize the , ultra-conservative Roman Curia. The pontiff told members of the Curia, the Vatican's adminis trative organization, that he in tends to make it more interna tional in membership and more progressive in outlook. "Various reforms will be need ed," he told members of the vari ous "departments" of the Curia during a special audience today. "They will certainly be pondered, they will be outlined according to venerablo and reasonable tradi tions on one hand, according to thn needs of the times on the other." ' Drop The Superflous The object of theso reforms, he said, is "to drop what is passing or superfluous in the forms and norms that govern the Roman Curia and to bring about what is vital and providential ..." The action by Pope Paul could rank almost with the ecumenical council as a move for bringing the Roman Catholic Church up to date. The Curia long has been the stronghold of the so-called "con servatives" of the church. Since it is the controlling body, its pol icies go a long way towards do- ' The reforms, the Pope told members during the audience, "will be formulated and promul- Augustus Paret Augustus LcComptc (Gus) Paret, 77, of Yoncalla, died Sept. 20 at a Eugene hospital after a lengthy illness.

An updating of the Curia could mean tremendous changes within the administration of the church although naturally dogma and matters of faith and morals re main the same. gated by the Roman Curia itself." "The Roman Curia thus will not be afraid of being recruited under a wider supranational con cept or of being educated through a more accurate ecumenical prep aration . . . "The Roman Curia will not be jealous of temporal prerogatives of past limes, or of outward forms that arc no longer ade quate to express and impress true ond lofly religious meanings.

'Particulars' Demanded ' When Callahan challenged some conclusions drawn by the report, nuuse speaxer Clarence Barton, D-Coquillc, ordered the commis sioners to prepare a "bill of par- ui-uiars on any inaccuracies. The legislative committee also directed the Finance and Admin istration Department to review "the former and present organi zational structure" of SIAC and present "the department's present opinion regarding the necessity for future change." Penwcll's report noted a sur vey, completed in April, 1962, which led to reorganization, cost $50,367, and pointed to net annual savings of $180,724. "However, the survey report did not include the fact that it would cost $161,030 to affect the savings . . . .'.' Plan Was Resisted Penwell also noted "the reorgan ization was subject to intense in ternal resistance ... .in several instances, major deficiencies in the organizational plan became known, but no positive action was taken to correct them.

Farm Croups Oppose Russ Wheat Export WASHINGTON (UPI) -The American Farm Bureau Federa tion and the National Grange, the nation s two largest farm organi zations, said today they were op posed at present to exports of government-subsidized wheat to the Soviet Union. Spokesmen for the two groups added, however that the issue of possible wheat sales to Russia will be reviewed by Farm Bureau and Grange members this fall. Under present regulations, ex ports of subsidized crops to Rus sia is not permitted. And, at pres ent, all wheat exports are subsi dized with government payments covering the gap between the American support price and the lower world market price. Russia's recent purchases of wheat from Canada and Australia have produced speculation about possible sales of American wheat to the Soviet Union. Some congressmen from wheat states have called for a change in government policy to allow for such sales at the same subsidized export price used on all foreign sales of American wheat. Administration farm officials said that no wheat sales propos als had been received from the Soviet Union. But there have been rumors of feelers in private trade circles. In a related development, the State Department disclosed Fri day that Poland has expressed in terest in entering into a new agreement for purchase of U. S. wheat. Last year Poland imported ap proximately 2.5 million tons of grain, about 1 million tons of it from the United States, and Pol ish sources have indicated the country's annual grain deficit is still about the same. Poland and Yugoslavia arc exempt from the U. S. wheat export restrictions that apply to other Soviet block nations. i 3 1 mm mm ; 3 ,i - - s IIWi . km fmm & 1 P 0 J 0 f!
