Page 2 The Newt-Review Mon., Jon. 13, 1964 Johnson Asks Change Immigration laws n WASHINGTON (UPI)-Presi dent Johnson personally urged key congressmen today to re vamp U.S. Immigration laws, but drew a cool response from ben. James 0. Eastland, chair man of the Senate Judiciary Committee. Johnson met at the White House with a large group of House and Senate members and leaders of private organizations espousing changes in the immi gration laws. The meeting was timed to co incide with the start of Senate hearings on a bill to liberalize immigration laws so that all would-be Americans would be Auto, Oil Truck In Headon Crash An automobile was heavily damaged but there were no in juries when the driver lost con trol and the car collided with a tank truck registered to Stand ard Oil Co. of California, Port land, Sunday at 7:45 p.m. one- fourth mile north of Myrtle Creek on U.

Superintendent Slated As Sutherlin Speaker : Tho' January meeting of the Sutherlin East Elementary PTA will bo held tonight at 7:30 in the library of the school. Ray- mono A. Mullen, superintend cnt of schools, will be the speaker during the evening's program. , During tho business session, with Mrs. Phyllis Morey. nrost- dent, in charge, there will be discussions of future projects as woll as reports by , several considered for admission to this country without reference to their national origin. Johnson strongly endorsed the measure as a matter of "com mon sense, common decency and ... for the common good." The President pointed out that current immigration stand ards were discriminatory in that annual quotas for such countries as Britain and West Germany are seldom used up while Italian and Greek pros' pective immigrees face enor mous backlogs. Sens. Philip A. Hart, D-Mlch and Kenneth B. Keating, R N.Y., both strongly supported the President s position. Eastland then was invited by the President to say a few words to the group assembled in the cabinet room. "We are going into this mat ter very carefully and expedi tiously," Eastland said, quickly turning away from the news- reel and television microphones set up for the occasion. After the meeting, Eastland was asked if he intended to sound "as detached and cold toward this matter as it oc curred to some of those pres ent?" With a smile, the Mississippi senator, said he had' not meant to give an impression of disin terest or detachment. During the day, Johnson scheduled a number of appoint ments and planned to keep a close eye on the Panamanian situation. The President planned a ses slon with Treasury Secretary Douglas union and Undersecre tary; Henry Fowler. He also will award National Science medals and had a 4:30 p.m. conference with AFL-CIO Presi dent George Meany.

Orthodox Church Leader Is Due For Vatican Talk VATICAN CITY (UPI) A high-ranking envoy of the East ern Orthodox Church was due here today for month - long talks with the Vatican on future steps toward Christian unity. The visit of Metropoli tan Athenagoras of Thistiron is an outcome of Pope Paul VI's pilgrimage to the Holy Land which high Vatican sources say will be followed up by trips to India and possibly the Unit ed States. Metropolitan Athenagoras is the personal envoy of Patriarch Athenagoras of Constantinople, spiritual head of the Eastern Orthodox Church, who held an historic meeting with Pope Paul in Jerusalem earlier this month. The success of the Holy Land pilgrimage apparently has en couraged the Pope to go to Bombay Nov. 28 to Dec. 10 for the Eucharistic Congress there. The purpose of the gathering of clerics and priests is to -glorify the consecrated bread and wine by public adoration and to in crease devotion, generally. The sources said the Pope might also visit the United States in the "not too distant future," possibly during tho World's Fair which will run April 22-Oct. 18 this year and about the same period in 1965. ft Th nouelas County Housing Authority is presently accepting applications for unassigned units in tho nour low income housing development scheduled to be ready for occupancy in Winston about Feb. 1.

Local chapters of the Oregon Dads' and Moth ers' clubs will host a panel of university officials at 8 p.m. in the library at Roseburg High School. Announced earlier was the scheduled appearance of John Warren of Eugene, state presi dent of dads' clubs; Don Wil liams, superintendent of coun selors at the university; Golda Wickham, dean of women; and Karl Onthank, executive secre tary of UO Dads' Clubs. The initial roster of officials was se cured to discuss the new stu dent conduct code recently an nounced at the university. The meeting was set up to coincide with a state-wide tour of War ren in a visitation to local dads' clubs. Interest evidenced on the tour by parents and students in re gard to the increase of tuition and new grade point average re quirements for admission to and staying on the university rolls, prompted the decision to include Dr. Lund in the Roseburg meet ing, according to the commit tee in charge of tonight's meeting. Because of the interest shown high school students planning tol attend the university are invit ed to come to the meeting with their parents The meeting will be devoted largely to a question and answer period. Refresh ments will be served. two-bedroom units and two one - bedroom units.

He said there are some vacan cies at this time. Over-all construction cost tor the Winston project was $221,000, including landscaping, utility systems, paved streets, side--walks, sewers and interior furn- - ishings of a range and refriger ator. Two of the units are in- dividual buildings and the other 14 are one-story duplexes. , The Winston project is locat- , ed on Ford Street, south of state Highway 42 and west of High way 99 BR. The 3.3-acre site was orininally undeveloped land lying between a residential and commercial area, well within walking distance to the Winston city center and major shopping areas. ' The units are a basic wood frame construction with board and batten exteriors, aluminum windows and shingle roofs, and constructed on concrete slabs. Dondero said the housing author ity called for high-grade con struction throughout because it is striving for a unit life of at least 40 years. This, plus the need to keep the maintenance cost at a minimum, makes it necessary to build the units as , soundly as possible, he points out. Two of the units are being held especially for the elderly and feature special safety in novations for such tennants. Applicants for these units must comply with housing au thority regulations for maximum income, and rentals are charged in accordance with income. Min imum rent fees will be $39 and maximum chargeable is $88. Dondero said maximum in come admission limits will be on this scale: One or two per sons, maximum income, $3,600 per year, three or four persons, maximum income of $3,900 per year, five or more persons, max imum income of $4,200 per year. Average rental is figured to be about $50, the administrator said. This includes payment of gas, water, sewage service and garbage collection. Tenants will pay for the electricity, directly to the power company. Persons wishing to apply for residency in one of the new units in . the, Winston project are . asked to-contact- the Douglas County -Housing Authority in Roseburg. .
