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. S. Highway 99.
The automobile was operated
ny Charles Thomas West, 42,
Koseburg, , according to - state
police. Ho was traveling, north,
lost control at the end of a
bridge and 'collided with the
; southbound truck headon in the
southbound lane of traffic'
, The truck, operated by Tom
my Frank Allen, Eugene, left
the scene under its own power,!
but the car recoived heavy
front-end damago and had to
be removed from the scene by
a wrecker. , .
West was cited for failure to
drive on the rl?ht side of the
highway. Passengers with West
were Lois Thomas and Robert
Thomas, both of 739 W. Whar
ton St., Ttoseburg.
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.

Lund To Address
Joint Meeting
OfU.O. Parents
Dr. Ernest Lund, chairman of
academic advisers at the Uni
versity of Oregon, will be an
additional speaker at a meeting
scheduled tonight in Roseburg
for all parents of University of
Oregon students. 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. Dondero
said ail families applying will
be given . consideration, and
those who qualify for the low-in
come housing but whose needs
cannot be filled at this time
will be held on file for vacancies
that may occur in the future.
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. .
