McKinley suc ceeds Springfield Mayor Kdward Harms Jr. Tuesday the slate included dis cussion of tm'fic and parking. Community development, housing, law enforcement and comine cial center developments. The chief FBI agents in fort land, Joseph Thornton, urged del egates to put fore life into polite work. Vern Hill, head of the Slate De partment of Motor Vehicles, dis cussed with de'egat s a tiio o traffic law amendments to he submitted to the It I Legislature They include a fixed maximum League's hacking of annexation as Sjjeed on highways but at the same time retaining the basic rule law; changing the chemical; test regulation to permit verh.il or Implied consent f r U sis lor alcohol in the blood in cases of i enic:i l i cities within the 18 coun- Kour resolutions were scheduled for action today. These included i, e by the mayor of Medford asking the State Highhay Com mission to establish an office to deal with city problems from throughout the stale. Mayor John Snyder told delegates Tuesday that there is some dissatisfaction among officiuls "with highway decisions which result in no prog ress of interest to their cities." Snyder urged a smoother co ordinating system between the Department and cities as a way to work out many current "trou l.lesome problems."'. Another resolution calls for larger sha es of Oregin Liquor Control Commission revenues for cities. The OLCC now parcels out III or cent to cities hut the l eague wants 15 per cent. .eg'slalio.n in 12 to aflirm the a desirable way of dealing with invite area problems is provided in a third resolution.

Crocker writes "J.

"If Franklin D. Roosevelt he came, as war went on. Stalin's favorite fellow traveller, it was not necessarily because any iile ological conversion occurred. Galling To Forrtstal "Vhe pro-Russian utmosphe e in Washington was galling to many, including the frustrate J Secretary of Navy, James V. Kor restal. Ilis diaries reveal that in September, 1044, he had written to a friend that If any American suggests that we act in accord witn our own interests, he is apt to be called a . . . Fascist or Im perialist, while if uncle Joe ' Stal in i suggests that he needs the Kallic provinces, half of 1'olond, all of Bessarabia and access to the Mediterranean, all hands in Wash ington agree that he is a fine, frank, candid and generally de lightful fellow.' Such was the frame of mind Roosevelt took to Yalta." The dust cover of "Roosevelt's Road to Russia" says: "Many people will be made angry by this book." That is a sound and reasonable prediction, especially if the ques tions raised by Crocker become involved in next year's president ial campaign.

G. Duback, proles sor of political science at Lewis and Clark College. Portland, say, What we used to call fr.nliers are gone there are no new material frontiers on our earth. However, there are tremendous new frontiers in the areas of ornduction of goods, social and nlernalioiiji n-lati.r.s, and the heme and family." Automation and increasing ef ficimcy in production are creat ing problems in the labor field. Dubach pointed out. If automa tion creates a 30-hour work week, what will workers do with the rest of the week, he questioned. This is a real new frontier facing us today, he dcc!a-od. International eMail's ere com plicated today by problems' of race, religion, and communism. Dubach reminded the group. This is creating another crucial front ier facing us today. "Are we going to be smart enoufih to compromise on pro cess without compromising on principle," Dubach asked? As we deal with communism, we are constantly faced with the need to compromise, he explain ed. But can we do this with out losing our way of life, with- thcr protest of law and order's ar rival in Deadwood. enough ta be trusted with our country," he challenged the gicup. Maintaining real family life when 22 million of our workers are women is another challeng ing frontier facing us today,, he dulaiid. Our American way of 'i'e las d ve'oned around the idea that the woman is more im po.lant in the home than the man. . Can we maintain our traditional idea of "home and mother" with iiu iiy women working. Dubach j-red. This a frontier where real effort v. ii! need to he .exerted. Vast new frontiers are also opining ,n areas of human re ntiers. "Is it g:ing to be possible in i his tremendous concentration of population today to keep the individual ireprrtant, to give him i sense of belonging and of val ue." Dubach as!:ed. "This is a real issue. Is it pos sible to preserve individualism in a world like this, or are we going to become merely cogs on wheels in a giant machne that turns on'y when the govern ment pushes a button?" These are just a few of the new frontiers that are in your luture today, Dubach concluded. They are areas lhat need explora tion, definition, and conquering.
