Director of German Youth Activities Here on Visit, Says -NazYouth en-Mindetr ' By Winston IL Taylor Staff Writer, The Statesman "Less trouble than expected" from German youth is the report of Hayes Beall, Salem man who has for the past two years been chief, of youth activities for military government in the American zonelDf Germany. Beall and his family returned to Salem during the past week for a brief visit before taking a new assignment. , little trouble has come' from undercover youth groups, Beall said, but the scouts have had some bothersome experience with na tionalise leaders. Principal diffi culties have stemmed from per sons now adults who spent many years in Hitler's youth group "Jugend. Although the program is pro cessing now. it cannot operate in a vacuum, in BeaU's opinion, and must, have a sturdy program and a goal to strive for. ' The effect of Hitler's regime has certainly not been erased, 'said Beall, but results of the youth program so far show a largely open-minded and teachable audi ence. He believes In the sincerity of a majority of the young German people, with whom "Americans are comparanveiy popular be cause of fear of the Russians."

The Amer ican method is that of "working with" approved, voluntary groups rather than direct leadership or sponsorship, according to Beall, and ofx encouraging democratic development. A similar program is followed in the British zone, but the i rencn are paternalistic, recog nizing only a few desirable groups. The soviet zone recognizes and permits only the "Free Ger man Youth" organization and out laws all others. German youth looks hopeful ly to the Marshall plan in the hope that it will help to bring the highly essential unity of west ern Europe. Physical destruction of the country is so great, be said, that it will take at least a gener ation to restore order. Progress is greatly hampered by shortages of materiel and food. Religions Groups Strong Beall, whose headquarters was first in Berlin then in Wiesbaden, said religious youth groups are now the strongest of about 10,000 groups formed and - approved, with nearly 1,000,000 members in all. Sports .groups come second, followed by trade unions. Mem bers have taken increased parti cipation in international youth conferences and are anxious to contact the rest of the world and end their isolation. The youth hostels are again functioning for touring groups, under leadership of Dr. Richard Schirrmann, founder of the hos tel movement and still active. The Boy Scouts have begun activity on a small scale, and badges can be worn if prior approval is granted, j The youth work began, accord ing to Beall, who went to j Ger many in October of 1945, by call ing on each "county" to form a youth committee from existing la bor, church and other organiza tions. These were to plan use of community resources to aid youth and to pass on proposed groups. Meeting Places Scarce . Meeting places and equipment are still scarce. The groups are anxious for magazines about youth activities. Beall and Mrs; Beall, the former Sarah Jane Dark, both graduates of Willamette university in 1932, and their two children, Anne 8 and David 3, were in Germany. They are visiting here with Mrs. BeaU's mother, Mrs. A. L. Dark, 1955 Ma ple ave. To be with the children she knew here before, Anne enrolled in the third grade at Highland school last week, even though her stay in Salem will be brief.

EL Lee Steiner, who died in Salem Saturday, had had numerous and widespread interests during his colorful, 78-year life time, but most outstanding was his 28 yean spent as superintendent of the Oregon State hospital. " More than any other person, Dr. Steiner was responsible for the institution's advancement from a small, unorganized unit to a modern nationally - recognized hospital. Despite frequent political opposi tion, he effected .use of humani tarian methods, advanced types of medical care and' development of a larger and better plant at the institution. Despite his professional enthu siasm, politics always held an in terest for Steiner. While practicing as a physician at Lakeview, he was elected a member of the leg islature representing Klamath, Lake, Crook and Wasco counties. He is best remembered as a law maker for his introduction, and committee on a fair employment practices committee in Washing ton, D.C.. Beall now expects to be connected with the educational de partment of the consumer cooper ative movement in the midwest subsequent enactment of a . law appropriating 815,000 to send se cret service men into the cattle range country where a sheep war had been in progress. His action caused termination of the trouble a short time later. Under Many Governors As hospital superintendent. Steiner served under every gover nor from Sylvester Penoyer to the late Earl SnelL from 1909 to 1937. His accomplishments at the hospi tal during his many years there are too numerous to list. He was probably proudest of the receiving ward, built at the hospital during its early days the finest of its type in the country at that time. Steiner was also responsible for development of the farm side of it t a a . a - in iBSuiuuon ana uaiiMuruieiuuu I New Years Eve at Normandy Manor or the surrounding land Into parks and flower gardens. He caused construction of modern dairy plants, pig pens, modern ' silos, poultry farms and large fruit or chards. These improvements made the institution partially self sus taining. Owned Ranch Lands At one time he was owner of more than 500 acres of valuable ranch lands in Marion, Polk. Jose phine and Harney counties, and operated all of them successfully. He was a Mason, Knight Tem plar, Shriner and 32nd degree Scottish Rite Mason: a member of the Elks, Knights of Pythias and Odd Fellows lodges. He was married in 1892 to Belie Golden of Salem and they became parents of three children. In ad dition to owning their Salem re sidence, the Steiners also main tain a home at Neskowin on the Pacific ocean. FIRST CITIZEN NAMED PORTLAND, Dec. 20-(-Sid-ney F.
