Due chiefly to the ballyhoo of
the Portland Journal and Senator
Lew Wallace enough signers to
a rtetition were obtained so a
measure will go on the November
ballot requiring the state to take
over Camp White hospital and use
it as a state institution, presum
ably for the mentally ill.
The agitation was based on re
ports of conditions at the present
state hospitals which are being
corrected as rapidly as workmen
can put up the buildings which
were authorized starting as far
back as 1941.
The objections to state acquisi
tion were so overwhelming that
Governor Snell vetoed a take-over
bill in 1947. A special committee
of very competent persons investi
gated the project and gave a
strong adverse report. In spite of
the report Senator Wallace rode
his hobby and so did the Port
land Journal; and now the people
will vote on whether to take on
this big white elephant which the
state doesn't need and can't use
without heavy expense or not.
Though it is owned by the gov
ernment, the veterans' adminis
tration has resisted taking it over
for a domiciliary institution be
cause of the expense required in
making it suitable for such pur
pose. Oregon senators are trying
to force it on the VA and may
succeed. But let the government
keep it; don't hang it on the state.

Dewey Stassen
Aides Haggle
Over Debate
PORTLAND, Ore.. May 13.-;p)
-The proposed debate between
Thomas E. Dewey and Harold E.
Stassen came no nearer reality to
day despite a series of meetings
between aides of the presidential
aspirants.
The candidates agreed earlier
this week to debate, but aides said
fundamental differences" still ex
ist over terms of the debate.
The Dewey camp insisted on a
radio debate on the question of
outlawing communism. Stassen
headquarters demanded a public
platform debate on til Issues of
the campaign "in the best tradi
tions of the Lincoln-Douglas de
bate." Dewey representatives said In a
prepared statement that the Stas
sen demand was a "campaign
trick to cover Stassen's contem
plated refusal to debate" the com
munism issue.
The Stassen camp took a simi
lar view of Dewey's stand, and
aid, "We hope Governor Dewey
will reconsider his position.'
They left the way open for fur
ther meetings tomorrow.

By Winston H. Taylor

Acceptance of a proposed $50,

with the Marion county health
department was announced
Thursday by County Judge Grant

."he grant would be made over

tures are sufficient the measure
will go on the ballot at the No

The proposal directs the state
board of control to acquire the
abandoned army installation for
use as a mental hospital. The prop
erty is owned by the war assets
administration. Legislation is now
pending in congress which would
transfer the hospital, located near
Medford, to the federal veterans
administration.
The proposal is similar to a bill
approved at the 1947 legislature

Levels Attack
On GOP Policy
By Lester Cour
lUff Writer. th Statesman
The avowed objective of the re
publican party to destroy every
remaining phase of Franklin D.
Roosevelt's New Deal will doom
the west if the GOP is swept into
power In this year's election, Her
bert Maw, democratic governor of
Utah, predicted in, a Salem speech
Thursday night.
Maw leveled a strong attack on
the republican party In a 90-mln-ute
address before a large crowd
including number of democratic
candidates at a pre-primary rally
in the Salem armory. He was In
troduced by State Senator Lew
Wallace, Portland, democratic
candidate for Oregon's governor
ship. Luis Martine-Lally. Salem
6th precinct committeeman, con
ducted the session.
"Regardless of campaign prom
ises to the west," Maw stated, "all
republican candidates will destroy
the gains made by the New Deal.
Western reclamation and hydro
electric projects - - largely a pro
duct of the New Deal - - will be
virtually halted if the republicans
keep their word."
The present republican congress.
Maw said, has shown the party
meant what it promised. Many re
clamation projects, he said, have
practically been stopped by recent
congressional slashes. "The re
publicans will destroy the New
Deal and with It the prosperity of
the west," Maw warned.
"If we do not have reclamation
and Irrigation, we do not have
prosperity in the west," he assert
ed. "We must have dams for Irri
gation and power. The republicans
are effecting a false economy; the
government has never lost money
on any power or reclamation pro
ject - - they have paid for them
selves. Should this continue, I
fear for the future of the west."
(Additional details page 2)
A desired annual budget level
of $100,585 set up by the founda
tion would be reached and pass
ed by the grants combined with
the county's share, according to
Judge Murphy. And, by the time
the five years had passed, the
county would be in a position
to continue the program at that
level (with state aid) by increas
ing the health department's bud
get not more than the legal 6
per cent each year.
Using as a base the current
health budget of approximately
$85,000, Murphy said expendi
tures f for the first year of ope
ration with the grant would be
$113,482, Including $25,lKr from
the foundation and the proposed
$88482 (still to be approved by
the budget committee) contribut
ed, by the county, and other already-participating
groups, such
as Salem and the Salem school
board.- - -. ,

Stassen Adds
To Saturday's
Salem Agenda
Harold E. Stassen will make at
least three public appearances
during his Saturday visit in Salem,
Jim Collins, Stassen manager In
Salem, announced Thursday night.
Stassen will arrive by plane at
2 p. m., and will make a public
address from the steps of the Mar
ion county courthouse at 2:15 p.m.
He will go by special bus to Inde
pendence where he will speak at
4:15 and then to Dallas for a 5:30
appearance.
Returning to Salem, Stassen will
dedicate the new flag pole in front
of the new home of Capital post

only personnel and travel ex
penses would be included, $14,
100, $10,600, $7,100 and $3,600.
The state would provide $1,000
during the second year of the
program and add $1,000 annually
to a limit of $4,000, which would
then be maintained. Both state
and county portions are subject
to "budgetary limitations" accord
ing to the agreement already
signed .by the county court and
which , Murphy said the state
board had approved.
The Judge computed that if all
agencies presently contributing
increased the health budget by
the legal 6 per cent each year,
the department's budget "would
be $88,382 in 1948-49, then rise
to $93,117 and $96,123, pass the
suggested standard the r fourth
year with $103,423 and go 'on up
to; $109,060.
If the grant Is made and the
agencies follow such a budgetary
plan, he said, the total amounts
available - annually - would rise
from $113,482 In the first year
(including the $7,500 for equip
ment) to $116,660 in the fifth
year,

2 Salem Families to Sail
Own Ketch to South Seas
By Don Dill
Staff Writer. th Statesman
Trade winds, bright lagoons and exotic beaches of the southwest
Pacific islands will be tourist attractions for two Salem families sail
ing their own ketch to Tahiti and Hawaii this summer.
Leaving Salem May 29 are Mr. and Mrs. Marvin Lewis, their
daughter Justine; Mr. and Mrs. Jlichard Notdurft. 220 E. Myers St.,
and Nancy Fox, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. T. Fox of North Bend,
formerly of Salem.
The Lewis' have sold their
home at 650 S. Liberty st. and
purchased a 35 - foot - ketch,
"Frieda," of Los Angeles. The
yacht, acquired last December,
was formerly the "Sea Wolf" and
has had many colorful cruises
since being built by Capt. Mathew
Turner of San Francisco. At one
time it was used in the China
trade and was named the "Smug
gler." Complete renovating of the
ketch includes a Universal "4"
auxiliary engine, fitting with all
new rigging and four new water
tanks. A balustraded mahogany
rail, and a carved .and gilded ma
hogany trail board have also been
added, according to Lewis.
Planned for Years
Details of the adventure have
been worked on for years by the
Lewis' and final plans call for
leaving Los Angeles June 5. Three
weeks of favorable sailing should
land the party in the rarely vis
ited Marquesas islands about 3000
miles southwest of the U. S. main
land. Special permission to stay
more than a few days at the Mar
quesas had to be obtained by Lew
is from the French governor of
the large group of small islands in
that area. The Marquesas are out
of the regular trade lanes and us
ually only watering stops are per
mitted. Another 1,000 miles of favorable
sailing will take the party to the
Society islands and their destina
tion of Papeete, Tahiti. These col
orful islands lie about 2,000 miles
northeast of New Zealand, Just
above the Tropic of Capicorn, and
belong to France. On the return
trip they will sail to the Mar
quesas islands and then northwest
to Hawaii, which is about 2,000
miles to the north and 20 degrees
longitude west. From Hawaii the
Frieda will circle on a northerly
course to the mainland, and home
in time for the two girls to resume
their schooling in the falL

area of Long Beach where Justine

wife, Mary, a cousin of Marvin
Lewis, is a laboratory technician
for Dr. Marian Follis Maya Al
though Lewis plans to go into
business in Long Beach he will
