Top Priority For Dental School Seen Top priority for the proposed new state dental college in Port land, now listed in eighth place in the state board of higher educa tion construction program for the 1953-55 biennium, looked likely Friday at the Oregon leg islature. This was indicated by a mem ber of the joint ways and means subcommittee studying the state's building program. Cost of the new dental school was estimated at approximately $2,200,000. The committee was advised that the current dental college is inadequate to carry on nnA that extensive improvements are required in event a new plant is not approved, "it wouia oe a waste of funds to improve the current riant" a committee member averred. Statistics presented at tne meeting of the committee Friday showed that many prospective students have been compelled to enter dental schools in otner western states because of the limited facilities in Oregon. Th Vmilrlin? committee said it hoped to file its recommenda tions early next week. Tne com mittee members were reluctant to discuss the attitude of the state board of higher education in connection with the proposal to advance the dental college on the priority list. Reconstruction, of the center section of the Oregon State Hos pital here probably will top the priority list of the state board of control involving state institu tions.

Labor carried its battle against, the House-approved bill to ban organizational' picketing into a Senate labor committee hearing Friday, but made no mention of a substitute proposal suggested, two days ago by Gov. Paul L. Patterson. j i ; The committee was told by Donald S. Richardson, Portland attorney representing the; AFL and CIO, the organizational pick eting measure was "more restric tive than the Taft-Hartley pet" :- Richardson said it was a! "half way attempt" to set up ai labor relations board and would not prevent- employers from creating so-called company unions. He al so argued it would permit em ployers to block union organiza tion by influencing employes pending action on a 'petition,, for an election for certification. This. is an unworkable labor relations act" Richardson de clared. It answers no problems if any problems exist Organiza tional picketing as now conduct ed merely advertises tlie fact that a dispute of lawful, purpose ex ists." William J. Masters, also a Port land attorney,, paraded 11 em ployer representatives , whose testimony chiefly concerned pick eting activities at their establish ments in various parts -of . the' state. Masters said the controversial legislation is "not a matter of the employer and a union sitting down to bargain whether the employer's workers are to be handed over like sheep. "The employer has to sell his product," he added. "Unions should do the same kind of sell ing." The House had a busy after noon Friday. It approved propos als to create a commission to preserve, develop and protect the recreational, scenic and his torical values of the Columbia Gorge; require display of - the state flag on public buildings, and banning members of state commissions from accepting paid jobs under those commisions. Sen. Richard L. Neubergers bill to let the department of ag riculture ban bread softeners if the federal government finds them harmful went back to com mittee when opposition devel oped over the dependency pro vision. Rep. Alva Goodrich, Bend, said the state ought to act in dependently. The House state and federal affairs committee unanimously approved the senate-passed bill to ban billboards on future newly-constructed main highways, and also recommended defeat of a proposed constitutional amend ment permitting state institutions to be located outside Marlon County. 2 Youths Taken On Mquor Charge Two Salem youths, ages 17 and 19, were arrested by city police on charges of illegal possession of liquor early Friday morning.
