Recognition of Birth Details
Sought in Court by Citizens
Legal recognition of the date and place of their birth will be
- 'sought in Salem today by some 34 Marion County residents. They
' have filed aDDlications for delayed birth certificates.
Approximately every two months, Circuit Judge Rex Kimmell
' devotes a Saturday morning court session to such a group, who
want certificates now demanded for social security benefits, pass
ports and many government jobs.
-In court they will be sworn in
.'and testify as to the proofs they
: present to establish three things
date of birth, place of birth,
parents' names. All documents
must be at least five years old.
They include such things as
their children's birth certificates,
baptismal records, probate pa
pers, insurance papers, but the
most reliable is the family Bible.
At least two documents must be
presented for confirmation of the
information, and sometimes many
more are required. Foreign-born
persons must include naturaliza
tion papers.
Few of the certificate seekers
are young, because most areas
now have official birth records,
but this court has aided one teen
ager. Today's group is about -normal
size, but one recently had 50
persons. There are usually a few
in each group who fail to offer
" sufficient evidence and are grant-
, ed continuances.

Grazing Bill
Opposed
In Congress
WASHINGTON UFi Opponents
said Friday proposed livestock
grazing legislation would give
ranchers virtual ownership of na
tional forest lands and permit the
"plundering" of valuable natural
resources.
Conservationists, wildlife men
and some congressmen strongly
opposed the bill at a hearing before
a House Interior Subcommittee
Friday.
More will testify Saturday. Many
of the 35 opponents scheduled to
testify are expected to carry the
fight to a Senate Interior Subcom
mittee when it opens a hearing on
an identical bill Monday.
An official of the Izaak Walton
League nationwide conservation
group labeled as "brazen mis
representation" the testimony of
stockmen that a grazing law is
needed to give them security on
forest ranges.
Ranchers told the committee
Thursday the bill would give them
regulation by law instead of by
rules which are frequently
changed.
William Voigt Jr., Chicago,
league executive director, said the
committee "is being taken for a
fast ride on that business of in
security of tenure" because "live
stock operators have grazed the
forests as a permitted use for
more than half a century and they
have done well under this arrange
ment." He said the ranchers have "had
security of tenure such as is en
joyed by few businesses, agricul
tural or other kinds" and 71 per
cent have held their permits more
than 10 years.
Robert W. Sawyer, Bend. Ore.,
director of the American Forestry
Association, asked the committee
not to be hoodwinked by the
title tf the bill, which says:
"To provide for the revision of
the public land laws in order to
provide for orderly use, improve
ment and development of the fed
eral lands and to stabilize the live
stock industry dependent upon the
federal range, and for other pur
poses." He declared the bill actually
would prevent effective man
agement and create a tight mono
poly in the use of publicly -owned
grazing lands."
Sawyer argued that the bill
would do this by giving the ranch
ers the right to forever hold or
sell grazing permits and hinder
administration by the government
through appeals to the courts.
Other opposing witnesses includ
ed: Rep. Magnuson D-Wash. and
A. R. Bohoskey, Yakima, Wash.,
sheep rancher.
Truman Turns
Down Bid for
Labor Address
CHICAGO LfV-Ex-President Tru
man Friday turned down a bid to
address the International Ladies'
Garment Workers Union conven
tion because "this is no time yet
for me to explode."
ILG President David Dubinsky
told the 1,000 delegates attending
th annual convention here that he
had written Truman extending the
invitation and following up the
written bid with a telephone call.
"Mr. Truman told me," said Du
binsky, "that 'this is no time for
me to explode'. I asked him if I
could relate that to you delegates
' and he replied 'by all means'."
In his letter declining the invi
tation, which Dubinsky also read,
! Mr. Truman said: "I appreciate
the invitation extended to me to
address the ILGU convention. I
wis- I coulcj do so, but I am not
making any public appearances
until at least next fall. I certainly
appreciate your wanting me to
-ome and would want very much
o do so, but the time isn't ripe
tr me to make public appear--nces
such as you suggest. When
he time comes and I can turn
oose and if you still want me, I
will come to your meeting."
The last sentence, Dubinsky
said, was written in long hand as
if it were an after-thought.

showed nothing on Mollette. The
stolen car bore Washington lic
ense plates and the Illinois plates
were in the trunk, said police.

Wash., on a warrant charging
larceny by check.

8a Per Cent
Of Younger
Get Check-Up
r Only 85 per cent of Marion
County's first and ninth graders
bad physical examinations, and
only 42 per cent had dental ex
aminations, this year, the county
health executive committee' was
informed Thursday, j
! Mrs. Bernice Yeary, nursing su
pervisor, reported that this was
the report from 85 per cent of
the county's schools on the tests
which are expected to be taken
by all children entering grade
and high schools. Not compul
sory, tne examinations are in
most cases by private physicians
and dentists.
Pupils in schools outside Salem
had a better record than those in
the city, with 87 per cent phy
sical examinations to 70 per cent
and 50 to 42 per cent on dentaL
The committee also learned
from the State Board of Health.
that receipts of gamma globulin
in Oregon during May have been
only 1,000 cubic centimeters,
compared to 9,000 requested.
This resulted in smaller alloca
tions to county health depart
ments, from whom private phy
sicians can obtain the blood de
rivative in preventing or mini
mizing poliomyelitis, measles and
infectious hepatitis.
Statistical reports showed that
births during April were slightly
ahead of a year ago, 105 boys
and 111 girls to 102 and 108,
while deaths were only 69, com
pared to 89 a year ago.
This brought the year's total
of births so far to 839, or 48 be
hind 1952 at this point Deaths
totaled 292, compared to 316.
Heart disease was far ahead as
a cause of death, with 25 cases,
8 of apoplexy and 7 of cancer.
Communicable diseases during
April were dominated by 159
cases of measles. Others with nu
merous cases were German
measles 43, chickenpox 34, in
fluenza 31 and mumps 26.
