Dunes Area Object of Three Pieces of Legislation Register-Guard, Eugene, Oregon 8A Sunday, May 21, 1961 Trial Interest Still Intense After Month By ERIC GOTTGETREU Of the Asioclatcd Press . JERUSALEM The intense interest of the people of Israel in the Adolf Eichmann trial has not lessened after more than a month of testimony. . . Several of the country's 25 daily newspapers have increased the number of pages to print the full reports demanded by their readers. The Israel broadcasting station "Kol Israel" carries long reports in its news bulletins and broad casts extensive excerpts of the day's highlights each evening. The stauon gets many requests to restore the daily live broad casts direct from the court room, instituted at the beginning of the trial. The state radio refused' "be cause this would tend to give the proceedings the aspect of a show trial." The seats reserved for the gen eral public in the court room, are always occupied. The 700,-seat "Ratisbonne Hall" near the court, especially set aside for TV screening of the trial, are filled daily. It doesn't seem to be lust a lust for sensation that impels Israelis to follow the trial reports. There seems to be an inner urge to learn as much as possible about the gruesome reality of the fate of European Jews under the Nazi regime the reality which forms the background of the trial. Many in Israel lost relatives in the Nazi pogroms. Said one Israeli "How can we complain that the other nations of the world didn't, know very much about it and were inclined to forget all of it? Many of us Jews, too, had only a general over-all picture, but never before has the story been told so com pletely, with so many illustrative details, with such a thorough doc umentation to prove the truth." There is much public discus sion on the trial and its implica tions. The number of those who were critical of holding it In Is rael has doubtessly diminished. The quiet competent way it is be ing directed by the president of the court, Justice Moshe Landau, may have contributed towards this change in public opinion. un tne other hand, annrenhen- slons that the .trial might create a new nationalism and xenopho bia and turn the average Israeli particularly against all that is German, seem not to be justified. Though there are quite a number of German observers and journal ists now in the country, there are no Indications so far showing that. they were treated less friendly than any other guests.

Budget Committee has de ferred action at least until next1 week on a surplus food distribu tion plan.; County Judge D. L. Penhollow said the state Welfare Commis sion advised the committee that it would cost the county about $1,600 to participate in the state program for distribution of feder ally owned surplus food. The matter will be discussed again at the next budget commit tee hearing May 23, he said. Support Rate Set WASHINGTON (UPI) The Agriculture Department has set the minimum national average support price for the 1961 wheat crop at $1.79 per bushed. This was one cent above the advance support rate announced last July. It also was one cent above the final rate for the 1960 wheat crop. For several years, recreational ilitvsilnnmcnt . of the dunes and seashore area south of Florence bis been a public controversy. It still is, although some of the heat has dissipated, and compro mise legislation has been written ind presented to congress. Thn cnmnromlso is that of Rep Edwin Durno, R-Ore who during his campaign for office expressed considerable discontent and ortti lm nt the nronosal made by the lite Sen. Richard L. Neuberger for the creation of a national nork In the area. Durno has introduced in the U.S. Reuse of Representatives a bill t create Oregon Dunes Na tional Shoreland to be admin istered by tho U.S. Forest Serv ice. This brings to three the pieces of legislation introduced at this session of Congress for the dunes area. , 'Senate Bill 209 would estab lish national parks at the dunes, plus others at Point Reyes, Calif.; Padres Island, Texas; and Cape Cod, Mass. It was introduced by Sen. Gordon Allot, R-Colo. Senate Bill 992 was introduced by Sen. Maurine Neuberger, D Ore., and would establish the Oregon Dunes National Seashore Recreation Area.- ; " Congressman Durno's legisla tion has become House Resolu tion 6328. Among tho three the signifi cant differences are in area and the acquisition of private land. Two of the proposals. Senate measures 209 and 992 have iden tical boundaries except that 992, introduced by Sen. Neuberger. has two optional areas the Sea Lions Caves to the north and Tahkenitch Lake area to the east, which could be added on at a Inter date. Both . the Senato bill provide for acquiring private property either through purchase, cx- chango or condemnation. The Neuberger bill docs not spell this out but includes tho phrase "by such other means as . . . deems to bo in the public inter est," and this has been inter preted. by state officials as in cluding exchange andor con demnation. The Durno proposal does not contemplate using any land other than that which is already fed erally owned. The area would be within tho boundaries of the Si uslaw National Forest. If future private lands are needed, the government would only havo the power to buy and not to con demn. , Aside from the boundaries, a major difference between Scnata 209 and 992 and the Durno bill is in the administration. The Senate legislation would have the Secretary of Interior ad minister tho dunes area much in the order of a national park; Dur no'' bill would Have the Secretary of Agriculture, through the For est Service, do the job. Many critics .of the previous dunes bills hail the Durno pro posal as a happy compromise. The difference, they say, is that national park designation is much more restrictive than a recreation area administered by the Forest Service. A national park, for instance, is completely dedicated to rec reation and preservation of nat ural beauties, but the Forest Service, under the Durno bill, would allow multiple use man agement, giving recreation skd scenic beauty only the highest priority. Senate Bill 209 (Allot) asks appropriation of $33 million for the creation of all four national parks; the Neuberger bill docs not specify a sum; the Durno bill estimates that $6 million will be needed for capital improvements (over a ten year period) and $300,000 per year for operation.
