Labor, management clashes
punctuate hearing at Salem
By Douglas Gripp
UPI Staff Writer
SALEM ( UPI ) Labor and man
agement made a battlefield out
of a Senate committee hearing
Tuesday night on the so-called
3 way workmen's compensation
bill, SB334. About ZOO persons
attended.
The public meeting was pepper
ed Willi conflicting testimony, a
loud exchange between a labor
official and the chairman, and
even some cursing.
Four witnesses testified before
the Senate State and Federal Af
fairs Committee.
Alrorneys Gerald Mcindl of
Portland and Keith Skellon, Eu
gene, spoke for the bill. Opposing
it were James T. Marr of Portr
land, executive secretary of the
Oregon AFL-CIO, and Rep. Ed
ward J. Whelan, D-Portland. a
Multnomah County labor official.
Thrtt Choices Offered
.The bill would give employers
three ways to insure their em
ployes against accidents through
tho Stale Industrial Accident
Commission, a private carrier, or
self-Insurance.
Mcindl, counsel for Associated
Oregon industries, said the com
mission now has a monopoly on
workmen's compensation and It is
an "expensive, Inefficient and out
moded system of compensating
Injured workers."
He dismissed labor's claim that
benefits to workers would be less
under the 3-way system, saying
Uiey would be "exactly the
same."
He said Oregon's Industrial fa
tality rate Is one of the worst
in the nation and this is a product
of having tho program entirely
administered by the stato.
This, Marr Inter declared, is a
"damnable lie." Ho said Oregon
has one of the best fatality ratios
in tli nation.
Skellon, counsel for group
Gunnar backs
lobbyist bill
SALEM (UPI) Former Ore
gon Republican Chaii-irian Peter
Gunnar, now a lobbyist, today
testified In favor of a bill to re
quire lobbyists at the legislature
to register and report their ex
penses The House State and Federal
Affairs Committee had a hearing
on HB1413 Introduced by Rep. Ed
ward N. Fadeley, D-Eug6,;6,
sponsor of the measure.
Fadeley spoke for the bill as
did Don Ball of Eugene, a politi
cal science graduate student at
the University of Oregon.
Chairman Norman Howard, D
Portland, said opponents would be
allowed to testify at a later
date.
Aims Given
Gunnar, who resigned two
weeks ago as GOP chairman and
becamo an Insurance lobbyist,
said (he hill would protect both
tho legislator and (lie lobbyist
from the "general misunderstand
ings and suspicion currently ex
isting and will benefit the public
by preventing Oregon from fall
ing Into the abuse of tho legis
lative process which has plagued
other states."
Gunnar offered amendments re
quiring the reporting to and for
whom expenses wore incurred.
Fadeley said It Is "not an antl
lobhylst bill." but on In the
public interest.
Lobbyists at Salem now flgn
an informal register on a volun
tary basis but under Fadeley's
bill it would ba an official legis
lativ register with all required
to sign or sudor pendtie.

called the Committee for Compet
itive Workmen's Compensation,
said "more and more" state in
dustrial accident cases are being
tried in courts. The result is
more judges and juries and more
costs for the taxpayers.
Oregon Benefits Cited
Marr said that in 1958 nation
ally only 62 cents on every dol
lar spent for workmen's compen
sation insurance was returned to
the worker in benefits. But in
Oregon with the state running it
93 cents on every dollar went
back in the form of benefits.
Is it any wonder that workers
are concerned about this bill?"
Marr asked.
Marr and Committee Chairman
Walter J. Pearson, D Portland,
clashed over whether private in
surance companies now are al
lowed to write workmen's com
pensation in Oregon. Pearson said
no and Marr said yes.
At one point Marr exploded,

Flushing with anger, Pearson
declared that he wasn't, and or

until 3 p.m. today. The final hear
ing will be at 1 p.m. Thursday.

FORT ROCK - Chemical spray,
ing of sage brush to release grass
forage was of major significance
on the agenda of the EnnucJ meet
ing of the Fort Rock Grazing As
sociation here Monday.
Discussing results of previous
spray jobs on public land in this
district. Lew Harris of Lakeview,
district range manager. Bureau of

obtained. On the Floyd Branch al
lotment grazing capacity has been
doubled, he said.
Plans for additional" spraying
are being prepared, according to
Don Getty of the Lakeview BLM

ability of appropriations. Private
land owners are welcome to get
in on BLM aerial spray work at
cost, Getty said, adding that it is
usually substantially less - than
small individual contracts.
The grazing association is com
prised of users of government
range lands in the Fort Rock dis
trict. All officers were reelected.
They are: Maurice Ward, presi
dent; Jack Kittredge, vice presi
dent; Mrs. R. A. Long, secretary

General Electric
facing charges
NEW YORK (UPI) The Na
tional Labor Relations Board has
lodged unfair practices charges
against General Electric Co. in
connection with contract negotia
tions that led to last fall's cross
country strike of electrical work
ers. NLRB Regional Director Ivan
C. McLeod disclosed he fUed the
complaint Tuesday following pre
liminary investigation of charges
filed by the International Union of
Electrical Workers (IUE).
McLeod said GE is accused of
railing to bargain in good faith dur
ing the negotiations that preceded
and accompanied the IUE strike.
He said technical violations of the
National Labor Relations Act were
involved.
There was no charge in the com
plaint that the violations specific
ally caused the strike, he said.
Details of the complaint were
not available today because fed
eral offices were closed for Wash
ington's Birthday.
The strike was called in a dis
pute over wages, fringe benefits
and the union shop. IUE lists
70.000 members in more than 50
of GE's 166 plants.

Salem, ill with cancer, who never,

White last winter was found to

The latter treatment, which af
