There are a number of reasons proposal
for Dunes Park is having rough going
; In a letter to the editor, published
In Ihis newspaper last week, U.S. Sen
ator Maurine B. Neuberger lays the
blame for slow progress of her bill to
establish a new national park on the
Oregon Dunes at the door of Gov. Mark
O. Hatfield. And there some of the
blame must lie. But there are several
other places where a little blame can
attach.
1 The original proposal for a Dunes
park was the brain-child of Sen. Neu
berger's late husband, Richard L.
Neuberger, and the National Park
Service. Dick Neuberger was putting up
a good fight for the park, and was mak
ing some progress. He, a Democrat like
his wife, had obtained support from
the Eisenhower administration for his
proposal.
Then the changes started. Dick
Neuberger died, was replaced on an
Interim basis by Hall S. Lusk, who had
little interest In the proposal, and serv
ed loo short a time to be effective In its
behalf, regardless of his Interest In the
measure. John F. Kennedy was elected,
and a new crew took over high-level
offices In the federal government.
Neuberger's original bill was dead;
a new Congress needed new legislation.
His widow Introduced another version.
Congressman Eddie Durno now repre
sented the district in which the park
was to be located. He wanted no part
Of It even though his chief campaign
Strategist, the late Bill Tugman, was
one of the Park's strongest supporters.
. One would have thought, with the
park being the pet of a Democratic U.S.
Senator, it would have much easier
Bailing under the new administration
than the old, even If a Republican con
gressman In its own district opposed it.
' But that Isn't the way things go In
Washington.
Senator Morse doesn't like the park
proposal. And Senator Morse is a much
more powerful man In Washington than
he ever has been before. Apparently
he's trying to get even with anyone
named Neuberger; Dick put him on a
pretty tough spot a few years ago, and
the Morsian memory is a long one on
some matters.
Rep. Edith Green doesn't like the
Neuberger bill. And she, with the pos
sible but not probable exception of
Morse, is much closer to the Kennedy
administration than any other Oregon
member of Congress.
Rep. Ullman, who follows Morse
and Green wherever they go, doesn't
like it either, and he's been no help.
Secretary of Agriculture Freeman
doesn't like it, because he feels he's got
to s u p p o r t the U.S. Forest Service,
wnicti doesn't like It.
Governor Hatfield Is lareelv un
learned In resource, conservation, and
recreation affairs. Most of this work In
his administration is left up to a fellow
named Dan Allen, whom one of our
states distinguished citizens recently
characterized in a private conversation
as a "Very ordinary bureaucrat." And
Allen has been opposing the park ever
since it was first suggested.
Allen always says he doesn't op
pose the park. He merely says he Is in
favor of It provided someone makes
a few changes. The changes are always
ones which would be unacceptable to
park supporters. The park adherents
are put in the position of the fellow who
Is told the family will approve his
marrying the girl, if he'll send her little
sister through college and take little
sister's husband in as a partner in his
business, as soon as little sister finds
a husband.
The Bulletin has supported the
park since the first. We agree with
Maurine that the governor's position,
as outlined by Dan Allen, has been of
no help to her efforts. But she's had no
help, either from Durno, Morse, Green,
Ullman, or the Kennedy administration.
Laying the whole blame at the
governor s door is not quite right.

Freedom
Francisco Franco says his Spanish
people love freedom. They've got It,
too, he says. Then he adds that the
kind of freedom they love Is orderly
freedom, not the messy kind.
And this seems to be true. Every
Spaniard is perfectly free, in public or
In private, to agree with Franco. But
he must be orderly about it. (Eugene

c
rificism of Anderson not quite justified
Lloyd Anderson, a director of the
Mldstate Electric Cooperative at La
Pine, was recalled from office by fellow
cooperative members at the group's
annual meeting Monday.
Anderson lias been an outspoken
opponent of some of the coop's manage
ment practices in recent months. His
recall must be interpreted as a success
ful attempt to "spank" him by other
directors and the manager of the co
operative, George Larimer.
Quite often community fights In
small communities generate more heat
than In larger ones. This is tine because
the smaller the area and number of
persons Involved, the more likelv every
one is to know the personalities In a
d'smite, the quicker everyone is to take
sides.
This Is certainly true in this case.
Anderson has been the center of a
storm in LaPine for several months.
Various efforts have been made by his
opponents to get even with him.
Some of the tactics which have
been used were unfair, centering as
they did on attempts to harm his re
lations with his employer, the U.S.
Forest Service. Others, such as the at
tack upon him by retiring coop Presi
dent Merritt Y. Parks, were in poor
taste.
Anderson Is a man of strong moral
and ethical senses. It was his opinion
some of the practices of the coop wpj-c
open to question. He questioned them,
openly. He does not deserve personal
attacks for his efforts.

WASHINGTON - Inside fact
about the current glamor trip of
Jacqueline Kennedy is that it eot
started by accident and was al
most killed by her husband. He
preferred that she stay at home.
wnat Happened was that Prime
Minister Nehru of India, sitting be
side Mrs. Kennedy at a White
House dinner last November, re
marked: "You must come to In
dia.
She replied: "I'd love to."
Mrs. K thought no more about
it, but Nehru did. He went home.
began conferring with the U.S.
Ambassador, Ken G a I b r a i t h.
shortly sent a long and detailed
itinerary for the First Lady. It
took the President by surprise and
he got on the telephone to Gail
bralth to discourage the trip.
Gaibraith, however, is not a
man easily discouraged. He was
not discouraged when he first
plugged for Kennedy for presi
dent, a year before the conven
tion and when most observers
didn't think JFK had a chance.
And not being one who surrend
ers easily, Gaibraith hopped on a
plane and came to Washington to
sell Kennedy on the Indian trip
ior jacKie. He succeeded.
Then President Ayub of Pakis
tan got into the act and invited
Jackie to come to his country.
The implication was that if she
went to India without visiting its
Diuer rival, Pakistan, that candle
lit dinner on the lawn at Mount
Vernon would count for nothing.
The Indian attack on Goa also
complicated things and delayed
the trip. Finally, the President
looked over Jackie's itinerary and
decided it was too arduous. He
trumped up the idea that she had
sinus trouble, which she didn't
have, and cut out several side
trips.
All reports are, however, that
Jackie is having a wonderful lime
and winning a lot of friends for
the USA, in an area where we
need friends and where Khrush
chev and Bulganin once spent two
eeke on a verv successful barn
storming trip. Maybe Mrs. Ken-
ledy should travel more.
Tel-Aviv to Albany??
The Republicans have quietly
started grooming an eventual
candidate for governor of N e w
York in a manner that confirms
the suspicion of Sen. Bill Ful
bright of Arkansas.
Two years ago when Ogdcn Reid
of the famous New York Herald
Tribune family was up for con
firmation as ambassador to Is
rael, Senator Fulbright opposed
him on the grounds that he was
using the Israeli ambassadorship
as a stepping stone to Albany.
The diplomatic post in Israel
would help him win the big Jew
ish vote in running for governor
of New York, Fulbright suspected.
Reid, however, denied this. He
said he had no political ambitions
and no foreseeable plans to run
for governor of New York or may
or of New York or, ho implied,
any other New York political post.
But up In Westchester county
the other day, Edwin Michaclian,
Republican boss of the county,
quietly served notice on GOP Con
gressman Edwin B. Doolcy that
he should "move over" and let
Ogdcn Reid run instead. He said
Doolcy could become chairman of
the New York State Fitness Pro
gram under Rockefeller at $18,000
year.
Doolcy Is an unspectacular, con
scientious Republican who was an
all-America footballer at Dart
mouth, wrote sports for the old
New York Sun. even wrote a foot
ball novel, "Under the Goal
Posts." He has served faithfully
Congress for six years, but
now the party bosses say ho
should move over in favor of
young Reid. So far Doolcy has de
clined. It looks as if Senator Fulbright
was right after all.
Ii Hltlorism Coming Back?
For the first lime since the war,
a meeting is being held on Ameri
can soil where tho revision of
German borders along Hitler lines
is due for discussion. Tho meet
ing being held In Chicago this
week has already raised alarms
in Poland and Czechoslovakia
partly because one of the leading
West German revisionists.
Bundestag member Weufel
Jaksch, will be one of the speak
ers. Jaksrh is one of the most active
German leaders in demanding
that tho Sudetenland be taken
away from Czechoslovakia and
given to Germany, also that upper
Silesia be taken from Poland and
returned to Germany.
It was the seizure of the Sude
tenland by Hitler in 1038 that
raised the first signal tli.it World
War II was imminent, and it was
the seizure of Poland by Hitler
that precipitated World War II.
The Chicago meeting is held un
der the auspices of the Founda
tion of Foreign Affairs and the
Herder Institute of Marburg. West
Germany, for the purpose of dis
cussing Fast European affairs.
This is what makes East Euro
peans jittery about U.S. support
for West Germany and makes
uiem adamant against any nu-
clear arms in West German
hands.
B-70 Lobbying
Both Secretary of Defense Rob
ert McNamara and Congressman
carl Vinson of Georgia have been
wooing supporters behind the
scenes in their battle as to wheth-
cr Congress should or should not
vote money for the B-70 which the
Kennedy administration says it
doesn't need.
McNamara, age 45, went around
to see crusty Congressman Gar
ence Cannon of Missouri, chair
man of the Appropriations Com
mittee, to try to get him to block
the money. The 83-year-old Can
non was inclined to stick with his
79-year-old colleague from Geor
gia.
Vinson meanwhile went around
to see southern friends on his own
Armed Services Committee, and
ai a iwo-nour closed-door argu
ment over the B-70 it appeared
that he had won some support
irom td Hcbert of Louisiana and
Mendel Rivers of South Carolina
So many Democrats cross
examined McNamara, however,
that GOP Congressman Leon
Gavin of Pennsylvania demanded
to know if Vinson planned to con
fine the questioning to Democrats
and "cut off Republicans." He
asked McNamara: "Do you real
ly have any plans to make use
of this additional money?"
"Quite frankly, we do not antici
pate any need for the additional
amount," said McNamara.
'In that case, the House Ap
propriations Committee might not
appropriate the money, even if we
authorized it." suggested Gavin.
It a happened before. What
makes you think they won't do it
to us again, Mr. Chairman?"
I m not overlooking that pos
sibility," replied the wily Vinson
who did not let on that Appro
priations Chairman Cannon was
on his side. "However, that's
their responsibility. We're doing
our job here. Regardless of what
the secretary says, I'm still con
vinced that missiles aren't the
whole answer to our future de
fense. The manned bomber will
continue to play a vital role.

Action against
police brutality
being sought
WASHINGTON (UPI) - Justice
Department officials said today
their latest civil rights proposal
would make it easier to convict
policemen guilty of brutality and
third-degree methods of interro
gation.
Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kennedy
asked Congress Tuesday to close
loopholes in the present federal
ban on beatings imposed on pris
oners in the guise of law enforce
ment. In a message sent to congres
sional leaders. Kennedy also ap
pealed for stiffer fines and jail
sentences for anyone convicted of
such offenses.
Gat Threa Convictions
Burke Marshall, assistant attor
ney general in charge of the civil
rights division, said only three
convictions for police brutality
have been obtained during 12
prosecutions in the two years
ending last June 30. Four cases
arc still pending in the courts.
Yet the department received
more than l.OOO complaints alleg
ing police mistreatment or co
erced confessions during this pe
riod, Marshall said. Approval of
the new proposal would "ease the
burden of proof" in such cases,
he said.
Kennedy told Congress that the
present federal law is too vague
and the penalties are too inade
quate for cases in which victims
of brutality receive severe injur
ies or die.
Under Supreme Court rulings,
he added, police accused of beat
ings or forcing confessions often
are successful in pleading that
they did not realize a prisoner's
constitutional guarantees were
being violated.
The present maximum penal
ties a $1,000 fine and one year
in prison would be increased
to a 55.000 fine and a life sen
tence if the bill is approved.
The U. S. Civil Rights Commis
sion recommended such legisla
tion In its 1961 report on the ad
ministration of Justice. Although
most law enforcement officers do
their job properly, the commis
sion said, police brutality is still
a serious problem in many parts
of the country and Negroes suffer
more than any other group.
Rangeland
improvement
plan fold
PORTLAND (UPI) A seven-
year program to improve South
east Oregon rangelands was an
nounced here Tuesday by Karl S.
Landstrom, national director of
the Bureau of Land Management.
Landstrom announced plans to
ipend 516.5 million on the 6'i
million acre Vale Project in Mal
heur County. The project also in
cludes small portions of Harney
and Grant Counties.
Landstrom said management
practices will be intensilied on
federal, state and private lands
within the project. The govern
ment will offer ranchers unused
land for areas under treatment to
prevent reduction in the number
of livestock being grazed.
Russell M. Getty, BLM state di
rector, said 73 per cent of the
four million acres of BLM land
in the Vale district supports only
a fraction of the vegetative cover
that once existed, and 32 per cent
of the land is deteriorating under
present use.
Getty said the land can be re
habilitated by reseeding. brush
eradication, erosion control, de
velopment of water supplies and
intensive management of live
stock.
The Vale Project will be used
as a pilot program to demonstrate
what can be done in other parts
of Eastern Oregon, Idaho, Ne
vada, and parts of Utah and Cali
fornia, Landstrom said.
Ship strike
in 6th day
SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) - The
West Coast maritime strike
moved into its sixth day today
with no indication of a settlement,
although both sides in the dispute
have agreed to concessions on
some strike issues.
Three striking Maritime unions
sailors, firemen and cooks and
stewards agreed Tuesday to per
mit immediate sailing of two ves
sels with military cargo, mclud-
ing 1.500 tons of nuclear test
material for Christmas Island.
The agreement between the
unions and the Pacific Maritime
Association, representing the em
ployers, also will allow passenger
ships at Honolulu to return with
their passengers to West Coast
ports.
However, there were no negotia
tions scheduled between the PMA
and the striking unions which
would bring an end to the walk
out. When negotiations broke
down, the unions announced that
the parties were still $6 million
apart on a new three-year con
tract. Tho strike thus far has idled
about 30 vessels, including four
passenger liners in San Fran
cisco. DEATH REPORTED
NEWPORT, Ore. (ITP-Jesse
Himmelsbach, 67, Portland, col
lapsed and died while inspecting
property south of here Tuesday.
He was the father of Baker

apparently was due to a heart
attack.

Hatfield seeks
cooperation
on dunes plan
SALEM (UPI) Gov. Mark
Hatfield said Tuesday Sen. Mau
rine Neuberger, D-Ore., "needs
to clarify her stand on what re
mains to be compromised" in her
legislation to create a national
recreation area in the Oregon
Dunes.
Hatfield said Mrs. Neuberger
still hasn't agreed to changes
which would give tho state first
say over fish and game resour
ces, and oil and mineral rights
wunin me proposed park.
Hatfield has said he favors
dunes park development if the
state has such guarantees.
The late Sen. Richard L. Neu
berger, D-Ore., was cooperating
with the state on such matters,
Hatfield said, but state officials
are not getting "this kind of co
operation from the second Sen.
Neuberger."
Hatfield was asked at his news
conference why his "Decade of
Development" report on natural
resources doesn't mention t h e
dunes. He explained that no spe
cific developments are mentioned
by name in the report.
Hatfield noted, however, that
the report urges the federal gov
ernment to spend more money on
recreational development in Ore
gon, and this would include the
dunes.
Approval given
airport money
SEASIDE (UPI)-A reouest for
$8,000 to assist in runway recon
struct ion at the Lakeview Airport
was approved Tuesday at a meet
ing of the State Board of Aero
nautics here.
Tho city of Lakeview and Lake
County had asked for the monev.
which will be added to federal
funds.
The board also reviewed its re
quests for federal funds to assist
in building two new airports at
Brookings and Cottage Grove and
improving fields at Seaside and
Hermiston.

Plane quest
is cut back
CLARK AFB, Philippines (UPI)
A few weary flight crews today
kept up the almost hopeless task
of searching for a Flying Tiger
airliner that vanished last week
with 107 persons aboard.
Planes and crews have been fly
ing as long as 12 hours daily and
only six planes from Clark Field
took to the air this morning. The
Air Force said it was forced to
cut back on the search because
of crew fatigue and the need for
aircraft maintenance.
Five days of intensive search
had extended crews and their
planes to the limits of safety as
they scoured 240,000 square milei
of some of the loneliest expanses
of ocean in the world.
