ichool budget approval given in
253 vote
Margin here
biggest in
several years
By Bill Yates
Bulletin Stiff Writer
Voters in Deschutes School Dis
trict No. 1 approved Monday by
a margin of about two-and-one-half
to one an operating budget
for 1963-63 which will require a
levy of $316,077.12 in excess of the
six per cent limitation.
The measure was approved by
a vote of 626 to 253.
The total budget is $2,008,547.14.
It has been estimated that the
levy which will be required of lo
cal taxpayers will be an increase
of less than one mill over the cur
rent levy.
Voters Monday also re-elected
two board members, Bert Hagen,
zone 6, and Ralph Boese, zone 2,
to five-year terms.
In addition, two persons were
elected to the district's two advi
sory school committees. Named
to the Bend committee was Rich
ard Wayman. Winifred Mary
Ginsbach was elected to the La
Pine committee.
No Opposition
None of the board and commit
tee candidates had opposition.
In the budget vote, the measure
was passed by substantial mar
gins at each of the five polling
places.
Following is a poll-by-poll run
down on the final count:
Yes No

Junior High 127 42

The margin was the largest
here in several years. The size of
the vote was considerably larger
than in last year's election, in
which the budget was approved
by a vote of 383 to 310.
In 1960, before reorganization,

Plans presented
for 275 to 300
unit motel here
By Glenn Cushman
Bulletin Staff Writer
A proposal which would result
in construction of a 275 to 300
unit motor hotol in Bend was un
veiled at a meeting of commun
ity leaders here Monday night
Allen Grant, representing De
velopers, Inc., of Eugene, outlined
the proposal at a meeting at the
Elks Club attended by some 30
people.
The motor hotel would be locat
ed on the 12 acre site of what
was Bruin Field on Highway 97
south, purchased nearly two years
ago by the Eugene company. This
represents a new approach to the
property since Developers, Inc.,
had originally planned to con
struct a shopping center on the
12 acre tract.
Grant's plan would include an
ice skating rink, a bowling alley,
a swimming pool and possibly
some shops located in the motor
hotel area. The motor hotel
would cater to state and national
conventions and tourist business,
he said.
Support Sought
Grant told the group that he
was here mostly to apprise lo-

ation and is locating it at Gardi

doubt International Paper was
considering four sites in the
Northwest three in Oregon and
one in Washington.
Company officials said at a
news conference here that con
struction at Gardiner should begin
in about six weeks. Gardiner is
near Reedsport in Douglas County
on the Oregon coast
Hatfield said the operation will
employ 650 workers during the
construction, peaking out to 1,000.
Whon the construction is com
pleted in 1964, the average num
ber of new jobs created will be
830.
Hatfield called it a "most signif
icant advancement in our state's
economic picture. It is particular
ly important as a geographical
diversification to bring a tremen
dous economic Impact to south
western Oregon."
The 1961 legislature passed spe
cial legislation to expedite the
proposal.
J. E. McCaffrey of Mobile, Ala.,
a vice president of International
Paper, called Oregon "truly a
tree country" and said this is an
"important day in the history of
International Paper Co."
The pulp and paper mill will be
located on a 125-acre site adjacent
to International's existing Gardi
ner sawmill, which will be mod
ernized. The rebuilt sawmill will

Main product in the pulp and

containers, plus unbleached paper
for grocery bags and sacks. The
operation will have a capacity of
100.000 tons annually.
'Character assassination' charged
Morse lashes
WASHINGTON (UPII - Sen.
Wayne Morse, D-Ore., lashed out
in the Senate Monday at a book
about him which he declared was
"character assassination"
Morse told the Senate that the
book by A. Robert Smith, a cor
respondent for several Oregon
newspapers, was "full of un
truths, half-truths, out-of-context
distortions and oft - repeated Re
publican misrepresentations."

plans. "We don't want money
now. We want community support
for this project," he said.
He said he would have repre
sentatives of at least two major
hotel chains in Bend to survey the
area within the next month. If
either decides to take on man
agement of the motor-hotel cen
ter, he said, financing will then
be sought.
He said financing would come
entirely from outside lending in
stitutions or could come from both
local and outside sources, depend
ing upon the needs.
Action by Chamber
Grant's proposal is the direct
result of action of a Chamber of
Commerce committee headed by
Gordon Randall and Doug Ward.
The committee has been re
searching the possibilities of a
major motor - hotel facility to
host conventions in Bend.
Randall was master - of cere
monies for the meeting and intro
duced Grant.
Randall told the group that such
a facility would set Bend "10
years ahead in the tourist bust'
ness," and would bring in "thou
sands of new faces.
The motor - hotel would stand
about five stories high and would
face the Cascade mountains,
Grant said. The ice rink and
swimming pool would be in year
around use.
Benefits Noted
Jack Fuls, owner of the Thun-
derbird Motel, said he would be
glad to see such a facility located
m Bend and that sooner or later,
someone is going to build one. He
said it could work to benefit otlv
er motel owners by bringing in
thousands of new visitors.
Grant said he would keep local
leaders informed of progress in
securing a nationally - recognized
hotel operator, which he said, is
the key to such operations.

show "responsible" restraint
The chief executive was cheered
by an estimated 10,000 delegates
and guests when he entered tha
huge convention hall, which was
decorated with a banner saying:
UAW-all the way with JFK.
Kennedy declared that unions
must consider the public interest
in shaping wage demands to avoid
inflationary settlements.
"What good is it to get an In
crease in wages If It is taken
away by an increase in prices?"
he asked in a renewed plea for
limiting wage-price advances to
increases in productivity.
The President hailed the UAW
for what he termed Its historic
policy of seeking pay boosts out
of increased output per man-hour.

dent, who has called for wage
gains greater than productivity in

told the convention that the union
would back Kennedy's efforts to
keep prices stable.
President Praises Reuther
Praising Reuther as a distin
guished labor leader, the Presi
dent added: "He and I do not al
ways agree. He is happy to say
it and I am not reluctant to say
it. But he recognizes that I must
meet my responsibilities as he
meets his."
The UAW delegates, who waved
signs and placards to demonstrate
their support for Kennedy, cheered
loudest when the President pre
dicted passage this year of his
proposal to provide medical care
for the aged under social security.
They were silent, however, when
the President told them to nego

Kennedy responded to a two-

'After speaking to the Chamber

last week, I wondered how I got

Reects Business Criticism
On his main themo of tile need

rejected criticism expressed by
business leaders of his interven
