Lebanon The city council
this week passed, with an em
ergency clause, a curfew ordin
ance which makes it unlawful
for minors under 18 years of age
to loiter or be upon the streets
of Lebanon without proper com
pany after 10 o'clock. The ordin
ance, which is patterned after
that in effect in Salem, holds the
parent responsible for any of
fense committed, and subject to
a fine of $10 to $100, or jail sen
i tence of 5 to 30 days, or both.
! This was the first-council
i meeting conducted by Lebanon's
j new mayor, Dr. Peter T. Tweed,
' who, along with G. N. Gillcn
' water, councilman from ward 3,
both of whom were named to
office at the general election,
i was sworn into office to fill cx
. Isting vacancies, Under the or
; dinance the police are empow-
cred to take violators to the city
hall and hold them until their
1 parents or guardian comes for
! them, and if they refuse, they
! will be subject to arrest under a
separate clause of the law.
A second ordinance, prohibit
ing the sale of newspapers, ma
gazines or literature by boys un
der 10 or girls under 18 years of
- age, aimed at curbing the actions
.' of Jehovah's Witnesses, was con
' sidered but turned over to the
' ordinance committee for further
study, since the law did not seem
to cover the intended purpose.

instructed further to study pres

ommendations for necessary
changes or new ordinances to
; meet the city's needs.

Howard Talks
Before Forum
At Silverton
Silverton - "College training
is an essential commodity like
rubber, chromium or oil," said
Dr. C. A. Howard in his talk be
fore more than fifty geusts at
the Chamber of Commerce ban
quet at Toney's last night in tell
ing of the Importance of edu
cation in war, as a representative
from the Oregon state system of
higher education.
Dr. Howard substituted for
Willard Marks who was ill and
could not make the trip here.
J. H. McCullough, president of
the forum, introduced the speak
er and the members of the gen
eral committee on plans, Dr. C.
W. Keene, Mrs. Glenn Briedwell
and Leonard F. Hudson, were of
ficial hosts. Dr. R. E. Kleinsorge
of Silverton, a member of the
state board of higher education,
and latest appointee, was honor
guest. '
Dr. Howard gave facts and fi
gures as proof of an unsupplied
need in the armed forces for
more college trained men, citing
the truth that only an ayerage of
eight per cent of the general pu
blic ever attend college, yet 75
per cent of the initial officer
staff comes from this source.
Two outstanding men, Admiral
Nimitz, who urged more special
ly trained men in mathematics
and physics, and General Mar
shall, who said "Mobilization
could not have taken place with
out officers trained by ROTC in
colleges and universities," were
quoted,
Oregon's contribution, largely
because of the excellent unified
influence of the plans of the state
board, has been from the AERC
and other reserves for the 1942
43 enlistments 4000 men out of
the 11,000 graduates of the past
ten years; 1300 skilled techni
cians, and 2645 engineers, scien
tists and managers in hundreds
of doctors, nurses, pre-medics,
production managers, pharma
cists, chemists and physicists
with the number of engineers
reaching 1200 and many more in
training.
The greatest home need is that
of teachers for the children. who
suffer more than the adult rea
lizes by. the upset conditions,
the speaker claimed, and ade
quate and sufficient teachers is
the drastic need during .war
times. These teachers must be
the product of the higher, edu
cational institutions of the state.
Dr. Howard defended the "en
listed reserves" who are attend
ing college for special work in
the armed forces and "not to
escape war activities as had
been a misjudgment against
them," he said.
President McCullough an
nounced ' that this would prob
ably be the only Chamber of
Commerce program during the
winter months in respect to oth
er activities of more vital nature.
