Gun Mishaps
Cost 2 Lives
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Two persons lost their lives in
gun accidents in Oregon over the
weekend.
Walter Edward Harper. 30. of
Sweet Home, the father of two
young children.' was killed by a
companion when mistaken for a
deer. 1
The accident occurred Saturday
in the McDowell Creek area near
Sweet Home when Harper had
been hunting with Doyle V. Shipp,
also Sweet Home. Sheriff's Deputy
J. C. Comer said Shipp had ad
mitted firing the fatal shot.
Merlyn Osburn Christiansen, 15.
Forest Grove, died in a Hillsboro
hospital Sunday from a wound
suffered while playing with a 22
caliber automatic pistol at his
home.
The bullet severed a vein in the
youth's leg and he apparently bled
to death.
Harper was the Joth fatality cf
the Oregon hunting season. Kight
others have been shot to death,
eight have suffered latal heart
attacks, two have drowned and one
was killed in an automobile acci
dent while on a hunting trip.
At leant in others have suffered
non-fatal gun shot wounds.
same people who tookpart in their
states conferences, and some of
them apparently don't have to be
guided by what their state confer
ences agreed on.
When this conference Finishes up
Thursday, its reports on recom
mendations will be turned over to
the President's committee. That
committee doesn't have to be
bound by the action of this confer
ence.
. This is where the time element
enters. The ! -member committee
which Eisenhower created to ad
vise him doesn't meet to decide on
recommendations until Jan. 16.
But probably before then per
haps in the first 10 days of Janu
ary Eisenhower will send his
State of the Union message to Con
gress, a natural vehicle for any
recommendations he wants to
make on education.
He could hardly make any
specific recommendations unless
he had been informed longTiefore
the committee's Jan. 16 meeting
what its recommeadations were
likely to be.
But if he makes specific recom
mendations before he gets the com
mittee s report, then a question
arises: Why the committee at all
and whv the conferences?
He aould speak in general terms
about education and later, after
getting the committee's recom
mendations, send a special mes
sage to Congress on education
But apparently no matter what
this conference or Eisenhower's
committee recommends on federal
aid to education, that subject will
be up to its neck in politics any
wav.
The Democrats run Congress.
Sen. Lyndon Johnson of Texas
Democratic leader in the Senate
said a week ago his party would
push for federal aid to education
If Eisenhower asks for federal aid
plus other things, he ll be dealing
with Democrats in an election

own. no doubt.
But any proposal on federal aid
will run smack into the Eisenhow
