PORTLAND TuP) A Portland
high school principal said today
that he is ready to enforce the
law on his 1700 students and
threatened expulsion or suspen
sion for those not ready to con
form. Ur. Leon P. Mincar, principal
of Benson Boys Polytechnic High
School, announced before a stu
dent assembly that the duck tail
hair cut, the Elvis Presley side
burns, outlandish attire, erratic
driving, and smoking will no long
er be tolerated.
In a move tailored to fif Port
land's campaign to stamp out
juvenile crime. Dr. Mincar told
the student body that those who
do not agree with his program
face expulsion.
He said "I told them we would
allow no fancy haircuts at the be
ginning of the ne semester." He
commented that "employers nor
mally take one look at a duck-tail
haircut or aa Elvis Presley side
burn and reject the student from
any consideration."
Dr. Minear was given the full
support of the city school admin
istration. He threatened loss of driver's
licenses for students who "squir
rel" their cars and announced a
ban on profanity which he said
showed a weakness of vocabulary
and moral character.
Regarding smoking by high
school students. Dr. Minear said
"if a student is found to be in
possession of tobacco he will face
suspension."
He recalled that for years there
had been a truce between school
authorities and students so long
as there was no smoking at
school. "No more," he said.
"Even in the cases where par
ents have given the kids permis
sionthey haven't the authority to
give them permission to break the
law we will now rule out to
bacco." LOVE SOLVES PROBLEM

Russia, Egypt
Jubilant Over
Eden Quitting
MOSCOW (UP)-Official Russian
news outlets Wednesday attributed
British Prime Minister Anthony
Eden's resignation to the Anglo
French "failure" in Suez and the
Eisenhower Doctrine on the Mid
dle East.
The official Soviet news agency
Tass said "political observers in
London point out Eden's resigna
tion was caused by the failure of
the Anglo-French military venture
against Egypt, as well as the proc
lamation by the United States of
the so-called 'Eisenhower doc
trine' ". . .
CAIRO (UP) Egyptian news
papers jubilantly hailed today the
resignation of Jritish Prime Min
ister Anthony Eden as a victory
for Egyptian President Gamal
Abdcl Nasser and Egypt.
The theme of editorial reaction
was that Eden who invaded
Egypt to topple Nasser had only
toppled himself.
Eden's resignation was the
main topic of editorials in all
morning newspapers. All stressed
Nasser today is stronger than
ever while Eden has ended his
political career.

Dairymen Told
Malheur No. 1
Cattle County
Milk Production Center
Seen Shifting Over
To East Oregon
CORVALLIS (UP)- Don Ander
son, Oregon State College exten
sion dairyman, told the 63rd an
nual meeting of the Oregon Dairy
men's Association yesterday that
it may not be many years before
milk production shifts to the east
ern section of the state.
Anderson said that Malheur
county, with 20.000 head of dairy
cattle, now ranks as the state's
No. 1 dairy county. Tillamook,
long one of the leaders, has 18,000
head of milking stock.
Anderson said that milk pro
ducers may find it to their ad
vantage to transport milk across
the mountains in bulk transports
rather than to haul eastern Ore
gon hay to the western half of
the state.
Oregon dairy herds are now at
their lowest level since 1032, Os
car Hagg, Oregon State College
dairy marketing specialist told the
convention.
He warned that the consumer
milk supply could be endangered
unless conditions in the state im
prove and said producers have a
perfect right to bargain for a fair
price for their product.
Dr. A. 0. Shaw, head of the
Washington State College, dairy
department, told the group that
two big problems ... the need to
increase income by increased pro
duction per cow and a more even
milk flow throughout the year . . .
are the major ones facing North
west dairymen.
George Hosteller, Redmond, as
sociation president, said Ameri
cans use 20 per cent less milk and
milk products than they need for
an adequate diet.
He told the dairymen that the
United States is behind 12 other
nations in per capita milk con
sumption, and added that this
demonstrates the need for a bet
ter selling job by the industry.
Glen Lay, executive secretary
of the Oregon Dairy Products
Commission, said his agency will
spend some $100,000 this year pro
moting sale of dairy products. He
said research has demonstrated
that the Oregon consumer "gels
more for his milk food dollar than
many other areas."
The average length of life in both
the United States and Canada is
70.1 years.

Self- Test for
Diabetes Goes
On the Market
CHICAGO (UP)-A "do-it-your
self" test for diabetes, packaged
for sale in vending machines and
drug stores, has been announced
by a medical research firm.
The test is not designed for
known diabetics but for "the gen
eral public, said Paul Becker,
president of the Clinical Develop
ment Laboratories of Springfield,
III., the firm which developed the
test.
Becker estimated there are
million unknown diabetics in the
United Stales and medical author
ities estimated an additional 3 mil
lion persons will contract the dis
ease during their lifetime.
The test is designed to disclose
the presence of sugar in the urine.
It consists of a piece of tape
treated like litmus paper which is
hermetically sealed and contains
live enzymes.
Doctors advised taking the test
in the morning before eating since
varying body conditions after
meals might affect the tape.
"If the tape turns blue on two
successive tests, see your doctor,
said Becker.
The tests will be labeled "Sugar
Chck" and will sell for 25 cents.

THE CAPITAL JOURNAL'
Will Demos Be Able to Put Over Program?
By PAUL W. HARVEY JR.
Associated Press Writer
The same old arguments over
money, highways, power and
schools wil face the 1957 Legisla
ture when it meets here Monday.
But this time, there will be a dif
ferent group trying to solve the
problems.
For the first time in 20 years.
the Legislature will meet with the
Democrats in control of the gov
ernor's office and the House. And
they have a 15-15 split in the Sen
ate. The complexion of the Senate
raises a question mark over
whether the Democrats will be1
able to pass their program.
Here are the issues:
Taxes It's a cinch that the
Legislature will repeal the 45 per
cent income surtax. Then the
Democrats will try to raise at
least an equal amount of money
by revising income tax rates to
shift more of the burden into up
per brackets. Most Republicans,
favoring a sales tax, won't like
the Democratic plan.

His optimism was based on bo
hind-thc-scene negotiations aimed
at ending the strike called by the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire
men and Enginemen. The walk
out now is in its eighth day.
Another high government offi
cial said he thought the two sides
are "gradually getting a little bit
closer," but warned against be
ing "too optimistic in looking for
a settlement Thursday."
There were no disclosures of
what turn the closed-door nego
tiations were taking in the efforts
to end the strike that has idled
more than 70,000.

Highways The Highway Com
mission wants to issue eight mil

wants authority to make freeways
out of any existing highways.
Power The Democrats will
try to pass memorials asking Con
gress to construct a high dam in
Hells Canyon, and to build John
Day Dam with federal funds. The
proposed Columbia River com
pact, under which Northwest
states would plan their water re
source development, will be sub

fication. Schools There will be a strong
move for a 50 per cent increase
in state aid to school districts,
higher teacher salaries, and finan
cial help for construction in dis
tressed school districts. The state
aid will cost money and, if ap
proved, would necessitate a tax
increase.

Elections The Interim Com'

mending rewriting of the election
laws. These would bring about
more accurate reporting of cam

Buildings The budget recom

of financing this with bonds to be
