Need for New YWCA Pool
Told by Local Workers
The prnnnsed
pool for the YWCA is the answer
to "family night" swimmers who
like to do more than get wet.
Gus Moore, , general secretary
of the YMCA states the scheduled
family nights at the YM pool are
always crowded, and the facilities
are used to capacity at all times.
'There is a definite need for
another indoor pool in the Salem
area, Mr. Mnore says.
The YMCA swimming facilities
are the only indoor accommoda
tions for the entire Salem metro
politan area of 90,000, including
14,000 school children.
The total use of the YMCA pool
In 1956 was 79,191 times, and dur
ing the month of March, 1957, it
was used 8,277 times.
Mr. Moore, who has taught
many men, women and children to
swim, himself, said that the
YMCA had never been able to
give girls and women the. time
they deserve. "I'll be very happy
to see the YWCA get a pool," he
said. "I'm sure the YW pool will
stimulate a greater interest in
swimming in the community and
increase attendance in both oools."
The new YWCA pool will be
available not only fx family
swimming but to organized groups
as well, such as Girl Scouts, Camp
Fire Girls, Willamette University.
personnel, and state office work
ers. The pool will also serve resi-
dents in surrounding towns, where
mere are no indoor swimming facilities.

May Have to Force
Secrecy Halt
By NEIL MacNEIL
United Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON (UP)-A House
Information subcommittee asked
the nation's leading editors and
publishers today for help in its
fight against Defense Secretary
Charles E. Wilson's information
orders.
The action was the latest round
in the subcommittee's long quar
rel with Wilson over his depart
ment's practices on release of in
formation not involving national
security.
May Pass Legislation
Subcommittee Chairman John
E. Moss (D-Calif. said Congress
may have to pass legislation spe
cifically designed to curb Defense
Department secrecy unless the de
partment itself reverses what
Moss called its current trend
toward greater secrecy.
He asked a picked list of edi
tors and publishers for their ad
vice and suggestions on what such
legislation should contain.
Wilson accused the subcommit
tee Wednesday of undermining
the constitutional separation -of
powers" between Congress and
the executive branch of govern
ment. What drew Wilson's fire was an
announcement by Moss and three
other Democrats that they were
sponsoring legislation to blast
hole in the government's "paper
curtain of secrecy." Moss cited
Wilson as one official who has
abused a "loophole" in existing
laws to further restrict military
information to Congress.
Would Plug Loophole
Moss said the proposed bill
would plug this loophole as used
by the Defense Department and
other government agencies.
Today, in his appeal for help
from the editors and publishers,
Moss suggested that specific legis
lation aimed at the Defense De
partment may be necessary. He
sent the news executives copies of
Wilson's most recent directives on
how department officials should
deal with releasing information to
Congress and the press,
In an accompanying note, Moss
told the editors and publishers
Wilson s directives raised a num
ber of danger signals." He said
they could have a "far - reaching
effect on the people s right to in
formation about the Defense Department.

baseball manager, is of French ex
