Meet with attornsy
Tumalo area residents seeking
action against Holgate Farm
By Ha S. Grant
Bullstln Staff Writer
Some 40 persons, mostly resi
dents oE the Tumalo community,
met Wednesday evening ft a lo
cal law office to express dissatis
faction with the operation of Hol
gate Boys' Farm. They were
there, several in the group said,
to see what can be done about
remedying what they feel is a bad
situation.
The farm, a short distance out
of Tumalo on Cline Falls Road,
houses youths from MacLaren
School for Boys, in a probationary
period before being returned to
their former homes or put on their
own resources. It is operated by
Mr. and Mrs. Norman Holgate.
Alva C. Goodrich, who had been
asked to preside at the meeting,
said that he was doing so as a pri
vate citizen and an attorney. "If
I feel you people are right," he
said, "I will do what I can to sup
port you. If I feel you are wrong,
I will tell you so." He will not
charge a fee for his services, he
said.
After about two hours of dis
cussion, the group agreed to meet
again next Wednesday night.
Goodrich said that he would ask
supervisory personnel from Mac
Laren to be present. He said he
would ask for use of the circuit
courtroom in the courthouse for
the meeting. He asked those pres
ent last night to write letters to
him, stating their objections spec
ifically. James L. Brown, Redmond
school superintendent, summed up
the objections as these: inade
quate facilities at the farm; lack
f nmfossional supervision and an
adequate work program, and.
over - concentration of MacLaren j
bovs in a small area, causing
problems for school administra
tors and neighbors.
A number of those present ex-
pressed their belief that the boys
"need a second chance," but said
they felt there are too many in
Tumalo for the community to ab
sorb. (One man said that he
counted 12 boys at the farm a day
or two ago, and has heard that
the number is to be increased to
about 20 in the near future.)
Concern was expijssed about
the additional influx, and Good
rich was asked to intercede with
MacLaren officials to send no
more boys there. It was also said
that Mr. and Mrs. Loren Dear
dorff, also Tumalo residents, plan
Search pressed
for Evers killer
JACKSON, Miss. (UPD-Police
pressed one of the most intensive
investigations in Mississippi his
tory today for the killer of Ne
gro civil rights leader Medgar
Evers. A price of more than $22,
ooo was placed on the head of
the sniper.
Detectives worked around the
clock on several leads including
a "good" fingerprint from the ap
parent murder weapon.
Mourning Negroes who had
been led by Evers in months ot
integration demonstrations were
caUed on Wednesday night to
start a month of black armband
mourning, fasting and abolition of
all downtown shopping.
Following the slaying, which
President Kennedy called an act
of barbarity." 160 Negroes were
arrested during spontaneous
marches in this tense capital city.
There were sporadic incidents of
violence, including the stoning of
a police car Wednesday night in
the Neero section. The vehicle
was damaged but there were no
injuries or arrests.
Kennedy offers
rights program
WASHINGTON (UPI) Presi
dent Kennedy laid his urgent new
civil rights program before con
gressional leaders of both parties
today but apparently won no im
mediate consensus on his pro
posals. One participant said the Presi
dent's program, which is not ex
pected to go to Congress before
next week, will put weight behind
school desegregation, equal public
accommodations and easier vot
ing requirements but not a fair
employment practices proposal.
"FEPC is definitely out," this
member told a reporter.
Key Republicans, whose sup
port is vital if Congress is to ap
prove the President's still-tentative
new legislative proposals,
planned a news conference later
today to discuss tneir position.
The White House meeting lasted
an hour and 40 minutes and was
another in a series of sessions
the President has been holding
1 both with legislative leaders and
top officials in business and otner
fields.
A Democratic source said no
commitments were sought by the
President and no consensus was
reached.
Trial date set
in land case
PORTLAND (UPI) Trial of
spvpTi men chareed with mail
fraud in connection with the Lake
Valley subdivision in Eastern Ore
gon today was set for Oct. 15 in
U.S. District Court.
All seven men entered pleas of
innocent before Judge Gus J. Sol
omon today. The judge granted
the defendants 20 days in which
to file motions in the case.
The defendants, all out-of-state
residents, are Abraham Koolish,
David F. Koolish. John M. Phil

Dale Walker, George Edward
Isaacs, and Maurice Arthur Hall.

to establish a similar operation,
to house some 30 boys.
Mrs. Deardorff told The Bulle
tin in a telephone conversation to
day that they have two MacLaren
boys now, on an experimental ba
sis, and possibly could house as
many as five or six. They have
no plans at present for a building
program, she said. Asked if they
could accommodate 30 boys, she
said that would be out of the
question.
Several persons at the meeting
said that they fear for the safety
of their daughters. One man said
his daughter had received an ob
scene letter from one of the boys.
Others complained of rough talk
at the community swimming hole,
and said they have restrained
their children from going there.
Several persons said that their
cars had been stolen, and tnat
some of these incidents had not
been reported to law officers.
Brown was critical of a series of
articles about Holgate which ran
in The Bulletin, charging that the
publicity was designed as a cover-up.
The reporter who wrote the se
ries said that the articles were
written on the basis of one visit
to Holgate, and conversation with
several Tumalo area residents,
police officers, the MacLaren
field representative and persons
in Bend known to have had con
tact with the Holgate operation.

DUNES CITY, Ore. (UPI) -
Residents of this 1,800 acre tract
around Woahink Lake near Flor

The area has 274 eligible voters.
Next step will be certification
of the vote by Lane County com

city councilmen.
Supporters of incorporation con
tended they were mainly interest

Dahl Pine
plant burns
Wednesday
Special to Tha Bulletin
REDMOND Fire about 8:30
Wednesday evening destroyed the
Dahl Pine plant on the Warm
Springs Indian Reservation, with
the loss estimated at $250,000. In
surance was carried.
The plant location is about 35
miles north of Madras. Timber
purchased from the Mt. Hood Na
tional Forest was being milled.
Company officials said recon
struction will start at once. Tha
mill was owned by Phil Dahl, Sam
Johnson and Harold Barclay, of
Redmond and Sisters. This was
the first major fire suffered by
the mil! since it was built in 1949.
The fire apparently broke out in
the area of the boiler room, and
possibly was electrically caused.
Barclay was at the mill site this
morning, and was to be joined at
noon by an insurance adjuster.
A high wind was whipping the
area when the fire broke out. It
spread rapidly. One fire truck
from the Warm Springs Agency
and two manned by forest crews
responded.
Escaping the fire were the burn
er, the power house and part of
the green chain.
Medicare urged

Boss of U.S.
moon project
quitting job
WASHINGTON (UPI) The
boss of America's $20 billion Apol
lo project to land two men on the
moon before 1970 is quitting his
job.
He told United Press Interna
tional he believed the Apollo pro
gram was firmly enough estab
lished that it could be carried out
on schedule, the country and Con
gress willing.
But D. Brainerd Holmes, 42,
who on Nov. 1, 1961, became di
rector of the Office of Manned
Space Flight in the National Aero
nautics and Space Administration
(NASA), wants out of the project.
The frustrations, poor pay, poli
tics, and budgetary haggling which
are a part of government serv
ice have proved to be more than
he can stomach.
Will Help In Transition
He will stick around as long as
NASA needs him to help make
the transition between the now
liquidated Mercury program of
one-man space flights and the
forthcoming two-man Gemini
project.
In the meantime, for personal,
financial, and family reasons," he
will be looking for a job in pri
vate industry that will pay him
more than the $21,000-a-year he
draws from NASA. Before he went
to NASA he was drawing more
than $50,0C0.
Holmes denies it, but some
his Mends tigure'he is leaving- tha
government in a mood bordering
on disgust.
NASA said there had been an
understanding when ho took on
the manned flight job that his
"obligation for government serv
ice" would end in two years.
Limit Unannounced
That was news. NASA had said
nothing about the two-year limit
when Holmes went to work.
However, in a private letter to
NASA Administrator James E.
Webb, Holmes had said he would
take stock after a couple of years
and see whether he wanted to
stay on the Apollo job.
Last year he openly disagreed
with Webb when the NASA admin
istrator decided not to ask Con
gress for a $400 million supple
mental appropriation Holmes felt
was vital to the manned flight
program.

WASHINGTON (UPI) Presi

ical care for the aged under Social
Security is "very vital" and pre
dicted that Congress will pass
such legislation this year.
The President made a strongly
worded speech on behalf of the
so-called Medicare bill before
about 1,000 cheering members of
of the National Council for Senior
Citizens. They met here to press
for the legislation.
"I think this bill will pass,"
the Chief Executive told them.
Asserting that no Western Euro

vide some form of medical care
for older citizens, Kennedy said:
"It's time the United States
caught up. I don't think we ought
to be second in anything."
Then, thumping the lecturn for
emphasis, he declared:
"My prediction certainly is that
if members of the House and Sen

Bend has been selected by the
Pacific Power & Light Co. as
headquarters for a new division
for its system operations, with the
division to embrace eastern and
Central Oregon and adjacent sec
tions of northern California serv
ed by the company.
This announcement was made
here today at a regional meeting
PP&L sales and management
personnel. Most of the sales per
sonnel at the meeting represented
tho districts that will make up
the new division.
Company officials said growth
and future prospects for more
growth of the economy of areas
of Oregon and northern California
east of the Cascade Range
prompted the move to establish
the new operating division that
will have its headquarters in
Bend.
Simultaneously, it was announc
ed that Howard Arnett, Portland,
veteran Oregon electric utility
executive, will be the manager
for the new Central Division of
PP&L's system.
Growing Statura
The formation of this new
operating division at this time rec
ognizes the growing stature of the
eastern and central Oregon area
and its future prospects for con
tinued progress' and develop
ment Albert Bauer, vice presi
dent and general managor of
PP&L said.
'"Bend Is a lofffcaf' center of
operations for the new division,
located as it is approximately
midway between the district oper
ations at The Dalles ana at Lane
view and Klamath Falls and south
into Tulelake, Dorris and Altur
as, California," he added.
The central division also will
embrace the Pendleton and En
terprise districts and the com
pany s service areas between
those eastern Oregon cities and
the Cascade range.
Bauer said the choice of Bend
for the session indicates the con
venience of Bend for the center of
commercial operations serving
the area. He said other firms
might well follow Pacific Power's
example by also establishing sales
and operating headquarters in the
city. He said PP&L's decision was
based on studies of the long-range
outlook for the continued construc
tive growth of the east-Cascades
area.

grim
after session
with leader
LONDON (UPI) Prime Minis
tor Harold Macmillan fought for
his political life at a crisis meet
ing of his cabinet for the second
time in two days today and po
litical observers said the next 24
hours might determine the fate of
his government.
Tho 69-year-old Conservative
party leader made it clear to his
ministers including three or
four reported to be considering
resigning that no matter what
they did he would seek to lead his
regime through the crisis caused
by the Profumo sex scandal,
Cabinet members filed grimly
out of the meeting, most of them
returning curt "no comments" to
questions. Minister of Health
Enoch Powell, reported in both
national afternoon newspapers to
be "on the brink" of resignation,
hurried away, his face sot and
unsmiling.
Political observers said one ma
jor resignation such as Powell'
might make it impossible or
Macmillan to hold together an
administration already under firs
not only from its opponents but
I from "the establishment," a term
I which covers the church, profes
sional class and aristocracy from
which it drew much of its strength.
Gives Curt Reply
Asked whether the government
would remain together. Minister
of Science Lord Hailsham snapped
"You find out." , v.
Minister of Housing Sir Keith
Joseph, who earlier had denied
that he planned to resign, said
"Every minister is concerned by
the moral issues," a comment
echoed by Deputy Prime Minister
R. A. Butler.
Although the Labor party bag
forced a parliamentary debate
Monday on the security aspect
of Uie Profumo case, it appeared
many political figures and tha
public at large were more con
cerned with what the bishop of
Southwark called "the smell of
corruption in high places."
Patrick Gordon Walker, who
would become foreign secretary
in a Labor government, returned
from Moscow saying, "It is time
to clean things up in Britain."
He called for Macmillan's resignation.
Stresses Security Aspect .
Gordon Walker said, however.
that Labor would concentrate in
tho House of Commons Monday on
whether there was a security
risk in tho fact resigned War Min
ister John Profumo shared the
favors of party girl Christine
Kecler with Capt. Eugene Ivanov,
a suspected Russian intelligence
agent.
Outspoken Sir Cyril Osborne, a
Conservative member o! parlia
ment, said: "There are too many
pimps and prostitutes in high
places. I have said this before
and I stick to my views."
Kinni Zilliacus, a Labor mem
ber, said:
"I have heard more juicy de
tails. I don't see how Macmillan
can possibly survive, tuner ne
knew all about this and covered
it up or he didn't know and is
unfit for the job."

Agreement reported near on steel
DOW JONES AVERAGES
By United Press International
Dow Jones final stock averages:
30 industrials 72q 43. off 1.93: 20
railroads 170 23, up 0 64; 15 utili
ties 139 32. off 0 52. and 65 stocks
256 95. off 0 44.
Sales today were about 4.69
million shares compared with 5.21
million shares Wednesday.
WASHINGTON (UPI) Gov
ernment oficials were pleased
today over reports that the na
tion's biggest steel firms might
be nearing agreement with the
Unitid Steelworkers union on con
tract changes.
Usually well-informed sources
said it appeared virtually certain
that the revisions including an
extended vacation plan would be
presented for approval to the
union's Executive Board and
Wage Policy Committee next
week.
If so, this would allow the cur
rent agreement due to expire Ju
ly 1, 1964, to be modified without
a formal re-opening that would
raise the threat of a strike.
Officials who deal with labor
management relations said that an
accord in the steel industry was
doubly important this year.
For one thing, they said, it
would remove the possibility of a
crippling shutdown of steel plants
this year that could upset the
economic advance.
, And there is a good chance
that a new agreement would ex-1
tend the contract for one or pos
sibly two years. That would mean j
a long strike-free period in the ;
troubled steel industry running j
through mid-1965 or I960. I
But administration labor offi-1
cials regarded the method used ,
to reach a settlement as the
most important factor in thei
steel picture.
Both sides bargained tnrougn a
human relations commission that
worked quietly for months on pro
posals to revise the contract. They
were able to operate without the I
pressure of a contract deadline
and away from the ballyhoo that i
has marked steel negotiations for I
the past 25 years.
Government and private ex
perts regard this type of "con
tinuous consultation" as a new d:
parture in bargaining that may
provide an alternative to strikes
and lockouts in many key indus
tries. It is considered especially valu
able fcr dealing with complicated
issues arising in contract negotia
tions concerning pensions, incen
tive plans and seniority prob
lems.
A similar commission at Kai
ser Steel Corp. included three
public members all veteran ar
bitrators and produced a pre
cedent - setting agreement on
plant-wide incentive payments.
Auto industry negotiations have
been scheduled to begin early in
hopes of smoothing the way to a
settlement before strike deadlines
complicate the talks for both
sides.
