receive oath
SALEM (UPI)-Two new indus
trial accident commissioners were
sworn in today by Gov. Mark Hat
field, who then made an unprece
dented appearance before com
mission employes and urged them
to "continue working forward, on
I ward and upward to make this
the best program in the nation."
The action came on the heels
of Monday's public hearing on
charges of "inefficiency in office"
against commissioner Emily P.
Logan. Mrs. Logan refused to an
swer charges at the hearing, and
termed the affair a "kangaroo
court."
Her attorney, Ernest Bonyhadi,
questioned the legality of proce
dures followed by Hatfield, and
said he had not yet decided
whether to take the issue to the
courts, or to answer the charges
in a public statement.
Mrs. Logan and Commission
Chairman Sidney B. Lewis re
ceived dismissal notices, effective
today, on June 11. Monday's hear
ing was set in case either wanted
to dispute the charge.
Lewis resigned Friday, and a
few hours later Wilfred A. Jordan.
Coos Bay Republican, was named
to succeed him.
Shortly after Monday's hearing,
Hatfield named Grants Pass May
or Charles B. Gill Jr., a Demo
crat, to succeed Mrs. Logan.
Jordan was sworn in at 7:55
a.m. today, then in a move that
surprised several members of the
governor's staff. Gill was sworn
in at 8 a.m.
Spaach Follows
As soon as the ceremony was
over, Hatfield asked if commis
sion employes could be called to
gether. The governor, accompanied by
the new commissioners and a
dozen commission staff officers,
strode to the labor and industries
building.
Hundreds of employes were
standing in the conference room
when the party arrived.
Hatfield thanked the workers
, lor "carrying on during. Jhe recent
difficult times.
"Wa have a chance to begin
anew to make this the best pro
gram in the country.
"Today is a pleasant day in
contrast to yesterday," Hatfield
remarked. He then introduced the
Dew commissioners.
As the governor left the room
workman was pulling name
plates from the offices formerly
occupied by Lewis and Mrs. Lo
gan. Hatfield commented "I wanted
to help settle the staff down, nat
urally they've been in turmoil."

Weary county budget
committee ends work
i By lis S. Grant
j Bulletin Staff Writer
j The 1963-64 Deschutes county
i budget was put to bed this morn
ing a few minutes before 2
o'clock. There were almost six
hours of deliberating, long silen
ces and vocal concern about the
i elimination of Civil Defense. In
j the final few minutes before ad
journment, the six budget makers
put the stamp of approval
somewhat reluctantly on a bud
get that will lick up practically
every cent of the six per cent
increase that is allowable with
out a budget election.
The budget calls for a levy ten
tatively figured at $437,871.42, an
increase of $24,000 over last
year. It provides for $59,000 nest
egg to start a sinking fund for
eventual additions to the court
house. It has a $15,000 emergency
fund, triple last year's amount, to
cope with the possible high cost
of sending Civil Defense down the
drain.
The county was presented with
a bill for $24,017.99, to reimburse
tlie federal government for, equip
ment purchased with county-federal
matching funds, under Civil
Defense. It was ordered to return
surplus property valued at $60,
930.55, at first believed to be out
right grants.
It was not understood by bud
get makers until a few weeks
ago that title to surplus property
thus received by the county and
other local government divisions
remains with the federal govern
ment. Even last night, there was
talk of retaining some sort of a
Civil Defense program, in order
to hold on to the equipment, and
delay the time of reckoning.
In Phone Conversation
The figures for the cash obliga
tion to the federal government,
were given to William C. James,
county Civil Defense director, in
a telephone conversation with Uie
Region 8 Civil Defense office in
Everett, Wash. Some surprise was
expressed that Uie federal agency
could come tip with the figures
within a week after the program
was thrown out.
A check of a Civil Defense in
ventory prepared earlier by
James indicated that the county
will be able to keep a good share
of the communications equipment
by paying the federal govern

AJrmen cleared
of involvement
in Profumo case
WASHINGTON (UPD-The De
fense Department today cleared
three U.S. Air Force men who
were flown home from Britain
for questioning in the Profumo
sef and security scandals.
The airmen were not identified.
But the department said investi
gation had shown that none was
"involved directly or indirectly in
any way. or had any knowledge"
concerning the case.
It did say, however, that two
of them had met a girl named
"Christine". This was presumed
to be party girl Christine Keelcr
around whom the British scandal
has centered.
But the department added:
"They had no intimate contact
with her and didn't even know
her last name until they reaTj the
publicity concerning her in the
newspapers."

the significance of what she had

be returned includes generators,
office equipment and various
items located throughout the
county. Also to be returned are
all radiological monitoring equip
ment, the mobile hospital at Uie
Brooks-Scanlon plant and other
items that were strictly federal
programs, not involving county
participation.
Two Months Salary
The budget committee voted to
allow $2500 to close out the Civil
Defense program. This will pro
vide two months salary for
James, and a small amount for
manpower and freight, to dispose
of the goods.
James was not sure how the
dispersal would be handled, but
said that probably someone would
be sent from the regional office
to assist with the bookwork. The
items will have to be negotiated

Budget makers expressed Uie
feeling that as slowly as the fed
eral government works, the final
showdown may not come this
year. Court members said that
the federal government would
withhold payment for sharing
programs other- than Civil De
fense, in order to balance the
books. It was on these grounds
that the increase in the emer
gency fund, in order to reimburse
whatever departments may be
affected, was justified.

weekly meetings. When the vote
was taken on the sinking fund
item, John Stcnkamp and Robert
Whittier, appointive members
cast negative votes.
Both Slenkamp and Whittier
had expressed the desire to keep
the budget under the full amount
allowed by a six per cent in
crease. They pointed out that if
an increase is needed later, the
largest budget in the immediately
preceding three-year period can
be used as a base. An effort to
keep taxes down was given as
their reason.
Sale of Land
The money for the increased
emergency fund and the sinking
fund comes mostly from the sale
of county land, which amounted
to approximately $40,000 in the
fiscal year now ending. Bernard
C. Davis, the county agent, said
that the land sales have been
saving the day in the past two
years. "I don't think you can
count on this source of revenue
much longer," he said. For pur
poses of determing next year's
receipts, he estimated $15,
000 from Uie sale of tax land in
1963-1964.
Commissioner Fred Shepard
was set against putting the extra
$10,000 in Uie emergency fund,

struggle, saying in effect, "Let's

Big throng
greets Chief
at Frankfurt
FRANKFURT. Germany (UPD
President Kennedy pledged to
day Uiat Uie United States would
risk its own cities to defend its
allies.
"A threat to the freedom of Eu
rope is a threat to Uie freedom
of America," the President said
in a speech at the historic Pauls
kirche (St. Paul's Church), which
is regarded as the cradle of Ger
man democracy. ;
A million cheering Germans
greeted the President as he ar
rived here to make the speech
that was billed as the major ad
dress of his I2-day-tour of West
Germany, Berlin, Ireland, and
Britain. Reporters who have trav
eled with Kennedy said it was
perhaps the most enthusiastic
welcome he has received abroad.
An Enthusiastic Welcome
The 20-mile route from Hanau,
where the President reviewed
15,000 American servicemen, was
lined three to five persons deep
all the way.
The crowd in front of Frank
furt's city hall, where the Presi
dent climbed out of his bubble-
topped car and went inside to
sign the famous "golden book" of
celebrities, was so enthusiastic in
its welcome that it almost got out
of hand.
While he emphasized defense
matters, the Chief Executive also
called for economic unity and
common political purpose as req
uisites to successful western re
sistance to Communist pen
etration. The White House staff re-ded
Kennedy's prepared t aulskirche
speech as Uie most important ut
terance of his four-day visit to
West Germany, Uie first stop on
his 12-day European tour.
Aimed At Critics
The main Uirust of the speech
was aimed at international critics
who have forecast that the United
States ultimately will welsh on
defense commitments to its West
ern Allies and revert to what Uie
President scorned as "narrow na
tionalism." The President, Who came here
from two days of talks in Bonn
with Chancellor Konrad Ade
nauer, vowed that American de
fense commitments to protect
"common freedom and safety"
were assured "by one great fun
damental fact that they are
deeply rooted in America's own
self interest."
"Our commitment to Europe is
indispensable in our interest as
well as yours," he said to a large
Frankfurt audience and television
viewers across Western Europe.
"A threat to the freedom of Eu
rope is a threat to the freedom
of America."
Kennedy arrived in Frankfurt
after conferring with West Berlin
Mayor Willy Brandt in Bonn and
visiting American troops near
Hanau in his role as commander-in-chief.
He flies to Berlin
Wednesday.
The building in which the
President delivered his speech
here is an ancient church in the
heart of Frankfurt where Uie first
aU German parliament met in
1848.
To drive home his conviction
that defense of the Atlantic com
munity is indivisible, Kennedy
said in his speech:
"The United States will risk its
cities to defend yours because we
need your freedom to protect
ours. Hundreds of thousands of
our soldiers serve with yours on
this continent as tangible evi
dence of that pledge. Those who
would doubt our pledge or deny
this indivisibility Uiose who
would separate Europe from
America or split one ally from
another would only give aid and
comfort to Uie men who make
themselves our adversaries and
welcome any Western disarray."
