City is asking for headaches
in changing apartment zoning
'. Bend City Commissioners are
in the process of voting themselves
ant future commissioners some
headaches that aren't necessary.
' What the Commission is doing,
to break it down to its simplest
form, is to breach the current zoning
code so that apartment houses can
be . constructed in any residential
aroli of Bend. This has always been
possible, at least in theory, but the
current action makes it much easier.
Heretofore, apartment houses
have been zoned R-1. In order to
build them in an R-l or R-2 residen
tial zone, an area had to be re-zoned.
This was a pretty difficult thing to
do.
Commissioners are voting to re
move apartment dwellings from R-4
and place them under section 1S.2 of
the city zoning code. This section is
a catch-all for uses other than those
already spoiled out in the zoning
code. It allows the City to place
certain businesses in any zone, de
pending upon the judgment of the
City Commission.
Included in 1S.2 are such uses
as cemeteries, private clubs, day
nurseries, hospitals, government en
terprises and other not-so-definable
commercial enterprises. Now apart
ment houses have been added to
this section.
We suppose that the action has
been triggered by a recent flurry of
activity by developers who seek to
build apartments in residential
zones, plus the fact that Bend is in
need of such dwellings. It lias also
been said that some members of the
Commission who approved the ac
tion are piqued at the Planning
Commission for a number of
reasons. The Planners, of course,
wanted to leave apartment dwell
ings under R-4 where they have al
ways been.
Be that as it may, we think the
Commission made a mistake. The
only thing now standing in the way
of an apartment building in an R-l
residential zone is the Commission
itself, which must approve all such
applications. Formerly, we at least
had a zoning ordinance.
The present Commission might
be strong enough to withstand pres
sure to build in areas where no
apartment building should stand.
But what about future Commis
sions? As we understand the goings-on
at City Hall, a committee appointed
by the Commission is now working
on updating and modernizing Bend's
zoning laws. It would seem prudent
to have let this committee make its
recommendations before enacting a
potentially explosive issue.
Glenn H. Gregg served his community
Glenn If. Gregg served well the
community that was his home for
22 years.
For 10 years lie was a member
of the Bend School District board.
He served as chairman of the United
Fund Drive. In 1953, he headed the
Bend Mirror Pond Pageant com
mittee, and presented one of the
finest fetes ever seen on the Des
chutes, lie was a past president of
the Bend Chamber of Commerce,
and a past director of the Bend Golf
Club.
Mr. Gregg also was active in the
move that resulted in the construc
tion here of the new St. Charles Me
morial Hospital, working closely
with loaders of that move, the late
Robert W. Sawyer and Carl A. John
son. In recognition of his service to
the community, it was only natural
that Glenn Gregg should be honored
as Bend's outstanding senior citizen.
This honor was conferred on him in
January, 1951.
Friendly Glenn Gregg, always
eager to assist those who needed
help, will be missed by many. On
behalf of the community, The Bul
letin extends condolences to his family.
People plus money equals concert
The favorite yeai-around pas
time of many of us is telling each
other that Central Oregon is a great
place to live because it has the best
people.
There may be some debate on
this point from our friends in other
areas. But a recent occurrence
served to solidify that opinion in the
minds of the people at The Bulletin.
We thought our readers might like
to hear about it.
When the Portland Symphony
was contracted to come to Bend, the
cost was tabbed at .,,r00. The Jay
cees agreed to take on the job of
ticket sales with the stipulation that
they wouldn't have to make up any
deficits that might occur.
At this juncture, it looked like
(here would be no concert. Nobody
was sure that !2,ri0 worth of tickets
could be sold.
Five Bend residents, sitting
around a table over coffee, thought
something ought to be done. So they
agreed to help underwrite any loss
es, out of their own pockets. Then
they decided to try to split the risk
further by calling on other friends.
Twenty calls were made by tele
phone. Fach person called was told
lie would have to guarantee $30 of
losses at a maximum. Out of the 20
calls, there were 20 acceptances.
Not one turned the caller down.
As it turned out, the concert lost
over $ 100. This means each guaran
tor will have to put up around $25.
The hundreds who enjoyed the
concert should know that it wouldn't
have been possible except for the
guarantors, whose names appeared
on the program as sponsors. This is
a pretty good example of the kind
of people we have in Central Oregon.
First of Five Parts
By Harry Ferguson
UPI Staff Writer
WASHINGTON (UPI) No
one knows for sure whether the
American husband is the
world's unhappiest man, but
there is no doubt he is the most
criticized. Experts in social be
havior amateur and profes
sional, foreign and domestic
keep him constantly under the
microscope and describe in mil
lions of words how and why he
squirms.
German men consider the
American husband a sucker
because of the way he handles
his money. In Germany many
women can't say for sure how
much their husband earns be
cause it isn't considered any of
their business. They accept
whatever housekeeping money
they receive and keep their
mouths shut.
British men shake their
heads in wonderment over t h e
way American men are bullied
by their children, especially the
teen-agers. "Children in this
country," notes the London bu
rc;iu of UPI, "are more to be
seen than heard. When com
pany comes, t h e children are
fed separately." A thorough
whacking on the seat of the
pants, both at school and at
home, is still highly esteemed
in Britain as a corrective meas
ure. Frenchmen cannot under
stand why Americans work
themselves to death to provide
things their family doesn't real
ly need. Their most prevalent
theory is that the American
husband is a sort of voluntary
slave indentured for life to a
woman who lashes him period
ically with demands for jewel
ry, expensive clothing end hats
she doesn't need. French wives
accept as a fact of life that it
is possible to cook a meal and
dispose of the dishes without
the help of enough electric
kitchen gadgets to operate a
space capsule.
Marries Earlier
The American male plunges
into marriage at an earlier age
and with less thought than any
man on earth. Every behavior
expert who studies the situa
tion notes the increasing num
ber of teen-age marriages, and
the subsequent high divorce
rate. Only seven per cent of
the American women in their
thirties have never been mar
ried. Comparable statistics for
Great Britain are 18 per cent
and for France 28 per cent.
One out of every 4.5 Ameri
can marriages ends in divorce,
the world's highest rate. There
is no way to measure the num
ber of men who remain mar
ried even though they are un
happy, and, as one philoso
pher puts it, "leading lives of
quiet desperation." Apparently
only a small percentage, of
these men seek the assistance
of marriage experts and coun
selors, and Dr. Paul Popenoe
of the American Institute of
Family Relations cites the case
history of one of them:
"Mr. H said: 'I put in a full
day at the factory and by the
time I get home about a quar
ter to six I am glad to lie
down and rest. But my wife
meets me at the door and tells
me the two kids are driving
her crazy and will I please
take them off her hands? And
will I at the same time vacu
um the rug, sweep off the front
porch and the sidewalk and
bring in the clothes from the
line as she didn't have time?
It turns nut she was in the park
with the children all after
noon.' "
The American standard of
living is the highest in the
world, and American women
expect to. start enjoying it as
soon as they are married, or
at least without allowing suffi
cient time for the husband's
income to rise to the level of
their needs and wants. Sociolo
gist James W. Gladden of the
University of Kentucky got
some interesting answers when
he conducted a survey among
girls on what they expected
their husbands to do besides
support them:
Seventy per cent said they
expected outside help.
Fifty-four per cent expect
ed their husbands to straighten
up the bouse occasionally.
Forty-four per cent de
manded that the husband pre
pare the meals occasionally.
Fifty-four per cent said
they expected their husbands to
make the beds, "but only rare
ly." Sixty per cent expected
him to dispose of the garbage
every day.
There was general agree
ment that husbands should re
member birthdays, anniversar
ies and other "special" days,
that husbands should be adept
in "adapting themselves to the
various moods and changes so
typical of women," that wives
should be treated after mar
riage just as they were before.
Rules Changed
After marriage, a new set of
rules apparently is drawn up in
the feminine mind, and Dr.
Popenoe tells the results of a
survey among women in Co
lumbus, Ohio, on what the ideal
husband should do. Some of
them:
Tell interesting things about
his work. Do thoughtful things
the wife does not expect him to
do. Sense when his wife wants
affection and when she doesn't.
Clean cut the bathtub and wash
basin after using them. Appre
ciate and praise new dishes the
wife prepares. Know how to
pull the wife out of the
dumps when she gets Into
them. Always telephone when
he is going to be late to din
ner. Never talk about his for
mer girl friends. Enjoy reading
and discussing good books with
his wife.
Next: Nagging wives and what
they do to marriages.

Jack reported irritated at

By Jack Anderson
WASHINGTON President

urged her to hurry home.
He was irritated, say inti

back in time to help entertain
the Irish Prime Minister.
He was also disturbed over
the little-tattle, the acid - sweet
whispers going around Washing
ton about her Mediterranean
merry-making.

Job of living
needs balance
By Elizabeth Chenoweth
People tend to live for just
the present or just the future.
Which of these two is best to
live for, is debated everyday.
Some people say, live each
day as though it were your
last. Well, this is fine in the
idea. One should be nice to
every one else, get as much as
possible accomplished, and en
joy every minute, but, if it were
my last day, I would spend all
my money, visit all my friends,
and do everything (almost) I
haven't done before. Of course
as one can see, this procedure
every day would get a little out
of hand.
Some people say, set goals
and then work for them. Usual
ly these people don't know how
to have fun because they have
spent all their time working
and have no time to enjoy
themselves. You know the say
ing, "all work and no play
makes Jim a dull boy."
What 1 have been leading up
to is too many of our teens to
day, not mentioning adults, be
long to one of these extremes.
Some of us tend to spend too
much of our time playing and
not enough time preparing for
what is ahead. These people
say. "Well, I might be dead to
morrow, so why not have fun
today?" Then there's the other
extreme that studies all the
time. These people spend all
their time at their desk or at
the library. They are the peo
ple that take their teacher's
lectures too seriously, and prac
tically kill themselves trying to
learn everything. Of course this
really doesn't help them.
To fit irto society one has to
have a well rounded personal
ity. Not all teenagers go to such
extremes, but you'd be surpris
ed to see how close they come!
Teenagers should work to
achieve a balance between
those two extremes.
You don't want to grow up to
be like some of the "unbal
anced" adults would vou?"
suggests that Jackie, distraught
over the loss of her baby, had
been chilled by her husband's
absorption with world problems.
"Running off to the Mediter
ranean was her way of punish
ing the President," muses this
friend, "but it is more likely to
make a marital martyr of
him."
Intimates recall too many
tender little incidents, however,
to believe there could be any
serious trouble between the
First Couple.
At Hyannis Port in 1960 as
Kennedy was surrounded by the
tumult of victory, Jackie strol
led off alone. Suddenly he miss
ed her.
"Where's Jackie?" he de
manded, and strode off to find
her.
The day they moved into the
White House, before departing
for the glittering inaugural
balls, the new President an
nounced to the few friends who
were to accompany them: "I
want to drink a toast to my
wife."
Then he raised his cham
pagne glass to Jackie, radiant
in white, and said: "I have
never seen you look more beau
tiful." Intimates insist Jackie Is in
tensely loyal to her husband,
gives him sympathy and under
standing during the soul search
ing every president must en
dure. Yet she never Intrudes, rare
ly visits his office. Only during
the Cuban crisis, when the
world hung on the brink of a
holocaust, did she break her
own rule and drop by the office
once or twice a day. In her
own way, she tried to case the
strain.
At least once during the cri
sis, intimates saw the Presi
dent leave his desk to walk
with her in the garden.
Their marriage may not have
been sprinkled entirely with
rose petals, say those who
should know, but it has become
(irmly rooted.

Senator Wayne Morse is giving Udall, Duncan
fits with his position on Oregon Dunes Park
By A. Robert Smith
Bulletin Correspondent
WASHINGTON At Interior
Secretary Stewart Udall's news
conference last Tuesday he was
asked whether he and President
Kennedy, while flying over the
Oregon Dunes in September,
had been able to convert Sen.
Wayne Morse to support their
proposal for establishing a na
tional park at the Dunes.
Udall grinned and said that
he concluded from all the con
versation on the President's
plane that "Senator Morse fa
vors it."
Privately, however, Udall and
other advocates of the Oregon
Dunes park are deeply troubled
by reports that the park bill
may be stripped of one of its
key provisions at Morse's behind-the-scenes
insistence.
The key provision is the pow
er of condemnation which is
normally granted to public
agencies in creating parks, lo
cating highways, implementing
urban renewal projects, etc.
This government power to take
property for a public use, pay
ing the owner a fair price set
by the courts, is the establish
ed method by which the public
interest in recreation facilities,
new roads and slum clearance
is fulfilled against the conflict
ing interests of private proper
ty owners.
But Morse, who usually fa
vors such public improvements,
has become a champion of a
few private property owners in
the case of the Oregon Dunes
park. He has informed the Sen

Hatfield gets big
'no' vote for prexy
To the Editor:
Hatfield for our next Presi
dent. . .and then we can all
starve to death, or take us over
40 people out and shoot us, at
least that would solve the prob
lem. But then who would be
left to blackmail into voting, so
some of our good servants can
vote themselves a $250.00 raise.
Or has he (Hatfield) forgot
ten what the Good Book teach
es about the way we are to
treat our older folks?
Or has the rest of our good
blackmailers forgotten that it is
a lot of these people they want
to starve to death who put them
where they can enjoy their
$250.00 a month raise? Lest they
forget, we can put them right
out of office again too.
I repeat, Hatfield for Presi
dent, and we can all starve to
death. He will have Oregon as
a school on how to blackmail
the rest of the country.
He will sure get my vote, as
big a "no" as the pencil will
make.

Bend, Oregon,

The Beach
park tends to minimize the Is
sue raised by Morse, but it
doesn't eliminate it.
Duncan, who as a congress
man representing the Dunes
ment, believes condemnation
powers are justified and need
ed, as does Mrs. Neuberger.
Their bills are similar in pro
tecting owners of residential
property with this restraint on
government authority: if local
zoning by-laws are adopted to
guarantee against undesirable
conditions, such as honky tonk
commercialism, then residential
property in the park cannot be
condemned; and owners can
continue to live in their homes
or sell them to other private
persons if they wish.
In short, such restrained ap
plication of condemnation auth
ority is designed to protect both
the public's interest in preserv
ing the scenic character of the
area and the residents' interest
in not being bought out by the
government without their con
sent. The weakness of Morse's po
sition is that it fails to offer the
public the future visitors to
such an outdoor recreation area
any guarantee that they
won't encounter undesirable
honky tonks nestled unpleasant
ly within the park.
The same Senate subcommit
tee has appoved numerous oth
er park bills which included
condemnation authority. With
out it, the Park Service would
be powerless to deal with a
cheap beer joint within the
boundaries of the new Cape
Cod National Seashore park, or
to touch the Gold Nugget Sa
loon, a gambling joint, in Lake
Meade Recreation Area.
When the committee finishes
drawing boundaries for the Ore
gon Dunes park, there may be
no such undesirable establish
ments in the park. But if the
Senate bows to Morse, or the
senator doesn't modify his po
sition, there will be no protec
tion against some enterprising
operators setting up honky
tonks and thumbing their noses
at the disapproving park
rangers, conservationists and
citizens who believe that a
scenic park should be spared
the wicked ways of the city.
