PAGE TWELVE MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 194L TEACHERS ATTEND AND CONFERENCE 812 Educators of Southern Oregon Are Welcomed By Normal School President. Southern Oregon College of Education, Ashland, Nov. 18. (Spl) The seventh annual Edu cational Conference and Teach ers' Institute, sponsored Jointly by the Southern Oregon College of Education, the Oregon State Teachers' association, and the counties of Jackson, Josephine, Klamath, and Lake, opened Monday morning with registra tion of all teachers in the phys ical education building. The general session in the af ternoon was opened by Dr. Wal ter Redford, president of the Southern Oregon College of Ed ucation, who welcomed 812 teachers on behalf of the col lege. Assembly singing was led by Dr. D. V. Poling, represen tative of the state system of higher education. Greeted By Leader Mrs. Isabella Brixner, presi dent of the Oregon State Teach ers' association, greeted the teachers on behalf of the asso ciation. She outlined the ac complishments of Oregon State Teachers during the past year and also presented the aims and needs to be accomplished dur ing the coming year. "Our regular program In vo cational education has been go ing on In Oregon for better than 20 years, and the reason Is that the program started in 1919 be cause the federal government was very anxious to promote vocational education." This statement by O. I. Paulson, act ing state director of the State Board for Vocational Education, introduced a discussion by him of what the vacational program is doing. Mr. Paulson stated that the vocational education program in Oregon is training men to take Jobs In vital defense Industries. - The national defense training division of the vocational edu cation program was created to train men In a short length of time. When there Is a need for men who are skilled along cer tain lines, the defense training division sets up classes In co operation with the local school districts so that the men are ready when they are needed. Mr. Paulson stated, "Last year we trained 18.000 people. In July alone we sent 862 men to the Boeing Aircraft company." Bural Classes In addition to the regular training classes, the vocational education program has organ ized the Out-of-School Rural Program. This program was de signed to train young men to carry on In the Jobs left by others who would be taking reg ular defense Jobs and to take care of running the farms. Dr. Carl Sumner Knopf, new president of Willamette unlver sity, addressed the general as sembly on "Education Faces the Dawn." Dr. Knopf discussed the three major struggles In which mankind has been engrossed since the beginnings of civiliza tion political freedom, ecclesl astlcal freedom, and economic freedom. Dr. Knopf stated that we have accomplished freedom of poli tics, religion, and economics, but now we don't know what to do with them. The freedoms have developed to such an ex tent that we have numerous di visions In them we are trying now to adjust ourselves to them In conclusion Dr. Knopf stated that "History says 'On- On- Up ward! Upward!' We have had these great surges before, but you can't defeat God!" Holdup Victim I Held by Tongue During Beating Portland, Nov. 18.

GIVEN CAMP USE AT LA WOODS Action By Forest Service Assures Annual Camp For Underprivileged Children. L BY SENATE GROUP Answer To Problem of Raw Material Is Seen In Un touched Western Ores. Washington, Nov. 18. P) A senate subcommittee urged to day after a study of western mineral resources that "concen trated attention" be given "pro duction of materials which we have In abundance but have not used." Foreseeing rationing of raw materials in the industrial de fense effort and pointing out that manufacture of automo biles had been curtailed and the construction Industry restricted, the group stated In a prelimi nary report that its information "Dointedly raises the question as to whether or not it is neces sary to make such severe cuts in civil Industry." Hearings iUnfinished The report was submitted by Senator O'Mahoney (D., Wyo.), chairman of a public lands and surveys subcommittee, and was authorized, it was explained, because of the importance of material already gathered, al though hearings were not com pleted and the committee was not ready to suggest legislation. The report stated hearings so far Indicated "that the west holds the answer to current problems of raw material short ages which threaten the stabil ity of great segments of indus trial activity and dangerous increase In the cost of living." Increased production of ma terials from huge undeveloped resources in the western states," the subcommittee found, "would obviously tend to meet the de mands of both defense and civil- Ian Industries and off-set dan gerous Inflationary tendencies." Imports Cited As proof of Its contention that "we have neglected our own resources and have been content to depend upon the out put of other lands," the report cited tungsten from China, man ganese from Russia's Caucasus mountain area "which Is now about to be oveirun by the Nazis," and chrome from Africa all found in the west. "The undeveloped mineral re serves of the western states," the report declared, "constitute a challenge to a people who are rich beyond their dreams, but who have been led to believe that they are poor In the mate rials that they need." The subcommittee heard of numerous Instances of undevel oped deposits of important min erals which awaited only the necessary capital for their ex traction and conversion to use, but found that "deplorably little has been done In aid of the development of these known deposits. Most of the defense effort has been centered In the east." Rogue River national forest headquarters today announced the Issuance of a special use permit to the Salvation Army for use of the CCC side camp at Lake o' Woods as recrea tion center. It was stipulated in the agreement that the side camp would be available to other organizations for recrea tional use, headquarters said. The Salvation Army will have complete control of the side camp and others using It will pay rental to the Salvation Army, the forest headquarters stated. The Salvation army will be required to maintain and ser vice the camp, whatever rentals it receives to be utilized for this purpose. Assures Camp Primary aim of the move is to afford an additional recrea tional area at Lake o' Woods which has rapidly become a popular rendezvous of forest recreationlsts.

The buildings Include a dormitory each for boys and girls, a dining hall and bath houses. There Is acreage also for a playground. New Foundations The CCC yesterday completed construction of new foundations for some of the buildings, the erection of partitions In the buildings to make them more useful for recreational purposes and rearrangement of the plumbing. The Salvation Army is to install whatever other equipment and facilities are needed. This was said to be the first venture of its kind undertaken by the U. S. forest service. While main CCC camps are under army control, side camps are owned by the technical agency erecting, them, forest headquarters explained. Port able buildings are on hand In case another ,slde camp should be needed in the forest and if another is Installed at Lake o' Woods it will be placed on a site not so valuable for recrea tional use as the area of the camp being turned over to the Salvation Army under the spe cial use permit, the forest office said. - Clodng urn tut Claaanad Ads 8 . m Too Lw to CUaufj 1340 p invents tohpedo Salem, Nov. 18.
