No Harm Seen by Democratic Congress Portland (U.R) The Republican-registered president of the National Reclamation Associa tion said today election of a Democratic Congress would not hurt the nation's reclamation program.

Man May Make Any Provisions in Will, State Court Declares LAYAVAY Shop where TOYS are a business, not a sideline THE TOY HOUSE 28 South Bartlett Salem (U.R) A man may make any provision he wants in willing his estate to others, including a provision about re ligion, the Oregon Supreme Court ruled this week. The case arose out of a pro vision in the will of C. A. Rine hart, who did in 1932, which provided that his daughter, Merle Rinehart v Snodgrass, at the age of 32, should be paid the principal of a trust fund set up for her provided she had not embraced the Catholic faith cr married a man of Catholic faith. If she did embrace such faith or marry a Catholic, the fund was to be paid to other parties. Married Catholic Before she reached the age of 32, the daughter married a man of Catholic faith. The U. S. National Bank of Portland, as trustee, sought a declaratory judgment instructing it as to the disposition of the fund. Mrs. Snodgrass appealed from the Multnomah county court decree of Circuit Judge James T. Craw ford who found the will valid. Mrs. Snodgrass appealed. Jus tice Harold J. Warner, in writ ing the high court opinion af firming the trial court, said the court must guard against being judicially intolerant of , "intol erance" unless the court can say that the act of intolerance is in a form not sanctioned by law. He wrote: Nothing in Law "There is nothing in our or ganic or statutory law or in prior decisions of this court which would strike down or limit a testamentary expression in the form Mr. Rinehart elect ed to use in providing for his daughter." . Justice Warner said it has long been a firmly established policy in Oregon to give wide latitude to a testator in the final disposition of his estate. He ob served that state and federal constitutional provisions regard ing freedom of religion and civil rights and restrictions on the government and do not ap ply to acts of private citizens. Justice James T. Brand dis sented.

MAIN PHONE 2-2939 MEDFORD Leaders of Political Parties Differ Over Definition of Vote Washington (U.R) Politi cians of both parties have raked the debris of Tuesday's election contests in search of a trend which most of them found hard to detect and harder still to de fine. There was a notable lack of agreement among the Democrats on why they registered gains. And most Republicans shied away from assigning any over riding reason or reasons for their loss of Congressional con trol and seven governorships. Truman Tells Reason Former President Harry S. Truman told reporters at Inde pendence, Mo., that Democratic victories reflected more than casual dissatisfaction with the Eisenhower administration. But President Eisenhower told his news conference Wednesday that he did not consider the re sults a repudiation of his pol icies in any sense. Het expressed the belief that most Americans support his moderate approach to national and international problems. Other comments: Chairman Leonard W. Hall of the Republican National Com mittee "There is no trend or sweep apparent against either the Republican party or the Eisenhower administ ration. There was a complete lack of pattern in the matter of seats gained or lost in both houses." Democrats on Way Back Chairman Stephen A. Mitch ell of the Democratic National Committee "The most impor tant single fact to us" is that "the Democrats are on the way back." Senate Democratic leader Lyn don B. Johnson "The Amer ican people rejected extreme officials. Oregon Lumber operates a sawmil land hardboard plant at Dee in Hood River county, a sawmill at Bates and a remanu facturing plant at Baker. The Hines company hs lumber operations at Seneca and Hines and plywood and lumber mills at Westfir. partisan appeals and voted on a highly selective basis.. The re sult places a burden on mem bers of both parties in Congress to put their country above par tisan considerations and to act upon the highest principles of statesmanship." Sen. Wayne L. Morse (Ind.- Cre.) " . . . The reactionary record of the Eisenhower ad ministration was repudiated by the majority of the voters of the country." Ullman-Curfman Firm Gets 30-Day Permit Suspension Salem U.R) Ragnor John son, Oregon Real Estate Com missioner, has announced the temporary suspension of the real estate broker's license of E. R. Curfman and Albert Ullman of Baker. The suspension is effective Nov. 10 for a period of 30 days. Johnson said the suspension was based on a finding of improper dealings by Curfman and Ull man as a result of a hearing held in Baker Oct. 27. The hearing was on a complaint by Ferrin M. Woll f Ontario. Ore., who alleged that he was not prop erly informed as to secondary financing in the purchase of a house in Baker .in 1947. On Basis of Evidence Johnson said members of the Oregon Real Estate Board rec ommended the suspension on the basis of the evidence taken at the hearing. The Oregon Democratic party organization had charged John son with political motives in bringing the charge just prior to the election. Ullman was Democrat candidate for congress from the second congressional district. He was defeated by Republican incumbent Sam Coon. - More than one-half of the oil wells drilled in the U.
