Group Sees Report
Showing Savings
Made for State
By BILL FORCE '
Uniied Press Correspondent
G 3 Salem 01.R) Harry Dorman
and his State Department of
Finance and Administration
went on trial yesterday before
the House State and Federal Af
S fairs. Committee that is consid
ering a bill that would abolish
0 the department.
Dorman promptly handed the
s committee a copy of an ac
counting firm report which
showed his department was sav
ing the state some $2,200,000
every biennlum, more than
double the amount it takes to
operate all phases of vhe depart
ment. Pearson Makes Accusation
' Rep. Walter Pearson (D-Port-land),
one of the sponsors of the
2:S abolition ' bill, accused the de
partment of takings over the
functions of constitutional of
fices - and of absorbing other
state offices like a giant sponge.
He said its budget has increased
tremendously.
The budget for the, depart
ment this, year requests an ap
propriation of more than $790,
000. Last session the request
was for $575,442.
Rep. F. H. " Dammasch ' (R
Portland), who joined Pearson
in sponsoring .the bill, said, his
reason-for introducing the bill
was to bring the facts about
Dorman's operation into' 1 the
open and to quiet rumors about
the department's work. He said
Dorman should be allowed to
justify his budget request of
more than three-quarters-of-a-raillion
dollars. The department,
Dammasch . said, should have
" the wholehearted support of all
state, departments or the Legis
lature should correct' its, short
comings. . ! v
Witnesses Presented
Dorman then presented to
the committee a roomful of wit
5 nesses, .businessmen and heads
of state departments, .who testi
fied to their satisfaction with
,the Department of Finance and
Hheir respect . - for Dorman's
budgetary and" expense con
trols. ' ' . "
.Dorman's witnesses included
R. H. " Baldock, state highway
engineer; Mrs. Loa Howard Ma
son, administartor of the State
Y,Telf are Commission; Dr. John
Richards, chancellor-elect of the
state system of higher educa
tion: Dr. Harold Erickson, head
of the State Board of Health;
Mrs. Katherine Barseh, assistant
attorney general; Charles Terry,
state civil service director;
Charles Heltzel, public utilities
commissioner; George Spaur,
ss state forester, and Ti Morris
' e Dunne, head of the unemploy
ment compensation commission.
Cosis Said Decreased
Dorman defended his budget
requests with the claim that
actual, operation costs of his de
partment-have decreased and
that apparent increases could be
attributed to transfers from oth
er departments of budgeted sal
caries of personnel doing .work
for, the finance department and
the purchase of equipment
actually used in 'departments
. outside Dorman's.i , .
Dorman testified . that his of
fice purchases materials for the
state valued at $35,000,000 per
. biennium and spread over 155,
000 separate items. He conceded
that mistakes may have been
made, but he insisted, the . same
mistake was never made twice.
He said the cost of operating the
department compared favorably
with similar departments in
Michigan and Minnesota where
the volume of purchases was
similar. ' -: ' ,
At the close, of the hearing,
Pearson admitted that Dorman's
' purchasing' and budget divisions
were doing a sound job, but he
repeated his charge that the de
partment was growing beyond
control.

Patterson Unaware of
Republican Plans To
Draft Him for Senate
Salem (U.R) Gov. Paul Pat
terson said today he was too
busy with legislative problems
to think about future political
plansand that he knew nothing
of a reported Republican plan
to draft him to run for the U. S.
Senate next year. :
The Seattle Times said yester
day that top GOP strategists
want to draft Patterson and Gov.'
Arthur B. Langlie of Washing
ton to run for.the Senate next
year. Patterson ' presumably
would oppose Sen. Wayne Morse
and Langlie run against Demo
crat Warren G. Magnuson.
Langlie Denies Knowledge
Langlie, in Olympia, also de
nied knowledge of such plans.
However, both left the door
open for a possible draft at the
request of President Eisenhower.
Patterson and Langlie both
visited the president recently.
Both said he 'made no mention
of any such plan.
Patterson said yesterday, how
ever, "no American . could re
fuse a request tg do anything
to-, assist the President in his
work. But no such request has
been made of me." He added
that his statement was "in no
sense to be considered an an
nouncement or indication con
cerning any f u t u r e political
plans. I have none at this time,"
he said.
"At present I am busy trying
to help the Oregon Legislature
with its deliberations and I have
no thought' as to the political
future."
. . Langlie made a similar state
ment at Olympia.
Ike Would Campaign .'
The Times story said Mr.- Eis
enhower was reported to have
said he would campaign in Ore
gon and Washington in behalf
of Patterson and Langlie, The
newspaper said the plan to draft
the governors was worked out
by Sherman Adams, presiden
tial assistant, and Attorney Gen
eral Herbert Brownell.
Oregon State GOP Chairman
Ed Boehnke said he knew noth
ing about the report. "We're not
putting out anything on Repub
lican candidates until the State
Legislative session is over," he
said. -
Too Early Removal of Teeth
Can Cause Dental Troubles
(Editor's note: This is the
fifth in a series; of six articles
dealing with dental health.
They are being published in
cooperation, with the South
ern Oregon Denial society in
observance of National Chil
dren's Dental Health week, to
be observed Feb. 7 to 13. The
articles were prepared under
the . supervision of the Ameri
can Dental association.)
The "fairy godmother", who
rewards a youngster for placing
a tooth" under his pillow at night
may be doing the child grave
harm. If a first tooth is removed
or lost too soon, serious dental
troubles can result.
The adjacent teeth may
"drift" toward the opening left
by the lost tooth, causing the
succeeding permanent teeth to
appear in the wrong place.
The unhappy result may be a
severe case of highly . irregular
second teeth and ' an ;unsightly
appearance. In- order ' to avoid
this faulty tooth alignment, den
tists will sometimes recommend
use of a space maintainer when
certain primary teeth are lost
prematurely.
Belief Causes Damage
The belief that a child's first
teeth are not ' important "be
cause they will fall out any
way" has produced much dam
age to both teeth and appear?

Bill 125 to make only grade A
milk available to the consum
ing public was demonstrated at
a hearing yesterday afternoon
before the House Food and
Dairying Committee headed by
Rep. Leon S. Davis (R-Hills-boro).
Won't Increase Standards
Small producers and producer-distributors,
and consumers,
testified that the bill, which
they said was aimed at getting
the small "gallon jug" dairyman
out" of business in Oregon,
would not increase the health
standards of milk.
It was a consumer, Mrs. Mel
vin Cleveland of Salem, who
brought the house down with
the statement that she wanted
to continue to buy milk by the
jug in this area because the but
terfat content is not limited but
the natural milk is sold. A burst
of applause greeted her when
she said "when we buy at the
dairy by the jug, we get milk
with cream in it; cream that will
whip. When you have to buy
milk by the bottle, with the con
tent down to 3.8 per cent butter
fat instead of the six per cent
we get, it just doesn't taste as
good.''
' Rep. Joe Rogers (D-Indepen-
thoroughly with decayed teeth
or if teeth are missing or if the
teeth are badly out of position.
A child's first teeth usually
begin to appear when the baby
is between 6 and 8 months old.
The first ones to come in are the
two front teeth called central
incisors. By the time he reaches
2 or 2 years, he usually has
all his 20 first teeth. s
First Are Molars , ;
The permanent teeth begin to
appear when the child is about
6 years old. Usually these are
the four first permanent molars
or so-called "six-year molars."
They do not replace any of the
primary teeth but appear far
back in the mouth, just behind
the last of the primary molars.
There should be a word of
caution about, the six-year
molars. Because they do not
take the place of first teeth,
parents often mistake them for
so-called "baby teeth." These
six-year molars are highly im
portant as keys to the position
of the rest of the child's perman
ent teeth and are often called
"the keystones of the dental
arch.'V ' '
, All of a child's permanent i
teeth generally appear by . the I
time he is between 12 and 131
years old exceDt for the nerman-l
ent third molars or so-called
"wisdom teeth." These four
teeth ordinarily come in be
tween the ages of 17 and 21. .

' goodness in every ounce I
dence), committee member,
turned to Mrs. Cleveland when
she finished and said "Mrs.
Cleveland, I want you to meet
Rep. Elmer Deetz of Canby."
That drew a round of laugh
ter from the audience. Deetz (R
Canby), a member of the com
bittee, is the "gallon jug" dairy
man who successfully led the
fight to repeal the milk market
ing control act. .
John I. Gale, Canby dairyman
and executive secretary of the
Oregon producer-distributor
association, representing many
small producer-distributors, said
the bill was "designed to elim
inate competition and nothing
else." To the charge of what he
called "large distributors" that
grade B milk was unsafe, Gale
replied: "The State Department
of Agriculture set the regula
tions of grade B milk and if in
their opinion, the milk was not
safe, they would change the
regulations."
Object To Provisions ;
' Two provisions the small pro
ducers objected to were that in
order to get the grade A license,
they would have to buy expen
sive automatic capping ma
chines for their gallon jugs and
have a separate room for
bottling. . '
Harry Lane, Clackamas coun
ty "dairyman, said "this two
room idea is asinine. For years
there has been a trend toward
simplifying operations in pro
ducing milk, not making them
more complex." .
Mrs. Sally Fox, Molalla dairy
woman, "said the trend of sell
ing milk to families right at the
farm has actually ihcreased: con
sumption of milk because those
families are consuming more
milk than they ever did before
the by-the-gallon milk was
available.
And Fred E. Burgess of Vale
said passage of house bill 124 to
eliminate grade B milk would
"return us to 'bootleg' milk."
