Clearing on Junior College Measure
Slated ifor Capital Building April 22
Salem U.P.) A hearing on a
measure designed to encourage
the establishment of junior col
leges will be held here a week
frcra today, April 22. at 1 p.m.
in room 309 In the state capitol.
The measure was sent to the
Senate-Education committee yes
terday after a stormy session in
which Sen. Gene Brown (R.
Grants Pass) said that such re
ferral would mean "in indecent
burial of the bill."
The measure, designed to en
courage the establishment of
junior college and thus ease the
load on four-year institutions of
higher learning, has been ap
proved by the Ways and Means
committee. Sen. Brown said it
should go directly to the floor
lor final action the same as any
other appropriation bill.
Moy for Action. Fails
He moved to put the bill up
for final floor action Saturday
tomorrow but the motion lost
and Senate President Elmo E.
Smith (R.-John Day) referred
the measure to the committee on
education.
The bill, introduced by Rep.
r- Harvey De Armond (R.-Bend)
would provide that the State
Board of Higher Education pay
$1000 to each school district
which establishes a junior col
lege and in addition, $100 for
each average full-time student.
Brown said the State Board of
Higher Education had taken no
position when the bill was in
troduced, but after it had passed
the House, dubbed it premature
"and therefore unwise." He ex
pressed belief that the board had
failed to keep faith with the
committee that considered the
bill.
But Sen. Howard Belton CR.
Canby) co-chairman of the Ways
and Means committee, said the
bill was not a ways and means
measure, and added that the
senators had not had enough
time to give it full consideration.
Sen. Robert D. Holmes (D.
Gearhart) said the act which au
thorized establishment of junior
colleges was passed with the un
derstanding that each school dis
trict establishing such an Insti
tution would finance it in full.
At present the only junior
college in Oregon is at Bend, the
Central Oregon college which
furnishes two years of college
education.
EXPLOSIVE PROBLEM

police hoped to get "an explo

day before it blows up in some
body's face. Burglars broke into
a magazine of the Ellis Hall and
Son Torpedo Co. and carried
off a 10-quart can of nitroglycerin.

American Motors
May Agree To CIO
Guaranteed Wage
Detroit (U.R) An American
Mortors Corp. spokesman has
indicated his firm may be willing
to agree to CIO United Auto
Workers guaranteed annual
wage demands unless an alter
nate solution to stabilize employ
ment can be found.
AMC industrial relations di
rector Edward L. Cushman said
his company felt providing work
ers with steady employment was
as important as making profits.
Won't Be Satisfied
"We will not be satisfied with
our record stability," he said,
"unless such a time as we are
able to provide regular and con
tinuous employment from the
time they (the workers) are hired
until they are retired."
Cushman, a member of a citi
zens' committee which worked
with the union in 1953 to help
plan the UAW's guaranteed an
nual wage program, was the
first to express management's
view on the controversial wage
issue since the union began its
talks with auto companies.
Seeking Agreement
He said his company hopes to
work out some arrangement witn
the union to steady the firm's
employment but did not say
whether the arrangement would
be a form of the GAW or an
alternate porposal.
Walter P. Reuther, CIO and
UAW president, has said tha
union would insist on some form
of the GAW from every auto
company but would consider
counter-proposals which accept
the principle of the annual wage.
Cushman also said he opposed
a "pattern settlement" negotiat
ed with other auto companies.
By UNITED PRESS
Millions more children eligible
today for immediate inoculations
of Salk anti-polio vaccine under
a decision to switch from a three
shot to a two-shot program.
But shipments of the cherry
red vaccine to mass inoculation
centers appeared to lag. Health
officials were doubtful about
how many children could receive
protection before the polio "sea
son" starts June 1.
The federal government, act
ing to meet the crisis under or
ders from President Eisenhower,
called an April 22 conference of
Medical, health and drug offic
ials. The experts will try to work
out plans for fair, speedy dis
tribution of the polio-killing vac
cine. Some communities had plan
ned to start the mass inoculation
of first and second graders to
day. But officials were already
postponing the target date in
some areas because they had re
ceived no definite word on when
pharmaceutical houses would
ship the vaccine. '
The National Foundation for
Infantile Paralysis announced
the switch from a three-shot to
a two-shot program late Thurs
day. Almost immediately state
health officials fell into line and
began preparing for a two-shot
program.
The change was recommended
by Dr. Jonas E. Salk, the man
who developed the history-making
vaccine. He said it would be
better to give two shots, followed
by a "booster" about seven
months later, rather than three
evenly-spaced inoculations.
Under the new two-shot sys
tem, the foundation turned into
commercial channels enough vac
cine to inoculate 4,500,000 more
children. It had already ordered
enough vaccine to take care of
9,000,000 youngsters.
Dr. Hart E. Van Riper, the
foundation's medical director,
had estimated there would be
enough vaccine to inoculate 30,
000,000 Americans by June 1.
Following Thursday's action, he
called on vaccine producers to
state how much they can produce
by July 1.
However, the major pharma
ceutical houses producing the
vaccine were keeping quiet
about how many inoculations
they can make possible before
hot weather ushers in the polio
season.
The nation's states and major
cities meanwhile waited pa
tiently, at least for the time
being, for the chance to start on
the biggest mass assault on dis
ease m medical history.
Butler Sees Good
Chance for Democrats
Washington U.R) Demo
cratic National Chairman Paul
M; Butfer told his party leaders
today they have a good chance
of winning the White House in
1956 "regardless of who is head
ing the Republican ticket."
He said Democratic prospects
are bright despite "the efforts of
high priced Republican propa
ganda experts to persuade the
press and public that Mr. Eisen
hower Is unbeatable."
Democrats meeting for a na
tional committee session to plan
their 1956 campaign were en
couraged by mid-term election
victories in which they recap
tured control of Congress and
won important state governor
ships.

Helser Witness
Says Stock Values
Top Investments
San Francisco (U.R) A de
fense witness has testified that
the market value of stocks ac
quired by J. Henry Helser &
Co. for its clients was $2,300,000
higher than the net amount in
vested. This testimony came yester
day from Charles F. Zurlinden,
chief statistician for the firm,
and first defense witness in a
hearing instituted by the Securi
ties and Exchange Commission.
Injunction Sought
The SEC is asking Federal
Judge Louis Goodman to issue
an injunction against the firm
on grounds it allegedly violated
certain fraud provisions of the
Securities act.
Zurlinden introduced into the
evidence an account performance
record to show Helser's hold
ings of Dec. 31, 1954.'
It showed that on that date,
Helser accounts had made invest
ments aggregating $41,168,258.
The accounts had a liquidating
value of $43,489,780, the record
showed.
Few Carried on Margin
Defense Attorney Robert E.
Bruns also established in ques
tioning Zurlinden that only 8.9
per cent of the securities in all
accounts were carried on margin
at the end of last year. On April
30, 1953, only 4.8 per cent of
the securities were on margin,
Zurlinden said.
Moreover, the witness said, at
no time in the years 1951
through 1954 did no equity in
client's accounts go below 46 per
cent, which is well above mini
mum requirements for member
firms of the New York Exchange.
Parly Label Seen Only
Political Difference
Beverly Hills, Calif. (U.R)
Gov. J. Bracken Lee of Utah
says the only difference between
Republicans and Democrats to
day is their party label.
Lee, a Republican, speaking to
150 members of the Beverly
Hills Men's club last night said,
"I opposed the New Deal philos
ophy of trying to spend our
selves rich. I condemned the
Democrats for their program and
see no reason why I should
change my opinion because we
are operating the same program
under a different banner."
Lee said unless one of the
parties changes its political phi
losophy a third party may be
come inevitable.

Sen. Phil Lowry Lauds Dalles
Newspaperman for Perseverance
Salem (U.R) Sen. Phil
Lowry ' (R-Medford) yesterday
paid high tribute to Henry Kane

to know if a bill could not be
drafted to enable a recount in
every precinct where votes were
cast for any candidate or meas
ure. Convinced of Merit
Sen. John P. Hounsell (R
Hood River) said it could be.
Sen. Warren Gill (R-Lebanon)
became convinced of the merit
of the idea and helped draft the
bill to put it into effect. Then
Sen. Hounsell introduced it.
Yesterday the measure was
approved by the Senate without
a single dissenting vote.
The measure, Senate bill 402,
provides that a candidate or any
officer of a political party may
file a demand requiring the sec
retary of state to direct that a
recount be made in every prec
inct in which votes wsre cast for
the particular public office for
which the candidate's name ap
peared on the ballot at the pri
mary or general election.
A registered voter may, under
the terms of the m asure, file a
demand requiring the secretary
of state to direct that a recount
be made in every precinct in
which votes were cast for any
measure voted on at a general
or special election.
Shows What Can Be Done
Sen. Lowry said: "This meas
ure just goes to show what a
single citizen can do through his

own initiative. Kane camped on
our committee tirelessly to see
we worked on the measure. He
made several trips to the Legis
lature in the interest of the bill.
Through his individual effort, he
demonstrated that a single citi
zen can start out with a good
idea, get it into bill form, and
get it passed, in an effort to im
prove government. It also shows
that our newspaper people are
on the ball."
