BffliciiHies off Young People
Traced to Sources by Speaker
For MU Guidance Meeting -
Trends and patterns of modern i
day living which cause problems i
among children and youth were
discussed by Mrs. Joy Hills Gub-
er, assistant superintendent of
the state department of educa
tion, at the second annual meet
ing of the Southern Oregon Child
Guidance Clinic association.
Members of the association,
meeting last night at St. Mark's
Guild hall, also elected officers
and heard reports. Mrs. Dunbar
Carpenter presided. The session
was preceded by a social hour.
Elected for three-year board
terms were Elliott Becken, Mrs.
Roland Holmes, Mrs. Dwight
Houghton, Mrs. Earl Lawson, all
Medford; Mrs. John Bohnert,
Central Point; Dr. Alva Graham,
Ashland and Mrs. W. H. Young,
Eagle Point.
Others Named
The Rev. Robert Greene, Pros
pect, was named to a one-year
term to complete that of the
Rev. A. R. Render, Prospect, who
has moved, and John Graff, Med
ford, was elected for a two-year
term to replace Mrs. John Bee
man. Mrs. Gubser said the chief
causes of problems among youth
are the changing patterns of liv
ing, and that the average per
son is unaware of these changes.
She listed the manner in which
citizens can now "move around"
over the entire nation, new pat
terns of discipline, the decline of
. the stabilizing influence of re
ligion, the amount of sex knowl
edge possessed by young people,
the new "age of permissiveness,"
the increased amount of time
spent away from home and the
changing standard of ethics in
this country.
Me Longer Deterrent
Elaborating on the lack of re
ligious influence, Mrs. Gubser
aid that in times past, young
people were deterred from
wrong-doing by the fear of going
to hell, and she added, "you
don't scare kids with that any
more they demand proof that
you know what you're talking
bout."
Speaking of the new age of
permissiveness, Mrs. Gubser
mentioned late hours, the matter
of clothes, parties and dates, and
aid parents seem uncertain as
to what their role if and are
often dominated by the young
people. She said parents are now
starting to "give one another
support," and cited the instance
of Portland parents holding a
' meeting to decide at what hours
young people should be required
to return home after social
events.
Working Women Cited
The increased standard of liv
ing in this nation, along with in
flation, have made it necessary
for more than one-third of the
nation's women to work outside
the home, she said. This condi
tion is not expected to improve,
but to worsen, she added.
Talking about the changing
standards of ethics, Mrs. Gubser
said "it's kind of hard to know
what is honest and what is dis
honest now," and added that
children wonder why slot ma
chanies are illegal and pari-mu
' tuel betting is not.
Mrs. Gubser also mentioned
the increasing importance of ma
terial possessions evident in this
nation. She said that materialism
of children and young people is
only a reflection of the attitudes
of their parents and the com
munity.
Contributing Factors
She listed poor homes, pov
erty, neglect by parents, poor
discipline, immorality, emotion
ally disturbed parents, lack of
religion and inadequate schools
as- factors contributing to delin
quency. On the other side of the
picture Mrs. Gubser listed good
homes, assurance to children that
they are wanted by the parents,
the spending of time with the
children, early discipline, relig
ious education, and a good en-

how to distinguish between sig

About 100 persons from all
legislators Report
(Do. decent Session)
At Chamber Meeting
Three Medford legislators
briefly reviewed their work on
committees at the recent session
of the state senate and house
before the Jackson county
Chamber of Commerce round
table in the Jackson hotel yes
terday. State Sen. Philip B. Lowry,
Reps. E. A. Littrell and E. H.
Mann, and Representative W. W.
Chadwick, Salem, were guests
at the luncheon.
Senator Lowry, a member of
the assessment and taxation
committee, told the group that
the cost of government opera
tion has increased from $14,000,
000 in the 1935-36 biennium to
more than $200,000,000 for the
present biennium. He pointed
out that looking for $62,000,000
was the committee's "toughest
job."
Other Committees
Other committees on which
Senator Lowry served during
the legislature included elec
tions and privileges, judiciary
and roads and highways. The
only major legislation to come
out of the judiciary committee,
he said, was the administrative
procedures act, which sets a
standard form of procedure.
representative L,mreii, vice-
chairman of the house highways
committee, said another survey
may be made this summer on
a proposed Medford-Klamath-Falls
highway. Senator Lowry
pointed out that one survey has
been made, but the state high
way commission has given it no
serious consideration "because
it is relatively low. on the pri
ority list."
Senator Lowry said the senate
roads and highways committee
would reconsider a survey by
a new team on the proposed
route. Rep. Littrell pointed out
that the committees cannot place
recommended highways on the
priority list, which is made up
by the highway commission.
Rep. Littrell, a member of
commerce and utilities and la
bor and industries committees
as well as roads, said the unem
ployment bill, which was "re
built" on the floor of the house,
was the toughest bill before the
committee. The bill later passed
the house.
List of Illnesses
Climbs to 123 in Week
The number of communicable
diseases reported in Jackson
county last week increased to
123, with 68 cases of measles

parts of Jackson county and
from Klamath Falls attended the
meeting. Dr. John Waterman of
the state board of health intro
duced the speaker. Also present
were Mrs. Waterman and Ethel
G. Reuter, M.D., Yamhill county
health director.
The Ashland High school or
chestra, directed by Bernard
Windt, provided music.
Rep. Mann said the major bill
to come out of committees on
which he served was the re
count law, which makes it pos
sible for vote recounting fol
lowing elections. Rep. Mann was
chairman of the elections and
reapportionment committee, and
was a member of the forestry
and mining, medical affairs, and
social welfare committees.
No Bills
The social welfare committee,
he said, met just once, but not
a single bill was introduced or
submitted to the committee,
Bills in the other committees,
he said, were generally correc
tive measures to strengthen pres
ent laws.
Rep. Mann said he though the
legislature tms session dia a
good job," and added that he
"would like to have the sales
tax go to the people." He point
ed out there are things he does
not like about the bill, but "I
think it should have gone to the
people.
The legislators were invited
to attend the Chamber round
table when possible to keep the
people of Medford informed of
legislative action.
