Norblad Sees Slim Chance of Rising Higher in House By A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Correspondent . Washington Rep. Walter Nor blad (R-Ore.) estimates that it would take him "almost a life time" to rise substantia 1 1 y any higher in the ranks of the House of R e p r esenta tives. This was his answer to the R e p u b lican objection voic- a. Robt. imitk efl by Ore gon's Republican national com mitteewoman, Mrs. Marshall Cornett, to Norblad's decision to abandon his congressional seat and run for governor. Norblad has been Oregon's first district congressman for 10 years. Mrs. Cornett argued that the party and the state could ill afford to lose his services in Congress, inasmuch as he had gained a decade's seniority. Norblad is now sixth ranking Republican on the House Armed Services committee, but he fig ures he would have to stay in Congress for possibly two or three times as long to reach the top as committee chairman. "Dewey- Short, the ranking Republican oh our committee, has been in Congress 27 years," observed Norblad. "Les Arends of Illinois, second ranking man on our side, has been here 21 years. And Carl Vinson, chair man of" the committee, has been j here 42 years." I Sees Liitle Prospect i In short, Norblad said he saw I little prospect of climbing much j higher very soon within the ' House itself. A rundown of the length of service of the various House ; committee chairmen shows- that most have served at least a quar ter of a century. They include Jere Cooper of Ways and Means, 27 years; Emmanuel Cellar of Judiciary, 33 years; Clarence Cannon of Appropriations, 33 years. Top Republicans are Reed of (Ways and Means, 37 years; Ta ber of Appropriations, 23 years; Rogers of Veterans, 31 years; : Hope of Agriculture, 30 years. i Curtice Says 6M Growth To Continue Los Angeles (U.R) The presi dent of General Motors, the world's largest corporation, ex pects the huge auto manufac turer to get even bigger in keep ing pace with an expanding American economy.

March 2, 195S MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL irilBUNt br.V&W Artificial Heart Valve Made From Plastic Substance San Francisco U.R) Two University of California medical scientists have discovered how to make a life-saving artificial heart valve out of the same ma terial used in the common plas tic kitchen sponge. The technique may soon do much to eliminate death from the ravages of "rheumatic fever and congenital deformity in new born infants, they said. The scientists, Drs. Edwin J. Wylie and B&nson B. Roe, de scribed their experiments at a news conference here. The valve, designed by U.C. Engineer David Moore, is made from polyvinyl alcohol the same material the householder commonly uses to swab the sink or wash the family car. The doctors said that so far the valve has been used only on dogs, but the success of the ex periments warrants the. assump tion that its use on humans may not be far off. Dr. Roe explained that in a healthy human, the pulsation of the heart forces blood up into the arota with' each beat, open ing a three-leafed valve. Between out pu t beats, the valve prevents the blood from returning to the heart. But in the aftermath of rheu matic fever or in the case of a cogenital deformity, this natural valve is often impaired, causing improper heart function and eventually death. In his animal experiments, Dr. Roe has managed to place his artificial valve at the entrance to the arota without shutting off the total blood supply from the heart during the operation a condition which would cause critical brain damage or death within minutes. The scientist declined to re veal his ingenious surgical meth od until after he has described it in a recognized surgical jour nal, .o Confederate Bombing Of Chicago Scheduled Memphis, Tenn. (U.R) Radio disc jockey Ollen English, an advocate of the South's segrega tion pattern, flies to Chicago to day to drop 25,000 miniature Confederate battle flags on the city if the weather permits.
