Pay Increases by
State Advocated
Salem :u.R) Salary increases
of from $10 to $12 a month for
state employees making less
than $200 a month were advo
cated here today by Leo Butts,
AFL-CIO public employees coun
sel, at a meeting of the State
Civil Service Commission.
The commission met to con
sider a staff report on salary
adjustments, particularly in cases
where emergencies existed.
Butts objected to the report
on grounds it recommended
nothing for the lowest paid state
workers who start at $166 a
month. He claimed it also failed
to properly evaluate some job
requirements or make adequate
provisions to reduce employee
turnover.
Butts also protested action of
the state emergency board which
recently earmarked $106,000 of
various state departments' sav
ings for academic salary in
creases urged by the board of
higher education.

Praise for Morse's
Convention Speech
Comes From All Sides
By
SEN. RICHARD NEUBERGER
Washington, D. C. (Special)
Many readers of this report, I
am sure, heard Senator Morse's
inspiring remarks about the need
for schools for America's chil
dren, and about his legislative,
battles toward this goal, in his
address to the Democratic na
tional convention in Chicago.
When Oregon marched down
the convention aisle in tribute
to the appearance of our state's
senior Senator, we suddenly
found ourselves joined enthusi
astically by the standards of
California, Washington, Idaho,
West Virginia and a whole host
of other states. This spontaneous
cooperation is a measure of the
way Wayne Morse is regarded
throughout the nation.
Sell Morse Buttons
Three Oregon Young Demo
crats found themselves doing a
landoffice business when they
set up an orange crate from
which to sell Wayne Morse but
tons for $1 each in the lobby of
a great hotel. They soon were out
of supply. Everybody wanted to
know how he or she could help
McKay's Change in
Stand on Education
Hit by Neuberger
By
SEN. RICHARD NEUBERGER
Washington, D. C. (Special)
One of the accomplishments
Senator Morse stem the ava
lanche of big - business funds
being cascaded down upon him.
The Senator's speech, which
stressed education, ethics in gov
ernment and conservation of na
tural resources, brought favor
able comments from all sources.
For example, the editor of Harp
er's Magazine called me at eight
the next morning to exclaim,
"Wasn't that a morvelous and in
spiring performance by your col
league?" Such commentators as
H. V. Kaltenborn and Pauline
Frederick were also full of ap
proval. And the next morning the
Senate Majority Leader, Lyndon
Johnson, told a breakfast crowd:
"Oregon is our key state in this
election. We are proud of Wayne
Morse and we know that Ameri
ca wants him to stay in the U. S.
Senate!"
Indeed, I left Chicago with the
confidenct feeling that Oregon's
senior Senator could well be
nominated for even higher office
when the . Democratic Party
meets again, four years from
now. '
with which we were most
pleased in this session of Con
gress was authorization of the
$19,800,000 harbor improvement
project at Yaquina Bay. By deep
ening the entrance and naviga
tion channels, this project would
have made Toledo and Newport
much more accessible to ocean
shipping and would have been
of vast economic benefit to the
whole surrounding area of the
Oregon coast.
Naturally, therefore, we were
extremely disappointed when
our hard and successful efforts
in the Senate to authorize this
important development were un
done by President Eisenhower's
veto of the omnibus public works
bill which included Yaquina
Bay.
The basic theme of the Re
publican campaign in Oregon
this year is that it was unethical
and immoral for Senator Wayne
Morse to change his mind about
political parties, when he found
it-was no longer possible to fight
effectively for progressive and
liberal policies in the GOP in
the Senate.
Cites McKay's Stand
On Aug. 7, ex-Secretary Mc
Kay spoke at Monmouth, seat of
Oregon College of Education. He
came out flatly and unequivo
cally for federal aid to educa
tion. This is the same McKay who
stumped Oregon in 1954 for
Senator Cordon, leading Senate
foe of the Hill "oil-for-schools"
amendment and of any Federal
aid to education. This is the same
McKay who is touring now in
tandem with Phil Hitchcock, the
man who challenged my stand
favoring Federal aid to education
before so many school groups
two years ago. Before one such
group, when debating with me,
Mr. Hitchcock warned that Fed
eral aid to education could be
"trading our birthright for a
mess of pottage . . ."
This is also the same McKay
who stood on the sidelines when
Wayne Morse was pioneering on
the school-aidi frontier, often
risking contumely and criticism
to urge Federal funds for school
construction.
But, evidently, it's only wrong
when Senator Morse changes
his mind. Everybody else has
carte blanche to do so!

Housing Needed
For Five Teachers
Medford school officials are
still seeking housing accommo
dations for five teachers having
families of three to five chil
dren. A particular need has been ex
pressed for moderately priced
three and four bedroom houses
either in the city or in suburban
areas.
School officials said response
for earlier requests for housing
has been good and several in
structors have been accommo
dated with apartments and two
bedroom homes.
