EIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL. T1UBTJKE Friday. October 13. 1958 Morse, McKay Meet on Platform; Say Each Other Lacks Integrity Portland (U.R) Sen. Wayne Morse and his November oppo nent, Douglas McKay met on the same platform for the first time in the campaign yesterday. The two candidates took 10 minute turn telling the annual candidate's day of the Portland Women's forum why he should be the man Oregon sends to Washington. , The meeting started out cor dially but did generate a few sparks as it progressed. The two opened the meeting by shaking hands. They closed it by each ELECT A Responsible District Attorney charging the other with a lack of "political integrity." McKay charged that "no sena tor has done more to endanger world peace" than has Sen. Morse, and added that the voting record of his opponent is "al most invariably wrong on issues involving peace or war." Speech Tossed Aside Morse countered with a state ment asserting that he was in agreement with many of Presi dent Eisenhower's policies but blasting what he called "the re actionary policies of McKay as governor and as secretary of the interior." McKay centered his case on two issues: World peace and po litical integrity. He declared that Morse declared on the floor of the Senate during a period of extreme world tension that Pres ident Eisenhower was "wholly lacking in political morality," and had later described the pres ident as the "most dangerous man who will ever have been in the White House." Morse tossed out a prepared speech he had for the meeting and instead declared that his opponent had disqualified him self to run for the Senate. Telegram Cited Morse said he bad received a telegram from McKay in 1952 asking that he vote to override President Truman's veto of the tidelands bill. Morse said the telegram went on to ask him "to please refrain, from voting" if he could not vote in accordance with McKay's wishes. He charged that the telegram "disqualified McKay as a judge of political morality." Nearly 300 persons jammed into the room to hear the two candidates and another 50 stood in the hallway unable to get inside. Milwaukee Braves Keep Fishermen Off Lakes Milwaukee (U.R) The Wis consin Conservation Depart ment figures the Milwaukee Braves keeps thousands of Mil waukee County fishermen off the lakes and streams. In 1952, there were 120,440 resident fishing licenses sold in Milwaukee County. The next year, when the Braves moved to Milwaukee, the number drop ped to 113,204. The number fell to 110,201 in 1954 and 103,913 in 1955. As Warden R. J. Lake puts it, "Fishing pressure is light when the Braves are in town." PILING PREDICTION Berkeley, Calif. (U.R! The University of California has come up with a method of pre dicting how far pilings will in clay soils. This new system, us ing a rod with four vanes on it, could eliminate costly and inac curate guesswork now practiced by engineers. The current meth od is merely to sink a pile into the ground and put various loads on it to see how far it will sink. Stevenson Makes New Effort To Tie McCarthy With Eisenhower THOMAS J.

Hear TOM REEDER 5:15 Tonight - KYJC Pd. Political ad. With Stevenson in Kentucky (U.R) Adlai E. Stevenson made a new effort today to tie Sen. Jos eph R. McCarthy (R-Wis.), firm ly to President Eisenhower. He also charged that Republi cans in Congress value Mr. Eis enhower as a candidate, but ig nore him as a leader. He said in a speech prepared for delivery at Lexington that return of the Republicans to na tional and congressional control would restore McCarthy to chair manship of the Government Op erations committee of the Sen ate. McCarthy had occupied that post when he conducted his con troversial hearings on Commun ist infiltration into the govern ment. Two State Welcome The two-stop Kentucky swing was one of the more successful days of the Democratic presiden tial nominee's campaign. He was also received enthusiastically in Ohio, ending up at Youngstown where he was welcomed by one of the largest night turnouts since the nominating conven tion. The Democratic candidate did not single out McCarthy as the only undesirable prospect from the Democratic point of view in the event of a Republican vic tory. "The President is not only campaigning for his team," Stev enson said, "he is campaigning for a Republican Congress." Lisle Probable Chairmen Stevenson said this would mean the restoration of McCar thy as a Senate committee chair man; the return of Sen. William Jenner of Indiana as chairman of the Judiciary subcommittee on Internal Security; Sen.

(Fay) Bristol, president of the Oregon Mining associa tion and a member of the Board of Governors of the American Mining congress, dis cussed the Al Sarena mining case last night at a meeting of the Southern Oregon Conserva tion and Tree Farm association at the Jackson hotel. Bristol said he first became familiar with the Al Sarena mine in the 1930s when he was a guest there. In 1937, he said, there were 10 claims of mine operating. By 1940 the mine had a capa city of 100 tons of ore a day, he added. A mine with that ca pacity today, according to Bris tol, would be a $250,000 invest ment. When President Eisenhower took office in 1953, he stated, he found there was a suit filed in federal court against the gov ernment for malfeasance in of fice for failure to issue mining patents to the Al Sarena mine. Only Debate The only debate about the mine, according to Bristol, was whether there was mineral in various claims of the mine. He said mining engineers were ap pointed to dig out and inspect samples of ore. In location claims inspected, ore was found in the samples, he said. In the opinion of one engin eer, Bristol said, the mine had a great volume of ore and would have a low operating cost. Then, all of a sudden, Bristol declared, the mine was a "political football" and "cer tain poiticians were demanding the mining laws be changed." . "Although these politicians never mentioned it," he stated, Three Ferries Still in Operation On Lower Willamette River Motorlog Visits All Three Craft In One-Day Trip The felleirins ! eoedee aetioe ef s motoring appear ing in the Northwest Roto gimvwre Magazine of The Snn 4a.y Oregonian. It ia one of M aeneai seriea aponaored joint ly r the Oregon State Motor aaaociatioo aad Tho Orego- Travelers in early-day Oregon were seldom able to say: "We'll cross that bridge when we come to it." There just weren't very many bridges. But when a road came to a river usually the Willamette it had to get to the other side. And so a good many pioneer entrepreneurs began to shuttle this traffic by ferryboat From the yellowing archives of the Marion county court, it is apparent that that body de voted much of its time in the 1850s to issuing and renewing permits to operate ferries across the Willamette and its tribu taries. The business was equally flourishing in other counties. Relics of that day are few indeed in these times. Boones ferry at Wilsonville, one of the best known into recent years, gave place two years ago to the new high bridge carrying the Baldock freeway over the Willamette. Only survivors on the Wil lamette today are the ferries at Canby, Wheatland and Buena Vista. They were a nostalgic destination for a recent motor log in the Oregon State Motor association's familiar white Ford. With its combination of bu colic valley scenes and leisurely, if short in distance, voyages across the river, it is an ideal Sunday outing for an expansive autumn afternoon. Closest to Portland and easi est of access is the Canby ferry, operated by Clackamas county across the Willamette three miles north of the town that supplies its name. To get there, the AAA Ford traveled south from downtown Portland along the river bank to Oswego. Just south of the Oswego business district, turn right on McVey avenue at the public swimming facility and follow the signs for Stafford, through the intersection called Wankers corner to Mountain road and the Canby ferry signs. For about 11 miles from Os wego, it's drive along paved, but not expressway-type, roads through hilly woods and farm country, some of the most gorgeous in Oregon and in its prime during the fall. Suddenly the road jogs abruptly to the left, heads steeply downhill and stops at the Willamette's edge. Here the all-steel ferry M. J. Ie slipped silently across the river with the white car as its cargo. Built in Milwaukie in 1951. it is named for the grand son of Philander Lee, on whose sriS irtTtor-'ir'-' rf-- inif-ti unhmtTitfTttfmmnti-iitmm-'mtM White AAA car drives aboard Canby ferry donation land claim Canby was built. The grandson is remembered in Canby as Pacific Northwest champion bicyclist during the 1890s and as the promoter of the town's first bus line and first electric power system. The good ship M. J. Lee is in the tradition of a service be gun in 1916 by the city of Can- by and later turned over to Clackamas county. Its operation hasn't been exactly continuous since that time, because in 1945 January flood carried the original ferry wildly down stream and deposited it rudely on the rocks. It was six years then before the county was persuaded by Canby to resume the service. The Willamette crossing is a particular favorite of the Canby community, because, for one thing, it's 2M miles and many minutes closer to Portland via the ferry and Oswego than through Oregon City. - It s also important to Canby s economy, for during Harvest season it trundles many a truck load of grain across the Wil lamette en route to the capa cious Canby elevators. Like all the Willamette's remaining ferries, the M. J. Lee is free. Hours of operation are 6 a. m. to 10 p. m. daily. When the Willamette is full to the bnmy it s likely that ferry service will have to be suspended. After the M. J. Lee had de livered the white motorlog car on the Canby shore of the Wil lamette, at a slip beside the Canby Yacht club moorings where pleasure craft bobbed, the car soon turned south on U. S. 99-E, the Pacific highway. and headed for Salem. 1 PORTLAMO" b,,i..a J.r , Salew f eVi- vitfw Jaunt to three ferries easy day's drive from valley towns To reach the Buena Vista ferry, about 15 miles south of Oregon's capital, take a right turn off U. S. 99 a short dis tance south of Salem and follow signs pointing to Buena Vista. The road dips and coils through the picturesque Ankeny hills, emerges at an eminence offer ing a spectacular panorama of the Willamette valley and then winds down onto the flatlands. Here is the center of Oregon's mint industry. The $20,000 vessel, operated jointly by. Marion and Polk counties, is a steel barge with wooden cabin, built in Portland five years ago to replace a venerable wooden craft. It shut tles across the river rily from 6:30 a. m. to 6:50 p. m. and on Sundays and holidays from 9 a. m. to 4:50 p. m. There's nothing at Buena Vista now but a scatter of houses, a grocery store and gas station. Howard McKinley Coming's "Willamette Landings' recalls other glories of Buena Vista, which in 1856 was so impressed by its stature that it was one of the many settlements trying to become capital of Oregon. It was an important shipping point as long as Willamette riverboating prospered, and pot tery from a Buena Vista kiln went to buyers all over the Pacific Northwest In 1873 it even manufactured the pipe for Portland's Stark street sewer. Buena Vista ha'd all the trap pings of a bustling business center, including a hotel. Roughly midway between Buena Vista and Canby is the Wheatland ferry, a joint ven ture of Marion and Yamhill counties. It crosses Mission bottom, fertile as it is leve.1, and comes to a watery halt at a ferry crossing dating back to 1843. The boat in service then was caulked with a bushel or two of religious literature left in the old buildings of the first Methodist mission, which was nearby. Wheatland, too, retains noth ing of the bustle or. for that matter, the buildings which once gave it importance in the Willamette valley. Nothing much remains but the ferry, which still traverses the river daily from 6 a. m. to 9: 45 p. rru and on Sundays from 9 a. m. to 8:45 p. m. WRONG ROCHESTER Rochester, N. Y. (U.PJ Dr. ; Hans Roth, a Swiss physician ! visiting this country, got a stir prise Thursday when he asked directions to the Mayo Clinic. He was told he was 1,500 miles j off his mark. The world-famed clinic is in Rochester, Minn. Gardening is one of the top hobbies in the United States with nearly S700 million being spent on it annually. SHOP Where Your FOOD DOLLARS . Have More ; VALUE! OK MARKET 1202 North Riverside OPEN EVERY J NIGHT TIL MIDNIGHT "the mining laws have been changed." According to previous laws, he said, the forest service regarded all staked areas' as mining land, so there would be. a development of minerals. Present Authority Bristol stated the forest serv ice now has the authority to verify any mining claim or rule and claim invalid upon publica tion of an obscure notice, which could be hundreds of miles away from where the mine is located. "Unless you can now prove you have a good mine," he said, "the forest service has the right" to enter the mining area, cut timber, and make access roads. He pointed out that before the secretary of interior can now issue a mining patent, he must have a statement from the for est service saying that they will not protest the mine. State Representative - E. A. (Al) Littrell pointed out the ar guments for and against the seven state measures that will appear on the Nov. 6 general election ballot. Most Controversial Most controversial of the measures, he said, is proposi tion I. This measure proposes to add an emergency clause to tax bills which will put the bill into immediate effect so revenue can be obtained from the bill before an election is held for the ap proval of Oregon voters, Littreil explained. The measure also proposes that bills from voter initiatives will have to wait 18 months un til an election is held, he said. The tax w i 1 1 go into effect after it is approved. Littrell stated that the present law puts a "financial straight jacke" on legislatures making it impos sible for them to fullfill an ade quate tax bill. Arguments against the meas ure, he pointed out, state that it would be the opening wedge in getting a sales tax and that it would be harmful to the ref erendum. L. L. (Doc) Simpson, secretary-manager and forester of the association, pointed out that there were 202 fires reported in southern Oregon this year, of which 125 were caused by lightning, 77 by all other causes and 11 were caused by logging operators.. Total acres burned were 550, he added. Judge Vanderberg Visits in Medford Seeking Support Circuit Judge David R. Van denberg, Klamath Falls, was a Medford visitor yesterday, seek ing support in his campaign for the Write-in election as supreme court justice, position No. 1, in the Nov. 6 general election. He is seeking the position now held by Justice William McAllster, former Medford at torney, who was appointed to the position by Gov. Elmo Smith recently, after the death of Justice Earl C. Latourette, who was a candidate for reelection. McAllister himself is a write in candidate for the non-partisan position. Several other in dividuals throughout the state have also indicated they would ask write-in votes. Calls on Friends Judge Vandenberg made calls on a number of friends and sup porters here yesterday, and was introduced last night at a Dem ocratic gathering at the Esquire theater. He is a registered Re publican. The Klamath Falls jurist bases his campaign on the fact that he has had 16 years judicial ex perience in the circuit courts of Oregon. He was elected judge of the 13th judicial district (Klam ath county) in 1940, after 15 years of private practice. Since his election, he has served as judge continuously, presiding in various circuit courts through out the state. He has served Klamath county as judge longer than any other man. He has the endorsement of the Klamath County Bar associa tion, and committees both in Portland and Klamath Falls are working in his behalf. He has lived in Klamath Falls since 1925, is married and is the father of six children.

Throughout the centuries, in almost every epoch, the residen tial, social, political, artistic and religious centers of the city have shifted from one zone to an other. Today, as in the past, the cen ters are on the move. The shifting and expansion of the past 50 years have been par ticularly marked within the lim its of the ancient walls and be yond them into the surround ing countryside. At the turn of the century, the so-called "Humbertine' quar ters sprang up around the center in a broad arch sweeping from the Basilica of San Giovanni northwards over the site of the present central railroad station, the Esquiline Hill and the Mo mentana and Salaria districts. Change of Concept Suburban in 1900, these areas now are central, and the great er part of the population live here. Then, in the early decades of the century, there was a change in the concept of expansion and urban planning. New buildings were designed as part of many "garden cities" such as those now found in the Monte Sacro quarter near the Aniene river, which runs into the Tiber north of the city, and the Monte Verde quarter on the southern slopes of the Gianiculum Hill, below the Vatican. Urban planning now uses this principle of "breathing . space," incorporating small villas with parks and gardens and wide roads between. So constructed were the Aventine, Parioli ( pop ular with foreign residents) and other quarters of the city. Now a new residential quar ter is growing up between the old center of Rome and the sea at Ostia, around the monument al buildings of. the EUR (Uni versal Exhibition of Rome) fairgrounds. Construction was begun here by Mussolini, who planned a great international fair here un til World War II interrupted his grandiose schemes. Catholics Building Large Center at Boston Boston (U.R) Plans are un derway for the largest Marian Catholic center in the Ameri cas, to be built at Orient Heights here. The religious center already is attracting 100,000 visitors a year because of a 37-foot statue of the Madonna. Eventually this huge statue will be backed by a 100-foot pylon of marble and will be - flanked by porticos. Nearby will be a square able to accommodate 40,000 persons for Catholic congresses.
