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.

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

He also said Republican re

Al Sarena Mines Are
Discussed at Meeting
F. I. (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

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.

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.

"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.

Eternal City Said
Constantly on Move
In Last 2000 Years
Rome (U.R) Rome, the Eter
nal City, is also a city that has
been almost constantly on the
move these 2',000 years or more.
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.
The chimney swift li the only
bird known tht can beat its

faculty enabling it to be the
