Baked without shortening Two kinds: LIGHT and DARK President Eisenhower's new foreign policy for the Middle East, federal aid to education and termination of federal con trol for the Klamath Indians were discussed by Congress woman Edith Green..at a luncli eon given in her honor by Jack son county Democrats yesterday noon at the Medford hotel. Mrs. Green said that the legislation concerning the Klamath Indians was probably the most important problem facing Oregon at this time since it involved grave changes in the lives of more than 2.000 persons and would have far-reaching effects in the eco nomic welfare of the area. Representative Green said she voted against the resolution which would give President Ei senhower special powers in de termining policies and action in the Middle East because she be lieved the president already has sufficient power to handle any situation which might arise. Passage of the resolution would set a dangerous precedent and actually weaken the power of the executive since he might then have to ask for special legis lation to handle comparable situations in the future, she stressed. She criticized the rules committee for having limited de bate on this to five hours. While the resolution is being referred to as a "foreign policy" Mrs. Green said actually it is not a ''policy" since no basic issues are being outlined. Continuing this discussion, the congress woman said that while in prin ciple she supported aid to foreign countries, she believed such aid should be scrutinized thoroughly to see that it actually aided the people of the nations involved and did not perpetuate condi tions which are "sowing the seeds of communism." Mrs. Green discussed House Bill I, which provides federal aid to build schools, predicting that the bill would be passed. Speak ing of the Powell amendment, which would prevent districts which practice segregation from receiving federal aid, Mrs. Green said she had supported it and said that in many ways "the amendment is more important than the bill." .The speaker emphatically de nied Republican campaign state ments to the effect that the Democrats had defeated the school bill last session, and sup ported her contention with fig ures on the voting. Mrs. Green said she sometimes wondered about the sense of val ues of Americans who spend bil lions each year on tobacco, alco holic beverages, cosmetics, mov ies and even chewing gum, but object to the cost of schools. Reviewing the Klamath In dian termination problem, Mrs. Green said that great harm to the Indians may result from too hasty ending of federal controls. "Why rush into termination," she asked, and added that "sad as it may be, the truth of the matter is that wherever termi nation is being speeded, there is valuable property belonging to the Indians which the white men want." Mrs. Green declared that turn ing over of the valuable forested land to the Indians may mean its speedy sale piecemeal to those who will cut the timber for immediate sale regardless of consequences. Those interested in conservation and in stabiliz ing the economy of the area wish to defer termination until some plan can be worked out whereby either the federal government, the state of Oregon or the In dians themselves can harvest the timber in an orderly, sustained yield fashion, she said. Mrs. Green last year introduced what she called a "stop gap" measure which would defer termination nine months beyond the contem plated date, but no action . on the bill was taken before congress adjourned. Mrs. Green further pointed out that the termination legisla tion makes no provision for the miners on the Klamath reserva tion, although about half of the Indian population is engaged in j mining, and added that some of ; the Indians are not competent to J handle their business affairs. Ia j the case of the Choctaws, she j said, as much as 53 per cent of the money due some Indians was "swallowed up" by the fees of attorneys supposedly helping them. Speaking of the budget pre sented to congress by the presi dent. Mrs. Green stated that by throwing the responsibility of cutting the budget on the shoul ders of congressmen, the Demo crats would be accused of failing to follow the president's wishes if they did not cut it, and would be accused of being spendthrifts if they allowed it to stand. Larry Sheehan, county Demo cratic chairman, presided. Ed ward C. Kelly presented Mrs. Green a pair of myrtlewood book ends as a. gift from party members. Also introduced were District Attorney Thomas Reeder; Mrs. Kelly, a former county chairman; Mrs. Donna Straus, Robert Boyer, state Dem ocratic chairman; County Treas urer Karl Janouch and Mrs. Janouch, Judge Rawles Moore and County Commissioner Ralph James.
