Your International Farm Youth Exchange program is an effective demonstration of the sincerity of this vision. As you help promote undersanding and friendship with youth of other lands, you cultivate a strong stand of peace and free dom." Oregonians have participated in this International Farm Youth Exchange Program since 1951, when Glenn Klein, now Jackson county 4-H club agent, the state's first delegate, went to New Zea land. Since then 20 young rural people from Oregon have gone to 20 different countries in Europe, South America, South Pacific and the Middle East. Dur ing these six years, Oregon farm families have been host to 50 young people from countries in North Africa. Europe, Near East, Far East. Middle East, and South America. Exchange. Visit Jackson county families have been hosts to exchangees from New Zealand, Norway, and Bur ma. In 1955, Mr. and Mrs. Don Minear of Medford and Mr. and Mrs. John Ousterhout of Eagle Point welcomed exchangees from Burma. The same year Mr. and Mrs. Victor Birdseye were the host family for a young man from New Zealand. In 1954 a Norwegian girl spent some time with the Birdseye family. Apply Now The young people live, work and play with the families. They are not looked upon as hired hands nor as guests, but rather as adopted sons and daughters. Oregon will be visited by 15 young "grass roots ambassadors" between May and November of 1957. They will come from Ne pal, Pakistan, India, Latin Amer ica, the Far East and Europe. Any family wishing to serve as a host family for an exchangee may contact his county exten sion agent at the courthouse. All host family applications must be received by April 1, it has been pointed out. Four young people from Ore gon are now preparing to leave the United States on the 1957 exchange program.

Lined up on one side are large numbers of individual motorists and nature lovers. Arrayed against them are advertising companies, organized sign paint ers and others who feel their jobs are at stake. The issue: Should Congress enact legislation designed to keep billboards and adversiting signs from springing up along the new federal system of in terstate highways now under construction? Construction Started The 41,000-mile network of highways will be built over the next 13 years, much of it on new locations from funds raised by gasoline and other taxes lev ied on motorists and truckers. Construction work already has started. Congressmen sponsoring legis lation to control billboards re ported today that "long suffering motorists" and members of garden clubs from all over the country have written in to com mend their anti-billboard move. But the congressmen are get ting brickbats from sign paint ers, carpenters, advertising ex ecutives and some motel and hotel owners. So far the administration has taken no stand. It won a reprieve when Senate hearings on the legislation scheduled to start this week, were postponed by debate over the Middle East resoluton. 'Some Kind of Crank' Rep. Robert Hale (R-Me.), sponsor of one of five bills in troduced in the House, said op ponents seem to feel that '" a person who doesn't like to see a mountain or a stream or even a field blotted out by a billboard Chain of Prayer Set By Salvation Army Speaker at the Annual Chain of Prayer services Friday from 11 a.m. until 12 noon will be Brigadier James Fookes of the Salvation Army, Portland. Services during the day start ing at 8 a.m.- and continuing through 6 p.m. will be held by various Medford churches in the St. Mark's Episcopal church chapel.

March 7. 1957 is a faddist or some kind of crank." Hale described as "typical" a letter he received last week from Secretary-treasurer Bruce C. Mather of a local AFL Sign Painters Union in Denver. Mather accused Hale and Sen. Richard L. Neuberger (D-Ore.), sponsor of the Senate bill, of being "faddist aesthetics" who would destroy sign painters' jobs just to "satisfy the fancies of a whimsical few." Court Photograph Demonstrates Lack Of Interference Cleveland U.R) The Cleve land Press published a photo graph Wednesday which it said "was taken to demonstrate that courtroom pictures can be taken . . . without interfering with the court." The. four-column picture was taken in the court room of Chief Justice Sam H. Silbert of Cuya hoga County Common Pleas Court. Press Photographer Glenn Zahn took the shot with a high speed lens camera with silent shutter under normal illumina tion while holding the camera on his lap. Camera Not Seen "No one in the courtroom saw the camera," Zohn said, "not even the man seated next to me." Silbert said he did not know when the picture was taken or that Zahn had carried a camera into the room. The Press, a Scrips-Howard paper, has led opposition against Canon 35 of the Code of Judicial Ethics dealing with courtroom photography. The interpretation of the rule varies from judge to judge. The newspaper said the pic ture was the first such shot taken by one of its photograph ers of a trial scene since Judge Joseph H. Silbert invoked con tempt of court action against the Press in September, 1952.
