Stocks Move Narrowly On Reduced Turnover New 'York (U.R) Stocks moved narrowly on reduced turnover today. Industrials encountered some turbulence as they moved around the 500-level in their average. Rails tried to take the lead but just couldn't get the wheels rolling. A three-point drop in Peoples Gas brought utilities down after their aver age had touched a 26-year high. A handful of issues made good gains of two points or more. A few others had wide losses. The mair list held in a narrow range with changes irregular.

Speaking were Mark Smith, Portland, member of the social action committee of Oregon Council of Churches; Mrs. Beatrice Ste vens, Portland, secretary of Ore gon Federation of Teachers; Miss Mildred Wharton, Port land, president of Oregon Edu cation association, and Mrs. Bosworth. Mrs. Hazel Robertson spoke for a dinner Saturday evening on "The Changeless Middle East Changes." Mrs. Robertson has spent much time in various Mid dle East coutries the past six years helping with communica tions projects under a grant from, the Ford Foundation. Social Revolution Mrs. Robertson said that the Middle East countries are in the midst of a social revolution the extent of which is little realized by most westerners, but that education of "way of thinking" in these nations are being great ly influenced by the west. She said "there will be no peace un til the mood of the area changes." The speaker added added that the Arab nations need to turn- their thoughts and actions to internal problems and that if they could be persuaded to spend their money and ener gy in attempting to solve their own problems, and "quit flog ging the dead horse of colonial ism" they would have no time left to ; fight with Israel or "dally"-, with Russia. . Shi. said that Arab problems "transverse old 'national boun daries" and that the Israeli Arab dispute is largely emo tional. Mrs. Robertson said re cent reports were to the effect that the United States would attempt to aid the Arab leader ship by working towards estab lishment of a regional bank. Not Dictator The speaker declared Nasser is not at heart a dictator, but that his hand has been forced by the tide of international events. She indicated that while the United' States has made a number of blunders in dealing with the Middle East problem, in some instances this govern ment had also been more or less foreed into undesirable posi tions. Mrs. Robertson said the Aswan dam project was already "bogged down" before Secre tary Dulles' decision to with draw support. ' Mrs. Robertson said she has faith that the Arabs will solve their problems as this "widest and quietest social revolution of all time" progress; that edu cation will be improved and their philosophy will change. She closed by saying that these changes for the better will come through "education and agricul ture and not through any poli tical ideology." The speaker brought two educational films made in the Middle East which were shown, one instructing the natives how to control the house fly and another on the water problem for the area. She was introduced by Dr. Capper-Johnson. .. George Rode, president of the Medford UN chapter, presided. HOLLY LAST 4 PAYS ma MGM's comedy cyclone!
