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.

Dr. Elmo Stevenson, president
of Southern Oregon college,
serving as moderator. 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.
