14 MAIL TRIBUNE, M.dford, Oregon, Thursday, April 3, 1998 Liberal Policies Favored by Most Oregon ians Voting in Decisions Corvallis Liberal policies) Only 2 per cent of Oregon in world trade in line with administration-backed legisla tion now before Congress are favored by most Oregonians balloting on the "Great De cisions" discussion topio, of "What U. S. Economic Policy for Survival?" Ballots were tabulated this week at Oregon State college for the sixth topic in a series of eight foreign policy issues discussed during the 1953 Great Decisions program. , Discussion groups in 32 Oregon counties participated this year in the program i sponsored by Oregon State college extension service and ; general extension division of j the state system of higher ed ucation, in cooperation with the Foreign Policy associa tion. Reciprocal Trad The majority of Great De cisions voters supported pres ent reciprocal trade arrange ments. Sixty-one per cent vot ed for renewal of the Trade Agreements act which be came law in 1934 but which is due to expire June 30. voters thought Congress should refuse renewal of the act. The remaining ballots fa vored even more liberal trade agreements, authorizing the President to make further tariff reductions on a recipro cal basis with other nations. Congressional debate on the Trade Agreements act has cut across party lines with some opponents of the bill arguing that high tariff pro tection to U. S. business js needed to bolster sagging em ployment and production. er the U. S. should increase its foreign aid activities, Ore gonians voted on policy alter natives as follows: Eighty per cent said Con gress should put more em phasis on "loans and techni cal cooperation" and less em- On the question of wheth- phasis on "outright grants.'' More than half the voters thought the U. S. should give greater emphasis to "econom ic" aid and less to "military aid." Only 5 per cent of the voters thought Congress should reduce all kinds of for eign aid spending. Fifty-two per cent favored increased u. 5. economic as sistance to underdeveloped na tions. Forty - seven per cent thought the U. S. should channel more aid through the United Nations, while only 4 per cent called for less UN channeling, and 49 per cent expressed no opinion Other Adjustments On the question of whether the U. S. should make other adjustments in its foreign economic policy, alternatives were rated as follows: Sixty per cent thought the U. S. should step up its farm surplus disposal program in needy areas of the world, while 32 per cent said we should avoid creating prob lems for other farm surplus nations through out disposal program. Other countries, no tably Canada and Australia, have complained that the U.S. disposal program robs them of regular markets. Fifty-nine per cent thought the U. S. should accept the "world leadership" by. coop erating on economic prob lems with "all nations," while 22 per cent thought we should accept such leadership only in dealing with noncommunist countries. About one - fifth of the voters expressed no opinion. Sawdust Medford Fuel Go. Tel. SP 2-21 1 1 Court & McAntt. 1 Klamath Forest Seeks Help to Control Beetles Yreka John S. Hall, dis trict forest ranger for the Klamath National forest here has issued a call for woods men to contract for the treat ment of beetle infested tim ber in the Greenhorn creek are of the forest. Those interested are re quested to contact Hall at the forest service warehouse at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning A bark beetle survey made cooperatively by the forest service, state division of for estry and private lumber in terests early last month dis closed that the Greenhorn area had an intense infesta tion of bettles which were close enough to the green timber areas of Greenhorn and Yreka creek to menace them. Other areas of the Haystack burn area have high infesta tions, but are well within the burn and the bettles should not reach green stands on the outside, Hall said. These will be treated only by logging, he added. Control work must be com pleted on Greenhorn by May 1, he said, because at that time the beetles begin to emerge from infested trees and fly to green trees within a four mile radius. Control treatment aims to destroy the larva of the beetles in the bark of the tree. This can be done by burning, chemical treatment or removal of the trees by logging, he noted. Drive To Combat Recession Talk Dayton, Ohio nP) Radio station WAVI has begun a drive among businessmen and consumers to combat reces sion talk. The station started the drive to "get the bright outlook", among listeners by emphasizing the sunny side of the current economic situ ation. The campaign consists most ly of business and industrial leaders broadcasting recorded comments on the future of their companies and the com munity. "The comments we have received so far have been fine," said H. K. Crowl, presi dent and general manager of the station. "People have called me saying it is about time someone started some thing positive instead of 'hang- i mg crepe' and sounding like the Voice of doom'." Communications Test Slated by CD Group An over-all communications test will be held on the Civil Defense network, known as Races, between Jackson, Jose phine and Klamath counties 1 to set up monitoring facilities i on all operating frequencies, according to local civil de fense officials. A station in Prospect re cently joined the county net work. Officials said special type of communications is being sent at 8:30 p.m. Mondays for code practice. The network continues its regular 1 p.m. tests each day. ? Builders Supply QUALITY BLOCKS Bricks, Flues, Drain Tile 727 W. McAndrews Ph.
