2 MAIL TRIBUNE, MtdforJ, Orgon, Sunday, April 27, 1958 Little Chance Predicted For Industrialist During Coming Italian Election Rome (W A balding, strong-jawed man who makes typewriters, writes books on philosophy, and "rescues" doomed little communities, will test his radical social re form ideals in Italy's general elections next month. Thousands of Italians in the small villages of Piedmont where he first tested out his Christian soical doctrine look up to industrialist Adriano Olivetti, 47, as some one just short of a Messiah. Leading Italian figures ad mire him, although some ques tion the wisdon of his de cision to enter the May 25 general elections on a nation wide scale with his "Com munita" community move ment. Not Much Chanc Experts give Olivetti's fol lowers hardly a chance to win more than one or two seats in the 596-man Chamber of Dep uties. But many observers agree that his platform con tained some of the most inter esting planks in an election campaign which has otherwise produced considerably few new ideas. Deep religous feeling runs through Olivetti's program, which he says aims at a com bination of Roman Catholic ism and Socialism. His basic principle is that national life should be based on small com- HOW CHRISTIAN SCIENCE EE, HEAL Sundays KWIN 10:15 1400 K.C. A.M. munties of about 100.000 in habitants, governed by the spirit of the gospel. It is only in such communi ties, where men know each other and have concrete prob lems to solve, that true direct democracy is possible, Olivetti contends. Large cities ought to be split up into communities of about 100,000 for administra tive purposes, and Italy's gov ernment ought to be based on the communities through a "new kind" of federal system he believes. Olivetti started his career as head of an Ivrea type writer factory which his fath er, Camillo, an artisan with Socialist learnings, started from scratch at the turn of .the century. Under Adriano Olivetti's leadership, the firm has grown into a thrivmg concern em ploying 23,000 workers in five factories in Italy and several branches abroad. Billy Graham Opens West Coast Sermons San Francisco (W Billy Graham, the world's leading evangelist, brought his Cru sade for Christ to- the West Coast Saturday for a six-week campaign against sin in the city made famous by its Bar bary Coast. Graham gets his crusade off with a meeting for 6,000 vol unteer workers Saturday night at the Cow Palace. Sun day he starts a schedule of daily evangelism meetings that he hopes will "light a torch" here on the Pacific Coast for the whole world to see. i Preparations for the Gra ham revival have been under way for a year, with the evan gelist's team of professional publicists and promoters working out of a downtown office since last November. These professionals have re cruited and trained the 6,000 volunteers who will act as counselors, ushers and choir members. Aides predict the Graham rallies will draw a half mil lion persons from San Fran cisco and surrounding areas to the Cow Palace to hear the North Carolina preacher's words of salvation. Crusade officials claim that proportionally there is more enthusiasm here than there was for last year's record breaking Graham crusade at Madison Square Garden, New York. However, the evange list's visit, proclaimed by bill boards, bumper signs and tele vision announcements, has drawn little notice in compar ison to that shown for the new San Francisco Giants baseball team. Graham has an option td extend his stand at the Cow Palace to eight weeks, and he plans to climax the drive for souls in a huge open-air rally at Kezar Stadium in Gold Gate Park. On Reed Board Portland (IP) Mrs. J. P. Weyerhaeuser, Tacoma, Wash, has been elected to the board of trustees of Reed College here. Her election was an nounced by Harold E. San ford, president of the. board, and by Dr. Richard H. Sulli van, Reed president. Yugoslavia Reds Stubborn On Aims Of Party Platform Ljubljama, Yugoslavia OP) Yugoslavia's Communists Communists stood pat Satur day on the controversial party platform that brought their relations with Russia to a new new low. Well-informed sources pre dicted the party congress end ing here today will make few changes in the draft program that froze Yugoslava-Soviet relations at the lowest point since the Hungarian revolt. President Tito was expected to sum up the situation in a speech winding up the con gress. Irritation over the Yugoslav platform caused the Kremlin to cancel plans to send an of-' ficial delegation to the con gress, and its satellites follow ed suit. They were represent ed only by observers, and even they staged one protest walkout. Lines Soften As the congress drew to a close there was a perceptible softening of the "hard line" taken by Tito and other Yug oslav leaders during its open ing sessions. Foreign Minister Koca Pop ovic told the congess Friday that Yugoslavia is linked far more closely .with Russia and the satellite's than with the West. He said Soviet President K. Y. Voroshilov is still sched uled to visit this country next month. The semi-official Yugopress agency said the congress con firmed the nation's policy of "active coexistence." . Even Tito's strong denuncia tion of Soviet attempts at ideological domination of Yug oslavia "under-lined the-positive attitude he holds toward the nations of Eastern Eur ope," the agency said. When hiking, stick togeth er, but not so close as to be hit .by branches that snap back so suggest the Boy Scouts of America. Camp White Seen As Site For Traininq Executives By SID HOLLINGSWORTH Camp White The Veter-j ans administration project at! Camp White has a distinction which may not be apparent in the general program of domi ciliary care and rehabilita tion. It is the utilization of the station as a training center in practical field work for execu tive officers.

Castle, a new man also in VA expe rience. , Castle is "number seven" in the list of assistants who have had basic training at Camp White. Most of the men have come here from desk jobs in other VA installations. They have all been promoted and according to reports, all have done well elsewhere.
