Progress Reports Scheduled at
Meeting of Council on Aging

tees surveying housing, em
ployment and recreation
needs for older citizens will
be given at a meeting of the
Rogue Valley council on
aging Thursday, May 29, at
3 p.m. at the Red Cross audi
torium. A meeting of the housing
committee will be held pre
ceding the general session, at
2:45.
The council has been study
ing the needs of the older gen
eration with a view to estab
lishing a "senior village," a
low-cost housing development
for persons of mature years,
as veil as working towards
elimination of discrimination
against middle-aged and older
persons who are seeking jobs.
To help fill the need for re
creation, the Fifty Plus club
has been organized under
sponsorship of the council's
recreation committee.
Urged lo Attend
Council members are urg
ing attendance from the
Rogue valley at the northwest
conference of the national
organization's committee on
aging, June 29-July 2, in
Portland. Sessions will be
held at Reed college, with
"Searchlight on our Futures"
as the program theme. The
Oregon council is taking re

meeting through Mrs. Helen
Zollinger, Portland.
Frank Glonning, chairman
of the council, will preside at
the Thursday meeting and

Debate Adjourns
On Alaska Bill
Washington (IP) House
debate on statehood for Alas
ka was adjourned Friday un
til Monday for lack of a
quorum.
After only 23 minutes of
talk on the bill to make Alas
ka the 49th state. Rep. Clare
E. Hoffman R-Mich. noted
the absence of more than half
the members. Under a gentle
man's agreement reached
earlier among House leaders,
this made it necessary to ad
journ until Monday.
- Debate will end at 5 p.m.
Monday and voting on the
bill will start then or the fol
lowing day.
Many members were out of
town for a long weekend,
about 50 of them on a three
day annual trip to New York
City.
Rep. Craig Hosmer (R
Calif.) the only speaker to
day, opposed making Alaska
a state. He said "there simply
does not exist a sufficent
number of people in Alaska
to justify statehood."
Statehood advocates have
argued that Alaska's estima
ted 208,000 people provide a
large enough base for start
ing self-government.
Before Friday's brief de
b a t e, statehood advocates
claimed their opposition was
wearing down and had aban
doned attempts to block ac
tion on the bill.

ing studied.
Mrs. H. P. Bosworth Jr.,
chairman of the housing com
mittee, told of the Fifty Plus
club's plan for a housing unit
for older people. It is sort of
a do-it-yourself plan on a low
cost basis, although not a phil
anthropic venture. The coun
cil is being asked to act as
agent, or go-between, to pro
mote establishment of the
project. Cooperation is being
sought from other groups in
the area.
Meeting Held
It was reported that the
housing committee met with
County Commissioners Ches
ter Wendt and Ralph James,
and C. C. Hoover and son,
Bud, Mark Goldy and Bruce
Bauer, authorities on housing
and real estate, for an apprai
sal of the proposed plan.
Lindsay Vinsel, in charge of
the adult education program
for the Medford city schools,
pledged cooperation of his de
partment when and if it is
needed. The employment
committee has considered the
need for a housekeeper's or
maid's training program.
A building for use of the
council and the Fifty Plus
club is also one of the prob
lems. Mrs. Elizabeth Sheffield
of Rogue River asked about
the possibility of permitting
the Society of Southern Ore
gon Artists to use any build
ing that may.be obtained for
the display of local art work
and crafts. The old city build
ing on Hawthorne and Jack
son sts. has been suggested,
but renovation costs may be
prohibitive, it was pointed
out.
Mrs. Enid Rankin, chairman
of the state council's commit
tee on community services,
discussed plans for a state
wide survey to determine
what discrimination has exist
ed employment-wise against
older people. She asked that
anyone so discriminated
against send a post card to the
Oregon State Council on
Aging, post office box 5197,
Eugene, giving the facts in
volved. C. L. Williams, Ashland, a
retired federal worker and a
member of the council's em
ployment committee, agreed
to aid in the survey. He re
ferred to a recent report in
"Local Labor Market" giving
testimony from executives
that reasons for hiring older
workers include their pa
tience, maturity, experience
and know-how, plus their wis
dom and understanding.

representative of the Medford
Junior Women's club, report

Bernice F. My fiance
wants me to have a career.
Daniel G. I don't see why
she can't do both.
Bernice F. My fiance and
I are in our early twenties and
we are planning to be mar
ried within a few months. We
want to straighten out some
of our problems now so things
will go smoothly afterwards.
I have been trained as a
dancer and have looked for
ward to a career in this field
all my life. But recently I
have been reading a great
deal about what a mistake it
is to sacrifice the duties and
responsibilities of a wife and
mother for s career. Some
psychologists say. a woman
can't be happy unless she
completely accepts homemak
ing as a career.
Well, my choice is a hus
band, home and children, but
surprisingly, my fiance wants
me to go on with my career.
Daniel G. B e r n i c e has
great talent as a dancer and
is just beginning to make her
way. It seems to me it would
be a shame to hide all that
ability and training. I fell in
love with her when I saw her
dance and I want her to go on
dancing.
Of course, I want her to be
a wife and mother and a hap
py woman, too. It seems to
me some women manage to
combine marriage and a ca
reer quite successfully. I have
seen it in my own family and
I don't see why Bernice can't
do it, too.
I realize there will be diffi
culties, but I am ready to face
them and to cooperate in
every way I can. I don't see
how Bernice can take so light
ly the idea of giving up her
work.
The Council: There are
many sides to th'is complicated
question. We doubt whether
Bernice and Daniel can iron
out all the problems involved
in advance of marriage al
though they are certainly
wise to give it a lot of serious
thought.
Despite the fact that some
psychologists have insisted
upon the acceptance of com
plete dedication to home and
children as the prime requi
site for happiness for a wom
an, we are of the opinion that
this view is far too sweeping.
Many women today simply
cannot accept this road and
the greatest happiness for

them cannot be achieved
without some expression in
the form of work outside the
home and family.
We do not deny a woman's
life is greatly complicated if
she wishes to do two big,
highly engrossing jobs. It
takes enormous stamina, drive
and organization to. accom
plish both with reasonable ef
ficiency. It also takes an un
derstanding and cooperative
husband, who shares . his
wife's ambitions for herself.
We do not deny, either,
there must be some sacrifice
in both realms when a wom
an juggles two careers. She
may be forced into years of
complete inactivity in her pro
fessional life. Her family may
at times suffer because of her
work. We also think it, pos
sible that one career may con
tribute something to the other,
enriching both in a unique
way. .......

try to think in terms of what
she wholeheartedly wants to

because she feels it is the best
way for her, we don't see why
she should complicate her

he is marrying a woman, not
