i O o o O Tribune 2ni SEOTON MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, JUNE 12, 1958 Pages 1-12 Trade Said Necessary To Keep Japan Among Free Countries By A. 80 BERT f WITH Mail Tribune Correspondent GVashington On th eve of the critipal reciprocal trade debate in the Houta o Represe ntl tives, a fivt- m a n unitea States trde mission to Ja pan made its report here to illustrate the nature of the l stakes in this battle be- 1 j eAkt Srrritb iweeil wurcv.- tionists and those who would expand America's trade with the free world. Harold F. Wendel, president o and gen eral manager of Lipman Wolfe of Portland, was one of the members of the trade mis sion headed by Undersecre tary of Commerce W. Walter Williams, who is a mortgage banker in Seattle in private life. . When I noted that protec tionists are trying to arouse public sentiment in the North west against Japanese trade because of increasing ply wood imports from the Far East, Wendel said he had checked with plywood pro ducers who told him Japanese hardwood plywood is not competitive or hurtful to Ore gon softwood plywood. But for the point which Committee Clears Neuberger's Bill Washington (UPI) The Senate Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee Wed nesday cleared for floor ac tion a bill sponsored by Sen. Richard L. Nyiberger (D Ore.) to give the interior sec retary collaterial jurisdiction over Federal Power Commis sion dam project licenses. . The Neuoerger bill pro vides that no license affecting fish and wildlife resources shall be issued until plans of the dam or other structures have been -approved by. the interior secretary. Neuberger said "the re porting of my bill, as amend ed, is very heartening news to all of us who seek to pre serve the great fisheries mi grations of the Columbia." "Now, for the first time," Neuberger said, "the Fish and Wildlife Service may have an opportunity to exert restraint on the Federal Power Com mission when dams are licensed on rivers inhabited Portland Lico Experiment Fails Portland (UPI) An experiment to try to hatch live head lice on the arm of aij) epidemiologist with the State Board of Health has ended in failure. The health board, in an effort to get information on the type of head lice reported in the Portland area recently, put an "incubator" with nine lice eggs, or nits, on a plastic shell on the arm of Mrs. Vivian Runte, who volun teered. Rut the board called the experiment a failure, although i seven of tne mis iripiea m size and changed color. Mrs. Runte said officials believe the shell's air hol were too small at first and that mois ture condensation may have prevented hatching". She said she knew of no plans to trg the experiment again. Officials are uncertain as to what type of parasit.e has been reported here. the protectionists avoid, Wen del sized up the situation about as neatly as possible: "Last year we sold Japan f 1 billion in goods, but Japan was able to sell us only $500 million worth. We were told very forcibly that if Japan can't sell to us, she will have to turn the other way. If she does, all Southeast Asia will go that way. That would be a calamity. So those are the stakes. Holding Japan among the free nations is entirely a matter of trade." The trade mission sought to advise the Japanese on ways to improve their selling po tential in this country by em ploying the creative skills of the Japanese people for pro duction of a wider variety of products of high quality. Tourist trade was found to be one of the greatest poten tials for Japan, if it is promot ed as an export. The report noted Japan's "artistic and cultural traditions, its classic architecture and gardens, its awe - inspiring temples and shrines. Japan is already well known and appreciated by hundreds - of thousands who would spend dollars in par taking of Japan's scenic beau ty and its cultural heritage." Underseecretary Williams disclosed that the Internation al Cooperation Administra tion has launched a tourism survey of all countries on the rim of the Pacific. The mis sion urged the Japanese to prepare now by building air ports capable of accommodat ing transoceanic jets and hotels for visitors. This flow of American tour ists to the Orient will benefit Portland and Seattle just as the older flow of tourism to Europe has benefited the great Atlantic port cities. The mission reported that the Japanese are not insensi tive to friction caused by im port competition. They told the Japanese that America is "the largest market in the world and can be expected to expand very substantially over the next 10 years." They recommend developing the market for new products, in stead of relying on large quantities of old standbys such as textiles. Unlike some protectionists, the members of the trade mis sion shouldered the immense responsibilities of America's leadership in the free world's fight for survival and sought to be creative in a situation where it is much easier to cry out blindly for the high tariffs which are a keystone of isolationism.

Well, the Council says that while no official figures are available, many auto acci dents are caused by just such otherwise harmless objects as cigarettes, cnuaren ana ice i 'cream cones. j "Distractions contribute to a great percentage of the na tion's motor vehicle mishaps," the Council says. Let's suppose you're cruis ing down the highway at 60 m.p.h. and drop your ciga rette.

Then it's not so funny." Western Utilities Issue Securities Portland (UPI) Twenty one per cent of the more than $5 million in securities issued by the nation's utilities last year was offered by utilities in the 11 western states, Dr. F. P. Morrissey of the Uni versity of California said here Wednesday. Biggest share of this capital came from the eleectric in dustry, Dr. Morrissey told the Mountain-Pacific States Con ference of Public Service, meeting at Portland's Multno mah hotel. Dr. Morrissey said the 21 per cent figure in 1957 com pares with 16 per. cent in 1952 and indicates the "western region is truly a growth area." Continued growth of the West's population and econ omy also was forecast by Dr. William A. Spurr of Stanford University's graduate school of business. The conference will end to night. DON'T DELAY!
