Public Hearing
Set on Use of
Site for Dumping
A public hearing on the
proposal to use a site in the
Jacksonville area for a gar
bage dump will be held at
8 p.m. Wednesday, before the
county planning commission,
according to Lloyd Selby,
commission member.
A number of Jacksonville
area residents, the Jackson
ville mayor and city council
and the city attorney are ex
pected to attend.
Ervin B. Hogan, Jackson
ville city attorney, said, "at
the present time there is noth
ing in the process concerning
legal action. The citizens of
the area have generally re
quested the meeting."
Plant to Us Dump
The City Sanitary Service
plans fo use the new site for
garbage dumping regardless
of the objections. A Boitano,
operator of ; the service, main
tained Friday.
"The dumping spot we plan
to use is at least a mile away
from the nearest habitation,"
Boitano added. "We can move
the dumping even further
away, but I don't think it will
be necessary," he said.
Although all the county
planning commissioners have
been notified by mail of the
meeting, Boitano said he had
not. He said his company still
plans to start dumping on the
site about Aug. 1. His comp
any recently purchased 360
acres which contains several
canyons.
The service will discontinue
the garbage dumping dump
later, Boitano said. The lat
ter is in the Camp White area.
Both sites are considered un
suitable by the company.

this is believed to be a fore

informally approved such ac

on the forest highway system
mean that federal funds will
be available for construction
of the route as a high-standard,
all-weather highway. It
will be maintained by the
state.
The route is a major link

Much of the present route
is already improved. The part
from Klamath Falls to Lake

Mental Health Program Expansion May Increase Aid
Expansion of the Jackson

to a regional basis might lead
to increased state support, one
member of a legislative in

yesterday.
Dr. Forrest E. Rieke, repre

and Emotional Disturbance,
suggested that Jackson county
consider broadening its serv

equipped counties.
"Can you conceive of your
program enlarging into a re

representatives of local agen

"Do you need state- funds
for regional use or just for

County Court Says
Surplus from Past
Years Is $155,713
The statement that the
Jackson, county government
has a surplus of more than a
million dollars in its treasury
is false, according to members
of the county court. v .
The actual net balance sur
plus from the fiscal year
1957-58 is $155,713.02, ac
cording to the county treasurer's.-records
j -the county- court
stated.
Explaining this statement,
the county court pointed out
that the cash advanced to the
budget totals $1,036,070.23,
all of which has been allocat
ed already. Estimated receipts
for O and C funds total $1,
560,141.86. Estimated miscel
laneous receipts total $839,
675. These amounts make a
total county budget of $3,
435,887.09, the county court
stated.
The county treasurer's rec
ords show that the cash bal
ance on hand as of June 30,
1958, was $1,326,895.64. Out
standing warrants for the
same date totalled $135,112.:
39. This sum, when subtract
ed, brought the cash operat
ing fund balance of June 30
to $1,191,783.25. However,
the funds advanced from this
total for the 1958-59 budget
amounted to $1,036,070.23,
resulting in a net balance of
$155,713.02.
"Further study of the rec
ords reveal that over a five
year period from 1952 to 1958,
average income from all
sources other than taxes was
$2,385,595.73," the county
court stated. "This year's esti
mated income was set at a to
tal of $2,399,816.86. Of this
$1,560,141.86 is estimated to
come from the O and C fund
and $839,675 from the miscel
laneous receipts."
"Also a study of these rec
ords would indicate that funds
at the end of the 1958-59 tax
year would be less than at the
close of the 1957-58 year," the
court said.
trict psychiatrist for the Ore

he maintained that the pro

Mrs. Henry Padgham, rep

Danielson Files
Acceptance of
Nomination Friday
Also Answers Suit
Filed by Medfordite
Robert G. Danielson Friday
officially filed an acceptance
of his certificate of nomina
tion, according to County
Clerk Bereth P. Hopkins.
He also filed an answer to
a complaint by Richard J.
House, Medford, contesting
Danielson's eligiblity for the
district court judgeship. In
his answer, Danielson request
ed that the action be dismis
sed. He stated that he, Daniel
son, had received the greater
number of votes cast during
the primary election accord
ing to the final vote canvass
made on May 29. Danielson
had 7,537, and E. Roy Ba
shaw, Medford city attorney,
7,308.
10 Days Elapsed
Danielson stated . further
that at the time the petition
was filed by House, more than
10 days had elapsed since the
final canvass of election re
turns. The petition was filed
beyond the time allowed by
law, he claimed.
"This court has no juris
diction under the facts al
leged ; and the court lacks
jurisdiction to render valid
judgment," Danielson con-
! eluded in his complaint.
In his complaint, Richard
J. House stated that at the
time of election Danielson
was not eligible for the of
fice of district court judge.
"Prior and subsequent to
the May primary election,
Danielson was not a resident
of the county," House stated
in his complaint. "He had an
nounced, his ineligibility and
had withdrawn."
Says Bashaw Nominated
House asked in his com
plaint that the court deter
mine that Xanielson , was not
nominated and Bashaw was
"duly nominated as the cand
idate receiving the next to
highest number of votes."
The county clerk mailed a
certificate of nomination to
Danielson following receipt of
an opinion from Attorney
General Robert Y.' Thornton
last Monday. Thornton direct
ed Mrs. Hopkins to issue a
certificate of nomination to
Danielson.
The controversy over the
election came as a result of
Danielson's moving from Ash
land to Klamath Falls prior
to the primary. Mrs. Hopkins
deferred issuing a certificate
of nomination until the at
torney general's opinion was
received, on the advice of the
district attorney.

Hit U. 5. Planes
With Rifle Fire
Tension Rising for
Past Two Days ,
Beirut, Lebanon (UPD
Mideast rebel shots that hit
three American warplanes re
sounded globally Saturday
night with a Russian warning
that a world catastrophe
could result from American
and British "aggression" in
Lebanon and Jordan.
The Lebanese front heated
up with disclosure that two U.
S. Navy carrier planes and a
transport loaded with mar
ines had taken rifle fire hits.
In addition, America suf
fered its first 'casualty in the
Lebanon action with the
death of a Navy pilot whose
fighter crashed in territory
where rebel snipers had been
firing.
Villagers See Crash
Nearby villagers who saw
the crash said, however, that
they did not believe the Navy
plane had been hit by rifle
fire.
The disclosures of the shoot
ings and the crash preceded
an ominous warning by Sov
iet Premier Nikita S. Krush
chev that "the guns are al
ready1 beginning to' flre"aiid1
calling for a five-power sum
mit conference Tuesday to
avert "the world's greatest ca
tastrophe." Rebel snipers hit a four-engine
marine corps transport as
it glided low for a landing
here yesterday morning. They
put two bullets into the plane.
One of them narrowly missed
the navigator. The transport
was loaded with marines.
Tension Rising
Tension has been apprecia
bly rising here for the last
two days. The long-dormant
rebels Saturday attacked Leb
anese government headquar
ters in downtown Beirut.
One contingent invaded the
American Presbyterian mis
sion school, then , insurgents
opened up a rifle and grenade
assault on the government
headquarters across the street.
Rebel forces had been quiet
in that area since the marines
landed Tuesday.
The sudden heat-up on the
situation was coincident with
the completion, of . an airlift
from Turkey bringing in 1,700
U. S. Army paratroopers to
join the marines already
strung out on an 11-mile .de
fense line. The American
combined force here now to
tals about 9,000 men the
size of the Lebanese army it
self. Quiet prevailed in Jordan,
where 2,000 British para
troopers found little to com
bat except the blazing sun,
and in Baghdad, Iraq, where
an army-rebel coup set off the
new Mideast crisis last Mon
day. were 187 others in the county
system for whom no special
facilities could presently be
provided.
Committee members dis
cussed the expansion and lo
cation of state institutions
during a business meeting in
the afernoon. While Rep.
Grace Peck urged additions
to the present Fairview Home
in Salem to meet immediate
needs, others, including Dr.
Rieke, asked consideration of
a second large institution. Don
Dawson, principal of Fair
view, spoke afterward in fa
vor of local institutions as sup
plements to Fairview.
It was revealed that the
present waiting list figure for
admission to Fairview was
434, with a time lapse of
often two years or more be
tween commitment and ac
tually entering the Home. The
current population of the in

President's Policy

Notth American Newspaper Alliance. Inc.
Copyright. 1958, by Harry S. Truman
(Reproduction of this article in whole or in part is forbidden
without written authorization.)
The situation in the Middle East is one of extrame
danger, and the President having taken a first and necessary
step, the United States and the free nations of the West
must be alert, determined and exceedingly careful not to
leave any room for misunderstanding as to what we are
prepared to do at all stages. 1
Our objective is to prevent a third world war. Our aim
is to ensure the peace of the world, and we have devoted
our wealth and energies to that end at great sacrifice.
The President has made a momentous decision and pro
claimed a policy which every citizen of the United States
should support.
Bi-Partisanship in Policy '
I hope, too, that we will find a way to create a atmos
phere of genuine bi-partisanship in which our foreign policy
can be supported by all citizens. For it is necessary that
those who are trying to destroy the free world clearly
understand that we will unanimously support the man who
takes the leadership and- that man necessarily will have
to be the President of the United States.
For some time I have been worried about the steadily
worsening prospects for peace and for the arrangements and
organizations we have set up to help keep the peace of the
world. I have been frankly concerned that the same fate
that overtook the League of Nations of Woodrow Wilson
might also befall the United Nations. This would be a great
tragedy, and I expect that many anxious generations would
pass before there could be built another international organi
zation to cope with the recurring dangers of war.

Toward US. Q
Moscow (UPD Soviet Pre
mier Nikita S. Khrushchev
called Saturday for an emer
gency five-power summit con
ference on the Middle, East at
Geneva Tuesday to prevent
"the world's greatest catastro
phe." In letters to President Eis
enhower, British Prime Min
ister Harold Macmillan,
French Premier Charles De
Gaulle and Indian Premier
Jawaharlal Nehru, Khrush
chev said he would agree to'
any time and place the west
ern powers set if they opposed
Geneva Tuesday "in this grim
hour of history when it is no
longer possible to wait anoth
er minute."
Levels New Charges
He levelled new charges
that the United States and
Britain were guilty of "ag
gression" in Lebanon and
Jordan.
Khrushchev suggested that
United Nations Secretary
General Dag Hammarskjold
also attend the meeting.
The letter to Eisenhower
carried the additional warn
ing that' Russia has "ballistic
rockets of all types, including
intercontinental ..one s." He
added that Russia was ahead
of the United States in de
velopment of intercontinental
ballistic missiles.
He said the world, as a re
sult of Anglo-American action
in the Mideast, has "orme to a
point at which any incautious
step may precipitate the
world's greatest catastrophe."
, Khrushchev expressed . a
feeling of extreme urgency in
his call for the meeting. It
was believed he would be
willing to travel to Washing

only way to arrange a summit
parley.
Start Chain Reaction
He warned that the Middle
East crisis, could "start a
chain reaction which would
be impossible to stop."
"However, we consider at
this fateful hour it would be
wiser not to bring the heated
atmosphere to a boiling point,
seeing that it is already suf
