o o Q o O. O O G (30 &AL TRIBUNE, Medford. Oregon, Tuesday, July 22, 1958 . - hrome twines Would Welcome r ogram to Get Them to Work 63ngressmen Charles O. Porter testified before a sub committee in Washington, D.C., last week that chrome miners would welcome any feasible program that gets them to work. He testified fcefore the sub committee on mines and min ing of the committee oij in terior and insglar affairs re garding a bill introduced by (Congressman Clair Engle of California. Porter (aid he agreed with Secretary of Interior Fred Seaton that "the maintenance of some production will stimu late and give purpose to the research program." The con gressman said he thought "this is an important objec tive." ' Quotes ejeaton He quoted Seaton as saying "the basically short world supply coupled with the stra tegic nature of three of these minerals namely, beryl, co-lumbium-tantalum, and chro mite, as well as the heavy de pendence of the United States on distant overseas sources of supply, underscore the desir ability of making every effort to develop and maintain some production of these commo dities from domestic sources." Porter noted that in 1951, when the chrome stockpile program started, there was no known reserves and the gov . ernment program called for 200,000 tons of high grade chromite. "It took 5Vi years to. fur nish 100,000 tons to the Grants Pass stockpile," Porter continued. "It took less than IV2 years to furnish the last 100,000 tons. There is now more than 100,000 tons of high grade chromite reserves that could immediately move Into the market." ' Become Established The chorme mining indus O try is beginning to become established, he said, and is ap proaching' the place that it "will stimulate-and give pur pose to research." Referring to research, he said "our fu . ture mineral supplies depend upon it." He noted that research has reduced the cost per pound of aluminum, produced oil from what would never have been recovered, and has vast ly increased the potential nickel supplies. Porter pointed out that Engle's bill "is a constructive proposal that places no bur den on the government and 11 put the chrome ' owners in. business without mterfer ring with our policies overseas. O The proposed bill' would .' assure a chrome ore produc ers' cooperative a market for 50,000 tons of chromium ferro alloys over a six-year period. "The population of the West Coast is expanding," he noted. "This means an increase in in dustry with a burgeoning mar ket for chormium products." "The airplane industry on the West Coast is planning to convert to higher temperature steels. That will mean an in crease in the use of chromite, and the steel plants have plans for expansion in the near future." "As we have the ore and from every indication a future market, it seems to me H. R. 13280 offers a workable solu- t tion to the chrome problem. ; I understand that the Departs Narcotics Taken in Nursing Home Robbery Camas, Wash.

The Family Council Editor's note: The Family Council consists of a Judge, s psychiatrist, three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writers. Each article s a summary ot an actual report. The Family Council does not five advice; it merely reports on problems that have been dealt with by responsible agencies and counselor. Mrs. B.E. Bob and his wife should live with us. Bob E. They interfere in little ways. Mrs. B.E. My son, who is just 23, was recently married. His father and I opposed the marriage, but we were un able to do anything with him. Now we accept it and are try ing to take his wife to our hearts like our own child. We would like Bob and his wife to live with us for a while until they can get on their own feet. We have a big house and the other chil dren have all left. Bob and his wife are both working, but they haven't yet saved any money and will have quite a struggle. We wouldn't interfere in their lives in any way ' and they would have the utmost privacy, but they aren't will ing to stay with us for even a short time. Isn't that fool ish? We are really quite hurt. - Bob E. My parents have been wonderful about this whole thing and I do appre ciate their attitude. I believe my mother is sincere when she says she and my father don't want to interfere with us, but whether they realize it or not they do interfere in little ways My wife is very sensitive to everything they say because she knows they didn't like her at first. She says my mother sometimes says little things which annoy her, like, "Why don't you comb your hair before going out? or "Let me show you how Bob likes his coffee." Mother means well, but Lillian takes it that she is being criticized.. It is going to be very rough going for us, but we feel we would be better off in our own place. The Council: It takes a great deal of tolerance, self restraint and general matur ity for two couples to live to gether successfully. We don't believe it could be done in western Oregon." Medford Attorney Bruce Manley, president of the Cali fornia Oregon Chrome Produ cers association, presented de tailed information concerning the proposed development program, Porter noted. council has never been more situation in Lebanon ana its service- station operator who from a plane the youth crashed - for the pilot. I never dreamed identified as that nation which stick of massive retaliation." They are Tomoko Moritake of From Bob's statement, we would judge his wife has a childish resistance against what she supposes is author ity. Another way of looking at his mother's remarks would be to see that so much interest indicates love and thoughtfulness. Bob's wife feels it is criticism because she lacks confidence in her self. Mrs. B.E. should not feel hurt when her son rejects her generous offer. She should realize her plan could not work out well under the cir cumstances. A n t a g o n isms would be set up and they would last a lifetime. , Left to themselves, Bob and Lillian will probably, take their various problems and hardships in stride. They will not be able to blame any of their disagreements or set backs on any other person. In this way they will develop strength and self-responsibil ity. (Copyright. 1958. General Features Corp.)
