It was pointed out that since a chief purpose of the volunteer service is to demonstrate the need for a permanent professional serv ice, it is important to keep ex plaining these things to the community. A speakers bureau has been set up and speakers already have been furnished to some organizations. A program dealing with the counselling service will be presented over KBES-TV on Oct. 25. Mrs. Robert Minear report ed on bills that are to be in troduced in the legislature by the Legislative Committee on Mental Retardation and Emo tional Disturbance. There was some expression of disapprov al of these bills by members of. the committee, but it was agreed that they were deserv ing of further study. Ex-AEC Member To Talk Tuesday Dr. Joseph S.

Electric Automatic m vd. u Ladies' Dusters Regular $2.98 277 Medford's Bargain Corner Sixth and Central Candidate Parade (Editor's note: This is one of a series of articles con cerning candidates for slate, federal and county office, up for election at the November general election.. They were prepared by the candidates themselves, or on their behalf, at the invitation of the Mail Tribune.) MARIJANE DUNCAN (Democratic candidate for Slate Representative) Having spent several months working as a legisla tive secretary in the 1957 ses sions of the Oregon state leg lature, I know something of the many complex problems that will be facing the 1959 session. I know, too, that long hours and hard work will be the lot of anyone who goes to Salem as a representa tive. Still I seek this task, feeling it to be worthwhile; for it is more than the oppor tunity to serve my country to me, it would be a privilege to have a part however small, in the 'affairs of our state. Such knotty problems as a fair program of taxation, the continuing and expanding of our educational program, the careful budgeting of welfare funds, some revision of unem ployment compensation laws, alleviation of, the difficulties of our migratory workers, finding ways to encourage new industries to come into our state (and, as an impor tant corollary,, helping those we now have to expand and prosper) will come before the 1959 Legislature. . High taxes are the cry; but I feel that it is not the prov ince of a candidate to talk about cutting taxes before he or she is in a position to as sess the needs of our state and the desires of our citizenry. Such promises are made by careless politicians, not hon est candidates. It may be that new sources of revenue must eventually be found. Eut first, let us try to solve our tax problems positively for instance, by a program of expansion of industries and payrolls. There are neglected areas in our educational system, particularly at the elemen tary level. Every child in Oregon today does not have the same educational advan tages, regulated only by his particular need and ability. This is an ideal we must strive to achieve. There is no way of providing adequate education for all our young people that does not cost money. But is there a better investment in our future? Our department of plan ning and development has al ready received thousands of inquiries from persons inter ested in settling in Oregon. It simply does not make sense to me to speak loudly of our disadvantages, much less to exaggerate them in order to make political hay. We have taxes-yes-but upon comparative analysis we find that our position with our sis ter states is not unfavorable. Besides taxes, we have an abundance of natural re sources, a growing labor mar ket, improving transportation facilities, increasing public and private power, and one of the country's best educa tional systems. We have un paralleled scenic beauty and fine recreational facilities. It is' my duty, and yours, especially in this Centennial year, to believe in our state, to work for her good, and to sell Oregon long not short. Should you elect me in No vember, I pledge myself to this wholeheartedly, as well as to represent the people of Jackson county to the utmost of my ability.

ROBERT DUNCAN (Democratic candidate for , Stale Representative) Robert Duncan is seeking reelection as state representa tive, having served in the general and regular sessions of 1957. He is 37 years old, married to Marijane, and has five children. He has been a resident and practicing attor ney in Medford since 1948. He was raised in Blooming ton, 111., attended the Univer sity of Alaska' Illinois Wes leyan, and is a graduate of Michigan Law school.

There he earned a reputation for economy, saving the tax payers many dollars while still supporting progressive legislation.

Copy of Old German An 1889 copy of a German language newspaper printed in Brooklyn, N. Y., was dis covered behind an old paint ing recently by Mrs. Scott Brill, Trail. ber of the interim education committee, and the important emergency board, which has appropriative powers during the interim between sessions. Duncan carried one of the heaviest loads, both in com mittee and in the debate on the floor. He studied each measure voted on in as much detail as time would permit. He doubtless made mistakes, but he tried sincerely to rep resent the people of Jackson county regardless of their party, and made himself al ways available to discuss any problems or ideas submitted to him.
