Nuclear Forces
Better Understood
By K Meson Study
Los Angeles, (Science Serv
ice A three-year study of the
K" meson, a strange particle
which should not exist at all
under the old laws of physics,
may lead scientists to a clear
er understanding of basic nu
clear forces, and eventually
to a new phyical principle in
nature.
Some results of this study
have been reported by a group
of physicists at the University
of California at Los Angeles,
led by Drs. Harold Ticho and
Donald K. Stork.
The invisible K meson is
called "strange" by physicists
because there seems to be nd
valid reason for its existence.
While its actual lifetime is
one hundred-millionth of a
second, under the old laws of
physics a particle such as the
. K meson was expected to de
cay in one thousand-billion-billionth
of a second. At this
decay rate, the K meson
should have been completely
undetectable.
Scientists Pussled
' .The - reason for the unex
pected; longevity puzzles sci
entists, but its existence in
dicates a new basic principle
in nature.
The K meson is created in
nature through the high en
ergy in cosmic ray particles
interacting in the atmosphere.
However, - not enough of the
natural mesons could be iso
lated for laboratory study, un
til, in 1954, the bevatron in
Berkeley began to produce
enough artificial K mesons to
allow systematic research. '
"One of the reasons for
studying K meson," explains
Dr. Stork, "it that the force
which holds nuclei together
isbot well understood.
"Discovery of the pi-meson,
the so-called 'nuclear glue' was
a great step forward. With
more thorough analysis of the
K meson, we hope to arrive
at a clearer understanding of
the basic foundation of nu
clear force."
Virginia Governor
Battles Integration
Richmond, Va.-(UPD-Gov. J.
Lindsay Almond moved today
to rebuild Virginia's defenses
against school integration by
a new legislative program to
replace "massive resistance"
laws struck down by federal
and state courts.
Almond was naming a spe
cial legislative commission to
consider new laws to keep
Negro and white students
from attending the same
schools.
Almond, an avowed segre
gationist, had closed nine Vir
ginia schools last fall when
the schools were ordered inte
grated by federal court rul
ings. Monday, both the state's
highest court and a federal
court panel declared the
state's "massive resistance"
laws unconstitutional.
Stand on Death
Penalty Reaffirmed
Portland -(DPD- The Oregon
Prison Association Monday re
affirmed its opposition to a
death penalty in Oregon, even
though a measure against the
death penalty was beaten by
voters at the polls last No
vember. Mrs. Claire Argow, associa
tion executive director, said
the voting margin which kill
ed the measure indicated that
it still might have a good
chance of passage if once
more referred to the voters.
She said the Association felt
Oregon should follow the lead
of other states and abolish the
death penalty.
The group also reaffirmed
its stand for a full-time Ore
gon parole board and said it
planned to continue to seek
establishment of a women's
prison in Oregon.
Committee on Judicial Ad
ministration," he said. "How
ever, we will hold public hear
ings and consider them care
fully before taking action."
Another bill requested by
the Bar implements a measure
passed by the people at the
November election regarding
appointment of po tern circuit
judges.
Pro Tem Judges
A qualified person appoint
ed as a pro tem circuit judge
would be limited to 00 days
service, unless his term was
extended - by the Supreme
Court to enable him to con
clude work on a case which
he heard.
Retired judges also could
be called. The pro tem judges
would be paid $35 a day.
Boys committed to Mac-
Laren" school for boys could
not be transferred to the new
state correctional institution
or the penitentiary under
Senate bill 43.
An effort to cut down the
number of habeas corpus pe
titions filed by state prison
inmates is contained in SB 35
introduced by Sen. Robert
White (R-Salem) and others.
Back To The County ,
It provides that after the
filing of a habeas corpus pro
ceeding to test the validity of
a criminal conviction or sen
tencing to the prison or state
institutions, the court may
transfer the case to the county

was imposed.
Four bills were introduced
by the Senate committee on
Fiancinal Affairs.
Permanently disabled per

The Family Council
Editor's note: The Omlljr Council consists of a Judge, a psychiatrist,
tKree clergymen, a newspapet editor a women's editor and two writers.
Each article is a summary nf an actual report. The Family Council does
not give advice; it merely reports on problems that have been dealt
with by responsible agencies and counselors.
Mrs. H. V-My husband and
I are quite upset about our
20-year-old daughter, Edna.
. Last summer we went with
her and our younger son to
a vacation resort where we
planned to spend several
weeks. Edna and one of the
young musicians there fell for
one another at least we
thought that was the case.
Less than two weeks passed
when our son become ill and
we had to return home. Edna
begged to remain for another
week, but we didn't think it
was right to leave her by her
self. Well, the young musician
never got in touch with Edna
as he had promised to. Edna
has made some attempts
through mutual friends to
meet him again, but it hasn't
worked out. I have tried to
convince her. that, the man
couldn't have cared very
much for her if he could be
so easily sidetracked, but Ed
na keeps throwing the whole
thing into our faces, accusing
us of ruining a wonderful
chance for marriage. .
'
Edna V.-My mother leaves
out several important, parts
of the story. One is that my
pain-in-the-neck kid brother
has faked sickness before
when he found himself in a
place he. didn't like. Another
thing is that when ,we got
home my parents realized that
my brother wasn't nearly as
sick as he pretended and they
refused to go back to the re
sort even though I begged
them.
The worst part of the whole
thing is that my parents put
me in a terrible light and, as
a matter of fact, completely
disgraced me in front of this
young man. There were many
girls of my age at this resort
without their parents. My par
ents treated me like a teen
ager who' couldn't be left
alone. No wonder this man
lost interest in me. ,
I have been dating since I
was 13 and I have never be
fore felt this way about any
one. You would think my par
ents would be willing to make
one small sacrifice for me
just once.
Thm Council: It should be
evident to any young woman
of 20 that in the first place, a
meaningful relationship can
not be established in less than
two weeks. In the second
place if there were anything
like serious interest on the
man's part he certainly
wouldn't lose it merely be
cause Edna left the resort
early. ,
Far more likely Edna her
self created a bad impression
by acting like ..a baby. Her
lack of concern about her
brother's illness (real or fak
ed) must have been- abvious.
Her petulant struggle with
her parents brought out her
word side and probably de
stroyed whatever possibility
there was for her "romance"
to survive the summer.
It is very clear that Edna
is quite backward emotion
ally and psychologically and
is far from ready for marriage
to anyone. Probably she does
need to be a lot more inde
pendent. Edna will not gain real in
dependence merely by going
to vacation resorts on her own.
She needs experience in deal
ing with others on a practical
level. Is she is a college stud
ent her best opportunity to do
this is during vacation per
iods. She should gain working
experience at that time. If she
is not a student she should
be working during the year.
This will help her gain self-

Democrat Leaders
i
Not Frightened
By Ike's Warning
Washington - (DPD - Demo
cratic congressional leaders
were not frightened today by
President Eisenhower's warn
ing that they will be blamed
if the government continues
to spend more than it collects.
In the first place, they saw
no real hope that the govern-ment-which
is now running a
record-high peacetime spend
ing deficit of $13 billion in
the current fiscal year--could
actually achieve the $70 'mil
lion surplus envisioned in the
President's budget for the new
fiscal year starting July 1.
In the second place, they
figured the American people,
given a choice, would rather
have an unbalanced budget
than accept the "austerity"
program recommended by the
President.
Welfare-Spending Bills
Challenging Eisenhower to
veto them, the Democrats
pressed ahead with plans for
early congressional action on
three welfare-spending bills,
any one of which could throw
out of kilter the President's
new precariously - balanced
budget.
Two of these measures
would provide bigger federal
spending for housing pro
grams and for economically
depressed areas than proposed
by the President. The third
called for a larger program
of federal air for building
airports than the President
proposed.
Key Democrats said Con
gress also was likely to pro
vide more money for defense,
but less for foreign aid, than
requested by the President.
Plans for Booth
Discussed Friday
Rogue River-Plans to set
up an information booth in
the Rogue River area to dis
tribute Centennial literature
to tourists were discussed at
an organizational meeting for
Centennial affairs in the area
Friday.
Also discussed were plans
for a game meat dinner to be
held June 20 in conjunction
with the annual Rooster
crowing contest. Several more
historic sites will be located
and marked with the infor
mation to be added to printed
literature, those at the meet
ing were told.
Speaker was "Jack Creager,
president of the Centennial
association. Chairman of the
Centennial activities in Rogue
River is Max Thayer.

Nine Tax Bills
Receive First
House Reading
Salem - (DPD - Twenty-five
bills introduced in the Oregon
House Monday as the 50th
Legislature entered its sec
ond week, brought the total
number of bills introduced
so far to 108.
The fast-moving House read
nine tax bills for the first
time at the request of the
State Tax Commission.
Important tax bills:
HB 85: Levies a gross in
come tax of 1 per cent on
earnings of seasonal agricul
ture workers with no person
al exemptions, deductions of
credits allowed. This would
be in lieu of a personal' in
come tax levy.
HB 87: Provides for a $5
collection charge on delin
quent income taxs and auth
orizes the Tax Commission to
waive collection of tax bills
of $1 or less.
Other Bills
HB 88: Eliminates require
ments of a taxpayer to show
good cause in asking for an
extension of time for' filing
tax returns and increases the
interest on extended taxes
from 6 to 12 per cent a year.
HB 91: Repeals the tax on
music and amusement devices.
The Committee on Fish and
Game introduced a bill HB
98 which would allow the
governor to extend hunting
seasons if he delays their op
ening because of fire danger
in the forests.
The committee also recom
mended in HB 100 that the
State Game Commission and
Fish Committee be combined
in one agency with two di
visions, one for birds and an
imals and the other for fish.
It requests $20,000 to pay for
the merger.
Snider's Motion
On Centennial
Business Tabled
Portland -(DPD-The conces
sion committee, composed of
three of nine Oregon Centen
nial Commission members,
had its powers back today
after turning over what it
termed a "dramatic sample"
of its problems to the full
Commission for decision.
John Snider of Medford,
one of the cpmmissioners,
suggested Monday that pow
ers of the concession commit
tee be returned to the full
commission. The concession
group then turned over to
the Commission a request
from the Northern Speciality
Sales Company that it be al
lowed to put out a kit contain
ing Centennial stamps, but
tons, stickers and a decal.
Approval Granted '
After a long discussion
which at times became heated,
the full Commission granted
its approval-subject to an
okay from women's clubs in
volved. First,: however, the
Commission wanted to know
the cost of the kits which will
sell for about $2. It was told
the cost would be about 77
cents. The Commission will
get 50 cents and the women's
clubs 50 cents on each kit
sold. The firm Dlans to sell
about 100,000 kits. Therefore,
the women's clubs and the
Commission would make
about $50,000 each and the
firm $23,000.
After the debate the Com
mission tabled Snider's mo
tion. It added the only power
the concession committee has
is to permit use of the copy
righted Centennial seal.
