Paris Goes All-Out
To Entertain Flood
Of U.S. Tourists
Paris (UPD-American tourists
are flocking to Paris in stead
ily increasing numbers and
the gay and glamorous city
on the Seine is going all-out
to entertain them.
According to F. Paul Far
ish, general manager of the
American Chamber of Com
merce, 700,000 Americans are
expected to visit Europe in
1959. Of this number, France
anticipates about 550,000.
"Eighty per cent of those
who come to France make a
point of seeing Paris," said
Farish.
An interesting development
in European travel is the
package "tour, -which is' a big
factor in the booming travel
market. It is often a combina
tion of many forms of trans
portation ship and air; air
and bus; ship and train; ship,
air and auto; air and auto, and
so on.
Tours Available
All the big shipping compa
nies, like American Export
Lines, the U.S. Lines and Cu

American and TWA, have
package tours available.

Mediterranean port of Cannes
on the Riviera.
Tourists " sailing from New
York on the luxury liners
Constitution or Independence
disembark and proceed to
Paris by train or plane. It's
10 hours by train and one
hour and a half by plane. Aft
er touring in France and else
where on the continent, trav
elers can take either ship on
the return voyage.
The sun-lane route is as fast
from New York to Cannes as
by way of northern channel
ports and the weather is bet
ter the year around.
Talking Point
i, Thejiew joute has provided
tour leaders with a strong
talking point. Raymond T. De
Nite, assistant vice president
of the American Express Com
pany in France, said:
"There is a tendency on the
part of tourists to go at least
one way by ship. The Medi
terranean route gives tour
leaders an opportunity to of
fer this optional way of trav
eling. Air connections to Paris
are excellent."
Newspapermen who made a
preview trip from New York
on the Constitution disem
barked in mid-morning at
Cannes. They boarded the
French Railway's "Mistral" at
12:30 p.m. and arrived in Par
is at 10:53 p.m., right on time.
Paris, of course, is as beau
tiful as ever. Lights blaze all
over the city. Everything is
humming. The streets are
alive with pedestrians. The
sidewalk cafes are crowded.
Traffic No Different
Motor cars, buses and bi
cyclists whirl along the thor
oughfares at a dizzy pace.
Traffic congestion seems no
different than New York, Chi
cago or San Francisco.
Hotels are packed to capac
ity. The cocktail bars are
jammed with tourists.
Farish told reporters that
France has changed in the
last year and a half under
President Charles de Gaulle.
The French now "know where
they're g o i n g," he said.
France, he added, is doing a
wonderful job of reconstruc
tion and the French standard
of living is improving steadily.
An open house will be held'
Friday, June 19, at the Cen
tury building, East Main st,
between 2 and 4 p.m. It will
mark the official opening of
the new building which was
completed this year.
The building, the old Com
munity hospital, was sold last
September to Claude H. Essel
strom and Harold A. Essel
strom, Roseburg businessmen.
During the Friday event,;
coffee and doughnuts will be
served to the public and tours'
will be conducted through the
building.

Some Radiation
Helps Life Span
San Diego, Calif.- (UPD -A
medical researcher thinks
that small amounts of radia
tion may, lengthen human life
rather than shorten it.
Dr. Crawford F. Sams, of
the University of California,
offered a theory that all ra
diation was not bad. He
spoke before a session of the
American Association for the
Advancement of Science.
"I'm ashamed that some
scientists have assumed that
all radiation is bad," he said.
"We have become so con
cerned with : the effects of
high radiation that we have
overlooked the facts."
He cited experiments in
which rats exposed to low
level radiation lived 30 per
cent longer than most rats.
"You cannot say that
firing two more nuclear
bombs will decrease the hu
man life span," he said. "It
might increase it."
He emphasized that he was
talking about small amounts
of radiation and not massive
baths.

State Scholarship Regulations Tc'd '
Salem-(UPD -Students nomi
nated for state-paid scholar
ships by members of the leg
islature before the repeal of
the old free-scholarship law
must re-apply to the new
State - Scholarship Commis
sion if they have not already
been selected by their county
court, according to Attorney
General Robert Y. Thornton.
Sen. Frank Weatherf ord re
quested the opinion because
he had nominated a Fossil
High school senior for a free
scholarship to Oregon State
college before passage of the
new law.
, The new law became effec
tive in May. It created a State
Scholarship Commission
which can award one scholar
ship for each seat in the Leg
islature and one for each
county in the state. Under
the old law, qualified stu
dents were nominated Jy leg
islators and then were select
ed by lot by their county
courts.
The boy in question will
have to apply to the new
commission.

Suicide Prompts
Typecasting Study
Hollywood-(UPI-The Screen
Actors Guild Wednesday was
prompted by the suicide of
actor George "SuDerman"
Reeves to discuss typecasting.
"The guild has long recog
nized the grave difficulties
created for an actor who gets
so well established in a par
ticular role that he cannot
find employment in any
other," said Guild executive
secretary John L. Dales.
"This was true to a certain
degree in theatrical motion
pictures but is even more dif
ficult in television pictures."
Dales said the guild's an
swer to the problem was its
successful bargaining for resi
dual payments to actors for
re-runs of TV films. He also
pointed to its present program
for laws permitting actors to
average income taxes over a
period of years rather than
pay high taxes in their peak
earning years.
