"Douglas McKay was a' dis tinguished political leader in my state for more than a quar ter of a century . . . although it is well known that this dis tinguished Oregonian and the senior Senator . from Oregon differed on many political matters-in fact, he was my op ponent in the 195(5 campaign for the Senate in that state the fact : is, -however, that I have always held him, as a person, in very high regard. "We differed vigorously on issues. But he and I belonged to certain fraternal organiza tions, and we were true, in our relationships, to the teach ings of those organizations. "The state of Oregon has suffered a great loss. The na tion has lost the service of a distinguished public servant. Mrs. Morse joins me in my ex pression on the floor of the Senate today, as we will join in a personal note to the fam ily, in deep sympathy to Mrs. McKay and to the McKay fam ily, and in our sincere regret that this leader has passed from us."

Fair view Home Notes Progress By Mentally Retarded Children By, DICK HUMPHREY UPI Correspondent Salem-flJPD-Mental retarda tion is a handicap that affects more Americans than any other more than five million of them. . There are many hopeful signs of progress in under standing this mysterious ill ness and much progress can be seen here at Fairview Home for the Mentally Rre-tarded. More than half the 2100 children in Fairview will leave after education and training in Oregon's only public insti tion for the mentally retarded. They will be able to take care of themselves and many will be able to hold jobs to make them self-sufficient. But the other half will prob ably remain at Fairview for life. Mental retardation is usual ly detected early in life and when doctors and parents agree . that institutional care is needed, the courts will com mit a child to Fairview for maximum self-development. , There are 16 cottages at Fairview housing children m an environment that they can deal with. On the gloomy side is Kozer cottage with 120 bed-fast pa tients who require constant MEDFomJitii Tribune 2nd SECTION MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, JULY 23, 1959 Pages 1-10 Mitchell Emerges As Ike's Adviser In Steel Strike Washington (UPD - Secretary of Labor James P. Mitchell emerged today as President Eisenhower's top adviser in the steel strike. This was the significance of Mitchell's announcement that he had the President's approv al to become a one-man fact finder to investigate the caus es of the walkout. j Position of Influence His, announcement placed him in a commanding position within the administration to influence both the steel in dustry and United Steelwork ers Unionu as well as the Pres ident." It appeared that Eisenhow er was delegating major re sponsibility to his secretary of labor to keep abreast of strike developments 'and keep him posted. A recommendation from Mitchell could be the deciding factor when and if the gov ernment seeks an 80-day no strike injunction to get steel production going again. Both Eisenhower and Mitch ell have said that the strike OIL NEED CHANGING? New York-IUPE-A new in strument enables service' sta tion attendants to tell at a glance whether your car needs an oil change. It is call ed the Fotoscope and was de veloped by the Mobil Oil Co. A few drops of crankcase oil from the dipstick are placed in a "cell" of the Fotoscope and a light beam is passed through it. The amount of light that passes through is measured by photo-electricity and is shown on a meter, which tells, whether the oil is clean or dirty. so far has not imperiled the national welfare to warrant invoking the emergency pro visions of the Taft-Hartley Act. Under the law, the White House can name a fact-finding board and seek a court order banning any strIKe lor 80 days if it endangers the nation. No Shortage Soon . Carl W. Messinger, director of the Iron and Steel Division of .the Business and Defense Services Administration, said the steel strike would not cur tail vital defense production before September, if then. ' Messinger said he did not plan to review the question again before the end of Au gust and added: "I would be surprised if there is any evi dence of a shortage of steel for defense production for two or three or four weeks after that.", Meat Adulteration Clampdown Starts Portland (UPD -Meat inspec tors for the city of Portland have started to clamp down on the alleged adulterating of meat - primarily hamburger in Portland markets. Warrants for the arrest of five persons have been issued on charges of adulterating meat products. Three other persons have been arrested on the same charge during the past week. (A11 were charged with add ing -a preservative either benzoate or sulphite - to ham burger. Violators had been' only warned to cease doctoring meat until recently. Authori ties said, several market own ers refused to comply, and the legal action was decided upon. and complete care. They must be fed, bathed and turned in their cribs, and doctors must "be handy in case of emergency. Germs seem to have a head start on retarded children so that sanitary stand ards must be high. It is in this cottage that the hyorocephalics with excess water in their skull and micro ocephalics with heads so small that the brain cannot develop, are kept. It sometimes takes two hours to feed one of these children even on chopped and pureed food. Some of them progress until they can be fed in a chair. ' ' Encouraged to Help Selfs Even the seriously afflicted children are encouraged to help themselves. Walkers are provided and if a child cam learn to walk and feed him self he is transferred to anoth er cottage. If he cannot, he is taken to Patterson cottage, a new unit, where his physical, phycholog ical and social handicaps can be studied by experts. v Most of the children in this part of the institution can't take advantage of Fairview's extensive educational and vo cational opportunities but some enjoy craft and hobby activties. Special teachers are assigned to the severly retarded- V , Psychotic CAred For One wing of another cottage is assigned to children who are not only retarded but psychotic. Before tranquilizers were available, two-thirds of them had to be kept in re straint. Most can speak only one or two words. But even in the depressing situation, the children are en couraged in toilet training and taught to dress themselves if possible. They also have play porches and recreational equipment which they use in the mornings and afternoons. In all of Fairview's 16 cot tages a genume attempt ist made to return a child , to a near-normal life with special education and other treatmentr Some need only a little special training and leave the school to perform useful jobs; The others receive 24-hour care and are trained and encourag ed to perform as many useful and pleasant tasks as they can.
