    Sen. Morse Urges
Plugging Law in
Hauling Explosives
By A. ROBERT SMITH
Mail Tribune Washington
Correspondent
Washington (Special) - Sen.
Wayne Morse (D-Ore,) has
urged congressional action on
"a bill which
would plug a
loop hole in
the regula
tions on trans
portation o f
explosives a
loophole
which he says
b r o u ght on
l the Roseburg
A fcobt smttb disaster.
The bill is S.1806, sponsor
ed by Sen. Warren G. Magnu
son (D-Wash.) and recom
mended by the Interstate
Commerce Commission. No
hearings have been held on it
as yet in Magnuson's Senate
Commerce Committee.
Morse said the bill would
make all federal regulations
covering shipment of explo
sives apply equally to private
carriers and common carriers.
He noted that the truck which
blew up in Roseburg was not
being operated as a common
carrier, and therefore was not
subject to the safety regula
tions set out in federal law.
"The Pacific Powder Co. of
Tenino, Wash., was not oper
ating the truck as a common
carrier; thefefore it was not
subject to the safety regula
tions of common carriers,"
Morse said, noting that it was
a company-owned truck.
May Be Cheaper
"It may be cheaper to
transport a truckload of dan
gerous dynamite and ammon
ium nitrate by private con
tractor, by a private truck,
than by a common carrier,"
observed Morse. "But Con
gress cannot justify any such
exception in interstate com
merce. That is what the ICC
has been trying to get us to
see, I find upon investigation.
The Commission has been
warning us that unless the so
called private trucks are
brought under the safety rules
and regulations with respect
to explosives and combusti
bles, we might very well ex
pect to have happen again
what happened in Roseburg."
Morse recounted, in a Sen
ate speech, ' the sequence of
events at Roseburg how the
driver drove into Roseburg,
parked the truck, set the
brakes and locked the cab be
fore going to a hotel.
"In the case of a common
carrier truck carrying explo
sives or combustibles, the
federal law requires that the
truck go around all towns,"
Morse stated! "Even during
the war, when tons and tons
and tons of explosives were
transported by truck in the
area of Portland, it was neces
sary for the trucks transport
ing the explosives to be met
by inspectors, by whom they
were guided around the city,
to their places of delivery,
Would Be Illegal
"Yet we are now permitting
these private trucks, operated
by companies and are trans
porting their own explosives
with their own trucks to go
right through our towns, to
be parked wherever the
drivers please, to be locked
up, to have the brakes set, and
to be left unguarded while
the drivers are otherwise oc
cupied." Morse said if the pending
bill bad been enacted into law
sooner, the Roseburg disaster
would not have happened be-

cause the truck -would not
have been near the burning
building, for the simple rea
son that it would not have
been legal for the driver of
truck even to have driven the
truck into that arA of Rose
burg, let alone park it there
and leave it."
The new bill carries penal
ties of up to $1,000 or up to a
year in prison for simple vio
lations of ICC regulations on
explosives, or if a. violation
causes death or injury to any
person the penalty goes up to
$10,000 or up to 10 years in
prison. .

Family
Council
Arlene J.: I'm tired of trying
to please Ken's parents.
Kenneth J. We must try to
cheer them at this time.
Arlene J.: My husband and
I are 23 and 24 respectively.
We have been married nearly
three years and are fairly hap-
py-outside of the in-law prob
lem. Ken's parents are the prob
lem his mother particularly.
She is yery critical of me. She
has told me in no uncertain
terms that it's time I had a
baby. She doesn't approve of
working wives and always
has something nasty to say
whenever my job is men
tioned. I feel that she doesn't love
me as 'a daughter and I don't
see why I am supposed to
shower her with affection the
way my husband seems to
want. My parents are far
more up-to-date and interest
ing to talk to than his, but
Ken says we have to spend
more time with his parents.
I am tired of trying to please
them. '
" Kenneth J.: Arlene sets
up this competition about
whose parents should get more
attention. It s pretty silly and
would be funny if there
weren't some really serious
factors involved. -
My parents are still trying
to recuperate from the loss of
my older sister only two years
ago. They are lonely and quite
unhappy and I think we owe
it to them to spend as much
time as possible with them to
cheer them. Arlene's parents
still have two of the younger
children at home with them
They aren't in need of any
cheering.
Before we were married,
Arlene used to complain about
her own parents, but now she
talks about how perfect her
parents are and how awful
mine are. It's true my mother
is tactless at times, but she
means no harm.
The Council: We hold no
brief for Kenneth's mother's
interference in the personal
affairs of the young couple.
Her comments are in bad taste
and out of order.
This, however, doesn't mean
that Arlene is justified in
making snide criticisms of her
husband's parents and taking
a huffy attitude. It would be
far better if she spoke up and
told her mother-in-law in a re
spectful manner that the ques
tion of children and of her
working are personal matters
and that she prefers not to dis
cuss them.
Arelene shows some resent
ment of the fact that Ken
neth's mother doesn't love her
as a daughter, but she shows
little inclination to give of
her love as a daughter. Pos
sibly Arlene had hoped to be
come a kind of substitute
daughter to her in-laws after
the death of her own. She
should recognize she is ex
pecting a little too much. Yet
she might have tried to offer
some consolation in the form
of real sympathy and thought
fulness of her in-laws.
Like many immature indiv
iduals, Arelene has transfer
red her beefs against her own
parents to her in-laws. She
demands that parents be with
out faults, that they live up to
her ideals. But she is a lot
less strict in her standards for
her own behavior.
Kenneth is justified in bis
desire to give his parents some
special attention to this diffi
cult period. Arlene should not
allow childish petulance to
stand in the way of showing
her love for her husband by
putting herself out for his par
ents. It may net her some re
wards in terms of her own
gair in emotional stature.

Rockefeller
Brings Bride To
United States
New York (UPD Steven
Rockefeller brought his Nor
wegian Cinderella bride back
today to the city where she
once toiled as a maid in his
parents' home.
The happy young million
aire and his wife the former
Anne Marie Rasmussen, ar-j
rived by plane this morning
to begin an American honey
moon that will last a month
or more. Steven said he
hoped he and his bride could
give newsmen the slip.
"We would like to have the
next month to ourselves," he
said.
Site Not Confirmed
A source close to the Rocke
feller family said the couple
might honeymoon on the
Rockefeller ranch at Jackson
Hole, Wyo., or at the family
summer home at Seal Harbor,
Maine. But neither Steven nor
his father, Gov. Nelson A.
Rockefeller of New "York,
would confirm this.
"They're going to disappear,
with your cooperation," the
governor told the 30 newsmen
who gathered at Idlewood Air
port to interview the honey-
mooners. I certainly think
that they are entitled to some
privacy without the family or
the press trailing them."
Anne Marie, attractively
dressed in a two-piece black
shantung suit, was too shy to
answer -the reporters ques
tion, except that she was "very
much pleased" to return to
New York.
Access To Social Whirl
The smiling bride will now
have access to some of. New
York's most exclusive social
circles.
Steven and Anne Marie
were accompanied here from
Norway by his father and
mother and sister, Mrs. Ann
Pierson . of . Chicago. The
Rockefeller party was th last
group to leave the plane when
it landed after a flight from
Copenhagen, Denmark.
