Gunnar Attacks
Porter's Charges
Salem - (EPD - State Republi
can Chairman Peter Gunnar
said in a statement Thursday
that charges leveled by Rep.
Charles Porter (D-Ore.) re
garding Gov. Mark Hatfield
and the 1960 census were
. . . an insult to the intelli
gence of his constituents."
Porter had expressed fear
that a political patronage sys
tem would be used to select
census officials and enumer
ators in Oregon.
Gunnar replied "Porter
knew that in Oregon the Re
publican party has refused to
follow the shoddy patronage
practices of previous Demo
cratic administrations with
respect to the census."
Gunnar said Porter knew
"there were no political tests
for census workers."
The census story was aired
by A. Robert Smith, a Wash-
mgton correspondent for
Northwest newspapers.
Sen. Richard Neuberger (D
Ore.) has suggested that school
teachers be used to help out
in the census taking.
Gunnar said he wrote Gov.
Hatfield assuring him there
would be no political patron
age in hiring census workers.
Neuberger Plan
Hit by Gunnar
Grants Pass - (UPD - Republi
can State Chairman Peter
Gunnar Thursday criticized
Sen. Richard L. Neuberger's
proposal that the United
States spend $66 million pav
ing the Alaska highway.
Gunnar told a GOP lunch-
t eon gathering that paving the
highway through Canada
"will probably cost many Ore
gon sailors, longshoremen,
truckers and railroaders their
jobs as Alaskan trade is divert
ed away from Portland and
Seattle." H called it a "boon
doggling" project.
"Sen. Neuberger apparently
does not care that his latest
irresponsible proposal for rat-
holing the hard-earned dollars
of American citizens will hurt
his fellow Oregonians by very
effectively sending the boom
ing Alaska. trade away from
the Northwest," Gunnar said.
Gunnar called the highway
plan "a wilderness freeway
which leads nearer to the
prosperous eastern trade centers."
The first chamber of com
merce in America was char
tered in New York City in
1768.
TANK THIEF
Monrovia, Calif. (CPA - An
M74 National Guard tank was
moved out into the street

covered with a burned-out engine.

Ferry Boat Saves
Four From Plane
Seattle (CPU Four persons
were rescued by a passing
ferry boat late Thursday night
when their four-place plane
went down in Puget Sound.
Dwane Tjomsland, 42, Los
Angeles building contractor,
said he was letting down for
a landing at Boeing Field
when suddenly he felt the
plane hit something.
"I looked at the altimeter
and it read zero," he sad. "I
couldn't believe it."
Tjomsland, his wife, and
their two children, Lynn, 23
months, and Kenny, 6, got
out of the cabin and stood on
the wing of the plane as it
began to sink.
Tjomsland shot off three
parachute flares. The ferry
Tillicum, en route to the Col
man Dock here, stopped and
picked up the four.
Tjomsland had left Anchor
age, Alaska, earlier in the
evening.

Quotes From the News
By UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL
New York-Boris Kolodyozhn, first secretary of the Soviet
Embassy, criticizing American courts as he put the four young
Kozmin brothers aboard a plane for Russia to rejoin their
parents:
"American justice detained them for five years. They
were taken from their parents. We are glad to deliver them
back lo their parents:
New York-The Rev. C. Kilmer Myers, conducting in New
York's richest and most famous church the funeral for a 15-year-old
Negro girl killed because of a gang fight Sunday
night:
"If you cared about her, then let this be your memorial to
her. Let there be no more sudden death in the streets of the
lower east side."
London-Novelist A. J. Cronin, complaining that after a
23-year fight the Sovie government would not even pay him
in caviar the royalties for three million copies of his book
sold in the USSR:
"Meanwhile, I receive from my Russian readers an enor
mous effusive fan mail and requests for autographs and pho
tographs. This is undoubtedly the unkindest cut of all."
Moscow-Leonard Bernstein, conductor of the New York
Philharmonic orchestra, replying to a Soviet music critic who
called him "cocky" and immodest for interrupting a con
cert to explain modern music and for repeating one compo
sition. "Repetition of it had been demanded by the audience
their rhythmic clapping meant 'again.' So in my very best
Russian I asked if they wanted the piece again and, when
they responded with cheers, I played it."

Reorganization
Eyed by Board
Salem - (UPD - The State
Board of Education is not go
ing to look kindly on school
district reorganization plans
which allow small districts to
stay out.
The Board voted 3-2 to re
ject a Newberg area proposal
to make most of the present
union high school district into
a reorganized district, but
without two elementary dis
tricts northwest and west of
Newberg.
Purpose of the reorganiza
tion law is to make districts
large enough for a 12-grade
education and eliminate over
lapping authorities.
In rejecting the Newberg
proposal, the Board felt it
could not approve isolating
small districts. '
Deputy Superintendent of
Public Instruction James L.
Turnbull said the board's ac
tion was one of major policy
importance. But he said he did
not think it would block re
organization which is in pro
gress throughout the state.

and satisfactorily controlled
with the help of new glasses,
should immediately see a good
ophthalmologist. People with
failing vision, when not help
ed by glasses, should not keep
going from store to store, get
ting new pairs which also do
not help.
Usually, an optometrist will
advise such a person to go
quickly to an ophthalmologist
who will measure the tension
of the eyeball with a tonome
ter. This is the one sure test.
Also, an expert often will di
agnose glaucoma, or suspect
it, the minute he looks into
the eye. A few persons who
are coming down with glau
coma will feel pain in an eye
or they will see halos around
lights, but, as Dr. Everett R,
Veirs says in his new book,
So You Have Glaucoma'
(Gruene and Stratton, New
York), one must not depend
on these symptoms, because
many persons rapidly lose
their sight without much, if
any, warning. By the time
they know they are in trouble
it may be too late to do much
for them. Because of this, and
because occasionally my eye
feels uncomfortable or my
vision gets a bit fuzzy, the
other day I went and had my
ophthalmologist check the
tension in my eyes. Fortun
ately, it was low. Then he
looked into my eyes and cheer
ed me by saymg that I have
no arteriosclerosis or harden
ing of the little arteries.
When recognized in time,
glaucoma often can be kept
under control. If an ophthal
mologist tells a man that he
must put drops in his eyes
every day, the man had bet
ter do it! He cannot afford to
go, as some people now do,
to a quack so that he can be
given Bates' eye exercises! If
he does that, he had better
start saving money for a See
ing Eye dog and a white cane
Everyone with glaucoma
would do well to buy Dr,
Veirs' book. He tells people
with this disease not to drink
a lot of coffee or tea; not to
drink large volumes of fluid;
not to live constantly with
sun-glasses on, as many neur
otic people do, not to smoke
too much; and not to get into
dithers.

Favored Region
The Pacific coast and the

list of preferred domestic and
foreign travel objectives of
over 2,000 members of the
American Automobile association.
The Oregon State Motor as
sociation reported the results
of a poll conducted through
affiliated motor clubs AA
found that 43.6 per cent of the
voters chose the Pacific coast,
leading all others by a wide
margin. The mountain states
were preferred by 17.7 per
cent and the south Atlantic by
17.1 per cent.
Participating AAA mem
bers residing on the Pacific
coast would prefer vacation
ing closer to home, according
to the survey. Compared with
the 54.8 per cent of New Eng
enders who would go to the
Pacific coast, only 9 per cent
of participating residents on
the coast would travel to New
England.
Asked for preference of des

Montgomery, Ala. (UPD
The camellia has officially
ousted the golden rod as Ala
bama's state flower. Gov.

that the golden rod caused
hay fever.

Oregon Good Place For Fever Sufferers
Oregon is being recom
mended to hay fever sufferers
as a vacation area during late
summer when they are most
uncomfortable at home, ac
cording to the Oregon State
Motor association.
The U.S. public health serv
ice recommends a change of
location for the allergy vic
tims during the August-September
period when hay fever
is most widespread.
American Automobile asso
ciation is suggesting to trav
elers that Oregon offers Cen
tennial activities while also
having favorable conditions
for hay fever relief. Other
western states as favorable
are Arizona, California, Ne
vada, Washington (except the
Wenatchee valley), New Mex
ico, Utah and Wyoming.
