Honesty Said
Chief Safeguard
In Oregon Voting
Salem -flJPD- The principal
safeguard in Oregon against
stuffing the ballot box at the
next election is the honesty
of the individual . voter and
the alertness of election
boards in challenging voters,
according to Attorney Gener
al Robert Y. Thornton.
His comment was made in
the wake of an opinion which
solves some knotty problems
for voters and county clerks
and also points up some am
biguities in Oregon's election
laws.
The opinion held that:
... A registered elector
must cast his ballot in his
own precinct in order to vote
for county officers.
Certificate Not Required
. . . Voting outside the pre
' cinct in which he is regis
tered, a registered elector
with or without a certificate
of registration may vote in
any county ot the state for
state officers or congressmen,
but not for county officers.
The law does not make a
certificate of registration a
requirement for voting out
side the voter's own precinct
It states only that a voter may
obtain a certificate of regis
tration, but not that he must
obtain one.
That means that if a voter
is willing to lie about his
registration, and the election
boards are careless about
their records, a voter with a
fast car theoretically could
cast ballots in several differ
ent counties on election day,
Thornton said. "
Fluoridation
Said Gaining
i ......
In Popularity
New York - (Science Service)-
Fluoridation of commu
nity water1 supplies is becom
ing increasingly popular
throughout the world, a Brit
ish dentist said here.
Seven European countries
are already adding fluorides
to their water supplies, Dr.
W. Stewart 'Ross, London,
said in a panel discussion at
the centennial .meeting of the
American Dental Association
here. . .. ...
The countries are Belgium,
The Netherlands, Sweden,
Russia, Czechoslovakia, Great
Britain and the German Fed
eral Republic. Interest in
fluoridation runs high in
South America and 'Europe,
he said. However, not all
countries are adding fluorides
to their water supplies.
Others Expected To Follow
The British dentist pre-
- dieted that once water fluori
dation is instituted on a na
tional basis in one or two
countries in Europe where the
maioritv of inhabitants get
. their water "on tap," other
countries will follow suit.
One reason the adoption of
fluoridation has taken so long
in Europe is that Europeans
believe it necessary to conduct
their own investigations into
the decay-inhibiting proper
ties of fluorides.
Despite the uniform results
obtained in widespread U. S.
studies, investigations are
- being conducted in Europe be
cause drinking , and eating
habits vary from . country to
country and democratic feel
ing exists which tells Euro
peans "to let us see. for our
selves." In South America
Another panelist, Dr. Juan
Chaneles, Buenos Aires, said
that several South American
countries have decided - to
adopt fluoridation, which he
described as "one of the few
rational procedures in the
fight against dental caries."
The procedure is being
tested in several small towns
in Brazil, Chile, Colombia,
Paraguay, and Venezuela.
Adoption of fluoridation, in
South American countries has
been slow due- to a lack of
necessary funds, and the ur
gency of sanitary problems, he
said.

By ELMER C. WALZER
UPI Financial Editor
New York - (DPD - In just
about two weeks, New York
City will have its first motel
with on premises parking and
all the other characteristics

tion, jv- .

- Downing
M angement
Corp. believe
it will, it will, be the first of
a series to be constructed in
big cities of the Eastern Sea
board and Middle West.
The Skyline. Motor Inn, as
it is called, is located in West
Central Manhattan Island, a
few blocks from the Hudson
river "where the transatlantic
liners moor and within easy
access to theaters and other
attractions of the city. It also
is easily . accessible by high
ways and other means of travel-to
and . from New -York
City. ... .. m;
The five-story structure will
contain -130 rooms; and 130
parking spaces for the guests.
It will . include ' restaurants,
coffeee shop, bar, and outdoor
dining terrace.;.' Rooms . are
slated to run from $12 to $16
per day with no charge for
parking or any other service.
The guests can get their own
ice just' as tthey do in the
country motels) and with no
tipping. - . v .-. ' f , .'
Future Plans
Harold Steinberg, president
of the Downing Corporation,
says he has plans for several
other motels in central loca
tions in big cities. He did not
divulge the names of the cit
ies because of the fact that
deals are not .yet closed for
the. land. He also is consider
ing another similar sized mo
tel .in N.ew York City in an
other location. -
"The visitor to New York
or any other big city," says
Steinberg, "wants a place
where he can stay a few days
and visitthe" places- of inter
est without worrying about a
place to keep his car and
without the high costs that
accompany living at hotels. ..
"Reaction to the Skyline
Motor Inn has been- so en-:
thusiastic that the Downing
Management Corp. already is
planning for a-second mid
Manhattan motor inn, and we
hope these will be the nucleus
of a chain of in-city motels
Minuleman Missile
Test Successful
Washington (UPD - The Air

successfully test fired a full
sized model, of its Minuteman
Intercontinental ballistic mis

launching pad. -
The test,' conducted at Ed
wards Air Force Base, Calif.',
Tuesday, was a significant
step toward perfection of a
weapon which can be launch
ed instantly from under
ground or from mobile posi
tions on railroad cars.
It rose only a few hundred
feet into the air from its un
derground "silo" since it was
tethered for the test.

Steinberg said the present
pjans call for motels in areas
where there are no seasonal
problems. None is planned
any farther south than Vir
ginia because the resort and
other, sections already, are
well provided with niojels, he
said.' " , : .
" Steinberg believes that this
idea of motor inns in the cen
ter of big cities will develop
into a trend throughout the
nation. : - - J "
This type of development
fits into a plan of many cities
in trying to lure back some
of the tourists they have lost
in recent years to poor road
design. The ribbons of concrete-
state roads - often run
to the edge of a town and then
leave the tourist to wind 'his
weary way through a maze of
streets to his destination.
Today the roads are being
planned to carry the tourists
through the cities and hence
the need; has developed for
new, motor mns so that they
can ! visit . the larger -metropolises
.. - - .
These inns are big building
business, too. The Skyline is
being built at a cost of $2
million.
