Capitol Memo Demo Convention Will Be Departure From Past in State By DOUGLASS GRIPP Salem 7 IUPD The Oregon State Democratic platform convention here Jan. 29-30 will be a departure from the past. Party officials say. they know of no other such state wide Democratic conclave in Oregon history, although Dr. Cecil Author of Magazine Article Ashland - "The Importance uf Continued Study" is the title of an article by Dr. Her bert Cecil, Southern Oregon college music staff member, appearing in the current issue of the Oregon Music Educa tor- Stressing the need for con tinual self - improvement of the music educator through formal schooling, activity in professional organiza t i o n s, and keeping abreast of cur rent literature in the field, Dr. Cecil points out a number of ways by which a teacher may improve his own musi cianship as well. PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE Clennon King, a Negro history professor of Miami Beach, Fla., who spent 12 days in a mental institution for trying to enter the University of Mississippi, has announced that he is a candidate for Presi dent. He said he is a candidate of the Independent Afro American Unity Liberation Party and that he has chosen Vice President Richard Nixon to run as vice president with him. " (UPI Telephoto) some other states have had them. About 507 delegates are ex pected. Headquarters will be the Marion Motor Hotel There will be big state Demo crats and little ones. National Chairman Paul Butler will be there, and so will Sen, Wayne Morse. ' Other Democratic members of the congressional delega tion have been invited but it is not known so far if any others will be able to make it. Reasons for Meeting .. Why has this convention been called? Here are some reasons list ed by State Sen. Robert Straub (D-Springfield), state chairman: 1. Let the public know the distinctions be tween the Democratic and Re publican parties, what the people can expect from Demo crats who are elected. 2.. Determine what the is sues are.. . 3. Let Democrats at large know how those elected by the party feel on various is sues. ' 4. Provide candidates with the issues that the entire party is behind. 5. Serve as a rallying point to inspire workers to hustle for the party. 6. Get over the party story the public relations factor. '. Straub summarizes by say ing the convention will be "a device by which elected party officials and others can dis cuss, argue and elaborate on the issues that face the peo ple of the state of Oregon. More Are Planned "This interplay is going to be very desirable in develop ing broader and more respon sible viewpoints in all our minds," he said. The State Central Commit tee approved the idea of the convention in 1958. Straub says the success of county platform conventions so far is hoped to be an inkling to the success of .the state meeting. The Oregon county conven tions, also unique, took, place in Roseburg in December and in Eugene last week end. Another is planned at Coos Bay this coming week end. Next year the party hopes for a convention in every county and perhaps a state convention every two years. In defining "the issues," the convention will stick mostly to state problems, Straub says, although some closely-related federal prob lems will be involved. For ; this reason, Straub doesn't think the state plat form will be carried" in toto to the national convention next summer.- "But it no doubt will be similar," he adds.

The Jap anese were still, negotiating with Hull when the Japanese launched their Dec. 7, 1941, attack on Pearl Harbor.

(UPI Telephoto) Estimates based on observa tions made during the Geo physical Year indicate that there is about 40 per cent more ice on the earth than was previously believed. About 90 per cent of it is in Antarctica. Of all the world's car, 63 per cent are manufactured in the U. S. In order to inform the public of their latest de velopments, the automotive industry spent over $159 mil lion last year in national newspaper advertising.

And daily newspaper circulation has been keeping pace - it has nearly quadrupled in the past 60 years. Japanese Signature on Treaty Marks End of Long Road Back Washington - (UPD - Prime Minister Nobusuke K i s h i ' s mission to Washington to sign a new security pact on a basis of sovereign equality marks the end of the long road back for Japan from the depths of defeat. It calls to mind, by con trast, another mission from Tokyo slightly more than 18 years ago which is identified in history with Japan's disas trous decision to plunge into war against the United States. It was in November, 1941, that Saburo Kurusu was sent to Washington to spin out dis cussions with President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Secretary of State Cordell Hull while Japan's militarists perfected their plan to strike at Pearl Harbor. Kurusu and the "Japanese ambassador to Washington, Kichisaburo No mura, held their initial meet ing with Roosevelt and Hull on Nov. 17. Still 'Negotiating' They were still ostensibly negotiating with Hull when the Japanese launched their Dec. 7 attack on America's Pacific bastion at 7:50 a.m. Honolulu time (1:20 p.m. Washington time). One hour after Japanese bombs began falling on Pearl Harbor, the two envoys from Tokyo called on Hull and handed him a long list of American actions allegedly aimed at throttling Japan. The Japanese document, prepared in Tokyo, still ddd not contain any declaration of war but merely said that Tokyo con sidered it "impossible to reach agreement through further negotiations." Hull, already advised of the attack on Pearl Harbor, an swered the Japanese in a tone of repressed fury. "In all my 50 years of pub lic service I have never seen a document that was more crowded with infamous false hoods and distortions - infa mous falsehoods and distor tions on a scale so huge that HILTS Sales Manager Named By MRS.

Be cause of the increased inter est in travel today, steamship companies inform people of their accommodations through newspaper advertising - they did 32.1 per cent more in 1958 than 1957. I never imagined until today that any government on this planet was capable of uttering them," Hull said. Foes Become Allies Then he showed the Japan ese the door. The era since' the Kurusu mission encompasses the bit ter Pacific war, followed by a period during which Japanese-American relations have taken a full turn to bring the one-time enemies into closest military collaboration and economic cooperation.
