(UPI Telephoto) UN Settlement Refugee Problem Urged by Decisions United Nations settlement of Middle East refugee prob lems was urged by three fourths of Oregon's Great De cisions participants who voted on the topic, "Middle East What Hope for Stability?" Eighty-six per cent of Jack son county voters agree. Before voting, Great De cisions discussion group mem bers spent a week studying and discussing what U.S. pol icies in the Middle East will most effectively deal with the present situation. Two-thirds of the state-wide voters favored increasing U.S. information and propaganda activities, pressing for UN set tlement of Arab-Israeli boun dary disputes, and putting in creased emphasis on technical assistance. Support Planning Fifty-six per cent of the Or egonians who voiced their opinions wanted the U.S. to actively promote and support regional planning for econom ic development. Seventy-nine per cent of the Jackson coun ty voters felt the same way. Nearly half the voters wanted to channel more U.S. aid through the UN. More than one-third suggested co ordinating U.S. economic aid with Western European aid. Slightly more than half (55 per cent) of those who voted on the U.S. policy toward Af rica said to channel more aid through the UN. Thirty six per cent of Jackson coun ty's voters also urged working through the UN in this mat ter. The greatest state -wide agreement came when 81 per cent voted In favor of expand ing an exchange of persons program for training African leaders. Nearly three-fourths of the Oregon voters, and 86 per cent of Jackson county's vot ers wanted to prohibit racial discrimination in U.S. govern- Demos Criticize President's Plans Washington -IUPD- President Eisenhower's plan to prod Congress on its election-year legislative program has been criticized by the top Demo cratic leaders of the Senate and House. Senate Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas contended the President's Im patience was a sign of "pan ic." Speaker Sam Rayburn of Texas said Eisenhower is hol lering before he is hit. Johnson was plainly Irked by reports Eisenhower may air his criticism of the con gressional record thus far in a nationally televised speech. Republican leaders disclosed Tuesday that the President will send a special message tq Congress on the matter. Porter's Idea for Crater Lake Lift Slightly Favored T .. ft nnnrRT SMITH icatH "vm" nn4 O fins u I ...1 -!...... . .. . a By A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Washington Correspondent Washington - An opinion sampling of western Oregon residents shows them closely divided on the c o ntroversial idea of install ing a mechani cal chairlift in Crater Lake National Park to take tour ists down to the lake's edge. r, ii i RoBt. Smllh ney. uimics O. Porter, who has proposed the idea, put the question to 131,000 Oregonians and re ceived some 20,000 replies, question was: "Provided it was concealed by trees and thus entailed no disfigurement of the scenry, and no tax - funds were re quired, would you fi.vor an aerial gondola (i.e. an enclos ed chairlift) traveling from the rim to the surface of Cra ter Lake?" The replies showed 9,490 A. said "yes" and 8.698 salri "no." In a breakdown by counties of local sentiment reflected in the replies he received. Con gressman Porter's office offer ed what might be evidence of the effect of local editorial opinion. The strongest words against the chairlift have been uttered in the editorial columns of the Eugene Register -Guard and the Medford Mail Trib une. In both Lane and Jack son counties, where these two newspapers have their chief circulation, a majority of those polled were opposed to the project. Favored In Josephine On the other hand, the Grants Pass Courier has fa vored the idea, and so do a majority of residents of Jose phine county where the Cour ier is read. Two other news papers which have favored the chairlift concept - the Oregon Statesman and the Corvallis Gazette-Times - are not lo cated in Porter's congression al district but have some read ers in nearby Linn county, whose residents favored Por ter s scheme. On the only other purely local Oregon Issue, Porter's poll showed a majority favor ed his Oregon Dunes Seashore bill, as was indicated by a preliminary tabulation report ed recently. Complete tabula tion on this issue showed 10.273 or 57 per cent for it, and 7,909 or 43 per cent against it. Support for it was fairly evenly distributed throughout the 4th congres sional district, ranging from 65 per cent for it In Coos county to a low of 52 per cent Baker Boy Drowns In Irrigation Ditch Baker-flJTD - Three-year-old Lnren Baum. son of Mrs. Or ville Baum, was drowned Tuesday in a four-foot deep irrigation ditch here. The child's dog came home soaking wet and the mother reported her boy missing about 2:30 p.m. The body was recovered about two hours later. for it in Lane county, seat of the vocal opposition stemming from a Florence group. The only cause which Por ter champions that took a bad licking in the public opinion sampling was the matter of increasing some form of com munication with Red China. Oregonians Indicated they were about 2 to 1 against this idea. Closer In Coos Only on the coast In Coos county were the results closer. There the number opposed to increased communication with China were 1,040 or 58 per cent, those for it were 757 or 42 per cent. In Lane county, where the University of Ore gon has been the scene of much discussion of the enigma of Communist China, the re sults were 4.662 against and 2,574 for more contacts. Undaunted by adverse sen timent, Porter said he strong ly believed more communica tion with China is "essential if we are to have an effective safeguarded d i s armament -and that it will reduce the chances of World War III breaking out." He would like increased communication to start with an exchange of newspaper correspondents and a trade mission. Porter him self has been seeking federal court support for his conten tion that the State Depart ment should not restrict his passport right of access to Red China. The case is being ap pealed to the Supreme Court, following a decision against the congressman recently in the Court of Appeals here. On other Issues, a majority favored federal aid for educa tion but opposed raising taxes to pay for It; favored adding medical care to the social se curity program; ending farm price supports but compensat ing cranberry growers for losses suffered last fall; keep ing the draft, and reforming tax laws.
