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

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.
