payola investigators left a
brod hint to the television
networks today to improve
their programming or become
the possible target of a con
gressional inquiry
Rep. William H Springer
(ft-Ill.) served notice before
the ub-committee completed
its public hearinjis on payola
Tue.d-y that he, for one. in
tended to press for an investi
gation into TV programming
if the quality of shows isn't
improved.
People Said Concerned
Springer said his mail in
dicated the people back home
were more concerned about
this than they were about
rigged quiz shows or payola -
report which some other
subcommittee memberi also
have made.
Rep. Peter F. Mack Jr. (D
111.), who complained about
"trash" over the airways
Tuesday while questioning
ABC network President Leon

Mack said he felt it would
be "worth the time and ef

referred to rigged quiz shows,
rock and roll programs and
"shoot 'em up'' Westerns and

was because FCC member
were "reluctant regulators."

"The airways are owned by
the public," he said. "Con

we also want to place some

With its payola hearingg
over, the subcommittee next
will turn its attention to draft
ing legislation to make payola
a crime. It also is considering
a bill that would place the
networks under FCC regula
tion just as individual radio
and TV stations are.

Floods Fairbanks
By United Press International
The Chena river at Fair

evacuation of at least 45 per
sons. Twelve of those evacuated
were reported to be expectant
mothers who were taken

flooded out low areas of Fair

ing wns reported rising at the
rate of two inches per hour.

covered a state highway lead
ing into Fairbanks.
Most of the persons evacu
ated lived in outlying areas
of Fairbanks.
Tuesday, ice jams on both
the Chena river at Fairbanks
and the Tanana river at Nen
ana, Alaska, created danger
ous conditions. However, the
waters began receding early
in the evening but started ris
ing as the night wore on.
Boat Sunk
Huge chunks of ice ripped
several small pleasure boats
from their moorings at Fair
banks and 40-foot river boat
was sunk.
At Nenana, the flooding
Tanana river forced the evac
uation of many residents
whose homes had been isolat
ed by the water.
Army engineers rroin Ladd
Air Force Base near Fair
banks blasted for more than
six hours Tuesday in an un
successful effort to break the
Jam on the Chena.
The water surged through
several trailer courts and In

lot, on which 30 automobiles
had been left, at Fairbanks.

Beverly Aadland
Declares Mother
Ruining Her
Los Angeles fUPD Beverly
Aadland, 17, who had just
launched a singing career
when she was placed in Juve
nile Hall as a sex delinquent,
tearfully pushed aside her
mother in court and sobbed,
"You're ruining me, Mother."
The emotional scene came
Tuesday as Superior Judge
Allen Miller delayed render
ing a decision on whether
Beverly should be made a
ward of Juvenile Court. He
set May 11 to announce his
decison.
Wi39lad Avar
Mrs. Florence Adland, 53,
attempted to embrace her
slim daughter during the
court session but Beverly wig
gled away from her, crying:
"I don't ever want to see
you. Leave me alone."
Mrs. Adland had to be re
strained In her grief and led
from the courtroom.
"She didn t want to see
me," she sobbed.
Later she added, "They'va
brainwashed her."
To Study Recording
Miller granted the delay to
permit Mrs. Adland and her
attorney time to study a tape
recording held by the dislfloi
attorney's office in which she
purportedly details romances-
for-puy by Beverly.
Mrs. Adland was arrested
and ordered held for trial May
12 on the basia of the re
cording. She is accused of contribut
ing to Beverly's delinquency
by allegedly allowing the
teen-ager to make love to an
adult mule and drink intoxi
cants. Success of Local
Drive Is Noted
The success of the local
Mental Health campaign will
largely depend on the door-to-door
Bell Ringers march Mon
day night. May 9, Mrs. John
Dickson, Medford chairman, :
said today. j
"A successful Mental Health ;
campaign will assure adequate i
financing for research, educa-1
tion and service program of
the Mental Health Association
of Oregon," she said.
Nearly half of Oregon's hos
pital beds are occupied by the
mentally ill, and at least one
person in every 10 in this
country is suffering from some
form of mental illness needing
treatment.
More than 300,000 pieces of
literature were distributed to
schools and Interested groups
and individuals in Oregon last 1
year. The booklet "Mental
Illness A Guide to the Fam
ily" helped families of those
receiving treatment in Oregon
menial hospitals.
Other association protects
include films, which were
viewed by 12,500: Operation
Friendship encouraging visits
to mental hospitals: Christmas
gifts, ward adoption plan, pa
tient loan fund and a Friend
ship club.

Chief Executive
Said Determined
To Have Action
Washington - (LTD - Presi
dent Eisenhower backed up
I Ins renewed legislative de
! munds today with a threat to
I call Congress into special ses
I sion after the national politi
cal conventions unless he gets
the action he wants.
Republican lawmakers who
quoted Eisenhower on this ef-ft-t
differed on whether the
warning applied only to his
foreign aid program or to oth
er measures as well:
Directed ai Whola Program
Rep. Frank J. Becker (R
N.Y.) said that the President
raised the special session pos
sibility at a White House
breakfast with 17 members of
"the 83rd club" - Republican
congressmen who began their
House service in 1953.
Becker said the President
directed his comments to the
whole of the legislative pro
gram he outlined to Congress
in a special message Tuesday.
He said an adequate foreign
aid appropriation was one of
the things the President laid
he must have.
Similar Threats Common
Several other GOP law
makers said the President's
talk of a possible post-July
special session was directed
specifically to his request for
$4,175,000,000 in new foreign
aid funds for the year starting
July I.
Presidential talk about spe
cial sessions is not uncommon
about this time of the year,
when Congress gets within
sight of its adjournment date
with a lot of business not yet
done.
However, nothing usually
comes of these threats.
Appeared in Earnest
Becker, however, said the
President appeared in dead
earnest this time-even though
others said Eisenhower raised
the possibility only in an off
hand manner.
Chances appeared dim that
the President would get what
he wants from Congress this
year despite his new efforts to
prod the legislators into ac
tion. -
Fire Trucks in IV
Moved to New Hall
Cave Junction Fire trucks
were moved to the new fire
house recently since the hall is
complete except for a small
amount of painting.
The firemen's club room
also needs a refrigerator and
heating stove, both of which
are expected to be donated.
The site was donated by
Cave Junction Police Chief
Phil Kellar. Leveling of the
ground around the building
was done by Robert Martin.
Welders were Schuyler
Southwell, Inc., of Milwaukie
cement pouring was by Clyde
Knight's firm; plumbing was
done by Jack Williams and
wiring was contracted to Dave
Wilson.
Total retail sales in 1959
are estimated to have reached
a total of $215.6 billion - 7 to
8 per cent above the 1958
figure. Retailers believe in
the power of newspaper ad
vertising. Over the past sev
eral years they, together with
other local advertisers, invest
ed over $2 billion a year for
ads in their daily newspapers.
