Labor-Management
Ties Due Study
Salem - lUPl) - Sen. Harry
Boivin (D-Klamath Fa 1 1 s),
chairman of the Interim Com
mittee on Labor-Management
Relations, said Saturday the
Committee's meeting in Port
land next Friday will deal
with further study of a pro
posed bill for a new program

in Oregon.
The legislation has been utv
der consideration for quite
some time.
Leading off the discussion
will be Portland attorneys
Donald S. Richardson and
William F. Lubersky.
Vote for Kennedy
Said Vote for Tax
Spokane-IUPl) - Secretary of
Interior Fred A. Scaton, en
route to a mock political con
vention at Washington State
University, said Friday a vote
for Sen. John F. Kennedy is
a vote to increase taxes.
Scaton told a press confer
ence here that Kennedy said
he favored taxes and spend
ing after winning the West
Virginia primary.
Scaton said he was not a
candidate for vice president
on the Republican ticket, ad
ding, "It is unlikely the con
vention would settle on me
lor vice president."
Even then it will be a
tight squeak to get any action
on the project at this session,"
Porter added. "I have a bill
ready to file, however, and
I'll file it as soon as the re
port arrives at the Capitol. If
it does prove to be too late for
action this year, it will be
ready for action early in the
next Congress."
The bureau of reclamation
now estimates the total cost
of Agate dam and its various
c;ina!s and other related con
struction at $1,802,000. The
benefil-to-cost ratio "is excel
lent," estimated at 3.49 to 1
over a 100 year period, the
congressman said, or 2.76 to
1 over a 50-year period.
Earmarked For Recreation
About 820,000 is earmarked
for recreation facilities at the
reservoir and S27.100 for fish
facilities in connection with
the dam. Stored water would
be used to irrigate 1,810 acres
of presently dry land, Porter
said.
Referring to Mail Tribune's
Washington correspondent A.
Robert Smith's report of April
13, Porter said he has not in
troduced the Agate dam bill.
"I have said I would intro
duce it when the reclamation
bureau's report is complete
but I have said I will not
press for hearings and action
this year, even if there is time,
unless 1 am convinced that the
local support is so overwhelm
ing that there will be no ap
preciable harm to the Rogue
basin project," the congress
man explained. "In view of
my rather complex position it
is no wonder Mr. Smith may
have been misled. I only make
this correction in the inter
est of accuracy."
Myrtle Creek are expected to
attend the meeting, she said.
Parents of visually handi
capped children are invited to
all sessions although their
children may not he attending
the school for the blind.
