Stevenson's Supporters
Feel Nomination Coming
Los Angeles - (UPD - Adlal
. Stevenson's partisans
claimed today that the rous
ing welcome lie got at the
Democratic National Conven
tion showed he would be
nominated a third time for
the presidency.
Angered backers of Sen.
John F. Kennedy cried "foul,"
however.
Sen. Mike Monroney (D
Okla.), chief strategist In the
'draft Stevenson" camp, con
tended Jubilantly that the
demonstration showed that
the delegates would settle on
Stevenson-Kennedy ticket
on the fourth or fifth ballot.
Ohio Gov. Michael DiSalle,
a Kennedy lieutenant, charg
ed that Stevenson backers ap
parently had packed the seats
In the lower gallery of the
Sports Arena. He said they
were trying to "stampede"
the convention through the
demonstration.
"Sombody should answer
lor that," DiSalle declared
The Kennedy camp split
over whether Stevenson's dra
matic entrance showed he was
or wasn't a candidate. He has
repeatedly refused to declare
his candidacy but said tie
would bow to a draft.
DiSalle said it was a tra
dition for a candidate not to
go to the convention floor
until after a nominee is pick
ed and therefore he assumed
"Stevenson no longer is a
candidate."
But Kennedy's brother,
Robert, said that while he had
n't thought previously that
Stevenson was a candidate,
the events of Tuesday con
vinced him the twice-defeated
presidential candidate was
trying anew.
Robert Kennedy minimized
"the importance of the recep
tion accorded Stevenson. He
said that if any of the candi
dates entered the hall, they
would receive a similar ovation.
Extensive Use of
Howard Prairie Is
Noted by Director
Howard Prairie reservoir is
being used extensively by the
public this summer, Robert
Haworth, county and city
parks and recreation director,
told the Jackson county
parks and recreation commit
tee Monday night.
No definite boundaries for
water-skiing and fishing have
had to be set up so far this
season, he added.
Haworth said the big prob
lem in the Howard Prairie
recreation area is road dust.
The contractor is still work
ing on connecting roads.
A county road behind the
lake is oiled up to the last
mile, he said, and is in "good
shape" to the intersection
with Howard Prairie and dam
site road- This is an all-
weather road, he added.
Comparatively few water-
skiers are using the lake, and
only on week ends, Haworth
said. . Number of fishermen
using it all week is fairly
steady. So far there has been
no conflict between skiers
and fishermen. No hard and
fast control program has been
set up this summer, he added.
Fewer Skiers
Fewer skiers will use the
lake as the water continues to
decrease because of irrigation
needs. About 12,000 acre feet
will be drawn out before the
summer is over; he said, or
11.2 feet vertical draw down,
Construction of a water
system to the reservoir area
was scheduled to start yester
day, Haworth reported. The
contract calls for completion
jn 60 days or by the end of
August. The water storage
tank will be ready in 30 days,
he said-
Camp stoves, picnic tables
and garbage disposal cans arc
already in place, and John-
ston stores have constructed
one of two mobile stands and
are building a floating dock
. lor the concession.
A national park service of
ficial, following an Inspection,
has agreed that the south of
of the lake is the best area for
organizational camping area.
This will be available to all
groups including youth organ
izations, Haworth said.

said.
In Burma there are few
roads, Kadoe said. Logging is

an expected aggressive drive

nancing and personal drive.

"running so fast he couldn't
be caught" by his less active
opponents.

Assessors Call
Parley To Tackle
Trailer House Tax
Salem - lUrD-Tho legislative
committee of the county as
sessors of Oregon has called
a meeting here Thursday with
the State Department of Mo
tor Vehicles to thresh out
problems the assessors face
involving Oregon's now Trail
er House Tax Law.
Robert Kline of Newport,
Lincoln county assessor and
chairman of the committee,
said that the law, effective
last Jan. 1, Is "vague and
needs amending."
The Motor Vehicles Depart
ment collects a property tax
on trailer houses in the form
of a license fee, then gives the
money to counties where the
trailer is located for distribu
tion to the appropriate taxing
district within the county.
Inadequate Address!
Kline said some of the
problems assessors have run
into are inadequate addresses
for trailers, absentee owners
and whether certain trailers
on foundations classified as
realty.
Kline said that right now
he is holding $5,000 in license
fees but he is not certain yet
which taxing districts in Lin
coln county should get the
money.
Trailer owners also pay a
registration fee as in years
past.
The meeting will be in the
Marion county courthouse
starting at 10 a.m. Motor Ve
hicles will be represented by
Robert Holland, assistant at
torney general attached to
that department.

that the primary law docs not
commit me to vote for Ken
nedy. These are very critical
times and what is for the
benefit of the whole nation
will benefit my state also."
Mrs. Grant's announcement
brought a charge from Mrs.
