here Friday that he was in
volved In business between
the U. S. Department of Agri
culture's Portland office of
the Commodity Stabilization
Service, which Corey direct
ed, and the Three State Ware
house Co., in which he was a

Corey's comments came as
lie took the witness stand in
his own defense to answer
charges he violated the fed

almost impossible.

ceipts from the county would
be used to provide this mini
mum educational program
within the county.
Payment! Included
These would include the 25
per cent of federal forest re
serve payments which now are
received by local school dis
tricts and 25 per cent of the
county receipts from O and C
lands.
"Since these O and C pay
ments are in lieu of taxes, the
committee feels there would
be some justice in school dis
tricts receiving a portion of
these revenues for the reduc
tion of properly taxes," the
statement said.
Larry Marschat, director
of research and apportionment
for the State Department of
Education, said that if the pro
posed system had been in ef
fect during 1959-60, about
one-third of the school dis
tricts would have needed to
levy additional funds. The
other two-thirds of the dis
tricts would have been able
to decrease their property
tax. ,
The committee continued
discussion of the proposal on
Saturday.
Reorganisation Explained
Other speakers on Saturday
were Keith Hockersmith,
chairman of the Jackson coun
ty reorganization committee,
who explained aspects of the
Jackson county reorganiza
tion.
Also heard by the commit
tee was Ray J, Schumaker,
Jackson county assessor, who
presented his five-point tax
relief program.
On Friday the committee
heard Freeman Homer, direc
tor of finance and adminis
tration, report on proposals
by the governor's committee
on reorganization. Among the
proposals was the suggestion
to appoint rather than elect
the state superintendent of
public instruction.
Other groups speaking be
fore the committee included
the Oregon Education asso
ciation and the Oregon School
Boards association.
Comideri Proposal
The committee is consider
ing a proposal which would
remove school administrators
from tenure and would give
the school board more power
to dismiss teachers protected
by tenure.
OEA spokesmen stated that
they believed in a strong ten
ure law and outlined a pro
posal to make education more
of a profession which could
police ilsolf.
Robert Sabin, of the Uni
versity of Oregon, presented
a report on the intermediate
unit (county school office)
which indicated that the role
of the intermediate unit is
changing with consolidation.
But, it was pointed out, the
intermediate unit has been a
part of the school system for
100 years and can not be
done away with overnight.
Another University of Ore
gon report, on the effect of
school district reorganization
in selected districts, was giv
en by George Timmons, re
search assistant.

Less Adamant on
Civil Rights
Portland-IUPD - Southerners
are becoming less adamant
in their battle against civil
rights, according to members
of the platform committees of
both the Democratic and Re
publican national conventions.
Miss Gladys Everett, a Dem
ocrat, and Shirley Field, a
Republican, were speakers
Friday at a luncheon meeting
of the Portland City club.
In detailing the opposition
of the southern states to the
civil rights plank in the Dem
ocratic platform, Miss Everett
said some of the fire has gone
out of the people of the South.
"They see the handwriting
on the wall," she said.
She said they must protest
out of loyalty to the people
who elected them. "But some
of the fervor has died down
and they are going through
the motions of protest for the
record." t
Both Miss Everett and Miss
Field detailed the immense
amount of work which goes
into the formation of a na
tional party platform. Miss
Field pointed out that the pre
liminary work began a year
ago with public meetings held
throughout the country.

of equipment were called
upon to fight the fire.
The Civil Defense head

Hatfield Praises
Selection by Nixon
Salem-IUPII-Gov. Mark Hal
field Friday praised Vice Pres
ident Richard M. Nixon's se
lection of state Sen. Anthony
Yturri of Ontario as Nixon's
campaign manager for the !
slate of Oregon.
Yturri was named as Nix
on's Oregon manager Friday
after Wendell Wyatt of As
toria resigned. Wyatt said the
pressure of personal business
would keep him from giving
full energies to the Nixon
campaign effort.
Hatfield said the choice of
Yturri "is another indication
of the vice president's inter
est in our state." He added
the Yturri's selection reflect
ed Nixon's desire to be kept
"fully informed about Ore
gon's progress and potential."
