"Th Store of a Thousand Thoughtful Gifts" Solons Expected To Take Careful Foreign Aid Look Washington-dlPU-Senate Re publican Leader Everett M. Dirksen predicts that the next Congress would look with "a careful eye" to see how the U.S. foreign aid program can be cut down. The Illinois senator also said it was "entirely possible" that Congress would "reap praise" American tantts on foreign imports. Serious Study Dirksen said that both ac tions would get serious study as possible ways to stem the flow of dwindling U.S. gold reserves abroad. He indicated that steps might be taken to require the purchase of more foreign aid goods in this country by na tions helped under the pro gram. "But whatever it is-mili-tary, economic, economic de velopment, loans and other wise," Dirksen said, "certain ly it's going to have careful scrutiny." Dirksen said there was great interest in Congress on tariffs and the influence of foreign competition in the American market. Good Case Seen There are U.S. industries, he said, who feel they have been "hurt and I think they could make a good case." "Certainly in the whole field of textiles, manufactur ed products, machine tools, 'small items that are manufac tured in Belgium, Germany, Holland, Japan, England, Italy and elscwhere-that problem is going to take on some real dimension in the next L.on gress," Dirksen said. The GOP Senate leader said he believed a non-governmental commission of busi ness, labor and farm repre- sentatives-"those who are af fected and hurf'-should be set up to study the problem. Given enough time, Dirksen said, a group such as this prob ably would eome up with "a pretty objective report." Area Economy Will Benefit by Construction of New Highway Construction of the new Pa cific freeway through Med ford will add much to the lo cal economy during the next tew years, according to a talk delivered here Monday by Merlin Marks, general con struction superintendent of the free vay project. Marks told the Medford Chamber of Commerce round- table luncheon that many of the materials needed for the freeway, and almost all of the labor, will be obtained from the Medford area. Construction is scheduled to start March 1, of next year, on a stretch of the freeway from Seven Oaks dr. to Jack son st. This stretch is sched uled to be completed April 16, 1962. Await Better Weather Marks, an employee of Pe ter Kicwit Sons Construction company, which will build tlie section of highway for a contract cost of $3,032,000, said work will first start on 2.3 miles of the freeway from Table Rock rd. to Jackson st. Construction of the section from Seven Oaks to Table Rock rd. will await better weather. Rod Miller, area superin tendent for Peter Kiewit Sons, also spoke at the round table meeting, and said that between 120 to ISO men will be employed on the freeway project during the periods of peak employment. Employ ment of these men, Miller said, will bring the Medford area a payroll of approxi mately $1 million. Marks listed a number of the construction , materials which will be purchased lo cally. These include 5,600 yards of concrete for struc tures; 120 pre-cast 'beams; 30,000 tons of asphaltic con- crete; 42,000 cubic yards of concrete for paving; concrete pipe; fuel, oil and grease; elec tric power; and small tools and other supplies. Marks pointed out that be cause of the city noise ordi nance, construction of the por tion of the freeway within the city limits of Medford will take somewhat longer than it would if there were no ordi- Use Odds and Ends One-Yard Wonder If J i k V"945 m.

Portland Has 16th December Robbery Portland (UPD Portland's armed robbery total for De cember was raised to 16 Mon day night when a drug store the downtown area and a grocery in southeast Portland were held up. The amount taken was undetermined. Minority Opposes Using O&C Funds In School Support Salom - IUPD - Minority re ports have been filed to rec ommendations of the Legis lative Interim Education com mittee for basic school support and a new plan for distribut ing state aid to schools called the Equalized Flat Grant (EFG) formula. Two lay members of the 13- mcmber committee, James C. Yeomans and William Bade, both of Portland, filed minor ity reports to both proposals. On basic school support, Yeomans and Bade said the in creased amount should be limited to two per cent of per sonal and corporate income in the state. The committee s ma jority report sets no limitation. On EFG, they dissented to the whole program. Four legislative members of the committee filed a minority report to the EFG plan, oppos ing inclusion of Oregon and California (O&C) railroad land grant funds for schools. The four, all from O&C counties, are Sen.-elect Al Flcgel, (D - Roseburg), and Reps. Evelyn Nye, (R-Mcd-ford); Nancy Kirkpatrick, (D-Lebanon); and Tom Mon aghan, (D-Milwaukic). The city's noise ordinance requires that no construction be done before 7 a.m. or aft er 6 p.m. Marks said this will restrict construction in the city to one shift daily. Normally two shifts a day would be used, he said. If two shifts were used, grading of the highway in the city probably would be completed by Aug. 15, 1961. Working only one shift a day, he said. it is expected that the grad ing will not be completed un til Oct. 15, 1961. Three Basic Goals Marks said the company will have three basic goals during construction of the freeway: one, safety of both the employees and the public; two, good relations with both the state and the public; and three, to make a profit. I Under safety, Marks said he is particularly concerned with the safety of the public during construction of the freeway in the vicinity of Crater Lake highway. During construction at this location, he said, there will be "ample" signs, lights and flagmen. "We will try to do the best we can, he said, but, we will need the help of the people (public) in doing what the signs say. Honest State Miller told the group that the "state of Oregon is one of the most honest states we (Peter Kiewit and Sons) have over run into" during its con struction of freeways through out the United States. He not ed that in several stales, no tably Oklahoma and Florida, there has been alleged mis handling of federal funds in the federal highway project by state officials. -- . He ' said recent investiga tions into the interstate high way programs have both in creased the costs of the proj ect and lengthened the time necessary to complete the pro gram. He added that many states, Oregon included, are hesitant to take any initiative in the program, because of these investigations. .
