Distributed by Xing features Syndicate Commercial Code For State Topic of Hearing in Salem Salcin - IUPI) - Chairman George Van Hoomlssen of the House Judiciary committee said today another hearing will be held Feb. 6 on a sweeping new uniform com mercial code for Oregon, which would affect virtually every business in the state. Pros and cons of the pro posal, HB 1020, were present ed at a three-hour hearing Tuesday, attended by about 50 persons mostly lawyers. The bill was introduced at the request of the Oregon Commission for Uniform Stale Laws and the Slate Bar. Purpose of Code Portland attorney Rupert Buillivant, a member of the commission, was the leadoff witness for those favoring the code, which has been enacted by six states so far. Purpose is to simplify, clarify and unify laws affecting com merce. Bullivant said among the six are the heavily industrial ized states of Pennsylvania and Massachusetts and the re action there has been "over whelmingly favorable." Bankers for It Spokesmen for the Oregon Bankers Association and Pa cific Telephone - Northwest went on record for it. Bullivant described the code as a compromise between se cured and uhsecured creditors but a number of opponents to the measure disagreed With him. R. W. Kupfer, Portland, of the Oregon Association of Credit Management, said the problem is too Complicated for the legislature to study in the short time it meets. He proposed the code be referred to an interim committee. Only two sectibns of the code articles 6 and 9 came under fire. No. 6 is bulk trans fers and No. 9 secured trans actions. Article. 6 Opposed Several persons opposed article 8 because It fails to coyer restaurants. Article 9 would give a little more lee way to creditors who require security banks and other loan agencies. Among those opposing this were representa tives of Blake Mbffitt & Towne, paper manufacturing firm; Packer Scott Co. of Port land, janitorial supply firm; and Jantzen, Inc., Portland, swimsuit and clothing manufacturer. Orderly Solution To Integration in Persuasion, Courts Persuasion alld litigation are the answers fob all order ly solution to the integration questions itl the South. This Is the opinion of Dr. Herman Lee Turner, for more than 30 years pastor of the Cdvonartt Prcsbyteriah church in Atlanta, Ga., and currently moderator of the 172nd Gen eral Assembly of the United Presbyterian church iH t h e Uhited States. Dr. Turner stopped briefly in Medford Tuesday afternoon cn route to Grants Pass Where he had a speaking engage ment. Dr. Turner explained that in 1957 the majority of the churches in Atlanta adopted a manifesto which has served as a "guiding light." The mah ifcstb called for communica tion between races, support of the public school system, obedience of the law and a dependency upon God lb guide the churches In the crit ical days. Courts Proper Channel The church leader said that the courts are t h e proper channel to bring about inte gration. He added that revo lution and riot must be avoid ed. Dr. Turner stressed that the South represents a cul ture which took 250 years to form and it will not be changed overnight. I Dr, Turner did not feel I that Integration Was moving too last, explaining mat some persons are becoming impa tient. He commented that the sit-in demonstrations are a method to get a hold of the conscience of the people. Speaking on the recent pro posal by Dr. Eugene Carson Blake, stated clerk of the Church, in Which he Called for the merger of four denomina tions. Dr. Turner explained that the proposal had not been brought before the General Assembly of the church, but thai It would be. , Interested in Unity He said that all of the Prbsbyterlan church leaders are interested in a greater unity of denominations and stressed the need for moral ahd spiritual Values "If we are lo find peace in our time." "United," the church mod erator said, "one voice Sould speak for all people." Commenting on his own denomination, Dr. Turner said that the United Presbyterian church must promote fellow ship and goodwill between members bt Its bWH Presby terian and Reformed families and coordinate as much of lis work as possible so a rrtergfir of these churchbs could take plate. Private Life Rate; Drives Automobile Albany, Ga. -Wft- Dwight D. Elsenhower, 70, shed the dignity acquired in the Army and as a President of the United States and frolicked like a kid out of school. The former President drove a car for the first time in 20 years even though he has no Friends, Foes Of Castro Stage Demonstrations Havana -IUPD- Friends and foes of Premier Fidel Castro staged rival demonstrations Tuesday night In front of the Church of Our Lady of Car men, near Havana University, il was reported today. The official radio said "rapid intervention" by police prevented a Castrolle crowd of more than 1,000 persons from "punishing the (atitl Castro) disturbers of the peace." No casualties were report ed. Crowd Dispersed The radio report said Cas trolles rushed to the scene when opponents of the gov ernment tried to stage a dem onstration outside the church. The anti-Castro crowd was quickly dispersed, and the Castroltes massed lo chant antl - religious slogans before returning to their homes. Castro set the stage for "im placable persecution" of his political foes by assigning a new commander to the forces battling anti-government guer rillas In central Cuba. Maj. Victor Bordotl took command of Castrolle forces cordoning off guerrilla - held areas in the Escambray Moun tains, possibly as a prelude to an all-but effort to Wipe out the anti-Reds. Hearings Resume In Havana's Cabana Fort ress prison, the "revolutionary tribunals" which had been idle for five days resumed proceedings against scores of political prisoners held In damp cells. Among those awaiting trial were six Americans accused of planning to join antl - Castro forces in the provinces. The Americans actually sailed into Havana harbor, but the Cas troltes say they did so only because "trouble at sea" made it Impossible to carry out their original plan. driver's license (il was a jack- rabbit halfmile on a private road), announced Intentions of learning how lo place his own telephone calls and clowned for cameramen.

Alton Jones, board chairman of the Cities Service Co. and Eisenhower's host on the vast 15.000 - acre Blue Springs plantation in smith Georgia, was suffering from the flu and a fever.

Eisenhower may do more hunting this week at the Tliomasville, Ga., estate of former Treasury Sec retary George M. Humphrey. George E. Allen. Eisenhow er's long-tlnie friend, said it was "living dangerously" lo ride with Eisenhower Who last drove a ear In 1940. Elsenhower said he also wanted to learn how lo use a telephone. Fol- years, as gen eral of the Army and later President, an aide always placed his phone calls for him. "How do you hinke a phone call?" he asked reporters, "t haven't looked in a phone book for 20 years." He was serious for a few moments at lunch. He asked newsmen not to quote him directly about international affairs and then commented that no American should be fooled into believing the So viet Union wants to stop the cold War. He said Russian Premier Nikiia Khrushchev is trying to kid somebody by extending what seem lo be peace feel ers, and accepting such things at face value would be infantile.
