UNITED J Duncan Works Out Free Medical Deal For House Members 2 niMkl k sr5a cms- By Marguerite W. Wright Statehouse, Salem (Special) Free medical services for members of the Oregon House of Representatives will be provided by Salem area doctors this session. The unprecedented ar rangement was worked out this week by House Speaker Robert B. Duncan (D-Med- ford) and Dr. Richard Upjohn, president of the Marion-Polk Medical Society. This action will save Ore gon taxpayers at least $1,000 this session. Medicare for ailing lawmak ers has cost taxpayers $3,000 for the past three sessions of the Legislative Assembly. The Senate this year, un der President Harry Boivin (D-Klamath Falls) will con tinue its long-standing prac tice of paying- one doctor a per diem fee basis. His fee this session is $10 per day ($1 000 for a 100-day session). Dr. Ralph Purvine of the Salem Clinic has served the "family physician" for Oregon legislatures since 1847 and continues to serve the Senate in 1061. Total Increases The cost of medical serv ice has gone up year after year. In the 1955 session. Dr. Purvine was paid at the rate of $250 from the House and $250 from the Senate for a total of $500 for the session. In 1057, the total was $1,000. In 1959, the total was Sl,- 500. This year, Speaker Dun can, who has been trying to save taxpayers' money on leg islative expenses wherever he could, found another way to look after the health of House members. "Recognizing the financial sacrifice many legislators must make in serving their stale, the doctors expressed a willingness to make a con tribution of their professional services, just as the Oregon Slate Bar Association has done in providing a staff of attor neys to assist lawmakers at no cost to the taxpayers, and as the Ministerial Association has done In providing clergy men to open each day's ses sion Willi prayer, Duncan said. Liit Providde The Medical Society has given the Speaker a list of doctors who may be called whenever any of the House members need medical atten tion. Duncan said he was grate ful for "this fine expression of public service by the med ical profession." The new arrangement in the House will not only save taxpayers' money, but also doctor's time. Traditionally, for more than a decade, Dr. Purvine has been appearing with his little black bag on the floor of the House and Senate daily to consult with any legisla tor (and, sometimes, with sec retaries) who might not feel very well. But on many days there would be nobody sick, al though the doctor would be on call for emergencies. (Lawmakers' families did not get "free" care, but often would be treated as private patients of the Salem Clinic of which Dr. Purvine is one of several staff doctors. Through his frequent contacts with legislators at the State house, and his traditional din ners and teas for legislators and their wives at his home Dr. Purvine has become well acquainted with many of the states political leaders.) State Bar Service by the Oregon Stale Bar, noted by Speaker Duncan, works like this: The Bar Association main tains an office in the State house staffed by lawyers who are assigned by the Bar to serve two weeks each. The Bar provides these attorneys with room and board while they are in Salem, but the lawyers don't get paid for their service to the Legisla ture, which consists mainly of assistance and advice in drafting bills. Lawyers figure that the ex perience and professional and personal contacts gained while working at the Statehouse make the free service well worthwhile. Marion-Polk county physi cians offering their free serv ices to House members may feel equally well-rewarded. Voice of America Will Send Story All Over World Washington - WD - The United States is stepping up its anti-Castro propaganda campaign in Latin America and the rest of the world. Next week the voice of America will broadcast a spe cial one hour documentary on the Cuban premier, entitled "The Anatomy of a Broken Promise." The U. S. information agency said this documentary "is part of a major USIA ef fort to intensify its world-wide reporting of the Cuban refu gee situation, and particularly to get the story into all parts of Latin America. Series of Interviews It said that after the special broadcast, the voice of Amer ica's Latin American service will begin airing "a series of interviews in Spanish with refugee Cuban teachers, doc tors, newspapermen, artisans, laborers, agricultural work ers, small businessmen, and others who will tell why they fled their homeland under the Castro regime." President Kennedy was asked at his news conference last week what steps the Unit ed States was planning to take to counteract Castro propaganda. He replied that we are giving the matter of Cuba and its export of the revolution throughout Latin America high priority." 'The Anatomy of a Broken Promise" was recorded in Mi ami, Washington and New York. In it, USIA said "Cu ban refugees trace Fidel Cas tro's rise to power and tell why they turned against him. Broken Promises Told According to the USIA, the bulk of the program tells how Castro broke his promises of free elections, freedom of the press, democratization of la bor, non-intervention of any kind from any nation in the internal affairs of Cuba, and betterment of opportunities for the people. The program will be beam ed in English to the Carib bean and Central and South Undergraduate Research Proqram Set at U of O Eugene-An $111,915 under graduate research program in eight departments of the col lege of liberal arts will start this summer under grants from the National Science Foundation. Announcement of the NSF Undergraduate Research Par ticipation Program for 1961 62 points up the fact that of the 14 grants totalling $151,- 325", given to five Oregon col leges and universities, the Uni versity of Oregon received eight of the grants totaling $111,915. The undergraduate research program is designed to give capable undergraduate stu dents the opportunity to work in advanced research projects under faculty, thus widening their understanding and abil ity in scientific investigative methods. Contribute io Education Under the belief that such research experience with fac ulty direction can contribute greatly to the science educa tion of undergraduates, NSF has made 357 grants totalling $3.2 million dollars during the three years since the program was established. University grants are made for the coming months to the departments of biology, phys ics, chemistry, sociology, an thropology, psychology, math ematics, and to the Museum of Natural History. These grants will enable students in all these depart ments to participate in the program starting this summer and continuing through the academic year 1961.-62. In the biology, chemistry, and phys- sics departments, the grants will extend through 1962-63. Participating students will receive stipends of $60 a week during the 8 to 10 week sum mer session, and $150 a year. FAVORS TAX CUT Holly wood-OIPD - Sen. Paul H.
