For Constructive Solution by State Legislature
Salem - IUP1) - Spokesmen
lor Gov, Mark Hatfield and
the public welfare commission
bandied charges of "misman
agement" and "gross distor-
tion" Tuesday night - but key
legislators agreed a second
welfare hearing ended with
" no heroes and no villians, just
a number of welfare prob
lems. House Speaker Robert Dun-.-
can of Medford predicted the
three - hour hearing, and the
four-hour one last week, had
cleared the way for the legis
lature to "proceed to a con
structive solution."

Corhmitlee Chairman Norman
Howard (D-Portland) and Re
publican Minority Leader F.
F.;' Montgomery of Eugene

ed up trouble spots where

in welfare.

Mill at Gardiner
Panama City, Fla.-IUPD-Sen.
Maurine Neuberger (D-Ore.),
Tuesday gave her blessings to
a pulp mill by International
Paper Co. on the Southern
Oregon coast near Gardiner.
The mill would be near the
proposed Oregon Dunes Na
tional Seashore.
She came here to study a
paper mil project similar to
the one planned for Oregon
expressing fear that waste
from the mill might injure
recreational areas.
But after louring the 'In
ternational mill here, she said
her fears were allayed.
"I think the mill will be
an aid to natural resources,"
she '.said. "I like the com
pany's plans tor dams which
help fresh water fishing."
OSC Research Vessel
Launched at Portland
Forlland-IUHI-Oregon Stale
college had lis own "Navy"
today.
An 80-foot ocean-going re
search vessel built at a cost
of $180,000 was launched here I
Monday. ,
The vessel, called the
Acona, was constructed under
a grant from the Office of Na
val' Research which picked
Oregon Slate ai one of 10
schools to study waters along
he Pacific, Atlantic and Gulf
coasts. L i . .
The ship will be based at
Newport.
Howard and Duncan indi
cated there was little chance
the legislature would go all
the way with Hatfield's plan
to i abolish the commission.
"There is always an area of
compromise," Howard said
after the hearing, "possibly in
making the administrator,
rather than the commissioner,
accountable to the governor."

and efficient program that was
continuing to make "outstand

competence" was reflected in
low Oregon case loads, in
creased federal grants, and
improving collections.
Commission members said
they stood behind Miss Jewett,
and called her a woman of
competence and courage.
Several hundred people at
tended the hearing.
Mrs. John Hall, member of
the Lincoln County Welfare
Commission and wife of the
former governor, lashed at the
state group for treating coun
ty agencies as "mere puppets"
and "rubber stamps."
Commissioner Gerson Gold
smith denied the marge but
added, if the governor takes
charge of welfare, "what is
the state commission going to
be?"
Both Goldsmith and Hat
field's aide, Warne Nunn,
however, made a move for
conciliation.
"I hope this has cleared the
air," Goldsmith said, "so prob
lems that have existed be
tween the governor's office
and the welfare commission
can be worked out."

Metropolitan Art
Museum Confesses
Forgeries Shown
New York -IUPII- The Metro
politan Museum of Art has
confessed sadly that three
"major Etruscan sculptures"
which have thrilled laymen
and intrigued experts for the
past 30 years are forgeries.
James J. Ronmer, director
of the museum, said the
works, so impressive that an
entire room was devoted al
most entirely to them, were
the creation of a 20th Century
forger. They supposedly dated
from about 500 B.C.
Impressive Size
The objects are three terra
colta figures of warriors of
impressive size and heroic at
titude. The first is a helmeted
head nearly five feet high.
The other two are figures
eight feet and six feet high.
They weigh 800 and 500
pounds respectively.
Since their public display
by, the museum in 1933 the
figures have been the object
of considerable suspicion by
archaeologists. , ...
The distrust of experts was
finally- confirmed by the' in
vestigaiions of Joseph V.
Noble, operating adminislra- sculptures.
tor of the museum and an ex
pert on ceramics.
He proved that the black
glaze on the statues was pro
duced not by an ancient Greek
oxidizing method but by the
modern dyeing agent manga
nese dioxide.
Deliberately Broken
It also appeared that the
statues had been deliberately
broken into many fragments
before they were placed in the
firing ovens to support their
authenticity when they were
presented for the appraisal of
museum experts.
The museum would not dis
close what the figures had
cost nor where they had been
obtained. But it is known that
the price was high and it is
assumed they came from
Italy.
They will for the moment
remain on display, but with a
notice describing their re
duced circumstances.
The museum officials did
not explain why it took them
nearly 30 years before check
