Salem - VPH - The United
Churchwomen of Oregon have
gone on record against a bill
that would allow youngsters
under 18 to buy cigarettes
with their parent's consent.
The superintendents of Hill-
crest School for Girls, Mac-
Laren School for Boys and
the State Correctional Insti
tute spoke in favor of the
measure, HB1312, subject of
a House Judiciary Committee
hearing.
The bill was requested by
the slate Board of Control
and its primary purpose is to
allow tccn-agcrs in Correction
al schools under 18 to smoke.
1955 Law Repealed
The main argument was
(hat the law forbidding sale
of tobacco to those under 18
is not enforced "on the out
side" and young wards of the
state should be allowed to
smoke if their parents or
guardians approve.
Oregon passed a law in
1955 allowing teen-agers to
buy cigarettes with written
consent but this was repeal
ed in 1959.
Mrs. Ralph H. Mort of Port
land, representing the Protes
tant Churchwomen, reminded
the committee' that the law

OFFERS CONGO AID
New Delhi-IUPII-The World

offer from Russia today to
send 15 doctors and 10 to 15
medical workers to the Con

One-Way Traffic
On Highway 101
Salem - (UPH - A slide near
Astoria on Highway 101 at'
milcposl 26.9 resulted in one
way traffic there today.
The state highway depart
ment also said Highway 99's
two northbound lanes were
still closed by. a slide near
Curtaln'-jsqUflh -o Cottage;
Grove but that traffic was
moving on the southbound
lanes. Tha Elkton - Suthcrlin
and Yoncalla-Drain secondary
highways were open to light
traffic only in Douglas county.
Church Women Oppose Juveniles Buying Tobacco
would not pertain only to
youngsters in correctional
schools, but all the slate's
young people.
Mrs. Mort said even a
stronger law that would pro
hibit young people from smok
ing in or out of the home
"would be worth discussing."
Detlenback Concerned
Rep. John R. Dellcnback
(R Medford) and Rep. Edward
Fadeley (D-Eugene) expressed
concern over this and said
there is a question as to
whether the legislature could
pass such a law cutting into
what is supposed to be par
ental supervision.
Mrs. Mort, who said her
group has 32 councils
throughout Oregon, suggested
that what is needed in tho
Institutions is an "educational
program" to make youngster
more aware of "ill effects" of
smoking.
She said if there was a
choice, she would rather sea
the bill allow youngsters in
institutions to smoke than
open up purchase of cigar
ettes to all young people. ;
