Youths Testify on lower Oregon Voting Age
Salem - HOT Young men and
women 18 to 21 gave members
of the legislature some con
trasting views from the inside
Wednesday on whether they
think iheir age group is suffi
ciently mature-or "too shield
ed and emotional" - to vote.
There was a sharp division
White House An
For $270 Millio
Washington-dPD-The White
House, in a further anti-recession
move, announced to
day that a $270 million post
office construction program
will be speeded up.
New buildings will be got
ten under way during the next
10 months instead of the next
18 months as originally plan
ned, the White House said.
Under the program, $16B
million worth of construction
will be carried out with priv
ate funds nnd the facilities
leased back to the govern
ment. Press Secretary Pierre Sal
inger said the action was in
line with President Kennedy's
nounces Plan To Speed Program
n in Post Office Construction
statement at a news confer
ence Feb. 15 that he would
help stimulate the economy
by accelerating the Post Of
fice Department's building
schedule.
As a follow-up. Salinger
said, the department "will in
itiate nearly $270 million in
new construction starts dur
ing calendar year 1961."
lie said the stepped-up pro
gram has been geared to
"stimulation of private Invest
ment with a minimum outlay
of federal funds."
Salinger said this would be
achieved by "doubling the
number of expected construc
tion starts under two lease
back programs" under which
private firms build the post
office facilities and the gov
ernment then rents them.
He said "small lease facili
ties" would entail $117 mil
lion with an additional $52
million "earmarked for major
lease facilities."
Salinger said the Post Of
fice Department would pro
vide specific details on loca
tion of the projects. He said
"priorities for all buildings
will be based on the needs of
the postal service" but that
efforts would be made to
equate these needs with prob
lems "of areas of substantial
unemployment and depressed
conditions."

day he has received about 150
letters so far on the .bill to
regulate trading stamps. He is
chairman of the House State
and Federal Affairs Commit
tee which has the bill, r HB-1569.
All but one of the letters

last time.
A tougher bill died in pre
vious sessions.
of opinion between the stu
dents as they testified before
the House Elections Commit
tee on a resolution to amend
the Oregon constitution by re
ducing the voting age from
21 to 18.
Indications were the com
mittee would approve the
resolution.
Tony Meeker, 21, William
ctte University, said 18-year-olds
are considered old
enough to pay taxes, drive
cars, marry, serve In the

cess, he said.
Western Air Lines To Resume Flights
Los Angeles -0JPD- Western
Air Lines planned to resume
some flights today with 79
pilot-engineers replacing fired
striking engineers.
Western planes have been
idle since engineers first
walked off the job Feb. 17
in dispute with the pilots'
union.
The airline refused to take
back the 110 engineers who
took part in the airline en
gineers' strike last month in
volving seven airlines. The
other airlines resumed opera
tions last month.
Terrell Drinkwater, presi
dent of Western Air Lines,
said full service would be
restored by his firm as soon
as possible.
Initial flights this .week
will serve areas such as
Colorado, Wyoming, Montana,
South Dakota, Utah and Idaho
where no other flights are
available, he said.
Drinkwater estimated his
firm lost about $175,000 a day
in revenue from the time the
strike started Feb. 17.
William Henderson, 19, Wil
lamette University, disagreed.
He said many teen-agers were
"still in a sheltered condi
tion," and showed a high de
gree of "emotionalism and in
stability." Girl Gets Praise
Anne Ryding of St. Helen's
High ' School, an 18-year-old
exchange student from Eng
land, described her age group
as "typical raucus teen-agers
who have not yet settled
down."
In a brisk presentation that
won praise from the commit
tee, the pretty brunette dis
missed the early marriage ar
gument with: "Two wrongs
don't make a right."
As for serving in the armed
forces, she said, fighting re
quires only "obedience ,- to
orders or blind patriotism."
Miss Ryding also compared
American youth to her own
country. "In America," .she
said, "young people are not
taught how to take respon
sibility, they are protected
and shielded."
Fred Chambers, president
of the Oregon Young Demo
crats, supported a lower age,
and asked the committee to
leave the decision up to the
voters by placing the proposal
on the ballot in 1T'J2.
