Elected to two vear terms were Mrs. William T. Hodson, Capt. William Ricken, Mrs. Carl Lichti, Mrs. Robert Dun can, Dr. George G. Roseberry, Omar Bacon and Mrs. Roy Gilbertson. At the meeting a panel, composed of the Rev. Robert Dowry, the Rev. Thomas Mc Camant, and Chief of Police Charles P. Champlin, review ed the council's work during the past year. Dr. Joel Berreman, profes sor of sociology at the Univer sity of Oregon, spoke on hu man rights in Oregon. He said that we are too prone to point an accusing finger at the South, when in reality racial prejudice was evident for many years even in the Oregon constitution. Different Rights Human rights differ from civil rights, the speaker said, in that they are outside the law, and yet an individual may be cruelly hurt by the violation of common courtesy. Human as well as civil rights are violated when a person is denied the opportunity to find proper housing for his family in a community, he added. The most important thing the Human Rights council does is to create the climate in which laws may be made and put into force. An ex ample of such a law is now pending in the senate. This bill would extend public ac commodations to include goods and services to all per sons regardless of color or creed. Mark Smith and Russell Payton spoke on efforts at the state level that are at tempting to make this state a better place In which to live.

GOP Lacking Votes To Derail Program Washington-dJPII - Republic ans appeared to be losing ground today in their at tempts to use a substitute bill to derail President Kennedy's President Kennedy s program to aid depressed areas. House Republicans, without the backing of much of the GOP-Southern Democrat coal ition that employed the same tactics to hand the adminis tration its first setback Fri day, apparently lacked the votes to push their measure through. Debate on the Senate-pass ed, $394 million bill was ex pected to begin late today, with voting Wednesday. On the theory that you can t lick something with nothing, Republicans decided to try to try to knock out the adminis tration bill with a substitute carrying a cheaper price tag.
