Salem-WPD-The Oregon Su
preme Court Wednesday
threw out a manslaughter
charge against Pacific Pow
der Co., Tenino, Wash., in
connection with the August,
1959, Roseburg truck blast
that claimed 14 lives.
'The manslaughter statutes
do not apply to corpora
tions," the high court held.
The decision upheld Jack
son County Circuit Court
Judge James M. Main, as
signed to Douglas county to
hear the case.
Pacific Powder Co. owned
the explosive-laden truck
that was parked in downtown
Roseburg when it blew up,
leveling an area near the
heart of the city.
Unlawfully Parkej
The Supreme Jourt said
tlie truck "wis unlawfully
parked in the center of the
ci'y of Roseburg in violation
of interstate commerce regu
lations." ,
In Roseburg, Douglas
County Dlst. Atty. Avery
Thompson said he had no
plans to appeal the case.
But, the opinion, written
by Justice William C. Perry
said, "It has generally been
held that corporate criminal
responsibility does not extend
to crimes involving personal
violence and specifically
homicide or manslaughter."
The opinion said involun
tary manslaughter lies legal
ly "within the framework of
homicide and the only penal
ties provided are either death
or imprisonment, which pen
alties are incapable of execu
tion against a corporation."
Means Human Being
The word "person" as used
in connection with homicide, j
the court said, "means a hu
man being."
"It seems quite clear," the
court said, "that the legisla
ture, in enacting into law the
common law definition of
homicide, although dividing
it into degrees of murder and
manslaughter, was consider
ing only human derelictions
and the word person in the
involuntary manslaughter sta
tute, when considered in con
text, cannot be construed to
include corporations." - ,

tice Kenneth J. O'Connell;

'TOLL TRAPS'-Rep. William
C. Cramer (R-Fla.) above,
charged that "toll traps" are
infiltrating the entire inter
state highway system. Cram
er, ranking minority member
of the House Highway Inves
tigating Subcommittee, called
for a full examination of the
Bureau of Public Roads' posi
tion on toll facilities. Cramer
said he felt approval of toll
gates was a violation of the
1956 Highway Act.

Curriculum Center
Reviewed atCof C
Meeting in Ashland
Ashland-James McDonald
director of the Jackson county
curriculum materials center,
demonstrated and explained
functions of the center at the
Tuesday noon luncheon of the
Ashland Chamber of Com
merce. McDonald said the center
does only what the individual
schools cannot do better them
selves. He outlined the de
velopment of the center. The
County Superintendent's asso
ciation recognized the need
for a materials center 13 years
ago. They spent $250 to pur
chase 13 films, McDonald
said. He said there are now
1,500 films in the center li
brary. Purchaiei Previewed
The center expanded to the
point where it is now a vital
part of the school systems,
McDonald indicated. It is sup
ported by the rural and coun
ty school boards and the
county court, he said.
Every piece of equipment
purchased is previewed and
evaluated by at least two
teachers, McDonald said. He
outlined the four functions of
the center as maintaining a
library of materials, operating
repair service, production of
educational aids and consul
tation service.
Indiana University rated the
center as one of the top 15
in the country for production
work, McDonald commented.
He demonstrated how an over
head projector can be used in
teaching and how overhead
transparencies are made. Tape
recordings also are produced,
he said.
The repair and maintenance
department is necessary be
cause there is no place be
tween San Francisco and
Portland offering rapid serv
ice. "We do our own at one
third the cost," McDonald re
n.urked. Maximum Effectiveness
Consultation includes show
ing teachers and schools how
curriculum aids can be used
for maximum effectiveness,
he said. He mentioned that
the center also helps in set
ting up special educational
facilities, such as foreign lan
guage studios.
Problems facing the center
include informing teachers of
the variety of materials avail
able; making sure they re
ceive proper classroom use,'
and coordination of materials
so that everyone doesn't want
the same item on the same,
day.
He said curriculum aids of
fer a method of accelerating
the learning rate while, at the
same time, maintaining qual
ity of presentation.

BISHOP
W. VERNON MIDDLETOWN
Bishop of the Western
Pennsylvania Area, Methodist
Church
(Written for UPI)
Never before has it been so
necessary to .understand the
meaning for mankind of the
life, death and Resurrection
of Jesus Christ.
Powerful forces struggle to
master the minds and souls
of men. From without, we
face not only the threat of a
godless communism, but the
attractive claims of non
Christian faiths and philoso
phies. From within, we are
confronted with a technologi
cal economy which threatens
to depersonalize man, and by
an indifferent skepticism
which scoffs at the idea of
purpose ana produces a moral
and spiritual vacuum in hu
man lives.
It is in this troubled world
of today that the Christian
faith has its most significant
hour. That faith does not min
imize the enormity of the
struggle. Nor does it discount
the legitimate criticism of the
western world inherent in the
human struggles erupting all
over the world.
Total Gospel Story
In the midst of uncertainty,
fear and the general empti
ness of human living, that
faith maintains that the mean
ing of human existence and
of the world lLself, can best
be understood in the revela
tion of God's purpose for man
through the total Gospel
story.
That faith asserts that
Christ did "dwell among men"
and that He did say and do the
things recorded in the Gos
pels. In so doing He revealed
the true nature of God. In
His death we see the extent
to which our Creator will go
to reconcile God and man.
and man and man. In His
Resurrection we witness the
demonstration that goodness
is stronger than evil and can
not be destroyed, and we ex
perience the assurance that
now man does not need to
walk alone.
It is through this confidence
that man finds it possible to
live triumphantly today, in
spite of all evidence to the
contrary. God still rules in
the affairs of men.
