SECTION C MEDFORD,
Welch Heckled
By Students at
Santa Barbara
Santa Barbara, Calif. flJPD
Robert welch, founder of the
John Birch Society, ran into
heckling from university stu
dents Wednesday night when
he said Chief Justice Earl
Warren should be ousted.
Welch, 61, a retired Bel
mont, Mass., candy maker,
spoke before a capacity crowd
of 1,000 at San Marcos high
school auditorium. About 200
of the listeners were students
from the University of Cali-
iornia at Santa Barbara.
Displeasure Expressed
The students expressed their
displeasure with boos, hisses,
and snickers when Welch
praised such figures as the
late Sens. Joseph R. McCarthy
and Robert A. Taft.
While students boosed, an
other and larger segment
made up of older people, ap
plauded vigorously each time
Welch mentioned these names.
Welch engaged in a heated
exchange with Charles Port
er, 21-year-old political sci
ence major, on the question
, of "front organizations."
Porter asked Welch wheth
er the " Birch society used
fronts to achieve its ends.
Welch said, "Of course we
advocate front organizations.
There is nothing ; immoral
about fronts. What may be
immoral is the purpose of the
fronts."
In answering a question
about Chief Justice Warren,
Welch ran into a chorus of
cat calls and yells by the stu
dents when he said, "I believe
it would be for the good of
the country to have Mr. War
ren removed from his present
position."
Democracy. Unmeniioned
. In his first reaction to the
question about Warren, Welch
said, "I don't like him. He
has taken the lead in a long
continued conversion of this
republic into a democracy.
The difference is vital. There
is nothing .our founding -fa
thers hated worse than a
democracy. The word democ
racy is not even mentioned
in the Constitution."
Welch Is due to, give the
next talk in his anti-Communist
tour at Phoenix, Ariz.,
Friday night.

McDonald Appeal
In Truck Blasts
Heard by Court
Salem-IUPD-The Oregon Su
preme Court Wednesday
heard the appeal of Levi S
McDonald, convicted in con
nection with dynamiting of
newspaper trucks in Portland
last year.
McDonald's attorney, Wil
liam J. Murray, said Multno
mah County Circuit Court
made 15 errors and that the
high court should set aside
the verdict. The appeal was
on McDonald's conviction in
Multnomah county. He also
has an appeal pending from
Clackamas county.
McDonald was given a 10-
year prison term and a $500
fine after a Portland jury
.found him guilty of compli
city in the dynamiting of four
trucks Jan. 31, 1960. He has
remained free on bail.
Murray questioned the con
stitutionality of (1) The grand
jury which returned the in
dictment against McDonald,
and (2) The law under which
he was convicted, plus the
15 alleged errors during the
trial. .."
Murray complained of pub
licity that accompanied - the
case. He charged that Mult
nomah County Sheriff Fran
cis Lambert had operated a
"circus", by having a press
"party" to circulate confes
sions. This, Murray said, prej
udiced the jury.
Deputy District Attorney
Oscar Howlett said McDonald
had a "fair trial," adding:
"There was no chance for
error."
Howlett said the district at
torney's office had "nothing
to do with the publicity" and
"we tried to put a damper
on it."-

The term will expire Dec. 19,

in action by the commission
Wednesday,' V. F. Birdseye,
chairman of the building code
committee, reminded mem
bers of .the public hearing on
the proposed code Wednesday,
April 19, at .8 p.nw at the
courthouse auditorium'. Copies
of the building code are now
available at the county plan
ning office in the courthouse
annex.
Displays Sign
CO. Lovejoy, commission
president, displayed a sign
which has been approved by
the county court to be posted
at the main roads leading to
zoned areas in the county.
The sign states "zoned area
by order of county court,
Jackson county planning com
mission." Henry Conger, Ross lane
area farmer and subdivider,
complained that he was a "vic
tim of the commission" re
garding a road he had built
in his subdivision on Roxy
Ann near the Hillcrest or
chards. According to state statute,
a person planning to create
a street or way for the pur
pose of partitioning a parcel
of land must seek the approv
al of the govening agency.
Conger told the commission
that "he did not like the tone
of a letter" he received from
Jack Eaton, planning commis
sion, so he did not appear to
discuss the matter with him.
It was later reported that he
may be violating an ordin
ance. Conger charged that he had
lived here for 54 years and
that "I can run my business
without orders from the plan
ning commission."
A letter received from the
Jackson County Home Own
ers association containing a
resolution by the Eagle Point
Parent-Teacher association op
posing the proposed Medford
Corporation logging road was
read. No action was taken
since itdid not come under
the jurisdiction of the com
mission. At the close of the meet
ing, C. C. Hoover presented
members of the commission
with evergreen trees.

Eymann To Offer
Minority Report
On Timber Tax
Salem -IUPD- Rep. Richard
Eymann declared Wednesday
he will seek to substitute a
minority report whert the In
dustrial Forestry Association
compromise timber, tax bill
reaches the House floor.
The measure was sent to 'the
floor late Wednesday, after
technical amendments were
completed, but action is not
expected for several days.
The bill won approval Mon
day, breaking a long impasse,
but was held for the technical
changes.
The committee passed it out
again Wednesday, solidly re
buffing a final attempt by
Rep. Clarence Barton to make
major amendments.
More Extreme Measure
Barton and Eymann have
sought a more extreme meas
ure that would favor the slow
cutter and the small tree
farmer. Most of the Western
Oregon timber industry, how
ever, in spite of differences,
has lined up behind the IFA
bill as a substantial improve
ment over the present law.
Several committee mem
bers said they would have
liked changes in the bill but
felt it was time to get a meas
ure to the floor. The commit
tee has been in a deadlock
over the timber tax issue for
nearly three months. ,
