Kennedy Hears
Health Report
From Specialists
Washington - IUPB - Some of
the top U.S. specialists on can.
cer and heart disease told
President Kennedy today that
the nation must step up its
attack on both ailments or
face further increases in their
huge toll of death and dis
ability.
The President's Conference
on Heart Disease and Cancer.
composed of zz leading ex
perts, said the two maladies
are the combined cause of
two out of every three Ameri
can deaths today. Yet, they
said, the nation has hardly
begun its scientific fight
against them.
Part of the concern about
cancer, they said in a report to
the President, stems from "en
vironmental hazards ,' includ
ing radiation and cancer-pro
ducing substances which "can
be isolated from air and from
water pollutants to which
large populations are- ex
posed."
"Tobacco smoke is an In-
dividual form of such pollu
tion, and a particular cancer
hazard," the report said.
Month's Work ,i
The report, phrased In non
technical language, was pre
pared after a month of draft
ing, trading and re-working
individual views. The confer
ence was headed by Boisfeuil-
let Jones, special assistant to
the secretary of health, educa
tion and welfare.
Its members included Dr,
S. Ravdln, prominent cancer
surgeon from the University
of Pennsylvania, and Dr. Paul
Dudley White, famed heart
specialist from Boston who
treated former President
Dwlght D. Eisenhower 'after
s 1959 coronary attack.
The report,' presented ' to
Kennedy at the White House,
called for "a much ' higher
level of federal appropriations
in support of medical re
search" on the two diseases. It
also urged big boosts in volun
tary contributions.
The specialists strongly en
dorsed the President's recom
mendation for federal scholar
ships for talented but needy
medical students.. Its major
proposals, centered upon a
need for expanded research,
Urge Medical File
But they also suggested es
tablishment of "a centralized
electronic file" of individual
medical histories, so- that a
physician getting a new pa
tient would have ready refer
ence to the person's life-time
medical record
Such a file, the report said.
could "prevent unnecessary
duplication of therapy, exces
sive accumulation of radiation
exposure, needless expense,
great waste of time, and would
facilitate better use of diag
nostic and treatment data."
These records could be
held in strictest confidence to
be made immediately avail
able to the physician on the
patient's authorization," the
report said. "As an immedi
ate, preliminary step, the
system of local and state can
cer registries should, be. ex
panded greatly."
Durno Introduces
Shorelands Bill
Washington - IUPD - Rep.
Edwin R. Durno (R-Ore.)
Thursday Introduced a bill to
establish a 31,000-acre Oregon
Dunes National Shorelands to
be administered by the U. S.
Forest Service.
Legislation to establish a
35,000 acre Oregon Dunes Na
tional Seashore to be admin
istered by the National Park
service was introduced earlier
In the Senate by Sen. Maurine
Neuberger (D-6re.).
Durno criticized proDosals
for the national seashore on
grounds that It would require
the purchase of private lands
outside the area he has Dro-
posed.
Under Durno's bill, the
area would be administered
for recreation, scenic and sci
entific use, but other uses -including
logging - could be
permitted by the Department
of Agriculture.

CUBANS DEMONSTRATE A crowd of more than 10,000
Cubans demonstrated in front of a Miami hotel to ask Dr.
Jose Morra, secretary of the Organization of American
Eichmanh Trial
Hears Offer To
Exchange Guilt
Jerusalem . (UPD Adolf Elch-
mann told the world today he
would 'admit his guilt as a
war criminal if the victors of
World War II admitted their
guilt also and agreed to stand
trial for war crimes. ,
"As long as there are two
standards ' of measurement,
then I do not consider myself
guilty, but on the contrary-
not guilty, because I acted ex
clusively on orders I had re
ceived, just like they did," he
declared. , . .
From Tape Recorder
The words and voice rasp
ing through the quiet Jerusal
em courtroom were those of
the man charged With mass
murder of six million Jews.
But they came from a tape
recorder playing back' part of
the 400,000-word deposition
Elchmann made to Israeli po
lice after his capture in
Buenos Aires last year.
The .Israeli state prosecu
tion this morning completed
playing sections of Elch
mann's deposition, while he
sat without sign of emotion ln
his glass box dock listening to
his own voice. The trial then
recessed until Monday.

Salem (UPD Challenging an
attorney .general's opinion,
witnesses declared Thursday
Oregon has the legal right to
save resources and combat
"the export of thousands of
jobs" by banning . foreign
shipment of logs cut from
state tracts. s
The statements were made
before the Senate Commerce
and Utilities Committee. Most
witnesses endorsed a House-
passed bill aimed at keeping
for home manufacture a few
of the several hundred mil
lion feet' of raw logs exported
from the West Coast for low
cost processing -in Japan.
. The measure would affect
logs from state and county
lands, excluding federal and
private, tracts which account
for most timber..

Support for the bill came
on the heels of an opinion by
Atty. Gen. Robert Y. Thorn
ton' that the measure would
usurp the exclusive right 'of
Congress to regulate foreign
commerce. ; '
Rep. Clarence Barton (D-
Coquille) denied this., He
quoted legal authorities as
saying the state may "con
serve for the use of its peo-
ple"resources that are "owned
by. the state In .trust for its
people.
Barton described logs as a
"rapidly diminishing resource
. . . that we are going to need"
to feed plants ' and keep the
labor force working. ,
A Coos Bay lumberman,
Kenneth Lewis, said "direct
competition with foreign ex
porters for the raw materials
we need" has left firms like
his own "fighting for our
economic lives."
Other Highlights '
Pollution: The House passed
unanimously a senate -ap
proved bill giving the State
Sanitary Authority broad
powers in preventing air con
tamination. The bin is a com
panion to a water pollution
control bill passed earlier. It
goes back to the Senate for
concurrence in an amendment
tightening up a section ex
empting urban renewal and
highway projects from any
control. '
Speed! The Senate High
ways Committee approved a
bill setting highway speed
limits of 70 miles for cars, 60
for buses and 55 for trucks.
The car speed limit had been
cut earlier but was restored.
Wiretap: The House Judic

bill permitting authorities to
use recording devices to inves
tigate narcotics cases.

Former MacLaren
School Employee
Salem - IUPB - The State
Civil Service Commission late
Thursday rejected the appeal
of an employee at MacLaren
School for Boys who claimed
he was improperly fired after
slapping an inmate for swear
ing at him.
After a hearing the commis
sion said it found that the dis
missal was ,"made in good
faith and for cause." .
The appeal -had been filed
by Maurice Hammer, 40, a
MacLaren supervisor who was
fired by Supt. Amos Reed
March "13, the day after the
alleged incident. Hammer was
charged on the same day as
oi me dismissal with assault
ing Reed but Hammer was
found innocent of the. charge
in wooaourn justice Court
The commission said "there
was a conflict of testimony"
as to whether Hammer was
given written notice of dis
missal March 13. The decision
said that proper written no
tice was delivered to Ham
mer, was filed with the civil
service director, and that the
"manner of dismissal and fil
ing of appeal were adequate
under rules of the commis
sion." : i
The. other major point
brought out at the hearing
was whether MacLaren policy
allowed physical punishment
of inmates for verbal abuse
of staff members.

In Latin America
By United Press International
Most of Latin America ap
peared today to be lining up
with the United States and
the Cuban anti-Communists
against ; Premier Fidel Cas
tro's revolutionary regime.
Newspapers in Colombia,
the only Latin American na
tion that joined the fight
against Communism in Korea,
suggested that Castro's use of
Russian-made arms against
his foes amounted to a form
of "Muscovite imperialist" ag
gression against the Western
Hemisphere.
Reaction Favorable
Although few officials were
willing to comment publicly,
the reaction to President Ken
nedy's firm stand against So
viet intrusion in the affairs
of the new world appeared
generally favorable.; .
Ecuador, one of the three
countries Castro had expect
ed to side with him against
any form of collective action
by the Organization of Ameri
can States, appeared today to
be turning against him..

There was no immediate
comment from Brazil, the na

as Castro's probable third

The anti-American wave of
violence whipped up by the
Communists in Latin America
