Poppy Sale Slated
Here May 26, 27
"Buddy Poppy" sales will
be held May 26 and 27sin
Medford by the Veterans of
Foreign Wars, Crater Lake
Post and auxiliary. At 8 p.m.,
May 25 all volunteer members
will meet to prepare for the
sales.
VFW officials noted that
the poppy idea originated in
France during 1921 when the
Little Children's league de
cided to help widows and or
phans left destitute. The
league adopted the red pop
py, its national flower, as a
money-making project to help
veterans and their families.
The red flower symbolizes
those who lost their lives, and
it now aids those who surviv
ed. Following the dissolution
of the franco- American
league in 1922, the VFW made
a national appeal to sell the
poppy in the U.S. The VFW
has promoted the project since
1924, and it was decided to
allow disabled and needy vet
erans to assemble the poppies.
Proceeds from the poppy
sales are used for local proj
ects, supplies, payment for the
veterans who assemble them,
and for the National VFW Ea
ton Rapids home for orphaned
children.
Veterans or families of vet
erans, who need assistance
with the project may tele
phone Ira Canfield, SPring
3-1017-or Mrs. Fred Lawrence,

Great Decisions
Voters Say Vital
Society Crucial
A vital society is crucial to
American survival empha
sized 81 per cent of Oregon
participants in 1961's Great
Decisions discussion groups.
Voters included . economic
growth, social development,
quality of life, and values of
freedom in the term "socie
ty." One hundred per cent of
Jackson county voters agreed.
Sixty-one per cent of the
state's voters and 34 per cent
of Jackson county voters
added growth of a world com
munity that is increasingly
strong, free, and resistant to
communism as also import
ant to American survival.
Opinion ballots from 20
Oregon counties were tabu
lated last week by Oregon
State university extension
service.
'Arms and Survival'
Ballots on the topic "Arms
and Survival" showed 68 per
cent of the statewide voters
believe the 'U.S. must have
an indestructible retaliatory
force to convince Russia we
can and will strike back if
we or an ally is attacked,
Nearly as many added that
the U.S. must also have
standby conventional force
capable of resisting future
Korea-type aggression.
Seventy-one per . cent of
the people voting in Oregon
said since we wish to deter
war, we must be prepared to
wage, win and survive any
war we may be forced to
fight. Eighty per cent of Jack.
son county, voters balloted the
same way.
Sixty - eight per cent of
statewide voters believe the
U.S. must protect its civilian
population to insure survival
of greatest number, and to
convince Russia we can and
will retaliate, even after be
ing hit.
Nearly as many voters in
sist that military measures
are not enough. The U.S. must
also invest in economic, so
cial, and political develop
ment of non-communist world
community. Sixty - one per
cent of Jackson county voters
agreed.
Emphasise Education
On the topic "Blueprints
for the World Economy
three-fourths of those who
voted in Oregon said the U.S.
should emphasize education
and training projects which
contribute to political as well
as economic development.
Some dissatisfaction was
evident with administration
of U.S. economic assistance to
underdeveloped nations. Six
ty-one per cent of the voters
said better administration is
desirable whether the U.S.
raises, lowers,' or does not
alter its present level of aid
About the same number
felt the U.S. should urge its
allies to increase substantial
ly their present levels of ec
onomic development assist
ance. -
Only 1 per cent of the
state's voters said the U.S
should provide economic aid
only to U.S. military allies.
All of the Jackson county
voters indicated they felt the
same way.
Turning their attention to
the topic "The Americans in
Jeopardy," 65 per cent of the
voters encouraged more pro
ductive use of existing capi
tal, land, and other private
Latin American resources in
the development of free Latin
American economies.
Sixty-nine per cent of the
state voters and 93 per cent
of Jackson county voters said
the U.S. should expand tech
nical assistance and aid to
education because of its im
portance to economic, social
and political development in
freedom.

Home Rule Study
Group Continues
Its Discussion
The Jackson county home
rule study committee contin
ued its evaluation of possible
county powers under a home
rule charter Thursday night
and posed a number of ques
tions. Some of the main questions
were: whether the district at
torney or a county counsel
should prosecute violations of
ordinances enacted under a
charter? May a county charter
make other than existing state
election laws? What is a float
ing bond issue? What is real
ly the basic political organi
zation in the county? The
city has certain rights, the
county and the state. Who has
the rights left over-the residu
al rights?
Other questions which will
be asked authorities on politi
cal science and law are: Is
there a distinction between
the powers the county as
sumes as a body-politic and
those assumed by the admin
istrative and legislative func
tions of county government?
To Meet with Group
The committee agreed to
ask Marshall E. Woodell,
Southern Oregon college pro-
fesror of social science, to
meet with the group. Thomas
Owens, chief deputy district
attorney, will be asked to act
as the committee's legal advisor.
The committee spent consid
erable time discussing the
mechanics and effects of spe
cial elections. Some members
feel that special elections are
run by the minority and rec
ommended requiring a certain
percentage of registered vot
ers turning out before a spe
cial measure can be enacted,
Maxwell Thayer, Rogue
River Times editor, said the
people have the right to vote,
but asked if they could be
forced to assume that right.
Recommend Broad Powers
Committee member Phil
Humphreys r e c o m m e nded
that the county governing
body be given broad enough
powers to have authority over
matters of county concern,
and that certain restrictions
could be Included.
Dr. Arthur Kreisman, Ash
land committee member, sug
gested that certain powers be
defined, such as the right to
acquire property, and regula
tion of matters pertaining to
health and water.
Some members of the com
mittee felt the group was at
tempting to be too restrictive.
The public, as a whole, will
elect county officials who will
not abuse their powers, it was
pointed out.
Some California home rule
charters were thrown out be
cause they were so restrictive
that county government could
not operate freely enough un
der them, a committee mem
ber added.

Vietnamese Boy
'Adopted' byClub
At Power Firm
- The Unci Jack club, an
employees group at the Cali-
fornian Oregon Power com
pany, has financially "adopt
ed" its second child, a 12-year-old
Vietnamese boy, Lu
Van Sanh.
The group is already assist

ed the youngsters through the
Foster Parents' Plan, Inc., 352
Park ave., south New York
City, by promising to contrib
uate $15 a month toward each
child's support for at least
one year.
Lu Van Sanh lives with his
mother, two brothers, aged 6
and 10 months, a sister, 3, and
hig maternal grandmother in
Saigon. The family has been
abandoned by the father and
the mother is ill with tuber
culosis, according to Foster
Parents. The mother, a seam
stress, earns not more than
41 cents a day for the support
of the family of six.
Has On Wooden Bed
Their bouse is about 9 by
24 feet and contains one
wooden bed, a board that
serves as a bed, two small
tables and a food cupboard.
The- agency writes the local
club that "Sanh is a nice-looking
boy with an oval face and
short hair. He makes a good
impression on strangers, is
kind and has a pleasing man
ner that attracts many friends.
A good student, he is now in
the first year of secondary
school and has to pay $1.37
per month in school fees. Aft
er class, he carries water for
Ihe family's use and takes
care of the younger childhen."
The Copco club s contribu
tion will assure him a month
ly cash grant of $8, periodic
distribution of food and cloth
ing parcels, and any special
medical care.
