By DOUGLAS GRIPP and A. H. PEARSON Snlpm-IIiPD-For industry and would-be industry in Oregon, the 1961 legislature was a dream come true; for relieved labor, it happily turned out to be only a nightmare. The industrial bonanza started when the State Land Board-governor, secretary of state and treasurer - was Tennessee Voter Turnout Light Johnson City, Tenn.-(UPD-A relatively light vote was ex pected today ' in an off-year special election to name a representative succeeding the late Rep. B. Carroll Reece, a Republican. Principal candidates were Mrs. Louise Goft Reece. 62, Reece's widow and the Re publican nominee; Democrat W. W. Faw, 68, a state rep resentative, and Kingsport oil man Lee Davis, 38, running as an independent. The House seat from the historically Republican upper east Tennessee 1st District be came vacant March 19 when Reece died of cancer. Berlin Clergyman Asks Forgiveness From Eichmann Jerusalem (UPD A German clergyman today told how he talked a Nazi doctor out of turning him into a human guinea pig by reminding him of his dead grandfather who had been a priest. Dean Heinrich Grueber of the West Berlin Evangelical Church testified against Adolf Eichmann, but asked the for giveness of the man in the bullet proof glass box for do ing so. "I hope the accused will not think badly of me," Grueber said. "I did not come here with hatred in my heart or a feeling of vengeance." Went To Aid of Jews . Although not a Jew him self, Grueber went to their aid from the moment the Nazis proclaimed the terror in Berlin. His activities resulted in his being arrested and sent to a concentration camp where the Nazis knocked out his teeth. Later he' was trans ferred to the Dachau camp ai.d placed in a section re served for priests and pastors who had fallen into disfavor with the Nazis. "I had a heart attack and was no longer fit to work," Grueber said, "People who were not fit to work became human guinea pigs and med ical experiments were per formed upon them., Taken To Clinic "My friends took me to the sick clinic where a doctor ex amined me and addressed me in the usual way: "Swine. He said his grandfather had been a priest. I told him that in accordance with my under standing his grandfather was in heaven. But your grand father has no rest and no peace because he knows what his grandchild is doing. The doctor turned to me and said; "Sir." . "He released me. The next day he sent an ambulance and gave me a certificate to the effect that I was not fit to be kept in camp. After a while I was released." tickled by International Paper Co., Boeing Co., and Shell Oil Co. Atty.. Gen. Robert Y. Thorn ton said new laws were need ed if Oregon was to accommo date these firms. The legisla ture responded wholeheart edly. . The result was these big laws that could mean millions for the state: -Coastal easements for pulp plants and other mills on the hitherto inviolable state-owned Oregon beaches. -Acquisition of the barren 100,000 acre Boardman indus trial site, bordering the Co lumbia river In northeastern Oregon, since leased to Boe ing. . -Board ground rules for leasing seabottom off the 400- mile coast to oil firms, and Columbia riverbottom to min ing interests. Only a few dissenters de clared the boost-Oregon-indus try drive was really a give away, of an irreplacable re source: the land. Oil Bill Tightened The attorney general suc ceeded in getting the oil laws tightened. Spokesmen for the inevita bility of industry overrode cries for the wilderness value of the beaches. The Land Board, however, was put on its toes to see that' the, two remain compatible. The Boeing-Boardman un ion was signed amid hopes it will bear substantial space age growth for Oregon. After a struggle, the legis lature also smiled on power, gas and telephone utilities by giving them exclusive service areas. Since private power now serves 85 per cent of the state's customers, and since the bill would tend to freeze this, it was labeled a slap at public power. AH measures to enhance public power lost. Log truckers wort protec tion from out-of-state compe- tion. The milk industry won price regulations, but similar pleas from gasoline and ciga- Area Toastmasfers Attend Convention Seven Toastmasters from southern Oregon attended the 19th annual district 7 speech contest and convention In Salem recently. They were Robert Gouley, Ashland; Dan Hull, Howard Hopkins, President Robert Hostetter, Area Governor Vince Armstrong, all Of Med ford, , and President Clyde Thompson and Southern Ore g 0 n Contest Representative Jim Cornett, of Grants Pass. Area representatives pre sented their views on improv ing the "Beyond Basic Train ing" program to the group. The possibility of establishing in the Medford area the first beyond basic training toast master club also was dis cussed. Persons interested in such a club may contact Arm strong at SPring 2-7012. District officers also were elected. Armstrong was elect ed junior lieutenant governor. MlflM chances In westbound tshedut. Centurt yew local aatnt UNION PACIFIC For HER in . . .

Mark Hatfield vetoed it. On the side . of protection against industry, the legisla ture passed laws curbing pol lution and billboards, and limiting log export. Labor Score Wins For often-anguished labor, it was a peril-fraught session. The victory lay in defending a precarious beachhead in the House against the onslaught of a "Little Landrum-Griffin" la bor law and a three-way workmen's compensation law that would have transferred millions to private insurers. Senate President Harry Boivin and Sen. Walter Pear son of Portland, both Demo crats, used every maneuver in the book to hurl these measures at the House. " Speaker Robert Duncan and Labor Committee Chair man W. O. Kelsay of Rose-burg,-both Democrats, resist ed each assault. Bills for nurses and firemen, finally approved, nearly were sacri ficed in the often - vicious fight. . Three-way, in dying, pulled into the grave all other im provements that could have been made in the injured worker field this session. Labor was neutral to the one major piece of labor legis lation to pass: State-run elec tions procedures for em ployees to select or reject a union. Unemployment compensa tion laws were liberalized slightly. On the negative side for labor, farm picketing was trimmed a little. Labor - endorsed' minimum wage and "anti-strikebreaker" bills died without kick ing. But far from weeping. labor leaders said they were satisfied to have escaped the session without permanent scars. Wednesday: Highways, jus lice, and general law.
