Revision Group Votes One Change in the Six Per Cent Limitation by 11-3 Count Salem -IUPU- Oregon'! Con stitutional Revision commis lion Saturday approved one change in the 6 per cent lim itation, decided that the gov ernor shouldn't appoint mu nicipal judges, and gave the Slate Civil Service System constitutional mention for the first time. By a vote of 11-3, the com mission adopted a new version nf the 6 per cent limitation on taxing districts. It's the same language that will so before the voters in the November flection, put on the ballot in the 1961 Legislature. The plan would make it easier for districts -to protect their tax bases. Was Ignored A minority report by Sen. Donald H. Husband (R-Eu-gene) to substitute the three pronged plan voted down on the May 18 ballot was Ignored. Recently the commission do-1 shall be more than four years. cided that the governor should have powers to appoint all judges from the Supreme Court on down. But the ques tion of including municipal judges in this was left open. The commission left it up to the legislature to provide for a municipal court system, con tinuing to let cities name their own judges. After considerable discus sion, a new paragraph saying the legislature can provide for a civil service system was ap proved 13-1. All this means it that the present system will continue, but it also means that civil service has some constitutional status now. The commission also: Power To Fir Voted 12-2 to give the governor power to fire any of his appointees, and al.o requiring that no term of of fice in the executive branch Benny Good End Concerts Moscow -IUPIU Benny Good man and the band that is ac- companying him on the first officially-sponsored American jazz tour of Russia leave to. day for Sochi on the Soviet "Riviera." The old maestro of the clari net and his combo wound up three-day stay in Moscow Friday with a jazz concert featuring a Russian folk tune. The Americans will return here later in their tour. Warmest Recaption A capacity audience o f whistling Russians at the Cen tral Army club gave Good man the warmest reception he lias had so far in the tour. He stuck to such old favor ites as "One O'clock Jump," and "Sing, Sing, Sing" for most of the program. The man, Band in Moscow audience, which included a large number of young peo ple, loved It. A top favorite was a Russian-language rendition of "Katyushka" a folk song as popular in Russia as "Star dust" Is In the United States. Her Singing Vocalist Joya S h e r r 1 1 1 brought the house down with her singing of "Katuyshka." The Negro singer said she has gotten over her initial nervousness about singing the song "in Russian, but she still vonders what she will do if she forgets the words. 'You know most of the time, if I forget the words 1 just say they went to the park and held hands. It doesn't make any difference, but here it is different," she told a newsman. Said the governor should appoint the heads of all his executive departments, but subject to approval by a ma jority of the State Senate. Removed as obsolete pro visions for veterans bonuses for which applications can no longer be made. Voting 10-5, the commission Friday rejected a plan to let the governor limit subject matter at special sessions of the legislature. The proposal was made by former Gov. Robert D. Holmes, Portland, who said governors are otten reluctant to call special sessions know ing that once assembled, the legislature can pass as many bills on any number of topics it chooses. And they don't have to be related to the cri sis for which the special ses sion was called. Some time ago, the com mission recommended annual sessions ol the legislature, and Multnomah Circuit Judge Herbert M. Schwab predicted Friday that Oregon eventual ly will have a full-time legis lature the next step after annual sessions. Voting 9-6 the commission approved language in a new state constitution that would set up a state law commission to advise th? governor on ap pointments of judges. It would be up to the legislature to ac tually create the law commis sion. Billy Graham Addresses Biggest Chicago Group Chicago - IUPH - Evangelist Billy Graham, addressing the biggest audience thus far In his Chicago crusade, Friday night urged youth to abandon campus conformity and "wor ship of the goddess of sex" to tollow Christ, Graham told the estimated 35,000 persons who filled the Convention Hall at lakefront McCormick Place that young people nved guidance In their search for security ajd a chal lenge. The evangelist said teen agers1 "live In an insecuno world." Curious Fact "The readiest way to find quick security on the campu? Is through conformity to the group. One nf the curious facts about campus culture Is Ihnt precisely where people talk about being independent and on their own, they prac tice the most rigid conformity and imitation in dress, In speech and in thinking," he said. "The private prayer life might be phrased, 'Let the words of my mouth and the meditations nf my heart be acceptable in thy sight, o gang, my strength and - my redeemer'," he said. Group Loyalty "Many times drinking, sexual promiscuity, cheating and obscenity In speech are simply actions dictated by group loyalty. The real moral problem of many young peo ple is their lack of any authority, not what is right and what is wrong, but who declares what is right and what Is wrong." Graham snid Christ cnuld provide the leadership, direc tion and authority which young students seek.

Mark Hatfield has endorsed in prin ciple a Senate bill pending in Congress that would give preference to Oregon and Washington before any sur plus electric power was ex ported to California by the federal Bonneville Power ad ministration. ' Rut at the same time Hat field proposed two amend ments to S. 3153 which he said were designed to safe guard Oregon interests fur ther. I Drawn Up The BPA drafted the legis lation. Hatfield said his amendments were drawn up after a meeting with Charles F. Luce of Portland, BPA ad ministrator, They would: "Tie down definitions" in the bill, eliminating "lan guage wrangles from develop ing at a later date." Require that proposed contracts for sale of BPA en ergy outside the Pacific North west be circulated among BPA customers in Oregon and Washington before being sign ed. "These two amendments will remove most of my con cern about the protective leg islation," Hatfield said. "I support the principle the bill is trying to achieve, and will support the bill itself if these amendments are accepted." New Canadian Railroad Regulations May Ease Friction Over B.C. Lumber Shipments to U.S. British Ambassador Already Had Mumps Salem-IIJI'II The British con sulate in Seattle sent a mumps bulletin late Friday to the governor's office here. Thursday in Salem, 3-year-old Elizabeth Hatfield, daugh ter of Gov. Mark Hatfield, exposed British Ambassador David Ormsby-Gore to the mumps - - although the Hat fields didn't realize it at the time. The consulate reported calmly that Sir David has al ready hud the mumps. And Mrs. Ormsby-Gore--who ilso was exposed has had the mumps, too. Sir David and his wife re turned to Seattle late Thurs day, and he greeted Prince Philip upon the Prince's ar rival Friday in Seattle - - giv ing the governor's office a .special dose of concern. Vancouver, B. C. - WPI) New Canadian railroad regu lations may be a major step toward easing friction over B.C. lumber expporU to the U.S. market, B.C. forest in dustry officials here have stated. Starting July 11, the Ca nadian Pacific Hailway and the Canadian National Bail way will ' abolish the "15 day hold" policay which per mits B.C. shippers to delay lumber shipments in transit at certain hold points with out demurrage charges. Happ With Chang B. J. Gallagher, manager of the Northern Interior Lum bermen's association in Prince George, said his group is hap py with the change in policy. The 15 - day hold policy sometimes has an adverse ef fect on lumber prices, he said. It encouraged shippers to start rolling their lijjtiber be fore markets had been firm ed up. If the cars were still un sold at the end of the free hold lime, the lumber was sometimes sold at "distress" prices. Gallagher said some seg ments of the industry may be "a little unhappy" about the change. Firm Order Some wholesalers feel the 15 - day hold policy worked to the shippers' advantage. The interior industry is neither large enough nor di versified enough to market their lumber on a firm order basis, they said. "This is a terrific develop ment as far as we are con cerned," said B. M. Hoffmei ster, president of the Council of Forest Industries of B. C- "It will be a tremendous help to the industry here be cause it will help stabilize the market," he added. The 5-day hold policy has been a bone of contention with U.S. lumber producers who claim It gives the Ca nadian producers a competi tive edge in U.S. markets. The American railways abolished the hold policy some time ago. Portland - tUPII - The West Coast Lumbermen's associa tion today called a Canadian decision to revise lumber shipping regulations a ma jor breakthrough. WCLA executive vice pres ident G. C. Edgett said it will "go a long way to help west coast lumbermen who ship by rail and who have suffered because of the advantage en joyed by Canadian shippers." He referred to an announce- Page 2A MedfordITribune MEDFORD, OREGON, SUNDAY, JUNE 3, 1962 ment by Canadian railroads, that they are canceling their 1-5-day free hold June II. The ; free hold has given Canadian shippers free warehousing for lumber in transit while they wait for favorable buyers. Edgett said, however, the j change is just a first step in a program of adjustments needed to make Northwest lumbermen more competitive with Canada. He said all other proposals, including timber pricing, wa- : ter shipping, tariffs and cur rency, require government action. i PIPES CIGARS FOR FATHER'S DAY HEADQUARTERS FOR SMOKERS' SUPPLIES PIPE & GIFT SHOP 3 6 'i So.
