Release Report
In releasing the report Wil
liam J. Moshofsky, chairman
of the 24-member council of
business and professional men
and women of. Oregon, said:
"It doesn't make sense to
continue handing out huge
, sums of welfare money (more
! than 5108,000,000 per bienni
i um to 170,000 persons receiv
ing monetary or service aid)
without a realistic effort to
motivate and work more ef
fectively with the recipients.
Even a small degree of success
would more than pay the cost
of additional caseworkers."
Conclusions Listed
Pointing to the demon
strated relation of delinquen
cy and crime to the quality of
! casework performed in Ore
gon and across the nation, the
OCCD reports concludes that
competent casework can be a
vital force in the prevention
of crime and delinquency, as
I well as helping welfare recip
! icnts become self-sustaining:
that there is a great deal of
i evidence that the level of case
i work in the public assistance
division in Oregon is inade
quate, that is, the caseload is
I three to five times higher than
the rccomemnded national

average; that the child wel
fare division now is restrict
ing '.he size of its caseloads,
but is turning away ease, and
that in dependency and ne
glect situations, foster, and
shelter care services and serv
ices to children in their own
homes are in heavy demand.
Recommendation
The council, therefore, has
made several recommenda
tions. Casework services of
the child welfare division
must be expanded to enable
the division to perform criti
cally needed protective serv
ices for dependent, neglected
or delinquent children likely
later to become serious prob
lems for society.
If the public welfare de
partment's new case classifica
tion and planning program in
Multnomah and Jackson coun
ties proves effective in hasten
ing rehabilitation through in
tensive casework, it should
be expanded throughout the
state.
Expansion of casework in
public welfare automatically
would require additional qual
ified caseworkers, already in
extremely short supply. Thus
the public welfare depart
ment, the state legislature, ed
ucational institution and the
public should provide more
suitable training programs for
needed personnel.
Hope Offered 1
"The initial extra invest
ment which may be required
to increase -the quality and
quantity of casework services
in Oregon's public welfare
program offers the best hope
of reducing the rapidly spiral
ing public welfare costs and
related costs such as juvenile
delinquency and crime," the
Oregon council concludes.
"OCCD stands ready to sup
port and assist efforts to
achieve action on these recommendations."

Supply of Fresh
Vegetables Near
Seasonal Peak
Washington -OIPII- The Ag
riculture department says sup
plies of fresh vegetables will
be at or near their seasonal
peak during the next four to
six weeks.
Local production will add
to marketings from commer
cial areas. The volume of sum
mer vegetables is expected to
be close to that of last sum
mer. Among the more important
items, smaller production is
indicated for summer celery,
lettuce, spinach and early
summer potatoes, the depart
ment said in a review of the
vegetable situation. Larger
crops are in prospect for sum
mer cabbage, cucumbers, snap
beans, and early summer pep
pers. Moderately more can
taloupes and watermelons are
in prospect.
Over-all supplies of both
canned and frozen vegetables
in the 1962-63 season are like
ly to be the same to slightly
larger than those of last sea
son. All major items are ex
pected to be in adequate to
heavy supply. Both packer
and retail prices of canned
and frozen vegetables prob
ably will average near those
of last season.

HECTIC 10 YEARS - For Olho Bell, shown with his son
Carl, the last 10 years have been a nightmare following
charges that he was a turncoat and allegedly collaborated
with the Chinese Communists in a Korean prisoner of war
camp. (UPI)
Things Looking Up
For Gl Branded as
Turncoat in Korea
Olympia. Wash. - OIPli -How
long does it take a man
to live down the charge that
he betrayed his country?
For Otho G. Bell, 31, it
was about 10 years.
Bell was one of several
soldiers who were dishonor
ably discharged from the
Army after being accused of
collaborating with the Chi
nese Communists in a Ko
rean prisoner of war camp.
For years, Bell said, he was
shackled to the Hrand "turn
coat." But during the past year or
so, things have improved for
Bell, his wife, Jewell, and
their four children.
Would Rather Hang
Bell said he had encounter
ed "no prejudice whatever"
in recent months. Just one
year ago, he had said he
would "rather hang" than
continue life branded as a
turncoat.

London University
Professor To Visit
Eugene - Louis A. Reid,
professor of philosophy at the
University of London, will be
a visiting professor in phil
osophy at the University of
Oregon during the 1962-63
school year.
Philosophy department
head, Alburey Castell said
that Reid would teach one ele
mentary philosophy course in
the Honors college for fresh
men and sophomores; an aes
thetics course at the senior
and graduate level; and one
graduate seminar in meta
physics. ReL', a frequent contributor
to scholarly journals, has pub
lished several books. "A Study
in Aesthetics," written in 1931
and revised In 1954, is dis
cussed by Jacques Barzun,
provost of Columbia univer
sity and dean of the graduate
school as "the only work since
Santayana that expounds a
philosophy of art while giv
ing evidence that the little
three-letter word is to the
author a living reality. And
Reid's aesthetics is the more
catholic and truer of the
two . . ."
Reid serves on the execu
tive committee of the Royal
added, "when there is work
to be found, I'll find it."
Bell has built a wooden
house on some land he pur
chased in a rural district east
of here,
"There's still a lot to be
done," he said motioning to
the unpainted walls and clut
tered interior. "But I'm get
ting there."
Bell remained in Red China
for 18 months after the end
of the Korean war. But he
steadfastly denies that he was
a traitor.
He said he hoped that his
case would be brought to
court eventually so that he
would gel the chance to clear
his name.
Jurisdiction Lost ;
The U. S. Supreme Court
ruled that Bell, and others
who remained with the Com
munists, could not be tried
by courts martial on collabor
ation charges because the
Army lost jurisdiction when
it discharged them.
In another case, the Su
preme Court ruled that Bell
was entitled to $1,455 prisoner-of-war
pay. That was more
than a year ago, but he said
he still has not received the
money.
"The lawyer says I'll gel
the money sometime," he
said, "but I haven't, seen it
yet."
Bell is a native of Mississip
pi, but said he has decided to
make Washington his home.
By many standards, Bell
still is far from successful.
But he feels that he is on the
way up.
"I was drawing relief for
a while," he said, "but I don't
need it now."

Study Conducted
By University
Psychologist
Eugene - Children's ac
ceptance or rejection c! their
proper sex roles influences
the development of their in
terest patterns and vocation
al choices, according to the
results of a 16-year study at
the University of Oregon.
Dr. Leona E. Tyler, pro
fessor of psychology, has is
sued her final report on a
long-range study of the de
velopment of vocational and
other interests in children
which she began in 1946.
Starting in early grade j
school, Dr. Tyler traced the
same group of Eugene, Ore., I
children through graduation
from high school in the long
est term study of this partic
ular aspect of human growth
-the development of interests
-ever undertaken.
The children were given
psychological tests which as
sessed their interests, special
abilities, and personal - social
characteristics in the first,
fourth, eighth, and twelfth
grades. In addition, in high
school they were tested for
vocational interests. Of the
original 287 children in the
study, 145 completed the en
tire scries of tests.
The study was supported
by the university graduate
school's office of scientific
and scholarly research.
In addition to specific find
ings, the project has led Dr.
Tyler to suggest a new ap
proach to the study of the
"dynamic structures for se
lecting among life's possibili
ties." Dr. Tyler's report deals
principally with two special
aspects of the study - the de-1
velopment of career interests j
girls and scientific inter-!
ests in boys. Both these inter
ests show up by the age of !
4 in lho!i children who will
develop tnem, and there are
some aspects of temperament
and personality which pre
cede them, the report states.
