THURSDAY. NOVtMBLH 22, 1962 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON National Service Corps Studied by Committee By JOHN A. GOLDSMITH "But for many Americans schools and recreation centers state level, on the relationship The Attorney General's re Washington -OT- President Kennedy has announced ap pointment of a seven-man cab inet level committee to study the possibility of a program within the United States pat terned after the Peace Corps. The President named his brother, Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kennedy, to head the task force. His announcement in dicated that the new group will carry through on a "fa vorable preliminary study" compiled by the Attorney General at the President's re quest. The White House announce ment quoted the Attorney General's report as stating: "The President's challenge to all Americans to ask what they can do for their country has had an initial answer in there is stilj a paradox-a de sire to serve but no clear path to meaningful volunteer com mitment. We need to offer visible avenues for service to these people," the Attorney General's report said. The President asked his new committee to consider all aspects of a national service program. Kennedy said the seven-man group will study guide lines in the Attorney General's report which high light the needs of such groups as migratory workers and American Indians. The preliminary report stressed that some 32 million persons in the United States live at a lower economic level than the nation is capable of providing for its citizens. Among domestic problem areas suggested by the Attor ney General were slum mental hospitals, Indian reser vations, migrant labor camps and correctional institutions. The report said there is a shortage of trained workers in all these fields. Volunteers, directed by professionals could lighten the burden, the report said. Specifically the President asked the committee to study possible program objectives, fields where the program could be most useful, and probable response to the op portunity to serve. He also asked the group to report on the relationship between the proposed program and public and private agencies at the with other volunteer pro grams being considered by the federal government, on the organization and administra tion of the program, the size and makeup of a volunteer corps, training requirements and estimated costs. The new committee is to report its findings by next Jan. 1. In his preliminary report, Robert Kennedy suggested that domestic corpsmen should work under local di rection. One principal goal, his report said, would be to focus attention on the need for more local volunteer work. port also suggested that the new National Service Corpl be open to all ages ranging from high school graduates to retired persons. It suggested a "relatively small" corps with pay to cover living expense" plus a "modest" separation ! lowance. The White House announce ment said the appointment of the new committee results from a long-standing interest by the President in a National Service Corps. It said the At torney General's study waJ compiled during the past two months at the President's re quest. the exemplary support of the Here are GIFTS of Lasting Pleasure! Peace Corps. I JMT.

Promotion of Wood Products in Area Urged by Belleview Man Promotion, revised building codes and research were em phasized as means of develop ing greater wood products' markets during the recent meeting of the Southern Ore gon Conservation and Tree Farm association at the Rogue Valley Country club. Merridith Vind. a building code specialist for the Na tional Lumber Manufacturers' association. Bcllview, Wash., stressed the importance of modernizing out-dated build ing codes. In many cases, Vlnd said, standardization of existing codes is enough to make it easier for builders to specify wood. He cited the example of St. Louis, Mo., where the maze of some 600 or more codes causa builders to use other than wood products. Codes May Be Changed Vind pointed out three ways in which codes may be chang ed: (1) by personal pressure by local interests, (2) panic legislation in response to a calamity or natural disaster where building codes or lack of codes were blamed for the mishap. (3) investigative work and tedious tests resulting in recommended code changes based on research. Vind recommended investi gation and tests and noted the mmt - will ...--irar We have many things to be thankful for on this Thanksgiving Day. JCF JACKSON COUNTY FEDERAL SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSN. Home Office - 2 East Main, Mcdford Ashland Branch - 337 East Main, Ashland NLMA is now doing this. He complimented the local lum bermen for their support of the research, but deplored the. delay between research re sults and the requested change In codes. R. D. McPherson, NLMA wood promotion field representative, briefly report ed on a Medford meeting in which forest products interests met with school officials to discuss the use of wood prod ucts in future public school buildings. Well Received He noted the Industry story was well received and school board members and school ad ministrators seemed sympa thetic to use of wood where It could be used competitive ly. McPherson cautioned against expecting greater use of wood than local codes would allow, but urged alert ness to future plans for pub lic buildings so wood use sug gestions can be made. After the bids are let it is too late, he added. The promotion specialist suggested development of a local forest products Informa tion ccnlcr where local archi tects and builders could seek specialized information on questions involving use of wood products in construe tion. Development of new forest product materials and re search on better wood uses hold great promise for ex panded markets, McPherson said. Initial planning lias started on the formation of a resource committee to help builders and others, Bruce Blew, presi dent of the local forest prod ucts industry association, said.
