Duncan Discusses Problems of Fourth District at Luncheon
Congressman - elect Robert
B. Duncan, paraphrasing 18th
century English Stales man
Edmund Burke, said Monday,
When you elect an official,
you elect not his vote but his
judgment.
Addressing the Med lord
Chamber of Commerce
Roundtable at its noon lunch
eon, Duncan sketched some of
the problems of the fourth dis
trict and outlined his general
approach to them.
He said he has held a num
ber of meetings all over the
district in the last few weeks
in an effort to get the views
of his constituents on what
they think should be accom
plished in the next session of
congress.
"This job really begins the
morning after election," Dun
can said, "even though the
swearing in doesn't occur un
til after Jan. 1."
Visits Dr. Durno ,
He said he recently spent a
"splendid evening" with his
predecessor in office. Dr. Ed
win R. Durno, who advised
him on the present status of
a number of pending matters
which affect the fourth dis
trict, and offered Duncan ac
cess to his files in order to
preserve "continuity of office."
Duncan said he had also re
cently conferred with Sen,
Wayne Morse to discuss means
of securing a supplemental
appropriation in the next ses
sion to keep the Rogue Basin
project on schedule and mov
ing ahead.
Turning to other problems
of the district, Duncan said
that every port community on
tne coast is interested in im
proving its economic condi
tion, . and their community
leaders have spoken to him
abbut projects involving ex
tending their jetties or deep
ening their channels in efforts
to encourage sports fishing
and various barging opera
tions.
ier Education
Budget Discussed;
SOC Plans Approved
Portland - (WD - A discus
sion of budget needs was on
the agenda today as the State
Board of Higher Education
went into the second day of
its monthly meeting here.
The budget problem in
cludes Gov. Mark Hatfield's
proposed $45 million bond is
sue for higher education
buildings during the next four
years. The board had called
for a $47 million capital out
lay in the next two years.
Board President William E.
Walsh said the discussion also
Covered proposed cuts in oper
ational spending. He said a
preliminary review of Hat
field's proposed $405 million
budget indicates a "critical"
reduction in operational ex
penditures. The Hatfield budget is a
record, but the higher educa
tion system is growing even
faster.
The board heard an archi
tectural plea Monday from its
building committee cnairman,
J. W. Forrester Jr. He said
he hoped the board would act
to prevent future dormitories
from looking like "so many
concrete apple boxes."
Board member Cheryl S.
MacNaughton urged a family
study center at Oregon State
university.
"One third of our enroll
ment is made up of women,
and we are still educating
them for men's work," she
said. "It Is time we did some
thing." . The oroDosed $500,000 fa
cillty would include actual
living quarters for a small
number of home economics
majors.
The building committee ap
proved preliminary plans for
a student health service build-
Economic Incentive
Some economic incentive
for expanded road construc
tion' in the district, Duncan
said, could be supplied by the
need to increase and Improve
access to recreation areas.
The mining industry should
provide a further incentive.
'The hills and mountains
the district still contain
millions of dollars worth of
minerals that could contribute
substantially to the economy,"
he said.
Duncan pointed to the gen
eral need for diversification
of industry in many counties
of the district, but added that
some areas have already
taken steps in that direction.
He cited the recent construc
tion of some metallurgical
plants in the vicinity of Al
bany as an example.
Praises Growers
He praised area pear grow
ers for their "aggressive" ef
forts to open up overseas mar
kets to counteract the surplus
of pears which has depressed
the market recently! He urged
rye grass growers, who have
had some problems lately, to
explore possibilities in a sim
ilar direction.
"As we grow more than can
be consumed here in this
country," Duncan said, "we
must remember that there is
no surplus so long as there
are 1 hungry people in the
world." .
He said he felt the solutions
to the complex problems in
the various industries In the
district should originate in the
industries them selves. He
characterized a congressman's
role as that of liaison between
the people and the govern
ment. ,
In connection with that, he
urged the people of the fourth
district to feel free to use his
office whenever it could be
of service to them. He said he
is establishing a full-time of
fice in Eugene, and is con
sidering the1 possibility of
opening another office, prob
ably in Mcdford, at least on a
part-time basis, so that it
would not be necessary for
constituents to call or write
Washington every time they
had a problem.
In a question and answer
session after his talk, Duncan
reiterated his earlier position
that postmaslerships should
be under civil service. By and
large he said he was opposed
to the patronage system,
though cognizant of its role in
the two-parly political system.
The Dunes issue is still a
"live one," he said. "Lack of
decision on this problem has
helped to cause economic
stagnation in that area," Dun
can said, "and some decision
must be reached soon. ' He
said he feels there in increas
ing support for his compro
mise plan.
