This Week's Plan for Home Builders
By HIAWATHA ESTES
Farsighted home builders
realize the advantage of plan
ning ample recreation and
living space for all the family
from the very beginning,
rather than attempting to add
or convert rooms later. This
home not only provides a gen
erous living-dining area but
also a large family room
which is partially open to the
kitchen.
A maximum of privacy has
been achieved by locating the
informal living area to the
rear of the design. The family
room is completely separated
from the more formal living
room so the grown-ups and
teenagers can easily entertain
at the same time without one
group necessarily Interfering
with the other. Sliding doors
open from the family room
to the huge patio. A shoulder
high window in the opposite
wall allows flexible furniture
arrangement and cross venti
lation. The family living center
and the food preparation cen
ter, together, offer all the
atmosphere of the much loved
"country" kitchen. Here,
cooking, eating and family
activities arc centered. Note
the large siz caling area and
the wealth of storage spnee,
Including a built-in storage
closet next lo the panlry,
Three-Quarter Bath
A three - quarter bnlh Is
Ideally located otf the service
area for multi-use as it also
opens to the family room. It
features a pullman lavatory
as do the other two baths.
When you separate the
sleeping and living areas, you
not only reduce noise and
traffic but end up with a very
efficient operating plan. These
areas are separated here by
the entry and hall which
opens to the patio.
Roth the living and family
rooms have fireplaces which
are located on outside walls
so as not to take up living
space in the home.
A housewife's dream Is the
generous amount of stornce
space. There are nearly 6C
lineal feet of closets and ward
robes. All bedrooms are spacious.
The master bedroom In ad
tlon to having its own bath
and dressing room has sliding
glass doors opening to the
partially roofed patio.
Clean modern texlures of
tone, glass, wood and cedar
shakes have been used In the
design of the street exterior
of this contemporary home.

Calif.
Freedom Center
Order Requested
Salem - IUPD - The Marion
county district attorney has
asked the circuit court to
order Portland's Freedom
Center and its director, Wal
ter Huss, to file statements of
campaign expenses in connec
tion with the Nov. 8 election.
The request for the order
was filed by District Attorney
Hattie Kremen.
Secretary of State Howell
Appling Jr. had asked Huss to
file a statement because of the
distribution of a pamphlet
about Rep. Edith Green,
Democratic candidate for Con
gress. She was reelected.
Huss denied his organiza
tion was political and denied
any campaign activity.
Appling turned the case
over to the district attorney
for "appropriate action.
Young Peace Corps
Hostage Released
Singapore (UPD Fritz Klat
tenhoff, 19, Battleground,
Wash., a member of the Peace
Corps held hostage four days
by Borneo rebels, was re
leased unhurt by British Com
mandos Wednesday.
Klaltenhoff was taken pris
oner with six Europeans when
Nationalist rebels captured the
town of Limbant, in the Brit
ish colony of Sarawak on the
Island of Borneo, last Satur
day. All were safe and sound.
Six British Commandos
were killed recapturing Lim-
bang Wednesday in a mop-up
operation against rebels who
attempted to push the British
out of Sarawak, Brunei and
North Borneo.
apartheid segregation policy.
The outcome could end the
pro-integration regime of Pre
mier Sir Edgar Whitehead
and, If the Racialists win,
bring Southern Rhodesia un
der threat of civil war.
In contrast to the magni
tude of what is at stake, only
some 100,000 persons out of
Southern Rhodesia's 3 million
population are qualified to
vote in the elections to fill the
legislative assembly's 65
seats. Of the qualified total,
only 13,000 are Africans and
most of them are expected to
boycott the polls.
Reflect Political Power
-The voter figures reflect
the political power ratio be
tween the 225,000 white set
tlers who have governed this
British colony since 1923 and
the 2,930,000 Africans, Asians
and half-castes.
Educated African opinion is
solidly against the govern
ment after its banning of the
territory's only African mass
party, the Zimbabwe African
People's Union (ZAPU), ear
lier this year. This reduced
the elections to mainly a
struggle for power between
"left" and "right" within the
white settlers' community.
Whitehead's official plank
Is "non - racialism." His Uni
ted Federal Party Is based on
the principle of "racial part
nership" which Whitehead re
cently defined as "govern
ment by the civilized, regard
less of color."
Ba Swept Away
Before the election cam
paign started Whitehead told
a party congress that to create
a non-racial state all racial
discrimination must be swept
away.
An election victory for the
United Federal Party (UFP)
he said, would mean an end
to all residential segregation
of the races; secondary
schools would be integrated
and the African franchise
broadened.
Sir Edgar made clear, how
ever, his opinion that hand
ing over the government to
the country's non - white ma
jority would lead to total
chaos. He foresaw a period of
at least 10 years before the
doors to political power could
be opened for all citizens,
black or white, on complete
ly equal terms.
Too Much Away
The party's right wing said,
"Whitehead's gone too far.
He's giving too much away to
the Munts (Africans)."
But when the party con
gress got down to voting on
this policy not a single vote
was raised against it. It was
a triumph for the scholarly,
stone-deaf Whitehead who in
the past four years of his lead
ership in this turbulent ter
ritory has often shown how
to mix stubborness with po
litical subtlety.
With the UFP's right wing
silenced, the program finds
its strongest white opponents
in the Rhodesian Front party.
This party advocates a racial
policy along South African
lines, with residential segre
gation as its main feature.
The Front party has its
strongest support in the rur
al areas where white farmers
fear that African advance
ment will mean the end of
cheap labor. But it is also
gaining support among urban
whites who are shaken by the
speed of desegregation.
Increases His Chances
When Whitehead banned
the African ZAPU party on
charges of incitement to vio
lence and restricted Us leader
Joshua Nkomo to his home
area, he certainly increased
his chances at the polls. Many
settlers, however, make no
secret of their fear that "part
nership" will soon get out of
hand and Whitehead may
have a stiff task convincing
them that compromise is bet
ter than conflict. I
African opinion is solidly
against Whitehead, but Afri
cans will have no chance to
affect the outcome of the elec
tion. With the ZAPU party ban.
ned and no other to take its
place few Africans are ex
pected to vote at all. The big;
question is whether the racial
ist Rodesian Front party can
oust the "non-racial" White
head government.
If it does, most observers
here think Southern Rhodesia
is in for serious trouble - not
excluding a black uprising.
