MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON MONDAY. MARCH 11. 1963 A In the Day's News By FRANK Oregon LEADS THE WAY AGAIN as this dispatch from Salem indicates: In a rare JOINT appeal, labor and management last week urged the stale of Ore gon to prepare to meet the growing impact of automa tion. They called for approv al of a resolution to create an interim committee to map out ways and means to meet the problems of technological unemployment. The resolu tion would create a commit tee of legislators and repre sentatives of labor and indus try to make an overall study of employment problems and potential, and to suggest pro grams and recommend ways to finance them. TVAN CONGLETON of Asso- ciated Oregon Industries and George Brown of the , AFL-CIO both told the sen ' ate committee on state and federal affairs it is time to start NOW. Congleton said: "We must face the fact that automation is becoming seri ; ous. Let's get a head start on the problem we know we are going to have to face." Brown agreed.. : l. "The longer wo wait," he l said, "the more difficult it will be." He added: "The un ions are not against automa tion and technological ad vances. What we are. saying is that, if necessary, we'll , have to find an answer to the : displacement of these peo ple." IT has long been conceded by sound economic thinkers that the power of the people to consume is limited only by their power to PURCHASE. There are two ways to provide the power to purchase: 1. Higher wages. ' 2. Lower prices. fPHE higher wage solution tion when unaccompa nied by greater productivity , defeats itself. It increases ' prices as fast as it increases ' incomes. So nothing is gained. What we need is greater pro . ductivity,' resulting in MUCH LOWER PRICES. If Oregon can find the an swer to that,' it will have done something fantastically valuable to humanity. Auto mation, if unaccompanied by HIGHER PRODUCTION COSTS, including higher tax es, could make it possible to bring prices down to the point where people's ability and Course in Religion Set at St. Mark's A 12-week course in relig ious instruction for adults 'will start at St. Mark's Epis copal church, Medford, Thurs day, March 14, at 8 p.m. in the parish hall.

OOMEHOW- J This problem of producing more tilings at lower prices, so that people can have more things for less money, must be solved if automation is to bring to us the immense bene fits it is capable of bringing to us. Who will solve it? WHY NOT OREGON? OREGON has been a pioneer v' in new ideas. Oregon was the inventor of POPULAR LEGISLATION the initiative, the referendum and the recall. Most states have modeled their initiative and referendum laws on what has come to be known as the OREGON PLAN, which the state of Oregon adopted in 1899 and extended in 1908. Oregon invented the gaso line tax, which made it possi ble to finance vast new high way systems without going bankrupt. CO- Who is better equipped than Oregon to find the solu tion of this modern problem of adapting automation to the job of producing fantastically more things at fantastically lower prices so that people can have fantastically more things for less money? ft .

INVITATION r ' t h&ii v?i - lit DOBIE GILLIS WEDS-Dwayne Hickman, television's Dobie Gillis, and his bride, Carol Chrislensen, an actress and former Miss Rheingold, are shown here Thursday after their marriage at the Hollywood Immaculate Heart church. It was the first marriage for the 28-year-old video star and Miss Christensen, 25. (UPI) , Strictly Personal By Sydney (c) Field Enterprle, Inc. SECRECY A man 1 used to know some years ago, died in New York recently, and when I asked a mutual friend (who happens to be a doctor) the cause of death h e answered "Seer ecy." This was a most provoca tive "reply, and I pressed : Marrl" down the him to let medical barriers and explain what he s a i d. It was really quite simple-and, so the doctor added, fairly common. The man had had two ail ments, one affecting the heart and the other the blood. He went to separate doctors for treatment -and did not tell either doctor about the other ailment, because he did not want to be severely restricted in his diet, his work, or his social life. As a result, the regimen prescribed for one of the ailments adversely affected the other,, and he was car- Space Cookery May Be Problem Los Angcles-IUPll-If an astro naut whirling around the earth in orbit were inclined to boil an egg for himself, he would soon discover that In space there's no such thing as a "three-minute egg." It's likely a "three-orbit egg," even when traveling at 1,700 miles an hour. . Lack of air pressure is one of the many perplexities that man must face when he es capes from earth. And it's lack of pressure that changes the cooking timetable because the temperature of boiling water depends on atmospheric pressure. At sea level, water boils at 212 degrees F., producing enough heat to cook an egg in three minutes. However, in space, where the pressure is near zero, water boils at a much lower temperature, so low is requires hours of boil ing to produce a "three-minute egg." Space engineers at Garrett Air Research have taken ad vantage of this lack of pres sure to cool the astronaut in the Project Mercury capsule. Oxygen circulating through the capsule flows through a I heat exchanger, a device sim , liar to a car radiator. Inside the heat exchanger, water boils at around 60 de grees F., drawing heat out of the oxygen. After the heal is removed, the cool oxygen flows through the astronaut's suit, keeping him comfortable. Hope is not entirely lost for the three-minute space egg however. By using a pressure cooker, the space housewife of the future may increase the pressure, raise the boiling point of water, and once more enjoy a short boiled egg, cooked in three minutes. Portland Lumber, Sports Figure Dies Portland - lUPH - Clay R Brown, Portland lumberman and sports figure, died Sun day. He was 60. Brown was first president ; of the group which brought j out Canadian interests own. I ing the Portland Beaver base ball club in 1955. He was on the board of directors of the Portland hockey team at the I time of his death. He was president of a wholesale lumber firm. Survivors include the wid )w, Dorothy, a daughter and I V SJ two sons. J. Harri ried off before either of his physicians knew what' was happening. This may teem a bizarre lillle tale, but it occurs more often than the layman realizes. More than a cen tury ago, F. B. Winslow, in his book, "Physic and Phy-, sicians." wrote: "Secrecy is commonly mixed up in medical affairs. Some great city practitioners have little closets to indulge this feel ing of fanciful patients who do not want to be seen by their fellow sufferers." Winslow goes one to re late the case of the Comte de Virey." who carried this mystery so far as to make the slightest indisposition a late secret." One day the Count called a surgeon to dress a wound in his leg; and when a sim ilar one broke out on the other, he sent for a different surgeon, so that the disorder ed slate of his limbs might not be known. "A circum stance," adds Winslow "which was the cause of his death." As an ironic footnote, to a person who Inquired for the Count shortly after his death, his secretary said, '"He is dead, but he does not wish it to be known." The recalcitrance of pa tients must be cited as one of the major factors in the mortality tables. Patients who lie about their symptoms, who fall to follow instructions, who pour pills down the drain and toss diets into the fire, who think that merely visit ing a. doctor or holding a pre scription will magically cure them - all these contribute heavily toward the total of medical "failures." Asked about the reception of one of his comedies on opening nigh,t, Oscar Wilde quipped, "Trie play was a success, but the audience was a failure." Likewise, patients can fail doctors quite as much as the reverse; for all therapy involves a collaboration of candor. Search for Boat Victims Called Off Toledo, Ore.-IUPH-A search for the bodies of two men missing and presumed drown ed in a boating acicdent on the Yaquina river near" here last week was called off Sun day after dragging and skin diving operations. Missing were Robert Serv ice of Toledo and John Mayo of Elk City. Searchers looked three days for their bodies. The bodies of three other persons were found Friday. The five persons left Toledo Thursday night in a 12-foot-outboard motor boat. The body of Mrs. Clara Mae Lawson of Sllctz was found caught in a fence about 100 feet from the river's bank in the area Saturday. State po lice said she may have died from a heart attack while climbing the fence. The bodies of Mrs. Ralph Cook, 63, and Hcrschel Small, about 60, both of Toledo, were found Friday in the river near the swamped boat. Both had drowned.
