MARCH IS. 1963 New Constitution Needed By Oregon, If Oregon doesn't seize this opportunity to revise its constitution, another may not come along for another 20 years," said Mrs. Barbara Ashley Phillips, Medford at torney, speaking yesterday noon for a meeting of the Eleanor Roosevelt league at the Medford hotel. Mrs. Phil lips believes that revision is of vital importance to the stale. Mrs. Phillips is a member of a citizens committee or ganized to provide informa tion about the effort to draft a new Oregon constitution, She pointed out that the pres ent constitution, drafted and adopted in 1859, is outdated and outmoded in many re spects in spite of having been amended more than 100 times. The lawyer said that under the present constitution, the state's chief executive does not have the power to do his work as he should, and that there is no system of checks for the governor or other members of the board of con trol. "There is nothing more frightening than a headless bureaucracy," she added. "We should have a governor who is not necessarily strong, but responsible." Document Drawn Reminding her listeners that a commission of citizens, representing various parties and walks of life, had drawn up a document for submitting to this legislature, Mrs. Phil lips said she believes that the legislature will report "some thing out" for the ratification of the state's citizens. The document drawn up by the commission provides for only one elected state official, the governor, for a controller to be responsible to the legis lature, and annual sessions of the legislature. She said the document contains a number of "modern concepts" but also retains provisions, such as the initiative and referendum, which are Oregon's traditions. Should Be Broad She reminded her listeners that a constitution should be broad and general, "a skele ton on which to hang a gov ernment." Under the proposed consti tution, the governor would have the power to appoint heads of the various agencies and these appointments would be concurrent with his term. As it is, a governor may only appoint new agency heads when terms expire. He could remove appointees for cause. The proposed constitution would make it possible to achieve some singleness of purpose from these agencies, and would also encourage economy by eliminating dup lication, she believes. The proposed controller would combine certain func tions now exercised in a lim ited area by the secretary of stale and the attorney gen Without Permanent Solutions, Wave Sets, Neutralizing At The Sam Tim Gives Hair Radiant Fluorescent Sheen That Seems To Gow Even In The Dark! ha ird to curl with amazing once ana rinse. minutes . . .

The leg islature could give the con troller full investigatory powers, if needed, she said. Speaking of the annual ses sions, Mrs. Phillips said the legislature would then be able to keep the state's rev enues in line with needs and avoid the crises precipitated by having to budget two or three years ahead as is done today. The current legislature has some 2000 or more bills to consider in about five months. Annual Session Good Annual sessions would en courage more public aware ness of the operation of the state s government, Mrs. Phil lips believes. She points out that when a state is able to manage its own affairs, the less possibility will there be of federal assistance or inter vention. The state that Ignores its responsibilities cannot complain of "big government" when its problems are taken elsewhere, according to Mrs Phillips. The document drawn up by the c i t i z e n s' commission would change the judicial branch to provide that all judges would be appointed by the governor: 80 per cent are appointed now. Judges would run for election at the end of their first term, on their records, and therefore would be subject to removal by the people even though unop posed, and the supreme court would be given the power to initiate changes in the court's rules of procedure. Questions from the group concerned the possibility of adding the office of lieuten ant-governor, doubts concern ing the ability of those seek ing revision to convince the general public of this neces sity, and various other points. There was also an expression of opinion from both the speaker and the membership to the effect that both Repub licans and Democrats should consider constitutional revis ion on the basis of what is best for the state, and not what will benefit one party or the other. Mrs. Frank Christian, presi dent, conducted the session. Business included adoption of new bylaws. Mrs. Christian appointed a research committee on out standing Democratic women; the committee is composed of Mrs. Edward C. Kelly, Mrs. Harlan P. Bosworth, Mrs. Lewis Ulrich and Mrs. Moore Hamilton.

French Dolls To Be Shown At Swem's French fashion dolls from the collection of Mrs. Neil O. Davidson, 1708 Lenora drive, will be displayed in the win dow of Swem's store begin ning Monday, March 18. Mrs. Davidson, who has col lected dolls for the past sev eral years, has more than 400. Many of them are the Bru dolls from France, and dolls from this factory are known among collectors for their beauty and fine workmanship. During World War II the fac tory was destroyed, including the molds from which the heads were made, and the dolls are no longer being man ufactured. Fine Bru dolls are therefore becoming scarcer and collect ors are now paying handsome prices in order to acqiure them. A short time ago Mrs. Davidson displayed a group of dolls at Rogue Valley manor, and many visitors saw the ex hibit during the four-hour show. One of these was Cecile, an excellent Bru which Mrs. Davidson has dressed in a white tea gown of 3 bygone period. The collector made the gown of fine white cotton and lace, and the undercloth ing, which she also made, is trimmed with handmade thread lace. The clothing is as much of a hobby with Mrs. Davidson as are the dolls themselves. In addition to dresses and suits, Mrs. Davidson makes hats and even shoes. Some of the stock ings worn by the dolls are elaborate lacy creatiqns which are many years old. Cecile was bought by a col lector a number of years ago from a Midwest family, but who brought the doll to this country Is not known. Cecile has a fine bisque head and the body is composition. Considered works of art, collector's dolls, of course, are not playthings for children Often they are considered valuable museum pieces; their design clothing and accessor ies reflect something of the times in which they were made.
