Billboard Question Discussed by Chamber's Governmental Committee The billboard Question came I tourist and convention com ! ooeratinn rnmmiltrp whii-h t individual is 9 uviinllv Han.w-iures. hut heransp nf etriHn I mnndn4 that fiirlhm. Hi4t, k Millar ka Ann. nn. . AiinHnn..n ' . . The billboard question came before the governmental op erations committee of ' the Medford Chamber of Com merce last week when Dale Bearrcll of Pulver's Motel plead for "support of the tour ist, committee's position in maintaining and building a iftronger economy through providing the best tourist in formation possible compatible with standardization and good taste of the-billboards." . Hearrcll stated that the committee (the chamber's tourist and convention com' mittee) unanimously passed a motion asking that regulated billboards be permitted on the elevated freeway through Medford. He maintained that curtailment of such billboards adversely affected Oregon's third largest industry, tour ism, and as a consequence in jured the wayside industries serving Medford and the state. Suggest Anolli.t Chance Robert D. Heffernan, Jr., chairman of the governmental operations committee, which is considering legislation, sug gested that the committee give Hearrcll another oppor tunity to present his position after the mayor's special com mittee reports back on its regan vated freeway signs The chamber committee al so devoted considerable time to a discussion of House Bill 1129, which permits the dis trict attorneys to instigate cir cuit court proceedings to de termine whether a suspected individual is a sexually dan gcrous person. v Dr. Paul Bray spoke in sup port of the measure. He staled that the bill docs provide for a hearing and a trial by jury, if demanded by the accused. He further stated that just be cause Oregon does not now have prescribed treatment and facilities to house and treat sexually dangerous persons is no indictment of the bill. Voices Objections He voiced objections to the comments along this line in an editorial in the Mail Tribune. A few years ago, lie explained his stand, there were no known cardiac proce dures, but because of strides in medical research, due to need, these procedures have been developed. Such would be the case. Dr. Bray argued, with a new field such as sex ually dangerous persons. Some committee members expressed concern for the per sonal liberties of an accused individual under the restric tions of the measure. Chairman Heffernan recom mended that further study be given the measure and that it be brought before the commit tee again. Opposes House Bill County Judge Earl Miller spoke before the committee in opposition to House Bill 1288, which permits public employ ees to join labor organizations for purposes of representation and collective bargaining with the employer. SECTION D PAGES 1 to 8 MEDFORDtITRIBUNE Miller said he docs not op. pose the union principle, be lieves that this is not an ef fective bill, but permissive in nature and has no place in respect to public employees. He said the budget committee unanimously opposed the bill when it appeared in the 1961 legislature. The Jackson County Em ployees association also op posed it and so did the cham ber of commerce. The governmental opera tions committee went on rec ord unanimously opposing the bill following Miller's presentation. Attorney Dewev Wilson the fourth guest appearing be fore the committee. He spoke on the service being offered the legislature by the lawyers of the state.
