doors. Unless the weather is es
pecially bad, Caroline, 5, and
John Jr., 2, can be seen romp

First Lady Jacqueline Ken

on the south lawn which faces
the Washington Monument.
They also are taken for rides'
to nearby parks.
Last week end, Caroline and
her buddies went to the cir

the crowd in the bl'g coliseum
and had a great time of it.
Strolls Outside
Mrs. Kennedy is a great de

flying in the wind.
The first lady aiso can sur

on the lawn where the Ken
nedys want their privacy.

More Effective State
Government Is Urged
If the states do not keep
their governments strong and
effective, they run the risk
of having the federal govern
rnent step in and tell them
what to do. Mrs. Barbara Ash
lev Phillips, speaking to
mcmbUj of Medford Zonta
club at the last meeting, gave
this warning while talking
about the necessity for con
stitutional revision.
Mrs. Phillips, member of a
local committee organized to
spread information about the
proposed revision to be con
sidered by the 1963 leglsla
ture, believes thai under the
present constitution we have
a number of "headless bu
reaucracies" and that the
governor is not being given
the power and responsibility
which he should have to be
effective.
The speaker pointed out
that the need for a new con
stitution has been discussed
for the past 20 years or more,
said that the present docu
ment is filled with material
which should not be a part
of it and thai a committee ap
pointed to draft a new consti
tution did so after months of
hearings, research and work.
The document is being con
sidered by the 1063 legisla
ture and it is believed that it
will be reported out, possibly
after changes, for action by
the state's voters.
Mrs. Phillips said that un
der the present constitution
and with the legislature meet
ir.g only every other year,
budgets and other plans must
be made too far in advance
for efficiency. She added that
the governor has too little
control over the executive
branch of Oregon govern
ment, such as the boards,
commissions and agencies.
"Under the present system,
he cannot maintain a coher
ent direction for these
boards, commissions and
agencies," she stressed. She
added that adequate control
and direction did not neces
sarily mean that the governor
would demand too much uni
formity, or be dictatorial.
Board Discussed
Speaking of the Oregon
Board of Control, which han
dles funds for the state's in
stitutions, Mrs. Phillips said
that in times past money has
been appropriated for thee
Institution! which the Board
of Control then ref vised to
spend. There is now no sys
ten) of checks or controls on
what is being done, she ex
plained, and said "Our cxecu
live hfs no power to do his
Job."
Speaking of courts, Mrs.
Phillips, a lawyer, said that
Oregon needs an integrated
judicial system, and added
that at present the adminis
tration of these courts is poor
and that the results are some
times "bizarre."
She believes that the legis
lature should meet annually;
if full sessions are not needed
yearly, alternate years could
bo devoted to a fiscal session,
she suggested.
Mrs. Phillips also spoke of
legislative appor tionment,
Which she said is now rela
tively automatic, and told
how it is set up.
Changes Suggested
I he speaker said a new
constitution m i g h t provide
for the election of fewer state
officials, possibly only the
governor. He would appoint
the necessary heads of de
psrtmenU, with approval by
the senate. The proposed con
st itution provides for n con
(roller (such an officer could
be either appointed or elect
ed) whose duty it would be
to check on the executive.
Mrs. Phillips urged her
listeners to provide them
selves With copies of the pro
posed constitution and study
It. They may be obtained
from the Committee for Con
stitutional Revision, the State
Capitol, Salem.
The speaker also talked
about the fiscal problems of
Oregon saying they are '"se
rious" and added that the v
is grave concern in the stato
over finding sufficient funds
f o r schools and nee es sa r y
services which the state must
provide. "Wis aren't meeting
our education problems," she
dee la red.
Mrs. Phillips spoke of taxes
and pointed put that under
Oregon's present tax struc
ture, there is too much tax
burden on real property, and
on middle income residents.
She said many believe that
thi tax base should be broad

"Never use
self-polishing wax
on wood floorsf
. . . says Henry M. Tobcy, Research Director of
the world's largest hankrobrt. floor maker
"Self-polishing waxes are great for linoleum, tile, and vinyl
floors but not wood. That's because most of thrtn are
made primarily of synthetic plastics. They simply cannot
be removed from yovr wood floors without damaging the
finish or the wood.
The layers of old self-polishing wax pile up until your
wood floor darkens and discolors!
For this reason, we recommend the use of Bruce Cleaning
Wax or Brace Floor Cleaner on your wood floors. Both
contain a combination of removable liquid paste wax and
waterless wood floor cleaner. They clean; remove the old
wax; and leave a rich, new coat of gleaming paste wax
protection all at the same time.
If you "want a heavy coat of wax, use Bruce Cleaning
Wax. b or lighter
waxing and badly
soiled floors, you'll
prefer Bruce Floor
Cleaner. It's the
right way, the easy
way to keep your
wood floors clean
and bright."
