I The other two. Reps. Al UUman and Walter Norblad, had declined to join this 1 gruup. But when interviewed , by this reporter, both law makers volunteered the infor- mation. None is wealthy, and all are 'largely if not entirely de 1 pendent upon their S22.500 expense and use of other priv ileges of high office for per sonal gain or enjoyment. "Does democracy work for the people'.'" asked Mrs. Green. "This is what the cold war is all about, and those who abuse their positions of responsibility are guilty of hurting democracy in its cold war with totalitarianism." The erosion of public con fidence, she believes, stems from people becoming better informed about, and resent ful of, some of the abuses. She is convinced that a heavy majority of congressmen are honest and conscientious and put in more than a 40-hour week.

Weight Reduction With Drugs Recently Dr. Sami A. Hash im of Columbia university wrolc a paper on the prob lem of reducing weight. He said that many drugs have been proposed for reducing the appetite of the over weight person, but in his ex perience none of these has been entirely satisfactory. The derivatives of amphet amine can, at first, cause a decided decrease in appetite, but Dr. Hashim has found that tolerance soon develops, and then the person has to keep increasing the dose. Be cause of this, some persons become addicted to the drug. I have always refused to give drugs to help people re duce, because then they are templed to cat too much always hoping that the drug will cover up their fail from grace. He believes it is important resent a cross-section of the ! economic community so that I adversaries for or against a particular interest will be out numbered by those with a more detached view. Duncan listed 100 shares of ICOA Life Insurance Co., formed at Salem a few years ago; 14 Class B shares in Southern Oregon Production Credit, stock he was required to buy when seeking a loan to dig wells on an undevel oped 155-acrc tract in the hills three miles east ot Mcd- ford in which he holds a half interest; 3972 B-4 shares and 85 S-l shares of Keystone Mutual Fund. He said he owns no in terest in any corporations which are subject to federal regulatory agencies and he sold his interest in the Med- ford law firm in which he practiced before his election to Congress last fall.

His congressional salary is well over two-thirds of his to tal income, he said. Mrs. Green said the same thing. Duncan said his salary is about two - thirds of his total income. UUman Lost Money Congressman Ullman said his total income is somewhat less than his congressional sal ary at present because he has lost money on outside invest ments. His only assets 'cur rently are several parcels of real estate, most of it in Bak er, his home town, and a few government bonds. "I would favor a disclosure bill." said Ullman.
