Congressional Delegation Votes on Party Lines on HR12 T YVONNE FRANKLIN , "... The purpose has been Mail Tribune to defeat the legislation be- Waihinglon Bureau cause even though it might Washington (Special) - Ore- pass the House it would not gon's congressional delegation have passed the Senate or got pit its vote along party lines ; ten through Conference: and not think a rider on important legislation ii the way to go about it. Republicans who in troduced the amendment har pooned the liberal Democrats on HR 12, leg islation for the con struction of medical fa c i 1 i t ies and student loans. Rep. Walter Norblad (R Ore.), voted a g a i n s t the bill, while the rraokUa three D e m o- crats, Reps. Al Ullman, Edith Green and Robert Duncan vot ed affirmatively. HR 12 provides $175 mil lion in matching grants up to two-thirds of total cost, to be made over three years to help build teaching facilities for medical and dental schools. It also authorizes $61 million in loans to medical students up to $2,000 a year per student. Mrs. Green was successful In persuading the floor lead er of the bill - she had the votes - to offer amendments which would forbid the use of federal money for schools far sectarian purposes. There was soma confusion on this issue. Not for Sectarian Purposes Harris' amendment stated that money cannot "be used for sectarian instruction or place of religious instruction." Some opponents argued that If tha religious organization constructing the facility uses its own money to provide, say, a chapel in a teaching hos pital, that the amendment would bar funds. Harris gave assurance at one point to i protesting mem ber that funds would not be barred if such were done. However at a later point, when asked if funds could be barred if medical ethics of a religious group were taught, he stated that "religious wor ship" would be the barring criteria. The interpretation of the law will be left up to the Surgeon General, Public Health Service, who will ad minister the legislation. The Oregon Democrats dis agreed on another controver sial amendment providing that funds should not go to schools which discriminate because of race, rolnr nr prrori. ITllman ! voted against the Republican amendment which was defeat ed, while Mrs. Green and Duncan marched down the aisle in a teller vole with Re publicans and few Democrats in support. Norblad did not vote, but said he would have voted for it. Adam Clayton Powell was the only one of five Negro members who voted for the amendment. Speaker John it would have resulted In de-! for helping defeat the anti- feating the legislation." Ullman however supports civil rights measures, but does wtm mm m SEN. GAYLORD A. NELSON Memorial Difm.r Speaker Enthusiasm Noted As Part of Reason For Acceptance Enthusiasm for Jackson county's annual Roosevelt Memorial dinner on the part of his U.S. Senate colleagues and other Washington digna taries who preceded him here, as well as personal Invitations from Sen. Wayne L. Morse and Congressman Robert B. Duncan, combined in his ac ceptance as guest speaker for the 13th annual Roosevelt Me morial dinner at Hedrick Jun ior High school Saturday, May 11, at 6:30 p.m. So declared U. S. Sen. Gay lord A. Nelson of Wisconsin to the Roosevelt Memorial Dinner Chairmen Ted Philips and Mrs. -Frank Christian. "I am looking forward to this oc casion," he said. Nelson, a personal friend of President Kennedy, said to be one of the ablest younger members of the U. S. Senate, is close to the president's own age. He is 46. Started as Republican Starting out as a Repub lican (of the LaFollete liberal mould) he was elected to the stale senate as a Democrat McCormack contended that (when only 31 years old. He the amendment would kill the served 10 years, then was mil. Ullman agreed, saying he has never voted for such an amendment. fjBMflBfrQ : EST OF THE BAITS elected governor of Wisconsin in 1958. the second Democrat lo hold this office. He broke a precedent in 1960 by being elected to a second term as governor. Dur- I ing his four years as the j Mdie s cihui executive, ne won i wide acclaim from non-partisan newspapers such as the Milwaukee Journal, for his reorganization of state gov ernment, his revision of a 50- year-old lax system, and his strong championing of educa tion and the conservation of natural resources. In 1962. Governor Nelson unseated the long entrenched Republican. U. S. Sen. Alex ander Wiley, who, with 24 years In office, was still Wis consin's senior senator. He serves on the senate public works and interior and in sular affairs committees in ad dition to sub-committee as signments. Tentative plans are that the speaker will be introduced at the dinner by Congressman Robert B. Duncan, while State Representative James A. Red den will act as master of ceremonies. discrimination amen d m e n t, saying that "it showed where the so-called liberals really stood on civil rights." When Harris was successful in shutting off debate on the amendment, the charges were more insistent. The sponsor of the rider noted that President Kennedy said he lacked the power to withhold funds from southern states that violate Negro's con stitutional rights, but the President went on to say, "I don't think we should establish federal programs which encourage or promote discrimination." Was Right Place Mrs. Green believed that this legislation was the right place to do something about discrimination. She has intro duced legislation that would cut off funds to colleges which discriminate. She expressed dissatisfac tion with the Democratic per formance, especially she said in light of what is currently happening in Alabama and Mississippi where daily acts of violence against Negroes who seek to assert their civil rights are commonplace. Congress rarely votes on controversial racial matters and has left the matter of civil rights primarily to the Executive and the federal courts. Desegregation proceeds slowly because court cases take time and money. As a result southern leaders can say with some accuracy that there is no legislation on the books to do what the courts say must be done in desegre gating schools - because Con gress does not act. And Con gress does not act because southerners are in key posi tions of power. Duncan believes the civil rights issue is our number one social problem. Disturbs Duncan "It disturbs me that we aren't moving faster," he said, "until I look backward and see that we are only 100 years from slavery and that I'm grateful that we have made as much progress as we have "I think we can even see substantial changes in the at titude of the South; but it is not just a southern attitude. Very few communities in the State of Oregon can look down their noses at the South. "We faced this situation in Medford when there was op position to just one Negro family coming into a resides tial area. We can't cast the stone at our southern broth ers. We better get the mote out of our own eye." Miss Mullin Wins Speaking Contest The 1963 public speaking contest sponsored by the Knights of Pythias lodges In ternationally got under way here last week in the Pythian building with senior high stu dents of Jackson county dis cussing the subject of "Rights and Responsibilities." Winner of first place was Miss Linda Mullin of Talent, a senior at Phoenix High school. Because of unforseen cir cumstances in the Josephine county contest they did not place a contestant to compete with Miss Mullin. Therefore the contest scheduled for Tuesday, April 30, has been cancelled, and Miss Mullin au tomatically becomes first place winner in both counties and eligible to compete in the state contest at 8 p.m., Satur day, May 18 in Portland. Second place winner was Dale Hockersmith, 3022 Ma drona lane, a senior at Med ford High; third place honors went to Miss Loraine Hixson senior at Crater High in Central Point. Gifts xuere presented to each speaker by Roland G. Beach of the local lodge Knights of Pythias, sponsors of the contest, in Jackson county.
