MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON TUESDAY, APRIL 30. ItU Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF p K. CHESTERTON once remarked, "The thing I hate we most about an argument is that it always interrupts a discussion." Chesterton is also credited with the story of the wily Dancut who finally was caught by the king's troopers. The king, an addict of games and rid dles, told the bandit, "You may make a state ment. If you tell the truth in it, you will be shot. If you lie, you will be hanged." The bandit, without hesitation, put every thing in a fine dither by declaring, "Sire, I am going to be hung." We Lawrence, well-loved Cleveland scribe, received this little confession from one of his readers: "Perhaps I'm Just a perverse creature, but wherever I read a story about the U.N., and see the name U. Thant, it briiigs out the I Thall in me!" a An American tourist gazed in awe at India's famous Taj Mahal. "And to think," he told his wife, "they were able to do it before anybody even had heard of such a thing as foreign eid!"

New Constitution Intended To Strengthen Government A 5 Editor's note: The House gives Us verdict soon on a proposed new constitution. Interest hat focused on a few substantive changes. This is the second in a series. Br ANN H. PEARSON Salem - lUrt - One intent of a new Oregon constitution is to strengthen each of the three arms of government -executive, legislative and judicial. Trail Riders Plan Sunday Breakfast The Medford Trail Riders will hold a breakfast ride, Sunday, May 5, at George Mcllne's Pioneer Village in Jacksonville, members have announced. The public is invited. Breakfast will be served from 9 a.m. until noon. Breakfast will be followed by a ride and all riders and the public are invited to par ticipate in both. It is on the executive branch that the legislative committees on constitutional revision have taken their firmest stand. The committees have called for two statewide elective ot ficers. One, the governor, would be the chief of all state ad ministration. The other, the secretary of state, would be a "watchdog," a check on the administration, whose sole job would be to review state operations through post auditing. As a second step in streng thening the executive branch, the new constitution would gather all the state adminis trative agencies, boards and commissions into not more than 20 departments. Headed by Appointees The departments would be headed by officers appointed by the governor and con firmed by the Senate. The governor also would have the power of removal. Below the department heads, career of ficers could serve. MEDFORD MUNICIPAL COURT violation of V Clyde Price, rule. S10. R basa Ri.-hard Mace Griffin, excessive noise. So.

BANKER DIES Portland niPIi Funeral will be held, here Saturday for Ira T. Walker, who was prominent in Portland bank ing and investment circles. He died last Wednesday while on tour at Rome. Italy. He was 78. Oregon presently has three constitutional elective exec utive officers: The governor, secretary of state and treas urer. Two more are provided for by law, the attorney gen eral and labor commissioner. All five share administration, even though they may be rivals. And Oregon now has some 140 agencies, boards, depart ments, and commissions, some of which are nearly independ ent. It was only after considera tion of many alternatives, that the legislative committee settled on two elective offi cers with seperate tasks and a ceiling of 20 departments. The decision was very close to the proposal made by the Commission on Constitutional Revision, which wrote the proposed document that the legislative committees have been revising It is the greatest change in basic governmental frame work proposed in the new constitution. The thinking, expressed by the commission and the com mittees, is this: Today, authority is dif fused. Officers and agencies can obstruct each other. When a job is badly done it is often difficult to tell who is to blame. Many boards and com missioners are safely isolated from the governor and the voters. Under the proposed consti tution, there would be a clear- Campaign Starts by TB Group on Chronic Cough The Jackson County Tuber culosis and Health association, along with tuberculosis as sociations through out the United state:, is this month starting a campaign on chronic cough and shortness of breath, according to Ches ter Irish, president ot the local association. This marks the first nation wide educational effort In the broad field of respiratory dis eases, Irish said, and is being done because it is felt tuber culosis cannot be eradicated until 'respiratory diseases are controlled. He added that these chest conditions which Include such diseases as em physema, bronchitis, asthma, fibrosis and cancer of the lung constitute the greatest single recurring cause of occupation al disability among the young and mlddleaged. For the present, the cam paign will consist of a pro gram to urge Individuals with chronic cough and shortness of breath to seek medical care As a step in this direction, Irish urged Jackson county residents to have a chest x-ray at the Sacred Heart hospital clinic operated by the associ ation. The clinic will be open Wednesday, May 1, from 7 to 9 p.m. for the convenience of those who cannot attend the Thursday afternoon clinic. er !!! of authority tfOSB.i to bottom, and a of a"COunubu lowest level to I through department harts, to the governor. The governor would have the. power ot state administra tion, and the responsibility for how it is done. Strengthen External Chassis The effect would h to re duce checks within the ex ecutive branch while strength ening external cheeks: The legislature, the courts, the "watchdog" secretary of state, the press and the people, who could fix praise or blame squarely. Reorganisation could not be done under the present con stitution. It would have to be done under the new one. The legislative committee did much soul searching on whether the Home, Senate and people would accept changes in traditional offices and agencies. They decided if a "constitution lor the future" was to be written, this was one point on which they could not waver. 7018 Choose a short or longer length for this favorite jacket that tops everything.
