Mentally
Program Subject of Meeting
The Jackson county program
for mentally retarded will not
have an industrial snop train
ing program this year and pos
sibly not for some time, as a re
sult of a meeting with a group
of educators and representa
tives of the county rural school
board yesterday in Central
Point.
Main problem was how to
avoid severe liabilities to Crater
High school area in which the
program would be operated, and
possible liabilities involving the
rural board, liabilities which
possibly could not be covered by
insurance.
A special three-man commit
tee of the rural school board
will write the attorney general
for his opinion as to the possi
ble liabilities arising out of
such a program. It also will
inquire as to local insurance
coverage available.
Must Apply Directly
The rural board must apply
directly to the attorney general
for an opinion and not to the
district attorney's office, ac
cording to a recent legal opin
ion. This could take a month or
more.
However, the foundation for
a new building to house the
shop training program at Mt.
Pitt Lumber company must be
poured this month or early next
month to avoid fall rains. From
past experience it could take
more than a month to receive
the required opinion, informa
tion as to insurance and have
the rural board act on the pro
posed program.
David Harms, high school in
structor in the program for men
tally retarded, had worked out
a plan with Mt. Pitt Lumber
company in which the company
would erect the building, pro
vide machinery, materials and
produce orders for an industry
type training program.
Provide Instructor
It also would provide a man
ual training instructor as a part
time foreman.
The rural board would be re
quired to provide $1,500 annual
rent for the building and liabil
ity insurance. (Mt. Pitt would
make its books available to the
rural board at any time for in
spection.) The students would be trained
In proper work habits and skills
while turning out such items as
grade stakes for the state high
way commission. The lumber
company, after selling the fin
ished product would pay the
school system at 40 cents an
hour per pupil time in the shop.
Ed Collins, of the Mt. Pitt Lum
ber company, estimated the ex
penses to the school system
would be offset by the project
earnings.
Not Company Employees
Collins said the pupils could
not be company employees nor
could they be considered sub
contractors to the company due
to the company's position in in
terstate commerce.
Harms said the class would
consist of 10 to 13 boys from 15
to 18 years old. Other possible
employers such as service sta
tion owners and grocers hesti
tate to employ this group be
cause they are unskilled and

slow to learn. The proposed
training program would make
the boys self-sufficient and give
them a feeling of success instead
of failure, he said.
Working in the lumber indus
try training situation would
equip them for work suitable to
this area, Harms noted. The
girls in the county-wide high
school class are being placed in
work-training programs such as
cook's assistant and clerical
work, he added.
Consider A Program
County School Superintendent
Alf Mekvold noted that local
educators have long considered
such a program, but liabilities
involved had pretty well tied
their hands.
"This is a firmly unresolved
question," Assistant County
School Superintendent Dealous
Cox noted.
A meeting held in Eugene last
September with the Oregon La
bor commission, and the work
man's compensation group fail
ed to provide any answers to
the problem, Mekvold added.

gram would be similiar to a
school woodworking shop and
involve no more liabilities.
But such a shop uses "com
petent students," Sam Harbison,
chairman of the special com
mittee, remarked.
The school liability situation
is rapidly changing, Mekvold
interjected and cited a foot
ball accident in eastern Ore
gon recently.
"Our district or board was
never consulted on this pro
gram. I didn't know about it
until I read it in the paper,"

law says the distrtict is re
sponsible. We plan to take this
program over ourselves next
year, anyway."
John Spangler, special com
mittee member, suggested a
non-profit organization be form
ed. However, Harbison said the
trend to hide behind non-profit
charters, schools, and charitable
organizations is drawing to a
close due to recent court de

Representative Notes
Oregon Is
(Continued from Page One)
Representative Eymann noted
Oregon is at the crossroads. It
is the only state which uses the
initiative and referendum so ex
tensively. No tax bill can oe
passed into law automatically.
There must be a 90-day period
following the legislative session
to allow residents to petition
that the measure be submitted
to a vote.
The state legislature felt if it
waited until the normal Novem
ber election period the possible
resulting cut in the budget would
be severe, Eymann explained.
Oregon is one of the few states
which has no deficit budget
spending.
In listing the potential areas
for cuts, Kennedy pointed out
that the game commission ex
penditures cannot be reduced
since its income is from hunt
ing, fishing licenses and game
tags and not from the state gen
eral fund. The state highway
commission also uses no gen
eral funds. Its money comes
from gas taxes.
"Even if all general agencies
were abolished, the state would
still need $6 million to meet its
deficit," Kennedy said.
Listing possible cuts, he men
tioned a possible $15 to $30 mil
lion cut from basic school
funds, elimination or cuts in pro
grams for blind children, physi
c a 1 1 y handicapped, retarded
children and able and gifted.

coming up with an answer.
Of the total expenditures for
federal, state and local govern'
ment, only 11.7 per cent go to
the public schools and 1.9 per
cent for higher education, Mek

pays 61 per cent of the schools'

Never Reached 50 Per Cent
State aid when originated was
37 per cent of the schools' sup

has increased over the years,
Mekvold said.

taxes yet considering their ca

loopholes, and (5) giving Oregon
a better tax structure for indus

district's policy to grant permis

it tne meeting was for public
information and no admission
charge was collected.
Dr. Mayfield also reported on
a meeting with union and con
tractor representatives concern
ing school district construction.
The meeting, he said, apparent
ly stemmed from construction
of temporary classrooms.
Constructed by District
He pointed out that district
personnel constructed the build
ings, noting that no additional
workers were hired for the job
and it was the only way they
could have been constructed
because of the amount of money
budgeted for them. ,
Dr. Mayfield told the repre
sentatives that in the future if
temporary buildings are antici
pated, estimates will be obtain
ed, funds included in the budget,
and bids called for construction
of them.

architects who have been work
ing on the Lone Pine school ad
dition, and authorized purchase
