Important Item of Year
PORTLAND (UPI) - Rep.
Robert Duncan (D-Ore.) Friday
called the proposed power Inter
tie between the Pacific North
west and California the most
important matter C 'gress will
consider this year as far as the
Northwest was concerned.
In a speech before the City
Club at its weekly luncheon he
described the proposal argu
ment over the proposal as "a
life and death struggle,"
Duncan, former Oregon House
Speaker from Medford, said that
tne Bonneville Power Adminis
tration has an annual operating
loss of $18 million and "yet is
dumping $33 million worth of
water into the ocean."
"There is no market yet for
this surplus in the Northwest
but there is a demand in Los
Angeles," he said.
However, he added that a bill
to assure the region of first call
on power generated at federal
dams in the. Columbia Basin
was a necessity.

SALE M(UPI) -The Ways
and Means Committee voted
Friday to give the governor al
lotment control over basic
school support, but was unable
to decide whether a one-shot
revenue speedup should be
adopted.
Sen. L. w. Newory m-Asn-
land) and Rep. Stafford Hansel!
R - Hermiston) opposed giving
school allotment control to Gov.
Mark Hatfield in the informal
poll.
The vote was taken after two
days of testimony on proposed
reductions for welfare state in.
stitutions, and education. It is
not binding because the com
mittee will not begin formal
deliberations until the special
session begins Monday.
Ways and Means members
had hoped to be able to agree
on basic policy questions so re
commendations could be pre
sented to the House and Senate
caucuses Sunday night. How
ever, members felt there were
still too many unanswered ques-1
tions.
One - Shot Plan Debated
The deadlock over the one-shot
plan centered around a disagree
ment over whether the gover
nor's $12 million plan or the $20
million plan suggested by hen.
Alfred Corbctt (D - Portland)
should be considered or wheth
er the one-shot idea should be
abandoned because it might add
to problems next biennium.
The question of whether budg
et reductions should be consid
ered temporary or permanent
dominated Friday's deliberations.
Sen. Walter Leth (R-Salem)
said It was a decision that had
to be made by legislators, by
state agencies.
His comments came alter
Chancellor Roy Lleuallen said
he considered higher education's
proposed cuthacks temporary.
(weral legislators said tney
might not go along with higher
education's plan to increase en
trance requirements and tuition
Ices.
Licuallcn said no major cuts
in educational television had
been planned because "we as
sume this is a temporary crisis.
We do not want to eliminate or
cripple activities that would be
hard to re-establish."
Freeman Holmcr, finance
and administration director, said
additions to Institution operating
budgets, and programs such as
vocational rehabilitation and pa
role and probation would have
first priority of restoration of
"small amounts" of money were
available.
He said recovery of "large
sums," more than ?? million
would give priority to restora
tion of capital construction pro
jects such as the Portland State
College science building, Camp
bell Hall at Oregon College of
Education, community college
Duildings, and fairview Home.

No Verdict Yet
In Fraud Case
DENVER (UPI) A U. S,
District Court jury failed to
reach a verdict Friday in the
trial of two building supply com
pany officials accused of fraud
in connection witn r eaerai Hous
ing Administration home im
provement loans.
The jury recessed until Tues
day morning, after the Veterans
Day weekend, by Judge Hameia
Chilson.
Defendants are Theodore J.
Venable, 44, of Medford, Ore.,
and Thomas M. Roth, 32, of
Rockford, 111., former employes
of Statewide Builders Supply Co.
of Denver.
Chilson directed acquittal of
a third defendant, Mrs. Margery
Kinehole Lytle, 38, of Salt Lake
City. However, she and five oth
er Statewide employes face sim
ilar charges in other cases.
They were accused of enticing
Drosnective customers for
aluminum siding to apply for
1 FHA loans by telling homeown
I ers their houses were selected
las show places by Reynolds
I Aluminum Co. The customers
were promised bonuses that
were never paid, the govern-
1 said.
Hayne has said he is not be
hind the recall effort but cannot
say "whether I will take a posi
tion ii it opens.
Greer claims he has the or
ganization to collect the proper
number of signatures for an
election. He has backing from
a handful of former volunteer
firemen who resigned when
Hayne was fired.
Ed Boatright, former Port
land fireman, has been appoint
ed fire chief to replace Hi.ync.
The Linn County Clerk's office
said Greer will need to collect
324 signatures in Ward 1, 315
in Ward 2, and 204 in Ward 3.
To put the recall of the mayor
on a ballot he will need 842
signatures.
Greer says he has "replace
ments" if the recall movement
is successful but will not state
who they are.
Christmas Carols
OK In Beaverfon
Schools After All
BEAVERTON (UPI)-The su
perintendent of the Beaverton
School District says students
will be able to sing Christmas
carols as part the MUlny ob
servance after
Monday night, Dr liwmas
Woods recommended a policy
which would ban carols or other
religious aspects of Christmas
His three-pnrt policy, aimed at
separating religious indoctrina
tion from teaching about relig
ion was, he said, in line with
recent U.S. Supreme Court de
cisions. The policy was to come be
fore the full school board for a
vote Dec. 2.
But Friday night Woods said
he has been swamped with tele
phone calls from parents in the
district who objected to his
policy.
Woods indicated the meaning
of his directive was miscon
strued. "We plan to maintain an ob
servance of Christmas and Eas
ter which will be favorable to
religion, but we plan to put
the stress on the music, artis
tic and cultural aspects, not on
the deep religious aspects of
the holidays," he said.
He maintained that religious
instruction was the function of
the home and church, not the
schools.

Landing at Albany
Made By Mistake
SEATTLE (UPI) - A West
Coast Airlines F27 prop jet
landed unexpectedly at Albany,
Ore., Thursday night when the
crew mistook the airport there
for the Salem, Ore., airport
where it was scheduled to land.
The plane was on a flight
from San Francisco with sched
uled stops at Eugene, Ore., and
Salem. The flight, normally
scheduled to land in Salem at
9:30 p.m., was running late and

annual convention here Friday.
of newsmen in handling trial
stories, and a managing editor
suggested more compliance on
the part of the legal fraternity
in a conference on news. cover
age of the courts here Friday.
Robert Notson, managing edi
tor of the Orcgonian, criticized
a Senate bill proposed by Sen.
Wayne Morse, (D-Ore.), which
Notson said would choke off the
right of the public to pre-trial
information.
The bill would make release
of any information except that
on file with the court punishable
by a fine of not less than $500.
Notson said relatively few
cases get to trial. In Multnomah
County, he set the figure at 20
per cent, meaning that under
the Morse bill 80 per cent of
the cases would be disposed of
University of Oregon Law
School, said self restraint on the
part of newsmen will be a ma
jor factor in continuing freedom
of the press.
Hollis said there are few legal
restraints left on news coverage
and self-restraint by reporters is
the only way by which persons
before the courts can be assured
of justice.
He u r g e d reporters to fami
licarizc themselves and their
readers with the workings of
the courtroom and to explain
law terms in their copy as a
matter of steady practice.
The conference is attempting
to bring out the views of both
lawyers and newsmen in a ser
ies of panel discussions and
talks. : .
The conference was attended
by a number of representatives
of news media in Jackson Coun
ty including Joe Cowley of the
Mail Tribune.
