Mrs. Green said that it was her understanding that there were several million dollars in pledg ed funds from industry and oth er sources in the Portland area to bring an Oregon graduate center into being. But she spoke with perplexity over the slow ness of concrete plans to devel op at the Oregon level. Important Step "Two years ago I invited James Webb, head of the Na tional Aeronautics and Space Administration, to come to Port land and talk with business and industrial leaders about the pos sibilities of getting space age industries into Oregon," she said, "and Webb told them that one of the most important things was to get a graduate research center." "Other cities have the same idea," she warned, stressing that she could not urge too strongly that Oregonians be ready with strong plans if they want to share in the federal money and the space age industry. Mrs. Green predicted that NASA within the next few years will he second only to the De fense Department in the amount of funds expended in loans and grants for research and other studies through America's col leges and universities, The NASA contracts, she said, are clustered around the big research centers, such as the Massachusetts Institute of Tech nology, Cal. Tech., and the Uni versity of California at Berkeley. She noted that there will be strong competition for federal funds by other states and there was no assurance that Oregon would automatically share in the federal money for a re search center, unlike the auto matic allocation of construction money for undergraduate facilities. All funds in the construction bill are to be allocated at the State level, with exception of the money for the graduate re search centers. The Commis sioner of Education in Washing ton, D. C. will determine which states are granted construction money (up to one-third) on a first come, first served basis. she said, according to the strength of their plans.

The committee plans and directs the annual conferences on en gineering in medicine and biology. cause of the inadequacy of plans submitted oy officials in Port land. Educators, scientists, busi ness, industrial and civic lead ers in Oregon, working with Gov. Mark Hatfield and the State Board of Planning and De velopment, have been formulat ing plans for the research cen ter for the past three years. There is no state money pres ently alloted for such a graduate center. "We have been working this week with an agency trying to get them into Oregon," Mrs. Green said, "and the first ques tion they asked was 'have you a graduate research center?' We answered that this is coming, that the people in Oregon are working together and have made tentative plans for this. Having a center will make all the dif ference in the world as to wheth er or not we're successful." The proposed center would allow private and public colleges and universities to share in re search and study facilities which none could individually support. Five independent colleges Lew is and Clark, Linfield, Reed, University of Portland, Willam ette university and Pacific Uni versity have pledged funds for initial planning expenses. The center also has the support of the Portland Junior Chamber of Commerce as well. The location of the center has not been decided upon. Besides Mrs. Green, Reps. Robert B. Duncan and Al Ull- man voted for the college aid bill. Rep. Walter Norblad voted against it. n BARD'S INN RESTAURANT Ashland 6 A.M. 10 P.M. 7 DAYS PER WEEK Banquet Room WEDNESDAY LAST 2 DAYS They fact an unknown world of advantura Children 50c Students 75c Adult. $1.00 te& rut it h Walt Disney fmm pilMnlt jomnm y-f TECHNICOlOft Mi From the trcnchcstUSiS Seattle S-1 Spokane 4R Yakima 56 Eureka "!
