MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOUD. OREGON FRIDAY, DECEMBER , 1963 Hearings Drag on Timber Workers' Jobless Pay PORTLAND (UPI) -A hear ing to determine whether 7,100 Northwest timber workers are eligible for unemployment bene fits dragged through its third day Thursday despite efforts of a referee to speed it up. M. F. McFarland, chief ap peals referee for the Oregon De partment of Employment, ruled that only one attorney for the timber firms and one for the union could raise objections and conduct arguments regarding a witness. Six lawyers for the Big Six timber operators, four for the International Woodworkers of America and the Lumber and Sawmill Workers Union and two Washington assistant attorneys general have been involved. H. J. Greeley, director of in dustrial relations for Interna tional Paper Co. at Longview, Wash., testified Thursday that the firm did no production work during last summer's lumber strike. Under Oregon and Washington state law, workers idled by a labor dispute are not eligible for unemployment benefits. Union lawyers have implied that last summer's shutdown by the Big Six members was caused not by a labor dispute, but by other factors, such as the economic condition of the lumber industry. MORATORIUM ON DIVORCE PARSONS, Kan. (UPl)-Dis-trict Judge Hal Hyler figures on making this a happy Christmas for some child by not allowing the parents to get a divorce. The judge's Yuletide deed came in the form of a mora torium on divorce actions in his court from Dec. 16 until Jan. 2. Judge Hyler said Thursday the ruling was so that every child in his district would find "the Christmas season a happy one not torn by domestic dis cord and family separation."

ROAD CONSTRUCTION Jackson County Judge Earl Miller used this relief map show ing various road and bridge projects to show the use of 0 and C funds in road building and maintenance in the county. Miller spoke at a meeting of the Southern Oregon Con servation and Tree Farm Association. He said that construction and maintenance of roads and bridges accounted for $1,609,062 or 35 per cent of the county budget. The judge also spoke on the county's growth and men tioned that the county is the only one in Ore gon without a tax levy for the support of county government, yet has the sixth largest budget. The county court reviews road needs with the Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management each year coordinating timber access roads, recreational facilities and other services for all persons. Religion in America Jews Commemorate Struggle Of Forefathers for Freedom By ROBERT M. ANDREWS United Press International At sundown Tuesday (Dec. 10) Jews around the world will light a candle to commemorate their forefathers' struggle for relig ious freedom more than 2,000 years ago. Thus will begin Hanukkah, the eight-day Jewish Festival of Lights. Each succeeding night another candle will be lighted on the menorah, or candelabra, until eight candles are burning on the final day. The holiday marks the vic tory of the army of the Macca bees over the Syrian army dur ing the tyrannical rule of Em peror Antiochus Epiphanes, who had forbidden the Jews under penalty of death to practice their religion. The Maccabees seized the Temple of Jerusalem, which had been looted and denied Dy the Syrians, and it was cleansed and rededicated to God. According to legend, the vessel that contained only enough oil to light the temple menorah for one night lasted in stead for eight days. Today, the honoay is celebrat ed with special services: Pray ers and music in synagogues, homes and religious schools. Children receive gifts or Hanuk kah "glet" (money) from par ents and relatives each of the eight days. The Hebrew word Hanukkah, or Chanuko, means "rededica- tion." The festival also is known as the "Days of Rededication" to religious freedom. Astronaut L. Gordon Cooper Jr., a church-going Methodist, told recently how he went through "stacks and stacks" of paper trying to write a suitable Braver belore his record u.i orbit space flight last May. He finally gave up. Then, near the end of his ao tual flight, a prayer came to him spontaneously, and he said it into the tape recorder of his capsule, Faith 7. He repealed the humble prayer later when he addressed a joint meeting of Congress that honored mm IW Ifll OP NOW! Christmas Candies 5-LB. CAROL BELLS ASSORTED $098 CHOCOLATES Z. 2i2-Lb.

Cooper told the story before a meeting of the National Meth odist Council of Evangelism in Louisville, Ky., where he re ceived a medallion from the World Methodist Council. A New York University psy- ehiatrist has news for those who believe that religious inter-marriage leads to emotional con flicts and eventual mental ills. Dr. Thomas S. Langncr, co author of Life Stress and Men tal Health, reports that a sur vey of 1,660 residents of a mid- town East Side Manhattan neighborhood shows it isn't nec essarily so. Of those interviewed, he said, 28 per cent had married per sons of another religious faith, and showed no more evidence of mental disturbance than their neighbors. Religious inter - marriage oc curred most frequently in the group of highest social and eco nomic status, Langncr said. 'he same group, he added worshipped less frequently and thought religion less important their lives.

Kice, associate professor of chemistry. A $26,000 three-year grant to OSU from the National Science Foundation will enable Dr. Kice to do basic research into or ganic chemical reaction mech anisms and to try to learn the exact sequence of steps in cer tain chemical reactions. A second grant has been re ceived from the Air Force Office of Scientific Research. It is a two-year $20,000 basic research grant to study the oxidation reduction reaction of organic sulfur compounds. Research now under way at OSU will attempt to determine how the reactions of these com pounds take place. Some of these reactions play a key role in the biochemical process, Kice stated. In addition, research on organ ic sulfur compounds is indus trially important, especially to the rubber, plastics and wood products industries. Organic sul fur compounds are becoming commercially 1 m p 0 r tant by products of the Northwest's wood industry and the study of organic chemistry may help to develop new commercial uses for the compounds, according to Kice. Research into organic sulfur compounds in the U. S. has been limited, Kice said, and OSU is one of only a few uni versities doing work in this field. PLUS! DOUBLE SILVER $ STAMPS!
