The Oregon wagon train will cir . cle for its last bivouac in a field near this small western Oregon town tonight. Saturday it will roll through In . dependence in a triumphal parade. : but the end of the trip the long road from Missouri is now at hand. There is only a mile left (or -Saturday. Two thousand miles are behind. "I'd go tomorrow for another . trip just like this." said Roy Brab ham, wagon builder and driver, his 60 years resting lightly.

He received most of his grade and high school education In Sacred Heart Academy. He ' then attended Reed College, where ' he obtained both a bachelor of Tarts and master of arts degrees, tin addition, Corrigan has done ; post-gr.aduate work at the Univer ; sity of Oregon. ; The new head of the UF edu ; calional division is unmarried. He - enjoys travel, and says work that ; interests him most is done in and - for his educational profession. - The educational division is com- prised of four units teachers and .employes of county system I schools, city schools, Oregon Toch. ; nical Institute and a miscellaneous I group. This division has set. the ; highest campaign record the past ; two years. Traditionally, employes ol these schools have, been among ;!the highest "giving groups." Five of the ll Outstanding Citizenship : Awards, presented annually to em ploye groups with most otistand lng donating records, are held by schools. But the man who rode horse back the whole way as security officer had another view. Said Gil Carnine. fit, "Once in a lifetime i is enough." The party of nearly 30 rode out of Independence, Mo., on a chilly, misting day last April. Former President Harry S. Truman start ed the train with a slashing sweep of his hat that so startled a mule it tried to climb back into one ol the wagons. Mules and horses steadied down as day followed day on the road The people had less chance for that. The party was scarely across the line into Kansas before a mock Indian party swept over the hills and attacked. That sort of thing went on for four months The trip was made to publicize Oregon's 100 years as a state. Sev en covered wagons, herded along the highway by horsemen at front and rear, were served as well by motorized equipment. A truck be came a mobile hay barn and there was a water tank and a kitchen unit. These solved a problem that might have been vexing: where to find feed and fuel beside a modern highway. Despite the modern touch, the wagon train caught people's imag ination. Thousands came to see it at overnight 'stops, motorists drove miles out of their way to catch a glimpse of this old way of travel. Schools were dismissed along the early route. Communities feted the travelers at barbecues. The curious probed lor their stories. "Talk?" said 57-year-old Ben Griffith. "It's like I'd been vac cinated with an Edison needle. The wagons retraced the old Oregon Trail where ruts still showed in Wyoming range-lands and as closely as they could else where on the highways of Kansas, Nebraska, Idaho and Oregon. Some of those who rode the wagons became ill but only two quit before the goal. Those who stuck It out through cloudbursts, desert heal and the nerve-tearing rasp of iron wheels on concrete roads, had company at times to break monotony. Friends would ride a day or two, then go on their way. Children joined some wagons in June when school was out. The final count showed a party of 14 men, 7 women and 7 children. All but three of the original 23 horses and mules com pleted the trip. Alter Saturday's parade Ihe party scatters, most going to their Oregon homes, a few going to Portland to the Oregon Centennial Exposition, where the wagons will be taken for display.

Sidnev orld bet Y animosities and FREE KEYS will be given out by the hundreds by Don' Mens and Boys Wear, 537 Main Street, starting Monday. Soma of the keys will unlock the treasure chest shown here with Gene Favell, owner of the store. In the chest are certificates for free fade-proof, double-knee, guaranteed Levi's for the small fry. Levi Strauss & Company has a new chemical process which makes their Levi's for ages 5 through 12 practically indestructible, according to the firm's promotion. See the store's Sunday advertisement for details on the treasure chest. Lurie, analyst for Josephthal & Co., likens the Khrushchev visit to a fifth wheel for the market. It's something new and com plex added to the market and for the market to worry about, he finds. Noting that it will be six -or eight weeks before a balanced appraisal of the visit can be made, he finds it's significant that the fundamental evidence previously , had indicated the market climate was less exhila rating than it was a year ago at this time. Lurie believes that the at tempted rapprochement could be the excuse for a natural, normal and healthy pause which was dic tated on other grounds, For the long-term view, there's a bright side to the coin of peace ful co-existente, says Lurie. This apart from the probability that a wholesale or overnight revision of our defense program is most unlikely, he says. 'Even if later events were to dictate a change, there would be compensations via the facts that "1. A real understanding could provide a tremendous lift to for eign trade. The world is hungry for our goods and talents. '2. A smaller defense budget would pave the way for tax re ductionand tax reduction is a more potent business force than armament spending.

Lurie notes that everybody isn't happy just now, "which means it's well to re-examine the four legs on which the stock market stool has rested:" Business trend This is the strongest of all the supporting elements. Consumers are buy ing. Capital goods spending is trending sharply upward and state and local government spending still is rising. Supply demand equation De mand is less pressing than it was a year ago because of the lessening of inflation fears plus higher margins and more strin gent regulations. Also the supply of stock is increasing. Industry's new operating effi ciencyThis, Lurie calls the sci ence of professional business management, evidenced by first half reports, the pay-off for the $138 billions invested in new fa cilities during the past five years. Tight money may not be as great a threat as earlier ap peared likely, this market expert believes. If inflationary pressures lessen, there is less need for restrictive credit policies, he ob-i serves. Defense is only one ingredient in the business slew, Lurie finds. "Witness the fact that de fense spending declined $10 bil lion between 1953 and 1953 but the economy nevertheless pros pered and progressed. "Ours is a dynamic economy which rests on many lets such as a technological revolution, the demands which will come from a rising rate of family formations in the 106Os, the good life. I "Summer strength and autumn weakness often have taken place in the past. But it's likewise true that the characteristic of our new type market has been: 11) An ability to correct individual spec ulative excesses from within; 2) At the same time, demon strate demand for specially fa vored issues. That is why I have held and still do that there are individual opportunities even though the market as a whole may be entering a broad trading area.
