However, these visitors are staying within the state a shorter period of time. If all tourists seeing Oregon were to remain one extra day, the com bined revenue would be increased by (35,000,000. Proposals made to lengthen tou rists' stays were that advertising will suggest that they see more of Oregon on fast, convenient highways. Furthermore, it will be suggest ed they contact the nearest cham ber pf commerce upon entering Oregon. A folder will be offered to groups holding conventions here, and statement stuffers about Qregon will be offered to out-of-state com panies. .

These groups will plan the "35 Million for One Club" which relates to the additional revenue received if all tourists remained one extra day in Oregon. Membership in the club will be by attendance at a Tourist Host School. There will also be a film for presentation to groups on the tour ist industry here, and the news papers, radio stations and tele vision stations will carry mate rials on the same subject. Chambers of commerce will also receive cards with space provided for the naming of local sites of interest. A bi-monthly or monthly news bulletin possibly will be published during seasons of tourist activity within the state. This entire proposal will be sub mitted in the early fall to the Travel Information Division Ad visory Committee, and upon their final approval, it will be presented at the fall conference of the Ore gon chamber executives. "''eir&otMtgENACE' CLEVELAND (AP) A police man kept watch overnight after a gang of boys Thursday nigrit smashed windows in a house bought by a Negro family in an all-white neighborhood. The purchaser, postal employe Harry McCarthy, has not yet moved into the house, which is vacant. The gang came by bicycles, and resident of the area, Abbie Bloom, said there were about 20 of them, 12 to 17 years old. Mrs. Bloom who called police, thought they came from another neighborhood. The vandals smashed at least eight windows. They pulled drapes from a living room window onto ' I MUST K GROWN'! OlO V4 NOTICE HE KEPT CAlUH'Ml 'MM'?' Accusations Backwash Rumbles In Yake Of Bill WASHINGTON W-A new back wash of accusations rumbled to day in the wake of House-passed labor legislation. , Fighting mad were: 1. The AFL-CIO Executive Coun cil. It charged in a resolution that "the vole against labor last week was part of a legislative package deal between Southern Democrats and Northern Republicans. Amer ica must not tolerate such cynical political maneuvering." ft claimed there was a swap to pass strict labor controls and kill off civil rights legislation. 2. James B. Carey, AFL-CIO vice president. In sharp letters to House members who .voted for the measure he called vindictive, he wrote: "We shall do all in our power to prove to the working men and women in your district that you have cast your lot against them and they should therefore lake appropriate action at the bal lot box." 3. Many House members who got Carey's letters. Their retorts including "attempt at political blackmail" and "a cheap effort at intimidation." j The new outburst stemmed from House passage last week of a labor control bill 'sponsored by Heps. Phil M. Landrum (D-Ga) and Robert P. Griffin (R-Mich). The measure was backed by the Eisenhower -administration. The AFL-CIO had called the bill anti union. Carey delivered Thursday's first punch with his critical letters to the 229 representatives who sup ported the Landrum-Griffin bill He also sent thank you letters to the 201 who voted against the rela lively strict bill. An aide said Ca rey acted as president of the ln- ternational Union of Electrical Workers and with approval of its officers.

By RUTH KING Israel is the next stop for Elsie Dickert who some time ago came back from Alaska and an exciting period to work on the Klamalh Indian Reservation with headquar ters at the Indian Agency.

(API- Otto Standke moved in, and the starlings moved out. All of which makes a bird of a story. For 10 years, residents of this area have been trying to get rid of the starlings, that appear by the thousands in August and mess up the neighborhood. All efforts failed including fire hoses, battleship searchlights, skyrock ets and dishpan pounding. There was a big, hushed crowd of humans at twilight Thursday night when Standke, the starling startler, appeared. Out of a bat tered gray box about the size of a plumber's tool kit the 71-year- old Standke fished out two metal flappers and a metal chime. He hung the chime around his neck and put the flappers on his hands. Alternately banging the flappers and sounding the chime, Standke marched around the area for 45 minutes. At first Ihe starlings. like the spectators, just stood around and listened. Then the winged villains took off, covey alter covey. Standke said he can't say why Ihe noise he makes causes star lings to take it on the lam. He invented his contraption, he said, after his home town of Great Bend, Kan., spent $1,500 for alumi num owls, putting them in the trees to scare the birds. The star lings just roosted on them. NAMED FOR HIM Harvard College, opened in lfiM. was named lor John Harvard, a young cleric in Charlestown, Mas sachusetts. Harvard died in 163S and left his entire library and half of his other property to the strug gling new institution. ing Eskimo families in out of the way places in the northernmost tip of that country, then U.S. ter ritory. She leaves soon for Acre on the Mediterranean, 30 minutes from Haifa. She will serve under the American Friends Service and will be in charge of a nursery school and health clinic with a nurse. She will work closely with an Arabian mayor and hopes to play a part in promoting mutual under standing and faith between the Arabs and the Jews. Word of her new world travels was sent by Elsie Dickert to Mrs.. Emit (Edna) Albrecht, past presi dent and member of the local Sor optimist Club. Enclosed in the let ter was a check for Soroptimist dues in the club for one year Mrs. Dickert's travels began with a career as a psychiatric case worker for the American Red Cross Army Service which took her to various camps in the Unit ed States, later to Kent State Uni versity where she taught. She sought to return to the Red Cross psychiatric field following the death of her husband but changing qualifications in the age bracket prevented it. She learned that there was an opening in the United States Bu reau of Indian Affairs, took the civil service examination, got by without fudging on her age and was sent, to Alaska. With bush pilots she flew in all kinds of weather, under all kinds of conditions, visiting all fami lies in that far region who needed medical aid and other help. She skimmed over rough water in wal rus hide boats and experienced numerous narrow escapes from death. Eventually she came back to the United States and to her assign ment on the Klamath Indian Reser vation. From here she went brief ly to an Indian reservation in Arizona. Mrs. Dickert has had a book of poems published, does profes sional work in metals and is an accomplished musician and photographer.

"Carey's letter doesn't worry me a damn bit," said Landrum "You and too many other auto cratic union bosses are guilty of the unamerican philosophy of class hatred," Rep. Edward J Derwinski (R-IH) wrote in reply to Carey. While angry congressmen were blasting back at Carey, the AFL- CIO Executive Council adopted its "cynical political maneuvering' resolution. The action was taken at the wind-up of the council's summer meetings at Forest Park, Pa. The council charged there was a deal in the House to pass a stiff labor control bill iin exchange for killing off any meaningful civil rights legislation this year. George Meany, federation presi dent, said he had no direct evi dence of any such deal between Southern Dcjmocrals and Northern Republicans, but added he and other AFL-CIO chiefs feel sure there is one. Senate and House conferees work again today on compromis ing differences between the House labor bill and the one passed ear lier by the Senate. The AFL-CIO also opposes the Senate bill, ' but not as strongly as the House measure. -' . , Castro Cites 134 Persons HAVANA (AP) r- Fidel Castro's government so far has charged a total of 134 persons with conspir ing to overthrow the bearded re volutionary leader's regime.
