Newspaper Page TextPAGE t-A HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, Ore. Friday, February 17, Ml IN THE LEGISLATURE Labor Supports Insurance Measure SALEM AP Legislation to require all motorists to carry li- ability insurance won support Thursday from the Oregon AFL CIO, but insurance companies still oppose it. The Senate Financial Affairs Committee held a hearing on a bill by Sen. Robert W. Straub, D Eugene, to have compulsory in surance. Straub said that compulsory In surance would be fairer than the 1959 law which lets policyholders buy protection against personal injury caused by uninsured mo-j torists. He said that 50,000 motorists in Orecon don't have insurance. J. D. McDonald, president of the Oregon AFL-CIO. and Walter H. Turner, legislative representa tive of the Brotherhood of Rail' road Conductors, said their un ions favor compulsory insurance W. A. Brooks, of the Oregon Automobile Insurance Co., said states which have compulsory in surance are abandoning it and adopting the Oregon system. He doubted that a compulsory insurance law would greatly re' duce the number of uninsured aU' tomobile owners. George E. Birnie, of the Associ ation of Casualty and Surety Com panies, said compulsory insur ance would reduce the total amount of money available to in sure motorists. Continuous Shows Sot. from 9:30 o.m.

The bills would allow the com pany to construct a line across the beach to deposit waste in the ocean, ana to dam iwo iresnwa ter lakes to use in the manufac turing process. The company plans to spend more than $30 million. The committee rejected amend ments by Rep. Beulah Hand, D- Milwaukic. Her amendments would have allowed the state to revoke the casements at any time, force the Land Board to report to the legislature on any easements it grants, and preclude a company from collecting damages if ease ments were revoked. Sen. Robert W. Straub, D-Eu- Eene, had dratted an amendment to order the Land Board to hold public hearings before it grants casements. ' But he decided against submitting it to the com' mittee.

Ed Fad-, clcy, D-Eugcne, Thursday intro duced a bill in the House aimed at controlling obscene literature. Fadclcy said his bill was intro duced because he believed that other proposals were either un constitutional or not effective. Fadclcy said protection of chil dren was an important innovation in his bill. ."Material directed to an audi- encelof children or youth would be iudced on a standard of ob sccnity for that group, but adults could still have material that might nol be acceptable for chil dren," 'he said. Fadcley said the measure would not impose censorship. He said dissemination of obscene material or possession of It with, intent to disseminate would be punishable. The bill would permit testimony on the artistic or literary merit of the material and a jury would decide whether It was obscene. Reorganization Bill Approved SALEM (AP) The Senate State and Federal Affairs Com mittee Thursday approved Gov. Mark O. Hatfield's bill to create a department of commerce. It is Uie first of the governor s reorganization bills to be ap proved by a committee. The department ot commerce would include the state banking, corporation, insurance, real es tate, and planning and develop ment agencies. The committee, however, voted against including the travel and information division within the new department. It would remain within the state Highs-ay Commission. DAVID BRUNS, 18, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Bran nan, 880 California Ave nue, senior at Klamath Union High School, hat been nominated by Con gressman Al Ullman as a candidate for appointment to the Air Force Academy. He has lived here 15 yean and attended city schools. Photo by Bob Anderson, Guderian Studio, Owner Fined For Violations SALEM (AP) - Public Utility Commissioner Joncl C. Hill Thurs day fined the owner of a Klamath Falls moving and storage com pany $2,800 for illegal operations. The complaint filed by James E. Singleton, PUC director of; transportation, charged George J. Hobart of Klamath Moving & Storage with 28 counts of trans porting goods of Air Force per sonnel without proper authority. Singleton said Hobart does not hold a permit that authorizes him to haul household goods. ' Singleton said Hobart had leased his trucks to A. J. Dunn of Paisley who had a Derm it to liiHiil tit goods and then proceed ed to use the trucks to fulfill the Air Force contract. Hobart said he believed the ar rangement within the law and said he merely managed the busi ness, as an agent for Dunn under the lease.. The Air Force contracting offi cer at the base, Harry F. Keat ing, testified that Hobart acted an individual when the con tract was signed and mentioned no agent relationship. Hill In ruling on the case said he found no evidence other than an oral statement by Hobart that an agent relationship existed. Hill said the evidence indicat ed that Hobart retained posses sion of the leased tracks and the business, and exercised full con trol over the trucks with Dunn's participation in the business and profits non-exislcnt. ' I Man Indicted PORTLAND (AP) - A federal I grand jury Thursday indicted A. Roy Martin of Halsey on a charge of embezzlement. He is accused of taking funds from the Halsey Branch of the Bank of Lebanon. The indictment states he embezzled $6,300 in March, 1959, and $3,000 from June to August, 1W0. Well, after a few days the Aire dale wouldn't drink anything but beer. He turned up his nose at his water pan and then he'd go over to the icebox and sit there and cry. Yesterday was the last straw. The dog got the hiccups. He hicked for two hours straight and thin seemed to be getting weak so we called the vet. The vet said dogs can get crocked just like humans and to let him sleep it off. He also said to get the dog off the beer. My son sneaks him beer when no one is looking. What can we do about this? WORRIED MOTHER Dear Mother: Don't blame this on the Navy. Your son sounds as if he's been Kooksville from 'way back. Tell him he's being cruel to the dog and insist that he stop the foolishness or yon'll find another home for the poor mutt. Dear Ann: You were wrong when you advised parents to tell children they are adopted. This is my story: We adopted an infant three days old. His mother didn't want him We gave this boy a lovely home, the best of everything, a college education and we bought him a car for graduation. Today he's 35 years old, an engineer and doing well. Recently he said, I suppose I should be grateful to you but I would have been just as well off in an orphanage. You people are strangers to me." He would not have these feel ings if he didn't know he was adopted. I'm very sorry we told him.-W.M.C. Dear W.M.C.: The knowledge that he is adopted did not change his feelings toward you. The re lationship was never a good one. He was skilled at keeping his true emotions hidden, as many children are. I'd like to hear from other adopted children on this and I'm betting you're outnum bered 100 to one. Dear Ann: Like so many others I have a problem I can't solve alone. I've been married 13 years. We have two children one in school, and a small boy almost four. I get up and make breakfast for myself and the girl and then I send her off to school. My wife sleeps till noon. When the boy gets up he wanders around the house; stands on a chair, gets into the bread box and makes himself jam sandwiches. I'm afraid' he'll hurt himself one of these days. (Some evenings there is no dinner prepared and I have to make it). How can I make her see that it's a wife's responsibility to take care of her family? Her idea of living is to start playing gin-rummy at 9 p.m. and get to bed at 1 a.m. Please help me. LOST Dear Lost: You need more help than I can give you In a single letter. Tell your wife that she must go with you to a marriage counselor or a clergyman. She's living a shameful parasitic exis tencc. You must make every effort to see that she gets the outside help that she needs for her sake as well as for the sake of the family. PETER W. McSWAIN, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Mc Swain, 2415 Corvallit' Street, has been nominat. ed by Congressman Al Ull man as a candidate ' for appointment to the Navel Academy and the Mer chant Marine Academy. McSwain, 17, a senior at Klamath Union High School, came, here in 1957 from New Hampshire. He was born in Maine.
