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.

SALEM (AP) The Senate
State and Federal Affairs Com
mittee Thursday approved two
House-passed bills to make it pos
sible for International Paper Co.
to establish a big pulp and paper
plant on the Oregon coast near
Gardiner.
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.

Smut Is Target
Of Proposal
In Legislature
SALEM (AP) - Rep. 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.

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'
