Hatfield To Compromise On Reorganization Plan . SALEM (API -Gov. Mark Hat field said Monday he hopes the legislature will pass his program to reorganize the state govern ment, but that "we will settle for! what we can get." This program has run Into con siderable opposition, especially that part which would abolish the Public Welfare Commission and the Board of Control. The governor told his press con ference that the Board of Con trol's power to run state institu tions should be transferred to himself. "The Board of Control," he said, "deals in mechanics, not in programs. I want greater empha sis on developing programs." He said that the state Land Board, of which he is chairman, conducts all of its meetings in public and that anybody can get a hearing who asks for it. The governor made that state- ment in response to a question as to whether he favors a pro posed bill to require the Land Board to hold public hearings before it grants easements for pipelines across ocean beaches, As to a charge by Rep. Grace Peck, D-Portland, that the state Department of Finance and Ad ministration has become a "mon ster," the governor said: "The department has been ex panded. but only by legislative directives ordering it to do so. Morse Backing Portland Case WASHINGTON (AP) - Sen. Wayne Morse, D-Ore., asked President Kennedy Monday to re open Portland s case for more overseas air service. Portland's case was part of the trans-Pacific air route matter in which Civil Aeronautics Board recommendations were disap proved by President Eisenhower last month. Morse said in a letter to the President that he believes the board made the proper decision in recommending that Northwest Airlines be authorized to make flights from Portland on the Great Circle route to the Orient. "But the failure to approve Pan American Airlines service from this major Pacific Northwest terminal would constitute a great impediment to the development of orderly and adequate Pacific overseas air service from Port land," the senator said. "Portland can present a vory strong case for competitive serv ice by Northwest and Pan Amer ica in the trans-Pacific case," Morse said. Changes In Dunes Plan WASHINGTON (AP) Two major revisions in legislation to establish an Oregon dunes nation al seashore recreation area are contained in a bill introduced by Senator Maurine B. Neuberger, D-Ore., Monday. A similar bill was introduced by her husband, the late Demo cratic Sen. Richard L. Neuberger of Oregon, at the last session of Congress. No action on it was taken. She proposed these major re visions: Set up a five-member Oregon dunes advisory board to confer, with the Interior secretary on management policies and zoning standards and provide lor local zoning of private properly within the area's boundaries. Mrs. Neuberger said the pur pose of these changes is to pro vide "maximum local influence on matters relating to development of the seashore, and to minimize the need for the secretary (of Interior) to acquire privately owned properly in the area She told the Senate, we can not legislate on awe-inspiring natural wonder into existence, but we can give protection to unique and majestic works of nature 1 7-1 !."'VJ- -Tr 6U 2-21 -" PAGE 2-A HKRAI.D AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, Oregon iVIu Tuesday,.

COUNT BASIE j and Ml WwM Irnnw OnKM ImMiii J LJ JOE WIUIAMS WEED Residents of the Shas-1 Una Sanitary District will have the opportunity to view opinions and engage in open discussion regarding a new sewage disposal plant at a meeting Tuesday, tea. 28, at 7:30 p.m. in the Sons Me morial Hall George Gentry, State Depart ment of Public Health, local board members and engineer, Oscari Picmmc, will be present for this meeting. The proposed new sewage plant will replace the present Imhoff type sedimentation basin construe ted In 1928 for a population of 1,500. Proper function of the pres ent plant requires continuous cost ly maintenance. Any reconstruc tion of the present system would not make it adequate to serve the needs of the present population. The board studied costs to im prove and maintain the present system and concluded the con struction of oxidation ponds as the most economical if a suitable site was acquired. After survey and study of three sites, the Salanti site north of the Weed Golf Club was determined the most feasible. A survey of district sewage connections in 1957 by the State Department of Health determined 1,740 as the maximum summer population. Since that time the Col lege of the Siskiyous with 200 stu dents has been added to the area along with a housing development with 46 planned houses in build ing progress. The survey showed further growth and development within the Shastina Sanitary District area depend upon development of an adequate sewage disposal system. The developed proposed ponds will enable handling population of 3,000. Sample ballots are now being readied for mailing within the district to the registered residents in the area.

Lecturers program consisted of opening prayer by Lucilc Gray. recitation by Pauline Flowers and for passage of his legislative pro gram. Despite Republican opposition to some proposals, Senate Democra tic Leader Mike Mansfield of Mon tana predicted Kennedy's meas ures will get speedy action in a Congress about ready to buckle down to work after relative in activity during the new Presi dent's first month in office. The Democratic leader called Senate committee chairmen to a meeting later in the day to map program for adequate and prompt consideration" of the Ken nedy program by the Senate. He noted that the Senate had passed on a voice vote Monday a bill to set up a United States travel service to attract foreign tourists to this country. The bill would authorize the gov ernment to spend $5 million the first year on active travel pro motion. The measure is aimed at reducing gold outflow. American tourists spent $1.2 billion more abroad last year than foreign tour ists spent in the United States. Congressional movement was developing on these major items: 1. Education In the House, Speaker Sam Rayburn, D-Tex., gave a go-ahead signal to the fed eral aid to education program the President sent to Congress Mon day. Rayburn, who opposes federal assistance for payment of teach ers' salaries, said he would not "resist" House consideration of a measure containing both this pro vision and federal aid for class room construction. -Noting that the Kennedy pro gram would turn over federal grants So states to use for sal aries or construction as they see fit, Rayburn commented: "They have mellowed it a little.' House Education subcommittees planned simultaneous hearings, probably starting this week, on the school and college sections of the $5.7 billion dollar program. The measure includes a $2.3-bil- lion. three-year program of grants to the states for classroom build ing or raising teachers' salaries, a $577.5-million, five-year program of college scholarships, and long- range loan programs to provide $1.3 billion for college dormitory construction and $1.5 billion for building other college facilities. Mansfield said the Senate will go right ahead with preliminary action on the education program Sen. Wayne Morse, D-Ore., said he hoped a Senate Labor subcom mittee could start hearings next week on the proposal. 2. Emergency unemployment aid extension The House Ways and Means Committee starts closed door sessions aimed at get- crease the minimum by stages from the present $1 to $1.25 an A compromise on the financing nour and bring additional millions reportedly smoothed the way for l0f employes under wage-hour cov agreement on benefit extension up, erage. Mansfield said he expects to 13 weeks. (decisive action today by a Senate In the Senate, Mansfield bowed subcommittee on the same meas to the views of Sen. Harry F. ure. Byrd, D-Va.. that the Finance i of the legislative measures Ken Committee Byrd heads should edv recommended for hioh nri. wait until the House acts before it even holds hearings on the proposal. 3. Aid tor depressed areas Mansfield said he expects to bring a bill for the aid of depressed areas before the Senate next week. Sen. Paul Douglas, D-Ill., said a Banking subcommittee he heads will wind up hearings on the measure with testimony next Tuesday from Secretary of Com merce Luther H. Hodges, Secre tary of Labor Arthur J. Goldberg and Secretary of Agriculture Or ville L. Freeman. But Douglas said he couldn't predict when Chairman A. Willis Robertson, D-Va., who is unen thusiastic about the measure, would call for full committee ac tion. A spokesman for the corres ponding House committee said hearings probably will start with in a week. The bill was introduced early in the Senate and a companion meas ure went into the House Monday. It would set up a $300-million re volving fund for loans to help communities expand or attract in dustry and additional millions for retraining of workers, construc tion of public utilities and plan ning. 4. Social Security Also intro duced Monday in the House was the administration bill to provide! optional Social Security retire ment for men at 62, higher min imum and widows' payments and easing of requirements for com- ority action, there has been least progress so far with housing and Social Security-supported health care for the aged. Democratic strategists appar ently intend to defer action on the medical care bill in hopes of winning over enough Ways and Means Committee members to avoid the fatal setback similar legislation met in that committee last year. Administration recommenda tions for an over-all housing pro gram still are being put together. I "Hl.AtoM! I WAS JUST SHOWW'J&ey THAT rVAS UTTL5.
