    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.

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

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.

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.

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.
