Sews
By FRANK JENKINS
Let's talk today about cattle
and cattlemen. The occasion is
tlie Oregon Angus Association's
High Country Angus Sale held at
the Klamath County Fairgrounds
yesterday and the Rotary Club's
cattlemen's luncheon on Friday.
The luncheon was a fascinating
affair. It brought together not
only members of the Angus As
sociation but cattlemen specializ
ing in other breeds from all over
the Klamath Country.
The striking part of it was that
here was a group of men who
had come together to talk not
about the PROBLEMS of their
industry but about their indus
try's PROGRESS. There was no
talk about SURPLUSES and
what to do with them. Instead, the
talk was all about how to pro
duce more anid better beef so
that people may have more and
better meat to eat.
In these days, that is most un
usual.
Question:
Why are there no beef surplus
es to worry about?
There could be beef surpluses
Since 1930, the number of cattle
in the United Stales has in
creased by 55 per cent. In this
same period, the number of peo
ple has increased by only 47 per
cent.
So-
In a period when the cattle to
tal has been increasing faster than
the population total and when
other staple foods have been pil
ing up and piling up until the
surpluses are bursting the walls
of the warehouses all over tnc
country, why is there no surplus
of beef?
The answer, I think, is this
The cattlemen have been wise
enough to keep the nose of the
government camel out from under
the cattle tent.
That must be about the long
and the short of it.
That suggests another question
WHY have the cattlemen been
wise enough to keep the nose of
the government camel out from
under the cattle tent?
The only answer 1 can think of
is that they are just THAT KIND
OF PEOPLE.
This answer was confirmed at
the Rotary Club's cattlemen's
luncheon on Friday by Lyle Hoyt.
sales manager of tlie Oregon An
gus Association and managing ed

News, when in a lively and inter
esting talk he gave this version
of tlie Cattleman's Creed:
"I do not choose to be a com
mon man. It is my right to be
un:inmon if I can. I seek OP
PORTUNITY not security.
"I do not wish to be a kept
citizen, humbled and dulled by
having tlie stale look alter me.
I want to take u calculated risk
to dream and to build, to fail or
succeed.
"I refuse to baiter incentive for
the dole. I prefer the challenge of
life to the guaranteed existence;
the thrill of fulfillment to the
stale calm of Utopia. I will nol
trade my independence for bene
ficences nor my dignity for a
hand-out.

master nor bend to any threat.

Elated scientists, successful af
ter 15 attempts to launch the un

may have a preliminary report
within two days on whether the

containing a recording tape was
undamaged.
"The blue box is in perfect con
dition and this is what we are
most interested in," lid said. "How
wonderful it came down here
(where there are no trees)."
Tlie findings may show whether
water vapor, carbon dioxide and
possibly othar gases that lend
themselves to support of life forms

KARACHI, Pakistan UPII -
Communist China Saturday sign
ed a border agreement with Paki

their territorial claims, but show

The Pakistani Foreign Office
announced that the agreement
was signed in Peking Saturday,

miles of disputed territory along
a 300-mile line of mountainous
frontier. n.
It said the agreement gave
Pakistan 1,350 square miles, in
eluding 750 square miles it had
not previously owned, while China
retained 2,050 square miles, all of
which had been marked out as
Chinese territory by a British

14 miles west of Pulaski. It was
in good condition but will not be
used again to lift instruments into

SALEM lUPl) Spectators sal
breathlessly silent Friday as two
parents of children who had been
molested pleaded for enactment of
tougher sex oflcnsc laws.
The testimony came during the
first public hearing by the House
Judiciary Committee on a 5 -bill
package of sex offender laws.
Five hundred people were on hand
when the session began, and more
than 100 remained five hours later
when the session was recessed un
til March 12.
More than 30 witnesses ap
peared.
Mrs. John Gaughcr, Portland
told the committee a man who
molested her 6-year-old daughter
and the 10-year-ofd daughter of a
neighbor was still free. She said
the atlackcr, 60, had admitted his!
crime, but was free on bail
"Why?" she asked.
James Montgomery, a member
of the Portland YMCA hoard, told
of his 10-year-old daughter being
molested. He recited how he tried
in vain for three years to get the
man convicted.
Montgomery also told the
shocked audience that he had
been molested at the age of 12.
He explained he lived in a thinly
populated rural area, and was
afraid to mention the incident to
his father, and "had no ncighborsl
to talk to."
In a sometimes halting voice
he related how the experience did
nol excile his emotions at t h c
lime, but as he grew older and
his emotions matured be began to
feel his normal urges were im
moral.
"I had an unbalanced cvahia
tion of sex." he said. "I didn't
know if I was wrong or that child
hood excrience was wrong."
He pleaded (or enactment of the
five sex bills. cscialy the con
trovcrsial civil commitment meas
ure.
Portland Attorney Jonathan
Newman presented tlie American
Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) ar
gument against the civil commit
ment bill.
He said the measure, I1BI120,
would allow civil commitment un
der a process not tolerated I n
criminal law. He said tlie bill was
of doubtful constitutionality.
He stressed that a person Is
entitled to the safeguards provided
by criminal statutes. He said tlie
hill did not call for findings of
fact before commitment could occur.
Multnomah Counly District At
torney George Van Hoomison said
he supported all five bills, but
warned lliey would not solve the
problem. He termed the civil com
milment bill "most modest," and
recommended the wording of the
proposal be simplified.

Court Gets
Strike Plea
SAN FRANCISCO (UPD-A no-
strike injunction against the
Brotherhood of Railway Clerks
was before a federal court Satur
day, but the Southern Pacific said
1 lie union wlis engaged only in
"procedural maneuvers."
The railroad said the union s
petition Friday to the U.S. Dis
trict Court in Son Francisco has
no effect on the restraining order
issued Tuesday by Superior Judge
James T. O'Kccfe of San Mateo
County.
The Injunction in O'Kccfe's
court was obtained by the com
pany just hours before the clerks
planned their oft-postponed strike
against tlie West's lurgest rau
road.
Tlio clerks were forbidden to
strike before a March 8 hearing
in Judge O'Kccfe's court.
The clerks, in asking tlie feder
al court to take jurisdiction over
the San Mateo County order, said
the complaint in tlie Superior
Court violated a federal law tlie
Railway Labor Act. "The action
is a civil action ol which tins
court has original jurisdiction,
the union said.
Sen. Grenfell
Found Guilty
PORTLAND (UPD William
Grenfell, a former stain senator
whose political ambitions were
dampened by a fatal traffic crash
last year, was found guilty Fn
day of failing to remain at the
scene of an accident.
A Circuit Court jury of eight
women and four men returned the
verdict only a little more than an
iiour after being given the case.
The vote was ll-l.
"I think the Jury made a ter
rible mistake," Grenfell calmly
told newsmen alter receiving the
decision.

SALEM (UPD - Another elec

through the legislature as the 1963 '
session Saturday ended its seventh

and Senate employes at a cost of
$19,296.
Republican Shirley Field late
Friday termed the order a "colos

Democratic legislative leadership.
As she spoke, the Ways and
Means Committee already had
moved earlier in the day to ward
off blows expected over tlie type
writer order.
The committee ordered Its fis
cal officer to study the order and
report back.
The budget-cutling committee
has been eliminating such modern
equipment from state agency
budget requests.
"We may be accused of acting
at cross purposes," Rep. Stafford
Hanscll told other committee
members, "for the legislature' s

are allowing."
House Speaker Clarence Barton
called tlie order an economy
move. He said the old typewriters
required a full time repair man.
The new ones, he said, would go
to state agencies alter the session.
Miss Field said an excessive
sum was paid for the machines.
She said Barton exceeded his au

She added she has been to'd
many of the secretaries do not

There was some progress' on
serious matters during tlie week.
Thoughts of Senate and House
Tax Committee members began
to jell on how to meet the state's
revenue problem. The informal
outlines of their concensus ui
