Sheriffs Reflect on Living A reflective license plate could save your life some day. License plates that reflect light from headlights pre vent many rear-end and head-on collisions at night, when most accidents happen. Last month, the 18,500-member National Sheriffs’ as sociation unanimously endorsed reflective plates at its annual convention. Sheriff Malcom McLeod of Lumberton, N.C., the as sociation’s new president, said: “We think they are an excellent law enforcement and safety aid. We wish they were used in every state.” Since May, reflective plates have been endorsed at two large gatherings of safety experts — the 13-state Midwest States Civilian - Military Traffic Safety con ference, and the Western Civilian and Military Safety Coordinators conference. Here are the facts which convinced the professionals that reflective plates prevent accidents: 1. They make parked or disabled cars visible more than 1,000 feet sooner than cars with ordinary painted plates. 2. Burned-out rear lights are one of the five most frequent vehicle defects. Without rear lights, a slow- moving car is prone to a collision from the rear. Re flective license plates don’t burn out. 3. Burned-out front lights are another of the five most common vehicle defects. A burned-out headlight makes a “one-eyed” car. Which light is burned out? Is the car over the center line? A reflective plate between headlights gives the answer. We agree with the professionals. Reflective license plates are a good thing. We think all states should have them, not just the 17 (and the District of Columbia) which do now. —U. S. Press Association. Will the Real Sen. Neuberger Stand Up! Along with others we have waited for an explanation from Sen. Maurine Neuberger about her vote to stifle further explora tion of the Bobby Baker scandal even if it trod on a few Sena torial toes. Evidently this ex planation is not to be forthcom ing. It seems rather inconsistent that a Senator who has publicly made such a show of concern about immorality in government, mislabeling packages and the color of margarine should be so indifferent to the really big prob lem of peddling influence and perhaps exposing outright graft and corruption. In a way, Sen. Wayne Morse has shown himself to be the more intelligent of our two Senators— he didn’t even show up to vote on the resolution at all. —Corvallis Gazette-Times. To Adopt a Child Or Not to Adopt Sometimes a couple will raise a relative or stepchild but won’t bother to adopt the child for mally and legally. Such arrangements can be very harmful to the child, legally speaking. Adoption as we know it was not part of the old common law we inherited from England. It has been called “a creature of statute” which means our laws covering adoption were passed by the legislature. A child legally adopted by a person or couple usually as sumes the parents' name and by law becomes the parents' heir just as if he or she were a natural child of those parents. To adopt a child legally, one must file a petition with the cir cuit court in the county where the petitioner resides. Also, there must be a written consent of the child’s own parents, guardian or responsible government official. If the child is 14 or older, the child must also consent to being adopted. The judge must then be satis fied of the genuineness of the consent, the moral character of the prospective parents, their ability to support the child and that the adoption is in the best interests of the child. The adoption laws are strictly enforced. The courts will not recognize any informal arrange ment. Many children who were brought up by loving, well-mean ing people, who even have told the children that they were adopted, have been deprived of an inheritance that their foster parents undoubtedly wanted them to have, simply because the foster parents had not complied with the letter of the law by having a formal adoption. An adoption is not a “legal for mality.” It is a legal protection to the child and, perhaps to a lesser extent, to the adoptive parents. (Oregon lawyers offer this column as a public service. No person should apply or inter pret any law without the aid of an attorney, who is complete ly advised of the facts involved. Even a slight variance in facts may change the application of the law.)

Larsson On LDS Mission Church Convention Closes at Pocatello The four-day district convention of Jehovah’s Witnesses came to a conclusion last week at Poca tello high school auditorium as 2,179 persons listened to the Bible warning in the highlight dis course, “ ’Peace Among Men of Good Will’ or Armageddon — Which?” delivered by F. W. Franz, vice president of the Watch Tower Bible and Tract society. “ ’Upon earth, peace among men of good will’ — that has been a famous quotation for the past 19 hundred years,” said Mr. Franz. “But what has been its effect upon the world of mankind? As far as international affairs are concerned, the years of world peace have been few since angels first said those soothing words. From 1481 BCE to the end of World War II there have been only 268 years of world peace.” Charles Dodge, local presiding minister, reported that all re ceived counsel and helpful minis terial assistance.
