Receiving a warm but politely restrained welcome, Nixon said that some treaties "can be just a scrap of paper with no meaning." The United States and treaty we believe in those words." The President seemed anxious to reassure Thailand, close by Vietnam and facing a Communist insurgency in its northeastern provinces, that his recent declarations that the United States would scale down military involvement in Asia after the Vietnam war did not mean that Thailand was being abandoned.

One man threw what appeared to be an empty bottle at Nixon and his King Bhumibol. Police arrested him and said he was mentally disturbed, with a previous record. Another man was arrested nearby with a pistol in his belt. But he turned out to be an army officer on leave from southern Thailand. He was released.

The bottle thrower was about 50 yards from Nixon and the king as they arrived at the Phanfa Pavilion in downtown Bangkok for the President to receive the keys to the city.

(UPI Tele-photo) Of lunar orbit phase Ac-8- By DAN JONES Democrat-Herald Writer MILL CITY Glenn Jackson, chairman of the Oregon Highway Commission, called for a reallocation of federal outdoor recreation funds on the basis of need rather than of population. Jackson was the concluding speaker of a two-day outdoor seminar on Oregon's environment held at Fisherman's Band Campground near Mill City. The seminar drew about 100 people for Jackson's remarks and more than 150 people attended one or more of the sessions, according to Jack Remington, chairman.

Remington is a member of the Portland chapter and Oregon division of the Izaak Walton League. State Treasurer Robert Straub organized the seminar, first of its kind in the state. Control of pesticides, herbicides and nuclear plant location were among topics discussed earlier in the session. Jackson's campfire topic Saturday was "Tourism in a quality environment." In a state held 52 per cent by the federal government, which served nine million tourists last year in relation to only two million citizens of the state, the federal role in providing recreation sites should be greater, Jackson said. Jackson said counties along the coast should also reevaluate their responsibility to the tourist.

The State Highway Commission operates 80 state parks along the coast and now has been directed to acquire and manage the entire dry-sands beach as a state park. Some 190 million has been spent on Highway 101 and access to it from the interior valley. Jackson said 54 per cent of the state park load is along the coast and "the biggest coastal crop is the toarist crop."

I mean, you can meet lots of new people from lots bf different places around here. I guess I enjoy riding horses and water skiing is pretty much fun too. That's really not much but a-round here there's not much eke for kids to do.

Maybe I would just like to sit in the park and eat peanuts or something. Valerie Brosig, 15, 2 Sierra Place, Ukiah, Calif. "Like I'm from California and really, we don't have much in the way of any real park. I mean just someplace you can just go. I think this park (Bryant Park) is really cool.

You can just go and sit there, you know. I also like horseback riding during the summer. Really, about all I really like to do is go down to the park while I'm visiting here and just sit in the shade. It sure beats a lot of other things." Terry Bennett. 18, Rt.

It would be worth it because by the time you finished, you would have met a lot of new people, talked to them, learned how they think, and hopefully you would have made some new friends in the process.

Mary Kern, 16, 218 Peach Tree Lane, Albany. "I just come down to the park or something, but that isn't really very unusual. If I wanted to do something very unusual I'd probably want to hitchhike to the Oregon coast. I don't really know why I'd want to do that. Just because No.
