In the Day's News (Continued From Page One) Jhought occurs: "Uncle Joe wouldn't be Just try. Jng to GET RID OF THE ATOM BOMB FIRST, would he? ONE trouble with this propaganda-ridden world Is that we can't take things for granted. There Is the case of the U. S. Army sergeant (stationed at the American embassy In Moscow) Who seems to have gono Russian In a big way. He Is alleged to have written a letter to the mayor Of Moscow In which he says: "Living in the United States, 3 did not think there existed a yystem of government such as ixlsts here in the Soviet Union, In which the common man is looked after and which is directed ioward constant Improvement of Jhe mode of life and the culture f the people." Z He wrote the letter, ho explains, 'as a protest against the antl 'Soviet policies of the capitalists who at present rule America." !The Moscow radio naturally took It up in a big way and blasted It 'gleefully all over the place, i'. jfUR State Department .did a V Investigating. As a result of its inquiries, It announces In .Washington that the sergeant had .been "Beduced and exploited by an experienced Soviet woman agent." I It identifies the agent as Mrs. lallna Dunaeva Blconlsh, and iidds that she is the wife- of an other American sergeant and that ier wifely conduct has been such That her husband Is instituting reparation proceedings. " A couple of former Moscow buddies of the sergeant 'who vrote the letter report in Wash ington that the boy (he Is 21) has been made a victim of a standard ;Soviet practice of "using fascin ating women to entice and lead astray impressionable Americans stationed at our embassy In Mos ;cow." THIS business of statecraft, you see, is quite a business. It stops nt nothing in the pinches. This is nn important point to 'remember about U: When too much power is held In too few hands too long, there 'js practically nothing that those nvho hold the power won't do to .KEEP IT. The great trouble with Russia is that the power of life jlind death over 1K0 million Rus sians Is held In the hands of a -FEW MEN in Moscow. ; That is basically why it is so -hard for us to get along with 1 Russia. If it were merely a case ,'of getting along with the Rus sian PEOPLE, it would be simple "and easy. R. H. S.

STANTON During the past week we have endeavored through this column to present brief discussions of principal candidates seeking nominations at Friday's primary election. Space has not permitted listing of each and every candidate, nor more than the highlights pertaining to those mentioned. It would not have been difficult to utilize a full column for fuller discussion of each candidate. Our purpose, as previously explained, was not to influence any voter in the way he should vote, but to promote study of the candidates through presentation of information from which voters might better prepare themselves to mark their ballots. We hope we have influenced some voters to vote. We care not how they vote, except that they exercise their right of franchise honestly and intelligently. We have our own favorites in the election. Perhaps in some cases we did not disguise our personal feelings, letting our enthusiasm give one candidate a better "break" than another. But it was not our purpose to be entirely imper sonal, although, on the other hand, we endeavored to give sufficient information concerning every candidate that the voter might be able to draw his own conclusions as to preference. We ask no one to share our enthusiasm for any candidate. W,e do ask, however, that every voter go to the polls fully informed regarding tho candidates and the issues they rep resent. The affairs of government should weigh heavily upon every adult mind. These are stirring and critical times. Policies established this year may materially affect our future, both nationally and locally. The result of our presi dential election will affect the whole world, for our inter national relations will depend, in part, upon the executive chosen. Determination of the cooperative contract policy of sus tained yield forest management is involved in election of congressmen, state officers who will serve on the board of control, and down to the election of commissioners to serve on the county court. The cut-and-get-out practice of the forest industry, or a regulated timber cut on perpetual basis, is at issue, involving the economy of our timber-supported communities for many years to come. The gubernatorial race also involves such issues as liberalization of. liquor and gambling laws, management of state-owned lands, taxation procedure and handling of surplus income tax funds. Voters who normally consider primary elections a waste of time should ponder the fact that vital policies are depend ent upon this year's election and that the nominating elec tion is just as important as the general election. The relatively small number of voters turning out for somo of our elections in recent years is tragic evidence that our citizens are not fully awake to their privileges and re ftpoiiHibilitios. The constitutional structure of this iuition places the power or government in the hands of tho people. It is only when ALL tho people participate in government through their voto that wo can have tho BEST government, Political pressure groups are growing more and more , powerful. Efforts are made to organize voters interested in j one particular phase or policy to elect candidates pledged I to a particular cause. In light elections pressure organiza tions are offered opportunity to name their representatives. Usually a candidate pledged to one side of a controversial subject is not the person most suitable to exercise fully the responsibilities of tho office he seeks. But we have swn many minority candidates elected in recent years, simply because we failed to obtain a majority vote. Those are busy times, particularly here in Douglas County where continued rapid growth, with its many handicaps, imposes so much work upon so many people. But, despite the demands of business or trade, no qualified elector should neglect his duty of citizenship. We care not how you vote but VOTE ! Night laureate services Sunday evening. Other ministers in the city will also take part, and special num bers are being arranged, announc ed Stanley Gllek, senior class ad visor. The full program will be announced later. Victor P. Morris, dean of the University of Oregon school of Business administration, will be the commencement speaker Wed nesday. , Backlund Will Again Race Against Jepson Art Backlund, Roseburg High senior, who placed second in the mile and half-mile events in the state truck meet at Corvallis last Saturday, has been invited to par ticipate In the invitational track meet at Medford Friday night. Backlund and Track Coach Jack Nowby will make the trip. The Roseburg distance ace will par ticipate in the half-mile event only, and again will compote against the record breaking Jep son of Benson High, 1 'oil laud, who paced the state field meet with a 2:00.3.

A K. Feller Hurls Cleveland To Leesgue Lead Ev JACK HAND (Associated Press Sports Writer) Bobby Feller and his Cleveland Tribe have cooled off Connie Macks Athletics and wrested the actual American League lead from Philaciclnhia. By a mathematical freak, the Indians slipped into first place Tuesday night when they really iraiiea ine a s oy a nan game. No longer is there any freak about it. Feller took care of that The fireballing righthander, who was the only American Leaguer to win 20 games last season, hung up his fifth victory last night by trimming Philadel phia, b-i, witn three hits. Feller's brilliant pitching ner- mitted the Tribe to sweep the series from the A's, who came into town on a red hot spree after winning a doubleheader in the Yankee Stadium. Last night's crowd saw Feller retire the side in order in seven of the nine Innings while the home club routed Dietrich In five-run fifth. Newhouser Finally Wins Ncwhouser got back on the win path after being knocked out five straight times when he hurled De troit to a 4-1 decision over Boston. Wertz broke ud a 11 came wnen ne nomered on Kinder with two on in the last of the n nth. Mullin s homer in the fourth ac counted for the other run. The New York Yankees finally got a route-going job from Lonat. ex-White Sox'er, who allowed 12 hits In taking an 8-4 verdict over -Sanford and the St. Louis Browns. Pitcher Wynn helped Washing ton out oi trouoie with tils bat. Coming In as a pinchhiltcr he singled home two runs that started the Senators to a 41 nod over Chicago.

While the Dodgers were losing their fourth in a row at home, the Phils were coming from be hind to shade Chicago, 2-1.
