MORE NEW

Simultaneous installations
The. News-Review and Klamath Falls Herald and News,
affiliated in the Southern Oregon Publishing; Co., make these
two newspapers the FIRST in Oregon to set up Teletype-
setting equipment.
The Teletypesetter, a comparatively new invention, per
mits automatic operation of
about 1500 Teletypesetters are in use today. They are used
to speed type production almost doubling production over
the manually operated line-caster and also to permit setting
identical type at several stations simultaneously from one
central station, when connected by telegraph wire.
Time and Life Magazines, for instance, are edited in New
York but, through use of Teletypesetters at Philadelphia,
Chicago and Los Angeles, set identical type simultaneously
at each of the three publication points.
The Teletypesetter consists of three major pieces of equip
ment, a perforator, transmitter and keyboard.
The perforator has a standard typewriter keyboard to
gether with auxiliary keys. It operates in much the same
manner as an electric typewriter, but, instead of printing
characters on a piece of paper, punches holes in a record
ing tape.
As the tape comes from the perforator it is fed into the
transmitter. Combinations of holes in the tape create elec
trical impulses.
Each impulse from the transmitter is transferred into
mechanical action on the keyboard which is attached to the
line-casting machine. Each coded impulse from the trans
mitter "punches" a key on the keyboard in exactly the same
manner as would be done in manual operation and causes
the line-caster to set type in the normal manner.
The Teletypesetter opens the way for many interesting
developments in the mechanics of publishing and printing.
There has been established, for instance, the Southwest
Arkansas Teletypesetter Circuit, with headquarters at Hope,
Arkansas. An eight-hour daily wire report is edited at Hope
and is set in type simultaneously by five neighboring news
papers. Several such circuits now are operating in the East
and Mid-West.
A number of installations have been made for weekly
newspapers where the mechanical problem differs consider
ably from that of daily newspapers. Weeklies can train
girls to operate perforators and utilize only one Linotype
operator to service two or three line-casters.
The News-Review and Herald and News are installing
these machines in an effort to produce more type in a given
number of hours. It is expected that a large amount of
the material can be put through the automatic operation,
particularly material which normally slows down the manual
operation. Thus the "slow copy" can be punched out on the
perforator and fed into the transmitter which then will
operate the Linotype at top speed.. This can be done at
such times as will not take the line-caster out of production
when needed for "hot" copy. . ,
The Teletypesetter is expected to be a great timesaver in
handling legals, classified ads, and time copy, thus aiding in
meeting early deadlines.
News-Review Linotype operators have even suggested that
the editor punch out his own column material on the Tele
typesetter so they won't have to read it. But we'll be dog
goned if we will! So long as we refuse, we're sure of at least
two readers the operator and proofreader.
Russia Put On Defensive In
Struggle For Europe, Claim
Of State Secretary Acheson
WASHINGTON, June 27.-UP)
Secretary ol State Acheson says
Russia has been definitely put
on the defensive In the struggle
lor iurope,
He told a news conference that
the results of the Big Four for
elgn ministers meeting at Paris
biiow mat.
Acheson said the Soviet Union
was afraid to relax Us iron grip
on Eastern Germany because the
Russian leaders know they would
no longer be able to control the
Herman people 11 iney ma so.
The real significance of the Big
Four session at Paris, Acheson
said, is that It demonstrates the
ready strengthened position of
the Western Powers In what he
called the struggle for the soul
of kurope and the fact the posi
tion of Russia has been switched
from an offensive to a defensive
one.
Persecution Rapped
Acheson declared that Commu
nist-run Czechoslovakia is wag
jng a campaign against religious
freedom which violates "the de
cencies of civilization."
The Secretary charged that re
strictions imposed by ine Lorn
munist regime are "an attempt
to subject religious organizations
to the rule of an intolerant police
state. The campaign, ne said,
follows the pattern of those al
ready carried out in Hungary,
Bulgaria and other Eastern Euro
pean Communist states.
Ask Money For Korea
Acheson previously reempha
sized Thursday this time to the
House the "utmost importance"
of approving the North Atlantic
Pact and European arms program
at this congressional session.
Acheson also urged action by
June 30 on a bill to provide $150,
000,000 of economic aid for Korea.

The Secretary underscored what
he had told the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee that action
on the treaty and arms program
are needed to back up America's
policy In Europe.
The House has nothing to do
with ratification of the North
Atlantic defense alliance. But it
will have to approve the Arms
program.
At the moment, the Foreign
Affairs Committee is considering
the Korean bill. Without help,
Acheson said, the south Korean
fiovernment "will have an almost
nstiperable task in maintaining
freedom and Independence."
He told the Senators that the
Inability of the Western dele
gates at the conference to come
to any real agreement with Rus
sia emphasizes the need for both
the North Atlanlic Pact and the
related arms program.

to develop the individuality and

their characters would be as in

Editorial Comment
From The Oregon Press
GONE ARE THE DAYS
Sherman County Journal
A woman, bitten by a rattler
while fishing, has been given
some sort of serum recommend
ed for the occasion and is re
ported as being on the way to re
covery. That is all very good and
very scientific and very luckv.
Hut It ain't like it used to be.
When the west was new the only
known cure for rattle snake bile
was a more common serum which
came In barrels hauled up next
the bulkhead of freighter's high
wheeled wagons. The bulkhead
llself was the freighter's store
room where he kept his proven
der of grain for the unwilling
eayuses that provided his mo
tive force. He kept his chewing
tobacco, his bacon and flour
there, too. But the place nearby
was where the snake bite serum
were hauled.
Why, In those days, they used
to start a town with a barrel or
two of that stuff. A stranger'd
come along, find a likely place
where there was water and grass
ana set up a snop ot some Rind.
Maybe a blacksmith shop, maybe
an eating place but fhst off he
needed a barrel of this snake
bite serum to roll up on a plat
form all ready for a wooden
spigot and a customer. The cus
tomer would be along shortly,
heralded by a plume of dust
down the road.
It wouldn't he long (if the bar
rel was occasionally renewed!
until some one would settle
nearby and pretty soon there'd
be a town with a store and a
street and hopes for a postof
flee. Travelers would stop In
Just for the sociability and set
tlers would ride in from forty
miles because there was likely
something going on.
Most immoral? Yep. reckon so,
hut seemed like there wasn't no
excitement over to the other
place.
Did the stuff cure rattle snake
bites? Well, history is not exact
"Who, Me?"
Scout is Reverent. He is rever
ent toward God. He Is faithful
in his religious duties, and res
pects the convictions of others in
matters of custom and religion."
Our boys had one scoutmaster
who demonstrated all that Mr.
Beard said in this respect: he was
of the Mormon faith. I feel sure
at least a half dozen other de
nominations were represented In
the troop. It was the scoutmas
ter's invariable custom to Include
a Bible in his pack but on one
trip up Into the high Sierra for
a week, he failed, somehow, to
do so.
He explained to the boys and
showed his deep regret. The
boys were concerned for him.
Said the youngest scout earnest
ly:
"If it will help you out any.
Scoutmaster, I could pretend to
be reading the Bible. I know
the twenty-third Psalm and the
Ninety-first."
The troop, the scoutmaster told
us later, showed their approval.
So did he, but not for the same
reason. "You just do that!" said
he, warmly. "Your Good Turn!"
Scouting, when lived up to, is
a big step towards world brother
hood! on the subject but a lot of It was
taken for snake bites, real or
anticipated, and It must have
cured some. But it cured the
country of ennui, although the
word was never heard In those
days, and there are philosophers
of a sort who would argue that
being bit by a snake was no
worse ailment than being bored
by inaction only quicker.
How Socialism Works In England
Salem Capital Journal
An Associated Press dispatch
from Selarnthy, England, fells of
the Joy of life under the socialists
regime of the British Labor Party,
whose endless red tape on triviali
ties is reminiscent of our own
OPA control during war time.
The clerk of Sommerset parish
had for a hundred years or more
tacked election notices upon a
church door and adjacent trees.
The owner of the property turned
it over to the government as a
national trust. This followed:

lelln boards for that purpose. The
clerk got permission to up the tax
rates a penny to pay for the
boards. Then he applied. In tripli
cate, for an allotment of rationed
lumber to make the boards.
Next, he mailed the national
trust a ropy of a lease, in tripli
cate, covering erection of the
boards. Then he applied, in quln

that matter, I was unaware that
the old one had only two.
It's odd how many things we
don't, know. ,
...
r HERE'S a thought-provoking
little tale in the news.
The Oregon Poultry Council
wants a price floor of 90 per cent
of parity for the 1949 turkey crop.
In defense of Its position, it as
serts that turkey prices should be
protected at the same level as
grain prices.
Well, turkeys eat grain. If the
price of grain Is high, the cost of
raising and fattening turkeys will
be high. That follows as night fol
lows day.
You just can't get around It
...
LET'S go on with the story.
You work for wages say $1.50
an hour. You eat turkey to keep
up your vim and vigor. If a law
is passed to raise the price of tur
keys, YOU WANT A LAW THAT
WILL RAISE THE PRICE OF
YOUR WAGES.
If you get the law to raise your
wages, your boss will want a law
to raise the price of what he
makes or sells. If he gets the law
to raise the price of what he
makes or sells, it will upset the
apple cart of everybody who
BUYS what he makes or sells.
And so on ad Infinitum.
TINKERING with prices BY
LAW is a good deal like try
ing to fix the clock when you
don't know anything about clocks.
Every wheel you monkey with
UPSETS THE TIMING OF SOME
OTHER WHEEL. After a while,
you give it up and go get yourself
a new clock.
(Just as. In the course cf time,
we'll have to get ourselves a new
price structure.)

U. S. Leans To Finance Rural Phone Lines Planned
WASHINGTON, June 28. (A
A bill to bring more telephones
to the farms may get through
the House this week with the
help of a compromise move.
The rural telephone bill is next
on the worksheet after the House
gets through the housing scrap.
A fight has been building up
over the phone measure too, par
ticularly over a leature mat
would let the government lend
money for expanding country
phone service at 2 per cent inter
est less than the rate the Treas
ury pays on some of the money
it borrows. .
Now the word is getting around
from the Democratic leadership
that it might be a good idea to
raise the rate in the bill to 21
or 3 per cent. And the author,
Kep. Poage (D-Tex), has indi
cated he is willing to go along on
21 per cent.
