StVT" COUNTING CHICKENS : 7 Charles V. Stanton '.Oregon editors, I note in exchanges coming to the edi torial' desk; are etiRaging in much conjecture concerning the forthcoming political battle for the senatorial seat now oMupied by Senator Wayne Morse. Every discussion I have read to date assumes the contest -will be between Morse and a Republican candi date. It is generally believed that Governor Paul Patter son will be the Republican nominee. !J. I am not one who subscribes to the somewhat popular mylh of Morse's invincibility. In fact, I'm wondering if perhaps some of the editor's aren't counting chickens be fore they're hatched. 3' Morse hasn't won the Democratic nomination yet, I'M of the opinion he could be beaten in the primaries, pro vllljiel a popular conservative Democrat should offer a con tort, i't'-- !r I agree with the editor of the Grants Past Courier in his-etalement that: W "art equally carta in that a comidarabla legment of tha Damooratit party , will not vota for Mont, aoma bacauia ha It ioo; radical, tome because tha man hat dona to many political lip-flopi that they do not trust hit pratent attarted Democratic party loyalty, soma bacauia they believe he It pure demagogue !: md torn becaute they believe he it to egotistical that hit udgment on important public ittues It warped. Conservative Might Win Many Democrats are unhappy over the fact that the Sooialistic wing has gained control or the party, .t; Socialists have been vigorous in their condemnation of what they called Oregon s "one-party system. Hut one reason we have had so many Republican victories, in a state where registration is so evenly balanced, is that many conservative Democrats will not support socialistic nominees. ' .' The Democratic party has a good many conservative members with excellent records in public service. If one of these men, in whom conservative members have confi dence were to be a candidate at the primary election, it is hV opinion he would have a very good chance to beat Chief Bigmouth for the nomination. It also is entirely possible that such a nominee would haye better opportunity in the general election than would Morse. ' The editor of the Pendleton East-Oregonian says : ', ,r 'It' It bur opinion that tha key to the outcome of thit contest, that will attract nationwide attention In 1956, It not the Re ,1 pubjlcan party't candidate but how many Republican! ttill think 'Wayne Mono it an able tenator. That's granting that 11 par ; cant, of ,,the Democrati will tupport Morse. We believe they will but their votes are not of sufficient number to elect him. Hi , will have to have some Republican support to win. ; As has been shown in recent elections, neither party Votes, a straight ticket. ' I doubt that Morse will get any where n oar 99 percent of the Democratic vote. The Republican- party, however, also has its "liberals," some of wham, of course, would support Morse, but probably a greater number would, turn to a conservative Democrat, if On.e' vere to be nominated. Positive Campaign Urged i Editors quite generally are in agreement that the Re publicans, if they expect to beat Morse, must wage a posi tive" campaign. Republicans in the past have concentrat ed too heavily on beating the opponent rather than electing heir own candidate. Says the editor of the Eugene Regi.iter-Giifird : ; That's one of the things that went wrong last fall. Repub licans were trying to "beat Neuberger" more than they were ; trying to "elect Cordon." Most of their campaign wat pitched at running down tha Democratic candidate, while they said little about the man they had put up against Sen Neuberger. ' ' .We heard Doug McKay talking about thit very thing one timer Urging Republican! to "accentuate the positive," Mr. Mc ' Kay recalled, "When I wai selling Chavrolett, do you think I ran down Fords? Heck, I didn't even know they made 'em. I ' told my own product." .' Republicans will be more assured of tuccett in 1954, we sus pect,' if they take tha advice of Republican Douglas McKay. The advice to "accentuate the positive, "1 believe, is good advice in any campaign, regardless of who the can didates inay be. . 1 But let's not be too sure that Morse will be the Demo cratic nominee. Sure, it looks that way now. But I'm of the opinion the Democrats may decide they want some one jvhQ doesn't turn his coat and change his hats quite so often.' -JJaf (J3oiile V NJ2VV YORK (.J1) Most new houses being built today have a recreation room. What they really need is a medi cine room. Every home today is a small drugstore. It overflows with scores of lube and hollies and jnrs o( medira mend lotions and cosmetics which the average human beins now feels he needs to keop himself physi tally (it and socially acceptable. The American people never have been more health y and never hav taken more medicine. Some people now get their main exer eise simply by the muscular effort expended in taking the medicines to keep themselves feelins well or applying the toiletry aids which they hope will make them look less creepy. A man's social status today is jmlSM as much by the diseases ko boasts as bv his bank account You never can be sure how far ke really has risen in the world Htil you net a peek into his bath room medicine cahinet. ' The trouble is that no medicine cabinet is large rnnuth any long er to hold the jumtiled drug hoards of a civaliied family. I can rememher as a boy when the vld-fashloned small bathroom medicine cabinet in your home watloulle ample. It held a jar of vaseline, a tube of toothpaste, a box of TiakinB soda, a ramr. I eake-ot having soap, a bottle of gauze and some adhesive tape. Oh, yes, and some boric acid so lution and a small tin of aspirin tabids. This small stock served the health needs of a family of seven. It enabled one to bandage a cut or ease a headarne. But in those simple days, wneu you got your vitamins from gro ceries Instead of from a druggist, health was taken as a matter ot fact. It hadn t become either a hobby or an industry. You didn't worry yourself sick over the ques tion of whether you were healthy. Today the ordinary home con tains enough medical and toiletry supplies to furnish the clinic of a generation ago. They overflow the bathroom in to every room in the house and down into the basemen!. A modern man never throws away unused medicine after an illness! He sim ply puis it away somewhere, like squirrel hiding an acorn, againt I future emergency. The other day I opened mv crowd ed medicine cahinet.

In The Day's News (Continued from Page One) PEOPLE ARE PEOPLE, no mat ter how exalted or how humble their station, this could become a much better world to live in. Old Haakon (the seventh) Is quite a character. He became king of Norway ill 1905 just a half a century ago. It happened like this: The Norwegians were hot stuff in the time of the Vikings. But they fell upon evil days. In the 1300'a Miev were decimated bv a series of terrible epidemics and became so weakened that eventual ly they joined up with Denmark. That union lasted some three centuries, but in time the atub born spirit of independence be queathed to them by their Viking ancestors asserted itself and they pulled loose from the Danes (under considerable pressure from Brit ain) ana teamed up with fcweden. The partnership with the Swedes never did work too well, and by the 1890's the Norwegians and the Swedes were drifting toward war. In 1905 the Norwegian parliament took the bull by the horns and elected prince Carl of Denmark king of Norway. Prince Carl had a mind of his own and declined to be king of Norway unless there was clear evidence that the people of Nor way WANTED him as king. They held an election and the people voted for him almost unanimously. He accepted the Norwegian crown under the name of Haakon VII. It all turned out very well indeed, and for SO years Haakon has retained the confidence and the respect and the faith of his people. He kept them neutral in World War I, and tried to keep mem neutral in world war 11. nut Hitler invaded his country and the fat was in the fire. Hut he came back strong in the end, and since the end of World War II Norway has been doing very well.

(The British druggist had couon, a can ot talcum, i roll of I assured m it was ' good for falling hair" and it was: everv time I APPLIBD IT THE FALL ING HAIR FELL OUT FASTER. "Where's the liniment?" I called to my wife, rubbing the bump on my forehead. Well, after a long search Fran ces finally found it in the medi cine cabinet in HER bathroom, hidden behind a jar of face cream and the eye lotion guaranteed to relieve TV optical fatigue. That illustrates anolhrr peril of having medicine diffused all over the place. A fellow, stricken by a real emergency, could crawl from room to roum. pawing through bot tle after bottle, and die wothout finding the one he needed par ticularly it his wile weren t there to help him. Also, modern medicines are changing, and the so-called modern home isn't suited to slore them. For example, suppose you have a bottle that says, "keep in a cool dark place." Where do you put it? in the refrigerator, naturally. But what happens when you open the refrigerator to see if the medicine is keeping cool? The light flashes on. and you can almost see the bottle shudder as it cowers in search of a dark place. The old fashioned lightless icebox was more practical. No. in bringing the drugstore in to the home we have onlv gone half way. What we need now is a full-site room specially built to give everything from throat lojenges to high-fidelity vitamins and true blue skin hormone creahis exactly the right living conditions they should have. The final step, of course, will lie to staff the room with a pro fessional pharmacist and an in terne, and provide living quar ters in your house for them too. Then a man can reasonably ex pect to stay healthy at home, inde pendent of either hospital or drug store. I don- WASHINGTON (NEA) Amer ican flag international airlines arc now blaming the U. S. State Department for what they call the "giveaway" of New York - to Latin - America air routes to the revived German government Luft hansa airline. Following the demands made by me benate commerce buocom miltee under Chairman Warren Magnuson (D-Wash) the U. S. airline representatives will get an other chance to protest against the Civil Aeronautics Board de cision in this case. CAB made a unanimous 4-0 rec ommendation to give Lufthansa Caribbean and South American routes as well as a polar route o San Francisco or Los Angeles. Board Member Josh Lee was in Japan. Member Joseoh P. Adams protested that the State Depart ment used undue interference on the board, but in the end he voted with the majority. Chairman Ross Ridley thinks the board won't change. NOBODY AT THE WHITE HOUSE and no Cabinet officer can be blamed for any part of this one, as they were In the Pacific route case earlier this year. This was entirely a State-CAB deal. But the inside slory on how the negotia tions were conducted sheds slight ly different light on what has be come a celebrated case. CAB Member Chan Gurney. former chairman, was the chief negotiator of the German agree ment. He reported to the full board daily, so they were kept con stantly advised of progress. Edward Bolster, deputy chief of Transportation and Communica tions, was chicr negotiator lor the State Department. ATA the Air Transport Asso ciation of V. S. commercial air lines was represented by Paul Senate Committee Gives Approval To Military Bill WASHINGTON i.n The Senate Armed Services Committee unam niously approved a $2,357,317,300 military construction bill Thursday authorizing hundreds of items for defense construction around the world. Numerous changes were made by the Senate group in a similar bill previously passes by the House. Sen. Stennis (D-Missl said these included addition of 27 million dol lars to expand airfields and shops that will be needed for the speed up in production of the new heavy long-range B52 bombers. Another 14 million was added to the bulky bill, Stennis said, to expand secret facilities of the Air craft Warning Service of the Air uetense Command. These include operations intend ed to detect and defend against ; possible enemy air attacks, j Decreases made by the Senate ! committee in projects previously voted by the House still left the I Senate bill more than It millions! I below the House total and some ;33 millions below budget requests. Stennis said the bill will be i called up in the Senate Fndav. i Farmer's Family Escapes Injury From Jet- Engine KALAMAZOO. Mich. vTI A farmer's family escaped injury Thursday when a flaming engine, which reportedly fell off a B47 jet bomber, landed less than 100 feet from their home. The Grand Rapkls Air Defense filter center confirmed reports that the engine caught fire while the plane was on a routine fight. It said the crippled craft made its way bark to its Lockhurne Air Force Base in Ohio, but declined further information. William Stillings said his family was awakened as the engine, mak ing a loud whistling noise, fell in flames. , Reiber. He sat In as an observer at all sessions and reported the carriers' position on all issues. Before the board took up the German application for air route certification, however, the Amer ican airline representatives were called in. These were not star chamber sessions, therefore, as has been charged. STATE DEPARTMENT repre sentatives made clear from the be ginning that they would not inter fere with CAB in its decisions on which routes the Germans should get. The Germans had initially ap plied for practically every route it was within the power of CAB to grant. Gurney refused to give all these rights. On June 8 it look ed as though tha negotiations would break down. The Stale Department team came over the next morning and made a new pica of more liberal treatment for the Germans. After the State boys left, CAB went into another huddle and came up with a new position. This was acceptable to the Cermans. But Reiber of ATA learning of it then for the first lime,, filed violent objections. IN DEFENSE OF THE CAB findings, Gurney says Lufthansa will be authorized to make only through flights, Germany to Bos ton, New York or Philadelphia and on to Latin-American points, or return. This is the long way round. Present indications are that the traffic will justify one flight a week, says Gurney, or maybe two later on. In return for this, the U. S. Trans World Airline will he given German authority to fly Frankfurt to Zurich and beyond. Pan-American World Airwavs will get everything it now has on temporary certification. What really burned the Ameri can carriers was that they were not given a chance to protest and urge reconsideration after CAB had reached its decision. But there's small chance to change it. ii ina itaana iiniii'-WjiinxeaiaLaa More Support For Future Parades Said Answer ROSEBURG In answer to Evelyn Williams' assertion ol "risque" rodeo parade entries, I would like to suggest that she, and anyone else dissatisfied with the type of entries in the parade, get together and enter some exhibits and floats themselves of the type they feel are more broadening for the minds of our youth. By so do ing, they would help in years to come for the parade to be an even greater success. But by merely finding fault with the efforts of others, and writing degrading articles, she is not add ing to anything but her own ego. I saw the parade and felt that most of the people there received it all with the same good nature It was meant to arouse. All the parade needs. I believe, is more Interest on the part of townspeople, merchants, clubs etc., so that we will continue to have even larger and more beauti ful parades in the future. B. B. Brejcha Roseburg, Ore. Boxcar Shortage Eased, Reports Heltzel Of PUC SALEM (fl The shortage of box cars for Oregon's lumber shippers has been greatly relieved, Public Utilities Comm. Charles H. Heltzel said Thursday. Heltzel said that last week the Southern Pacific Railroad was able to provide 79 per cent of the cars requested by the lumber industry, compared with only 57 per cent in the week ended June 6. Heltzel gave the credit for the improvement to the 14-member emergency transportation commit tee appointed by Gov. Paul Patterson. The committee held its first meeting in Eugene June 10, and Heltzel said the improvement began immediately. During the week ended June 13, the railroad was able to supply 71 per cent of the cars ordered, and the figure jumped to 82 per cent during the week ended June 20. Last week, shippers ordered 4,484 cars, and the railroad supplied 3,541. The committee, Heltzel said, Is accomplishing its objective princi pally by maintaining pressure on the railroad to bring empty cars into Oregon. The next meeting of the com mittee will be in Salem July 5. Heltzel announced he would supply weekly car shortage figures. They will be broken down accord ing to the various divisions of the Southern Pacific, TAKE CHURCHILL ALONG LONDON Wi The Evening Standard suggested Thursday that Prime Minister Eden take Winston Churchill along with him to the Big Four summit talks next month in Geneva as an adviser.
