Stanton This much can be taken for granted: On every U.S. base and every u.s. warsnip wunin reacn oi Alos their bomb bays are full of bombs. Grim? Well, we mustn't be caught nap ping. That would be fatal. Let's turn to something pleasant- n Or infra nast and pleas for divine favor in the future, Certainly as we come to this Thanksgivini? Day we have much to be thankful for. Our Pilfrrim Fathers found reason for our first thankspivimr in the fact that they had achieved by herculean labor a sufficient harvest to stave off starva tion through the winter abend. Today we squawk to Hitch Heaven about taxes, cost-of-living, rents and poor televi sion programs in a time of unparalleled prosperity, short work week, high wages, and more individual luxury than any people at any time in history have ever known. We surely have more reason to be thankful than any people who ever lived, and more reason to be thankful at this particular time than any other people in the world's history. Most of us, I believe, are Irucly grateful for our bless ings, even though we don t stop to express our appreciation to Almighty God "from whom all blessings flow." But, though we may not give thanks for the blessings of the past, it would behoove each and every one of us to get down on our knees and pray most earnestly for divine favor for the future. Peace Opportunity Beckons Happenings throughout the world today could well turn us either toward war or peace. Some of our people are screaming that we are muddling our foreign policy. Oddly, some of the loudest screams seem to be coming from the extreme left wing,-from known "pinks" and fellow travel ers. By their repeated screams they appear to be alarm ing many serious-minded citizens and causing distrust in our policies. Perhaps we have missed the boat. We may fail in our endeavors for peace. But current conditions seem to be in our favor. They are enough in our favor to deserve the prayers of every patriotic American that our leaders shall have divine guidance in the troublesome hours and days ahead. That, I believe, should be our theme for this Thanksgiving1 Day. We have had the courage to tell our good friends Great Britain and France that when we say we oppose aggres sion we mean what we say. And, while Russia grimaces and threatens intervention and retaliation, we, without much fanfare, indicating our belief that "action speaks louder than words," have strengthened our Mediterranean fleet, a move Russia can well understand. At the same time we apparently have been trying to put some stiffening in the backbone" of the United Nations. The United Nations has been a more or less spineless organization 'in the past - an "international debating so ciety" but we now are insisting that the United Nations has reached its maturity, is now adult, and that it assume the responsibility for which it was created. NEW YORK Ufl Right at the peak of the rock madness, an older and less barbarous form of music is en joying a new renown. They used to call it jazz and they still do. If anybody thought the rowdy strains of rock 'n' roll would doom jazz to the musical graveyard, thev low-rated cow ttie pilots are alerted and l,1B vimiiiy in me uixiemnu bciiuui oi nurn looters anu ineir their enxines are warmed up. And! robust disciples. By the sacred trumpet of the legendary Bix Beiderbecke ("He just put that horn to his lips, man, and blew himself straight up to Heaven"), jazz is entering a new golden age. Just 30 years ago jazz was re garded as the juvenile delinquent of the musical world. Today it is the darling of the intellectuals; it is accepted as an art form; it is taught in colleges. A jazz band led by Dizzy Gil lespie even went abroad, with the blessing of the U. S. State De partment, to toot for the Ameri can way of life. Jazz is doing well, too, in the realm of the big dollar.

Kenner, driving a loader at The Dalles Lumber It Manufacturing plant, was taking logs off a "cold deck" when the boom on the load er came in contact with an over head power line. Apparently unaware of the elec trical surge, Kenner stepped from the cab and fell unconscious as soon as his feet touched the ground. Hospital attendants said he suf fered shock and burns on the hands and feet. PLANS FOR ACTION WASHINGTON i - Atty. Gen. Brownell this week called confer ence to plan a course of action for federal authorities in the South under the Supreme Court decree striking down racial segregation on public buses. Summoned to a meeting here Dec. 10, were the 34 U. S. dis-, trict attorneys stationed in 14 I Southern states. j WALLPAPER IN STOCK Colorcraft Paint and Wallpaper 616 S t. Coat Ph.

Room 202 Diol 3-4311 PATRONIZE NEW-9EVIEW ADVERTISERS Why is that good? The answer is simple. build new houses to live in and new factories to provide employ ment for our people. There is a lot of talk about "light money, and the politicians would have us believe that all that is necessary to relieve the tightness ot money and credit is to wave a wand. It isn't quite that simple. Money is a commodity. When it is scarce when the demand for it exceeds the supply it is high priced. And hard to get. When it is abundant, it is lower-priced and easier to get. Money is abundant when Deonle save more than they spend. It is tight and hard to get when people generally spend more than they save. That's the long and the short of it. In the stale of Oregon as a whole (he people increased their purchas es of savings bonds in October of tins year over October of last year. The increase, as already staler! here, amounts to seven per cent. In the five DrineiDal eounliea .if aouinern Oregon Douglas, Jo- than 1,000 new platters each year. A leading historian of the field, Leonard Feather, has just com piled "The Encyclopedia Year book 'of Jazz," which is a fine prose pudding full of rich plums for fans who like to argue the merits of Count Basie versus Duke Ellington. Personally, like many other tone-deaf musical illiterates, I thought that rock V roll music was a form of jazz a sort of re tarded stepchild. While admitting there is a fringe area where it is hard to draw a line between the two. Feather prefers to point out that the best jazz is closer to classical music. "Rock V roll bears the same relationship to jazz that wrestling bears to boxing," he said. "Rock 'n' roll not only is very rarely jazz; it is very rarely mu sic. Its present popularity is a passing fad about which the par ents of America need hardly con cern themselves." Rock V roll seems to have a firm grip on millions of high sephine, Jackson Klamath andscno! students. Who, then, arc Chance To Make Friends There is no question but that the United Stales has made friends by sticking with principle. There is evidence that France and Great Britain have been surprised. They apparently believed that once they committed themselves to the policy they adopted in the Middle East we would join, even though we might come in reluctantly. Ry our refusal to join our former allies and our good friends in this latest move, we have gained the confi dence of many of the smaller and previously suspicious na tions. Knowing that we would back them up with our mil itary might, if necessary, they have provided the manpow er needed for the U.N. police force. India, which has been very friendly with Russia, now is speaking out against Russian aggression in Hungary and Poland. We want India for our friend. Perhaps the cur rent situation will cement that friendship. Trust, under standing and cooperation between India and the United States could be of the utmost influence in preservation of world peace. "God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to per form," and the "prayer of a righteous man availelh much." Those two quotations, even out of context, could well be the inspiration, I believe, for our prayers of thanksgiving and pleas for divine guidance as we celebrate our national holiday. Lake savings bond sales in Oc tober fell behind sales in October last year by nine per cent. But in Klamath and Lake counties they increased better than 14 percent. The increase in Lake county amounted to 14.1 per cent and in Klamath county to 14.2 per cent. Consolidate Asks ICC To Issue 250,000 Shares WASHINGTON I - Consoli dated Freightways of Portland, Ore., Tuesday asked the Inter state Commerce Commission (ICC) for permission to issue 250,- ouu snares of us 52.50 par value common stock in connection with its proposed acquisition of eastern motor carriers designed to give Consolidated a trans-continental trucking system. Consolidated estimated the ac quisition of six companies operat ing east of the Mississippi would cost close to 18 million dollars. The company plans to make a public offering of the 250.000 shares, using the proceeds for a cash purchase of Motor Cargo Inc. of Akron, Ohio, and Liberty Motor Freight Lines of Secaucus, N. J. America's jazz fans? Surprising ly, only a few are oldtimers nos talgic for the roaring 20's and the threadbare 30's. A poll by Feather showed that about half were of college age, only 6.4 per cent were over 30. Two-thirds of the fans reported they spent from 5 to 20 hours a week listening to jazz music, al though one lady reported, "I try for at least 112 hours a week." and another young lady said she devoted 84 hours a week to jazz and 30 to classical music. Nearly half said they spent from $2 to $5 a week on jazz records, but one fan said his weekly out lay was S25 to $30. The most cheering note in the whole poll to purist Feather, who rates F.lvis Presley's contribution to modern musio as roughly equal to a medicine man's contribution to the advancement of modern I surgery, was this: 78.6 per cent of the jazz fans expressed a vio lent dislike for rock V roll. "Beyond any doubt," -he said, "(he rhythm-and-blues (or rock 'n' roll) fan and the jazz fan are two different species, scarcely ever overlapping." As one slaid collegiate jazz scholar put it: Pravda's Attack Indicates Possible Return To Oldline Stalinists, Backed By Army WASHINGTON (NEA) The regular session of the United Na tions General Assembly in New York has a heavy 66-item agenda lo consider. But many of the rou tine or long-range problems are apt to be sidetracked by the more immediate and explosive crises in Ihe Middle Fast and the Russian satellites of Eastern Europe. This session was delayed from its normal September opening so as not lo get the U.N. mixed up in Ihe U. S. elections. It develop ed that this was an unnecessary delay. For when the Egyptian and Hun garian fighting developed, the Gen eral Assembly pitched right in with a spociai session. Instead of being influenced by the U. S. elec tions, it was the other way around, fnited Nations night sessions al most drove the election off the front pages and monopolized the a i r waves. IT WAS A healthful development for the U.N.

The Greeks have put the ques tion of self-determination for the people of Cyprus on the agenda. Since Cyprus is the base from which the British and French launched their attack, this ques tion may develop some hot de bate. ISRAEL'S SEIZURE of the Gaza strip focuses new interest on the question of handling Arab refu gees. A new Commissioner of Ref ugees must be named to succeed the late Dr. G. J. Van Heuven Goedhart of the Netherlands. Algerian Nationalists may again try to have the General Assem bly consider their case. Hereto fore France has walked out on such proposals, contending it was an internal government affair, of concern only to France. India has proposed considera tion of an international develop ment plan for the joint use of Antarctica.
