GILBERTS "What Young People Think"
Teeners Still Mistrust America's Old Enemies
Neuberger would iRjjg Between Two Civic-Minded
By EUGENE GILBERT
President Gilbert Youth
R tit arch Co.
World War II hat been over for
13 years but bitterness lingers on,
even in the minds of those who
were too young at the time to un
derstand it fully.
"Nazis . . , war . . . concentra
tion camps . . . persecution . . .
Hitler . . . falling bombs."
Words such as those poo into
the minds of four out of five
American young people when the
word "German" is mentioned.
Barbarism . . . war . . . sneaks
. . . fanatics . . . han kari ... untrustworthy."
Those are the sort of thins? that
one out of three American teen
agers told our poll takers they
think of first when the word ''Jap
anese" comes into the conversa
tion. On the other hand, another ex
enemy, Italy, came out very well
in our survey. Less than one in 20
think of Italy in connection with
war and Mussolini. Italians are
viewed in terms of spaghetti, mu
sic and friendliness by four out
of five.
Babes In Arms
The oldest teen - ager in our
poU was 6 years old when Ger
many fell and the Japanese sur
rendered aboard the battleship
Missouri. The youngest was
scarcely born.
Why, then, does the simple men
lion of these former foes turned
friends and allies conjure up such
a picture in the minds of our
young folk?
Perhaps it's the influence of the
movie industry, still turning out
war pictures, or perhaps it's tele
vision with its old movies pro
duced while the passions of war
time gripped the land.
Or, more probably, the kids are
influenced by the still vivid recol
lections of parents and older
friends who lived through those
years of atrocities and propazin-'
da.
Carol Yasner, 14. of Brooklyn,
was a little more than a year old
in 1945 when the fighting ended j
in Europe but to her word "Ger-
man" is matched by the word t
"Nazi." !
Diane Brooks. 13, of Norwood,
Ohio, thinks of "war " To Ar
lene Hevener. 17, of Olean, N. Y.,l
it's "concentration camps." Ger-I
m.mv means "nersprlltlon of the :
I jews." to Catherine Bruda, 16, of
Bayside, ivy.
! Alvin Stark, 14, of Jackson.
Miss., a year old when the big
bomb fell on Hiroshima, thinks of
. tlie Japanese as "fanatics they
v,irp Insinff the war hilt would
I rather die instead of surrendering
i until tne a-doiud.
I Good Words Too
"Who can think of anything else
but the barbaric way they treated
prisoners urning uw wai, uut-ia
Kenneth Weiser, 16, of Las Vegas,
N. M.
The Japanese are "a bunch of
phonies." says Gerry Taylor, 19.
of Philadelphia. "Suddenly they
love democracy and the United
States. But basically they still
have little regard for while peo
ple you know, Asia for the
Asiatics."
But, on the other hand, Amer
ican young people have a num
ber of good things to say about
the enemies of a decade and a
half ago.
Throe out of five think of the
Japanese as quiet, soft-spoken and
gentle folk. One out of three ad
mires them for their art, archi
tecture, gardens and cherry blos
soms. German intelligence impresses
one in six. One in 12 thinks of
Prussian strictness. The thoughts
of one in 20 turns to products like
beer, pretzels or cars when the
wprd German is mentioned.
Japanese means:
"Cherry blossom trees and
IS Mte . s
weeping willows." to Surella
Bruckner, 13, of Dallas.
"Harmony of life, communion
with nature." to Alida Phillips,
18. of Cincinnati.
"A very quiet people. Peace
and harmonv." to Albert Wasser
man. 19. of Hewlitt. N. Y.
j "Rice terraces and sukiyaki," to
I Joseph Mattan, a San Francisco
j 18 - year - old.
' Beautiful gardens and archi
' lecture." to Jerome Lnx, 19, of
I Chicago.
Like Fatbar
German means:
"A smart, clever person," to
Eugene Maialc, 16, of Philadel
phia. "Sausage, dachshunds. Porsche,
Mei cedes Benz, beer," to Charles
Irving, a 19 - year - old from
Corpus Chrrsti, Tex.
"Stern, strict, rough, smart sci
entists." to 17 - year - old Sandra
Dee of Boston.
"Tall, blonds, rather good look
ing, intelligent," to Roberta Sny
der 19. of Hagerstown. Md.
As former foes, the Italians are
placed in a class by themselves
this is because Italy did not stay
long enough in the war to create
a continuing adverse impression.
"When the w o r d "Italian" it
mentioned, "spaghetti, Gina Lol
lohrigida and music," pops into
the mind of Virginia Delavan, 19,
of Jacksonville, Fla.
It's "tall, dark, good - looking
men." to Priscilla Neaton, 17, of
Petersburg, N. Y.; "a passionate
people, possessed by the muses,
carefree and affable," to Fred
eric Litto. 19. of Cos Angeles.
Thoughts on Italians are more
personal for a 17 - year - old
from Portland, Ore. 1

Questions Asked !
What first pops into your mind
whan the following word is mon-j
tionad: German? Italian? Japan-
est?
Give P. O. Dept.
Rates Initiative
WASHINGTON (AP) Sen.
Richard L. Neuberger (D-Ore)
said today he will draft legislation
giving the Post Office Department
the authority to initiative postal
rate increases.
The legislative proposal. Neu
berger said in a statement from
his office here, would transfer
authority over postal rates from
Congress to the Post Office De
partment, but allow Congress 90
days to accept or reject the de
partment's recommendations.
I "My experience this past year
I in the bitter political battle over
postage rates." he said, "has con
vinced me that such an issue
! should not be determined by parti
: san or personal politics,
j "Wouldn't it be a dreadful mess
I it senators were to be pressured
j day after day over the cost of a
Bonneville kilowatt to a private
utility or an aluminum plant?
"Yet, that is what happens when
postal rates are at issue. That is
i why the rates charged by the Post
(Office Department have lagged so
j far behind costs, often to the detri
j ment and sacrifice of the families
! of the men and women employed
jby the Post Office Department."
I Neuberger said the measure
I should provide a general frame
j work to guide postal authorities.
"For example." he said, "Con
gress should determine exactly
I what proportion of total costs
ought to be carried by first-class
mail, what distinction should be
. made between the advertising
I content of a periodical and its
editorial material and similar
standards.

Highway Commission
Meets Spending Deadline
SALEM (AP) The Oregon
Highway Commission is meeting
the deadline on spending the extra
money under the "anti-recession"
highway hill passed by Congress
last April, sfete Highway Engi
neer W. C. Williams said today.
Under that bill. Oregon 2ets an
additional $5,900,000 in federal
funds, provided it meets the dead
line. The deadline is that the projects
under the program must be con
tracted by Dec. 1, 1938. and com
pleted within a year after that.
Williams said Oregon put 59
projects under the program, and
that only one of these Jobs re
mains to be contracted. That it
due in November.
By JAMES DEVLIN ,
NEW YORK (AP) The race
between two civic-minded multi-
millionaires for the New York gov- j
ernorship gives some signs of be
ing closer than expected. The odds
presently favor Gov. Averell Har
nman'i re-election bid. '
Nelson A. Rockefeller, a new
face before the voters, has been
waging a spirited, personable, non
stop campaign that has encourag
ed Republicans.
They think Democrat Harriman
it no longer the shoo-in he ap
peared to be before the August
nominating conventions.
Manhattan bookies rate Harri
man at this point as a 9-5 favorite
in the Nov. 4 balloting.
Republican leaders insist that a
poll conducted under GOP aus
pices in September showed Rocke
feller and Harriman running even.
They report that each polled 40
per cent and 20 per cent were un
decided. "Anybody can take polls to
prove what they want." snapped
Harriman. He predicted the Dem
ocrats would do far better than
they did in1 the election he won
four years ago.
Some top Democrats have coun
seled against complacency or
against being lulled into a false
sense of security by the Demo
cratic landslide in Maine Sept. 8.
One such warning came from Gov.
Edmund Muskie, elected senator
in that election.
Harriman is taking nothing for
granted. He has been visiting ev
ery section of the state to speak
and shake hands with the same
fervor he did in 1954.
That year he won the governor
ship over Republican Sen. Irving
M. Ives by the squeaky margin of
11.000 votes of more than five mil
lion cast.
Since then he has had ample op
portunity to build his political
strength.
The prominence of his office nas
kept him before the public for
four years, in contrast with 1954
when he was appearing before the
voters for the first time after
years in federal appointive offices.
He was able to build the Demo
cratic organization through
patronage after 12 years of Re
publican state adminstration un
der Gov. Thomas E. Dewey.
, Meanwhile, came what Harri
man calls "The Eisenhower re.
cession." the Sherman Adams
case, some uneasiness over Eisen
hower's Quemoy policy, and the
Democratic triumph in Maine.
All added up to give the Demo
crats confidence that this is their
year.
But New York Republicans con
fend the New York campaign will
hinge on state issues not Quemoy
or Adams, although Rep. Kenneth
B. Keating, their candidate for the
Senate, was one of the GOP office
seekers who demanded that Ad
ams resign.
Although Rockefeller doesn't
mention it, Republicans have been
stressing quietly the difference in
the candidates' ages.
Republican campaign literature
notes that Rockefeller is 50 and
that Harriman "becomes 67 on
Nov. 15."
Rockefeller's activty in philan
thropic work for minority groups
long before his name cropped up
as a possibility for governor may
help him in strongly Democratic
New York City.
He has contributed to low-cost
housing in Puerto Rico and Israel
and has participated in causes for
Negro advancement.
Rockefeller himself appears in
creasingly confident.
"I think I've got a fighting
chance to win," be said early in
the campaign. Now, he tells his
audiences "why the Republicans
are going to win."
Tops in Republican optimism
probably, is L. Judson Morhouse,
New York state GOP chairman.
He interpreted Muskie's victory in
Maine as a happy omen for Rocke
feller. "The outcome in Maine," said
Morhouse. "actually was a per
sonal victory for a vigorous young
public "igure one, it can be said,
with a knack of getting things
done. . .and augurs well for Nel
son Rockefeller and the Republi
can ticket here in New York
slate."
