An example of an all-out effort to recapture the theme

Others Going All Out
Other towns, many of them with far fewer resources
than Roseburg, are also going all out.

Khrushchev's Prediction
Panning Out At Geneva
WASHINGTON (AP) - The
Soviets with help from the
West, which let Itself get tangled
in childlike tabletalk are turn
ing the foreign ministers meeting
into the kind of spectacle predict
ed by Premier Nikita Khrushchev.
The ministers, he said, would
eet boeeed in details. He wanted
first a summit meeting of the
"heavyweights." After they had
reached agreements, he said, the
ministers could get together to
stew over the details.
Khrushchev finally consented to
a Big Four foreign ministers con
ference United States,' Soviet
Union, Britain, France because
the West insisted. The meeting
was to open Monday. So what
happened?
Before the ministers could even
hold their first session they got
snarled in an argument over
the kind of table to use which
for all practical and realistic pur
poses was strictly kid stuff.
It hardly added, in the eyes of
the world, to the dignity and ser
iousness of the meeting.
The West, allied with West Ger
many, refuses to recognize the
legitimacy of the East German
Communist government, which is
a Soviet satellite. But the U.S.S.R.
wants exactly this kind of Western
recognition for the East Germans.

over, the Soviets' Andrei Gromy-

ko got the conference further
confused. He demanded both West
and East Germany be allowed to
take part in the Big Four confer
ence as full participants.
This is exactly what the West
didn't want for East Germany,
that is for fear that Western
permission for East Germany to
sit in as a full participant might
be interpreted as Western recog
nition for East Germany.
To avoid such an interpretation,
the West had been willing for the
two Germanys to sit in the con
ference room but with the under
standing they would be merely
consultants who couldn't speak
unless asked a question.
A compromise was worked out.
The two Germanys couldn't be
full participants, but instead of
having to wait to speak until
spoken to, both could ask permis
sion to be heard on any subject.
So the first brief meeting of the
Big Four was held and finished.
Then Gromyko messed things up
for the second meeting. This time
he demanded that the Soviet sat
ellites, Poland and Czechoslovakia
be allowed to take part as full
participants.
Meeting Breaks Up
The West objected. So the sec
ond meeting, Tuesday, broke up.
It, too, was brief.
None of Gromyko's demands
that the two Germanys, plus Po
land and Czechoslovakia take full
part in the Big Four conference
should have caused any sur
prise. Last March, when the Soviet
Union agreed to a Big Four meet
ing, it demanded the full partic
ipation for the two Germanys and
Poland and Czechoslovakia.
The reason jGromvko was able
to snarl up the meeting now with
this demand for those countries
was that the Big Four foreign
ministers hadn't worked out de
tails before they met. They are
tangled in the details now.
But the way Gromyko handled
all this can be interpreted as a
form of Soviet contempt for the
whole idea of a foreign ministers
meeting.
He could have made all his
demands at one time on the first
day. Instead, he stretched them
out, delaying by that much any
effort by the Big Four to get down
to the business which brought
them to Geneva, the discussion of
Germany.

World's Split
Reflected On
WASHINGTON (NEA) -News
today goes to two extremes. It
takes a discerning reader not to
be confused or misled by what he
finds in his favorite newspaper.
There is bad news from many
parts of the world. The significant
point is tnat most ot it is ot com
munist making.
In far-off Tibet, Chinese Commu
nists overthrow the Dalai Lama
kill and imprison unknown thous
ands in a ruthless display of force
to crush opposition to Peiping's ag
gression.
In Malaya, the young governor
accuses the Chinese Reds of a plot
to take over tneir country.
In Iraq, the Communists appear
to nave seized mucn power in Pre
mier Abdul Karim Kassem's rev.
olutionary government, subverting
it to Moscow direction against the
Arabs.
And in East Germany, the Rus
sians themselves, acting directly,
threaten to drive American, Brit
ish and French forces out of Berlin
to push the iron curtain west.
THE NUMBER ONE job of the
world's statesmen today is to find
some way to curb the growing ma
terial ' power of the Communist
countries, or to direct it into peace
ful channels.
For the possibility of war break'
ing out in any one of the above-
mentioned countries or in other
areas like Formosa, Korea or Viet
Nam by accident if not by de
sign is something real and
frightening.
Couple this with the still uncer
tain news on the rate of strontium
90 fallout from nuclear weapons
testing it's enough to make stout
hearted men say, "Oh! What's the
use!"
BUT FORTUNATELY, there is
no mass movement of people
screaming into the night, leaving
home and family for a final fling
before it's all over.
One reason may be that there's
another side of the news these
days. It makes any kind of escap
ism seem foolish.
For the word from scientists and
others who are trying to do some
thing useful in this world is all to
the good.
On a hundred or more laboratory
fronts researchers probe cause
and cure for the killer cancer.
Progressive research to improve
polio vaccines and develop "four-m-one"
shots offer the prospect of
healthier generations to come.
In a completely different field,
the second voyage of the atomic
submarine Skate under the polar
ice cap is something more than
discovery of another site from
which to wage missile warfare.
It is another chapter in man's
exploration of this earth, to learn

Charles H. Callison, conserva

States Rights Bill
Decision Pressed
WASHINGTON (AP) - South
erners and their allies on the
House Judiciary Committee over
rode its leadership and approved
here a states rights bill aimed
at a Supreme Court decision.
The bill by Rep. Howard W.
Smith (D-Va) would declare that
no act of Congress supersedes a
state law unless Congress speci
fically declares its intention of do
ing so, or unless the laws are
clearly incompatible.
It was inspired by a Supreme
Court decision voiding conviction
of a Communist under a Pennsyl
vania sedition law. The court held
that a federal antisubversive law,
which also had been introduced
by Rep. Smith, had pre-empted
the field.
The vole at the closed - door
committee meeting was reported
to be 17-15 to approve the
measure.
The bill is opposed by the De
partment of Justice on the ground
it would create confusion in fields
such as transportation where both
the states and the federal govern
ment have legislated.
It was opposed in the committee
by Chairman Emanuel Celler ID
NY) who said there will be "a
powerful minority report" asking
the House to defeat it.

Pan-American Bank
WASHINGTON (AP)-President
Eisenhower has asked Congress

The United States would invest

American republics would put up

The President said he is strong

Prelects Opposed
Listed by Callison as projects
opposed by the federation and
most local and regional conserva

border, if built below the mouth
of Imnaha without adequate fish
passage facilities; Wenaha Dam,

in Montana.
Other dams, Callison said, would
"comparatively speaking" inflict
minor losses on wildlife and recre
ation resources while satisfying
requirements and hydroelectric
power production needs by the
Northwest. Those projects includ
ed: Libby Dam, Montana; Paradise
or Knowles Dam, Montana; High
Pleasant Valley Dam, Idaho and

Alex Radin, general manager of

Radin supported the budgeted

Other budget - recommended
funds for which Radin sought ap

Radin also supported the budget
