POSTMASTER ISSUE
By Charles V. Stanton
A couple of writers to the Reader Opinions column
recently commented on the postmaster issue being raised
in Roseburg. They said, in effect, the postmastership is
a political plum to be awarded under the spoils system,
so what?
With that sort of an approach I can find myself in a
measure of harmony. I don't necessarily agree with the
patronage angle. Perhaps better efficiency would cut
down some of the postal deficit. But, if we are to be
truthful and honest about our intent and feelings and in
our public statements, I have little complaint. I have
much complaint, however, when high-up officials try to
pull the wool over our eyes, try to "brainwash" the public.
We have a big issue here in Roseburg concerning the
naming of a postmaster. The postmaster's job in previous
years has been a prize to be passed out by the winning
party to one of the "faithful."
The Republicans in that regard have been no better
than the Democrats and have , been just as assiduous in
getting one of their own number into the office. It is true
that the Roseburg postmaster for the past eight years has
been a career man, but let's not overlook the fact that he
was named to the job as a Republican.
The acting postmaster, Norman Hess, also is a Repub
lican. The former postmaster retired early, hoping that
Hess could be permanently appointed. But no appoint
ment has been made to date.
Rules Apply
Had the strategy worked, Republicans would have
been quite happy.
Civil Service regulations provide that the postmaster
shall not be removed when the party changes. That was
a victory for the Democrats engineered by the late Presi
dent Roosevelt His own; appointees could be removed
only for cause something rather difficult to do.
Since Roosevelt succeeded in laying the pavement to
smooth the way of his own appointees, people have been
kidded into the belief that the office of Postmaster is a
Civil Service job.
But that is only partly true.
A postmaster in a station the size of Roseburg can't
be removed except for the good of the service. But if a
vacancy is to be filled, the appointment takes on a politi
cal tinge.
Thus, when the former postmaster retired, hoping to
do so in time to get another career man, a Republican,
into the job, the appointment to the local office became
a possible, plum for the Democrats.
Roseburg isn't alone.
Eisenhower made some 1200 appointments in the clos
ing weeks of his administration. But a Democratic Con
gress withheld approval. It has been indicated that all
appointments have been rejected.
The way in which that was done arouses my ire.
Public Kidded
Had the Postmaster General come out flatly and said
the Democratic Party as a bit of patronage intended to
fill vacancies with people of its own choice, I wouldn't
have had so much complaint
But in demagoguic fashion he made the statement
that Eisenhower had made "political appointments," but
that the Democrats proposed to appoint people "respon
sible to the administration."
If that isn t a deliberate attempt to kid, fool, hoodwink,
brainwash the public, what is? Political cozenage has no
business in our government, and it makes no difference
which party originates it !
If the issue is frankly stated, as was penned by the
two contributors to this newspaper, that's one thing. A
statement designed to deceive the public is another.
Many bridges apparently still are to, be crossed Wore
Roseburg gets a postmaster. I'm anticipating that there'll
be an appreciable measure of politics.
I feel sorry for Norman Hess and the publicity ho has
been given. If he is unsuccessful in his effort to gain the
appointment (and it would be my opinion that his
chances are slim) he will unquestionably remain as a ca
reer man and will still be assistant postmaster under the
man who is named for the office.
If the new postmaster, providing a Democrat is select
ed, holds no animosity, the local situation will work out
satisfactorily. If, on the other hand, he resents Hess' can
didacy, he can make life miserable for his assistant.
Thus, while Hess can be extremely grateful and proud
he has so many friends, he can also be unhappy that the
issue is being so vigorously pursued.

It is now 16. There are proposals
in the legislature to raise it to 18.
One not very sound argument in

Perhaps that illustrates as well
as anything else the fuzziness of

Glide Resident Asks
Tolerance For Steve
To The Editor:
This is not only my opinion, but
also that of others I have talked
with who live in the Glide area.
We wonder why the concentrated
search for Steve Solovich was not
started until recently, since he
has been free for over a year.
And why, all of a sudden is it
so important to capture himY.
All Stevo wants out of life is to
live bv himself in the hills that
he quite evidently loves away
from people. Is this what you call
crazy or wild? Sometimes, when
I read of the things some so-called
sane people do, I think he might
bo smarter man most.
Perhaps if some of us had been
the object of his more or less
petty theivery we would look at
him in a different light. But that
still doesn't explain why it has
taken all this time to begin the
search for him. The reason
couldn't be that he has just started
to take the lew items he needs
for survival he's done that
since his escape!
Oh yes, I can see why he has
to be taken into custody now, after
he has finally turned "vicious ,
Any animal, even the human ani
mat, when continually "hounded"
will eventually turn upon his pur
suers and fight back. Survival is,
after all. the greatest human drive,
We, who have been watching all
the so-called attempts to catch
him, would be laughing at the
"hunters" if the apparent end now
wusn l so pathetic.

The Cartoonist Says:
""And Now a Word From My Sponsor"
JENKINS SB
Salem misses that point entirely,
be told his hearers.
Judging by his talk in Portland,
as reported by the press, Mr.
Lunsford doesn't think too much
of Oregon's driver education pro
gram. He told bis listeners:
"You (of Oregon) passed a driv
er education measure, in 1957, but
so far only 12 per cent of your
eligible students have received
training. Last year there was more
than $200,000 left in the state driv
er training budget for other de
partments to fight over."
Which is to say:
Not enough of Oregon's eligible
teenage students have been given
the kind of driver training that
will enable them to handle an
automobile with reasonable safety
to themselves and others. '
Mr. Lundsford's address contains
a lot of food for thought. It suggests
that the teenagers of today can
no more be kept out of automobiles
than their predecessors of a
couple of generations ago could be
kept away from horses.
In those benighted days, parents
would have loved to keep their
youngsters away from horses....
just as we of today would love
to keep OUR youngsters away
from cars. Horses were dangerous
then. Cars are dangerous now.
But our great-grandparents were
wise enough to realize that young
sters and horses (which were then
the prevailing mode of transport
ation) just COULDN'T be kept
apart. So they compromised by
teaching their children (usually
at a tender age) how to hadle
horses safely and intelligently.
We'd better take a leaf from
their books.

At the same time, the
Independent Grocers Association
endorsed the bill.
Eugene Lowe, IGA president,

stamp savers against losses from
stamps, issued by financially irre
sponsible stamp companies.
ine stamp companies said the
bill actually would kill the
stamps.
The bill, by Rep. C. R. Hoyt,

the value of the stamp must be
printed on its face, that stamps
must be redeemable in either
cash or merchandise, and that
stamp companies could not give
exclusive franchises to stores or

WSU Issues Order
Ending Race Bar
PULLMAN, Wash. (AP)-Fra-ternities

consideration for membership to
any student because of his race,
religion or national origin, will not
be recognized after next Sept. 1,
president C. Clement French an

French said that all but three of
the 38 such groups on the WSU

clauses in their constitution that
deny membership on the basis of
these three considerations. 1
Dr. French emphasized that
Washington State has no intention

Police Believe Children
Of Carnival Worker Dead
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) The
four children whom Mr. and Mrs.
Kenneth Dudley claim they gave
away three years ago to a fellow
carnival worker are not missing,
but dead, police believe, -
This macabre conclusion was
announced by authorities Thurs
day night two weeks from the
day that the emaciated body of
a tilth Dudley child, carol Ann
7, was found in a woods near
Lawrencevilie, Va.
Dudlev. 47. and his wife Irene.
44, are being held on charges of
neglect which caused Carol Ann
to die of malnutrition and expo

wick County and state police offi
cials Thursday night said their ex
tensive investigation into the case
of the missing Dudley children in
dicated "none are alive."
The statement said it is now be
lieved the four "died from time
to time in the period from July
1958 until the end of the year
I960." The four are Norman, who
would be 12; Charles, 10; Claude,
5: and Debbie. 4.
A police investigator said the
investigation indicated the four
children died at numerous places
out under the same circumstances
as Carol Ann s death.
Police said the Dudleys, itiner
ant carnival workers who were
down on their luck, told officers
they gave away the four children
because they "could not take care
of them," but didn't remember to
whom they were given.
Thursday night's statement was
signed Dy BrunswicK county um
monweath's Attorney Thomas E
Warringer Jr. and issued also in
behalf of county Sheriff W. E.
Hill and State Police Investigator
E. M. Lloyd.
The three officials firmly re
fused to say what information had
been turned up in their investiga

missing Dudley children were
dead.
The statement added the Dud

Opera Singer
Rides Elephant
SAN ANTONIO, Tex. (AP)-An
opera singer who likes toy ele
phants so much she sometimes
carries a 24-pound one for good
luck had her first close-up meet
ing with a live elephant.
Soprano Frances Yeend found
him "kind of like a cactus plant."
Her verdict: "I wouldn't want
a real elephant."
Miss Yeend, here to appear in
the San Antonio Grand Opera
Festival, admitted that it would
not do her much good if she did
want one. A live pachyderm
wouldn't fit very well into a
6-room New York apartment that
already houses 80 toy elephants,
Miss Yeend's oil paintings and her
husband, pianist James Benner.
After Thursday's meeting with
Mole, a 25-year-old Indian ele
phant in the San Antonio Zoo.
Miss Yeend said "He was kind
of like a cactus plant" referring
to the bristles in his trunk. She
also noted he had a backbone so
sharp one could ride him only
in a saddle or howdah.
The zoo provided a howdah of
sorts a kind or piank-on-top-of-a-girdle
thing" in Miss Yeend's
eyes and she rode blissfully
around the zoo four times.
The San Antonio safari was ar
ranged after officials of the San
Antonio Svmphony learned Miss
Yeend had never been near
enough to an elephant to tonch
one. in spite of a' love of the big
beasts that dates back to her
childhood in Portland, Ore.
So fascinated by elephants Is
she that she sometimes carries
a 24-pound tcakwood and ivory el
ephant named "Klephantus" with
her for good luck while she is in
New York.
inouncement Is borne out, seven of
the 10- Dudley chudren will be
known to be dead. Known to be
alive are two daughters who live
in Syracuse, N.Y., and a daugh
ter, Christene, 2la, who was with
the Dudleys when they were ar
rested in Fuquay, N.C., Feb. 10.
Dudley served a prison term in
New York State when convicted
in 1947 of illegal burial of one
child, Kenneth, 6, who he said
died during a coughing spell. An
other child died about the same
time.
Police said Carol Ann Dudley
died in the back seat of the Dud
leys' 11-year-old automobile on
Feb. 6 as the couple drove south
on U.S. 1. Hill said the parents
admitted they wrapped the body
in a blanket and put it in the
woods off the highway, where it
was found Feb. 9.
Dudley now is in the state peni
tentiary in Richmond, where he
was taken several days ago after
a suicide attempt in the Brans
wich jail. Mrs. Dudley still is in
jail at Lawrencevilie.
Senate Food Bill
Hits House Snag
By PAUL W. HARVEY JR.
SALEM (AP) The Senate
passed resolution to order the
state Public Welfare Commission
to distribute government surplus
foods immediately ran into a
roadblock Friday in the Oregon
House of Representatives.
The House voted 38-21 to send
the resolution to the Joint Ways
and Means Committee for a study
as to how much it would cost. It
had been approved unanimously
by the upper house.
The Welfare Commission had
protested that it could not distrib
ute the food because it did not
have the money. It also said the
counties do not have the money,
either.
The move to send the resolution
to Ways and Means was made by
Rep. George Annala, D-Hood Riv
er. It won the backing of 28 of the
31 Democrats.
Annala said he had made an in
vestigation showing the cost of
distribution of the surplus foods
would be more than S2.5 million
during a two-year period.
He said it was not fair to give
the commission an order without
providing the money to pay for it.
But Mrs. E. G. Chuinard, R
Portland, argued for 'the resolu
tion's passage on grounds that its
purpose is merely to show that
the legislature is interested in
solving the surplus food problem.
Rep. Ed Benedict, D-Portland,
countered that the resolution
"wouldn't deliver one teaspoonful
of food to anybody."
Benedict already has intro
duced a bill to appropriate $2.4
million for the distribution.
Rep. Winton Hunt, R-Woodburn.'
argued that Oregon is only one of
eight states which do not distrib
ute surplus food to the needy.
The House also passed, and sent
to the Senate, a memorial asking
Congress to make surplus foods
available for the state's penal in
stitutions. Such food now is being
used in state hospitals.
And the House completed legis
lative action on a memorial ask
ing Congress to provide a Colum
bia River channel 40 feet deep
and 750 feet wide between Port
land and the Pacific Ocean. The
present channel is 35 feet deep
and 500 feet wide.
Legislation to create a state De
partment of Public Safely, was
criticized by the state Parole and
Probation Board. But no other ob
jections were made.
German Mercenary
Buried Lumumba
ROME' (AP) The Communist
line newspaper Paese Sera said
Friday a German mercenary
claimed he helped bury Patrice
Lumumba and two slain aides in
the jungle of Katanga Province.
The newspaper identified the
German as Gerd Arnim Katz. who
said he served in the Katanga
provincial army. It quoted Katz
as saying he fled to Leopoldville
after the burial, fearing for his
life, asserting four soldiers who
helped bury Lumumba had been
shot.
No other Rome newspaper car
ried his story. Katz was said by
Paese Sera to be in Rome eh
route home, but the German F.m
bassy said it knew nothing about
him.
Paese Sera said Katz professed
not to know who killed Lumumba,
but claimed the bodies were
brought to the army command by
Congolese soldiers under com
mand of 1 Belgian captain.
this appeared to be an echo oi
an earlier version carried by
Tanjug, news agency of Commu
nist Yugoslavia.
The Katanga government an
nounced Feb. 13 that Lumumba
and his two aides were massacred i
by village tribesmen on Feb. 12
and buried in an unmarked grave ;
