By' - v.-. i. ;v. tfrenk Jcftkins By FRANK JENKINS Personal note: In the mail recently, I received a rather interesting letter. It is from the office of the Democratic National Committee in Washington, and is signed by John M. Bailey, the committee's chairman. The salutation is Dear Fellow Democrat, and the letter goes on to say: "We had a great victory on No vember 8 when we elected Presi dent Kennedy and Vice President Johnson, but in doing so we .wound up with a THREE MIL LION DOLLAR DEFICIT. "You have! been a supporter in the past, and I am presuming an vour generosity in asking you to make an additional contribution to the end that once again we can have the Democratic Party sol vent. ' "I do hope that you will be able to fill out the enclosed card' and mail it with your contribution to me promptly. ; Hmmmmmmnn. I am afraid the committee has been misinformed aomewhere along the line. I am a registered Republican. My father was a registered Republican he fore me. His father was a regis tered Republican before that, I voted for Nixon. I was disappointed when by a narrow margin one of the par- rowest in the popular vote in our history he' failed to be elected. But- I am pleased to learn of the Democratic Party's concern over its three million dollar debt. I think political parties should be particularly concerned, because debt has wrecked MANY nations. Perhaps as many nations have been ruined by debt as by war. Debt is I highly proper thing for political parties to be concerned about. ' - : I personally, am concerned about nur 300 BILLION DOLLAR nation al debt and I hops the Demo cratic party will get so concerned about it that' it will do something about getting it PAID OFF. I have a personal reason for feel ing that way about it. I have two grandchildren, and I'd like very much to be able to feel that, when the time comes when their generation will take over, their equity in the United States of America will be worth . something. !' So, Mr. "Bailey, I thank you for your letter. . I am pleased to learn of your feeling about debt, I hope you luck in getting your party'! debt paid off and I hope mo.it sin cerely that as soon as you get your party debt paid you will tackle (he job of getting your coun try's debt paid off or at least paid down to the point where it jwill no longer endanger the future of our children and our children'i children. EDITORIAL PAGE 4 The News-Review, Roieburg Ore. Thur., June 29, 1961 MULTI-PURPOSE PROGRAM By Charles V. Stanton DEAR ABBY Abigail Van Buren 7, Producer's Wife Granted Divorce SANTA MONICA, Calif. (AP)- rroducer Harold HechTs wife won a divorce with testimony that they argued ahout everything "from fried veal cutlets to the TV antenna." Gloria B. Hecht, 33, said Wednesday that following domes tic differences her SO-year-old husband would leave home for a separate apartment he main tained. Ruling on custody of the couple's three children was post poned for 60 days. An appraisal was ordered of llechl fortune, estimated $2 to $4 million. The couple married Nov. 1, 1947, and separated July 18, 1959. Britisher Said Victim Of Curse Of Pharoahs LONDON (AP) Another mem. her of the British family said to be marked by the legendary curse of the pharoahs has died an un expected death, the fourth in the family since 1929. The death of Lord Wcstbury was announced today. He died four days ago in (iencva. Switzerland at the age of 46. The cause of death was not given. His father, Capt. Richard Beth ell, also died suddenly and at the same age. Bcthell had a hand in excavat ing the tomb of the pharoah, Tut ankhamen, in 1923, A curse on a tomb relic said, "Death shall come on swift wings to him that SEASHORE CONTROL Lane, Coos and Dowlas counties should lose little time acting- on the recommendation from the Oregon Committee on Natural Resources that the coastal strip, commonly known as the Sand Dunes Recreation Area, be adequately zoned, I believe. . . The committee has been informed that a substantial real estate development is planned near Woahink Lake in Lane County, and that a "Coney Island" type of private activity also is proposed. Developments of a similar na ture are pending-, the committee reports. In a letter to the three county courts, the committee says, in part: The committee was firm In Its conviction that orderly eco nomic devalopmant of the area Is certainly desirable, particular ly when such development is compatible with the scenic and rec reational values Involved. An example ef this type development is the planned facility of International Paper Company near Gardi ner and the recently opened Menatha Weedenware plant north ef Coes Bay. Each ef these developments hat received the approval of the State agencies concerned. The committee believes that with proper ceerdination, economic development and continued enjoyment of the area's scenic and recreational resources can oe hand In hand, ' ' The effort to create a proposed National Park from Ore gon's marvelous coastal playground in Coos, Douglas and Lane counties has never succeeded in-convincing me en tirely that Jt is either desirable or practical, . . Uniformity Needed ; While I must admit I definitely am not strictly opposed to a .National Park, I haven't, at the same time, been en tirely "sold" that the State of Oregon, which already has around one-half its land area under federal control, should permit the National Park Service to "erect a fence" around one of our finest playground areas and turn it over to private monopolistic control, at cost to the individual user. Much of the area already is reserved by the U.S. Forest Service, and the public is admitted without cost. Private enterprise is permitted to provide the services needed by the public, under a competitive system, loo, a development proposed ' under Forest Service direction would cost only one-fifth as much public-money as is need ed to set; up, a National. Park. National Park advocates, on the other hand, contend creation of such a park is needed to preserve the scenic and recreational values, and that advertising would bring in vast numbers of people who would add to the state's tourist income. ' . Regardless of whether the sand dunes area eventually is to become a National Park, or whether, as has been pro posed by Congressman Durno, the Forest Service shall be given money with, which to proceed with a needed develop ment, some action should be taken at once to assure a planned development. And such development should be uniform. Program Essential The' Oregon Committee oh Natural Resources has rec ommended that Lane. Coos and Douglas counties should proceed' immediately to? zone the sand dunes area "to as sure that the scenic and recreational values of the . . coastal strip be so conserved as to permit continued en joyment of , these features by our citizens and the many visitors who come here annually." The State of Oregon cannot zone these lands. It is up to the three counties to act. Each county court must vote by resolution to establish the proposed zones. It is not neces sary that property owners within the area petition for zon ing. Oregon law 215.220 gives the county court the right to create zoning districts, outside incorporated cities, for "the public interest, health, comfort, convenience, preser vation of the business safety, morals, order and the public welfare." It is my belief that inasmuch as the sand dunes area is located in three counties, the three counties should act in a joint and uniform manner. I would suggest that the three county courts each ap point one person to make up a three-man committee; that this committee be instructed to recommend a program to the courts. After the program lias been suggested, the three county courts should get together either to approve the program or to agree upon changes. The program, which probably should be worked out in cooperation with the Oregon Committee on Natural Re sources, and possibly the committee on Planning and De velopment, would set up a master plan for the develop ment of the area. It at least should specify standards to preserve scenic and recreational values until some final de termination on a national scale is forthcoming, thus . pre venting haphazard, and perhaps undesirable, development pending final control. She's, Got A Right, Mom! DEAR ABBY: Ever since our. George I knew he had been mar- daughter was five years old we sent her for ballet, tap and acro batic dancing lessons. She became quite good, and danced in many amateur shows around town. She never cared to go to college. She is 23 and has been working in the city for over a year. She says she is dancing, but she doesn't say where. My husband thinks it is some kind of girlie show. She is supporting herself, and sending a little money home. If she is in a girlie show, should we let her stay? We raised her to be a virtu ous, church-going girl. BUBBLES' MOTHER DEAR MOTHER: Your daugh ter Is 23. Many girls In "girlie shows" are "virtuous and church going." If she Is grinding (end bumping) out an honest living, leave her alone. DEAR ABBY: I know you get lots of requests, but I don't know where else to go for this infor mation. I have tried every cook book I could get my hands on, and I can't find a recipe for cav iar. There a:s recipes which IN CLUDE caviar, but how do you make caviar? WOULD LIKE TO MAKE IT DEAR WOULD: All right. This sounds like a fishy request, but I'll bite. Caviar is prepared and salted roe of the sturgeon and other large fish. It's more commonly known as "fish eggs." Fish produce it, and people buy It.

I keep getting bills, mail and telphone calls for two of his ex-wives, be cause they go by the name of Mrs. George Smith. One of his ex-wives remarried again, but she divorced her second husband, and went back to using my husband's name. An other ex-wife never gave up his name.

Morgan Sworn In This was disclosed Wednesday when Swindler, of Nashville.Tenn., and Howard V. Morgan, of Sisters, Ore., Kennedy appointees, were sworn into office.

James Marlou) East, West Going Through Repeat Of An Old Problem WASHINGTON (AP) It's like playing a slow waltz on an old phonograph record all over again. - Almost move by move, state ment by statement, Russia and the West are going through i rep etition of the Berlin problem of 1958-1959. That time Premier Khrushchev threatened a showdown in six months but let it melt away. Now he' set another six-month dead line. . Maybe now It will reach a cri sis. Maybe it won't since neither Khrushchev nor the West wants war. It's possible he's stirring the Berlin kettle, with all its dangers, just to get concessions later from the worried West on something not now guessed. Here's a quick run-down on the similarity: 1. Khrushchev proposed West Berlin be made a "free city" Hal Boyle This Little Country I Like; It Just Fits A Post Card NEW YORK (PA)-American-tourists remarks that foreigners get tired of hearing: , "Put a sweater over your bi kini, Mildred, and then I'm' sure it'll be okay to go into the cathe dral. It'll kinda look like ypu'ro only wearing ahorta." "Yeah, the room's fine and the view's sure worth $8.50 a day plus breakfast but, I give up, where you got the TV set hidden?" "You can call 'em crepe su lettes if you want to. but hark home grandma called 'em jelly pancakes." "Excuse me. Avec vous un... uh...Avet vous une...uh...oh, what the hell! It's like beating your head against concrete." "This I the kind of foreign country I like. It just fits a post- "So that's the Venus de Milo? How do you tip her? She doesn't have any hands." Why is It the people working in the fields so many women, too have such a bent-over look?" "You mean you've never made one before? No, not half and half. You put in five of this, wave ot the bottle of that. And where in the hell is the ice?" "I love the English, don't you?

(AP) Bre merton's U2 telegram case is ap narentlv coine to be tried in court. Judge Charles T. Wright of Thurslon County Superior Court agreed Wednesday to hear an ap peal by Richard G. Jones, former Bremerton school teacher. Jones was fired on June 30, I960, by the board of Bremerton School District 100C after h i s world affairs class sent a tele gram to then President Risen hower. The telegram suggested that Eisenhower apologize to Rus sian Premier Khrushchev for the VI spy plane incident. DeFore Cramblitt, Kitsap Coun ty superintendent of schools, up held the board's action. Jones ap pealed to Lloyd J. Andrews, then state superintendent of public in struction. The appeal was still pending when Louis J. Bruno suc ceeded Andrews in January. Bruno said he couldn't give the case an impartial hearing because of things he had learned about it during his campaign. Jones ap pealed to the court from this de cision by Bruno. -. Wright directed Bruno and Cramblitt to present to the court July 17 a transcript of the pro ceedings before the county super intendent. He said he would prob ably set a trial date at that time. Fanning Sat And Sipped While Elephants Waited with the Allies pulling out their troops (Nov. 27, 1958). Khrushchev at the Vienna meet ing with President Kennedy ear lier this month proposed the same thing. (June 4, 1961). 2. President Eisenhower said this country had a firm obligation to defend the people of West Ber lin. (Jan. 7, 19591. Kennedy said the Allies are de termined to maintain their Berlin rights "at any risk" and their obligations to the Berliners. (Jan 1961). 3. Soviets called for a 28-nation conference to negotiate peace treaty based on reunification of Germany. (Jan. 19, 1959).j Soviets proposed calling a peace conference on a German peace treaty. (June II, 1981), 4. Walter Ulbricht, Communist! boss of East Germany, pledged! there would be no blockade if the j West "respected" East Germany's! "sovereignty," although the West j doesn't recognize East Germany; as a sovereign government. (Jan. 18. 1959). Khrushchev said there would be , no blockade of Berlin. (June 27, ! 1961). S. Khrushchev warned it would i be the "beginning of war" if the i Allies tried to force their way through,. to Berlin, although, in view of Ulbricht's promise of no ; blockade, no force would seem necessary. (Feb. 18, 1959). j Khrushchev, while saying there would be no blockade, warned the Western powers they'd get their come-uppance if they tried any rough stuff. (June 27, 1961) 6. In early 1959 Eisenhower snid because of talk about mo bilizing to defend Berlin mobili zation would be disastrous. Ken nedy, asked Wednesday about talk of mobilization said no such proposal had come to him. 7. Eisenhower told the Rus sians to cut out making threats. (Jan. 1, 1959) Kennedy told the Russians to rut out making threats. (June 28, 1961) 8. State Department said the United States would insist on dis cussing Berlin only as part of the wider problem of German unity. (Jan. 24. 1959) Kennedy said discussions with Russians would be profitable if they'd accept self-determination for East and West Berliners and which would mean some unity. ;June 27, 1961) 9. Eisenhower said the United States would be glad to join Rus sia in "any talks that deal fruit fully with the differences between nur different people and our dif ferent governments." (Jan. 28, 1959) High government officials said they're considering proposing a new round of East-West talks on of Bribery Charges Dropped At Track PORTLAND (AP)-The Oregon Racing Commission Board of Stewards today dismissed charges of bribery at the Portland Mead ows race track. Vascoe Park, presiding steward, said after a hearing that the board exonerated starter Gloyd Young, an assistant starter, Pat Powell, and a horse owner, Mrs. Eva Dis ney. Park said that Mrs. Disney, in' appreciation for the work of the sevfn-man crew at the starting gate, sent an envelope with seven $5 bills to the head starter, Gloyd Young. She said the money was for the crew to have a dinner. Park said Young returned the money to Mrs. Disney the next time he saw her. Park said she was surprised her action could be construed as a bribe attempt. Powell reported the incident, leading to the hearing by the Board of Stewards. Saturday. For the first time, there will be two assistant directors. They are O. K. Beals, chief of the division of foods and dairies for 17 years; and John W. Southworth, a Seneca cattle rancher who has not been with the department before. . They will share guidance re sponsibilities with J. F. Short, di rector of the department. Beals will supervise the new di vision of consumer and trade services, weights and measures, laboratory, and the plant division. Southworth 'Will direct the vet erinary and livestock services. E. A. Bamford Jr., business manager, is being raised to rank of division chief. Kenneth E. Carl, in charge of dairy sanitation, is promoted to chief of the dairy and consumer services division.

Short said that Southworth and Cross are the only two employes added to the department and that two positions have been abolished. They are Portland branch office manager an4 assistant animal di vision chief. Reader Opinions Two Wrongs Don't Make One Right Says Demo To The Editor: My attention has just been called to the editorial you reprinted from the Eugene Register-Guard con cerning my criticism of GOP Con gressman Walter Norblad for his reactionary vote against creating 73 new federal judgeships. While critical of me, the editorial is wel come because it does a good job of pointing up that Norblad's vote was spiteful and purely political. Granted that we needed new judges last year and granted the Democrats choose to gamble on Kennedy's election before authoriz ing them. But this does not justify Norblad's negative vote in 1961. Two wrongs still don't make one right. There was a demonstrated need for new judges a need proven and documented. By his negative, vote, the first district GOP Congress man went on record as favoring continued court congestion, contin ued delay in the disposition of cas es and for placing heavy burdens on the judges so serious in nature as to impede the efficient perform ance of judicial function.
