The- ! By; From Hong Kong: A dangerously explosive situa tion is building up in this British Crown Colony's refugee-infiltrated border area. fiew waves ol rem eces seeking to flee from hunger ridden Red China were reported cn route to the guarded border that divides Hong Kong from commu nism. Border police say tempers are growing short on all sides. The new refugees who at first submit ted docilely to arrest and deporta tion are growing more truculent Hong Kong's thousands of Chinese residents crammed into squana quarters are increasingly abusive of officials. Police and troops are showing the strain of almost con tinuous duty in me um. ;csi a now three weeks old. A British police officer was as saulted Monday by an angry Chi nese crowd that tried to stop truck convoys returning captured refu gees to the Red Chinese border. Angry villagers near the border threw stones and refuse at three other convoys and threatened to beat up a police guatf accompany ing another convoy. All this in a little 20-miles-square area that in the last year or so since hunger began to stalk abroad in Red China has accepted and made a place for and FOUND FOOD for a million or so starving Chinese refugees from commu nism! Hard to believe? Well, starvation knows no law. What to do about it? Nationalist China the rem nant of Old China that now finds a home on the island of Formosa, has offered to find a home and food for these starving refugees from Communist China. But Take a look on your map at For mosa. It is a relative speck of land In a wide ocean. Its area is only 13,890 square miles, it is about the size of the state of Maryland. The area of Oregon, which is not a large state as really large states go, is 96,981 square miles, nearly seven times the area of Formosa. Formosa'! population In 1958, when the last census was taken, was more than ten million. Orcgun's present population is about a mil lion and three quarters. The offer to take and feed refu cees from Communist China is a sign that Nationalist China's heart is in the right place. But Commu nist China s population is some where in the neighborhood of three-quarters of a BILLION or nearly one-fourth of the world'a population. In the face of a situation like th, '.flat can the little island of Formosa do? From Washington this morning comes the report that "high sourc es indicate that President Ken nedy thinks the U.S. must exert strong leadership in the plight of these Chinese retugecs ana, ai though there is no easy solution wc must not write the problem off as insoluble. What can we do? Here's a thought: Our warehouses contain a huge abundance of food.

Stanton Secretary of State Howell Appling reports he is prepar ing to make teats of electronic vote counting". This is most welpomfi news to me in narticular. Readers of this paper know that the use of machines to replace the lenjrthy, exhaustive and expensive counting of votes has long been one of my hobbies. The idea was not original, however, having been inherited by me from the late W. M. iBiin Tugman. Appling, knowing that machines play an important part in business, and desiring to use business methods ,in the operation of state affairs, has worked diligently with the makers of electronic devices tem. He has developed a plan duced to a card. Marks will as at present. An electronic will punch holes in tane to correspond to the markings on the ballot. The tape then will be fed into computers which will complete in minutes work that would take counting boards many hours, even days. ADnline reports also a project whereby voter registra tion data for all counties will far less cost and bother than at present. The secretary of state is indeed to be commended for his diligence in planning modern business methods for han dling the state's affairs. HIGHWAY RUMBLE STRIPS TRIED The State of California with use of rumble strips to accidents, according to a report in the current edition of the Standard Oil Company s The California highway posted warning signs and had traffic. Now, however, it is experimenting with 25-foot long areas of rough textured aggregate placed on the appropri ate lanes at 60 to 100 foot intervals. The course texture of the surface causes a loud rumbling noise in automobiles and sets up a vibration. Tests indicate that the driver of a car immediately reduces speed when he strikes the noisy pave ment. The action is almost involuntary and automatic. One spot where the accident rate was 4.9 per year, was cut to 2 per cent. Another, was reduced to zero. It also is reported that reduced just as dramatically, fewer fatalities than do accidents occurring at high speed. The rumble strips are comparatively inexpensive, cost ing as little as $2 per square THE WELCOME MAT IS OUT Oregon will "roll out the welcome mat" Saturday. That's the day Oregon is to be Fair. Oregon Is seeking to show lions of tourists expected to pass through this state on the way to and from Seattle. Each road in and out of Oregon" sign to greet those coming in and a "Hurry Back" invitation to the outgoing traffic. Individual communities, at the same time, are doing their bit to encourage tourists to enjoy Oregon's "New Kun Tier." Roseburg, for example, has engaged in a widespread advertising campaign, has conducted a school for persons who will be in contact with tourists, has prepared souven irs, printed publicity, decals, secured rubber stamps for outgoing mail, and is seeking in other ways to invite tour ists oncK to the "10U Valleys live. James Marlow Economic Conference Ends Without Solving Problems WASHINGTON (API It would be nice to think a bunch of labor and business leaders, meeting in auditorium, could work nut their problems amicably by the use of intelligence and sweet reas onableness. That Isn't the history of Ameri can labor-ma'nagemen. relations. So it was no surprise, when President Kennedy called together 200 labor and management reprc scntatives this week to find an swers for keeping the economy sound, that after two daya they left without solving anything. There's no reason to think that if they meet again they'll do any better. Nevertheless, Kennedy said he thought there was value in this first one and will have others. It's possible a far smaller meet ing might have accomplished more. Kennedy's permanent 21 man advisory committee seven each from labor, management and the public has made progress. But this committee was con fronted with cnecific problems. like automation and collective bar- gaining, and mine up with roc- ommendations. The 200-inun meet ing was supposed to discuss ev erything in the book. while the very number of them foredoomed them to no agreement ; so did the frt that thev had in deal with generalities instead ofn"d ,0 tio for ,ncm- specifics.

But they didn't. They had to be hit on the head with a govern ment club. For instance, employers through most of American history fought the attempts of their workers to organize Into unions which could ' bargain for all of them. It was to the benefit of the em ployers to keep the employees weak by keeping them divided. Finally, the government had to step in and, through the IMS Wag ner Act, force them to bargain with unions. Then, when Congress thought unions in turn were getting too powerful, it stepped in again and through the 1947 Taft-llarlcy Act imposed new restrictions on both unions and employers.

He leaves a trail of clothes from the kitchen to the bathroom. He never puts the cap on a tube of tooth paste or shaving cream. He never hangs up anything or puts his soiled clothes in the hamper. Hon estly, you would think he was a little boy. Why are men so lazy and what can a wife do about this? EXHAUSTED DEAR EXHAUSTED: Your hus band's sloppirwss his nothing to do with laxiness. His mother rwvtr finiihtd "raising" him. Finish the job. DEAR ABBY: I am a daughter in law who is stuck with my hus band's mother 24 hours a day. She has three daughters, all of them married, and much better off fi nancially than we are. But they refuse to keep her or give us a penny toward her expenses. She is 66 and in poor health. Her mind is going, too, and I can't trust her alone in the house. I didn't marry my husband to be a 24-hour nurse for his mother, yet I can't put her out on the street. I told her daughters what I thought of them and now they aren't speak ing to me. I am only 37 and look like 50. What should I do? - STUCK Francis Stilley Apartment-Size Gardener Waits Birds Of Paradise NEW YORK (AP) My garden doesn't grow with silver bells and cockle shells, but the things it does grow with are just as strange. My garden isn t even outsiae. It's on window sills, tables, book cases, shelves and counter tops and there's even an apartment sized tree growing out of a big pot on the living room floor. As a matter of fact, it isn t my garden at all. It belongs to my husband. He tenderly places the seeds and bulbs in the dirt. I only water the plants, dust them, ply them with the latest scicntuic food, move them from window to window to get the sunshine and pick up the dead loaves that clut ter the floor. The horticultural expert in our family is a great believer in try ing to grow anything diiicrcnt ana unusual. No petunias or zinnias or him. Every year he studies the seed catalogs with more enthusiasm than wisdom, and would send oft Reader Opinions Proposed Boys' Camp Site Draws Objection To The Editor: I am wondering how many peo ple in Myrtle Creek and vicinity realize where the proposed work camp for delinquent boys is to be located? It is a ranch on Bilger Creek Road right in the middle of the community. It lies on both sides of the county road, about 4W miles from the City of Mrtle Creek. In my opinion, it is not a prop er location for this type of cor rectional institution. Such an insti tution should be located in a more remote or isolated area so that the general public would not have to pass through the grounds in the everyday routine of going to and from their homes. Although this property may be donated to the county, it will still require a large sum of the tax- payer's money to develop usable facilities. The existing buildings are old and unsuitable. The water supply during the drier season of the year is extremely limited. Therefore it will be difficult to supply 15 to 20 year-around resid- i ents with domestic water. It seems to me that a project of this sort should have water for irrigation so that they could raise part of their own fond. To my knowledge, there would be no water for irrigation. I have been advised that these boys will he rilling on the public school buses and attending the pub lic schools right along with your children and mine! Don't you feel that there is al ready too much delinquency in our community without adding the in fluence that an institution of this kind could bring? A public hearing on this pro posed work camp will be held at the County Court House on Thurs day. May 31, at 7:30 P.M. 1 urge all interested persons to turn out for this meeting and decide wheth er or not this is what we want in our midst. Mrs. Violet M. Wallace N. Myrtle Rt.

And aren't we automatically invited to the wedding or must we have an invi tation too? This is very embar rassing.

The last time he ordered he picked out the most exotic item offered birds of paradise seeds, which were described in glowing terms that would put a sunset to shame. These arrived in due time, but though they were very interesting having little tufts of what looked like orange feathers all around them he couldn't decide which end was up. Just to be on the safe side, he planted half of them one way ami half the other. The directions did mention that it would take constant watering and three months for them to germinate, so we marked the ex pected date of the coming blessed event on the calendar and sat back to water and to wait. Sure enough, just about three months from the time they hit .pay dirt, we did too. One little green shoot came poking its way out of the soil. ' This was a time of great excite ment for my gardener. No hello kiss for me when he came home until after he'd checked the prog ress of the little plant. It wasn't until about a week later that we recognized it as a marigold plant that had sprouted from a seed left in the dirt he used. We are still waiting for the birds of paradise to fly up. The seeds of any fruit or vege table that find their way into our refrigerator later find their way into one of my husband's clay pots. Unfortunately, he just drops them in at random and when a shoot appears we never know whether it's going to grow into an apple tree or a watermelon.
