o o o o vbmtd-mhrOrhihlSfot . ' - In Day's By ' ' Frank Jenkins I 7 B "t Lei's talk about money today. It s an interesting subject. It al ways has been an interesting sub ject. John Bartlelt, in his indis pensable Familiar Quotations, de votes naii a page in me inaex w the subiect of money, with cita tions of what people have said about it down through the ages. One of the fundamental ones is from Arthur Hugh Clough, who causes one of the characters in his Mpsychus to say: "How pleasant it is to have money. Many contnv versial statements have been made about money, but nearly every body will agree with that one. .' As this is written, there are some weird talcs about money in the news: The case of the San Fran cisco barber, for example, who col lapsed and died of a heart attack the other day while watching a movie in a nearby theater. Aonarontly he had no relatives, and when the authorities started prodding around in his dusty, clut tered little shop they found $71,- 000 in cash tucked away in cubby holes here and there. He wasn't afraid of banks, as a bankbook was found Ehowing deposits of $40, 000, Apparently, he just liked to hide money away. Then there is the Los Angeles woman who tried to donate cash to a "Black Muslim'' cult to be used, she said, "to kill the white people." The donation was refused and she wandered into a nearby house, claiming that someone was trying to kill her. Police were called, and when thpv spnrpheH hpr Ihpv fniim! in her purse $11,427 in large and small bills. Stranger still, they found sewed into the hem of her dress 649 shares of blue chip stocks valued at current market prices at $30,040. She wore three wedding rings, two engagement rings and two diamond-studded watches. If one were minded to make a cynical crack.'this might be appropriate: The New Frontiers habit of carelossness with money scenis to Weirdest of all is the slory of the workmen who wen renovating 24 old one-car garages In Jersey City, N.J. They came across an old metal toolbox and two leather bags. The toolbox and the bags con tained TWO MILLION, FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND DOL LARS in currency, most of it in large bills. Two days later, in a boarded up garage only a block away from the one where the $2.4 million had boen discovered, detectives found $168,675.52 in cash. The cash was crammed into two old shipping bags. The garage was boarded up. The authorities, buttressed by some evidence found along with the cash, came to the conclusion that the money is the properly of a big-time Rambler by tho name of Jloriarty who is serving a two-to-three year sentence in the New Jersey stale prison. Fantastic? Wait a minute. You haven't heard it all. The Internal Ilevcnuo Service promptly filed tax liens totaling $3.4 MILLION against Moriarly on the basis of the $2.4 million found in the tool box and the old bags In the trunk of the old car in tho first garage. Which means that if Moriurty lays claim to the money, or can ho proved to be the owner of it, he can wind up by losing the $2.4 million ami IN ADDITION owing the government ANOTHER Mil LION DOLLARS! EDITORIAL PAGE 4 The New-Review, Roieburg, Ore. Mon., July 9, 1962 FOREMAN VERSUS ENGINEER By Charles V. Stanton We are daily hearing and reading more and more about conflict of opinions and practices in our forests. If one will trace back to the source of these disagreements i, ,iii firi tUnt fnr tho most nart hostility and contention arise between the snoose-chewing timberbeast, the product of years of untrammelled experience in log production, and the silviculturist with a college degree and a government bureau connection. - The grizzled old lumberjack comes from the school of cutting corners. He has no patience with these "boys" who, to him, are not yet dry behind the ears, yet who tell him what he must do. .,,, Hasn't he been logging for years? Didn t he learn his logging, his forest practices, from his grandfather and his father? Did he go to school to learn how to get out logs? Not on your life! He learned the hard way! Of course, that's exaggerated. A good many of our logging superintendents in the woods today are graduate engineers in forestry. But, employed by private compan ies, they too are interested in cutting corners and aren't overly tolerant of bureaucratic red tape. On the other hand, the U. S. Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management are required to follow instruc tions. When the fine print says things must be done in a certain way. the representatives of the bureau have no al ternative. They must follow the fine print. Controls Irksome Airain that is an exaggeration. The forest agencies use a good deal of modification where it can be shown that such modification is ot value, liut this ability to deviate from specifications come3 only with experience. The new employee is more apt to demand conformity with original specifications. Too, from his education, he is acquainted with the latest theories of silviculture theories with which the old-timer is apt to argue. But that brings us to a complaint often heard from the governmental bureaus they act as training schools for college graduates. As soon as a forester gains enough ex perience, they say, he is hired away by private industry. Private industry can pay more wages for a good man. Many of our top foresters in private industry today had their start in the Forest Service, Bureau of Land Manage ment or some other such agency. As our private timber is disappearing, we are becom ing more dependent upon timber from the public domain. Rigid controls are exercised over that resource. Cutting is regulated by principles of sustained yield, allowable cut, patch logging, standards of road construction, working cir cles and numerous other factors. A good many of our practical foresters haven't much patience with some of these ideas. They find controls irk some. They ve been in the habit of cutting corners on pri vate timber and they are not in sympathy with bureaucrat ic demands. Trouble Ahead This conflict, I fear, is ant to get worse before it ever gets better if it does. We re ncnring the point where we'll have little private timber left. We'll become increasingly dependent upon the federal reserves. Already we're observing strong pressures being exerted to alter the principle of sustained yield and allowable cut. The mills want more logs. Let the future take care of it self! ' That this pressure to break down the perpetual cut pro gram is gaining attention in the halls of Congress is evi dent from the expressions of some of our congressmen. most of whom haven't the faintest knowledge of forestry. These same congressmen, however, are far more interest ed in votes than in trees. Furthermore, who expects to live forever? Why should the livinor denv themsnlvm for the sake of those to come? That's the way a lot of people m nign piaces seem to ue reasoning. But, aside from these major issues, there's a cond munv smaller matters where the corner-cutting practices of the practical operator conflict with bureaucratic red tape, re strictions made for the whole rather than for specific in stance, the policy of operation handed down bv a swivel chaired operator in some distant office, rather "than being determined on the ground by a hard-bitten, grizzled fore man.

This double event marks a quarter-century of judicial service in which Justice Black has delivered almost as many controversial but influential decisions as the late Jus tice Oliver Wendell Holmes. H i s famous dissenting opinion made history in his 30 years on the court, 1902-32. Both Justices exercised their in fluence in the liberal tradition of trying to expand individual liber ties and strengthen men's free doms instead of constricting them. Whether this trend be approved or not, it must be recognized that in an era when the establishment of police states and totalitarian governments has been the easy way out for many countries, the republic of the United States has been able to strengthen the demo cratic rights of its people. Last year, when Justice Black was 75, he was honored at a for mal dinner for 500 people, given by the Fund for the Republic's Center for the Study of Democra tic Institutions. Dr. Robert M. Hutchins, president of the center and a former president of Univer sity of Chicago, in a principal ad dress, paid tribute to the many precedents that Black has over turned. He recalled that Black began this practice shortly after lie had been appointed to the court by President Roosevelt, had been con firmed and taken his seat in 1937. Black first attacked an 1898 de cision that regulatory bodies could not constitutionally fix rates if they did not yield a fair return on a fair value of the pruperty. Fair value was cost of reproduc tion, new, less depreciation. Justice Black was at first a lone dissenter in opposing this estab lished interpretation. It took him seven years to bring the majority of tiie court around to his opinion. In 1938 Justice Black assailed the rule against the interpretation of state law by federal courts, as handed down in 1842, and it was overturned. "If we explore the world of Jus tice Black's dissenting opinions," Hutchins summed up, "we would see that if we lived there, we would be in a different atmosphere. "The protection of the Fifth Amendment would be broadened . . . It would guarantee the right to be silent ... and no govern mental penalty of any kind could be inflicted on a witness availing himself of it. "Censorship, obscenity, legisla tion, and group libel would be un constitutional ... The doctrine that the necessities of the com munity must be balanced against the rights of the citizen usually loses would go out the window. "When we recall that all the great movements in constitutioral law in the last 75 years have been made by dissenting opinions," Hutchins declared, "we recognize that such decisions are not to be trifled with." This is much of the spirit that is evident in Justice Black's decision for the majority, this time in the New York state school prayer case.

Young Hearted It has been fully established that the United Slates Senate is about half populated with members whoso service goes back no farther than 1950. But how does this "au gust body" stack up on an age bases? Almost exactly half the member ship is 60 years of age or older. A goodly onc-lcnth of the members are in fact 70 or more, and among that list, of course, is one octogen arian, the venerable Sen. Carl Haydcn of Arizona. Yet these figures hardly make the Senate an old man's haven. For there are 33 senators between the ages of 50 and 60, another 15 who range from 40 lo 50, and even three who are under 40. So, in fact, 51 members of this "greatest deliber ative body in the world" fall below the 60-year mark. 11 might well be argued that this is an amazingly good balance be tween the seasoning of age and the freshness and drive of relative vouth. The word "relative" is important, however, for the Sen ate obviously is not a place well populated with mere hoys. In recent years, the notion of the Senate as by nature the more conservative of the two congres sional chambers seems to have been substantially altered. T h e House has been operating as a bar to the Senate's often somewhat more liberal versions ot major leg islative proposals, in both ihe Ei senhower and Kennedy adminis trations. Some, scanning Ihe age break down in the Senate, might lie templed to ascribe thai body's leanings to heavy sprinkling of members under 60. Yet of those 51, probably a good 20 have to be lagged as definite conservatives. The list includes two of Ihe most celebrated Tower and H a r r y Coldwater. On the other hand, roughly a doz en of over 60 have to be classed as liberals, at least in main major fields. Furthermore, though age break downs of the unwieldy t;t-tueni-her House are not available, all ! indications are that the age aver I age there is lower than the Sen- ate's. Clearly, there is no firm tie be ! tween advancing age and eonserv- ative legislature performance in ! the Senate. There are wild-eyed j old liberals like Sen. Paul Douglas I of Illinois, and green, young, con j servatives like Sen. Jack Miller of j Iowa.

The Russians are giving the appear ance in private negotiations that they mean business. The Laos is sue is not too important from the Soviet viewpoint, but apparently they want to use it as proof of tneir co-existence policy. Thaler says it looks increasingly as if Russia wants to use the Geneva stage as an occasion for minister ial contacts on Berlin soon. Algoria: The French government can ' be expected to thro-- its full support behind Algerian provisional Pre mier Ben Youssef Ben Khedda in his efforts to assert his govern ments authority over rebellious Vice Premier Mohammed Ben Bella. The French believe Ben Khedda is willing to carry out the Evian peace settlement. They re gard Ben Bella as a north African Fidel Castro. The French are wor ried that new violence in Algeria may touch off a new flight of frightened Europeans to France. About 350.000 have fled already and 150,000 of them still are in Marseilles where they have long outstayed their welcome and be come a major housing and em ployment headache. European Unity: Talks aimed at achieving Euro pean political unity have been at a standstill for nearly three months. Efforts to get them going again may be expected now as a sequel to West German Chancel lor Konrad Adenauer's visit to Paris. The effort would be made by France, West Germany and Italy. Viet Nam Frictions: I Friction is building up between the United Slates and South Viet Nam. The U. S. is injecting mas sive aid (more than $307 million this year) to help the Saigon re gime stop the Communist guer rillas. But in doing so the U.S. requires the South Vietnamese to "buy American." It also is turn ing down a request for an extra cash grant. At the same time it is spending money fast for anti guerrilla programs such as the construction of self-defended stra tegic villages. All these Saigon must help pay for. It is hard both on South Vietnamese sensi. bilities and on the regime's pocket book. At the present rate of spend ing South Vietnam will have a budget deficit this year of $33 to $44 million. And the Vietnamese view deficit spending as intoler able. .-'. i Republicans Suspect Trick In Citizen's Council Plan eminent in a note handed to Sov iet Ambassador Anatoly F. Dob rynin. Undersecretary of Stale George W. Ball gave the note to Dob'rynin at a 10 minute meeting at the State Department. The note urged the "complete and mutual abolition of all travel restrictions"' in both countries. In the past the United States has frequently protested what it con siders the "arbitrary manner in which Russia administers its trav el restrictions. Today's action leaves intact the travel restrictions imposed against Soviet officials and correspondents In this country. These restrictions limit them to travel within a 25 mile radius of the centers of Washington, D.C. and New York Cit', except upon the filing of 48 hours advance notice. In this case they can visit the three quarters of the United States which is not designated as a closed area. The U.S. restrictions originally were put into effect in 1955 in re taliation for Russian action, which now closes about one quarter of the Soviet Union to U.S. citizens and officials. However, in practical applica tion, about one half of the Soviet Union is off-limits to Americans. U.S. officials said that among the major cities previously closed to tourists and exchange visitors which are now open are: Charleston, W. Va.; Kalamazoo, Mich.; Memphis, Tcnn.; Youngs town, Ohio; Pittsburgh, Pa.; De troit, Mich.; St. Louis, Mo.; Hart ford, Conn.; Springfield, Mass.; Rochester, N.Y.: Cincinnati, Ohio; Palm Beach, Fla.; Houston and Dallas, Tex.; Santa Fe, N.M.; Alhuqueroue, N.M.; Phoenix, Ariz.; Las Vegas, Nov.; and San Diego, Calif. Officials said today's action will stand even if Russia does not reciprocate. Some 1.500 Russian exchange visitors and 500 tourists have vis ited the United States in the last year, and some 10,000 American tourists have been lo Russia. WASHINGTON (UPI)-Republi-cans who are neither moderate nor liberal suspect that there is a gimmick in the plan for a Repub lican National Citizens Council (RNCC). Some non-modern, non-liberal Republicans grimly suspect that RNCC is gimmicked for George Romney of Michigan. Romney is the automotive industrialist turned politician who is running as a Republican for governor of that state. Romney is suspect by the old line Republicans if, for no other reason, than that he is an avowed amateur and a probable liberal. Some non-modern, non-liberal Republicans suspect that the RNCC is gimmicked for Richard M. Nixon of California. Nixon is in the non-modern, non-liberal Re publican doghouse, not because he lost the 1962 presidential election, but because he made a pre-nom-ination deal with Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York. Their deal mightly affected the 1962 Re publican party platform. Nixon could have escaped the doghouse on that if he had been elected president. As a loser, he must live it down, which will not be easy. Eased Out The non-liberal, non-modern Re publicans are angrily unhappy be cause they have been eased out of party control over the years, be ginning in 1940 when Wendell L. Willkie of Indiana kidnapped the Republican Party and its presi dential nomination. Willkie was followed by Thomas E.

Old line Republicans arc cast ing about for a tag to be hung on the liberal, modern Republi cans. Perhaps it will be Libmo, coined from liberal and modern. The old liners have been angry for a long time and even more powerless than angry. Powerless anger leads to frustration and frustration to complexes, neuroses and such. The oldliners may yet land on the psychiatrist's couch, telling all. That would be quite a story, very long, because the old liners have not picked their man and nominated him for President of the United States since 1920, and that was 42 years ago. Recovery From Harding That was the year they picked Warren G. Harding of Ohio, a handsome, amiable U. S. Senator who found when he got into the White House that he was sur rounded by men who knew what they wanted and how to get it. The oldliners never have recov ered from Harding. What baffles, angers and now frustrates the non-Libmo Republi cans is that they are misunder stood. The Ljbmos scornfully as sume that the non-Libmos are try ing to take the Republican Party back to Warren G. Harding. The non-Libmos deny that. What they are trying to do, they try to ex plain is to take the Republican Party back to the political prin ciples that served it and the na tion well for scores of years be fore the Libmos got control and began trying to out-deal the New Dealers and out-frontier the New Frontier.
