'Somebody Left the 'Big Steel' Door Open!
4 The Nawi-Review, Roseburg, Ore.
It was a shocking morning.
For the first time in two years for
many of us in the county and quite a
few more years for most others, the work
week started on a daylight saving time
schedule.
It was bad enough that it was Mon
day let alone having to face it an hour
earlier.
The only thing that made it palatable
at all was that the work day would end
an hour earlier.
Daylight time started Sunday morn
ing, obviously with intent of giving us
time to get used to it. What we really
needed was a week off the job to make
the adjustment.
Seriously though, it will be nice again
to know it's the same time here as it is
in Eugene, Albany and Portland. Wheth
er or not daylight saving time or stand
ard time is better is now beside the point.
The important thing is the state is back
in some semblance of order.
Proponents and opponents of DST will
admit the last two years have been a
mess. The state legislature, in trying to
please everyone, agreed in 1961 to give
some clamoring northern Oregon coun
ties the right to go on DST. Legislators
who voted for it admit they didn't fore-
see the confusion which was going to re
sult. Technically the rest of the state was
to stay on standard time. But there was
nothing to make it mandatory for the rest
of the state. That's when the trouble be
gan. Many areas, particularly with strong
business connections with Portland, felt
they had a need and certainly as
much a right to go on daylight time too.
From then on, you needed a program,
if you were traveling through the state,
to tell what time it was.
WASHINGTON WINDOW
Deadly Strategy
iter
A deadly strategy that -served
to break the back of conservative
political efforts In behalf -of the
lale rlobort h- : Tan is snowing
up now in the campaign' to pre
vent the nomination of Sen. Barry
Goldwater, R-Ariz., for president
If the strategy could stop Taft
it probably can slop Goldwater.
Taft's bids for the Republican
presidential nomination were
strongly based in Ohio, a rich and
populous state with a large elec
toral vote, whereas Goldwater'i
political base is Arizona.
The modern Republican strate
gy that beat Taft was to keep
banging away at the Idea that
Taft could not win.
"Don't nominate a loser," chor
used the managers of other Re
publicans, the Dcwoys, the Stas
sens, the Willkics and the Eisen
howers. Notwithstanding that, bar
ring Ike, none of them could win
either. The strategy was to kill
off Taft on charges of no vote
appeal in the great eastern cities.
Argument Voiced
"Taft can't carry New York,"
the GOP liberal chorused. "Can't
carry Pennsylvania, New Jersey,
Connecticut. Can't win."
And, now what do we hear
about Goldwater? We hear from
Sen. Clifford P. Case, R-N.J. Case
is a liberal, or modem, Repub
lican. The New York Times re
liortcd lust week that Case had
endorsed for president Gov. Nel
son A. Rockefeller of New York.
Scarcely news.
Case accompanied that endorse
ment with a prediction that if
Goldwater were nominated, he
would be badly beaten in New
Jersey. Case said Goldwater also
would lose New York. .Massachu

and, probably Pennsylvania.
This is a replay of the argu
nient raised over the,' years
against Taft. There is no worth
while means of determining
whether a conservative Republi
can could or could not carry
these Eastern states. The Republi
cans have not nominated a con
servative since Alf M. Landon in
1036 or, more accurately, since
Calvin Coolidge in 1924.
Past History
Landon carried only Maine and
Vermont against FDR. Coolidge
swept the North and West includ
ing all of the big industrial, big
city states, lie had token opposi
tion from the Democratic ticket
headed by John W. Davis of West
Virginia. The fat cuts who help
support the Republican party are
afraid to take another chance on
a conservative.
The liberal or modern Republi
cans, firmly established in the
Northeast, Frighten the fat cats
witli warnings that a conservative
Republican cannot carry, for ex
ample, Now York.
Goldwater supporters seek to
counter those claims bv claims
of their own. They circulated lust
month among Republican stute
chairmen assembled here, a mim
eographed draft-Goldwalcr pamph
let, it reproduced a mathemati
cal calculation that aeainst Presi
dent Kennedy, Goldwater could be
elected next year with 311 elec
toral votes, 43 more than the min
imum. This calculation conceded
to Kennedy New York. Pennsyl
vania, New Jersey, all of New
Kngland, Michigan, California.

MONDAY, APRIL 29, 1963
Again
Roseburg was the center of one of the
most ridiculous situations anywhere dur
ing a few weeks of the summer of 1961.
Some businesses and industries went on
daylight saving time: others stayed on
standard time; and still others adopted
what they called "fast time" in which
they kept the clock on standard time but
went to work an hour earlier.
Needless to say, the confusion was cha-.
otic.
And needless to say, we stayed on
standard time the next year.
The adoption of daylight time by a
vote of the people last November may
be hard on cows at milking time and
equally hard on late risers, but one seg
ment of the economy will have reason to
be happy. Lumber manufacturers were
obviously having a hard time with the
differences in time. Both California and
Washington were on DST, which gave
them a jump on the eastern markets each
day. Then, to make things even more try
ing, the retention of standard time in Or
egon made the daily time in which the
eastern markets were reachable even
shorter. Under normal circumstances,
with changes in time zones, Roseburg's
working day starts three hours later than
New York's. New York is on daylight sav
ing time, so in the summer, its working
day started four hours before Roseburg's.
This meant business could be carried on
between Roseburg artd New York only
four hours a day.
Others will benefit, too, from being in
step with most of the rest of the nation
(28 states). But whatever our personal
feelings about daylight time, we'll all ben
efit from, being on the same time this
summer.
To Undermine
Appeal Noted
water doesn't need the big city
1 states to be elected. It is assumed
in tills calculation that Goldwuter
would sweep the South, the Hol
der states and most of the Mid
west. The Republican fut cats
probably would like to be per
suaded that all of this could come
true for Goldwater. But fat cats
are a timid lot, skittish and afraid
to take a chance.

PALAMOS, Spain Perhaps liv
ing in Spain for the past 10 years
has prejudiced me somewhat in
my admiration for the Spanish
character. But I did think that
Generalissimo Francisco Franco
comported himself admirably in
the affair of the Communist mur
derer and torturer, Julian Grimau
Garcia, whom the Spaniards exe
cuted last week for his ancient
sins.
Organized communism of the
world demonstrated against the
execution, although Grimau, for his
murders and tortures, was consid
erably more personally involved in
atrocity than was Adolf bich
mann, whom the Israelis tried and
killed as an engineer of destruc
tion. Grimau was a chief of the po
litical police during the Spanish
Revolution, a . ti his name as a
murderer and torturer of police
prisoners lias been infamous in
Spain. He went into exile when the
communistically approved Loyal
ists bugged out and stayed in
France until last November when
he came back admittedly, in his
brief trial to work for the Com
munist party once more, franco's
police arrested him last Nov. 8;
he was tried, and they shot him
April 21.
He was not murdered coldly, as
Khrushchev and his buddies rubbed
out their head copper, Lavrenli
Bcria. He was not assassinated on
order from central headquarters,
as was the exiled Trotsky in Mex
ico. He was tried and convicted
of his sins, and executed, just as
dc Gaulle had one of his OAS lead
ers destroyed the other week
just as America electrocuted the
Rosenbergs for the highest of treas
on. El Caudillo exercised consider
able class. 1 thought, in his tele
gram to Khrushchev, who had the
temerity to intercede with a plea
for clemency for Grimau, in pos

Proposed New State Document
Will Meet Crucial House Test
SALEM (UPI) A proposed ;
new constitution for Oregon is
about to meet its most crucial
test to date: Action by the Oregon
""use.
II is the farthest Oregon has!
come toward modernizing a basic
document thai was hurriedly !
drafted in one month 106 years j
ago two year before Oregon
became a state. :
Since 1857, the present constilu-'
lion has been amended 111 times.
Its length has grown to 21.982
words. Many of its provisions to
day are conilicting. ambiguous
and archaic. Others have stood
the test of time.
After the second World War, '
pressures grew to bring the docu-1
ment up to date to meet the 1
needs of a modern state and j
provide a framework for t h e I
future, not the past. I
The agitation for constitutional!
reform by individuals, groups and 1
political leaders led the legisla-I
ture in 1953 to authorize a study, i
In 19o5. the Study KrOUP reC- :
ommended a convention and of
fered a suggested draft. The 1955
Legislature rejected a convention,

ted, of which there arc overwhelm
ing proofs, and his continued sub
versive action up to the very mo
ment of his arrest, prevent the ex
ercise of grace especially since
numerous persons who remember
with horror his tortures and mur
ders, including the families of vic
tims, are still 'alive."
Such crimes against humanity
will, I am sure, be condemned by
the world's conscience, despite the
propaganda campaign organized
with the intent of misleading opin
ion. And organized they were, start-,
ing with Khrushchev and pressure
on Pope John at the top and dwin
dling to the smashing of a tourist
agency in Copenhagen which spe
cialized in tours to Spain. Mobs
fought outside the Spanish consul
ate in Zurich. Demonstrations were
touched off more or less simul
taneously in London, Helsinki, Mi
lan, Stockholm, Brussels,. Liege,
Mexico City and Rome.

Praised
Matter
The majority of the demonstra
tors, who battled in the streets,
smashed windows and destroyed
the office of Spain's unofficial rep
resentative in Mexico, were not
yet born when Grimau went over
the Pcrpignan hill to exile 25 years
ago, Grimau was not shot as a
political figure, as they shoot them
by the hundreds In Cuba and have
shot them by the hundreds of thou
sands in Mexico, which still main
tains diplomatic relations with the
old Communist government-in-exile
of Spain.
Grimau was executed as we ex
ecuted the German war ciminals
after the Nuremberg trials. He was
executed for being an archict of
murder and torture and as an im
plemcntcr of murder and torturc-
and, if I know the Spanish sense of
humor, quite possibly for being
stupid enough to think that time
heals and he could come home to
Madrid to take up his old work of
Communist subversion.
Barcelona, in Catalonia, is not
and never was wildly enthusiastic
about the Franco regime. Some of
the most bitter brothcr-against-brother
fighting in the Spanish war
took place in Catalonia. But on the
dav thev shot Grimau in Madrid I
happened to be in Barcelona, and
I heard nothing but applause for
Franco's action in expunging the
old murderer.
Spain is admittedly a totalitarian
ate just as France under
Ltate
Charles de Gaulle is a totalitarian
state, iust as Russia is a totalitar
ian state. It seems amusing really';
that the whole world would simul
taneously arise to protest against
the execution of an old policeman
that the whole world never heard
of, except in the Communist inter
national apparatus with its head in
Moscow and its tail in Mexico City.
i It seems presumptuous of the
j world not to allow Franco to kill
his own snakes, in his own coun
!. proved reasons. We are a
nation that electrocuted Caryl
Chessman on which was really a
presumption of guilt, and how
many millions died under Stalin is
past computing.
There is an old Jewish line con
cerning table manners which says:
"Eat first, Maxie, then talk." In
the instance of the execution of
i Juiian Grimau Garcia, it would
be a good idea if the world shut up.

From Washington:
The United States will send two
battle groups, one of Army in
fantry and one of paratroopers,
plus jet fighters, into communist
threatened Thailand next month,
the Defense Department has an
nounced. The Pentagon said these
troops will be accompanied by sup
porting aircraft and logistic ele
ments. Although planning for the move
has been under way for months,
the arrival of these forces will
serve as a show of strcnth at a
time when communists are threat
ening to take over neighboring
Laos.
What of this Laos business that
bas been in the headlines so long?
What is Laos?
And where is it?
It's a little country down in the
hot tropics of Southeast Asia. It's
about the size of Oregon area 91,
000 square miles, as compared witli
Oregon s 96,981 square miles. Its
population is about the size of Ore
gon's 1.850,000, according to the
U.N. estimate in 1961. At the 1960
census, Oregon's population was
1,757,691.
Laos is a part of the former
French Indo-China. It became a
French protectorate back in 1893,
when the French got delusions of
grandeur and started out to set up
world emnire. France lost it,
along with the rest of its South
east Asian protectorates, back in
the late 1940's, when the Chinese
communists drove the French out.
What of the people of Laos?
Well, they're an easy-going lot
who would like to sit in their
house by the side of the road and
let the world go by if the world
would just let them do it. One
gains the impression that they
don't care a hoot who governs
them if government will just leave
tnem alone to live in the easy
going way they want to live.
They regard this whole ruckus
over the fate of Laos as a fright
ful nuisance.
What of Thailand where we're
preparing to send in a very con
siderable military force designed
to serve as a show of strength to
get the word over to the commu
nists that they'd better stay out of
Laos?
Thailand is a different kettle of
fish. The Thais are a competent, ca
pable lot. They know what they're
about, they know what they want.
what they want more than any
thing else is to be LET ALONE to
do as they please in their capable,
charming way.
Thailand is quite a country.. Its
area is 200,148 square miles, as
compared with California's 158,693
square miles. Its population is 27.
181,000, as compared with Califor
nia's 17,000,000.
Its a big country, with a lot of
people.
What kind of people? ' 1

Von Braun: He Has Penchant
For Strolling Out On Limb
Dr. Wernher von Braun became
America's most famous space
scientist by his penchant for stroll
ing out on technological limbs
with a unique flair for, showman
ship. In 1955, he startled the nation's
scientific inner circle by suggest
ing he had the equipment to put
up the world's first earth satel
litea fight he. and in the long
run the United States, lost to
Some appalling blunders and bad
guesswork.
Today. Von Braun is still at it.
In an interview with United Press
International, he staunchly de
fended the nation's controversial
decision to spend $20 billion-plus
to send men to the moon this
decade:
"Even should we find out the
moon is soft and is made of green
cheese, it will have been north
every cent of it."
Typical Defiance
This is typical Von Braun de
fiance, in stark contrast to the
watery half-answers and excuses
that seem to be the party line
among numerous lesser scientific
lights in the United States over
the same issue.
He knows there will be one
tremendous by - product "a very
fine and potent space transporta
tion system." the Saturn-5 super
rocket that will send the three-man
Apollo teams to the moon. Von
Braun is certain because he him
self heads the program for build
ing the Satum-5.
This is the "self-confidence of a
Teutonic demi-god" that a writer
once attributed to the stocky,
blond German.
If Von Braun is one of the few
who violate scientific tradition
by speaking his piece in public,
he is one of tlie fewer still who
can back up his -Jlk with a long
list of solid scientific accomplishments.
