T" ri'i me on a ( Pane EiUUUI & I'M IK I 3y Charles V. Stanton Patience, My Son 4 Tht Newt-Review, Roieburg, Ore. D'Ann Roseburg has many tilings to be proud of, but today it's proudest posses sion is a sweet and lovely brunette named D'Ann Fullerton. With a big boost from the Roseburg Junior Chamber of Commerce, she last week entered a hectic world where beau ty, poise and talent were everywhere. Jaded judges who had seen beauty as part of their everyday business coolly judged beauty and talents of 22 of the loveliest girls in the slate. The crowd liked D'Ann, but the judges were de tached. Miss Fullerton's chances seemed slim as the final night drew near. In the first place, she was considerably shorter than ' most Miss Oregon winners. Secondly, " she was in competition with a girl, Jodie Ray, who had claimed a crown in a con test in Roseburg last August. In that Miss Oregon-Miss Universe contest at the Douglas County Fair, D'Ann had been runner-up. But the judges weren't swayed by these points either. While Jodie Ray, the Portland repre sentative, was winning the preliminary tests, D'Ann was making her best show ings in the daily interviews with the judges. Then, she clinched it by her im promptu answers to unrehearsed ques tions in the finals in front of the crowd of 1.500. For Miss Fullerton, it was the great est personnel triumph of her young life. But it isn't an honor she will keep alone. THE LIGHTER SIDE: w By DICK WEST WASHINGTON (UPI) - Some clock watcher at the U.S. Cham ber ot Commerce did a little fig uring the other day and came up with a timely calculation. He ascertained that precisely al 7:12 p.m. on July 1 the 1963 calendar year will be 52 per cent over, ruuinx n anouier ,wy. only 48 per cent of (lie year will By a stunning- coincidence, 52 per cent also happens to be the j ax rale on corporation income. Therefore, Edwin I'. Ncilan, president of the chamber, has proposed that July 9 be designat ed as "Deliverance Day." At that time, statistically at least, "tin federal government moves out of the top taxpaying corporations and turns them back to the owners for the rest of the year," the chamber noted. Urge. Calibration , Neilan recommended that "De liverance Day" be suitably cele brated by the nation's business men, hut he neglected to suggest ways that this might be done. - This being the outdoor season, 1 should think that a cook-out would be appropriate. Perhaps business leaders could gel to gether and barbecue Mortimer Caplin, the revenue commission cr. Or they could run Chairman Wilbur Mills of the House Ways and Means Committee up a flag pole and tiro a 21-gun salute. Itegardlrss nf what mode of celebration Is chosen, it seems to me that "Deliverance Day," if It is to become a tradition, calls for an exchange of Rifts among those emancipated. Suggest.

Byrd, D-Va., re minds his fellow citizens that thev have much more than merely the big 1063 Treasury deficit to worry aoout. 'more is a surplus of def icit all around. Byrd discussed these deficits In a Law Day speech at the liniver-sity-of Virginia. First, Byrd cited the United Nations deficit which amounted on Dec. 31, 1062 to a dues arrearage of more than $121 million. Second is the NATO deficit. Of the 15 NATO nations, Byrd named only Canada and the United States as having met the prescribed goals in quantity and quality or troops provided. The third deficit is in tho balance of paymonts between the United States and all other nations with which the United States engages in foreign trade. "We spent 32.2 billion more in foreign countries in calendar year 1912 than we took in from trans actions abroad," Byrd said. "Our money went out in foreign lid, maintenance of troops around ' h. i -I iic , the world, migration ot U.S. bus ness, tourist expenditures, pur chases of imports, etc. We have ran deficits in these accounts (or 12 of the past 13 years. This has resulted in the loss of Iwo-thirds of our gold, tiold barks the dol lar." Feurrh Deficit Noted The fourth deficit, of course, is the Treasury figure for govern ment operations in fiscal year 1963. Fiscal '6:1 ended June 30th. Ihe precise deficit may not be Im- meaiateiy Known out it is expectea to range from $6 lo $s billion.

Also basking in her reflected glory is the Roseburg Junior Chamber of Com merce, which sponsored the Miss Rose burg Pageant and pulled all stops to make her the brightest light at the Miss Oregon Pageant. The Jaycees deserve all the credit they get for their part in the triumph. They took over the Miss Roseburg Pag eant and brought it to sparkling life aft er it had died at least twice in the last 17 years. Then, recognizing the need for fanfare and rigid training for their can didate, they worked tirelessly to provide it for the Miss Oregon Pageant. With their efforts, and tlm natural charm, beauty and talent of the candi date, they rocketed the name of D'Ann Fullerton and Roseburg into the head lines. And it's a fame which won't die soon. Both Roseburg and D'Ann will be reg ularly in the state's news, at least until September when she and her parents fly back to Atlantic City, N.J., for the most famed of all beauty contests. Then the girl and her town will become of na tional note as one of the more than 50 beauties in the pageant. Whether she wins there or not, her presence as a reigning beauty of the na tion will be demanded regularly through the next year. Roseburg can justly be proud to have such a lovely and charming girl carry ing its banner to such giddy heights. New Zanzibar Sultan Named ZANZIBAR (UPI)-Scyyid Jam- shid Bin Abdulla was proclaimed Sultan of Zanzibar today by Brit ish resident Sir OcorKo Mooring. The new sultan, 33. was pre sented in the palace throne room and later appeared on the bal cony to wave lo thousands as a shore battery fired a 21-g u n salute. The same crowd saw the body of his father the late Sultan Sey- yid Sur Abdulla Bin Khalifa, who died at the age of S3, taken from the palace to a nearby mosque. After a funeral service t lie body was carried to a private cere mony whore the two younger sons nf lha rlAorl otiltBti lnwni'ftrl liim 'into a grave. tion with a balanced budget as an outmoded conformity with a puritan ethic. Byrd's response to such reasoning is a shocked re assertion of the old time econom ic religion. "We are surrounded," he said, "by deficits. And with them wa have debt and Inflation; we have balance nf payments trouble; we have dwindling gold reserves. "Gold backs our money and some $12 billion in gold is re quired for that purpose. We had more than $24 billion in gold in 1949. Now we have less than S16 billion. We are within $4 billion of the amounted required to hack the dollar, and the gold still is going out. "I regard this as our most se rious fiscal and monetary prob lem.

Before that he was too busy - In The Day's News- By FRANK In an editorial page piece the other day, the Eugene Register- Guai'd found occasion to comment on the tendency of EDUCATED people to string it out too long when they write letters especially j letters for publication. In its piece, it offered this com ment: I "Unfortunately, the educated man has two strikes against him. j Too often, he knows so much about a subject that he can't write about it in fewer than a few thousand I words. I "Letters (intended for publica tion) that arc most often returned (by editors) because of length are letters of well educated people who just couldn't slop writing. These writers just do not realize that a short letter that makes its point quickly is many times as effective as a long, involved letter mat goes unread. "When a reader puts aside a long article 'to read when 1 have lime' he has moved that article one step nearer the garbage can."

Mysterious Argentine making money, first through a chain ot men's shops and, later, in the textile business. It was while trying his hand as editor of the news magazine Que, closed under Pcron in 1946 and re opened in 1956, that Frigerio be gan plugging Frondizi for presi dent, a labor which occupied his attention all through 1957. According to a story denied by Frondizi but claimed by Pcron to be true, it was in 1957 that Frigerio went to Caracas, Vene zuela, and signed a pact with a Pcron representative guaranteeing the Pcronista votes that led to Frondizi's election. At any rate. Frigerio became Frondizi's all-powerful social and economic czar after Frondizi's landslide victory in 1958. Involved With Cuba He is the figure credited with being in back of Frondizi's re- JENKINS Voltaire, who is listed by most of the critics as one of the literary GREATS of all time, put the im portance of brevity and clarity about as well as it has ever been put when he said in a letter to a friend : ' "I hope you will pardon this long letter. I am verv busv today and I HAVEN'T TIME to write a short one." It takes time to write so briefly and so clearly that NO ONE can fail to grasp the meaning of what has been written. Another of the great practition ers of brevity. and clarity was Ab. raham Lincoln. His Gettysburg ad dress has been called the only great prose poem of classical per fection in modern English. Yet it contains only 267 words in ten sen tences. But Lincoln chose those 267 sim- ' pie. noble words with such care ; that NO ONE, even to this day. a ! century after they were spoken. 1 can fail to be thrilled and inspired 1 by them. There is a strange tradition that Lincoln wrote his Gettysburg ad dress on the bark of an envelope on his way by train to the Gettysburg battlefield. Nothing could be farther from Ihe truth. He made K1VK hand written drafts of it. It was the sec ond of the five that he finally chose as the one that most clearly expressed his deep feeling. Battlefield, consecrated and gov ernment are three of the longest words he used. But these were es sential to the thought he wanted to convey. If you will re-read his immortal Address, you must come to the conclusion that not a single word could have been left out with out clouding his meaning. In Hamlet (Act I, Scene 111 Wil liam Shakespeare, one nf the Great Masters of Ihe Knglish language, causes Polonius to say to Ihe queen : 1 "Therefore, since brevity Is the soul of wit, "And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes.

Figure Force luctance to break with Cuba. He also is credited with being the man responsible for the ous ter of Roy Rubotlom, U. S. am bassador to Argentina and form er assistant secretary of state for Latin American affairs. But he also is the man credited with Frondizi's appeal to Fidel Castro to break off with Russia, and with the decision to invite for 'eign investment and aid in the development of Argentina s oil in dustry. He is. to say the least, con troversial. . Within recent months he has conferred with Peron in the lat tcr's Spanish exile. As an individual, Frigerio is big business and speaks for big busi ness hut Argentine big busi ness. He likes President Kennedy but dislikes Wall Street. Regroup Tht Masse. His objective is to bring three million isolated followers of Peron hack into the country's political life in a union with the middle class followers of Frondizi. The purpose, he said, is to give the masses greater benefits and to spur the nation's economic benefits. . The United States has endorsed the popular front idea and hopes the Argentine military will per mit truly free elections next month Such would seem to assure a vic tory for the combined Frondizi I Pcronista forces. At the moment, as Argentina anus ana us economy uisnue grates, military decrees - forbid either a Pcronista candidate for president or a candidate openly supported by Peronistas. And whether Argentina would benefit by the return of the U.S. hating Peron or his policies is at best extremely "iffy." Reader Opinions Writtr Offri Solution To Schoool Prayer lisut To The Editor: About the Supreme Court deci sion regarding prayer in public schools, prayer to me is a personal thing and 1 agree with the court that no one should he compelled to pray by law or edict. It seems to me there is a very easy and simple way to have the Lord's Prayer in each school room without law or compulsion. Kach classroom has a black board. On this blackboard the Lord's Prayer could be written, not through compulsion but with the consent of the Principal of each school. To this, I am sure, there would be no objection. Joseph B.

We join in extending our most sin cere congratulations and our hops that she may win the top honors for which she will be competing. Miss Fullerton is the second Douglas County girl to be selected as Oregon's finest. The honor of representing Oregon was won several years ago by JoAnn Amorde, then a resident of Sutherlin, now Mrs. Reedy Berg of Medford. Her parents, Archie and Jennie Amorde, presently live in Roseburg. But the fact that Douglas County girls are at or near the top in beauty contests is no surprise to the old-timers.

But in the day of the drummer Roseburg and its neighboring town of Oakland, then a busy munici pality, were two of the spots most favored by the men who regularly visited their customers in this area Oakland because of its excep- tionally fine food and Roseburg be cause of its exceptionally beautiful women. The early day drummer had a lour gorgeous D'Ann is just repeat rather hard existence. ins local history. Our hotels lacked the more mod- i ern heating facilities. Rooms were often cold and barren. The man compelled to write up his day's or ders and reports while seated in a cold, drafty hotel room entertained thoughts of suicide. More often he carried his night's work to the comfort of a nearby saloon and sat at a card table until chased out by the penny-ante poker crowd. He had no night club, no motion picture theater, no radio, no tele vision, with which to wile away the lonesome hours. He couldn't af ford to get drunk every night. Nei ther his pockctbook nor his health would stand that. Yet, about the only place he could find warmth and entertainment was in the near- 'by saloon; bat or 'Standing on I the Corner Watching All the Girls Go By," as the lately popular song title puts it. And that's where Roseburg came Oakland was particularly well known for its fine food. One of Hie popular stopping spots was the Deardorff Hotel, run by W. L. (Billy) Deardorff. with the at.
