-".pleased that the State Board of Higher Educa-.,
- tion has an early and' apparently very , satis
nn, tying decision as to the presidency of the
, university. At iti meeting due to start today ,
the board is expected to announce the choice
f rf r Mr-oHith Wilsnn fnrmprlv of Utah
4 and now an executive with the Ford Poun- .
da tion Fund for the Advancement of Edu
cation, a position he has held the last two
years. His academic preparation is extensive
' covering universities here and abroad. While
1 his teaching experience is more restricted .
jevidenfly it has been of a quality to draw to
him offers of promotion, for, he has moved
up the ladder steadily. .
Jr.-f He will succeed Dr. Harry K. Newburn
who has resigned to head the Ford Founda-
tion's division on educational radio and tele-
vision thus Oregon and Ford Foundation
-: are making a swap. For Dr. Wilson to leave
Vhat is considered the rather cushy job of
- running a private foundation agency to take
"fover the taxing duties of university admin
sistration shows he must have a zest for the
campus, its faculty, students, alumni and
problems. Now aged 44 he comes in , the
" strength of maturity and yet with an expect-
ancy of many years of service. This prospect
T; of long service should be inviting both to
7 him and to the university whose presidents,
f or one cause and another, have since the
.' tenure of ; Pres. Prince, Campbell, been of
V- rather brief duration. ,
Langlie on. Hells Canyon
- It is rather difficult to understand why
Governor Langlie of Washington state is so
.hostile to a federal high dam in Hells 'Canyon.
He has signed a petition to the FPC asking
that his state be admitted as an intervener,
in the pending hearing on Idaho Power's ap
plication for licenses for three low dams. The
petition asserted Washington has a "major
and vital interest" in the issue because it con
sumes approximately 75 per cent of the elee?
trie energy of the Northwest Power Pool; also "
tha,t the state suffers irreparable damages
from floods in the Columbia.
' On the basis of these , assertions Langlie
ought to be backing the federal high dam.
For Idaho Power wants the energy from its
development to serve its own customers, pres
ent and future. They are all in Idaho and the
Snake River section of Oregon. It is willing
to dispose of its surplus to the Power Pool
, but anticipates within ten years or so it will
need all the energy the dams produce for its
own area. Washington surely would get a big
ger slice of power from a federal project, par
ticularly since its reserved flow would in
crease generation at downstream, dams which
are anchored on the Washington shore.
, As far as flood contror is concerned the
storage capacity, of the single high dam is
considerably in excess of those in the IP pro
gram. So if Langlie is worried about floods
downstream he ought to be boosting the high
dam. . ' ' . .'.' -
The petition also asserts that the federal
. project would be a "flagrant dissipation' of
funds from' the treasury. Washington state
ought to stick to this and endeavor to prove
it if admitted to the hearing. Otherwise it
will be drowned in the backwater from the
; other arguments.
At this juncture The Statesman is waiting
t the evidence to come in and trying to
puncture the phony arguments which crop up
from'time to time on one side or .the other.

Abuse of Immunity
ITThere's No Quitting Time
President Eisenhower's off-duty relaxa-'
tions are essential " to the make-up of the
man, vital to his mental and physical health,
and we have no truck with criticism re
garding his golf, fishing, painting and other
hobbies such as. bridge and cooking. j
The President always has been vigorously
active, spending- a' great deal of time out
. doors. He could not be expected to maintain
his health if he suddenly 'strapped himself
to a desk every hour of the day. Nor can any
man maintain a balanced perspective with
unceasing concentration on the great prob
lems at hand. A change of pace is a necessity,
and President Eisenhower appears to have
the knack of making such changes reinvig
orating and stimulating. . .
Persons in any executive capacity cannot
I escape their obligations and responsibilities
at "quitting time" because there is no quit
ting time for them. If they give themselves
nothing else to think about, their problems
are constantly with them. Only sleep or a
definite outside interest gives them escape.
Abraham Lincoln found relief in humor,
some of which shocked his callers for its
coarseness. Franklin D. Roosevelt liked to
fish, to swim" and to pore'over his stamp col
lection. Harry Truman was not the athletic
type but he liked to get up' early for brisk
morning walks. Eisenhower should be allowed
the periodic relaxation which he finds fresh
ens his jaded nerves. v ,
If Delaware's Sen. Williams is correct in
saying 25,000 federal employes are evading
income taxes,' there is . certainly something
that can and should be done about it.
Federal law precludes the attachment of
government workers' salaries, but there are
plenty of other means employed to collect
from individuals on private, payrolls and they,
should be used in full measure to collect from
those oh the public payroll, too. ." "
Many a . person has , found himself sub
poenaed to hearing after hearing when , he
failed to" pungle up. He has found his bank
account frozen; his credit rating , suddenly
dropped; bureau of internal revenue men
prying into every corner of his financial
status and dealings. .
There is no reason 25,000 federal employes
should be immune. Whenever possible, in
flagrant eases of hiding behind attachment
immunity, it seems entirely feasible that tax
evaders should find:. their jobs numbered
among - expendable ' items in departmental
budgets.

Remember w,hen "Mrs. Roosevelt visited
New Zealand and rubbed noses with the
Maori to conform with their traditional style
of greeting? That drew the usual chorus of
hoots at Eleanor. But did you notice the pic
ture of Vice President Nixon conforming to
-the same Maori custom when he and Mrs.
Nixon stopped in New Zealand? Mrs. Roose
velt did; but instead of chiding the Veep she
wrote in her column that she was glad to
see that Nixon succumbed as she did to Maori
tradition. It is not the rubbing of noses but
the touching of foreheads, she explains, the
idea being that two intellects draw people
closer together. Nixon's luck held nobody
hooted at his nose-rubbing.
Perhaps those interested in longevity should
keep out of Douglas County. The Roseburg
News-Review runs up on its adding machine
74 deaths by violence this year, which has
two months left to go. Of these, 26 were in
traffic accidents (1952 score' 40), 11 from
Jogging accidents; eight drownings, four
shootings; four in an airplane crash, four
children's suffocation,; three in fires, four sui
cides and five miscellaneous.! The .placid
scene in once bucolic Douglas County cer
tainly has changed in recent years.
While the politicians are worrying over the
state of the farmer (his political state, that
is) the farmers themselves are busy winding
up the year's work harvesting late crops,
plowing and cultivating and seeding the
.ground for next year's crop,. laying by the
winter feed for livestock, getting their ma
chinery housed against winter storms. The
business of farming goes forward regardless
of debates, for here Nature is the final com
mander and its seasonal dictate must be respected.

It is a tremendous undertaking
calling for sacrifice of time and
energy and one that is made
only out of a sense of devotion

to be required to prolong their
efforts beyond October. In this
week there should be such: a

these agencies may be free to go
forward for another year of
work , without facing the nec
essity of curtailing services

Nixon Says
Southeast Asia
Along with, tultry nights and
equatorial .beauties, the roman
tic tropics had long been held to
be " the sole home, of amebic
dysentery. However, amebic in
fections have been found all
"over the world.
.r it is believed that over thir
teen million people in the
United States alone are carriers
of amebic infection. That does
not mean that these persons
have symptoms, but they do
harbor the infection within the
large intestine, .
Persons planning a trip, to
tropical countries should be
very cautious of amebie infec
tion, because the disease is very
prevalent there. In a recent
study, over, forty-seven per cent
of the children in Mexican
schools were found to have
amebic infections.
' Amebic dysentery is caused
by a one-celled parasite. These
parasites form cysts. The cysts

Plan for Troop
Tide Turning'
SINGAPORE Vice Presi
dent Richard Nixon told newsmen
after a talk Monday with Malcolm
MacDonald. British commissioner
general for southeast Asia, that
he was ' now "more ,optimistic
about the future in the whole gen
eral area of Southeast Asia."
! Nixon added: "The low point
has been reached and the tide is
turning in Southeast Asia."
.The' two men conferred for three
hours at a private luncheon. They
covered the full range of political
questions in this part of the world
with some discussion of Malaya's
basic problem of selling tin 'and
rubber to the. United States. Nixon
will get stronger representations
on these trade problems later
Monday when he visits Kuala
Lumpur.
Newspapers Monday reported
nine terrorists were shot in the
section of Kuala Lumpur where
Adlai Stevenson was fired on dur
ing his recent trip. The newspa
pers also reported rubber and tin
officials hope to present their
problems to Nixon but. said they
are pessimistic about the results.
, It is understood MacDonald told
Nixon the situation has improved
recently throughout Southeast Asia
except for Indonesia which he de
scribed as critical.
Sunday, Nixon said the United
.States wants to make it clear that
Korean-style - Communist aggres
sion against Southeast Asia "could
have grave consequences."
Withdrawal
. By ALEX SINGLETON
BELGRADE. Yugoslavia Ufl
Yugoslavia denounced as "hypo
critical ' Sunday night an Italian
proposal for mutual withdrawal of
troops from the tense Italian-Yu
goslav border and indicated Pres
ident Tito's government will reject
the Idea. , v
The border, about 75 miles long,
extends from disputed Trieste on
the south to the Alps on the north.
Although much of the border is
mountainous, there have been re
ports of .heavy troop concentra
tions at various points on both
sides, since the Italian-Yugoslav
dispute over which shall get stra
tegic Trieste reached a new peak
ot tension in recent weeks.
Belgrade Radio, quoting the offi
cial Tanhig news agency, repeated
Italy's disclosure of Saturday that
Rome had informed Washington,
London and Paris the Italian
troops would be recalled from the
frontier if Yugoslavia would follow
suit. - .
Massing Troops -
The broadcast said Italy had
started massing troops on the fron
tier in August "without any Yugo
slav provocation and that for the
following month and a half, Yugo
slavia did ; not make any similar
move. :
"But." it added, "when on Oct.
S the decision to give Italy (the
British American occupied) Zone
A of Trieste was announced, the
Yugoslav government termed this
an act of aggression and was
forced to undertake measures' to
protect its interests.'
Announcement Modified -
(This somewhat modified the or
iginal Yugoslav announcement aft
er the Allied decision to evacuate
Zone A, when the Belgrade gov
ernment said any entry of Italian
troops into the zone would be con
sidered an act of aggression.)
The radio quoted a Yugoslav for
eign office spokesman as saying
the new Italian proposal is "a hy
pocritical one." It added that the
Yugoslav counter-action came only
after the situation' had changed
and "Yugoslav interests were jeo-J
pardized.
While the foreign office and government-controlled
news organs
were pouring cold water on the
Italian border proposal, vice 'Pres
ident Alexander Rankovic, one of
Tito's four top aids, served notice
that Yugoslavia will not tolerate
Italy's entrance into Trieste
"through the back door."

t TYPE WILL TELL A STORY
By MAX HARRELSON . i
UNITED NATIONS. N. Y. W
After months of idleness, the U. N.
Security Council finds itself in the
midst of two major problems
Trisste and Palestine.
It looks almost as if the 11
nation council miht be regaining
the eminent position it once held
as the U. N.'s major agency for
settling international disputes.
This, however, is not the case.
U.N. Diplomats are generally
agreed that the council is now
overshadowed by the' 60-nation
General - Assembly and will re
main so as long as the Russians
continue to tie the council in knots
with the veto.
" Most countries started taking
their disputes to the veto-free As
sembly several years ago after it
became increasingly difficult to
get action in the counciL
. - -
There are special reasons why
the Trieste and "Palestine prob
lems were taken to the council
rather than the Assembly.
'"The Trieste question - was
brought before the council by Rus
sia because the 1947 Italian Peace
Treaty provides that this body ap
point a governor of the free terri
tory and guarantee its independ
ence. The Trieste issue had been
dormant ever since -the last at
tempt in 1943 to appoint a gov
ernor failed.
. .
The Palestine problem has been
gealt with both by the Assembly
inc by the council during the long
and stormy controversy. It is now
More the council, rather than the
Assembly, for two reasons:
, . The truce supervision organi
zation, headed by Danish Ma. Gen.
Vagn Bennike, was created by the
council and is directly responsible
to it. V
2. The Palestine problem is one
of the few major issues which
have never .experienced a Soviet
veto.
i- a
The Trieste question, at the mo
ment, has been sidetracked until
Nov. 2 to give the Western powers
a chance to try to negotiate a
settlement of the current crisis.
If that happens, the council un
doubtedly will quickly brush aside
Russia's attempt to revive the
treaty provisions.
The Palestine debate may keep
the council busy for weeks.
The present flurry of activity
points up sharply the inactivity
of the council during recent
months. This inactivity, in turn,
is in sharp contrast with the early
days of the counciL ,
The most recent meeting of the
council was the 623th since the
first meeting in London early in
1946. During the first six months
of 1933, however, the council held
no public meetings., . ,
It met privately six times on
the selection of 'a new secretary
general to succeed Trygve Lie and
finally agreed on ' Dag Hammar
skjold. The only other meetings
were devoted toMrafting the coun
cil's annual report to the Assem
bly. .
The prestige of the council
started dropping' as far back as
1948 when it became apparent that
the .Russians were going to use 1
the veto freely to block all sorts
of . decisions, instead of reserving
it for major questions involving
war or peace.. - '-.
The real collapse . of the coun
cil's prestige, however, came in
1950 after .the start of the Korean
conflict. '
Russia was boycotting the coun
cil when it took its decision to
use force against the Communist
invaders of South Korea, but re
turned a short time later to' block
all further action. The Korean is
sue then was quickly transferred
to the Assembly, where it has re
mained ever since.
This led to the Ache son plan,
which Dean Acheson, then the U.
SV secretary of state, submitted
in ' the fall of 1330 to give the
Assembly more flexibility in deal
ing with sudden disputes. Ope pro-,
vision of the - plan, as approved,
made it possible for the Assem
bly to be called into emergency
session within 24 hours.
There is a lot of talk now about
revision of the U. N. charter to
eliminate or restrict the use of
the veto in the council, but there
in the present charter can be
is little , real belief that this can
ever be-done because no change
made without the consent of the
five big powers.
Russia has made it clear she.
will not ' consent to any restric
tions on the veto.
The council, therefore, appears
destined for a declining role in
the U. N. while the Assembly be
comes more and more dominant

giving off numerous amebae.
Many persons just have cysts
and- are known as "carriers'' of
the amebic infection. Those per
sons who have symptoms of diar
rhea, blood in the bowel move
ments, cramps and excessive gas
usually have the active form of
the disease. ,V
A diagnosis of amebic dysen
tery is made by examining the
stools underneath a miscroscope
to determine whether a cyst or
the active amebae are present
Examination of the large intes

tion with an instrument known
as a proctoscope, usually reveals
many small intestinal ulcers.
. .
Recently, in the search tor
new . antibiotics, one known as
fumagillin was discovered from
a type of mold.' Its main action
has been -found to be against
amebae as well as other para
sites, such as worms.
This drug was used on sixty
four patients having amebic in
fections. Of this group, forty
were completely cured. There
were. very few side effects with
the use of this drug, and it
would seem that a high rate of
cure is promised for those suf

Answer: Although the reason

pregnancy. . -
