" ' Member Associated Preu The Associated Praaa It an titled exclusively, to the nsa x for republication of all local ntwa printed u ; . this newspaper. - s Junior First Gtiien Selection of Mark Hatfield as Junior First Citizen of Salem would seem a happy one. Seldom have men of his age achieved the stature and position which have been his. As - state representative and state senator, as dean of students at Willamette University, as an active 'worker in many civic enter prises,' Hatfield has contributed markedly to the well-being of his city and state. Mark, Hatfield has' crowded many activities into a short span, including nearly three years in the Navy during World War II, and in all of them he has shown the initiative, enter- prise and considered judgment to warrant the honor now conferred on him. ' j ' -' 'Leaving Babies in Cars - City police in Lebanon are" getting aggra vated at parents who leave babies in parked cars and they mean to do something about it. Power to them. The practice is a dan gerous one, and seldom necessary. In the Lebanon case, action toward a city ordinance on this matter was prompted by discovery of four children crying in a parked car on a downtown street at night while their parents were in a nearby tavern. I Per haps there are existing ordinances which . would cover such cases child neglect, child abandonment, cruelty, etc. If there aren't such, one certainly is in order. I The problem is not confined to Lebanon,' of course. And it doesn't always have to do with ohysical safety, either although we know that time and time again "run-away" cars got that way because neglected children have had nothing else to do but tamper with the emergency brakes. The leaving of; chil dren in cars, usually locked to "protect" the child, certainly would have no places in a list of "dos" in child psychology. It is saddening to hear a tot crying un attended in a car saddening because so many times it bespeaks of the type of family training the child will or will not, receive all the rest of his childhood. Consistency, and Coexistence ; Now that most of us have accepted as futile the once-prevalent idea that we could "unleash" Chiang KAi-sheJc to 11 Derate (jnina, it becomes somewhat difficult to see con sistency in a policy that finds us publicly announcing our hands-off on Tachen Islands and at the same time calling for a cease-fire J XI - - '. A wml .1. i-ih4t in we xormu5 aucuu ue wc.euuautuuug a war-deterring iron hand for the kid glove? The U.S. is still hoping the current hotting up of the seemingly endless Chinese civil war is merely a probing action by the Reds, not the prelude to an all-out Red attack on Formosa. The American 7th Fleet has orders to protect only Chiang's island, a commit ment made to warn off the Reds. It is a commitment which does not involve the United Nations; should the Reds decide to call our bet the U.S. would have to take , unilateral action. This, obviously, we wish to avoid; thus the proposals that the United Nations attempt to negotiate a cease fire be tween Chiang and the Reds. But in the light of all circumstances, it seems rather a futile hope. It is true that the Chinese Communists and their satellites have agreed to two armistices in the past one in Korea when ! they were exhausted and in a stalemate, and the other in Indo china when the Red armies had conquered all they could devour and needed time to consolidate their gains, i , But in the- case of the attacks against Formosa and its smaller island bases, the l Communists are neither exhausted nor over extended. The offensive has been long and carefully planned by. Peiping. We could expect, even without announcing our own hands-off, to see a continued -attempt to cap ture, step by step, the outlying islands from the nationalists. 1 Now it would seem assured. ' It appears that this week's seemingly in consistent announcements' might be one more sign that the United States is prepared now to go a ways further, to meet Russia in that shaaowy booby-trapped . minefield called Peaceful Coexistence, which many cool heads, including President Eisenhower, see (with the appalling brightness' of hydrogen-bomb fireballs to light up the future) as the only alternative to war. j In the American public mind, coexistence is not an attractive' word, being synonymous with appeasement. ! i i But that is what seems to be in store. It amounts somewhat to the same much criti cized policy that Nehru pursues in India; he is very harsh with the domestic Com munists and warily diplomatic in his dealings mmx, with the Red neighbors. Americans may continue to jail U.S. .Reds and build atomic submarines while at the same time dealing with Communist Russia. But what of China! One precedent has been set in our relations with Communist Yugoslavia. Of course, the administration could accept the futility of any other course and the practical necessity . of what might be termed Realpolitick if Russian Communism doesn't make such a course completely impossible. But it would be a tortuous choice. ; .',r'4 ; (I ' fi -A ,1 - Two Alarms M Firemen Salem firemen answered two arms within 10 minutes Thurs day night for minor fires, neither of which resulted in property damage. .

Health. education PUT AWAY THE PISTOLS The challenge of President Somoza to Presi dent Figueres of Costa Ricasto meet him at the border "with revolvers" to settle their animosi ties toward each other has more than a touch of the eighteenth rather than the twentieth century about it ! 1 Superficially one might construe -it as going further back than that to a period when rulers of states considered the inhabitants as personal subjects and then dealings with the other states as personal affairs, j : But Senor Somoza is more sophisticated than that - He regards his suggestion as an effort to limit hostilities rather than embroil the peoples of the two countries. The genial but ruthless dictator of Nicaragua blames the democratically minded President of Costa Rica for a plot against his regime last year. Senor Figueres remembers Somoza's en couragement of the Calderonistas who tried to invalidate his party's victory at the polls in 1948. But the contest is inevitably more than a personal feud. It is between two conceptions of government- Nicaragua under Somoza is run, according to one description, "like a feudal fief." The Figueres government in Costa Rica holds free elections and aims to expand social services. The conflict here will not be decided by two men with revolvers but by numbers of citizens with ideas.

Retains Nonintervention By rTILLIAM L. RYAN AP Foreign News Analyst So long as Peiping interprets United States policy as meaning nonintervention for defense of any thing but the Pescadores and For mosa itself, it can proceed to pre sent its horns front with victory after victory. Island after island can be "lib erated." The promise that Formo sa will be conquered for Bed China gains substance. The Red Chinese need not for a long time to .come. give any indication that they in tend to stop short of the Pesca dores and Formosa out of respect for the U. S. 7th Fleet Such a string of victories and "liberations would be important to Bed Chinese internal propagan da. It can offer conquests of the islands and defiance of the United States in exchange for public belt- tightening so that Piping's armies can become more and more mighty. - The conquests are important for Peipine's external propaganda. too. Peipings claim to be the dom inant power in Asia is buttressed. So is the claim to recognition the rightful representative of the Chinese people in the United Nations. With Peiping still outside the U. N that organization can do little but appeal to the Red Chi nese not to risk plunging- Asia ana possibly the world into a major war. If the Pernine decision to invade Yikiangshan was in the nature, of a tact, to determine what Western reaction might be, the Red Chi nese now have their answer: The United States will not de- tend the outlying-islands. The reaction in Britain and else where in the aon-Conimunist world was tinged with fear that 'the is land fighting might lead to some thing tar more grave. fresiaent xasennowers sugges tion that the U. N. step in to pre serve peace in the orient seemed to have been received with a sigh , oi reuet. au uus bespoke the ex treme reluctance of the Western powers to become involved in the snootog. But all this also save the green light to Peiping. There seems noth ing in the way of the Chinese Red army now if it wants to launch a long campaign of island-hopping until all but the Pescadores and Formosa are in Communist hands. The threat to Formosa will re main as Peiping's biggest bludgeon in its intercourse with the Western world. I Peiping appears to have gam bled and won at this point. The official U. S. position on the in- vasion could hardly be described as strong. And although Peiping. too, may be in deadly fear of a major war, its position will not be made any the less strong if the Western world must live with the fateful question: Will the Red Chinese, ' successful in one gamble, try it again for bigger stakes? Your Health I By Or. Herman N. Btrndesea, MJ. THREE STRAINS OF VIRUS INVOLVED IN, INFLUENZA Like the common cold, influ enza itself is seldom, if ever, fatal But the Influenza virus can do a lot more than merely make you uncomfortable and maybe miss a couple of days work. The virus there being at least three strains, A, A Prime and B can make you susceptible to serious influenza by damaging the cilia in your nose and throat The cilia are tiny hairs lining the upper air passages. They trap the germs you breath into your bodies. An infection gains a foot hold in your lungs when this fil tering process is damaged. I think you can readily see that the flu can easily lead to pneu monia if you dont take the prop er precautions. Many times you have probably mistaken a bad cold for influenza. I doubt that any disease is mis (fiagonsed so frequently as influ enza, i ; The symptoms are slightly more severe with the A virus than with.the B. The kind of infection present, however, cannot be de termined by the symptoms alone. The disease usually starts with chills. You might have a fever, lose your appetite and feel sick to your stomach.' You might vomit; Youll probably feel tired and have severe, sharp headaches. Your muscles are apt to ache, your face will be flushed and maybe youll be constipated. ' Barely will your temperature be above 100 degrees. Your fever win be the highest ea the first day. After that, your temperature should subside. : Symptoms like those of a cold may also be present Youll prob ably sneeze frequently and have a harsh, dry, metallic cough. There will be little sputum, how ever. Your nostrils probably will oe congested. The beginning of all these symptoms is almost always very sudden. Luckily, if there is no secondary infection, influenza at tacks only last about a week. While we doctors have no spe cific cure for influenza, you should call your physician as soon as you are stricken, so that he can keep a watchful eye on your progress. At the first sign of pneumonia or other secondary infection, he can administer an tibiotics or sulfonamides. These are not of much value in treating influenza, but they can prevent pneumonia from taking over. There are vaccines, too, which will help protect you from the influenza virus. I'll tell you about these at another time, and also give you, some instructions on what to do if you catch the flu. ' Question and Answer J. B.: I have been told I have an anal fissure. Is there a cure for it? Answer: An anal fissure is a condition in which there is a break in the mucous membrane of the anus. , For a cure, the doctor may either apply such preparations as silver nitrate to the fissure, or perform a simple operation for it Time Flies FROM STATESMAN FILES i. 10 Years Ago Jan. 21, 1945 The American public hung up a new coffee drinking record last year 28.3 per cent greater than ever before.

You can reflect ,on this as you make out your own income tax returns this time of year. I' recall S when there were no direct taxes for support of federal government Its revenues were derived chief. ly from tariffs and excise4 taxes. In the Spanish-American war the government imposed some stamp taxes but they were soon abandoned, The income tax came in with the administra tion of President Woodrow Wil son; and was hiked greatly dur ing the administration of Frank lin D.

Then Speak er Tom Reed of Maine rejoined, "This is a billion dollar coun try." And now it is at multi- billion dollar country. In soite of the burdens of taxation, fed eral, state, local, the standard of living for the American people is higher than ever. Af ter paying these taxes they have enough left to buy more 'auto mobiles, more television sets, more dishwashers and garbage disposal devices, more food and clothing, more housing and pro- viae more generous schooling . man any other country on earth In fact I think we are really rich enough to balance the budget. Sewage Issue Near Hubbard Near Solution A controversy over sewage dis posal from a slaughter house about one mfle east of Hubbard may be resolved, the Marion County Court was told Thursday. j The controversy occurred when sewage from Horse Meat Packers, Inc.. was channelled into a septic tank; having the same drain lines which served a residence nearby.
