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

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.

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. Christian Science Monitor.

Rods Can liberate; Island After Island
As Long as Ui S. 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

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?

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
