Rivalry of the Winds
' While our learned meteorologists have
V been explaining with - TV graphs just how
our weather got that way" last week,, and
talking about rxlar fronts and Pacific fronts
if and high and low pressure areas, the Indians
vX ef long ago had their own legend about the
IJV rivalry of the winds.
According to the Yakimas five Chinook
rj- brothers who lived on Great River (Colum-
bia) made the warm wind to blow. But an
!:: other five brother who lived at Well a Walla
i" marie the cold wind"toTblow. - Grandoarents
; cf both set of bothers lived ii Umatilla,
place of wind-blown sands. ' . .
Of course these sets of brothers were; al
I; rays fighting. They would blow down trees,
J; 6-r raise big clouds of dust, freeze the rivers,
' then thaw j themsoL fast the floods came. -'
Finally the; Walla Walla brothers challenged
" . the Chinook brothers to a wrestling match.
T Whoever fell down would have
off. Coyote, alvays the smart guy in Indian
- lore, would be the umpire. .
. Coyote, smart guy, told grandparents of
the Chinooks to throw oil on the ground,
!j then their grandsons wouldn't f?U. And he
'J told grandparents of the Walla Walla broth
h ers to throw ice on the ground so their grard
2 sons wouldn't fall. In the competition the
. walla Wallas threw the ice aown last, so mey
! prevailed and the Chinook brothers had their
1$ - heads cut off by Coyote. --"
!- ; However, the oldest Chinook had a baby
$on, and of course his mother taught him he

h Z there had to be another wrestling match, on
?f Z the same terms, with Coyote Ihe judge. Coy- ,

he said for JChinook to pour oil last. Young
h- Chinook, wrestled and threw all the Walla
- Walla brothers and Coyote ait their hs??s
w Z off, save the last one. He let hm I've, but he
told h'm: "You must blow only i"htly. ou
must neverfreeze the people again." And he
told Young Chinook:
' -"You shall blow hardest only tt niht.
51 YoiT shall blow first on the mountain ridges
to warn the people." .
;J S Sometimes, like last week, the surviving
Walla Walla blows too hard and people do
Ij "freeze. But not for long. ' Chinook soon
comes and j blows harder. That is why our

erman offers a different explanation.

(Brings Tears to Eyes of

Statesman Correspondent t
- WASHINGTON Seven visit

' were bawled out by Senators on
Capitol Hill
were visibly

c e i v e d last
Sunday from
members of a
small Wash
ington church
where they at
tended serv-
ices.
A. Seven Inltl ' j
I reporters and
- edntors heard a sermon on "For

Cosby, and later greeted the
minister with a warmth that in
dicated their response.

member of the visiting delega
tion whether he would please
take- back to Russia " the ex
pressed love of the American
people, the Russian promised to
do so as tears edged from the
corners of his eyes and tum
bled down his cheeks.
The minister was not notified
until the previous day that the
. newsmen weold be in his con
. gregation, and his sermon tonic
had been selected earlier In the
week. He and members ef his
church are firmly convinced
that the Lord had the situation
.well in hand to have brought
the Soriet . visitors to their

Moreover, they"were attend

gregation that is radically inte

Church of : the Saviour, Negroes,
Caucasians! rnd Orientals pray

- The Church of the Saviour is
not affiliated with any of the
protestantr denominations. It is'
an ecumenical church, affiliated
with the National Council of
Churches and the World Coun

Tonic to Ike
President Eisenhower had one caller at his
'Gettysburg office last Thursday whose call
did him more good than. a doctor with pills.
His visitor wes Rowland Hughes, director of
the budget. Kis tonic was a report that '.'it
looks, as if" the federal budget can be bal
anced in this fiscal year end in the next. -,
Having cast its anchor on the rock of sound
finance away back in the days of New Deal
free and easy spending, the GOP consistent
ly plead for balancing 4he budget. It was one
of the planks in the 1932 platform but the
villain Of deficits managed to hang on to life,
in spite of efforts of. Rep. John Taber in the
House and Sen. Harry Byrd in the Senate. At
long last, thanks to paring of expenses and
the business boom with its resulting increase
in tax collections a balanced budget seems to
be in sight. If it is realized Democratic scof
fing at unfulfilled promises in the -1956 cam
paign will be less, pronounced. ' .
"" Since 1956 is an election year Congress will
seize the prospect of a budget balance to or
der some tax cuts. If they are not too severe,
the loss of revenue may not cause a deficien
cy. The cuts, properly placed, may serve as
business stimulant which in turn would
produce more revenues. That was the way
cuts worked in the 1920s. .".
At any event we may be .sure President
Fisenhower took a lot of satisfaction out of
the virit of Eudgeteer Huthes. and the coun
' try will enjoy the same if his hopes f real

Muscular Dystrophy Fund-Raising
This week postal carriers and city firemen :
; will collect funds for the Muscular Dystrophy
associations. Previously The Statesman has
objected to use of uniformed public employes
in general fund solicitation. However, that
does not disparage the objective which they
are supporting, namely the attack on this
serious disease.
?In Portland he board of United Fund has
criticised the separate campaigns conducted
for this and for the United Cerebral Palsy
association. That is understandable, too.
Having worked hard to pool all appeals for
philanthropy they find it discouraging to
hve new ones break out. The Statesman has
Ion? cdvocatd a smsjle combined appeal for
health projects without success.
Again though, we come back to thevreality
of muscular dystrophy whose effects are so ?
damaging and whose cure' remains unknown. 1
The disease, is described' as "a chronic, non-.
contagious, progressive disease, manifested
by weakness and wasting of the voluntary
muscles. Its cause is unknown, though faul
ty metabolism is suspected. More than half
of the known victims are children between
. the ages of 3 and 13. That makes the appeal
for funds to fight the disease more touching.
The Statesman believes the cause is wor
thy, but wishes -these separate drives would
be put in the pool, and thinks, it is not a good
practice .for uniformed services to engage in
public solicitation for funds.

higher social and professional
levels. As to tne lauer it may
spring from professional jealousy.
As to -the former it derives from
a desire for exclusiveness and '
fraternity with those of one's
own stamp. .
To quote Attwood again:
"But it's safe to ssy that the
last big barrier standing between
Jews and other Americans is a
social one. This doesn't make
it trivial. The social barrier is
more important in many com
munities than most Gentiles sus
pect For the power- structure
of any' small city is usually
centered in the number-one
country club and rare indeed is
the 'prestige club that admits
Jews."
As for the, 'frequent assertion
that Jews are clannish, Attwood
. admits that "Jews tend to be ;
clannish' and -explains it "partly
because l they are frequently er-,
eluded from Gsntile society and
partly because thev are mor
comfortable with other Jews."
This last pattern 'applies to al-'
2-most all social groupings.
It is hard to . define a Jew.
Jews are not a separate race.
They are of the Mediterranean
type for the most part, but many
segments of Jewry have squired
'ff-rent physical characteristics
'during their dispersion. They are
not strictly a religion because
. many Jews no longer ; adhere
o the old religion. They are
'Nv people, however, and proud of
their . identity. Attwood offers
this definition: "A Jew is a
member of a historical commun-.have

external pressure. Religion how
ever is 'the principal . unifying
'force. .: ; ;
Jews are fast becoming well
integrated in America. 'In time,
says . Attwood, "American Jews
will no longer be regarded as I
'different any more than
Quakers are today." And with
acquaintanceship will come clos
er social fraternization, though
the danger then would be to the ,
Jews that they would desert their ;
affiliation and blend into the gen
eral mass of Americans.; . -In
the 300 years that Jews have ;
resided in America' they have -played
their full part in elir na
tional history. They cat? claim'
high rank as citizens. The Cath
olic magazine "America" - lists
four distinguishing traits of
Jews: temperance, industry, fam
ily solidarity and a zeaL for edu
cation. Attwood reports that sur
veys show that crime, divorce,
delinquency and alcoholism rates
among Jews are lower than tht . ,
national average.- : . . ,
. It is unsafe, however, to deal
wholesale with any large group.
Jews are individuals I and should
be regarded as individuals, and
appraised for their own worth.
As fast as this is done old pre
judices will fade and barriers
long held .against Jews simply
because they are Jews will drop
off. .
