Dr. Harlow Shinier, world-known astron omer at Harvard University, thinks the an swer is plenty. There's not a million to one chance of ever finding a planetary civiliza tion with creatures who look like what we term people, be says, but there is every prob ability that soma such populations might be mora Intelligent Accepting the estimate of the universe hav ing 20 quintillion start (20 teres), each of them a potential source of light and warmth for any planets In its field, Dr. Shapley says liveable conditions like those on earth should be prevalent at least 100 million times "and when physics, chemistry and climate are right on a planet, life is an inevitable step in bio chemical evolution." ZJit for our own "nearby" solar system, only Venus seems to hold a possibility of life. And Venus keeos her - mysteries shrouded in clouds. When and if the barrier of distance li broken down, however, shell provide an in teresting study. And as one ponders the pos sibilities inherent, one can see why the world of science it increasingly fascinated with vis ual explorations which some day may take physical form. Spizzerinctum Sen. Wiley of Wisconsin complains that the lighting on TV doesnt do Justice to Presi dent Eisenhower, making him look old instead of being full of "spizerinctum." We wont quarrel with the statement, since our own TV set makes people look worse than old except whenever the repair man shows up. Then it performs beautifully. But we'd like to pick a quarrel with the senator, and whatever reporter wrote the story, over that word "spizerinctum." The reporter must never have heard of the word and apparently asked the senator about it Wiley was quoted as saying it was coined by an old banker friend in Chippewa, Wis. Which all may be true. But we doubt it The word is in Webster's New Interna tional Dictionary second edition, although spelled with a double "x," and its definition is: "Energy, ambition, the will to succeed." A second meaning is: "tawdry adornment or or namentation, m on a building: gimcrackery." It is dubbed "U.S. slang." And comes from the Latin. That must have been quite an bid banker friend Wiley had. CRIN AND BEAR IT By Lichty. li?-J f n rrfln(l 'V w v Jury Probe Seen Monday Investigation of possible crim inal libel charges against Portland chiropractor Dr. Paul Mossberf by a Manon County frand jury may lend Monday, District Attorney Kenneth Brown said Friday. Brown based his statement on news that Dr. Rom Elliott, a much sought witness in the investigation, was served with a subpoena Thurs day night by Marion County Sher iffs deputies. Inability to subpoena Elliott had forced Brown to call 'a temporary halt in the hearing last Wednesday. Involved in the investigation is Dr. Forrest Goddard of Salem. chairman of the state board of 'chiropractic physicians, who Moss- berg accused of aiding in the pro curement ot an aoonion. Mossnerg made the charge in a petition filed cith Gov. Elmo Smith asking that Goddard be removed from his state board job. Fire Department Measures 7 Two measures on the city ballot next week tleal with expenditures for the fire depart ment One is a bond issue for $65,000 to fi nance installing a fire alarm system. The other Is for continuing tax levy to pro vide $37,000 for additional personnel in the fire department Both should be consid ered together as they are part of a compre hensive plan for raising the standard of Sa lem's fire defenses. If the plan outlined by Oie board of fire underwriters is carried out, definite assurance is given of a reduction in local insurance rates which will more than repay this outlay. Thus, it eemi to be good The fire alarm system recommended Is the familiar red box on telephone poles. We have been In doubt over the wisdom of this , fo'rtallBtion, but a discussion with Fire Chief Smith has convinced us of its superiority over another system employing telephone com munications. The latter would call for a con tinuing expense while the box alarm system requires only minimum maintenance. . True, Salem has gotten on pretty well with out the box alarm system, but In fighting fire speed is of the essence and values, especially in the central business area, are 10 great as to lustily una relatively small outlay, espec ially when it will come back through savings in insurance premium!. , ; ' Our recommendation is to vote 60 and 61 YES.

Now we wouldn't want to cast any doubts on his story, knowing him to be an eminently honest man except when talking about fish. But we'd like to point out that the California coast has crab, too. But does that mean they're the large, succulent, unsurpassable Northwest crab? It certainly doesn't. If any Northwest salmon is lurking off the Southern California coast it must be because he was disowned by his family and friends up here. Or and this is more likely there is runty type of fish with meat of unfirm texture and pale coloration which is masquer ading as a salmon, but it isn't rugged enough to be one. Calif ornians might be taken in by such a specie, but Scotty, as a once-loyal Northerner, otta know better. But we'd be lieve him on most any other subject.

He said their costs would ap proach S4.7SO.000. The balance will come from the general fund of the state and the federal government allotment.

The Salem area is indeed fortunate in its variety of opportunities for Its youngsters. Editorial Comment INDUSTRY'S OWNERS One of the most fruitful economic developments of recent years lias been the surprising expansion and growth of stock ownership among individual Americans. , In the old days of catch-as-catch-can speculation, when professional muckrakers condemned stock ownership as "gambling"-often with good reason the public shied away from that form of in vestment. But today plain folks, not professional traders, are buying more and more pieces of big business in the form of stocks. American Telephone and Telegraph, for Instance, Is now owned by l.9,000 shareholders, double the number of any other American firm. General Motors Is second with 537,751. For IS major corporations, the combined num ber of stockholders is 4 .HI. 221. This is a net increase of 7 per cent over last year alone. Most of these owners are "little people," holding from one to 100 shares. The vast majority do not trade. They buy stocks, collect their dividends and leave them undisturbed to increase in value. Others belong to pools, like the vastly expanding Investment trusts, which now own great blocks of stocks and in turn divide their profits with their own shareholders . . . By the logic of economic evolution, Americans have become partners of big business in every way. Los Angeles Examiner. Vulnerability of West's Oil Interests In Middle East Points to Future Trouble Pu Qnestlooetl To the editor: Some further explanation seems called for re the recent polls by the Dan Clark Associates and Warren Waterhouse, which were written up by Thomas G. Wright and headlined as cheering the backers of McKay. The chief of these, William L. Phillips, hails the results as "a remarkable trib ute to Doug McKay" and his "deep roots in the admiration and affection of the man in the street" in Oregon; but Bill's interpreta tion might be a bit biased, per haps. To begin with, admiration, af fection and popularity do not al ways add up to votes, as Winston Churchill discovered in 1945 when he was so decisively defeated by the British Labor Party. Compare twe Congressional and guberna torial elections in 1954! Further, the men in the street In Multnomah county, to which the Dan Clark survey was con fined, happen to be mostly Demo crats! Maybe Democrats don't count in popularity contests: at least it seems clear to me that they weren't counted when (as we art reminded) McKay rolled up a large (Republican) majority against Morse for the 1952 Repub lican Convention, and (as we are not reminded) helped maneuver him off the resolutions committee! Since then, as I recently pointed out, Morse has become a Demo crat. And Democratic voters now outnumber Republicans in Ore gon. In view of this, Phillips's claim, based on the polls as ex plained in The Statesman article, that "McKay will roll up a very much larger majority against Morse" in 1956, seems like a pretty rash assumption, since it apparently ignores the indepen dent as well as the Democratic voters. Incidentally, it calmly as sumes that Phil Hitchcock is out of the running; which may be true, though I gather The States man does not think so. Nor does this week's Time, which describes him as running better than any one thought he would, even though, except for "occasional sharp notes," both Republicans have turned their fire on Morse and been polite to each other. Such mutual admiration is touch .,ing, but I doubt that it wins many "votes. Ivan Lovell, Criosan Creek Rd., Salem, Ore. Proper Zoning Said Health Benefactor Correction of hazards and incon veniences is more costly to proper ty owners than proper planning and zoning beforehand, David Bak er, Marion County planning tech nician, told the Marion County Health Council Friday. Lack of planning or improper zoning creates health and safety hazards in sewage problems, fire dangers and overcrowding, he said at the council's monthly noon lunch in Marion Hotel. County zoning laws are becoming increasingly important with the base at Fairfield such as. "May be converted into shack town." I know you did not mean that. You know better; you just want to scare voters to approve zoning. The Air Base is a defense fed eral project and no state, county or city or any individual will have rapid growth ot suburban areas, he anything to say as to its affairs, said. Twenty-nine subdivisions This base will be sign posted were developed in the past year in "Keep Out," probably 1 mile Marion County, he said. The coun- j away. It will be fenced and guard- ty does not have zoning laws, vot ed so who would want to live there ers will be asked to authorize them in the primary election next Fri day. State Officer Praised for Auto Record A state police officer who drove his 1953 patrol car 106.171 'miles without a major overhaul was commended Friday by Gov. Elmo Smith. The officer is William C. Flippo, Chtskanie. The motor of the car is still in good running order, the brakes have never been relined. the paint shows little wear and the car is exceptionally clean, the governor said. State police say that is Is .un usual for one officer to drive the same car for such an extended period of time. Flippo operates a one-man office at CLatskanie.

Fluoridation Opposed To the editor: You know I like the Statesman and take pride in telling out of state people about . our home paper, and even took it to Cali fornia with me to show them there two weeks ago. Then to come back and read your endorsement of fluoride. I just can't see how you willingly or unwittingly became a part of this scheme to force upon all peo ple this poison at a terrific ex pense. If the ones that want this are really interested in the children's teeth, why not include the child' ren in the country as well. Then make it state-wide in tablet form free to all that want it. I read where Switzerland has it in the salt, the same as iodized salt. I feel there is something more than teeth in all this pro gram. J. K.

Zon ing, which he termed "a plan for living, shopping and working," strives to reserve each area for its most important use and to avoid conflicting uses in adjacent areas, he explained. Hearing Set on Bus Firm's Fare Hike Plea Hearing on a Continental Pacific Trailways application to increase fares 15 per cent will be 10 a. m. May 25 in Portland, it was an nounced Friday by Charles A. Helt zel, state public utilities commis sioner. The company states the increase is necessary because of rising costs since the last time fares were ad justed in 1951. Time Flies FROM STATESMAN FILES Pre-School Age Students Due at Bush A pre-school meeting for next fall's first graders at Bush School will be held at 115 p.m. Tuesday at the school. Children will visit classrooms while mothers attend a meeting in the auditorium at which school routine will be explained by Prin cipal Walter Beck. Mrs. Jean Jones and Miss Genevieve Russell, special education teachers, will speak on reading and special serv ices, respectively. Mrs. Emma Wasson, school lunch program di rector, will explain the operation of the cafeteria. And Miss Ruth Ingram, school nurse, will talk on health examinations. Refreshments will be served by second grade teachers. Gov. Smith Asks Drivers Support Safety Campaign Support of the national "Slow Down and Live" traffic safety campaign, which runs from Memo rial Day to Labor Day, was called for Friday by Gov. Elmo Smith. Smith said he hopes the state can improve its safety record. Traffic fatalities last summer were up 10 per cent from the previous summer. , The campaign is aimed at reduc ing speeding and decreasing the number of traffic violations. The U.S. death rate has declined about 46 per cent since 1900. HOW CHRISTIAN SCIENCE HEALS Station KSLM 1390 K.

If the Arab aatlraaOst drhr finally forces Britain to play her hole card, one can foresee all torts of other very grave troubles, per haps on the borders here, cer tainly at Sues, aad quite prob ably at Aden. The Soviet object In the Middle East is simply to use Arab na tionalism to bring down the West ern Alliance, by encouraging the Arab states to deny to the West the vital oil on which Birtain and Western Europe so absolutely de pend. Since this is quite certainly the Soviet purpose, it is a little difficult to see what good results can be expected by trying to ne gotiate a Middle Eastern settle ment with the Soviets. This in creasingly popular expedient will be like sitting down with your own murderer to argue about whether he win stab you in the heart or only cut your jugular vein.

The problem in the Middle East, therefore, ia not just to prevent a new outbreak of Arab-Isreali fighting. The problem ia to find a firm, united, imaginative and generous Anglo-American policy towards Arab nationalism which will frustrate the Soviet strategy and rpotect the oil source with out recourse to desperate meas ures.
