Harsch, Washington cor- respondent for the Christian Science Monitor, calli the "first really hew policy" which Sec I retary Dullei hat initiated bean fruit again ; in tha invitation to the Soviet Union to ait In' the International conference to discusa the Suet canal problem. Dullea initiated it ; last sprlnf at the time of the Middle East ;' crisis. Then London was urging a three-power ' demand by Britain. France, the United States en Israel and Egypt Dulles had Ambassador Lodge at United Nations offer a resolution invoking the agency of the secretary general I to attempt to effect some peace in the Middle ; East. Thia served to bring in the Soviet Union ' which went along with the resolution and It the same time backed off from giving ; support to the Arab states. When Britain and ; France seemed inclined to take immediate military action at the Sues, Dulles urged an international conference with the Soviet Union invited. This wai agreed to, and Russia ! hat accepted, with certain observations of J Jtt own. ! The significance, says Harsch, is that this ! reverses an old policy of western Europe to S block out Russia from the Middle East where I the West's influence was paramount. It is even, he says,' "a truly radical departure" I from U.S. policy since the promulgation of J the Truman doctrine In 1947, which was one ' pf containment of., the- Communist- power. -f Whether it will be letting the bear get his nose in the tent or whether it may lead to , fuller cooperation for peace between the I West and Russia remains to be seen. What is ! true it that the Soviet Union la a power in ; world affairs today. Its assistance should be ; welcome if the bear doesn't proceed to , shoulder out all the other powers. The com ; ing conference will provide another test of ; Russia't intention! respecting world security. J. . ' " - J ; Governor J. Bracken Lee it carrying hit j feud against U.

Because of ltt tlow sched ule it was dubbed the "nightcrawler.'VIn pro cess are hearings by the state public service commission on the demand of Southern Ore gon communities that the train be restored. A session was held In Medford last week and another will be held In Roseburg "at a date to be set." The hearings schedule seems to follow .'the rnightcrawler" schedule. It still is hard to tee' how the railroad can be required to continue a service patronized by at few passengers as was the old Rogue River. 5 Arab labor unions are reported as ready to sabotage foreign petroleum operations in. their countries if the West seizes and holds the Suet canal. They might do this, but they .would be the first to suffer.

"Why did ' Truman do it?" they keep asking m a tone of superior wonder, ; sounding not angry but only a nine - sick at heart. Well, surely the answer Is that Truman did h be cause ha wants to aea Harriman nominated and help, Harriman f has a chance chance but still a P"" MmT chanceof getting the nomina tion. It will be a tough, rough fight, but no one revels la ear-,-rage more than Harry 8. Tru man. It ia a very long shot bet. but Harry Truman has wan long shot bets before this.

He helped to persuada Harriman te declare himself in inch wai perhaps not dreadfully ' ; 7 Harriman Seen Fight - Loving Ex difficult to do. Many weeks ago, he told Harriman in plain terms that he was "for" him, In the sense that Harriman waa his pre ferred candidate, better in his opinion even than Adlai Steven son, whom Truman had also en couraged to make the contest.

More than 100,000 Japanese-Americans were uprooted early in 1942 and placed in what were veritably concentration camps. There were doctors and lawyers and news papermen and f6lk from practically every walk of life, both American citizens and non citizens. It it hardly a wonder that nearly 3000 of the Nisei (native-born Americans) were so stunned by such discriminatory treat ment that they renounced their citizenship. Under the Justice Department"! new at titude, 157 pending auits wherein restoration ia demanded can be dropped, and automatic restoration of citizenship is in ttore for nearly 1000 others whose loyalty has been proven and who seek to become American citizens again. It is not aurprising. even in lh cold light of reappraisal, that a nation should be so angered and perturbed by the treacherous attack on Pearl Harbor that it went so far as to penalize all the nationals of the attack ing race. But it remains surprising and sad-, dening that native-born citizens of our own land should be so treated without investiga tion, trial or any indication of wrong-doing. Retaliation in the form of citizenship re . nouncement did them no good, but two wrongs don't make a right, and we commend the Justice Department for taking the same view. Fine Record-Thus Far ' When Oregon can come up to August 1 with less than 800 acres of its forest land burned over. that, indeed, is cause for con gratulation! all around. Such was the report Monday at the annual board meeting of Keep Oregon Green. Actually, compared to former years, 19M could well aet a record. There had been 265 man-caused fires and 943 lightning-caused fires in state and national forestr of Oregon up to the first of this month. The man-caused trouble still Is far too heavy, but the fact that tuch fires, as well at those from natural causes, were doused with so small an over all damage tpeaks well for quick reporting and efficient fire-fighting. KOG didn't attempt to tay Just what part Ha 85,000 members 18 to 16) are playing in the reduction of forest losses, but having that many youngsters growing up with a thorough knowledge of the dangers inherent as well as their own responsibilities in the matter cannot but reflect great benefit now and in the years to come. But the aeason Isn't over. Come the east winds and we'll need every bit of aid we can get to keep the loss down. And we'll need a new reminder that anyone throwing out burning material from a car cigarets. etc. it tubject to prosecution. Oregon't forests comprise a precious; heritage... -, Our eyet blinded when we saw "OSP An niversary" as heading for an editorial in the Medford Mail-Tribune. The text however dealt with the 25th anniversary of the Oregon State Police.

Henry Semon who served, for 12 terms in the House, after election on the Democratic ticket, has filed for reelection as an lnde-' pendent. He explains that the county Demo cratic organization thinks he Is too conserva tive so he will try.not to burden their .ticket. Regardless of party Semon has been an in fluential legislator, and we anticipate his re election by Klamath voters. The 1956 wheat crop is pushing the billion bushel mark. Latest estimate is for 938,088.. 000 bushels, up 18.726.000 from the July figure. Corn estimates though dropped from 3.266,000,000 to 3,143,779,000 bushels. The figures assure an abundance of foodstuffs for man and beast too much for the normal market, and more stuff for the CCC to handle. as 'Long-Shot - Pres. Truman Tramaa laid his personal entour age that he laleaded ta maintain a pahlle aealrallty. That was his apparent inten tion, in fact.' almost until the opening of his famous press con ference, at which he first prom ised to reveal his choice. It is a fair bet that the last strsw of persuasion was laid on the some times yielding camel's back of Truman's prudence by Judge Samuel Rosenman, an ardent Harrimanite, with whom Truman conferred Just before the press conference began. After that, the problem was not what Truman would do, but how he would do it, Streams of Harri man supporters urged a pow rful statement. Streams of Stevenson admirers sought to avoid the worst, which would have been a statement hinting that Stevenson was not a "fighting candidate." la hla awa suite.
