summons for a hearing before the AFL-CIO:

miller Cities Share Growth ' if'
PopuUUon growth Isnt the; only index of '
i stable economy, by any means, but assumi
ng it is a major one the latest figures of the
State Board, of Health indicate Oregon's
argest cities aren't alone in their "progress.''
Ill three cities in the 5,000-10,000 bracket in
he Salem area showed gains Dallas. 11.4
r cent Lebanon 9.8. McMinnville 5.5. Of
he three cities in the 1900-5,000 bracket,
iweet Home gained 15.2, Woodburn 14.8, Sil
erton held about even,
j Stayton led the Mid-Valley cities in the
J.000-2,500 bracket with a 43.7 per cent in
crease (from 1,507 to 2,185), with Can by (27.5)
and Monmouth (10.8) also showing major
gains. Mt Angel and Molalla both increased '
0 and 4.2 respectively), with Mill City, Sber-
an and WiUanuna recording slight de-
reases. -.,-. . ,., .
Turner topped the growth among cities In
, i ;
the 500-1,000 class (21 per cent), with Silcts
and Jefferson sharing in the growth and
Amity, Dayton and Falls City pretty well
holding their own.. i
Figures for the smaller towns showed St
.Paul (18.6) and Sublimity (19.9) leading the
parade, with Donald, Aumsville, Sdo and -Gen
sis also thriving. Idanha and Scotts
Mills fell off in the 1950-57 interim, as did
Gates leu sharply, with Aurora and Hubbard
.keeping the same- ststus. Detroit has been
incorporated since 1950 and therefore has no
comparable figures.
,. As a whole, the valley seems to have kept
pace well with the state' overall growth,
markedly exceeding the average in several
instances. We can certainly look for the
trend to continue.

Churchill and Longevity
-, Sir Winston Churchill startles those with
puritan antecedents when he offers as a pre
scription for longevity: "A lot of drinking,
a lot of eating and eight or nine hours of
sleep, most of it in the daytime."
. At 82 he may pose as proof of the validity
of his counsel, but the mortality statistics do'
not corroborate his recipe. Overindulgence
iq food and drink still is charted as a short
route to the grave. .-.
As for daytime sleeping, that is for the
sluggard (or the night-workers). It defies
Benjamin Franklin . and 'Horatio Alger and
the ancient aaw about the early bird and the
worm. We wonder if Churchill his never
' been roused thus:
"A birdie with a yellow bin s
Hopped upon the window' sill.
Cocked his shining eye and said:
'Ain't you 'shamed, you sleepy-bead?"
- At 82 a man must be allowed his foibles
and his fantasies. Besides, Sir Winston, for
his' deeds and words, belongs among the
heroes. If trfmblera of brandy and roasts of
good beef and daytime sleeping can prolong
his life and keep up his mental fitness, who s
to say him nay?; An exceptional figure in
world history, let him remain an exception to
the rule of sobriety, diet and regular sleeping
hours. ' '

Hirris Ellsworth's came received Senatf
.-approval when presented as an appointee to
. the civil service commission Following con-
flrmation, President Eisenhower designated
him as chairman of the commission. This .
will please his Oregon friends who regretted,
to see him cast adrift after serving 14 years
as representative from the Fourth Oregon
district. It isnt easy for a guy who has cut
loose his business connections to get new
foothold after so long an absence. Moreover,
I the years in government provide one with a
fund of knowledge and experience which
often can be put to good use in some admin
'istrative department Admittedly, this is a
"lame duck", appointment but it should not
be criticised out of hand on that account.

The administratioa of Jordan's

' I, now the Ameri-

menacing, of course, about the

tivet.
Since the methods of Madison
Ave. are not well understood In
the Middle East, a good many
people in these parts have .been
a bit bewildered by the spectacle
of our new roving ambassador
peddling the Eisenhower Doctrine .
like a ne wbrand of soap flakes.

There are several reasons for
this. In the first place, a great -many

throughout the Middle East, are
convinced that American Influ

In the second place, everyone

the extraordinary visit of British

These highly unpleasant alter
native results of a aUchards visit
have been explained to the State
Department with rather desper

has been made that Congressman
Richards can Just possibly emit
Jordan from bis itinerary.
But at these words are being
written, the State Department's
powerfully reasoned answer still,
stands: that It Is better Clngress
man Richards to come and be
refused, than for Congressmen '
Richards not to coma at all.
Perhaps this answer will have
been changed before these word ,
can be printed. But the story of
