Where Was The Driver?
A' good many years back, when most of Central Ore
gon'iwfoads were of the macadamized or plain dirt type, a
strange piece of equipment seasonally appeared in Bend.
It was an electro -magnet road sweeper.
In recent years there has been little mention of the
magnetic sweeper locally, and we presumed that it had
been junked, as something not needed in this era of as-
he!t and concrete.
From the Oregon Statesman we learn the road sweep
er is still in use, and in its annual sweeps of every main
hifeV .i'ay in Oregon continues to gather a huge amount of
mo.! ai'."
',l 'X' study of some of the junk gathered from the high-ways-by
the powerful electro-magnet in the Salem area in
cluded items ranging from bottle caps, wiper blades, bolts
and Screwdrivers to breather caps, a hubcap, a fender
skirtrand a drive shaft,
. Recently, the magnet gathered an average of two
pounds of scrap metal per mile from the traveled surface
of tli'rf Baldock freeway between Salem and Portland.
Purpose of tho huge magnet is to remove from high
way?"junk that might cause flat tires, blowouts and ac
cider!(J. ,The amount of metal being swept from the modern
highways is indeed impressive, but it hardly compares
with J;he "take" of early years, viitm roads were corruga
ted and dust y.
rece il long ago that a Bend Bulletin reporter asked
an operator of the electro-magnet unit for a list of the
stuff ho had picked up that day in a sweep of Central
Ore'.on roads.
'Son", he mid, '"I bel'we we got every part of a Mod
Si T except the driver."

py "educating" mice, forest researchers are hopeful
of saving millions of dollars.

seed,'. Left on the ground, these seeds will produce new for
ests of pine, fir and spruce.
. Jho first thought of researchers was to eliminate the
iTiiCO'in areas where new forests should be growing. But
when one population of mice was eliminated, another
jrovsd into the "vacuum".
. Eradication obviously was not the answer. Then came
vjip suggestion from tho Department of Interior's fish and
yiilriSfe service that the mice be "educated", not eradi

Pakistan wants the United Na

that Kashmir's people can deciil

ru is on tne other side. He does
not want a plebiscite.
The trouble is Nehru knows that
if a plebiscite were held, the
Kashmiris would vote to join Pak
istan.
Full Debate Opposed
He said at a meeting of his
governing Congress party in New
Delhi lust Tuesday that the United
Nations should confine itself to
the question whether Pakistan has
been the aggressor ill the dispute
over Kashmir.
So on Wednesday, the prospect
is tha V. K. Krishna Menon, In
dia's chief delegate to the United
Nations will argue tfiat the plebi
scite issue should not even be de
bated.
Waco India and Pakistan were
given leir freedom in 1D47, what
had been British India was di
vided between them.
The division was made on the
basis of religion Hindu areas lo
India, Moslem areas to Pakistan.
Kashmir is a Mpslem area
which has long been under tie
rule ot Hindu maharaias.
Alter the 1317 partition, bolh
India and Pakistan moved troops
into the area. There .was bitter
fighting between Indian and Pak
istani troops, and tribesmen who
supported one side or the other,
from October, 1917, to the end of
1IHS.
Then (lie United Nations drew a
cease - fire line between the con
tending forces. India remained in
occupation of two - thirds of Kash
mir. Pakistan stayed in the re
maining one-third.
The United Nations called for a
plebiscite aftel- both Indian ahd
Pakistani armies had withdrawn.
Double IVl'iancei
Nehru agreed to the plebiscite
at one time, but he started lo
specify conditions that blocked it.
Chiefly, he demands that Paki-
lani troops get out first. He also
wants troops lo be stationed in
Kashmir during the vote in the
proportion of seven Indian sol
diers to one Pakistani soldier.
More than tviree million of Kash
mir's '1.4 million people arc Mos
lems. Indian officials have said pri
vately Hint if a plebiscite were
held, the vote would go GO per
cent for Pakistan. -10 per cent for
India. They hardly can be 'as
sumed to have over estimated the
Pakistani majority.
Another angle of the situation is
that the United Nations specified
that there should lo no change in
Kashmir's status until the plebiscite-
was held.
Hut the part of Kashmir which
India holds has adopted a consti
;ution under which it is to come
inder the Indian constitution on
Thursday, the day alter the U.N.
debate starts.
So Nehru, the self - dctermina
tionisl, seems to be jn double do
fiance of the United Nations as
rcg.irds Kashmir.

Hearing the spoken word while
waicmng television manes us won
der what language we've been us
ing all these years. Surely not
English. Or maybe styles have
changed. Perhaps we used good
grammar and acceptable pronun
ciation years ago, but we re just
out of fashion at the moment.
An announcer informed us yes
terday that so-and-so was the
"modera -TOR." Accent on the
last syllable. Everyone I know
says "MOD-er-A-tor,'1 to rhyme
with "GI-AD-iator." (Don't tell me

The Rev. Robert Richards ap
peared on "What's My Line" as

ivijht. As Bob Richards, he was
champion pole vaulter in the
Olympics in 1952 and 1956. He did
not give the panel too much
trouble.
The usually meticulous Dorothy
Kilgallen made the telling thrust.
But the way she phrased her ques
tion was unexpected, to say the
least. "Are you a reverend?" she
asked.
This just goes io prove that yes
terday's boner is tomorrow's ac
cepted form. Perhaps even now,
"reverend" is listed in new dic
tionaries as a noun as well as an
adjective. But I have to be shown!
George Gobel ad libbed effec
tively as "mystery challenger" on
What's My Line." The Chief
made a profound observation, to
wit:
'If they'd fire (hat guy's writers
and let him just net the fool, he'd
be the biggest hit on television.
