Pros, Cons in textbook muddle
argued at three-hour hearing
Lumumba now
in hands of
worst enemies
By Phil Newaom
UPI Stiff Writer
Deposed Congolese Premier
Patrice Lumumba's escape plan
had failed and now the worst had
happened. He was in the hands
of his bitterest enemies.
In sun-drenched Leopoldville,
once a shining jewel in Belgium's
colonial empire, the scene was as
degrading a one as had been seen
in a dreary, seemingly endless
succession of such scenes from
Die very -moment, that Belgium
washed iU hands of its Congo re
sponsibilities and decreed free
dom for a people totally unpre
"pared. Congolese soldiers slapped and
punched Lumumba whose hands
were tied behind bis back.
They pulled his hair to force
him to turn toward photogra
phers. One wadded into a ball a piece
of paper bearing Lumumba's re
cent statement that he was the
Congo's only rightful premier and
attempted to shSve it down his
throat.
Lumumba Vanishes
Shortly afterward, Lumumba
disappeared from sight in the
hands of his captors and now pre
sumably is a prisoner in the gar
rison town o( Thysvuie, no nines
from Leopoldville.
Family newspapers avoid ex
cessively vivid details of violence.
But it seems fair to report that
In New Delhi, Indian premier
Jawaharlal Nehru expressed con
cern over reports that one of
Lumumba's captors had chewed
awav one of the captive's fingers.
True or not. It sets the level of
Congolese civilization.
' This is the situation In which
the United Nations finds Itself, a
situation which has deteriorated
steadily under Cold War pre
suros from without, tribal war
fare and the designs of ambitious
men from within.
While representatives of United
Nations suffer dally Indignities at
the hands of undisciplined Congo
lese troops to whom final author
ity is the gun butt
Last July, when United Notions
emergency forces moved into the
Congo at Lumumba'i invitation,
It seemed that a new day might
be dawning for the United Na
tions. For now It not only would
help to preserve world peace, it
also was acting to Insure peace
within a troubled new nation.
Perhaps a way had been found
(o Insulate new nations against
the Cold War.
But today, the U.N. command
in Urn rondo Is Itself rendered Im
potent by divisions within Itself.
To many of the Afro-Asian na
tions, including India, Lumumba
still la the Congo's rightful pre
mier. To others. Including the
United Stales, authority Is vested
in President Joseph Kasavubu
Meanwhile, the slender threads
holding the Congo together as a
. nation are giving way. Itlch Ka
tanga province wants out and
hopes for Belgian backing.

Company notes high living
standards of U.S. people
By Henry J, Bechtold

NEW YORK (UPI)-E. I. Du
Pont de Nemours and Co. be
lieves the price is right.
In a booklet, "The Story of
Prices," the giant industrial con
cern says that despite the rising
price trend, products and serv

than they ever did in the past.
Living standards, as measured
by the consumer's ability to buy

Court to hear
arguments on
'blue laws'
SALEM (UPI) - A fifiht In
Tieard over a literature textbook
was brought before the Oregon
Textbook Commission Tuesday
and pros and cons of the volume
were presented at a three-hour
public hearing here.
Bulk of the session was devoted
to criticism of "Adventures for
Today," a ninth-grade text ap
proved by the commission and
now in use in many Oregon jun
ior and senior high schools.
Mrs. James Willock of Tigard
was the chief critic of the book,
using the term , . . trash in the
classroom." She also said ". . .
some of the authors in this book
WASHINGTON (UPD-The Su
preme Court begins hearing argu
ments today on Sunday "blue
laws."
These are state statutes harking
back to colonial times which re
strict retail sales on Sunday.
For many years the high court
shied away from attempts to test
their constitutionality but an un
usual combination of commercial
and religious interest has suc
ceeded in lining up four cases for
decisions.
Two are from Pennsylvania,
the others from Massachusetts
and Maryland. Jewish merchants
and a cut-rate department store
chain aro the contestants.
Charge Constitution Violated
' The religious argument is that
blue laws constitute an establish
ment of religion that Is, the re
ligion Jt those Christian sects
which observe Sunday as tholr
holy day In violation of the
religious freedom guarantee in
the Constitution.
The contention Is that they vio
late the religious freedom of such
groups as Jews, Seventh Day Ad
ventista and Sovonlh Day Bap
tists, who keep Saturday as tho
sabbath.
This approach was taken by
Crown Koshor Super Market of
Springfield, Mass., which won a
ruling in a lowor ledcrai court
overturning the Massachusetts
blue law. This case, appealed to
tho high court by tho Springfield
chief of police, ll the first one
up for argument.
Charge Discrimination
The non-rollglous argument Is
that the blue laws discriminate in
favor of certain types of sales
and certain sellers against others.
For Instance, tho lower court
noted that the Massachusetts law,
which has been amended TO
times, permits digging for clams
but not dredging lor oysters. ai
though stores like Crown Market
must close alter 10 a.m. on muv
day, news dealers and druggists
may sell milk and tobacco all
day. Bakers also may stay open.
are the highest the world has ever
known at any time or in any
place, according to the booklet.'
It describes the price structure
as an Inseparable part of the
American economy, "an economy
that is at once consumer-controlled
and consumer-centered," and
shows how the price structure
evolved to meet tho growing and
changing needs of the American
people.
More Money Available
Du Pont says prices on Individ
ual items may be higher today
than they were in earlier times,
but people have far more money
to spend. Mechanization and in
dustrialization have swiftly In-,
creased man's ability to produce
the goods and services he needs,
and thus have increased his' buy
ing power, it states in the 32-page
Illustrated booklet
Operating on the premise that
the customer Is always right, the
producer, distributor and vendor
have made it their business to
hold prices down and push values
up. the booklet says.
Of course critics have been
quick to note that such a consumer-centered
economy Is subject
to abuses and to fanciful excur
sions, such as coonskin caps, hula
hoops and tailfins on automobiles.
But, the booklet declares, this
Indulgence in nonsense by the
American consumer from time to
time Is the mark of a free and
prosperous society.
One Other Way
The only alternative Is an econ
omy in which someone else
which has to mean tho govern
ment-tells the consumer what is
good for him, what he 'should buy.
and what the price shall De.
This captive market .approach
has been tried In many nations.
most notably in the modern world
by the Soviet Union. But It has
only resulted in - higher prices,
poorer values, gluts and short-
ages, and a low living standard.
Observing that America long
ago chose to build Its economy
on a competitive base, with the
price structure free from arbi
tary control, the booklet notes, "It
has never regretted its choice."
Graham rites
set for Thursday
Special to The Bulletin
REDMOND Funeral services
will be held Thurfday in Zacher's
Chapel for George Graham, 68,
who died Sunday at the Veterans
Hospital In Portland, where he had
been a patient since August 31.
The Rev. D. L. Penhollow will
officiate and interment will be in
the Redmond cemetery.
Born September 12, 1892, In West
Bend, Iowa, Mr. Graham was a
farmer in Powell Butte until he
moved to Redmond in 1939.
Aside from his widow; Pearl,
Redmond, he Is survived by a son,
Robert Graham, Redmond;
daughter, Miss Rita Graham, Red
mond; two brothers, Ray, .Asher,
Iowa, and Ed, Tracy, Minn.;
two sisters, Mrs. Alvin Cruse, Cy
linder, Iowa, and Mrs. Nell Cline,
Redlands, Calif., and one grand
child, Bobby Graham, Redmond.
have been listed on numerous' un
American activities groups. . ."
Dr. John Watkins of Tigard,
chief psychologist at the veterans
hospital in Portland, defended the
book and criticized what he
termed "book burners" 'and
"witch hunters."
Cltts Lincoln, Bible
Watkins said If you "look for
evil" you can find it out of con
text even in the writings of Ab
raham Lincoln, Omar Khayam,
William Shakespeare. Benjamin
Franklin and The Bible.
He was backed up by Mrs. Da
vid Paul, Tigard, who said the
"good of the book far outweighs
the objectionably portions."
Mrs. James Altken, Tigard, pre
sented letters to the editor that
had appeared in various newspa
pers criticizing the book.
Dr. Lloyd Mlllhollen of Eugene,
chairman of the commission, em
phasized that local school dis
tricts choose the material, for
their own schools and the com
mission cannot dictate what texts
are used.
Schools choose the books from
a master list of texts approved
by the commission. The master
list is flexible so local districts
can decide which books are best
for the area, he said.
Book Once Dropped
The controversy over Adven
tures For Today centers in Ti
gard. The local school board
dropped the book, then reinstated
it recently.
Millhollen agreed that some
parts ''don't add anything" to the
book but he said he would not
favor eliminating textbooks just
because a few parts are objected
to. Other commissioners agreed.
Police report
no solid clues
in car search
PORTLAND (UPI) Detec
tive CapL Gordon Auborn said to
day police have investigated 300
maroon car reports in the search
for a missing coed end the slayer
of her boy friend without turning
up anything solid to help solve
the case. ' j
The reports are continuing to
come in, he said.
Auborn said the description of a
car reported seen near where Lar
ry Ralph Peyton, 19. was stabbed
to death and Beverly Ann Allan
abducted the weekend of Nov. 26
27 was the most promising lead
so far.
The car was described as a
19)9 to 1931 model with a grille
with a bar broken out, painted
with a dull maroon primer coat
and with a streak of black primer
almost the entire length of the
car on the passenger's side.

Here's what PP&L customer Mrs.' E. K. Strong says about 'electric living:
"Here are four good reasons
why I call electricity my biggest bargain!"
"With four active children around, you can be sure there's
plenty of work to be done. But, when I think of the time and
effort my 29 electric appliances save me at a cost of only 35
a day that's a bargain that can't be beatl"
Like Mrs. Strong, thousands of PP&L customers are using lots
of low-cost electricity these days. In fact, the average home
maker in Pacific Powerland is using twice as much electricity
as the national average 1
