TWO MEDrORD (OHEGON) MAIL TRIBUNE rrldiy. February 10. 18S0 In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS Sign of the times: A daughter weighing 3Vi kilos (7V4 pounds) was born the other day in Buenos Aires (Argentina) to an Englisn couple named rir ton. The next day they got a kidding telegram of congratula tions from an American friend. The message read: "Congratulations safe arrival three and one-half kilos dyna mite." The Argentine police, who hav the pleasant little habit of reading everybody's correspond tnce, promptly clapped Kirton Into jail. Like all totalitarians, they have no sense of humor, nd that "dynamite" business was too much for them. They envisioned Kirton as taking his 314 kilos of dynamite under his rm and blowing President Peron to kingdom come. BSURD? Of course it's absurd. But things like that arc what happen when too much power is held in too few hands too long.

This is It: "Liberty versus Socialism." It appealed to me as milder tha dishwater, and apparently it didn't scare the fair deal boys much. Anyway, "Veep" Bark ley came back at the GOP leaders with I demand that they tell the voters specifically what demo cratic-sponsored laws they want repealed. He added: "Let them be honest and say whether they are for or against these laws, we're not afraid of their shibboleths or their pro mulgations. "Legislation for extending so cial security coverage and in creasing benefits is now before the senate. I would like to ask the republican platform-makers to say whether they call that so- cialistlc and whether they are for it or against it." EVERY TIME the republican poohbas get to muttering in their beards about the socialistic sins of the democrats, the demo crats ask them that $64 question as to Just what they would re peal if given tne cnance. tvery time, so far, It has folded them up like a ham-and-egg fighter when he gets a hard, straight one on the button. I think the republicans are going to have to answer that question, specifically, sooner or later cither that or stay out of power. One of the soundest of political maxims is that you can't beat somebody with no- horiv. It is eauallv true that you can't beat something with noth ing. The voters of this generation aren't going to be attracted by vague mutterings in the republi can beard about "socialism." If they are to vote the republican t cket aeain. they must rje oi- fercd something they can get their teeth into. IF I WERE doing It, I'd answer the question something like this: i "First, we're going to BAL ANCE THE GOVERNMENT'S BOOKS. We're going to spend no more (including annual pay ments on the principal of our debt) than we can raise by taxa tion. We think that keeping our nation solvent is tne Dig issue. "As for social benefits, they are f no. In these days of grow- in technological progress, with the machine and modern assem bly line methods providing pro duction of things in volume ex ceeding any dream of the past, It is possible to provide the peo ple with social benefits that couldn't be even imagined a gen eration or so ago. We're all for such progress toward better liv ing standards and fewer gnawing worries about old age. "WE'RE GOING TO PRO VIDE ALL OF' THIS SORT OF THING WE CAN PAY FOR AS WE GO WHILE AT THE SAME TIME PAYING OFF THE DEBT WE HAVE ALREADY IN CURRED." I THINK a platform something like that would Interest quite a lot of people. Rogue River LOANS Start the New Year with a clean slate. Pay those Holi day bills with cash.
