Successful Meeting Of NATO Headlines Week's News Repo Br PHIL NEWSOM V. P. Foreign News Editor ,- .The week's. balance sheet be--tween the good and bad news la the hot and cold wars: THE GOOD 1- Creation of a strong Euro pean defense army moved an other step toward reality at the conclusion of a successful meet--4ng of North Atlantic treaty na tions at Lisbon. Foreign, defense and finance ministers agreed on creation of a 50-division army -under Gen. Dwight D. Eisen hower, agreed on participation of German forces in the army and on the financial burden Germany must bear, and ad mitted Greece and Turkey into the defensive alliance. , 2.

The United States and Ja pan agreed on the establishment of United States air, naval and army bases in Japan for the de fense of Japan and as a barrier to further Communist expansion in the Pacific. THE BAD 1. Three issues remained un settled in the Korean truce talks, and two of them could delay peace indefinitely since neither was capable of compromise. The Allies were standing firm - on their insistence that prisoners of war have the right to decide where they will go after release, and on their refusal to accept Russia as a "neutral" in the war. 2. French forces in Indo-China abandoned the fortress of Hoa Binh, some 40 miles to the south west of Hanoi, and set up a de fensive ring around Hanoi and its port of Haiphong. However, there were indications the French eventually would aban don the whole of northern Indo China and set up a new defense line across the 150-mile waist of the country to protect the rich rice-producing delta of the Me kong river. 3. Russia reacted as expected to results of the Lisbon NATO meeting. The first outward sign was her note to Italy denouncing Italy's move cancelling her peace treaty with Russia and her par ticipation in the Atlantic pact.

He yawns every five minutes, and is en couraged' by that. He thinks it's a' big improvemenut over the early days of January, 'when he was yawning every two seconds." I THINK maybe I know what's 'wrong with him. HE'S BEEN READING THE NEWS. Gener ally speaking, it has been that kind of news. I know, because I've been reading it myself. I've been doing a lot of yawn ing. - . - . "FOR your own good, Lloyd, I hope you read this brief dis patch which has just come over the teletype: - ."Senator Russell of Georgia announced today he will seek the . Democratic nomination for president . . . He cast himself as a 'Jeffersonian Democrat who believes IN THE GREATEST PRACTICABLE DEGREE OF LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT." That, Lloyd, is NEWS. It, ought to stop your yawns for. at least an hour. WHY is it news? Well, here is a good man who announces himself as a can didate for president and then puts his finger on the thing that in. the past couple of decades has led us FARTHEST ASTRAY FROM THE AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE as the Founding Fath ers envisioned it. Our ancestors were wise. They wanted government kept CLOSE AT HOME, where they could watch it and control it. They started, in New England, with the town meeting. The town meeting was governed on a scale that could be handled by the people. But, gradually, population spread beyond the villages. When that came about, there were COUNTRY people as well as TOWN people. They were en titled to their share of the say in government. So we extended the scope of government to include the COURT HOUSE. In time, as we continued to grow, we widened our circle to include the STATE HOUSE. The WIEIIfJG REPERTORY Lithia Theatre, Ashland, Or.

It is true that one of our first acts as a new-born nation was to create a NATIONAL government. But, in our thinking, we limited its powers sharply. We gave it con trol of foreign relations and for eign policy and NATIONAL DEFENSE. We . permitted it to levy tariff duties -partly to pro tect ' our youthful industries against foreign competition and partly to enable our national government to finance itself. We gave it a . few more modest powers. . . But . there we stopped. . .We were inherently suspicious of BIG government. . We wanted government . kept close enough to us so that we could handle it. THAT was the root of our thinking until the REVOLU TION OF THE 1930s, which arose out' of the Great Depres sion and was spearheaded by the New Deal. In the course of time a sur prisingly SHORT time the New Deal moved the court houses" and the state houses to Washington. The result of it has been to move the bulk of government so far from the people that they no longer can control it. TN RECENT vein. I think I must have heard 10,000 peo ple say:; "I don't like what's go ing on, BUT WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT IT? WHAT can ONE PERSON do?" It is true that when the bulk of our government ii centered in Washington one person can't do very much. Washington is so big and so remote and so im personal that one person simply can't do much there. But in the old days, when the bulk of government was wisely held close at home, in the city halls, the court houses and the state houses, even one person could do quite a lot and a dozen persons could always make them selves heard. Government was then close enough to the source so that it could be handled by the peo ple. Now it is so far away that it RUNS the people. CJO, AS one individual, I'm ira- - mensely impressed by Sen ator Russell's statement that he believes in the greatest prac ticable degree of local self-gov ernment. All in all, I think that is the best platform that has yet been advanced by ANY candi date for the presidency.

Huzlock As We Live THERE'S MO SUCH THING AS A -MAGICAL INSIGHT Do you feel that you have a magical insight which helps you to meet any problem success fully? II you believe this, you're wrong because there is no such thing as a "magical in sight". You may act on hunches and you may have been lucky that your hunches are more- often right. But, again, you do not have a magical power. All that insight is the abil ity to make use of what you have learned in the past, from successful and unsuccessful ex periences. This you have applied to new problems which are like the old, in part at least. Anyone can have this same ability if he wishes to develop it. And It is worth developing because it will save much time and effort, as well as bring worthwhile results. Here is what you must do: 1. Analyze a new problem to see ii it nas anytning at ail in common with problems you have met in the past or prob lems that your friends have met. 2. Then, after you make this preliminary survey, try to re call just how you or others han dled the problems that were similar to this one, and what the results were Apply Sama Techniques 3. When possible, apply the same techniques to the new problem that proved to be suc cessful in the past. When, on the other hand, the method you used in the past worked out dis astrously, change your tactics. Don't be foolish and make the same mistake twice in the blind hope that this will be different. 4. Don't hesitate to talk over your problem with . someone Jy ELIZABETH HURLOCK. PH.D. whose opinion you value. Seeing a matter through the eyes of another person often helps you to see it in an entirely different light 5. Because insight is more valuable when based on many experiences than when based on just a few, build up a storehouse of memories of past experiences and keep them in a state of readiness for immediate use. Be fore you file away in the store house of your memory any problem, , take time off to analyze it and see if you might have handled it : . better: This makes it more usable, should an occasion arise later for you to bring it out and use it. di-prob-analy nd ti rea youragt LETTERS FROM READERS Martyr Complex: "Our teen age daughter seems to feel that her father and I don't love bar. No matter what we do for her, she always seems to misinter pret it. This upsets us as we love her very, dearly." Troubled Mother. (A) Of course it is upsetting to parents to have a child feel that her parents do not love her. But, in the case of a teenager, this, is so common that it is not worth being upset about. Keep on treating your daughter kindly, no matter what she says and does. As time goes on and she gets a better perspective on life, she will realize that you are not the cruel, heartless par ents she now thinks you are. Size of Family: "I have al ways wanted a large family but. my husband feels that we can not afford more children than we now have. Do you think money should be taken into con sideration in such matters?" Questioning Wife (A) Yes, I do think you should be practical and consider wheth er you can afford a large family.

Isn't it better to equip a few children for a successful life than to have a large number of children so poorly equipped that they are. almost failures from the start? Young .Marriages: "Our . 18 year old daughter, who is a freshman in college, wants to marry a boy who is a freshman also. She is our only child and, if we refuse to give 'our permit wa are afraid we will lose her. What shall we do? (A) In a case like; this, I rec ommend that your husband have a serious talk with this boy and ask him what his prospects are, just as fathers did a generation or two ago. I he doesn't already know it, he must be told that one cannot live on love alone and that it is a man's responsi bility to assu.ne the support .of his wife. This should have a very sobering effect on. the young people. (Copyright, 1952, - General Features Corp.)
