,- .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. British and Egyptian repre
sentatives held preliminary talks
In an atmosphere which was the
xpost hopeful yet for eventual

settlement of the troublesome
Suez canal dispute.
3. 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.

Iii the Day's Hews
' By FRANK JENKINS
From La Grande:
"Lloyd A. Chandler, 52, who
started yawning with the new
year, is still at it. 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.

' v City .......... .
rTHERE, for a long, LONG
time, we stopped. 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.

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.

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.
In' the days when people lived
on farms, an .extra mouth to
feed was not the problem it is
today. Then,, too, children need
