NATIONAL EOITOIIAL I A6g MAIL TRIBUNE The Election Aftermath As someone has remarked, you can prove anything by statistics. - ; ' Well, so you can prove ALMOST anything by election returns. And both of the major parties are proving it, to their own satisfaction, at least. . : -THE Democrats got control of both houses of con- : gress, against the determined and super-charged opposition of the President, so it was a great victory for the former, and a stunning defeat for the latter. That is ONE view-point. MOST of the pre-election polls indicated a great " Democratic landslide, yet the Democrats barely squeeked in, the usual bye-election majorities were cut to the bone, the net result therefore, was a victory for President Eisenhower and the G.O.P., especially for that 11th hour sweep, by airplane. That is another viewpoint. So put up your money and take your choice. THE MAIL TRIBUNE refuses to add to the' con fusion by giving its interpretation except as to Oregon. . In fighting parlance in fact we would call it na tionally a "draw." THE; important thing as we see it, is not just what : happened on November 2nd in detail, but what is going to happen, in the immediate future. If rushing through that the Atomic Energy Commission so unceremoniously is a fair example, then there will be plentv of political fireworks in the next two in 60 days. Moreover Joe McCarthy wont be the man to set them off ! R.W.R. He Can't Win! The Mail Tribune two Senator McCarthy a dangerous man, using the Red menace as merely a means and "rule or ruin." Very few believed it then. But more have seen, the danger since the reveal ing army hearing, and more we are sure will see it before the present censure FOR it is quite apparent now that the Wisconsin demagogue isn't interested in the censure proceed ings per se. In lact he has gone out of his way to admit that there is no escaping such action the sen ate being what it is of course and the committee that voted censure, ditto! ,. r,r . j, . , . . ........ .. ..v.'".

No Alternative to Peace? A phrase of President Eisenhower's which has caught the popular fancy expresses an important truth. The phrase is: ( .: "There is no alternative to peace." What the President means is that in this atomic and hydrogen age, keeping the world at peace is more important than anything else could be; that to have another world war would mean world destruction to victor as well as vanquished global ruin. That is true. " But it is also true that it doesn't mean the policy of this country is or ever will be "peace at any price." And the danger is Soviet Russia, might make the mistake Hitler made and decide she can continue her policy of aggression unimpeded for Uncle Sam would be "too proud to fight." In other words, what every thinking person real izes or should is the necessity in our own self interest of avoiding war on a worldwide scale at (almost) any price. If that almost were overlooked it might prove an inadequate prevention of war, be cause of a mistake, not in this country, but the other side of the Atlantic, not . in American calculation but in Russian interpretation. CO we think it might be well if President Eisenhower would, when some opportune time comes around, make it clear that of course here IS an alternative to peace. In case of attack by an enemy power for ex ample or imminent danger of worloV conquest, and consequent destruction of our freedom then we would fight.

" --- -awWA AMAAWAAW U11U the American people as a ,1 . sooner man many observers ' Matter of Fact THE VENGEFUL DEMOCRATS Washington The genUy cool ing noises about harmony and unity which the Democratic leaders have been making should be al lowed to fool nobody. The fact is that the Democrats, cons ervatives and liberals alike, have blood in their eyes. ThpV TI7 O A Stewart Altop infuriated by the Republican line as it was developed by many Republican orators, notably Vice-President Nixon. In the Democratic view, the Democratic party was sland ered, if not quite as the party ux treason, at - least as the party of Com munism and War. "That wasn't a politi cal campaign," one hard hit Democrat has remarked, "it was a war of e x t e r m i n-, ation." If they can Jo,ePh Alsop only hang on to their control of the Senate, the Democrats fully expect to enjoy the sweet taste of revenge. Revenge is to take the form of washing every scrap of Republican dirty linen in the most public possible way. In this process, of course, the Democrats expect the usual as sist from Sen. Joseph R. Mc Carthy land his dwindling band. But if they retain control of the committees, the Democrats expect to do most of the linen washing themselves. In the words of one Democratic strate gist, "We'll investigate the living daylights out of the Republi cans." Here, then, is an incom plete list of the investigations now being planned: ONE: "The numbers racket." The Republicans' campaign use of the firing of "security risks" really got under Democratic skins. More than anything else, it lent a certain air of solid sta tistical validity to the Republi can charges of Democratic "soft ness on Communism." JUST , because It hurt so much, the Democrats are especially thirsty for revenge on this score Their plans for achieving re venge are elaborate and inter esting, and merit a further re port. Here it is enough to say that the Civil Service Commit tee,, under Sen. Olin Johnston of South Carolina, is expected to undertake a full dress review of the . whole government se curity program. The purpose, of course, wiU be to prove that Republican claims of having found the government crawling with subversives are phony. '.' TWO: Dixon-Yates. The Joint Committee on Atomic Energy wttl put under the microscope the role of the Atomic Energy Commission in the business of the Dixon-Yates contract. Rep. W. Sterling Cole, chairman of the committee in the 83rd Con gress, has been an avid admirer of A.E.C. Chairman Lewis Strauss. The prospective com mittee chairman, Seh. Clinton Anderson, has no such chummy relatidhship with Strauss, and Strauss may be asked some em barrassing questions. THREE: Dixon -Yates again, but from another angle, the pub lic utilities angle. What is in prospect is an investigation, not only of Messrs. Dixon and Yates and their companies, but of the public utilities as a whole. If it comes off, this investigation is likely to be undertaken by the anti-monopoly sub-committee of the Judiciary Committee, with the ambitious Sen. Estes Kefauv er playing the leading role. This possibility is at least real enough so that Messrs. Dixon and Yates are said to be most unpopular among their fellow public utility men. FOUR: The Brownell-Rover- Youngdahl affair. United States Attorney Leo Rover's unprece dented action in asking Judge Youngdahl to disqualify himself in the case 01 Owen Lattimore may-be the subject of another Judiciary Committee inquiry. The main target in this case wiU be Attorney General Her bert Brownell, much unloved by Democrats since the Harrv TW- ter White affair. FIVE: The old Truman sub committee of the Armed Services Committee is likely to be rein- vigorated, for a good look at de fense contracts especially the contracts let to General Motors. There will also be investigations of defense waste, the pumose being to prove that Charles E. Wilson and his Republican col leagues in the Defense Depart ment have no monopoly on ef ficiency. "Don't you worry." one Democrat has remarked, "we'U find plenty of oyster forks." , SIX: An investigation of unfair Tinlitiral nrarticec ie o1ci- v ing seriously considered. The Democrats' exhibit A in this con nection is a recording, sent out by the National Republican Cam paign Committee, in which a mysterious gentleman says in a marvelous fake-Russian accent: Defeat the Republican Congres sional candidates in 1954. That is our order from Moscow. Re- c 1 .ii ii mm m B Jottph and Stewart Atop turn America to a New Deal type administration. Moscow orders that!" - AU in all, (the Democrats in tend to show the Republicans that they are still the unchal lenged masters of the techniques of investigation-for-political-pur-poses. After aU, the Democrats first brought this technique to a peak of perfection way back in the '30s, when Joseph R. Mc Carthy was not long out of knee pants. i s : , (Copyright, 1954, New York Herald Tribune, Inc.) In the Day's Hews By FRANK JENKINS Political checkers as played in Washington: GOP Senator Homer Capehart of Indiana says he will propose that the senate put off UNTIL JANUARY a vote on the Mc Carthy censure resolution. Democratic Senator Henry Jackson of the state of Wash ington promptly arises in his place to predict that if such a resolution is introduced it will be voted down quickly. TffHY does Republican Cape- hart suggest postponement of the McCarthy censure reso lution? It's as simple as pic. He'd like to dodge responsibil ity for either censuring or refus ing to censure the highly contro versial senator from Wisconsin. WHY does Democrat (and New Dealer) Jackson so prompUy proclaim that such a resolution, if introduced in the present spe cial session of the Senate, wiU be voted down pronto? It's equally simple. The senate, as convened now in special session, is a REPUB LICAN senate. It wiU have to take the responsibility for what ever is done now about Mc Carthy. The senate that will as semble in January will be a DEMOCRATIC senate. So what ever it did about McCarthy would be a Democratic respon sibility. That's the long and the short of it. I THINK perhaps a lesson of ereat nntential imnortance emerged from the recent politi cal campaign. It was provided by Secretary of Agriculture Ben son. Secretary Benson, away back at the beginning, laid down the line that fixed high supports for certain basic farm crops are economically unsound and must eventuaUy cripple, if not com pletely wreck, American agri culture. He proposed instead a system of sliding supports that could be lowered when overpro duction threatens and raised in the case of underproduction. That was his line, and it was based upon strong personal con viction. He hewed to it and let the chips fall where they might. 1ITEAK - KNEED Re pu blicans ' shook in their boots. They thought that Benson's course was suicidal and expected it to re sult in the loss of aU the farm states. As . it turned dut. the Republicans did better in the xarm states man elsewhere. Uhy; This, I think, is the rea son: Our neonle instinctivelv ad mire and respect men who have sincere convictions and the cour age to fifiht for them. Whether they know it or not, they are coming to despise pussytooters who can think only in terms of votes. Fthe Republican party wants to win the 1956 election which will go far toward de termining whether our country is to continue along the Eisen hower middle-of-the-road course or is to turn sharply toward BIG GOVERNMENT it will do weU to heed this lesson provided by Secretary Benson. ' If it believes in moderate, mod ern, regulated free enterprise, it should SAY SO, in flat, plain words and stick with it, through thick and thin.

So keen is the unending strug gle for existence that animals have taken over every hospit able half-acre of the world's sur face, the most rugged perhaps being the wind-ripped mountain slopes between timberline and snowline. Yet to survive the onslaughts of winter, these animals are wondrously flexible; some go into a deep torpor and let their bodies grow cold; others evade the weather by taking" seasonal, timeless migratory routes; while a number conform to the sur roundings by actual bodily changes. . " Nowhere do mammals exhibit a greater seasonal migration than in the high mountain count ty. Elk, sheep, mountain goat, llama, chamois and deer des cend the slopes to warmer lev els where food is stiU available. (The migration being near-vertical every 1,000 feet descent in altitude is equivalent to a 600 mile southward migration.) And these plant-eating animals are followed in turn by the large predaceous beasts the foxes, wolves, cougars and -snow leo pards. Upland birds also seek lower and warmer levels this move ment being precisely comparable to the , southward flight of the migratory birds from Canada to Mexico and from England to Africa. In the former, the move ment is again measured in feet: in the latter in miles. .Others hie themselves into protected places and become dor mant. Let the blizzards howl and the food crop disappear, they sleep through it aU. Their pulse and breathing almost stop and temperatures may drop to with in a couple of degrees of freezing thus, strength is conserved. Burrowing .Impossible Where the soil is permanently frozen beneath the level reached by summer thaws, burrowing cannot take place, hence small tunnelers remain active under the warm blanket of snow eking out - an existence from stored food, foots, and frozen insects, spiders, reptiles, frogs and toads which pass through the cold period in winter sleep. Now we come to the physical adaptations. One of the most ob vious is to withstand the cold by growing a heavier, shaggier coat of fur and this they do. As a result, wolves and foxes of the highlands have much thicker fur than those of the warmer low lands. And with it, their paws are grown with stiffer and longer hair for easier traversing of snow fields. Why this? Curious as it may seem at first thought, a larger animal offers less body surface for its bulk than a smaller one. Harkening back to geometry, re member how a sphere s surface becomes smaller proportionately to its bulk as it becomes larger? Appendages Smaller As for the appendages, they become smaUer in the north so less surface is exposed. Hence, rabbits' ears become much smaller as one pursues . them from temperate into Arctic climes. In an experiment to prove these points, mice were reared al a temperature of 85 degrees and they were found to have longer tails than those of the same strain reared in colder 65 degree temperature. Along with it, the latter had larger and stockier and decidedly heavier bodies. . In another experiment, domes tic fowl were kept at 52 degrees during the third and fourth months of life. Measurements Pluto, Distant World By J. HUGH PRUETT Astronomer,-Extension Division ' Oregon Higher Education System What appeal is there for you to live on a world so very, very distant from the . sun that the light and heat reaching it is only a dreary 11600 of that which makes our earth such a genial habitation? Such a place is the planet Pluto, at the far away bor ders of our known solar system, An eighth-grade girl recently wrote for data on this planet to use in a class report. We repeat some of this here for the general reader. Appeared On Photographs Before 1930 Pluto was not known visually nor photograph ically. It is true that since then it has been shown that this plan et appeared on photographs tak en in 1914, 1919, 1921, and 1927, but no attention had been given it, or, if noticed at all, the dot was taken for a star. After the discovery of Nep tune in 1846, some light disturb ance seemed to exist in its mo tion. The disturbing element was suspected of being a still more distant planet. During the early part of the present century, Dr. Percival Lowell at the Flagstaff observatory in Arizona spent 10 years" of difficult mathematical calculation trying to determine where the new planet might be. Dr. Lowell died in 1916, long before the discovery" was made. ' In 1929 a new photographic telescope, especially fitted for i detecting faint objects, was in stalled at the Lowell observatory and put in charge of Clyde Tom baugh, a young and recently em cloved assistant. Alter weeks of By Eugene Bums Ranger-Naturalist showed they were shorter In body and had gained , more weight and had shorter legs and tails than did their former flock mates which were kept through out at 70 degrees. Yet another adaptation that of behavior must not go un noted; it is quite common to see a bird hide behind wind-breaking ledges or stones during a high wind. But in the windy plateau country of Tibet, some birds build a rampant of peb bles on the side of the nest, usu ally that is wjndward a similar pattern of behavior being fol lowed by various larks in Al geria, Palestine, and Iraq.

Search for Missing Navy Constellation Plane Discontinued Washington (U.R) The search for a Navy Constellation which disappeared over the At lantic Oct. 30 with 42 persons aboard was called off at sunset Thursday when no trace of the missing plane was found, the Navy announced Friday. " The search, one of the most mide-spread ever launched for a missing plane, was discontinued as a Navy court of inquiry con vened at the Patuxent, Md., Nav al Air Station to investigate the plane's disappearance. " Rear Adm. John M. Hoskins, fleet air commander at Quonset Point, R.I., was the presiding officer. Asks Constant Vigil The Navy said it has asked ships and planes passing through the area where the Constella tion was flying ' "to keep con stant vigils throughout their passage" for some trace of the plane. ; ': . -.V-"--'-xVice Adm. Laurence T. -Du-bose, Eastern Sea Frontier com mander in New York, said about 260' airplanes and 27 ships cov ered more than 1,000,000 square miles of ocean daily for 12 days in the search. More than 16,000 persons from the .Navy, Coast Guard and Air Force partici pated. The Constellation carried 32 Navy persons, eight civilians in cluding two wives and five chil dren of miliary personnel sta tioned overseas, and two Air Force men. .' work, success came. On a pic ture taken Jan. 25, 1930, a very faint dot was found which later photographs showed was mov ing. Excitement reigned at the observatory, .but no public an nouncement was made until sev en weeks has passed and many observations had been made. News Flashed to World , Then on March 13, the 75th anniversary of the birth of Dr. Lowell, and also the date in 1761 of the discovery of Uranus, the news was flashed to the world that a more distant planet than ever known before had been spotted. '. ' . Various designations were for a. time given the newly-found planet. Finally an English as tronomer teleeraohed tnat 1 1- year-old Venetia Burney of Ox ford had suggested the name Plutc from the mythological god of the underworld.' The name was at once adopted. For many vears. great uncer tainty existed as to the size of Pluto.. On March 20, 1950, Dr. Gerald Kuiper, using the new 200-inch telescope on a night when the air was especially steady and the "seeing'' excel lent, obtained results which seemed very reliable. The dia meter of this planet was found to be 0.46 that of the earth's, or 3600 miles, midway between that of Mercury and Mars. The mass of Pluto seems to be about one-tenth that of the earth. The average distance of Pluto from the sun is 39.5 times greater than the earth's 93,000,000 miles. Pluto requires 248.4 years to make a complete trip around old SoL i Pofluck By M-T Stiff and Contributor How-sillyan-we-get depart merit: , At a certain veterans' break fast last Thursday, 'alcoholic drinks, as per custom, were, being served.
