There are two births; the one

The other, when, two souls unite.
And we must count our life lrom

When you loved me, and I loved
you.
Then both of us were horn anew.

you propose to the charming girl
who became your wife? Or, did
she propose to you? I know of
a young fellow who, while sit

holding hands with his girl, slip
ped: an engagement ring on her
finger and asked, "Does it fit?"
That was his way of proposing.
Quite a romantic idea.

Here is something to tell the
minister when you go to church
on Sunday. The Rev. Thomas
Manton, Presbyterian preacher,
wrote 119 different sermons all
based on the 119th Psalm . . .
It should not be forgotten that
John Howard Payne, the man
who wrote "Home, Sweet
Home," w born in New York
City.
Old Neighborhood
New Yorker says he was born
and brought up in the Cherry
Hill section of Manhattan. That
is down by the Brooklyn Bridge,
around Franklin Square. Is one
of Manhattan's most celebrated
"old neighborhoods." Was the
locale of such popular songs of
the yesteryear as "The Old
Neighborhood," "Sunshine of
Paradise Alley," "Maggie Mur
phy's Home" and "The Side
walks of New York."
So They Say
The lucky number of Aries
(March 21-April 20) people is
nine. The way to win the af
fectionate regard of a Taurus
(April 2.1-May 21) female is to
sweep her off her feet. Don't
waste any time on a build up.
A Sagittarius man (November
23-December 22) favors a girl
who is hard to get. A young
woman who permits a man born
under that sign to kiss her on
the first date is making a grave
error. Even on the second date
the girl should struggle a little.
Or, so say the stargazers.
Unexpectant Mother
"Expectant" mothers are nu
merous. How about "unexpect
ant mothers?" As for example,
a 39 year old resident of Michi
gan who suddenly and unexpect
edly gave birth to child and
told the physician, "I had no
idea I was going to have a
baby." Her husband didn't ex
pect the approach of a blessed
event either. Must have been
quite a surprise party for him.
Wonder how he felt when his
wife phoned him at the office
and said, "Hurry home, honey,
I've just had a baby?" Guess
he didn't faint but he must have
staggered a little. "
In The Mail
During the past weeks I have
heard from my readers in
Smackover, Ark., Broken Bow,
Neb., Pysht, Wash., Peculiar,
Mo., O'Brien. Ore., and You Bet,
Calif., but not-from my reader
in Hungry , Horse, Mont. Wonder
what's happened to her? Maybe
she doesn't love me any. more.
Nixon Flies To Mexico
On Good Will Junket
Havana (U.R) Vice-president,
Richard M. Nixon flies
today to Mexico on the second
leg of his 7,500-mile goodwill
tour of Latin America and the
Caribbean.
Cuba was the first stop on
Nixon's tour which takes him to
10 Latin American countries and
two U. S. Caribbean possessions.
He arrived in Havana Sunday
from Washington.
Nixon predicted a "new era of
progress and prosperity" for
Cuba in an extemporaneous
address to the Cuban Congress
on the eve of his departure. The
packed chamber accorded him a
long ovation as he concluded by
saymg:
"In the years ahead the his
toric ties between our nation
will bring us nearer because to
gether there is nothing we can
not do, there is no enemy we
need fear.

McKay Agrees To
Liberalize Program
Of O&C Logging
By A. ROBERT SMITH
Mail Tribune Correspondent
Washington Secretary of In
terior Douglas McKay is confi
dent his department will be able
to revise O&C logging road
right-of-way regulations that
will be "reasonably satisfac
tory" to both large and small
timber operators who are at
odds owr the regulations.
McKay said in an interview
that the Bureau of Land Man
agement is now in the process
of " reviewing recommended
changes in the existing regula
tions which were proposed by
the O&C Advisory Board in
Oregon last month. The Senate
Interior Committee, upon re
quest of Sen. Richard L. Neu
berger (D-Ore.), has asked Mc
Kay to defer final action on the
new regulations until the sub
committee on public lands can
review them. Neuberger is a
member of that subcommittee.
Department 'Open Door'
"We are anxious to get the
best possible regulations," Mc
Kay said, adding that he was
perfectly willing to have Con
gress "investigate anything they
want in my department it's an
open door."
Neuberger charged that the
proposed changes, which have
not Ibeen made public here,
would "abandon the require
ment of reciprocal road-use
agreements as a condition prece
dent to granting right-of-way
and road use permits," and that
this would "seriously weaken
the policy of facilitating compe
tition for federal timber."
Both McKay and BLM offic
ials indicated the requirement
of reciprocal road-use agree
ments would not be abandoned
in the final revision of regula
tions. Two BLM "officials from
the Portland area office spent
last week here working over the
proposed regulations, making
certain changes.
tne official told this reporter
the reciprocal road-use clause
will not be dropped. McKay
said: "We are responsible to the
taxpayers to get the most we
can for the federal timber, so
we need access to it."
.The proposed changes were
drafted by a subcommittee of
the O&C Advisory Board, ap
proved after wrangling within
the board by an 8-4 vote and
submitted to BLM last month.
BLM is under no legal or admin
istrative obligation to act on the
recommendations, but it is the
declared intent of the Interior
Department to do so.
"There were things in the
recommendations that the de
partment could not go for," an
official said, explaining that
BLM has already revised them
and sent them back to members
of the 18-man O&C Advisory
Board for comment.
One proposed change which
BLM is understood to go along
with would be to require all
users of private access roads to
pay a rental charge to the
owner. Under existing regula
tions, only the cost of amortiz
ing the construction cost of the
road may be charged, after
which a nominal fee for main
tenance is permissable. .
Neuberger said his opposition
to the recommended changes
was based on a fear that com
petition would be reduced in
O&C timber sales to the dis
advantage of small loggers.
A BLM official said "the es
sential policy is that competi
tion must be facilitated" and
that this policy would not be
changed. He said a major diffi
culty with' existing regulations
is that they are so worded as to
cause differences even among
lawyers about their intent and
proper meaning.
"We want them put in every
day language that anyone can
understand," he added.
BLM Administrator Edward
Woozley is understood to favor
publishing the proposed new
regulations, after McKay has
approved them, and permitting
a nominal time for the filing of
any protests before they are
actually put into force. But
officials said this would not
likely occur "for some time."
House Bill Terminates
Vet Educational Aid
Salem (U.R) The Oregon
House yesterday passed a meas
ure terminating-the date, for the
state's program of educational
aid to World War II veterans at
Dec. 31, 1956.

land Democrat, was one of seven

not used their state benefits
might want to use them to get a
master's or doctor's degree after
using up federal benefits.
Rep. Robert J.V Jensen, Port
land Republican, said 7,400 vet
erans benefited from the pro
gram during the last two years.

For Rotary Club
New discoveries from the la
boratories of industry were de
scribed and demonstrated be-,
fore the Medford Rotary club
Tuesday at the Jackson hotel
in a presentation of the General
Motors "Review of Progress."
Mike Morrison and Robert
Gregory of General Motors re
search division, equipped with
miniature models of micro wave
pick-up towers, a small jet en
gine, chemicals and other equip
ment, gave a brief insight into
a future "amazing beyond be
lief." :
The progress in electronics
from Thomas Edison's phono
graph, a model of which was
demonstrated, to present sound
equipment made possible
through the discovery of the
vacuum tube and microphone,
was shown. The scientific prin
ciple of jet propulsion has been
known for 2,000 years but ap
plication to modern-day jet and
turbo-jet engines now used on
land, sea and in the air was
not realized until the science
of metalurgy was further ad
vanced,' Morrison told Rotarians.
A small jet engine with but
four pounds thrust developed
amazing power in -the demon
stration. Modern jet engines in
use can develop up to 10,000
pounds thrust.
General Motors laboratories
are now working with jet pro
pulsion engines for future auto
mobile, bus and truck use. The
GM model XP-21 and the tur-
bocruiser are now undergoing
tests.
Clifford Hanson, Rotary pro
gram chairman, introduced the
speakers.'
