o- Wetintiday, September 28, 195S MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIVE Germany's Salesman Undertakes Difficult Diplomatic Sales Job By CHARLES M. McCANN United Press Correspondent Germany's "salesman of Eu rope" undertook a difficult dip lomatic sales Job in New York today. , Heinrich von Brentano, new West German foreign min ister, is the salesman.' He joined Secretary of State John Foster Dulles, British For eign Secretary . cuarles UcUoa xiaroia Al B C- Millan and French Foreign Min ster Antoine Pinay in talks on relations with Russia. The talks center on the nego flhtions to be held with Soviet Foreign Miniser Vyacheslav M. Molotov at the Big Four foreign ministers conference to be held in Geneva, Switzerland, on Oct. 27. Disarmament, a system of Eu ropean security and the unifica tion of Germany will be among the topics for discussion. But Brentano's big job is to ex plain and to justify the agree ments which his chief Chancel- I lor Konrad Adenauer made at the recent German-Russian con ference in Moscow. At the time, the State Depart m e n t said the agreements marked the abandonment by the Kremlin of its "bankrupt" Ger man policies. After thinking ihings over, however. Western diplomats seemed inclined to agree that for a diplomatic bankrupt the Krem lin had displayed some impres sive assets. Must Be Conv.r.ping If Brentano can convince the Big Three foreign ministers that Adenauer did win a victory for West Germany, he will show himself a good salesman. He is called the "salesman of Europe" for his long and untir ing work in the interest of Eu ropean unity toward which the Schumann Plan for a coal and steel pool was a start. Brentano is one of the able men who work in the dominat ing shadow of 79-year-old Ade nauer. Adenauer, who had long run the foreign ministry himself, turned the job over to Brentano on June 5. - In a sense, Brentano's visit to New York means that he has been freed1- from Adenauer's apron strings. He has long been known, to Europeropean diplomats. But he has worked quietly. He was floor leader in Parliament for Adenauer's Christian D e m o cratic Party of which he was co-founder when he was made foreign minister. Tall, broad-shouldered, with an intellectual forehead, Bren- Value of Chest X-Rays Shown by Illnesses Found Recent discoveries of cases of heart conditions, tuberculosis, lung cancer and other chest ail ments prove the value to the public and to individuals of hav ing a chest x-ray clinic available in the county, Dr. A. E. Merkel, county health officer, and L. O. Boomer, x-ray chairman for the Jackson County Public Health association, stated today. The cfiest x-ray clinic is open only at Sacred Heart hospital on Thursdays from 2 to 5 p.m. but plans are underway to reopen the Community hospital clinic later this fall, according to Boomer. "Although the clinics were established in the county less than a year ago, already five previously unknown cases of tu berculosis have been found and are under treatment, with sev eral others under observation and further tests," Dr. Merkel stated. "By far the largest .amount of pathology is found in heart con ditions and, here again, it is im portant to individuals since the conditons may be revealed in time for precautions to be taken," he continued. The x-ray clinic at Sacred Heart hospital is made available to the public- through the co operation of the hospital, the Jackson County Medical society, the health department and the county health association. Vol unteer help is furnished by mem bers of the Sacred Heart Hospi tal guild and Mrs. L. E. Duff, president, in charge. tano has an excellent record as a negotiator. He has a fine rec ord also as an anti-Nazi. His interests include art and literature. Now 51, he has eased up in his physical activities. He Injured Students. Reported Improving Corvallis (U.R) Four Ore gon State College students, in jured last Friday in an automo bile accident near here, were reported in improved condition today. Fred Kroush, former all-state basketball player at Marshfield high school, was listed in "ser ious" rather than "critical" con dition. Donald Bryan Watson, Portland, remained on the ser ious list but his condition was described as improved. James O'Brian, Albany, was in 'good condition, but still hospitalized. Phillip Harry Miller, Port land, has been released from the hospital. Dean Dibblee, Port land, another Oregon State stu dent, suffered tnly minor cuts and bruises in the one-car accident. used to be a good horseman, a good fencer and a good tennis player. Brentano is one of several men mentioned as a possible suc cessor to Adenauer. There is in increasing concern in Germany because Adenauer insists on run ning things himself. People point out how Winston Churchill groomed Anthony Eden, for the prime ministry. Whether Ade nauer has decided to groom Brentano as his successor re mains to be seen.
