Reserve Program Grows
- - ' -
Military reserve activity. is undergoing a sharp
upswing in tHe Medford area. It is in large part stimu
lated by the. 1955 Military Reserve act, which gives
young men a greater impetus to partake in reserve
programs. -
We were talking to Col. William Prentice, senior
Army reserve officer in the area, about the situation
the other day, and he pointed out that, military pre
paredness considerations aside, the enlarged program
will have a considerable economic effect in Medford,
as well.
The annual payroll of Army reserve units alone,
he said, will total nearly half a million dollars a year
a fairly substantial amount.. In all, nearly 500 men
will be engaged in the reserve program, with the pos
sibility of later increases. .'.
IN ALL, there will be five Army reserve units and
one Navy reserve unit, as well as Medford's two
National Guard companies. There is a possibility that
another unit, possibly Air Force, can be established
here. -
Four of the Army units are on an active, pay-earning
status; the other is a training unit composed of
about 15 officers who receive no pay, but who are con
stantly studying staff and command procedures to
keep themselves in readiness."
H
ERE is a description of
Headquarters and Headquarters company of the 417th ,
Aviation Engineering Brigade. Colonel Prentice will com
mand the unit, although the table of organization calls for
a brigadier general. The company calls for a complement of
29 officers, 6 warrant officers and 33 enlisted men, a total
of 118. The unit'3 task is to supervise and administer Army
construction battalions, as many as 10 of them possibly, or
a total of more than 10,000 men. The battalions' mission is
to construct and maintain air fields in support of the Air ,
Force.
Headquarters and Headquarters company, 2nd battalion,
413th Infantry regiment, 104th division. Maj. Robert A.
Elliott, as battalion commander, will also command the
company, which will consist of 125 to 150 men at full
strength. The battalion is composed of several rifle com
panies, which will be administered by the headquarters
outfit.
Company G, of the same battalion. Capt. Donald Gray
will be commanding officer, and will also have 125 to 150
men. Company G will be a rifle company.
Headquarters and Headquarters detachment, 382nd
Quartermaster battalion. This is a "carry-over" Unit, as the
other three are newly organized. It is commanded by Lt.
Col. Jack Hartley, who has 25 men in the detachment. Its
task is to serve as headquarters for between four and six -quartermaster
companies, up to 600 men.
The 6402nd Logistical command (training). This non-pay
unit is commanded by Col. Clifford O. Lovejoy, and is active
- principally in correspondence courses and other forms of
military study.
The only Navy unit is Naval reserve Electronics divi
sion 13-5. Commanding officer is Lt. Cmdr. John D. Sim
mons, who took over command last week from Cmdr. Rod
' 'ney Keating. There are 59 officers and men in the unit,
which is now at full strength.
j .... ,
TTHE Aviation Engineering Brigade will be activated
at ceremonies at the Medford High school audit
orium a week from tomorrow evening. The guests of
honor will include Maj. Gen. William F. Dean, win
ner of the Congressional Medal of Honor for his part
in the Korean conflict prior to his capture by the Red
Chinese, and Gov. Paul Patterson, as well as a num
ber of other military dignitaries, among them Maj.
Gen. Lamar Tooze, commanding general of the 104th
division. .
Colonel Prentice has explained that because
Medford is one of the major population centers of
this general area, three of the units are headquarters
organizations. The units they supervise will be scat
tered throughout southern Oregon and northern Cal
ifornia, and the local units themselves will draw on
a large territory to' fill their ranks.
THE colonel also said that, as "the word gets
around" about the various ways in which young
men can fulfill their military obligation, interest in
the reserve program is increasing.
Some of the options offer draft-exemption; others
offer varying length of active service. But all young
men, under the new program, will have a certain per
iod of reserve time to serve, and the units are there
fore virtually assured of a continuing supply of man
power. The reserve plan is one which contributes greatly
to national defense. In addition, it offers considerable
opportunities to young men of military age, in military
preparation, in pay, "in vocational skills, and in other
ways. "
We wish the units success in their tasks. E. A.
Sun Tan Pills
""IIHAT Won't they think of next" is about the most
" appropriate cliche we could think of when we
learned that doctors at. the, University of Oregon's
medical school have come up with a pill which is sup
posed to increase one's sun-tanning ability.
Having the kind of hide which burns and peels,
leaving only a few freckles, we welcome this gift of
science warmly.
1ITE are glad to report, however, that this discovery
was the bv-nroduct of research on other types of
bodily ills. With all the aches and pains that human
flesh is heir to, we would deplore tne tnougnt oi skiii
ed physicians devoting full time to development of
sun tan pills.

In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
Tragic note in the news:
Egyptians are giving thous
ands of dollars voluntarily to
buy arms and equipment for
Egypt's army.
A delegation of transport
workers from Alexandria hand
ed Premier Nasser a check for
2700 Egyptian pounds ($7749)
representing workers' wages for
one day.
Another worker sent $1.50,
suggesting it be used to buy soft
drinks for the crew of the first
ship bringing arms to Egypt.
WHY is that tragic?
" The answer is tragically
simple.
These poor devils of Egyptians
(90 per cent of whom are poverty
sincKen Deyona American ca
pacity for belief) are digging
into their pockets to buy guns
and ammunition that may be
used to help start another war
in the explosive Middle East. If
another war gets started in the
Middle East, it could spread into
another world war.
They'd FAR BETTER be put
ting their money into a United
Fund campaign as we're doing

things as CHARACTER BUILD

Cross, which is the ever-present
mother in time of dire need.
into care of needy and unfortun
ate children, intohealth agencies,
such as cancer and heart disease
research. And so on.
In Egypt, they're going to put
their money (some of it raised
under a system approximating
our payroll deduction plan) into
GUNS for another war.
If that isn't tragic, there is
no such thing as ' tragedy.
fNE more word:
v It is this willingness to put
our money into funds (such as
the United Fund) to make our
cpmmunities better places to live
in that makes America AMER
ICA.
It is willingness to put money
into guns, when people are starv
ing on every side with nobody
paying much attention, because
want and misery are accepted as
a part of life as it is lived there
that makes Egypt EGYPT.
"piCONOMIC note in the news:
-The U.S. department of
commerce reports that publicly
disclosed cash divided payments
made by U.S. corporations in the
first eight months of this year
amounted to five and a half
BILLION dollars.
It adds:
This was a gain of 7V4 per
cent over the first eight months
of last year.
rpHAT raises an Interesting
question:
WHO OWNS AMERICA'S
CORPORATIONS?
rpHAT question can't be EX
ACTLY . answered because
there are thousands of little cor
porations whose stock, owner
ship isn't listed in existing
records that are available.
But the Brookings Institution
estimates that the total of indi
vidual share owners of publicly
owned corporations in this coun
try is now about 7,500,000. In
ah exhaustive study made in
1952 it was able to track down a
total of 6,490,000 persons who
own shares in America's better
known corporations.
It separated them into family
income groups, with this result:
Under $5000 income, 2,050,000J
people.
Five thousand dollars to $10,
000 income, 2,880,000 people.
Ten thousand dollars a year
and over, 1,560,000 people.
rpHAT is. the point:
America's corporations are
no longer owned by a few big
shots. They are owned by MIL
LIONS of Americans of all kinds.
This 5V billion dollar divid
ed income in the first eight
months of this year went into
the pockets of MILLIONS of
Americans who had been thrifty
enough to put their savings into
the stock of American corporations.
stepping and iron discipline have
been scrapped.
Every officer of the rank of
colonel and upward in the new
army is being rigidly screened
to keep out men of the war lord
type and former supporters of
Adolf Hitler.
Special Board Screens
The ' screening is being done
by a special appointments board,
made up of military men and
civilians, including members of
Parliament. .
aii appointments to senior
rank must be approved by the
cabinet.
In his latest move, Adenauer
has set up an eight-man civilian
defense council to wield supreme
authority in matter of both mill
tary and civil defense, including
appropriations.
Adenauer himself, who has
the complete trust of the Allies,
is chairman of the council. His
seven aides are senior cabinet
ministers.
All of them have excellent re
cords. Like Adenauer they are
working tor full European po
litical and economic cooperation,
All have a background of anti-
Nazism and anti - militarism.
Some of them were arrested on
suspicion of complicity in the
1944 bomb plot which nearly
enaed mtier s life.
For instance, the key man on
the defense council is Defense
Minister Theodor Blank. Short,
stocicy, hot-tempered, given to
using strong language, he is 54,
tin TTiii a -
wnen muer got in power in
1933 he was a local labor lead
er in the industrial Saar. The
Nazis at once threw him out,
He went to college to study en
gineering. He was drafted into
the army in 1939 and served six
years. He was promoted to first
lieutenant in the field for gal
lantry in action. In the army
Blank grew to detest Prussian
militarism. He is a firm believ
er in an army run on democratic
lines.
Arreste.d in Bomb Plot
Foreign Minister Heinrich Von
Brentano, 51, was an outspoken
anti-Nazi. A bachelor, a lawyer,
full of nervous energy, he was
one of those arrested after the
bomb plot.
Vice Chancellor Franz Bluech-
er is one of four Free Democratic
party men in Adenauer's coali
tion cabinet. He risked being
thrown out of his party last Feb
ruary because he backed Aden
auer in urging that Saarlanders
vote for a Europeanized status
in the plebiscite to be held Oct,

The other members of the new
council are Franz Josef Strauss.

THE NIXON CANDIDACY
Washington In the last fort
night, Republican leaders from
every corner of the United
States have been telephoning
"S or callins on
Vice- President
Richard Nixon,
either to as
sure him of
their support,
or to sound
out his inten
tions toward
the coming
p r e s i d ential
election.
Nixon has
Joseph Also
given them all
the same answer. According to
several firsthand reports, the
Nixon answer has run about as
follows:
"We all hope the President
will be well enough to run him
self. Even if he decides that he
can't run again, I think the party
ough to defer entirely to his
wishes, as I'm sure you agree.
So I don't want to talk about the
matter at all."
This answer to the eager poli
ticos is typical of the way Nixon
has h a n d led
the difficult
situation into
which the Pres
dent's illness
a u t omatically
plunged him.
He has not
only been loyal
to his chief.
He has also
been sure-footed
and digni
fied, which is
Stewart Alsop
an extremely difficult combina
tion, as anyone knows who has
tried to get over slippery ground
in a dignified manner.
But it is already transparent
ly obvious, of course, Hhat the
Vice-President will in fact be a
candidate ' for the Republican
nomination if the President, as
is virtually certain, decides he
must retire. Unless he is direct
ly encouraged by the President
himself, Nixon will not be an
active, avowed candidate, en
gaging in public delegate-hunts
in the manner of his great ene
my, California Gov. Goodwin
Knight. But Nixon will be a can
didate all the same.
Furthermore an assessment of
the Nixon assets and liabilities
clearly reveals that he is, as of
now, the leading candidate
among the Republicans. He
starts, of course, with one very
heavy handicap. If Gov. Knight
has anything to say about It,
and he will have a great deal,
no California delegates will be
carrying Nixon banners. .
"OUT Nixon can do what Gov.
Knight will have the great

obtain heavy support in other

still have a great deal to say
about what happens to the New
York delegation at San Fran
cisco.
How or when this link with
Dewey was established is not
quite certain. It may have come
about through Nixon's close per
sonal friendship with Deputy
Attorney General William P.
Rogers, who is the-chief politi
cal aide of the chief Dewey man
in the cabinet, Attorney Gen
eral Herbert Brownell. At any
rate, although Gov. Dewey is
abroad, people who invariably
reflect his - views are already
passing the word that "there's
no one but Nixon."
By the same tokenj almost all
members of the old Taft group
in the Republican party also re
gard Nixon as entirely accept
able, although they probably
feel more real enthusiasm for
Sen. Knowland. Almost the only
exceptions, interestingly enough
are Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy
and two or three of his fellow
extremists, who cannot forgive
the Vice-President for standing
by the President in the culmi
nating showdown in the Senate.
Finally, there Is no doubt at
all that Nixon also has the In
valuable asset of the President's
warm liking and admiration
.Whether Nixon will also have
the President's active support is
of course another question. Most
of those who know Eisenhower
best think the Republican lead
ers will be unable -to persuade
him to designate his successor.
although they will certainly try
to do so. And there may be other
voices to counsel other succes
sors in the White House.
None the less, when the list
of Nixon assets is added up, the
total is certainly impressive. In
view of the relative sparseness
of the Republican competition,
in fact, one would be inclined
to go out on a limb and predict
a Nixon nomination, if it were
not for one weak point.
As the President's principal
poli ticker, Nixon has unavoid
ably conveyed an image of him
self to the public that is strong
ly political; and nowadays the
way to succeed in politics seems
to be not to look like a politi
cian. Among many independent
voters, and even among certain
grouns of Republicans, Nixon is
decidedly unpopular, in a con
siderable degree because he has
done political errands that Eis
enhower wanted him to do.
rpHIS weakness of Nixon's has
-- shown up strongly, in turn
in the public opinion polls
These have so far shown that
whereas Adlai Stevenson would
be badly beaten by President
Eisenhower, Stevenson would
beat Nixon by a heavy majority
If , . Nixon - can proi ect a htmw
image of himself and he is sure
to try to do so the polls can of
course be exoected to change if
polls are to be relied on.
But if the polls go on saying
that Nixon is a loser, as they
said Sen. Taft was a loser, the
politicians are likely to end by
taking fright. And if that hap
oens, the politicians may ner-
haps stamoede to some dark
horse like the President's broth
er, Milton Eisenhower, or even
to Secretary of the Treasury
George Humphrey, who has
bee!n petting a good many ooliti-
cal telephone calls himself re

Down Thru Roof
GEO. N. TAYLOR
The crowd outside was so
great that the four who brought
the paralytic, tore back the roof
to let the man
down at Jesus
feet. Now hear
Jesus tell the
man, "Your
sins are forgiv
e n y o u." A t .
that the Goody
Goods sitting
all about, rea
soned as to
who can for
give sins ex
cept God him
self. These Goody Goods had
come to trap Jesus for claiming
to be the Son of God a claim
punishable by death among
those top men. But Jesus 'read
their thoughts and asked which
were easier to say? "Thy sins
be forgiven thee" or to say "Rise
up and walk." At that Jesus
proved Himself to be God by
telling the man to rise up and
walk. Later Christ died for the
sins He had forgiven the man.
And youTOReceive Christ into
your ' heart as dying for your
every sin. At that eternal life is
yours. Then be much in Bible
and prayer. So you grow Christ-
liKe.
