In Tfie Day's News By FRANK JENKINS George Howson of 'Sacramen to, celebrating his 100th birth day, says he made one bad mis take in his long life. He quit work at 90. He added: "That's too young to retire. I'd have gone on working if peo ple weren't so touchy about hir ing old men." FOOD for thought: Maybe if the minimum wage fixed by law weren't so high, people wouldn't be so touchy about hiring old men. And han dicapped men. And old women. And handicapped women. Under our American system, it's quite all right to require by law that relatively high wages must be paid to able-bodied and competent workers. But I can't help wondering about older peo ple and handicapped people. If they could supplement their pen sions and their social security with a reasonable amount of work at moderate wages it seems probable they would be happier and better off and would live longer. SPEAKING of old men, there is Chancellor Adenauer of Ger many, who is going on 80. He is one of the world's great states men. He had an attack of bron chial pneumonia the other day that scared the free nations out of their boots and filled the Kremlin bosses with rosy hope. I'm glad Adenauer is able to go on working and I'm happy to learn that he appears to be re covering from his illness. BOUNCING back from old age to youth, you've probably noted that a large share of South ern Oregon's United Fund money will be expended for the support of youth traising and character building agencies. You may ask (particularly if you have no young children): "Why should I put up money for the support of youth training and character building agen cies?" - THIS is the best answer I can think of: It is the proud boast of the Boy Scouts that no Eagle Scout (Eagle Scout is the highest rank in Scouting) has ever been con victed of a crime involving moral turpitude. Character building like that PAYS OFF. It pays off for EVERYBODY. FROM the Eugene Register Guard: When France walked out of the United Nations in a fit of pique, this newspaper said France "picked up its doll rags and went home." Leafing through the exchanges, we note that the Coos Bay Times, same day, said France picked up its ball bat and went home. The Al bany Democrat-Herald, the same day, said France picked up its marbles and went home. II7ELL, if United Nations had ' voted to consider whether or not Alaska and Hawaii belong to the United States, or should be set up by UN as SEPARATE AND INDEPENDENT NA TIONS, we'd have picked up our tools and walked off the job. Let's add that phrase to the others. ALGERIA is a part of the French Republic. It is as much a part of France as Alaska and Hawaii are of the United States. It sends representatives to the French assembly, just as Alaska and Hawaii send repre sentatives to the U.S. congress. No American can blame France for walking out when United Nations (with all the Communist members supporting the motion) voted to consider whether or not Algeria should be divorced from the French Republic.
