MAIL TRIBUNE
A New
Out of the mass of so-called "news releases" which
pass over the desk each day, we recently picked one
which could have real significance.
It was entitled "New Process Halts Stream Pollu
tion Economically by Converting Organic Waste Mat
ter into Power."
It starts out:
An important new discovery that' promises to overcome,
ginglehanded, three enemies of American industry stream
pollution, high power costs and waste disposal has been
perfected.
MOW we have no way of knowing just how good this
A process is, or how well
how economical a procedure it involves.
But we do know that if it does these three things,
and does them well and at a relatively moderate cost,
it is a really important discovery, with vast potential
ities for good in the Pacific northwest, as well as other
parts of the country.
For the three problems which the process would
solve (if it is as good as itssponsors say it is) are
among the most important we face today.
"THE process, the released states, "takes aqueous
waste containing organic matter and, by f lameless
combustion, 'burns' it in the presence of oxygen . . ."
The heat can be used to produce power, the organic
waste products in the water are removed, and at the
same time inorganic wastes can be recovered for reuse
if desirable.
The process may even turn out to provide some
cities with a cheaper method of sewage disposal than
the present type of sewage disposal plants, which are
extremely expensive.
One American company has a pilot plant in opera
tion which eliminated stream pollution' caused by or
ganic wastes in the production of paper, and which
recovered between 92 and 96 per cent of the valuable
inorganic chemicals m the wastes.
TPHE first large-scale application of the process,
which is named after its inventor, Frederick J.
Zimmerman, will be made by a big Norwegian paper
company. It plans to build a $3,000,000 plant to con
vert waste pulp liquors into steam, which it will use
in the operation of its mills.
In Oregon, where so much of the economy is based
on wood products, and increasingly on pulp and other
processed wood products, and where power supplies
are running short, a process such as that described
could have a real bearing on the future. E.A.
Lemurians?
It is highly probable that we would not recognize
a Lemurian if we happened across one. It was only re
cently, in fact, that we learned a "Lemurian" is (or
might be) a descendant of the race which once occu
pied Lemuria, the hypothetical "lost continent" of the
Pacific a sort of western counterpart of Atlantis.
We have been apprised of this in recent months in
connection with a series of "expeditions" planned by
a Yreka man to investigate mysterious lights, foot
prints, ruins,- et al, on the slopes of Mt. Shasta.
WE make no secret of our scepticism regarding this
unfovm-ica M a olcn novo tr arlrmr tn a nntiaiVilv
warped sense of attraction to the wierd, the bizarre,
the unexplained.
The most recent communique from the expeditions,
led by a newspaperman named John W. Chamberlin,
said a group was to leave Sunday "seeking old ruins on
Mt. Shasta which may indicate that an ancient race
formerly lived on the mountain. Recently, report made
of a fresh trail of giant footprints found high up on
the mountain aroused interest among scientists and
other persons." It added that a follow-up story, pos
sibly with pictures, could be expected Monday or Tues
day. We can hardly wait. E. A.
Fine
The difference between getting a parking ticket
in Medford and getting a parking ticket in Salem is
that in Salem it's easier to pay the 50 cent penalty.
On the streets where there are parking meters in
Salem, there are also boxes, about one to a block, in
which the familiar orange envelope with its pink tick
et and a four-bit piece can be deposited. The little
city of Newburg recently adopted the plan.
WE do not at the moment advocate such "progress"
for Medford, because the addition of the fine
boxes would cost money, and the city of Medford is
short of money this year.
But we should like to suggest that it be considered
in the future for the convenience of those whose abil
ity to remember how long the parking meter has to
run is no better than ours. E.A.

LOOKING FORWARD
Washington This is evi
dently going to be a winter of
alarm, if not worse. The Middle
Eastern crisis,
with its strong
threat of a
new Arab- Is
raeli war, has
already caught

plomacy be
tween wind
and water.
And in the in
ner rooms of
the Adminis
tration, the
Joseph Also
likelihood of a new Far Eastern
crisis in February or March is
already being nervously discuss
ed. On this point, it is understood,
the astute U. S. Ambassador to
Moscow, Charles E. Bohlen, had
something to say before he left
for the current disastrous meet
ing at Geneva. It was part of a
thoughtful analysis of the rela
tions between the Soviet Union
and Communist China. This
analysis was given at the State
Department by Bohlen, but
aroused such interest that it is
being rather widely quoted.
With the great majority of
Western diplomats, Bohlen held
that the Soviets have consistent
ly sought to in
fluence their
Chinese junior
partners
toward a cau
tious policy.
But he sug
g e s t e d, too,
that this mys
terious but vi
tal relation
ship between
the Kremlin
and the for
Stewart Alsop
bidden city might well resemble
the relationship between Imper
ial Germany and Imperial Aus
tria before the first World War'.
The parallel, if correct, is om
inous, because the central fact
of the old German-Austro-Hun-garian
alliance was the ultimate
ability of the Austrian junior
partner to commit the German
senior partner. In 1914, neither
the German Emperor, Wilhelm
II, nor the grandees of the
German General Staff at all de
sired a European war. But
without consulting the German
government, the Austro-Hungar-ian
government responded rash
ly to the assassination at Sera
jevo. The junior partner thus
became committed to fight. And
since the senior partner could
not permit the junior partner
to be destroyed, the senior part
ner had to fight, too.
It was precisely the realiza
tion that the Germans would
have to back them up in the
end, that encouraged the Aus
trians to be rash. And if this is in
fact the way the Chinese Com
munists look at their alliance
with the Soviets, then the
Kremlin's pleas for caution can
not be absolutely counted on to
enforce caution.
JT1HAT is one side of the medal.
-- The other side of the medal,
is the mass of information now
available about Chinese Com
munist military preparations in
the Formosa Strait region. This
is what causes a Far Eastern
crisis to be predicted for the
late winter or early spring.
These preparations take three
forms. First, the Chinese Com
munist Air Force, which has
been by fare the largest air force
in Asia for at least two years,
has been further strengthened
in recent months by new air
craft deliveries from the Soviet
Union. Details of this increase
of power are not available. But
it is stated to be on the order
of a 10 per cent increase. And
it is highly significant, since it
upsets the optimistic earlier
estimate that the Chinese had
stabilized their air power on a
level of about 1,900 aircraft.
Second,, the redeployment of
the Chinese Communist Air
Force to central and southern
Chinese bases has continued.
These are the bases that bear on
Formosa. If the obsolete World
War II planes of the Chinese Na
tionalists are not counted- in the
balance, the ratio of air power
between Nationalist and Com
munist was already on the ord
er of one to four in favor of the
Communists six months ago. De
spite subsequent deliveries of
jet fighters to Formosa, the ra
tio is probably even worse to
day. Third and most serious, en
ormous construction works are
going forward. These will make
possible the massive Chinese
Communist air attacks on the
disputed off-shore islands in the
Formosa Strait, Quemoy and
the Matsu chain.
In Fukien Province, within
point blank range of Quemoy
and Matsu, five jet airfields at
Nan Tai, Lung Tien, Ching
Yang, Lung Chi and Ching Hai,
have been built with utmost ur
gency. At least one of these, Nan
Tail near the port of Foochow,
is already operational. The rest
are in the final clean-up stage
or already semi-operational.
In addition, a vast labor force
has been recruited to build two
rail lines through the grim
mountains that surround Fukien
Province, in order to supply
these new Fukien airfields. One
is to have its terminus at Foo
chow, which is close to the Mat-
sus; and the other rail lines run
to the important second coastal
port, Amoy, whose harbor is
blocked by the Nationalist gar
rison at Quemoy. ( '
WORK on the rail lines is pro
ceeding night and day. They
will not be completed in the con
ventional m'anner by next win
ter. But they will be useable in
the way that the secret rail line
that supplied the Communists at
Dienbienphu was useable. In
other words, all the easy links
will be built, leaving only short
gaps over which men and mules
can carry the needed supplies.
Dienbienphu is proof enough
of the ability of the Commun
ists to move very large tonnages
in this manner.
All this means that in Febru
ary or March the Chinese Com
munists will have the capabil
ity of inaugurating an air block
ade of the Matsus and Quemoy.
Combined with heavy and con
tinuous shelling of these little
islands, a successful Commun
ist air blockade should be
enough to take the Nationalist
island positions. The urgency of
the work on the airfield and
rail lines suggests that this is
the Chinese Communist inten
tion. If so, the Eisenhower policy-makers
are going to be con
fronted with about the nastiest
choice they have yet had to
make.

poke. Answers follow questions.
Get rolling.
I. Mammals have three prin
cipal ways of adapting them
selves to winter's cold and scar
city of food and water hiberna
tion, migration, and making
bodily changes. Concerning the
following animals, which of the
statements are correct, which
false? (Ten each; 50.)
1. The longest mammalian hi
bernator, perhaps, is the ground
squirrel which has been known
to sleep for 33 weeks out of the
year's 52.
2. As winter sleepers go, bears
are light sleepers particularly
the Arctic polar bear.
3. A bird has never been
known to hibernate.
4. To keep warm, nonhiber
nating birds and mammals al
ways eat much more in winter
than in summer.
5. In a down-mountain migra
tion, a descent of 1,000 feet
elevation is equivalent to a
southward migration of approxi
mately 600 miles.
II. The blue whale,' also
known as the sulphur-bottom
whale, is perhaps the most as
tonishing of all animals, past
and present. To give him his
IM4-55
rightful due, study these state
ments and underscore those
which are true. (10 each: 30.)
1. The blue whale may weigh
over 300,000 pounds.
2. Although he may become
75 feet long within three years,
he started life from an egg
which was no larger than that
which produced the one-ounce
mouse.
3. The eye of the adult whale
is only slightly lareer than that
of a horse.
III. Many animals have de
veloped weird and at once won
derful defensive mechanisms.
Among them are: A. hollow
spines filled with venom; B.
quills tipped with fishhook-like
barbs; C. electric jolting ma
chines; D. pinchers; Match them
up correctly with the following
animals (five each, 20).
1. Hedgehog; 2. South -American
fresh-water eel; 3. Weaver
fish; 4. Crab.
ANSWERS: I. No. 3 and 4 is
false. A pair of poorwills have
been observed in a state of
winter hibernation. Also, most
birds and nonhibernating mam
mals eat much less in winter
than summer. Their mptaholism
rate goes down and they also
"ve on stored fat, in part.
H. All are correct.
III. The proper pairing is: 1.
Hedgehog with B., quills tipped
with fish-hook like barbs; 2.
South American
with C, an electric-jolting ma-
cmne; o. weaverfish with A.,
hollow spines filled with venom;
4. Crab with D., pinches.

Morse Laughing Stock?
To the Editor: In reply to
Harry Parsons' letter asking,
"Why all this continual yapping
and criticism about Senator
Wayne Morse changing politic
al parties? that this is our
right and privilege." I agree that
it is our right and privilege v to
change parties and even relig
ions, as Mr. Parsons points out.
However, our religious belief is
one of our basic Freedoms and
a completely personal problem
in which we are not represent
ing the people as an elected of
ficial on a party ballot.
Let us examine Senator
Morse's motive for changing
parties. Did he have a quarrel
with the basic policies or prin
ciples of the Republican party
which he had followed for many
years? No, this was not the case!
Wayne Morse deserted the Re
publican party in mid-term be
cause he felt he had been slight
ed at the 1952 Republican con
vention. In other words, he de
serted his party put of personal
pique. ' The American sense of
fair-play even in the sand lots
across the nation will not ap
prove of the youngster who goes
over to the other team because
he cannot be pitcher.
This point is further substan
tiated by the fact that he. did
not immediately change his reg
istration to Democrat, thereby
indicating his quarrel was not
with the principle, but chose the
innocuous rank of Independent.
Now, if by his action Mr. Morse
was indicating that he was above
"party responsibility" why did
not he remain in the Independ
ent rank? Because -he realized
that he could not be reelected
without one of the major par
ties supporting him. Remember
that he was very careful not to
change until after the 1954 elec
tion, although he was in Ore
gon campaigning for his prote
ge before the election, but made
a special trip with all the fan
fare, and no doubt at our ex
pense, to change to the Demo
cratic column last spring.
As a result of his will-o'-the-wisp
tactics, Mr. Morse has lost
the respect of his coUeagues in
the Senate, is the laughing
stock of Oregon throughout the
nation, and is the most ineffec
tive man that Oregon could pos
sibly have representing our
great State. I wonder where he
will go. when he gets mad at the
Democrats!

Asks Proper Penalties
To the Editor: We often read
of a person being found guilty
of an alleged offense and of the
sentence' imposed, being follow
ed by a suspension of all or part
of the fine andor period of im
prisonment. It would seem that
where the facts in a case indi
cate guilt and the imposition of
certain penalties that a suspen
sion of any part of the sentence
.is also a suspension of justice.
Too often a suspension of sen
tence prior to the serving of any
portion thereof does not rehab
ilitate an offender of the law but
serves only to make him more
cautious in the commission of
future offenses.
There are some people whom
a reprimand will correct but un

Former Labor Leader
Charged With Keeping

A. Oregon does not have one

showed that the armies of the
Roman Empire were not invinc
ible. It was a turning point in
history.
When the Western Allies de
cided that they must take the
calculated risk of rearming West
Germany to meet the threat of
Soviet Russian aggression, Blank
was given the task of preparing
for it.
First as defense commission
er, then since last June as
defense minister, Blank worked
out the organizational plans for
the streitkraefte.
He and his chief, Chancellor
Konrad Adenauer, have put
their prime emphasis on insurt
ing that the 500,000-man streit
kraefte is kept democratic-
On paper, its men are to be
civilian-soldiers, with none of
the stiffness and blind discipline
of the armies of the Kaiser and
of Adolf Hitler.
Fitted for Task 1
It would have been hard to
find a man better fitted for the
task than Blank.
He was one of the 10 children
of a cabinet maker. He went to
work as a carpenter at 14, and
later became a labor union lead
er. The Nazis retognized Blank
as a valuable man. They tried
hard to lure him into their labor
front. He refused. He was thrown
out of his union job and went
back to school to complete his
education.
At the outbreak of World War
II, Blank was drafted into the
army as a private. He was a
good soldier, as he had been a
good union leader, and was com
missioned an officer in the field
for gallantry. But in the army,
he grew to hate the Prussian
tradition bitterly.
Blank ' calls himself a "tough
Westphalia, bull-head." His hot
temper, and his use of strong
language, have caused his friends
as well as his enemies, to agree
that he is bull-headed.
But a man of good disposition
is not the one for Blank's job.
