' MAIL TRIBUNE Do Speeches Win Elections? Are campaign speeches a determing factor in a presidential election? The Republican party seems to think so. At least, according to our special operator in Washington, D. C, the GOP expects to spend $10, 000,000 on the Pacific coast to defeat public power candidates, a large portion of same will be used to defeat Senator Morse or try to. His figure may, or may not be correct. We don't vouch for it. But we have no doubt many millions will be spent and a large share of it to finance the cam paign against Oregon's senior Senator. Also a major share of that Morse portion will be spent for political speeches, from the platform, over the air via TV (and some we hope with the news papers). The point we are interested in, at the moment however, is just how effective campaign speeches by representatives of either party really are, when it comes to getting the votes and determining the result. Our idea, which we have held for some time, is that the actual vote-getting power of campaign speeches is, and for many years has been, consider ably over estimated. , CERTAINLY if speech-making were as determin- ing a factor as many of the professional politicians maintain, William Jennings Bryan would have been elected President twice and perhaps 3 times. For as an orator, a platform persuader, a star per former on the stump-speaking partisan circuit, Wil liam Jennings, in his prime, stood out head and shoulders above all his competitors. And the "Boy Orator actor, and a master of all trade, never failed to give honesty, sincerity and dedication to his political be liefs and principles so much so that many who went to hear him with their fingers crossed, came away with the same fingers blistered from the violence of their applause. In many cases the magnetic and oratorical spell, had spent its force by the time the voting booths were open or the final roll call in the convention had started, if the speech had been entirely a party one. But the effect at the time was tremendous. DON'T mean to suggest that campaign speeches have no effect, or deny that when they deal with new issues, or clarify old ones, present new facts, they, may make votes and change them many of them. But we do maintain that as such things go, the "run of the mill" table-thumping orations of the 100 partisans, regardless of their political label, have al ways had far less effect on the final decision of the voters than the political professionals have main tained, and have less today than ever before. The "give 'em hell" partisans like the "noise and fury" of course and yell for more. But they are going to vote for their party anyway. Only those who haven't decided how they are going to vote the Independ ents can be influenced by speech making, and unless the speaker affects their decision, he might, as far as any practical result have skipped the date and WE DON'T deny there is former President Truman and Governor Harriman of New York would take the contrary view, as would Senators Bridges and McCarthy of the opposing politi cal faction. But that happens to be our opinion and we believe if some student of political economy would take time off to do some careful researching, a mass of evidence to sustain the negative side of the question could be presented. Among other things it would be discovered, we believe, that it was not the "give 'em hell". speech making of President Truman that elected him in 1948, it was the ineffective speech making and unfor tunate personality of Tom Dewey in other words the American people didn't so much vote FOR Truman, as vote AGAINST Dewey. Not that campaign speeches don't make votes and sometimes lose them but they could, we believe, be eliminated entirely and the election results would seldom be changed materially. As for the 1952 campaign, we believe it was m spite of General Eisenhower's speeches instead of be cause of them, that he won such a decisive victory. The unknown genius who invented and circulated the brief slogan "We Like Ike" won that election with an "assist" from the fact that after 20 years of Democratic rule, the American rank and file wanted a change. THE beauty of such remarks as above is that no one can disprove them or prove them for that matter. They add up merely to an expression of opinion, which whether speech making really is the determin ing factor in presidential campaigns, or a waste of time and lung power, will we trust, remain free in this free democracy so long as elections endure.

Matter of Fact ey THE HIDDEN CRISIS Washington It is very lucky that the President is now grad ually resuming command of the American government; for a sort of hidden crisis of foreign pol icy is now go ing on that de mands a long series of Pres idential decis- ions of the gravest sort. There are two rea sons why this crisis has been hidden Joseph ALso from the coun- try thus far. The Eisenhower team has been trying desperately hard, first of all, to keep up the appearance of government - as - usual; and this could not be done, obviously, without deny ing the need for grave decisions which the President was in fact not ready to make. The other reason why the crisis has been hidden lies in the nature of the crisis itself. It is shapeless, amorphous, scattered. Superficially, it does not look like a crisis at all. It resem bles, rather an accumula t i b n of critical but local situations, without any unifying, over all pattern. The pattern is seen to be there, however, of the several situa tions that com pose the crisis Stewart Alsop are listed and analyzed together, item by item. Item one on the list, in alpha betical order, is Afghanistan. Soviet infiltration of the historic approach-route to India is now so deep that the Afghan govern ment has actually forbidden any foreigners but those approved by the Soviet Embassy to visit the richer and more important half of the country lying to the north of the Hindu Kush. The Afghans already have a mission in Prague, haggling for Soviet arms. When Krhushchev and Bulganin come home from India by way of Kabul, the Afghans are expected to accept a modi fied status as a Soviet satellite in return for economic and mil itary aid. ITEM TWO is Ecuador.' Offers of Soviet arms have' also been made to this small Latin Amer ican country that is involved in a bitter dispute with its larger neighbor, Peru. There is some evidence that an Ecuadorian mission has left secretly for Pragufe, to negotiate an arms purcHase agreement. The situa tion is regarded as sufficently serious to justify Henry Holland, the Assistant Secretary of State for Latin American Affairs, hur rying to Quito for talks with the Ecuadorian government. ITEM THREE is Egypt. Here the problem arises from the fact that the Soviets have offered to build the High Aswan Dam for the Egyptians, and to lend them no less than $600,000,000 on easy terms for this purpose. The deal, if it goes through, will give the Kremlin something close to a Today and By Walter THE SHORTAGE , OF EDUCATION II In a preceding article I argued that the White House Conference on Education which meets next week, should make definite recommen d a t i o n s on whether and on how Fed er aid should be given to education. There is a grave short age, which Walter Uppmann threatens to become much worse, in the supply of class rooms and of teachers. The class rooms can be built when the money is pro vided: the only question is whether all the necessary money can be provided by the states separately, or whether Federal contribution is required. The shortage of teachers calls also for more money to attract and to hold competent men and women. But money alone will not solve the problem. The arith metic of our rapidly growing population shows that by the conventional standards enough teachers cannot conceivably be found. The problem is set forth clearly in a pamphlet called "Teachers for Tomorrow," which is published by The Fund for The Advancement of Education, a creation of the Ford Founda tion. (I should say for the sake of the record that while I have had nothing to do with the prepa ration of the pamphlet, I am a member of the board of the fund which is responsible for the pamphlet.) TEW of us, myself included, have realized until recently how enormously and how sud denly the American birth rate i- - Joe and Stewart AIsop stranglehold on the Egyptian economy. But the alternative is for America to offer to build this gigantic dam on the Nile, with foreign aid funds plus a loan from the World Bank. For us the cost will be no less than $1,200,000,000, since our engi neering estimates are not polit ically shaded. And the situation is further complicated, by the Soviet-Egyptian arms deal, which has so inflamed the whole Middle East. Item four is Saudi Arabia. The Saudi Arabians also have an arms deal with the Soviets sim mering on the fire. Since their army is inconsiderable, the Saudi Arabian arms deal is not intrin sically serious. But it is strongly suspected that it carries a sub ordinate clause. If this suspicion is correct, the Saudi Arabian government will expel the Stra tegic Air Command from its biggest Middle Eastern airbase, Dhahran, when the airbase agreement comes up for re-negotiation next spring. THESE items are only a brief selection to illustrate the new ways the Soviets are playing the game they call "competitive co existence." Two different and novel de vices have now been adopted by the Kremlin. The first is to offer arms at bargain basement prices from the vast Soviet surplus stocks, to those countries where the arms will make the most trouble andor most effectively extend Soviet influence. The second device is a kind of parody of a leaf from our own book. The Soviets now have their own foreign aid program, typi fied by the High Aswan Dam pro ject. But there is nothing gov- ernessy about this program There is no nonsense about tell ing the aid-recipients that they cannot do this and must do that because it s all for your own good." Where aid is offered, only the Soviet political advantag is considered. The Soviet aid program is thought to be financed by the huge Soviet annual gold output, which the new masters of the Kremlin are too shrewd to go on hoarding as the old Georgian peasant Stalin hoarded it. Other manifestations of this program, in India and Burma for example. are soon to be expected. V IirHILE these new devices have ' been adopted, the old meth ods of underground infiltration and overt military pressure have not been abandoned. The prepar ations for an air blockade in the Formosa Strait are going for ward apace. The Communist in filtration in Malaya and Indo china has never abated. Even Thailand, once so closely allied with this country, is now report ed leaning towards neutralism In short the hidden crisis that is now going on is caused by far more intense, far bolder Soviet pushing into soft but strategic ally vital areas. How to hold the line for the free world is the Question the President must somehow answer. And, any effec tive answer will require this country to make much greater efforts and run much greater (C) 1955, New York Herald Tribune Inc. Tomorrow Lippmann is increasing. During the '40s the enrollments year by year in elementary schools remained steady at about 20,000,000 chil dren. This year the enrollment has jumped up to 29,000,000. But when the babies born in the past five years record-breaking years are ready for school, enrollment will be pushing 35,000,000. This means that for every 100 en rolled in elementary schools dur ing the '40s there will be 170 at the beginning of the '60s. The big increase in the secondary schools will come a little later, as the children grow older. By the end of the '60s, which is only four Presidential terms away, the children who have already been born will be enough to push sec ondary school enrollment up by more than 70 per cent of what it is today. The burden of the colleges will be still greater, in part because of -this increased birth rate and in, part because a growing pro portion of the young demand a college education. College en rollment will be double the pres ent number some time after 1966. ' w E COME now to what we metic of the Teacher Problem. Our present ratio of teachers to pupils is supposed to be one teacher for every thirty elemen tary pupils, one teacher for ev ery twenty-five secondary pu pils, and one teacher for every thirteen college pupils. To have enough teachers if the present teaching system is to be main tained it would be necessary to recruit by 1965 an additional half million elementary and sec ondary school teachers. For the colleges 'we shall by present standards need in the next fif teen years about double the num ber of existing teachers.

Against Ordinance To the Editor: Seventh-day Adventists as well as other liberty-loving citizens in the Med ford area are watching with tre mendous interest the outcome of a case involving the arrest of an Adventist minister in Gresham, Ore., on Nov. 8. Elder C. Lloyd Wyman, assistant pastor of the Gresham Adventist church, called on several homes offering Bibles and religious books for sale. He was arrested, as a test case, for violating the Green River ordinance which forbids door-to-door selling. We take the position that re ligion is the most sacred thing any person has, and that in America everyone should have the right to practice and teach religion without interference 'by any regulating ordinance. The Green River ordinance, which has been adopted by many towns and municipalities throughout the country, prohib its house-to-house soliciting for the sale of goods, and such so liciting of sales is declared to be a nuisance and punishable as a misdemeanor. Adventists con tend if this ordinance is made to apply to the conducting of re ligious work, such as the selling of Bibles, it is an infringement of the religious liberties guar anteed in the first amendment of the constitution of the United States. Many on this locality feel that no state or municipality has a right to enforce statutes or or dinances which interfere with the unrestricted propagation of the Christian faith, which is in harmony with the American way of life. Elder E. F. Coy, Pastor Seventh-day Adventist Church, Medford, Ore. Up To Judges To the Editor: We will soon observe another Safe Driving Day. Our local courts can great ly assist in making this, and every day, safer through the im position of more severe sentences for infraction of our traffic laws It is understood that we will not have 100 per cent compliance with all our laws, they are too complex for that and we do have an element in our midst that takes sadistic delight in flouting the rights of others. There are two basic methods by which our inconsiderate drivers can be penalized first by fines and second by imprison ment. In this day of high income and high expenditures a mini mum fine serves no good pur pose. Fines imposed should at number of teachers. We cannot hope to do so even when as we mustA-we have raised teachers1 salaries. The number of teachers needed will be one-half of all col lege graduates of every variety. At present one-fifth of all col lege graduates go into teaching. It just is not possible that in the next ten years one-half of all college graduates will go into teaching, that as many college graduates will go into teaching as go into all other professions and vocations combined. "TT WILL be impossible," says the Ford pamphlet, under the present pattern of teacher recruitment and teacher utiliza tion to secure anywhere near enough good teachers for our schools and colleges over the next fifteen years." It will be necessary, there fore, to find ways of enabling teachers to teach a larger num ber of pupils. The arithmetic of the situation allows no escape from this conclusion. That being the case, the ob vious remedy is to supply the qualified teachers with aids who can take over the housekeeping and clerical chores, leaving the teachers more time to teach. We shall have to apply to the teach ing profession the general prin ciple which Dael Wolfle, director of the Commission on Human Resources and Advanced Train ing, states as follows:' "A trained expert seldom" works alone. A lawyer has his clerks, an engi neer his draftsmen, a doctor his nurses a and technicians, a re search scholar his assistants. How much the expert accom plishes is partly determined by his own ability, but partly by the number and skill of his as sistants and by the effectiveness with which he uses these. Experiments along these lines are being conducted in a num ber of school systems and col leges. The results have been en couraging. But we are only at the beginning of what is bound to mean great changes in the sys tem and practice of teaching. I N THIS field the White House Conference is not called upon as it is on the question of Fed eral aid to make recommenda tions to the government. Here the problem belongs to the schools and colleges in the states, and any recommendations that come from the conference will be addressed to them. For the Federal government as such is not involved. (Copyright 1955, New York Herald Tribune, Inc.) the very least equal the cost of an evening in a beer parlor and imprisonment should be of suf ficient length to allow the male factor to meditate on the ser iousness of his offense against the rights and safety of others. Most people realize that laws are enacted to preserve our lib erties and privileges. Most of us are basically considerate of our fellow men, but those who lack this consideration must be taught that all are equal under the law and none hold special privilege. since the imposition of light fines and suspended sentences have proven to be of no good pur pose it would seem that the law violators in our midst must be taught to fear conviction and this can be done by imposing sen tences of greater severity. The, problem of securing re spect for our laws and for the rights of all, lies squarely in the laps of the judges of our trial courts. i Dan F. Krotz II, Chairman for Community Service, . Steelhead Post, VFW, Shady Cove, Ore. Pastured Out To the Editor: It's 12 miles east over the mountain, as the rookery-bound crow flies, to the old Climax country, 24 miles around by Camp White over a good but very roller-coaster type road, one-way in places It was quite a thriving commun ity up to some 40 years ago when 21 or more families had their homes in the fertile val ley and mountainside locations Evidence of them can still be seen in patches of yellowing grass where crops were once harvested. October green apple trees are brightened with colors of persimmon, their small hard fruits a great attraction for northward migrating bears when coming snow warns them to re treat for the long winter sleep, A lonely sun-blackened house or barn can be seen, gravity slow ly pulling them back to Mother Earth that gave them being, all disappearing under the en croaching forest of bearded fir and hemlock. Like Longfellow's Evangeline: "But where are the hearts beneath it gone are they, scattered like leaves ." For only three homes are there now, high at the end of the trail with water handy, adapting themselves to changed conditions. There seems to be three reasons for the exodus, so typical of many other locations in the west. Mainly, it is the lack of the heavy winter snows when one time, bed-ticks were robbed of straw to feed the starving stock.. And also the loss of the soaking, crop-insuring "June Rain," that marked a sharp de cline in 1916 on. Pioneers tell of waving fields of grain lands that must now be watered when riders stood high in stirrup or saddle, if good enough, to locate stock over-top, the wild grass. This brought on No reason when short pasture and growing herds of large stockmen over-ran the often poorly fenced lands of the hill people. "We wuz pastured out," as one griz zled old-timer put it. Then there was the "stickey," still stickily isolating these lonely homes when the rains come. Horses and wagon or two-wheeled cart could always make .it, even to unhitching and making home horseback, something' beyond the versatile capacity of the then popular Model T. But one thing is sure, where people have been. they 11 be there again. Increas ing population will demand it F. J. Clifford 1211 West Main st. Medford, Ore. Against Hospital, Highway io the Editor: It is true everv community needs adeauate hos pital facilities, but why must tax payers no wbe goaded into the expense ef building a stupen aous, colossal hospital project lor generations yet unborn to die in when so many other things are needed to live in and enjoy now. For just a fraction of what is to be raised for the hospital we could have the much needed Girls Community Club build ing. And what has happened to the plans for the Armory which for Jackson County residents? were to include the Auditorium Why isn't it possible' to build the hospital adequate for the near future into additions or wings built as the need arose, as is done with school buildings? Why do the same men have such long vision in regard to hos pital an dbe so short sighted in regard to the Highway as now proposed. Why is there such secrecy; is it because as now proposed our beautiful Haw thorne park would still be jeo pardized? In case Sixth st. is opened would not the road go directly through swimming pool? And what about other streets connected to park entrances be ing, closed? And who wants a huge raised highway bordering one side of park, making a slum condition of a nice residential area? With all the bare land on either side of Medford why can't the long range vision be used on this project? How many tour ists stop and buy hardware and automobile parts when on a trip POTLUCK (By M-T Staff and Contributors) The staff member who usually assembles Potluck was out of town part of last week, and did n't put the thumb-screws on the rest of the staff sufficiently tightly to amass the usual amount of trivia for publication in this column. All in all, it's been quite a week for members of the news staff. One was in the throes (and the word is used advisedly) of getting a daughter married. An other was winding up affairs and leaving for a new job. Another was getting ready to assume new and added responsibilities. And all of them still on the job filled in to make up for the lack of those absent. ' ' 9 In the middle of it all came Thanksgiving, which gave' rise to the information that city fire- men, who are called out occa sionally to rescue cats or help residents who are locked out of their homes, had a new one to add to the miscellaneous file on Thanksgiving day. They were summoned to the Jackson school playground to free a small boy who had caught" his leg in a barbed wire fence. The firemen's report states that the youngster was "released without injury." One of the absent news staff members also was "released without injury" from an air plane which had engine trouble and had to return to the airport. Back on the ground a discreet count revealed there had been 13 passengers, which information gave palpitations to the staff member's wife until an extra passengers, the 14th, boarded at the last moment and made the second take-off a success. Everyone, for the good of his soul, ought to take an airplane flight sometime in his life. Some how, being high in the air, look ing far, far down on the things that usually loom so large, gives one a sense of perspective that no other experience can. - , Last week, when it was cloudy and hazy on the ground, the air at 9,000 feet was crystal clear and smooth. The sun was bright on the fleecy blanket of clouds below. And in the middle dis tance, the majestic, snowclad bulk of Mt. Shasta was an almost unbelievable vision of beauty, capped by its customary plume of cloud. . - As for weddings and wedding receptions, and such-like excite ment, these too are experiences in which everyone ought to par ticipa'.j, some way, at one time or another. The very special glow which lights the cheek of a bride, the half-embarassed pride of the groom, the combined ache of happiness and pain of the fam ilies involved these are a part of life which should be seen and savored and remembered. Any one with any spark of sensitivity realizes the high emo tional charge which fills the air at times such as these, and reacts to it. "A wedding is a special time in a person s life, something that can never be recreated. Perhaps this is why there is always a sense of loss at a wedding as well as the joy of watching two young; people starting what will, in reality, be a new life. Automobile Accidents Reported to Police Two automobile accidents, neither of them serious, were re ported to state police Friday evening. . ' One occurred on Highway 99 north of Medfeord, at about 7 p.m., and involved' cars driven by Lillie Margaret Oakes,' 5L,. 1111 Oak Grove rd., ana Charles .Rollin Pedigo, 40, Grants Pass. The other, at about 10:20 p.m. was at the intersec tion of Keene Way and Waver- ly, officers said, and involved cars driven by Benny Lee King, 20, Roseburg, and Jane Stuart Little, 37, of 1700 Lenora dr., Medford. No injuries were listed, and police said damage to all four cars was of a minor nature.
