But he will have his work cut out for him, warns the Ashland paper and to beat Oregon's senior sen ator he will need a lot of One reason cited for the strength of Senator Wayne Morse as a candidate for reelection is his cap acity (as well as that of for tireless campaigning and his ability to talk "about everything under the sun about it or not. 17E would be grateful to " ' campaign really starts it would name a few of the subjects upon which our Senior Senator likes to talk, whether he knows anything about them or doesn t.

There are always plenty the record will show, we believe, very few 11 any, who care to challenge his facts or deny his mastery of the subject as far as the reliability and extent of his in formation regarding it is concerned. 1M0RSE has conducted two campaigns in Oregon for ATX the Senate. He has never dodged an issue or re fused to give a direct answer to a -question from the floor or anywhere else. While there has often been disagreement with his conclusions, this is the first time, we. have ever heard it former Dean of the Oregon a complete grasp of the subject at hand, and did not know what, from his standpoint, he was talking about. THAT quality in fact is the Senator's great strength. And the one Governor Patterson will find as suming he is the Republican candidate the one most difficult to overcome. For Wayne Morse, whether one agrees or dis agrees with him, never has and, we predict, never will engage in any "double-talk," any make-believe, any pretense or do anything other than hit straight from the shoulder, make his charges plain and clear, and support same by citing the record and giving the facts. He has never been one to expect complete agree ment, or resent criticism. In fact he has always wel comed disagreement, in the hope that through the exchange of views and consequent clarification of his position, there would be a better understanding all around. We have a pious idea the Republican advisers to Governor Patterson realize all this, and that in next year's campaign while there may be heckling and name-calling, particularly along the traitor and turn coat line there will be precious little challenging of the factual basis for our Senior Senator's remarks, no matter where he may make them or on what subject. For unlike the Tidings they will , surely realize that to take this challenging line would be attacking our Senior Senator where he is strongest, and his op ponents would be most easily repulsed. R.W.R. A President Picks His Successor If President Eisenhower decides not to run again, will he be strictly hands-off as to his successor as Re publican presidential nominee? Or will he agree with party leaders warning him that he must pick his suc cessor to prevent the party from being torn asunder by bitter rivalries for the succession? The last previous time that a Republican president designated the heir apparent was 48 years ago, in 1907-8, when President Theodore Roosevelt tapped Secretary of War William Howard Taft. COR what the precedent may be worth today, T.R. had no trouble getting his man nominated. Taft received 702 of the 979 votes on the first ballot at the 1908 convention, the rest going to a handful of fav orite sons as an empty gesture of honor from their respective states. The election was a walkover, too, with most vot ers having become bored with William J. Bryan, Dem ocratic nominee for the third time. Though some of Taft's decisions while a federal judge, years before, had antagonized labor, he carried every non-Southern state except Colorado, Maryland, Nebraska and Nev ada ; the general verdict seemed to be : "If he's good enough for the President, he's good enough for me." Teddy not only lived to regret his action but be cause of the ultra-conservative record of Taft, he left the Republican party, formed the Progressive party and as its presidential candidate defeated his 1908 choice and elected Woodrow Wilson.

The Old Fox' Adenauer Earns Congratulations on 80th Year By CHARLES M. McCANK United Press Correspondent The old Fox, as he is called, is getting messages of congratu lation from all over the free world today. It is the 80th birth day of leather!-tough, pokelr- faced Konrad Ade nauer, chan cellor of the Federal R e- public of West Germany. caanes MccanD J. n e mes sages, from presidents and kings, prime ministers and foreign min Religion Still Held In Shackles in USSR By HELEN B. SHAFFER Washington Whether the chills of returning cold war will stiffen the Communist attitude toward religion will be disclosed in all likelihood in the early months of the new year. While the spirit of Geneva was in the making, the Kremlin sought earnestly to convince the western world that religious tol erance prevailed under Red rule. The Iron Curtain opened to per mit an unprecedented number of churchmen from western coun tries, including the United States, to visit freely in the Soviet Union and to observe re ligious activities there. An American Baptist leader, one of four members of his faith invited to the U.S.S.R. last sum mer, said" on his return to this country that Russians "certainly have full freedom of worship" even if they "do not have relig ious freedom the way we know it." A British Methodist who went to Russia in July remarked that Christians there had been living under "relaxed condi tions" since the death of Stalin, which proved that "some, kind of coexistence" of the Christian church and " atheistic Commun ism was possible. Arrests Fall Off Release from prison of sev eral Roman Catholic church dig nitaries in the satellite countries was attributed to pressure from the Kremlin. Meanwhile, new arrests of church leaders in the Soviet orbit have fallen off no ticeably. A year ago, in Novem ber, 1954, Communist Party chief Khruschev ordered anti- religious propagandists in the USSR to stop ridiculing the clergy and religious believers. In general, people in Com munist countries are free to wor ship as they please and the clergy suffers little interference in the conduct of services. How ever, religious activity beyond this rather narrow sphere is se verely restricted. The church has been stripped of most of its educational, charitable, and mis sionary functions and any resist ance to state regulations Is se verley punished. Communist attacks on religion have been aimed,, not at imme diate eradication of religion, but at rendering the church organi zations subservient to the Red political regimes. When this has been accomplished, the church is allowed a number of privi leges. Its benefits are won, how ever, at the cost of servility toward the state and other sacri fices. . ' Priests Take Oath In Czechoslovakia, largely Roman Catholic, priests must take an oath of loyalty to the "people's democracy" and the state defrays church expenses. In Poland a church-state agree ment provides freedom of wor ship in return for church sup port of the regime. In Bulgaria, where the Orthodox Church is known as "a national people's democratic church," a state bureau appoints all officials and a priests' trade union has been set up. The constitutions of Commu nist countries as a rule guaran tee "freedom of religion" and equal "freedom of anti-religious propaganda." Even in periods of relative good will toward the church, however, the campaign to guide children in Christian home to an atheistic way of life continues. The emphasis current ly is on "scientific" instruction Oregon Prunes Due To Gel Army Tesl Washington (U.R) Rep. Walter Norblad (R-Ore.) today said the Army and the Air Force have agreed to test Oregon prunes at the next meeting of the two services' joint menu board. Norblad said both services have purchased only ,sweet prunes grown in California, for many years, and have given no consideration to the tart variety raised in Oregon. The Oregon Republican said 'it would be a boost indeed" to Oregon orchards if specifica tions were changed to include the Oregon variety of prune. Highest Ohio river flood on record was in 1837. isters, are not mere formalities. They are warmly sincere. ' For to Adenauer, more than any other man, is due the fact that West Germany has become a bastion in the Allied defense against Communist aggression. It was on Sept. 15, 1949, that Adenauer was made chancellor. He was elected by his Parlia ment in Bonn, the West German capital, by a majority of one vote his own. How important that one vote was, it is difficult to realize. At that time West Germany, demoralized, 'was still digging out of the ruins of World War II. Booming Nation Under Adenauer's firm, far- in atheism, rather', than abuse of religion. Decree Hailed The Khrushchev decree on anti-religious propaganda was aimed primarily at over-zealous propagandists whose attacks on religion were so harsh that they threatened to antagonize rather than convince the faithful. The decree was widely hailed by churchmen in the West as an indication that the religious spirit had remained strong in the USSR despite more than a gen eration of oppression. A Russian Orthodox prelate recently estimated that 90 per cent of the 215 million people of Russia are faithful to God Approximately one-fourth of the population holds membership in the Orthodox church. There are 20 million Old Believers (an Orthodox dissident group), 20 million Moslems, three million Baptists, and an unknown num ber of adherents of the Jewish faith. The USSR has 20,000 Orthodox churches today, com pared with 46,000 in 1917. The Baptists have 5,400 churches There are relatively few Roman Catholic churches or Jewish synagogues.

More on Bird Count To the Editor: The recent edi torial comment on Bird Count by the Salem Oregon Statesman, printed in the Medford Mail Tribune on Jan. 1, seems worth more consideration. Probably most of us love birds, and many of us wish we had more and a greater variety of some of our feathered friends. However, anyone who has seen the starlings as they are in parts of Canada, Kansas and other mid-Western states, can but hope that our West Coast states . may te spared an epi demic - sized starling invasion. But starlings are here. Driving from Detroit to Wel lington, Canada, in 1939, thou sands oi starlings were seen. Fields of wheat shocks were lit erally black with starlings. At night the city trees were filled with the birds, and the air with their squawking, cackling bab ble. A double-barreled shotgun fired at random up into the trees brought 24 . starlings to earth. Walking beneath the trees was utterly dangerous, risking ruina tion to an Easter, or any other, bonnet. Sidewalks were awful. Similar conditions prevail- in Topeka, Kan., and other mid- West cities. Most everyone loves birds, but not starlings not by thousands Trained, a few might serve as political hecklers. In pie, they might surpass the "24 black birds baked in a pie." Perhaps a year-round open season, or a small bounty, might keep the starlings within bounds : their number bearable. Watch for the increase. Report a control. John E. Gribble, 139 Kenwood Ave., Medford,. Ore. Jap" as Bad as "Nigger"? To the Editor: Your recent ed itorial regarding Roosevelt and the war with Japan made inter esting reading, as your disserta tions always do, to my way of thinking, but the phrase "Jap War" in the head' still rankles. I trust you did not write that head and also that you will in struct whoever did write it to kindly drop the word "Jap" from his future journalistic ef forts while in the employ of the Mail Tribune. I cannot imagine you would ever be guilty of permitting the word "Nigger" to appear in print in your paper as long as you are editing it, and I think it is scarcely necessary for me to point out that "Jap" is an epithet in exactly the same category as "Nigger" and ' that its. usage is a direct slap in the face of every loyal American of Japanese an cestry resident in the Rogue valley and elsewhere. Grace N. Pearson, , Route 2, Box 50, Jacksonville, Ore. seeing leadership West Germany has become a sovereign nation. It has joined the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Its indus try is booming. It has attained the status of a world power. , And now, to start the new year, the first army, air force and navy men of what is to be the 500,000-man West German Streitkraef te striking force have gone into their barracks. To start the new year also, Adenauer has answered the threats and promises of the Kremlin by saying: - "Our place is with the free world of democracy, constitu tionality, social justice and so cial progress." East Germany remains under Communist rule, an enslaved satellite of Red Russia. How great is the difference between free West Germany and captive East Germany is shown by a few figures. Many Volunteers , Months ago more than 160, 000 men had volunteered for ser vice in the West German armed forces. Undoubtedly the entire 500,000 could be raised by vol unteer enlistment. During 1955, 4,286 members of the East German police army fled to West Germany. During 1955 also 271,000 Germans in. all crossed the frontier to the West. In four years, nearly 1,000,000 persons have done that out of a population of less than 18, 000,000. Adenauer, at 80, is still very much West Germany's strong man. Nearly six feet tall, he remains ramrod-straight. His face, with high cheek bones, shows his stern, indomitable character. , ' , ' He shows no sign that he is even thinking of retirement. He can still work harder than many men 20 years his junior. He has just recovered, with rapidity that astonished his doctors, from a bout of pneumonia. He cannot last forever. But when he does go, he will leave his monument in his strong, free country. In The Day's By FRANK JENKINS Morning after a holiday: The nation's motorists rolled up a record for New Year's traf fic deaths on the highways. An AP survey shows at least 345 killed. The previous high for a three-day New Year holiday was 317, set year before last. THERE are more people to -be killed. There are more cars to kill 'em. People haven't yet learned to use more caution and common sense TO KEEP FROM GETTING KILLED. VERSE AS polities: ...

I quite agree But there was an interesting side issue in the French, election. A stockily built French bookstore owner in his 30's, father of five chil dren, went out on his own and put on a slam-bang campaign against TAXES.. : He accused France's post-war governments of squandering bil lions collected " from taxes and "loans" from the U. S. Told that most of the ' American money was in the form of gifts, he re plied, "I DON'T BELIEVE IN FREE GIFTS." ' He added: "Our relations svith the Unit ed States are growing worse all the time and it's because there has come between our two friendly peoples this band of small-time cheats who went over and waved a scarecrow in front of the Americans and begged them-for money shame lessly."

Mayor Fred Peterson said he understood that PTC had offered to sell its equipment to Portland interests for $2,000,000. Howev er, Charles C. Bowen, vice-president of PTC, said no offer had yet been made. A spokesman for the bus driv ers union said members were enthusiastic over a proposal for each driver to lend a local tran sit firm $300 each to create a $300,000 fund for purchase of the line. The Portland city council has denied an extension of the PTC franchise until it is locally con trolled. Deadline for a new firm to take over is Jan. 31. M0ttQ f Of FQCt By Joe and Stewart Alsop GOING, GOING. GOING1 Washington The biggest, most disturbing feature of thei present world situation can be rather simply summed up. The United States is now losing its air-atomic lead to the Soviet Union. Or you might say that the sole . de fense of the free world is being . limply cast away. One indicat or of the gen eral trend is the Soviet pro gress with in t elrcontinental Joseph Alsop ballistic mis siles, discussed in the last report in this space. The 1CBM is ngnt ly called "The Ultimate Weap on." Yet these vast rockets are such complex mechanisms that there will be no overnight revo lution because of the mere test ing of a prototype. For some years to come, man ned aircraft, will certainly con tinue to dom inate the air- atomic weap ons system, For the im mediate future, therefore, the most import ant indicators of the present trend are the figures on Soviet and Stewart Alsop American pro duction of combat planes of ad vance types. i In brief, Soviet output is now far ahead of American output in three of the four major cate gories of combat aircraft, day- fighters, night-fighters and long range jet-bombers. These are the categories, moreover, of high est importance to this country. Concerning these categories, the figures speak for themselves. TN the category of night-fight ers, the United States has no advanced type worth mention ing except the F-102. About ten F-102s are now being produced News seats in the assembly which corresponds roughly to our con gress. ' It won 50 SEATS. Maybe there's hope for France yet. TtfORE foreign politics: ' L1X Egyptian sourcessay the World Bank (most of ' whose money comes from the USA) must clarify its terms before the Egyptian government can ACCEPT a 200 million dollar loan to build a huge dam on the uppr Nile which would bring in more land to go into competition with American crops. . .

TOMESTTC political note: The 84th congress assem bles for its 1956 session and what is shaping up for a seven month tug-of-war for POLITI CAL ADVANTAGE. Election year issues to be de bated by the lawmakers, include tax cuts, farm prices, social se curity expansion, federal aid to schools, highway construction and foreign aid all of which involve more spending at a time when we're already 280 BIL LION DOLLARS in debt TN BOTH France and America there are two outstanding troubles: :.--.".'': 1. Too much politics. 2. Too little statesmanship. . SHUCKS! All this cynicism has to do with our -nation as a whole and the world at large. - Here in Southern Oregon let's concentrate on making 1956 the biggest development year in our history. ' ' each month, and no step-up is promised. The Soviet "Flashlight" night- fighter is rated at least as good as the F-102, if not somewhat better. The Soviets are now pro ducing at least 50 "Flashlights" each month or five times as as many advanced night-fighters as ws are producing. Further more "Flashlight" output is go ing up. In the category of day-fighters, the United States has onlv two advanced types, the F-101B and the F-104, that are fit to meet the new Soviet "Farmer" fighter in the air. A great in crease in output of these planes, was promised by Secretary of Defense. Charles E. Wilson last spring,' after the Moscow over flights. If anything, however, output has been slowed down. Present output is an inconsider able trickle, and we shall be lucky to be getting a score or so per month of F-101B and F-104s by the end of next year. Mean while, Soviet production of the "Farmer," fighter is already run ning at the rate of at least 60 per month; and it is also going up. Over-all, Soviet output of ad vanced day and night fighters may well be running at a com bined rate of around 200 to 250 per month by the egd of 1956; as against an American produc tion rate thai; will still be trifl ing. 1UT the "figures are still more --'astonishing in the category of' the overlord of the air, the long range jet bomber. Last Spring, American production, target was ostensibly raised to 17 of our great B-52 bombers per month which was a long way to go, since production was then virtu ally nil. Today, however, we are actually turning out not more than five B-52s per. month; and restrictions on sub-contracts sug gest ' to insiders that the real Pentagon target, still very dis tant, remember, is no more than 13 B-52s per month. Meanwhile, the Soviets are already producing more than 13 per month of their "Bisons," which are broadly comparable to our B-52s. Furthermore, there has been a drastic change since last Spring, when eventual Sov iet capacity was believed to be 17 "Bisons" per month, and 17 B-52s became the American tar get..' x. . ' Since t8en, new information has caused the estimates to be revised. By the end of this year, the Soviets are expected to be turning out 25 "Bisons"' per month, or about twice as many of the overlords of the air as will be turned out in America. Moreover, the change in esti mates of ' Soviet output" has caused no change in the Ameri can production target. In the most votal of all categories of combat aircraft, we are appar ently content to stay far be hind. That leaves the single : cate gory of medium range jet bomb ers, in which Soviet output has not yet overtaken American out put. The Soviets are turning out something like 30 of then new "Badger" bombers each month. But we got a head start with our comparable B-47. We now have about 1,500 B-47s in the Strategic -Air Command, and these planes constitute SAC's main striking force. 0 UNFORTUNATELY, however, this complete reliance on medium range bombers is plain ly regarded as-intensely danger ous by SAC's brilliant command er, General Curtis LeMay. One of the great secret dramas of the struggle over this year's bud get was caused by LeMay's bold demand for an urgent program to produce no less than 1,900 B-52s. His purpose was to re-" place his B-47s with planes of true intercontinental range. But it is current doctrine that the richest country in the world is too poor to pay for its own defense. So of course LeMay s request was rejected. Herald Tribune Inc.
