We have received a request from Ashland to express our views on the problems, and present our So often of late we have been requested to stop expressing our views on chanere the views we have is most reassuring and refreshing. We always did like Ashland. They are a fair minded, well informed, tolerant group over there, and inclined to think out of accepting the sure-fire including the Big Brass m And it seems there has been a special interest in Ashland of late as to what to do with Germany in Europe and with Israel in the Middle East. WELL this department knows what to do with them, just as a few hundred million individuals in habiting this whirling and harassed globe also know. In fact, it is rather simple. 0 Take Germany, for example: No. 1: Germany should be united, one nation under one flag and all foreigners and foreign troops withdrawn. Then Germany should be disarmed and neutral ized relieved of any military burdens financial or otherwise, and allowed to follow its true genius which outside of making good music and beer, is industrial development, improvement and expansion. . Under such conditions the standard of living in united Ger many would reach astronomical heights. THE United Nations should then take charge as trustee, but unfortunately so long as the one power veto exists, this would be difficult, if not impossible, to achieve. So Uncle Sam and John Bull should take over and not only guarantee German neutrality but solemnly pledge to declare war on Soviet Russia, or any other country, daring to violate that neutrality. Russia would like to take over unarmed Germany, of course, but it would not risk war particularly an atomic war with, the USA to do it. So there you are the Germany problem SOLVED ! Not so difficult, was it? . TSRAEL and the-Middle East present an impasse that is somewhat similar. The Arabs publicly proclaim nothing will satisfy them until the Jewish intruders are either extermi nated or driven out of their "holy land" and into the sea. The Israelites naturally don't relish such a fate and declare they will fight to the last gun and the last man, to retain their identity as a nation, and an independent one. There is little evidence either nation will mater ially modify its position. SO WHAT? Well, that isn't as hard to' answer as it may seem. Just establish a neutral zone between Israel and the Arabs large enough and sufficiently well forti fied to render a surprise invasion by either side a very unappetizing sort of venture. Then assuming the United Nations veto still ren ders any international agreement impossible, let the United States and Great Britain enter into an agree ment similar to the one regarding Germany and let the world know about it, particularly Soviet Russia, with special emphasis that any violation of that zone neutrality by any one will mean war, by land, sea and in the air. ... This would allow Israel to follow its natural bent which is not war but peaceful commerce, and the Arabs, no longer fearing Israel aggression, could in their large, thinly populated territory find a place for their refugees, and enjoy whatever it is Arabs do enjoy, to their hearts content, ad infinitum! gO THAT settles problem No. 2! Lack of space, we grant, compels a certain over simplification, but we h?-e every confidence that Ashland at least those '.king the request-will agree that the above gives uiem a basic outline which if followed will in due course peacefully solve two of the world's most immediate, pressing and com plicated problems. And we shall make no charge, nor expect any thanks or Nobel peace prize. The only worry, as far as we are concerned, is to convince someone ANY one outside of Ashland of the wisdom, vision, desirability and efficacy of such a solution of two of the world's most perplexing problems. R.W.R. GOP Said Attracting Young Labor Unionists Boise U.R) Clyde V. Brum mell, director of precinct organi zation for the Oregon Republi can Central committee, says the GOP is attracting young mem bers of laor unions in increas ing numbers. At a meeting of the Colum bian club here yesterday, Brum mell said the Republican party presented an "individual ap peal to the labor union crafts man. "Working craftsmen are not the products of biological punch presses turned out in a common mold with the same yearnings and needs," he said, "and those who classify the working man as a common man are advocat ing a reactionary and unfree philosophy."

Mollet To Make Trip Into North Africa Paris (U.R) Premier Guy Mollet announced today he will soon make a flying trip to terror-ridden North Africa, where Arab violence caused nearly 400 deaths over the four-day Eastern week end. "I plan to return very soon to Algeria, not to interfere with the authority of Minister Resi dent Robert LaCoste but to ful fill a promise," Mollet told newsmen at his week end resi dence in. Rambouillet. Official sources said the date for the trip probably will be set at a Cabinet meeting late this week or early next. Mollet plans to return to Paris tomor row to deal with LaCoste's de mands for 200,000 reinforcement. Communications Letter! to the Editor must bear the nam and address of the writer dlthougn under certain circum stances the use of a Den name or initial for publication i permis rible. The Mai Tribune reserves Che right to edit all letters with an eye to clarification and condensa tion Letters submitted for Dublica tton must not exceed 400 words Disputes Quotation To the Editor: A recent letter to the editor appearing in an Oregon newspaper objected to fluoridation of drinking water, contending that a recent pro nouncement of His .Holiness, Pope Pius XII, in his address to the First International Congress of Histopathology of the Nervous System, on the 14th of Septem ber, 1952, condemned fluorida tion. This printed address by Pope Pius XII has been read carefully and I find no state ment or inference which would justify the statement that Pope Pius XII has condemned fluor idation of community drinking water. Before the Pope issues a pro nouncement, a thorough search is made by a research staff to avoid any possible error. One is not justified in reading words or inferences into public state ments. We must bear in mind that the fluoridation subject with its pro and con arguments has been known by the Church for at least 25 years. We can conclude that if the Church be lieved that fluoridation was contrary to moral principles, then the Church would have made such a pronouncement. The Church has always been in terested in the study and ad vancement of science. ' In studying the Pope's mes sage it is noted that he encour ages the study and science of medicine and speaks of the common good on the commu nity, proclaiming that the State has as its function the care for the common good in the com munity. Applying this principle, the Pope says that the State must first have legal authority. The legal authority of fluoridating water has been clearly establish ed by law. Its Constitutionality has been approved by the Su preme Court of the State of Ore gon. The next principle t that the Pope announces before an Act can meet the common good is the principle of a question of fact. It has been approved by practically all of the National, State, and County medical and dental associations, as well as the United' States Public Health Service, as causing no injury to the body but on the contrary making substantial reductions in the amount of tooth decay up to 60 per cent. Thus, it would clearly appear that principle has been satisfied. Msgr. Robert Peters, writing for "The Register", the official diocesan newspaper of Peoria, 111., stated that fluoridation of drinking water does not involve any moral doctrine and one should be free to vote on fluoridation according to what he or she believes will best serve the -community. Leo Smith ' Pacific Building Portland, Ore. Editor's note: The reference in the letter above is to a quo tation in a letter to the editor in the Mail Tribune of Feb. 12, 1956.) Retirement at 62 To the Editor: Your recent editorial on the proposal, passed by the House of Representatives, to lower to 62 years the age at which women may become elig ible for social security benefits, states very succinctly some of the arguments which have been made for and against this change in the present law. The proposed amendment is similar to, but would not go quite as far as, my own Senate bill, which would lower the eligibility age for women to 60 years. This change has been rec ommended by Dr. Arthur J. Altmeyer, for 20 years a leader in this field and Commissioner of SociaL Security until April 1953. It was one of the annual recommendations of the Federal Security Agency to Congress be tween 1942 and 1952. Unfor tunately, the Eisenhower admin istration has told the Congress that it opposes lowering the eligiblity age for women. The cost of the change to age 62 which would be made under the House bill has been cited as one objection to this step. Yet, according to the chief actuary of the Social Security Administra tion, it would increase the cost of the system by only Vi per cent of payroll. He testified be fore the Senate Finance Com mittee that all the proposed ex tensions of H.R. 7225 would be more than met by the 1 per cent increase in payroll deduc tions authorized by that bill, so the actuarial soundness of the social security fund 'would not be endangered. I believe that the other ob jection to lowering the eligibilty age for women that more people should be "encouraged" to work as long as they can misses the point. Retirement on social security is, of course, vol untary, and no employer should use it as an excuse for dismiss ing willing and capable workers when they reach eligibilty age, whether that be 65, 62 or 60. But I do not think the right way to "encourage" people to Malenkov's Success in Britain Declared New Type Red Threat By CHARLES M.

A Congressional Quarterly survey shows that currently lit tle is done in the states. The issue will come to a head soon' after the Easter recess, when the Senate takes up the task of revising the Corrupt Practices Act. Laxness of this law was dramatically demon strated by the $2,500 offer from an oil company attorney, re ported and rejected by Sen. Francis Case (R-S.D.) just before the vote on the natural gas bil. Two Approaches Senators will have before them two approaches to the problem. One was devised in 1955 by Sen. Thomas C. Hen- nings Jr. (D-Mo.) and endorced by the Senate Rules Committee. The other is sponsored by Major ity Leader Lyndon B. Johnson (D-Tex.) and Minority Leader William F. Knowland (R-Calif.) Their bill, written after the Case incident, has been co-sponsored by 83 other Senators. The two measures agree in most respects, but split sharply on control of primary elections and nominating conventions. Existing law, which everyone agrees is inadequate, excludes primaries and other nominating devices from its provisions. Hen- nings' bill specifically includes them. The Johnson-Knowland bill excludes them, but provides for candidates for federal office to file copies in Washington of whatever reports their indivi dual states require on their cam paigns for nomination. Hennings has said he will fight to bring primaries under federal regulation. Johnson and Knowland show no signs of backing down from their oppo sition to this. The outcome of the battle will turn, in part at least, on how adequate other Senators think existing state laws are. States Recorded ' Congressional Quarterly's sur vey of those laws shows: Forty-two states with some regulation. Six Delaware, Illi nois, Kansas, Louisiana, Nevada and Rhode Island with none. Thirty states limit the amount that may be spent in securing a nomination for the Senate; 18 do not. Limits range from $2,500 in Ohio to $60,000 or more in Oklahoma. Thirty-one states have limits on spending for nomination to the House; 17 do not. Ohio and Utah set the lowest ceiling, $2,500; Oklahoma and Georgia, the highest, $25,000 or more. Complete reports on campaign contributions are required in 19 states. No reports need be filed in 17. The other 12 have partial coverage, applied to candidates or political committees, but not both. As for campaign expenditures, complete reports "are required in 31 states; candidates but not committees must report in 11; there is no coverage in the six remaining states. . In Oregon, candidates for nomination to both Senate and House may spend 15 per cent of one year's salary. Reports of campaign contributions must be filed by political,, committees, and reports of campaign expen ditures by both committees and work longer is to postpone the day when they may draw their modest retirement insurance under the social security laws. Richard L. Neuberger United States Senator Washington, D. C.

The services will be conduct ed by the Protestant minister at this tiny coastal village Gould built into an internation ally known Riviera resort. terially to ease the way for Pre mier .Nikolai A. Bulganin and Communist Party leader Nikita S. Khrushchev, who are to ar rive in Britain on April 18. Malenkov did not go to Britain as a guest of the government. He went instead, in his capacity of minister for electric power stations, as the guest of the Brit ish Electricity Authority. Georgi Makes Switch The program for Malenkov and his fellow members 'of a delegation of Russian engineers was carefully worked out. It called for an exhaustive, and exhausting, tour of electric pow er installations all over Britain. But Malenkov had hardly ar rived when he took the ball away from his hosts. He showed no interest in power stations. He has left the official party at Bothered candidates. The Rules Committee major ity have favored Hennings' bill found ample legal precedent for federal regulation of primary election finances. It said cover age was "desirable, since in ap proximately one-third of the states success in the primary is tantamount to success in the final election." The Administra tion endorsed this view. The issue is a thorny one for Congress, because no legislator feels immune from the suspi cions raised by the Case inci dent. There is strong pressure to "do something about it," and backers of the Hennings bill will exploit that concern for the rep utation of Congress in their plea for direct federal regulation. But many Congressmen are re luctant to transfer authority from the states to the national government. No one is predict ing the outcome of the debate, (Copyright 1956, Congressional Quarterly) Matter of THE HIDDEN CRISIS London A-bright spring sun has shone on London all this past week, bringing out the young green in the parks and squares, and g i 1 d i ng l-the whole beautiful, lux urious London scene with an extra sheen of gaiety and hope. But be- A 1 J- 1 o ' Joseph Alsop neam me smiling surface, at least in the small circle of those who know the inwardness of Britain's posi tion, Middle Eastern develop ments are causing gloom so deep that it all but approaches des pair. "It feels now like 1936 or even 1937." Again: "This is the worst moment in the last 10 years; I've not felt like this since just before Munich." And once again: "Finding a way out in the Mid dle East is so urgent that it may not be just a matter of days, but even a matter of hours." THESE are not the remarks of shallow flnH Vivstpriral men They are statements that have been made to this reporter in the past few days by responsible and experienced leaders of the Brit ish government brave men who have played great parts and have not flinched or quailed through all the perils Britain has experienced since the rise of Adolph Hitler. The third of the foregoing quotations, moreover, is a para phrase of the summation in a personal message sent by Prime Minister Sir Anthony Eden to President Eisenhower some days ago through an American offi cial with whom the Prime Min ister discussed the present Mid dle Eastern situation. The opinions the Prime Minis ter expressed were so grave in all their implications that the American official asked for a summary of the conversation, in order to make sure his report was correct in detail. The hard driven Prime Minister himself wrote out the informal message on the spot. rpHIS is only one of a series of similar British messages to Washington, furthermore, all sent in recent days and all on the same theme. A very long formal message, setting forth the entire situation in fullest de tail and urgently asking for de termined American action on several fronts, was sent off rath er more than a week ago. A further message, asking for clear proof of American support for the Baghdad Pact in the form of economic aid, was subse quently sent by Foreign Minister Selwyn Lloyd to Secretary of State John Foster Dulles. As these words are written, the American response has not yet come through. The long days of waiting, no doubt occa sioned by the absence of both j every opportunity to see ordi nary British people, and to make them like him. He has been mobbed by friend ly crowds at football games, horse races, factories. He has kissed babies, patted them on the heads, visited the shops and talk ed to housewives. A Scots boy whose hand he held told his par ents later he wanted ' to be a Russian when he grew up. Also, Malenkov has adroitly avoided being drawn into any controversial discussion. In the few speeches he has made, Mal enkov has said little more than that Russians like Britons and want to be friendly with them. In brief, Malenkov has made a success as a propagandist. He is just as much a Communist as are Bulganin and Khrushchev. He is dedicated to the same philosophy to promote Commu nist world combination by one means or another. Make Unbridled Attacks Bulganin and Khrushchev made themselves thoroughly un popular on their recent tour of South Asia. They abused the hos pitality of the governments which entertained them by un bridled attacks on other coun tries, notably the United States and Britain. The Malenkov method is more subtle and more dangerous, in that it disarms suspicion. There is still a great deal of opposition in Britain to the forthcoming visit of Bulganin and Khrushchev. They are going on a state mission, as guests of Prime Minister Anthony Eden. They will even have tea with Queen Elizabeth II, blood reia tive of the family of Czar Nicho las II whom the Bolsheviks mur dered in cold blood in a cellar in . a house in Ekaterinburg where they had been interned. Undoubtedly Bulganin and Khrushchev will watch their step while they are in Britain both in their official talks and in their public appearances. But if they meet with no hos tile demonstrations, however careful they may be, it will be due in great part to Malenkov. Fact Joseph Alsop President and Secretary of State from Washington until only a few days ago, have given the British leaders the feeling of "shouting warnings into a feath er bed." Although Prime Minis ter Eden has just: visited the President, some members of the Cabinet have even advocated an other flight to .Washington eith er by Eden himself or by a qual ified personal emissary capable of putting the facts before Pres ident Eisenhower on a man-to man basis. - V CJUCH, then, is the atmosphere u within the governmental cir cle. The cause of it is relatively simple. In brief, the abrupt dis missal of Lt. Gen.- Sir John Bagot Glubb from command of the Arab Legion in Jordan re vealed a much greater funda mental insecurity in the British position in the Middle East than had been previously imagined, Perhaps the London view is wrong, but the wisest men here think there is momentarily dan ger of a new coup m Jordan, paid for by Saudi Arabian oil dollars, organized by. the Com munist underground, and spur red on by violent propaganda of the Egyptian radio. Another suc cessful coup in Jordan, instal ling an anti-Western government there, would place the pro-West-ern government of neighboring Iraq in serious danger; and In this and other ways would di rectly imperil Britain's access to the vital Middle . Eastern oil source. In addition, it would vastly increase the likelihood of an Arab-Israeli war this year and the chances of war this year are already quoted at even by the highest authorities in London. JORDAN is by no means the only point where the situa tion is thought to be near the explosion point. Britain simply has not the military strength and economic resources needed to contain the Middle Eastern situation single handed. Mean while, no common Anglo-American policy in the Middle East has yet been agreed on in work ing detail. No agreement has even been reached in Washing ton on the practical implemen tation of the so-called Tripar tite Declaration, by which we are committed to join Britain and France in punishing any ag gressor in the Arab-Israeli con flict. In these circumstances, Brit ain is like a man who feels an enemy's hard fingers reaching for his jugular vein (which in Britain's case is the Middle East ern oil source) yet can do noth ing to ward off the attack. The blandest complacency appears to reign in Washington. But it is also well to remem ber that just as Britain's jugular vein runs through the Middle East, so too the strategic and political jugular vein of the United States of America hap pens to run through Britain. Copyright 1956, New York Herald Tribune Syndicate Inc. In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS A helping of politics: Although he doesn't admit it, Adlai Stevenson (who is cam paigning in California) seems to have adopted new tactics. He says he isn't conscious of any change. He tells the, newsmen: "You see the old Adlai Steven son." But AFTER a television speech in Los Angeles, he devoted an hour and a half to shaking hands with 500 Democrats at a party rally. The next morning he HIKED four blocks to a street rally in the heart of LA's garment dis trict. On the way, he reached up from the sidewalk to shake hands with a truck driver who was waiting at a red light. Be hind the truck driver was a de liveryman. He had his young son with him in his truck. Adlai reached up and shook hands with both of them and grinned and said "Hello." At a sidewalk fruitstand, he stopped and bought an apple and took a big bite out of it for the benefit of the photographers. Arriving at the street rally, he made a quickie talk to a crowd of some 600 people and after that he signed autographs as long as his political escort would let him stay. He wrote only his first name ADLAI. Then he went across the street to a sandwich shop, a little counter-and-stool place. He had a CORNED BEEF sandwich. After he finished his sandwich, he went around behind the coun ter and leaned over it and shook hands with every customer in the place. HOW come? Let's go back a few weeks into the past. There was a pri mary election in New : Hamp shire, you will remember. In this primary, Kefauver RAN AWAY from Stevenson. There was another primary, somewhat later, in Minnesota. AGAIN KeFauver licked the socks off of Stevenson. IN both primaries, Stevenson was the favorite of the PRO FESSIONALS. In Minnesota, he had the all out backing of the Democratic organization. Minnesota's Dem ocratic governor was all FOR him, and couldn't see anybody else. Minnesota's left-wing Dem acratic Senator Hubert Hum phrey was beating the drum and leading the ballyhoo for Steven son. But Kefauver is a HAND SHAKER. He has the golden touch' that leads the people he shakes hands with and passes the time of day with to believe that he is ONE OF THEM. That he understands their problems. That he LIKES them. "M"OTICE, please, that Steven son wasn't long in catching on. His change of tactics in Cali fornia indicates quite clearly that after watching the results in New Hampshire and Minne sota he said to himself: "If that is what the people want, I'LL GIVE IT TO THEM." "I'd like to add that if he said it to himself he said it just that way. He didn't contract "that is" into "that's." He didn't say "to 'era," He said TO THEM. He is a cultured person who uses the English language carefully and accurately, seldom if ever falling into the vernacular. But he catches onto things rather quickly. Don't write him off YET. Ma.
