New Things
What does the phrase "a rising standard of liv
ing" mean to the average family?
Basically, it means more mechanisms to do more
things for more people, rather than having people do
them for themselves.
Within the last generation we have seen it oper
ate. For example, at first drivers had to shift gears
the hard way; then it was made easier by improved
gearboxes, then it was virtually eliminated. The re
sult: Less effort required in driving a car.
fTHER developments in automobiles show the
same trend. With newer cars it is no longer nec
essary to roll down the window to signal for a turn ;
a simple flick of a lever does it for us. Windshields
can be washed as we drive merrily along.
In the home, the housewife no longer has to wash
her clothes by hand, rubbing them on a corrugated
metal board. Nor does she even have to lift the sop
ping clothes in and out of the water between washing
and rinsing. It's automated. And a few combined
washer-dryers are on the market, so that clothes don't
even have to be touched between the time they are
dumped in, dirty, and removed, clean and dry.
THESE ARE ONLY samples. There are more to
come. Whether or not this is a good thing for hu
mankind and its collective soul is something for the
philosophers to puzzle over. The fact is that we ordi
nary, somewhat lazy humans go for these labor-saving
aides and comforts like ants to honey.
It's a rapid process, too, this change. Within the
memory of those Eddie Durling calls "young old-timers,"
home life, highway life, business life, all have
changed. Less work is done with the muscles today,
more with the aid of mechanisms and gadgets. More
can be accomplished with the same amount of effort.
"""HANGING TIMES," a magazine devoted to prog-
ress and the family budget, looks ahead in its
current issue to describe some of the gadgets which
will be on the market soon this year.
Autos without carburetors, light bulbs which will
burn for 12,000 hours, germ-killing air conditioners,
drawer-type freezers, "heatless" ovens, miniature
auto radios, non-polish auto paints these are now
about ready, the magazine declares.
Coming soon are dishwashers which will clean,
dry and sterilize dishes without the use of water.
How? With ultrasonic vibrations. There are big
changes in food preservation and packaging on the
way, making use of atomic radiation. Gadgets oper
ated by power from the sun are not far away.
THESE ADD UP to more comfort, less effort, more

And while we pass to

other questions involving human integrity or deca

Fluoridation Moratorium
The Great Debate on fluoridation has waxed hot
and furious in the communications column of this pa
per for nearly three months now. We suspect most
people have their minds pretty well made up as to the
pros and cons on the subject.
In the past week or two, it has seemed to us, the
controversy has taken on the aspect of a broken rec
ord, repeating the same things over and over and
over and over. The tenor of some of the letters has
also become more and more acid, and one or two of
them have skirted dangerously close to irresponsible
attacks on the character and moral integrity of indi
viduals.

TT NOW APPEARS evident that, unless something
A unforseen occurs, the issue' will not come to a vote
of the people before the November general election.
Many readers (and at least one newspaperman)
shrink from the thought of reading pro and con let
ters on fluoridation eveiy day from now to Novem
ber. Add up these factors and we arrive at a decision :
A moratorium on letters to the editor of this news
paper concerning the proposal to add fluorides to
the city water supply as a public dental health meas
ure. This moratorium becomes effective today.
THIS DOES NOT mean, certainly, that the subject
will not be referred to again, because the ban on
printing these letters will be lifted if there appears
good reason to do so a change in the present situ
ation, for instance, or for additional public debate
prior to an election.
Whatever action is taken regarding the measure
will be duly recorded in the news columns. The mor
atorium applies only to "Communications."
Meanwhile, the people in favor and the people
against can get ready for the battle, if and when it
comes. .
The position of this newspaper has, we hope, been
made clear. Further research on the subject is plan
ned. If and when the battle of the letter-writers is re
joined, we hope, perhaps naively, that it can be con
ducted on a fairly high plane, without name-calling.

.mere still was wiae cavergence
between the Western allies and
Russia. But there seemed reason
to believe that at last a basis
might be established for serious
negotiations.
2. The Communist world
showed increasing confusion
over the Kremlin's debunking of
Josef Stalin. It was logical to
assume that the world-wide Com
munist subversion campaign
would be correspondingly slowed
up. Pravda, the Communist party
newspaper organ complained
that some Reds were using the
debunking to make "slanderous
fabrications and anti-party state
ments." .That meant that there
was danger the campaign was
getting out of hand.
3. Sultan Mohammed Ben
Youssef of Morocco conferred in
Madrid with Spanish Generalis
simo Francisco Franco on an in
dependence treaty for Spanish
Morocco. Prospects for agree
ment seemed good. If the nego
tiations succeed, Franco intends
to make a vigorous attempt to
use his long friendship with the
Arabs in combatting Communism
all over Nerth Africa.
The Bad
1. The seventh anniversary of
the signing of the North Atlantic
defense alliance came at an un
happy moment. Iceland, a
charter member pi the North At
lantic Treaty Organization, wants
American troops to get out.
France is denuding its part of the
NATO forces to combat the
rebels in Algeria. To make things
worse, a West German news
paper quoted Allied supreme
commander Gen. Alfred M
Gruenther as saying that his
forces cannot at this time de
fend West Germany against a
possible Russian attack. This
would imply the abandonment
Automation Coming Slowly;
Babson Discusses Problems
By ROGER W. BABSON
Babson Park, Mass. We
see much in the news today re
garding "Automation," which is
the scientific
nam -fnr ailto-
' t; matic factories.
I kh 1 want 311 in-
veatuia w
how I feel re
garding such
developments.
The automa
tic factory is
nW coming, but
Roger W. Babson will come slow
ly, for several reasons: (1) It
awaits more consolidations. (2)
It requires large capital ex
penditure. (3) It applies only to
standard goods which can be
used in great quantities, and can
not now be used for a product
which has various styles and
sizes. The oil industry used auto
mation successfully; but the bak
ing, candy, textile, and many
other industries could also do so
if they could raise the capital
and secure the volume necessary
for a profitable change-over.
Investors should realize that
it is foolish to invest in obsolete
concerns. Many corporations
listed on the N.Y. Stock Ex
change are now earning good
money, but have obsolete plants.
They could not stand up, in com
petition, with this new automatic
development. The sooner these
stocks are sold, the better. Please,
however, do not write me for
the names of these concerns.
Your investment advisor or local
bank should be able to give you
this information. I believe that
investors have much more to fear
from automation than has labor.
Reasons For Automation
Automation is absolutely
necessary if we are to continue
to raise the American standard
of living. It is also necessary for
our national security. A recent
article in Life magazine, March
5, shows how the Russians are
educating their youth for auto
mation. Most important of all,
the automatic factory is in the
best interest of aU groups
customers, suppliers, share own
ers, the public, and employees.
Although labor leaders have
not openly opposed automation,
they are using it in an appeal
for shorter hours and higher
wages. Temporarily, when a fac
tory changes over to automatic
operation, it will throw some
people out of employment, but
the most intelligent workers will
still be needed to watch the ma
chines and keep them in order.
In other words, the automatic

In The Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
The other day the voters of
Eugene went to the polls at a
municipal election and by a
small but sufficient majority de
clared they would rather keep
the upper reaches of the Mc
Kenzie river as a scenic and
recreational asset than to permit
their power resources to be de
veloped to feed the needs of in
dustrial development.
HERE is where the voters of
Eugene came into the pic
ture: Power development in these
upper reaches of the McKenzie
was proposed by the Eugene
Water and Electric Board, which
needs more power to meet the
needs of a growing industrial
economy. It prefers to develop
its own power in its own area
to buying power from Bonne
ville and thus getting itself un
der the thumb of Big Govern
ment. It asked for a municipal bond
issue' to develop the power it
presently needs. The site chosen
was in the source region of the
McKenzie, including Clear Lake.
The voters of the city turned
down the bond issue, thus ren
dering their verdict that they'd
rather keep the McKenzie as it
is thaa to have its full power
potential developed even by
their own municipal electric
utility.
rpHE Eugene Register - Guard,
- which opposed the power
project, prints an interesting edi
torial headed by this question:
How MUCH Do We Love the
McKenzie?
Do we love it enough, the
newspaper asks in substance,
TO GET OUT AND ROLL UP
OUR SLEEVES AND CLEAN
IT UP?
factory will upgrade labor and
encourage efficiency and quality.
Encourages Industries
Many present women workers
should return to their homes and
devote their time to bringing up
their families. Many of the young
men workers should go back to
school and become more effi
cient. More of the older workers
should be retired under proper
pensions. These and other
changes should take 'up any
slack in the labor market. Auto
mation as a part of our national
security program may result in
increasing "piece-work wages"
and killing any idea of the CIO
that all employees in a depart
ment should have the same wage.
There is a little company in
Washington known as Invention,
Inc. It studies new inventions by
keeping three full-time experts
in the Patent Office reading new
patents. This company keeps
manufacturers informed as to
new machines which may com
pete with their present ma
chinery. I am astonished at the
new developments now on draw
ing boards and in test tubes.
Looking back over the past 50
years, we have seen great new
industries such as automobiles,
electrical appliances, radio and
television being torn and
prospering. These Patent Office
studies indicate that the next 50
years will see even greater
changes and more new indus
tries. These should bring a great
er opportunity for labor in the
year ahead.
The Cost of Food
Efficient employees have
nothing to fear from automation.
The inefficient, as, my friend H.
L. Pratt teaches, should go back
to school and learn how to be
come efficient. This especially
applies to those in the food in
dustry. During the past few
years, the cost of our food has in
creased unnecessarily, notwith
standing the good work done by
the super-markets.
In 1949, the average reader
paid about $950 a year to his
favorite supermarket. Since
then, these same purchases have
increased in price about 11 per
cent. The farmer has constantly
been getting less during this pe
riod and the supermarkets have
been benefiting from "self-service."
The increased cost must be
due to certain services rendered
between the time the farmer
sells the food and the time you
buy it at the supermarket. It
looks to me as if the food busi
ness is in immediate serious need
of automation. '
worse. All three countries are
members of the North Atlantic
Alliance.
3. The Palestine situation re
mained dangerous. There were
differences in policy between the
United States and Britain over
the course to be pursued in event
of an Arab-Israel war. This sit
uation was complicated by
French anger over Arab aid to
rebels in French North Africa.
There was one favorable devel
opment. The U. N. decided to
send Secretary General Dag
Hammarskjold to the Middle
East in an attempt to work out
a peace agreement between
Israel and the Arab states.
The whole area, it adds, is
"somewhat run down." Trash
litters it. The bottom of crystal
clear Clear Lake whose magic
transparency is one of its out
standing attractions is coated
with beer cans tossed out of
boats by fishermen and sight
seers. THE problem, the R-G says, is
this:
"While EWEB (Eugene Water
and Electric Board) lost the elec
tion, the attractive power sites
remain. We have no guarantee
that some other agency, not con
trolled by Eugene voters, might
not some day put in a power
dam in the Clear Lake area.
"What better expression of
sentiment could be uttered than
to have the friends of the Mc
Kenzie band together into Sun
day work parties to clean it
up? . . . Use of the area (for rec
reation) and volunteer work
there will count tremendously
toward 'saving the McKenzie'
another day. It's a case of actions
speaking louder than, words.
"Anybody want to grab a
hazel hoe?"
npHE editorial concludes:
-1- "All together, regardless of
race, religion, political party or
previous condition of servitude,
those of us who love the Mc
Kenzie could clean up after a
generation of campers and sing:
"The empty beer can
"Much depresses
"Us, who love our
"Wildernesses."
TT IS a timely suggestion.
A Oregon, at long last, is feel
ing the stirrings of a new and
exciting industrial movement
that will yank us out of the
lethargy of the past and bring
us up even with our more in
dustrially progressive neighbors
to the north and the south.
Here at its beginning, this
new movement SCARES us. We
wonder if the march of industry
will destroy our NATURAL
beauties. I think not. New Eng
land is highly industrialized.
But New England is LOVELY.
New England is about all the
proof we need that natural
beauties can be RETAINED
along with the great advantages
to be derived from an industrial
economy that promotes higher
standards of living. Old England
is another example that beauty
and utility can go along hand
in hand.
But we're still scared. The
vote in Eugene proves it.
T'M SURE, though, that before
we complain too loudly about
the destruction by industry of
our scenic and recreational
beauties we'd better QUIT DE
STROYING THEM OURSELVES
by indiscriminate litter-scattering,
beer can tossing, etc.
How often have you stopped
at some enticing wide spot on
a mountain road, beside a charm
ing stream, for a moment of
priceless relaxation in the lap
of nature, ONLY TO FIND THE
PLACE BEFOULED WITH THE
LITTER AND THE OFFAL OF
HUMAN CARELESSNESS?
Too often, I'm afraid.

Blood Opportunity
To the Editor: The recent suc
cessful visit of the Red Cross
Bloodmobile unit to this com
munity was made possible only
because of the wholehearted co
operation of our people. It is
with a great deal of pride, there
fore, that I take advantage of
this opportunity to thank those
selfless and generous citizens
who gave blood during that
time.
The Red Cross blood program
is, by all means, a community
opportunity in which every able
bodied adult can participate. It
is an opportunity through which
we can assure lif esaving blood
is available in hospitals when
needed by our friends and neigh
bors, i
In addition to being a commu1
nity opportunity, the blood pro
gram is also a community re
sponsibility. As citizens we can't
afford not to support this proj
ect, which has the backing of
local medical and hospital au
thorities. The lives of our fami
lies, our friends, even ourselves,
may depend on our support.
With all humility, then, may
I say I am pleased to belong to
a community which accepts its
responsibilities so freely.
At the same time I would urge
those who gave blood during the
past visit as well as those who
were unable to donate blood
to continue their support of this
vital program by giving their
time, effort and money, as well
as their blood.
We are hoping for a similar
success when the Bloodmobile
visits Medford, Tuesday, April
10, and Ashland Wednesday,
April 11, at the Elks temples.

About Mining
To the Editor: Southwest Ore
gon has ample pure mountain
water, fresh air and mountain
scenery, yet the mineral re
sources are more or less dor
mant for lack of being developed
for ' one reason or another. Per
haps cheaper, transportation
should be encouraged for a sea
port on Curry county coast, as
all of the southwest Oregon
counties are considered as being
in a mineralized zone. ... . ..
The small mine owners' most
economical method of extracting
valuable mineral ..from the var
ious ores is a process right at
the mine as the ore comes out
of the mine, according to late
scientific sources, thereby reduc
ing expenses right from the
ground to market. Necessity is
often the creator of invention
when the time is right.

Bedbugs, Anyone?
To the Editor: Some time back
I wrote you about the bedbug
situation in your area, Jackson
ville at one time being the loca
tion and habitat of this particu
lar bug.
I saw a story in the Oregonian
recently in which there is a gen
eral appeal for specimens of this
bug by a professor at the Uni
versity of Oklahoma.
.Now, I note the good profes
sor says that improved insect
extermination has reduced the
number of these bugs through
out the nation. It may be that
the professor has never heard of
the simple and easy-to-get exter
minator used in Jackson county
from early times, namely, just
common salt.
I was wondering if you peo
ple still had a goodly supply of
these bugs, possibly in some of
the outlying districts and could
send some to the University's
department of zoology? I have
been searching this area for.
some time and never have been
able to find any of the bugs. Of
course, this is a dry climate," to
tally unlike the moister climate
of southern Oregon which fav
ors these bugs.
I might call attention to one
statement made by the profes
sor. He says, and I quote: "No
scientist ever pinned anything
on bedbugs." Evidently he nev
er spent a night in Jacksonville
when the bugs were numerous
and guests at the hotel - had to
keep the lights burning all night
to scare the insects from com-
Demos Frustrated
OverAnti-Monopoly
Success by Barnes
Washington (CQ) Election-minded
Democrats, itching
to corner and slay the dragon
Monopoly, are frustrated. Th
reason: a Republican St. George
seems to be capturing the beast
and the' credit.
For three years, GOP dragon
fanciers no less than Democratic
trust-busters have been baffled
by the vigor with which Stanley
N. Barnes has discharged his
duties as assistant attorney gen
eral in charge of the Antitrust
division.
Few Democrats took seriously
the GOP's 1952 platform pledge
to "relentlessly protect our free
enterprise system against mono
polistic and unfair trade prac
tices." That was before April 1,
1953, when President Eisen
hower picked Barnes, a Califor
nia judge recommended by Vice
President Richard M. Nixon and
then Gov. Earl Warren, as the
man to redeem the pledge.
The precise extent to which
Barnes has succeeded remains in
controversy. Anti-trust is a high
ly complex field, and the en-
forcement officer's decisions al
ways are open to technical dis
pute. Smashing Success
Politically, however, Barnes
has won a smashing success. By
earning the personal confidence
of wary Democrats and the
policy backing of his Admini
stration superiors, he has disarm
ed potential critics and effective
ly removed antitrust from the po
litical arena.
Two facts point up Barnes'
unusual personal status. Nomi
nated recently for a circuit '
judgeship, Barnes was cleared
without dissent by the Senate
Judiciary committee. Chairman
James O. Eastland (D-Miss.), who
reportedly is sitting on the
similar but nine-month-old nomi
nation of Solicitor General
Simon E. Sobeloff because of
the latter's role in pressing for
the outlawing of segregation,
made no issue of the fact that
Barnes signed two anti-segregation
briefs for the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
Second fact is that the Admini
stration, having sought and re
ceived Senate confirmation of
Barnes' judgeship, now plans to
keep around until Congress goes
home. St. George, having cowed
the beastly dragon, is obviously
the man to fend off hopeful
Democratic knights. .' b ;
