Pears vs. People?
We find the reasoning of four members of the city
planning commission rather difficult to fathom.
The commission is appointed by the city, to make
studies for the future growth and well-being of the
city.
Monday night a ma jority of the commission voted
to recommend to the city council that it, in turn, rec
ommend to the highway commission that a 300-foot-wide
gash be sliced through the middle of an old es
tablished residential distnct, and a growing business
district.
The minority resisted, because the highway com
mission has given inadequate information on which to
base a decision (particularly regarding a possible west
side route), and because taking a big slice out of the
city would damage forever its chance for orderly, at
tractive growth.
CIFTY-EIGHT homes would be removed by a 150-
foot right of way, as first proposed. The 300-foot
gash probably would double this figure. If the nation
al average of 3.4 persons per home applied here, that
means more than 340 persons would be dispossessed.
Possibly two or three thousand more would be in the
area affected by the inevitable noise and dislocation
of the freeway.
. . We have said it before and say it again some
people will be hurt no matter where it goes. But the
fewer the people, and the
we say.
The decision between
routes seems to boil down
Shortages
Literate people, today
a crucial shortage of teachers. The lack has been
widely publicized, and attempts are being made to in
duce more able young people to enter the teaching
profession.
The same situation applies to the number of peo
ple entering engineering as a career.. We have seen
well-documented statements which show that, the
U.S. is falling, behind Kussi& in the production of
trained engineers.
We know, both from
from the statistics available, that the supply of well
qualified and experienced newspaper reporters is be
low the demand for them.
To a lesser extentperhaps, the same situation ap
plies to the'-supply of doctors, dentists, nurses, technicians.
M1
AYBE, we conclude, there is a shortage of people.
Actually, that's not
in the light of the rapidly rising population.
There are two reasons why total population is in
creasing bv leaps and bounds. The first is the rapid
surge in the birth-rate in the
is a longer life expectancy. ' ' " .
So the two jnajor influences tending to increase
the number of people are at opposite ends of the life
span, and the supply of workers has not increased
much if at all: Additionally, the people now arriving
at the productive age are the babies of the low-birth
rate depression years. There just aren't enough of
them to fill the demand. .
WHAT will happen when the youngsters who are
now crowding' the schools, the . product of the
high-birth rate postwar years, reach maturity and be
come available for employment in the fields where
they are now so badly needed? :.
Will there be more of them than can be absorbed?
Will there be widespread unemployment?
Will automation the use of machines to do many
things now done by humans cause widespread tech
nological unemployment to coincide with an increas
ed labor supply? ,
The bulk of the economists don't think so.
THEY.BELIEVE, to the contrary, that the shortage
of trained, workers in many fields will continue,
even with a greater supply. '
There are several reasons for this belief. .;
Probably the most significant is the almost explos
ive rise in the standard of living.-People want more
things. This demand creates an, expanded industrial
plant, which in turn calls for more and more work
ers. The experience of the past single generation, dur
ing which refrigerators, washing machines, dishwash
ers, deep freezers, air conditioning and a dozen other
appliances have become commonplace, is an example
of this. ; ; ' f
The technological advances which have created
these staples of -a high standard of living is another
reason for their optimism. There is no reason to think
that technology will be any less productive in the
foreseeable future than it has been in the past three
decades. '. . . " :
- .'' ; ':" '
' . - i . 1
CTILL ANOTHER reason is the population increase
itself. More people means a need f onmore things.
A fourth reason is that there are some jobs which
no machine, however automated, can perform. No
machine yet devised can take out an appendix, or de
sign a bridge, or write "a news story;-or give a patient
an alcohol rub. People,' in short, are not yet obsolete ;
not even obsolescent '; - ;
The cycle which we have described is known as "an
expanding economy, ;'and, with perhaps some minor
variations, seems to.be pretty much inevitable bar
ring, of course, a major war or some other dislocation
which cannot be predicted. ". .'
What happens when the economy ceases to ex
pand is a different question and one which a glance
in the crystal ball does-not answer. But that, in light
of wyhat we know of the coming years, seems at worst
a long way off. E.-A.'- -

Visit of Indonesian Leader
Poses Problem in Diplomacy
By CHARLES M. McCANN
United Press Correspondent
The visit of President Sukarno
of Indonesia to the United States
has the makings of a big head
ache for the
State r Depart
ment.
It is unlike
ly that the
visit of Broth
er Sukarno, as
I n d o n esians
call him, will
result in . any
impo r t ant
Charles McCann agreements.
Nor is it likely to change the
trend in the South Asia area.
This trend,, in which Indonesia
is a leader, is toward "neutral
ism."
But two countries whose
friendship is valuable to the
United States will be watching
every development during Suk
arno's visit with close attention
and with suspicion.
These two countries are the
Netherlands and Australia.
The Netherlands is a member
of the North Atlantic Treaty Or
ganization. A small one, it is
true, but an important one.
Australia is allied with the
United States in the Southeast

In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
Political note from Britain:
It is getting close to the zero
hour for British Prime Minister
Eden in the house of commons,
In a couple of hours (from the
time the dispatch was written in
London) opposition Laborites
will open their attack on his
handling of the so-called "frog
man" episode.
FIRST
In simple language, he's a skin
diver. That is to say, he goes
about the business of diving
without cumbersome equipment,
which includes special suits, air
hoses and air compressors.
So
He can go' about his diving job
QUICKLY, and if he's lucky he
can find out what he wants to
know' without anyone knowing
what he s up to.
T'HIS particular skin diver is a
retired naval officer, holding
ing the rank of commander in
the British navy. That 'leads to
the conclusion that his mission
as a rather important one and
he did his diving job in the im
mediate vicinity of a Russian
warship that had carried Russia's
top leaders to Britain for their
recent visit. . . . ;
- Something went wrong, : and
the Russians found out about it,
They accuse him of spying! Ima
gine that. The Russians have
spies all over the world. If the
British had sent a warship car
rying high British officials to a
Russian port, the water around
the place where it was anchored
would have been full of Russian
spies frogmen and otherwise.
Everyone knows that.
"PUT, as
previously stated,
sompthinff went wrnnff
The
skindiving British naval com
mander (his name is Lionel
Crabbe) disappeared. It is pre
sumed that he may have perish
ed. J
For some reason which pre
sumably has to do with what we
call diplomacy Eden can't
come clean and tell the whole
story, including whether or not
the skindiver is dead.:
THAT'S the story in a nutshell.
The point of it is that the
British Labor party, which is out
of power and wants to get back
in, is putting Prime Minister
Eden in the pan and frying him
to a crisp in the hope of bring
ing out something that will dis
credit him and his Conservative
party in the eyes of the British
people. '-.'-.
To keep the record straight, it
should be added that if the situ
ation was reversed the British
Conservative party might do the
same thing in the case of a La-
borite prime minister.
Such is the institution of poli
tics in a democracy. . '.
ALONG the same line,, New
York's Gov.-. Averell Harri
man', in a keynote speech to the
Wyoming democratic conven
tion in Cody, describes President
Eisenhower as a buck-passer and
Vice-President Nixon as a '' vic
ious slanderer." . . i ,
He added:
"Candidate x Eisenhower ; has
got to take full responsibility for
Nixon andalliis works" ...
HIS PURPOSE, of course, is to
destroy confidence in the
REPUBLICAN leaders of our
country so that the people may
be induced . to throw the Repub
licans OUT and put the Demo
crats back IN.'
If we are to be completely
candid, we must admit that if the
situation was . reversed the Re
publicans would not be above
using the same tactics. The point
I'd like to make is that discred
iting the ins so that the outs' can
GET IN is regarded as orthodox
and accepted political strategy
in democracies.
But it is TERRIBLE states
manship.

is allied with this country direct
ly in the United States-Australia-New
Zealand defense treaty
which was signed in San Fran
cisco on Sept. 1, 1951.
It happens that at this time
relations between Indonesia and
jthe Netherlands, from which it
won its independence in- 1949,
are exceedingly bad. Indonesia
has broken its last political ties
with the Netherlands.
One Reason
One reason among several
for these bad relations is the
claim of Indonesia to Nether
lands New Guinea, covering an
area of 151,000 square miles.
- Australia possesses the re
maining 159,000 square miles of
New Guinea, the world's second
largest island. It owns part out
right and holds the rest under a
United Nations trusteeship.
The Netherlands refuses to
give up its part of New Guinea.
Australia refuses to entertain
the idea that Netherlands New
Guinea become part of Indo
nesia. In fact, it is very prob
able that if it came to a show
down, Australia would fight to
keep Indonesia out.
When Secretary of State John
Stevenson is Choice
Of DemoCongressmen
Washington (CQ) Adlai
E. Stevenson is the solid choice
of Democratic Senators and Rep
resentatives for the party's Pres
idential nomination.
The Senators and Representa
tives, voting anonymously, made
their selections in a poll con
ducted by Congressional Quar
terly of the 280 Members of
Congress who are Democrats.
Sixty-four voted for Steven
son. Second place in the poll
went to Sen. Stuart Symington,
(Mo.), with 15 votes. Third
place is shared ,by Sen. Lyndon
B. Johnson (Texas) and Sen.
Estes Kefauver (Tenn.), with sev
en votes each. Gov. Frank
Lausche of Ohio finished fourth
with five votes, one ballot ahead
of New York's Gov.: Averell
Harriman.
Run Behind . .
Strung out behind the front
runners were: Gov. G. Mennen
Williams (Mich.), and Sen. Rob
ert S. -Kerr (Okla.), with two
votes, Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey
(Minn.), former President Harry
S. Truman, Sen. Richard B. Rus
sell (Ga.), and Rep. John W. Mc
Cormack (Mass.), with one vote
each.
There are 280 Democrats in
Congress 49 in the Senate, 231
in the House. Congressional
Quarterly mailed each of these
Democrats a form letter asking
them to signify their choice for
the ' Presidential nomination,
They were, asked to designate
their geographical . region, but
were not required to sign the
questionnaire, and few did
One hundred and thirteen re
sponded, representing a 40 per
cent answer to the poll.
Stevenson's support was 57
per cent of the total vote cast
and 23 per cent of the total Dem
ocratic congressional delegation
Symington's share represented
13 cer cent of those who an
swered. Johnson and Kefauver
had 6 per cent of the total vote
cast.
Strength in South
The bulk of Stevenson's
strength came from the South,
where 23 of 45 Senators and
Representatives who responded
voted for the former Illinois
governor. He was just as strong
in the West and Southwest
where 18 of 26 responses fav
ored his candidacy. In the North
and East Stevenson received 15
of 26 - votes cast. He received
8 out of 11 cast by Midwest Dem
ocratic Senators and Represen
tatives.
Symington and Johnson both
showed support in -the South,
with the Missourian receiving
eight votes and Johnson five.
Governor Lausche was next in
line in southern baUoting with
four votes. Neither Johnson nor
Lausche showed any strength
outside the South. -
Sen.' Kefauver's .biggest sup
port came from the West where
he received three votes.1 He re
ceived single ballots from the
North, East, South and Midwest.
Governor Harriman's ' four
votes were cast by Congressmen
from the North and East.' He
failed to receive even secondary
mention outside that area. Some
ballots indicated a second choice,
most of these for Symington, al
though these were not tabulated.
Response Varies
The response by geographical
area also was interesting. Twen- i
ty-six of the, 31 West and
Southwest Senators and Repre
sentatives responded, or 84 per
cent. Next best was the North
and East where 26 of 65 Demo
crats replied, 40 per cent Forty-
five of the South's 135 Senators
and Representatives, or 33 per
cent, made a choice.

Foster Dulles visited Indonesia
last March he commented on the
similarity between the early
days of the United States and
the present status of Indonesia
in their development from col
onial status.
No Harm Intended
Dulles undoubtedly intended
it to be simply a diplomatically
meaningless compliment
But it roused the greatest an
ger in the Netherlands. And it
did not go over well in Aus
tralia. Dutch Foreign Minister Joseph
Ma. H. Luns said in Parliament:
"The government is shocked
and disappointed that Mr. Dulles
has created the impression that
the United States government
approves the actions of the In
donesian government against the
Netherlands . . ." - .
Hence it looks as if Dulles
and President Eisenhower will
have to walk a diplomatic tight
rope in any statements they may
make to Sukarno. Anything that
could possibly be interpreted as
siding with Indonesia against the
Netherlands, or in favor of In
donesia's ambitions, , certainly
will be interpreted that way. '
Only 22 per cent of the Mid
west's 49 Democratis answered
the poll, the lowest figure in
percentage terms. Five Con
gressmen did not signify a geo
graphical breakdown.

Harriman Hits
At Administration
Policy on Power
Spokane (U.R) Gov. Av
erell Harriman, a "non-active'
candidate for the Democratic
presidential , nomination, today
resumed a very active political
tour of the power conscious Pa
cific Northwest.
The New York governor was
to speak today at Pullman,
Wash., and Idaho Falls, Ida., be
fore moving on Thursday to' Salt
Lake City and Reno. '
: Harriman hit hard at the ad
ministration's power policy in a
speech here .Tuesday night char
ging the Republicans "have giv
en away Heirs Canyon."
: 'President Eisenhower talks
of prosperity but for many of
our people this is a cruel myth,"
he said. "The farmer is having
hard times and small business is
growing weaker or being forced
to quit.
v"We Democrats want business
to prosper, large and small, but
prosperity is not healthy if it is
not shared by all groups among
our people."
Harriman said the "new type"
Eisenhower money policy puts
another sqyeeze on small busin
ess.
"The giant corporations have
adequate resources whereas the
small businessmen and farmers
who need the credit are having
difficulty getting it," he said
"So are home buyers and even
school districts at a time when
we need more homes and more
schools."
Harriman made a plea for a
new vision" in developing the
nation's resources.
Earlier at Butte, Mont., Har-
rjman charged the Eisenhower
administration with 'lack of ef
fort.". He said Mr. Eisenhower
and the GOP have ignored "one
of the great emerging problems
of our society the need to
make possible more productive
and fuller and richer life for the
aging."
He charged President Eisen
hower had "made it clear" that
the "nefarious right to work
laws" to "injure labor unions
have his blessing." v . .

Expresses Thanks
To the Editor: I wish at this
time to publicly thank all those
people who worked and cooper
ated on . the mosquito control
program.
The Medford Mail Tribune
helped launch the campaign and
a great number of people
worked very hard on it.
When the people petitioned
the county court, Shy Morthland
investigated the situation and
worked very hard to develop
the control program we now
have.
He was very cooperative, al
though he was not personally
bothered by mosquitos. The per
sonal interest work and investi
gation into mosquito control,
taken by Shy Morthland should
prove his integrity in his office
for the good of the people In
Jackson county. , : j .
Furthermore the results of his
work with Dr. Merkel speak for
themselves. The control pro
gram is very effective. The sit
uation before hand was indeed,
a serious one.
It takes a good man to remedy
a situation, not just talk about
it, and that's why "Shy" did.
Thanks again,

Oregon Myrtle
To the Editor:' I wish to take
issue with Mr. Eugene L. Parker
on his letter about the Oregon
Myrtlewood trees. I am an Ore-
gonian of 65 years continuous
residence and I have seen
Myrtlewood trees in different
parts of Oregon and some in
California, but I wish to inform
Mr. Parker that I lived for 10
years in Douglas county, Oregon,
in KoseDurg, and in the sur
rounding farming country, along
the banks of the South Umpqua
river between Oakland and
Roseburg there are a great num
ber of Myrtle trees. On South
Deer creek, six miles east of
Roseburg, they grow in great
abundance along the creek
banks.
So I believe that Mr. Parker
is mistaken in calling it a Cal
ifornia tree. And beside, it has
to my many years of reading
about our ' Myrtle trees been
common knowledge that they
grow only in the Holy Land and
in Oregon and California. They
may be more like bushes in the
Holy Land, as that is an old
land , with worn-out soil, where
as here, our soil Is comparative
ly new compared to the old
country overseas.
For as long as I can remember
(and I have a good memory for
things in the past) our Myrtle
tree has always been called Ore
gon Myrtle.

While Mr. Nunley has made
some mistakes during his tenure,
they have been mistakes of sin

administered his office well. He
has been co-operative with other

Likes Senator Morse
To the Editor: Friday, May
18, Is the day for getting real
men and women in omce to
take care of all Oregon's peo
ple's business. We . should try
and get the ones that get in the
job, not for the easy money that
is there, but to do something
for the people at home. There
is honor to be placed in a job
like that besides knowing how
to do the job.
Morse as I think has a good
record, and as I have been vot
ing for close to 60 years 55
years here on the coast I do
not think Oregon or any other
of the three states have sent
a better man for the job than
Senator Morse, a man that
knows law as a teacher of law,
and above all a man that is one
after my own heart, that holds
to a principle.
That is why some of that dirty
bunch in Washington, D.C., did
not like him, and some here in
Oregon even trying to use all
manner of things to get him out.
So if the people here in Ore
gon know what is good for them,
they better vote for " ?e. -1
have never seen the r jut I
have tried to learn all . could
about him and the good he has
done. There is plenty to be said
about men we send to Washing
ton, D.C. It is a good thing they
