If Wayne Morse had said the senatorial committee investigating the Al Sarena case would make no re port, no doubt former Governor McKay would call him a "liar." For that statement would not have been true. Senator Neuberger, chairman of the subcommittee making the investigation, has announced that the report will be made public about June 1st, it has been in preparation for about six weeks, and the delay he ascribes to time allowed members who may wish to make a minority report to do so. . "llf E HAVE no knowledge of what the report will TT be. But in several of his speeches Secretary McKay in defending the Al Sarena deal, did cite as evidence of the legal and lily-white character of the transaction, that a committe, hand-picked, he claimed, for its hostility to himself and the present administra tion after weeks of investigation, had found it all so completely on the "up-and-up" that no report had been made and he expected none would be. "llf ELL a report will be made, and our guess is that T T the contention of this department that the sale of this timber was "within the law" but was a "give away" as far; as the government securing the remuner ation to which it was entitled is concerned, will be upheld. As so frequently stated it was a question of policy, not of morals. The denial of the patent by the former administration of the Department of the Interior and upheld by the Forest Service and the Bureau of Land management should have been upheld also by the McKay regime, and a proper law passed that would have rendered this "shady" business of "minin? for timber at $5 an acre" illegal. TIE HAVE yet to hear of any convincing explana tion of why Secretary of the Interior McKav did not do this, or why his matter. We are sure it will be $2,600 Will Support the Working Girl! A working girl in New York City needs to earn $2,615 a year, or $50.30 a week, to "keep up her ap pearance, morale, and self-respect, and to compete for and hold her job." This is one of the conclusions of a new study made by the New York State Department of Labor for the guidance of minimum wage boards. In Rochester, her earnings must be slightly higher s,ooo; ; in Jamestown tney may be lower ($2,422). The average for the state is $2,593. The estimated cost of living for a single woman employed in the state of Washington the Pacific Coast. as last determined in 1954, Washington in 1952, it was price index has not risen appreciably since those de terminations were made. The above figures contrast sharply with varidus budgets prepared in the mid-1930s by the Works Pro gress Administration. The WPA "maintenance" bud get for the family of a worker with two children add ed up to only $1,261 a year; the "subsistence" budget to only $903. One item in the New York working girl's budget that did not appear in the WPA budgets is $727 for income taxes, insurance, and savings. E. R. R. Powell Amendment The Powell amendment still hangs heavy over the bill to grant federal. aid for school construction. Vir tually all other differences were ironed out last year and Speaker Rayburn announced in December that the bill would be acted upon by the House as the first important business of the 1956 session. He now says it may be taken up on the floor in June. I he delay results from Clayton Powell, Democratic member from Harlem, has not been dissuaded from offering an amendment that would deny federal money to any school district still resisting racial desegregation. He was not moved by a personal letter from President Eisenhower last June which pointed out that regation rider could get by debate in the Sinate; that merely block badly needed legislation without ad vancing the cause of race equality. THE NEGRO congressman now charges that the school bill is being witnneid until the Democratic leadership can be sure his amendment will not get to a yea-and-nay vote. He has no doubt that it would be adopted by a substantial majority if members were forced to go on record in this The process of avoiding a record vote on matters of hieh controversy is illustrated by what happened to an nti-discrimination amendment offered, by Rep. Marcantonio m the election year 194. Un a non-record vote, it was swamped 119 to 40, and when the yeas and nays were demanded there were not enough seconds. Demands in the House amendment defeated by a teller vote must be second pd bv one-fifth of the members present.

The films were shown in connection with Armed Forces day. Matter of TWO SIMPLE FACTS Washington Sen. Stuart Symington's armed forces sub committee on air power is in the process of demonstrating two simple facts. Fact one is that the Soviet Union is even today marked ly ahead of the stewart Aisop mem oi tne in tercontinental ballistic missile. Fact one has already been largely established, in the testi mony of Gen. Curtis LeMay, chief of the Strategic Air Com mand. But it will certainly be hammered home in future testi mony. So will fact two. THE method of hammering home these two fact's was astutely worked out in advance by Symington and his able sub committee counsel, Fowler Ham ilton. Other than the President himself, the real key figures in air power policy are Secretary of Defense Charles Wilson, Adm. Arthur Radford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Secretary of the Air Force Donald Quarles, and Air Force Chief of Staff Na- than Twining. But these men have not yet been called. Their turn will come at the end of the inquiry. By that time, Symington and Hamilton will have constructed a solid groundwork of fact by Questioning, largely in secret session, the men with operational rather than policy-making re sponsibilities LeMay; intelli gence chief Allen Dulles (who gave the committee the agreed national estimates of Soviet air atomic capabilities): the air de fense chief, Gen. Earle Partridge (whose still unreleased testi mony is in some ways more dis turbing than LeMay's); The Air Research and Development chief, Lt. Gen. Donald Putt; and others. THUS when the turn of the policy-makers comes, the sub committee will be in a position to ask them, not for opinions, but for facts. And, unless the policy makers wish to question the hon esty of the official national esti mates, or the veracity of such men as those listed above, facts one and two will be publicly ad mitted and established. One would have thought that a public acKnowieagmeni mat the Soviets had surpassed us in ballistic missile development, and were soon to surpass us in strategic air power, would have an explosive effect. Actually, certain factors are operating to Today and By Walter By WALTER LIPPMAN "Paris It is a bold man who. coming from the outside, pre sumes to talk about the French p r o b le m in North Africa For myself cannot see far into this prob lem, for which there is not, eo far as I know, any example anywhere else of a successful Walter Llppmann solution. Yet it is plain enough that a crucial test is about to begin. In about four weeks the French government in Paris will have deployed in Algeria the military forces about 400,000 men that it judges to be necessary to pacify the country and to con tain the active rebels m their mountain fastnesses. When that has been done as now planned, Paris plans to hold elections. From them there are to emerge Arab leaders willing and able to negotiate a peace. The terms of that peace are not published but they are based on the con cept of autonomy for the Alger ian Arabs within the framework of the French state. There are some, as good judges as any, who believe that this, of ficial policy will have been tested by the autumn. A VISITOR soon learns to re alize that he must not think of Algeria as another in that series of countries to be evacu ated in the series which began with Lebanon and Syria, went on to Indochina and has recently come to include Tunis and Mor occo. In a sense that these other countries never were, the French think of Algeria as a national in terest. That is because at least one-seventh of the people of Al geria and Frenchmen. Algeria is not an economic asset. Indeed it is a liability: It is to the large community of Frenchmen that the French at home feel them selves bound. There are signs of a mounting popular will to stand by them and not to let them be come a helpless minority in a sovereign Arab state. In the months to come there will be put to the test two ques tions: Can the rebellion be sub dued by a dense concentration of troops in the main populated areas? If they are subdued, can : the Arabs be induced to partici pate in elections and, shutting their ears to Cairo, to negotiate I fi ft. lit' "Iff Fact By Stewart Alsop reduce almost to the vanishing point the impact of the fact be ing established by the Syming ton sub-committee. For one thing, this is an elec tion year, and Symington is an often-mentioned possibility for the Democratic nomination. Thus it will be easy for the de fenders of the Administration's air power policy to brush off the whole issue as "just politics." ANOTHER factor is the secur ity system, which makes it possible to muffle or suppress entirely much of the solid, sup porting evidence. A third factor is the boom. Politicians of both parties attest that the American people, in these pleasant, pros perous times, just do not want to hear about such unhappy, far-off things as Soviet bombers and missiles and nuclear weapons. But the most important factor of all is, of course, the military reputation of Dwight D. Eisen hower. It is not difficult to im agine the almost earth-shaking effect of testimony by a LeMay that Soviet strategic air power would soon surpass our own, if a Harry S. Truman or an Adlai Stevenson had been President. Yet the LeMay testimony caused hardly a ripple, largely because the country has an al most unassailable confidence in the Presdient's leadership where defense is concerned. Even so, if only for the history books, it would be interesting ' to know just how it was decided to per mit the Soviets to overtake this country in aV-atomic power, the one field in which we have here tofore enjoyed superiority. WAS the issue squarely faced by the President, and debat ed at length in the National Se curity Council? Were the agreed intelligence estimates of future Soviet progress placed side by side with our own production schedules in the missile and stra tegic air fields? Did the Presi dent himself decide ,after pray erful consideration, that permit tine the United States Stragetic Air Command to become second best was a justified calculated risk? Or was the future level of our air-atomic power determined more or less nugger-mugger, without careful debate, in the face of the pressures for a bal anced budget in an election year? The evidence clearly sug gests that this is what really happened including the re markable fact that the Air Force has never even been asked to estimate the cost of matching or surpassing the Soviet air-atomic effort. Copyright, 1956,- New York Herald Tribune Inc. Tomorrow Lippmann for something less than sover eign independence? rriHE prospects of a negotiated settlement on the French terms are, it may be said, not very bright. At the least, assum ing there is no overwhelming and crushing defeat of the re bellion, the Paris government would have to offer extraordin ary concessions at the expense of the vested privileges of the French community in Algeria One can doubt whether the Paris government is strong enough to impose a military victory on the Arabs and at the same time a political settlement on the French community. It is this weakness of the government, by the way, which accounts for the Browing amount -of talk about drastic constitutional reforms. But, though the prospects are not bright, it would be a mis take to suppose that the unsuc- cess of the present policy would lead to abandonment and evacu ation. So at least it seems to me here in Paris. . THE French interest Is real. The French armv mieht fail to pacify all of Algeria but it cannot be defeated. There is not now an organized army opposing it, as there was in Indochina. If the official policy does not suc ceed, the issue might well be come one of holding more firmly the coastal region where the French community is predomi nant, rather than of pacifying the Arab hinterland. There is no great likelihood of a clear solution and a full settlement. There are too many Frenchmen settled among too many. Arabs for that, and in cer tain ways the basic problems of racial equality, cooperation and co-existence are even more re fractory than , they are in our own deep south. (C) 1956.

Although not as much group participation in the program was evident as might be hoped for, it is felt that a substantial major ity of the citizens of Jackson county now know what the Great Decisions program Most people consulted feel that the program is excellent and should be continued. Donald Hansen Chairman of Great Decisions Temporary Committee School Taxes To the Editor: An election will be held Monday, May 21, from to 8 p.m. in the rural school dis tricts to raise the 6 tax limita tion. There is an Oregon law that no higher than a 6 levy can be put on our property un less the people vote it. If this el ection was held at the time our regular election, this addi tional tax would be voted down but it is slipped through and very few know of this election and go and vote. Our taxes have mushroomed out until we can not pay them with this extrava gant school spending. We have a small piece of prop erty on the South Fork of Little Butte creek. The 1954-55 valua tion was $158: taxes were $1.87 in 1955-56 the valuation was $1 640 and the taxes $24.15, and now we get a post card the val uation for next year is $2,160, These taxes wiU be raised to 13 times as much as they were three years ago. This will raise the school tax accordingly. We spent $106 for material only on improvement of this place those three years. Wake up, peo ple, to what is being done to you Get your neighbors together and vote against raising the 6 tax limitation and our taxes and higher. Stop this waste of tax money. Dorr is Scheble Koute 1, Box 413 Medford, Ore. Reshuffle the World To the Editor: So-called great decisions are comparatively sim ple if you look at them from the standpoint of plain justice. But in that case, you yourself might have to give up something. How horrible! Anyone with half a mind could foresee the results of chas ing a million Arabs out of homes that had been theirs for two thousand years and planting Jews in their place. The Jews needed a homeland desperately but England and the United States of America didn't have to chase out Arabs to give it to them. But that cost England and the U. S. nothing only the Arabs. England ha3 no room on her island. Let the U.S.A. give the Jews one of our 48 states for their own, independent country say- California or New York. Give Oregon back to the Indians, wnom we treated as badly as ever the Jews were treated. Let the Indians have Oregon for their country. Chase out white people there are still 45 states where they can go. Give Texas back to Mexico from whom we sroie it in tne iirst place re member? We also stole Cali fornia from Mexico but might has always meant right to us, As for divided Germany, she or he (remember Der Vaterland und Deutschland Uber Alles? asked for it. Let Germany stay divided. Maybe next time she or he won't be so anxious to start another war. Let the Deep South secede from' the Union if they want they've been a pain in the neck ever since the Uncivil War. Let Boers from South Africa trek to the new Confederate States of America and live with their own kind in the Deep South and keep their White Supremacy; with an all-white population they would have to do their own dirty work. We could setUe the mal treated Negroes in northern states. Those who wished could emigrate to land left vacant by Boers. Australia screams for Immi grants chase Europeans out of Africa, maybe to Australia. May be Formosans could go there or to Africa those whom Chiang hasn't already massacred. No body asked Formosans what they wanted when Chiang grabbed their homeland. After native Formosans are safely off, sink Formosa with Chiang and his rabble on it. There won't be any question of which China to seat in the United Nations. If Chiang and his cohorts had been decent they would - probably still be bossing China. Let every country into the U.N. and make the U.S.A. mind its own business, not everybody else's. Then the rest of us might have peace. - Mrs. Edith Ingle, . 338 Bessie St., ' Medford, Ore. Memorial Suggestion To the Editor: A little over a year ago, the executive commit- POTLUCK (By M-T Staff and Contributors) Eight-year-old Michael Bort- olazzo, son of Mr. and Mrs Mario Bortolazzo, Route 1, Jack sonville, went fishing on the Applegate near McKee bridge with his father the other day despite discouraging reports of poor fishing" from the river, Mike had never caught a fish before, The elder Bortolazzo didn't get a bite. But Mike landed 10-inch trout AND a 27-inch steelhead weighing 5W pounds. To prove it, here's a picture of Mike and the steelhead. Mike is the one on the right. Things were in stato of con fusion around the Mail Tri bune office Friday night, as a score or more workers labor ed to collect, tabulate and broadcast election returns. ' At one point, about 11 p.m.. a box of hamburgers was brought in for the rapidly firing and hungering workers. As one of them was polishing off his first sandwich and reaching for another, he was struck by a thought it was Friday. ' Ha was taken aback for a moment, but then an nounced loudly that ho had just switched over to daylight saving time, that it was now tee of the Oregon Heart associa tion agreed that all memorial contributions to . the Oregon Heart association would be ap plied to research projects involv ing cardiovascular disease. During 1955 the association has allocated more than $13,000 in memorial contributions to this great work and in the first quar ter of 1956, $7,022.24 has been received and designated. Nat urally those of us working with the association are hopeful that the amount of funds available for research will continue to increase during the coming year, While this memorial program certainly nas received an ex cellent response from all parts of the state, the records clearly show that most memorial contri butions are not continued be yond the initial remembrance. With Memorial day approach ing, I would just like to suggest that this Memorial program of the Oregon Heart association is an excellent way of remembering those who have been claimed by disease of the heart. Marina S. Gates, Memorial Chairman - Oregon Heart association, . Medford, Ore. More About Myrtle To the Editor: In reference to my recent letter on the Oregon myrtle and also in reply to "E. M. F.," who seemed to disagree somewhat with what I had to say: I stated facts only, and those are, m my belief, the final an swer to any question. I was born and raised here in Southern Oregon and have made an intensive study of dendrol ogy (that part of botany pertain ing to tree identification, etc.) and I know whereof I speak. E. M. F. says he has read about the myrtle tree for years. Has he ever considered reading books written by recognized authori ties on the subject, or does he figure it more informative to take the word of "chamber of commerce" circulars? The most beautiful and largest specimens of the tree are, as a rule, found here in Oregon, for which we can be proud, but the tree is considered by botanists as a "spill-over" of the tropical flora and grows practically throughout the state of Cali fornia. It certainly does not in Oregon. To say that the Holy Land tree and the Oregon tree are one and the same does not contradict me at aU! It disputes the findings of men of science who devote their lives to the study of this subject. M. F., if you're ever in Sac ramento, please visit the capitol grounds. On one side you will find an umbellularia Californica (our myrtle) on the other side you'll find a specimen of the Holy Land myrtle. Take one good look and smell a crushed leaf from each one. There'll be no more question as to their being separate species. Eugene L. Parker, 128 Chestnut St., Medford, Ore. Mf If iTlh&i r? toll A . past midnight, and everything was all right. One team of election returns collectors, venturing forth in the dark and rain equipped with writing pads and flashlights, searched long and hard for one particularly obscure voting place. At last they spied a house with a light in the window, and behind the window a group of women seated around a table, intent and busy. Aha!! our work ers thought, the counting board! They pounded on the door, only to find they'd broken up a bridge game. e The Southern Pacific railroad Is just a teeniy bit sensitive these days about references lo its non-existent passenger train service on this rout. However, they went along with advance publicity about a special excursion train which went through here Saturday morning. The SP's San Francisco of fice even went so far as to send out a news story on the event which proved how big corporations can sometimes get fouled up about their own holdings. The following is quoted, verbatim, so help us, (except for the capitaliiaion) from that news release: 1 "Saturday, the special train will wind through the colorful Siskiyous on SP's original main line through Ashland. Medford, Grant's (sic) Pass and Roseburg, THEN run down the green Rogue River Valley to an overnight stop at Eu gene." No further comment. Headline in the Journal: "Talent Nine Repeats Again." Again, and again, and again? We have it on excellent authority that there is a farm in the valley which has a horse which thinks he is an automobile. He has the run of the place, we are told, including the yard in front of the house, - where he is helpful in keep ing the grass trimmed. In the mornings, instead of being in the barn where a . good horse should be, he frequently is found standing in the garage. Three men, a German, a Dutchman and a Scot . planned to have a party. Each was to bring something. The German brought the drinks, the Dutch man brought the food, the Scot brought his brother. A Medford Ambulance ser vice attendant drove, his ve hicle to Prospect last week on business. While he was up there, someone in Prospect called lo Medford for an am bulance for a logging accident victim, and was assured an ambulance would be sent at once. Meanwhile, someone else in Prospect found the ambul ance that was already there, and sent it to the scene of the accident. It arrived about 10 minutes after the first call had been placed. "Boy." said the man who'd called Medford for an ambul ance, "boy, I'm sure glad I didn't ride up here with you."
