More About Parks
We're sort of a bug about parks.
We are fond of Hawthorne park, and the old city
park next to the Library. We approve the planning
commission's recommendation that the 22 acres next
to the new east side fire station be dedicated for park
purposes.
(The city also needs another park on the west
side.)
We are enamoured of Prescott park, and hope the
highway commission approves the proposal to make
it a state park. Ben Hur Lampman state park, on the
Rogue near Gold Hill; McLeod and Casey and Tou-
velle higher on the river, and Tub Springs state way
side on the Green Springs all nil us witn pnae.
FOR THE man or family with time and money and
physical fortitude, the wide open spaces. of the
Cascade wilderness are available.
But for the average family, about the only ready
chance at pleasant, outdoor recreation lies with the
narks citv. state and federal.
And have you noticed? there are more families
about. Ergo, the more parks, the better for all of us.

not technically parks, serve

due for extensive improvement to trie tune 01 moie

it is visited by thousands
from all over the world each year; that for its great

How the world has changed.
Back in the days when the
Hatfields and the McCoys got
likkered up on white mule and
grabbed their shootin" arns and
went out and made sieves of
each other, these institutions
were customarily located away
out in the backwoods, where
there would be plenty of oppor
tunities to pick off the reve-
nooers on their way in.
Now, following modern bust
ness principles, they're moving
them down into the cities where
they will be close to the big con
suming markets. Under mod
ern competitive conditions, the
moonshiner can no longer afford
a long- haul from the point of
origin to the point of distribu
tion.
CPEAKING of the way things
used to be as compared with
the way they are now, there is
the new Richmond -San Rafael
bridge spanning San Francisco
bay, which is scheduled to be
opened to traffic at one minute
after midnight on the morning
of Sept. 1. Its cost is sixty mil
lion dollars.
Back in the days a little more
than a century ago when Capt.
John C. Fremont and Kit Carson
were quartered in an old house
in San Rafael while waiting for
the Bear Flag republic to be
proclaimed, 60 million dollars
was a lot of money.
If Captain Fremont had said
then to Scout Carson: "Kit, the
time will come when they will
build a bridge from the other
side of the bay over there to tnis
place where we are sitting now,
and it will cost $60,000,000,"
rut, in nis unlettered way,
would have replied: "Hell, Cap,
that's more than the whole West
is worth; there AIN'T that much
money."
And, in those days, he would
have been right.

Unveiling The Kremlin Wives
Bachelor trips abroad by So
viet Russian bigwigs may be on
the way out. European diplo
mats hear that some Kremlin
wives will start to accompany
their husbands on missions to
hurt Stevenson badly, both with
Northern liberals and with the
Southerners. In a desperate
effort to put him over the top
every last Stevenson vote has
been cajoled into line. But the
total is still short of the 687
votes needed to win.
At this point, the convention
realizes that it must choose be
tween Harriman and Missouri's
Sen. Stuart Symington. North
ern Stevenson delegates begin
breaking to Harriman, while
Southerners, conservatives, and
border-state men shift to Syming
ton. A deadlock threatens.
Then there is a dramatic in
tervention. Symington's fellow
Missourian, former President
Harry S. Truman, choosing his
words and his platform care
fully, comes out hard and strong
for Harriman. He bestows on
Harriman the accolade as the
true inheritor of the New Deal
and the Fair Deal, the only avail
able candidate who can be de
pended upon to defend labor
and the minorities.
A MONG the Northerners and
liberal groups, who control
the majority of the delegates,
Truman's accolade starts a band
wagon movement to Harriman
After this, the dream becomes a
little dim. Perhaps Symington
will accept second place if so,
he will almost certainly be of
fered it. Perhaps the Southern
ers will walk out if so, they
will deliver the huge Negro vote
in the key industrial states to
Harriman.
At any rate, Harriman is tri
umphantly nominated, and after
a hard-hitting, strongly Fair
Deal campaign, triumphantly en
ters the White House. The dream
is, of course, only a dream. In
all probability the reality will
be far different. But the dream
is at least interesting, because
it tells a lot about the shrewd
and carefully calculated Harri
man strategy.
The Harriman strategy rests
squarely on two bases. Base one
is Harriman's all-out advocacy
of civil rights. Harriman's stand
on the issue is strongly indorsed
by the intellectual liberal groups
which still influence Democratic
conventions. Especially in view
of the Eisenhower administra
tion's record on the issue, the
Negro and minority vote in the
big states has never been more
crucial, as the big state profes
sionals are wholly aware. And
the big state pros will have even
more influence than the liberals.
Tlf OREOVER, a battle over the
civil rights plank in the plat
form could well have two ef
fects. It could force Stevenson
into a position where he could
hardly avoid alienating either
the Northern liberal-labor bloc
or his Southern supporters. And
it could tend to identify Syming
ton as the candidate of the South
erners and conservatives, who
simply do not control a majority
of the votes.
The second base of the Harri
man strategy is, of course, Tru
man. Truman is far too shrewd
to commit himself before he has
to, and he will certainly not at
tempt to stop Stevenson's bid for
the nomination. But if the Ste
venson bid fails, the Harriman
strategists hope and believe that
Truman will give the Harriman
candidacy just the added lift it
will then require.
As the Harriman strategists
frankly admit, this two-pronged
strategy has its weaknesses. For
one thing, Stevenson is very far
out ahead. And his civil rights
program is being fashioned by
Sen. Hubert Humphrey of Min
nesota, Sen. Herbert Lehman of
New York and Mrs. Franklin
D. Roosevelt. The result may not
please the Southerners, but it
will be hard to persuade the
Northern liberals that this trio
is dedicated to racial reaction.
e
f OREOVER, although Truman
has been exceedingly friend
ly towards the Harriman can
didacy, he has made no firm
commitments. It remains to be
seen whether the ex-President
will go all out for Harriman, if
it becomes clear that a Harri
man nomination would split the
party in two.
Yet the Harriman candidacy
also has one very great strength
the simple fact that Harriman
really does believe he could de
feat President Eisenhower. Such
confidence, coupled with bold
and stubborn determination
which is a hallmark of Harri
man's character, is an enormous
asset in this election year.

Russian Magazine
Will Be on Sale in
This Country Soon
Washington (CQ) Early-
next month United States news
stands are expected to place on
sale, for the first time, a slick
life-size magazine extolling the
Soviet Union.
Called "USSR," the heavily
illustrated monthly will be the
counterpart of "Amerika," the
Russian-language magazine the
U.S. Information Agency plans
to start distributing in Moscow
and other Soviet centers about
the same time.
"Amerika," which was cir
culated in the Soviet Union from
1945 to 1952 when the U.S. sus
pended publication after charg
ing Soviet authorities with pre
venting its distribution, will re
appear in much the same for
mat. Suspended in 19S2
But "USSR," Congressional
Quarterly learned, will bear
greater resemblance to "Amer
ika" than it does to its own pre
decessor, the USSR Information
Bulletin. The latter publication
was suspended in 1952 on orders
of the U.S. government when
"Amerika" was dropped. '
Both of the new magazines
will be approximately the same
size (14V4xl4 inches), will
emphasize illustrations arid use
of color, and will avoid "poli
tics." "USSR" will be edited in Mds
cow and printed in New York.
As yet, no sale price has been
set, and the Soviet Embassy in
Washington is still working on
arrangements for newsstand dis
tribution. Although this Is hand
led by private concerns, it is
safe to assume that the U.S. gov
ernment will take an interest if
distributors should refuse to
handle "USSR."
An official Soviet agency, So
yuzpechat, will handle distribu
tion of "Amerika," which will
be printed in West Berlin and
willfell for 5 rubles per copy, or
about $1.25 at the official ex
change rate. Even at this price,
the old "Amerika" reportedly
sold like hot cakes, then con
tinued to circulate widely.
Both Limited
By terms of the U.S.-Soviet
agreement announced Dec. 23,
1955, both magazines will be
limited to a total of 52,000
copies per issue 50,000 for
sale, plus 2,000 for distribution

others.

An Oakland judge suggests

changed our ways of thinking
about traffic accidents and the
major cause of accidents

traffic safety conference. in Cali

Guiness told rural area repre
sentatives of 11 Western states
that America might soon have
to think in terms of "driver se
lectivity." ,
The time may come, he warn
ed, when there is not room on
the highways for everybody who
might want to drive a car.
"Rather than ask highway en
gineers to accommodate an in
creasingly greater number of
cars," he said, "I think we
would be better off if we thought
in terms of making our highways
available only to competent
drivers.

Algeria is France's No. 1 prob
lem. Added to the determina
tion of the Algerian national
ists in combatting a formidable
French army is the fact that
Egypt and other Arab countries
I are openly supporting the reb
els.
Pineau would like Dulles to
promise France its unqualified '
upport on its Algerian policy.
This policy is to bring peace to
Algeria first, by force if nec
essary, and only then to nego
tiate an agreement under which
Algeria would have self-govern
ment but not outright indepen
dence. The Arab countries now
threaten to try to put the Al
gerian problem before the Unit
ed Nations Security CounciL
The word from UN headquar
ters is that the United States, as
of now, leans toward a hands
off policy. That means that it
would abstain from a vote if the
question of putting Algeria on
the councils agenda came up.
Abstention would be, to some
extent, support of France. Sev
en favorable votes in the 11-na-tion
council would be needed to
put Algeria on the program.
It is indicated that t h i
would not be good enough for
France. It wants outright sup
port.
Reappraisal Urged
The Arabs will be watching
the Pineau-Dulles talks closely.
The Syrian ambassador in
Washington warned the State
Department Friday., in the
name of the nine-nation Arab
League, not to support France.
Pineau has been urging ever
since he become foreign minist
er, on the formation of Premier
Guy Mollet's government Feb.
1, that the Allies reappraise
their policy toward Russia. Pin
eau dates a basic -change in Rus
sian policy from the period im
mediately following Josef Stal
in's debunking at the Communist
party congress in February.
On March 2, in his first big
speech as foreign minister, Pin
eau expressed his "profound dis
agreement" with major aspects
of Allied policy, especially to
ward Russia.
Pineau is a firm friend of the
United States. France has not
yet come out of the ordeal it ,
went through in World War IL
It wants to end the Algerian re
bellion, and wants the firm mor
al support of its friends in end
ing it. It wants to end the cold
war, and believes that a new
approach to Russia may lead to
that.

traitor and went out and wept
bitterly.
Christ was soon crulcified and
the third day He arose from the
dead. At once He went to Peter
and forgave the man. Forgive
whoever wrongs you, had been
Christ's teaching. Being restor
ed, Peter ever after was Christ's
strong man. And you? Believe
in your heart that Christ died
for your every sin and Christ
will also make you His new
creation.
