The majority report has not yet been received. Until it has been, FINAL judgment as far as the Senate probe is concerned probably should be re served. AS EXPECTED the minority report represents the Republican defense to the Democratic charge of "mining for timber" under minerals. The two mam so-called "deal" was a perfectly proper and entirely lawful transaction, and the Democrats are claiming otherwise for political purposes only. As has been stated in this column many times be fore, we never believed there was anything unlawful in the sense of anything criminal, in the transaction, but we did not agree and cism from the Democratic side of the aisle, had no justification in fact, and were advanced for political purposes ONLY. e IT ALL WAS, we believe, but it represented a policy and should be corrected by new legislation covenng such matters. In the first place the new legislation should recog nize what this minority report fails to properly em phasize, namely: that this mine was not an ordinary mine, but was within the U.S. forest reserve. In other words it was in an area, laws should not apply, or at least consideration should be given to the fact that the PARAMOUNT interest in such restricted government lands, should not be mining, anymore than it should be oil-prospecting, but should be concerned preservation, conservation ber. LI AD some such law been in force then the original ruling of both the U.S. Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management, that 15 of the 23 mine patents, asked by the Al Sarena company not be granted would have been But without such a provision, the Al Sarena com pany, paid no attention to these decisions, went else where to their home in Alabama for their mineral assays (which of course were favorable), made their appeal to the friendly and cooperative Department of the Interior and did not green light to go ahead while the getting is good. That even the members of the minority group had some qualms about the propriety of this procedure is indicated by the following extract from their report, quote : ' "The mining laws require the Issuance of patents if there is a sufficient mineral showing to warrant the taking of additional risks or loss. Assurances of economic or profit able operation or known mineral reserve, are not re quired under the mining laws which are applicable in the Al Sarena case. The majority know that many mining claims have been lawfully patented with no history of pro duction whatever." TN OTHER words if the A no intention of operating wished to secure these added patents toTnineral land so they could harvest the government timber thereon, at a cost to them of only $5 an acre, that could be done. For if the mineral showing was sufficient" to warrant the taking of additional risks or loss and who would decide the nsks eral content except the Al the gates .would be down and the sky the limit. Well, as often remarked before in this depart ment this is "nice work if you can get it." And thanks to the quick action of the Interior Department under Mr. Douglas McKay, and the inability of the U.S. b orest Service and the Bureau of Land Management by law to prevent it, the Al "THE majority report of the that because of these ents allowed Al barena be Unless the majority report a legal standpoint than neither the Department ot Department under the present administration will pay any attention to this directive. If they make any com ment it is safe to say they report and dismiss it all as Well no ono can deny there is politics in this con troversial case, but in this presidential year there is politics in most everything ing no exception. For example the report - A ? 1 1 l- em, mining laws conciuo.es as ionows, quote : "The general soundness of the law has been demon strated over 80 years and the Democratic party did not amend it in the 20 years in which that party was in full control of the executive branch of the government." What has that got to logs: Ihe Democratic party during its 20 years did not pass many laws that after nearly four years of Republican rule no doubt The past is past. What and future.

Turkish Intervention Stymies Settlement By CHARLES M. McCANN United Press Correspondent Turkey has added a new com plication to the Cyprus dispute. Britain last week, after long study, drafted a new offer to the Greek Cy priots who de mand that the island be giv en to Greece. Then, at the moment when Prime Minis ter Anthony Charles uccann den was pre paring to announce the offer in Parliament, the Turkish govern ment intervened. It said emphatically, in diplo matic representations to Brit ain, that its own interests ir the island and the interests of Turkish Cypriots 'must be pro tected fully, As the result, the announce ment of the new British offer has been delayed, It was announced that Field Marshal Sir Gerald Templer, chief of the British Imperial gen eral staff, would fly to Ankara, the Turkish capital, next week. At the same time, Britain started consultations with the United States on the new com plication. It is understood that Templer will try to convince the Turks that .they have nothing to fear from the viewpoint of their na tional security. London dispatches say that Britain hopes that the United States may use its influence to soften the Turkish attitude on both the military and political aspects of its offer. But Eden is reported to have made up his mind to announce JL Administration Faces Problem on Revision Of Security Washington (CQ) Two men named Cain and Cole may prove responsible for knocking what once was the politically-explosive issue of "security risks" right out of the 1956 campaign. This could happen if as now seems possible the Eisenhower Administration substantially re vamps the federal employee se curity program that has been under heavy Democratic attack since its adoption three years ago. Fof 18 months, however, the strongest criticisms of the pro gram have been voiced by a Re publican ex-Sen. Harry P. Cain (Wash.), President Eisenhower's own appointee to the Subversive Activities Control Board. Got To See Ike Consigned to the Administra tion's dog-house by Presidential Assistant Sherman Adams for not playing on the team, Cain finally got in to see the Presi dent June 8. According to Cain, the President was impressed by his arguments. Even more impressive to the Administration was the Supreme Court's 6-3 decision June 11 in the case of an obscure employee of the Food and Drug adminis tration Kendrick M. Cole. The Court ruled, in effect, that as an employee in a "non-sensitive" job in a "non-sensitive" agency, Cole had been wrongfully fired under provisions of the security program. Attorney General Herbert BrowneU Jr. promptly ordered government agencies to restore to duty 17 employees currently suspended from "non-sensitive" jobs, and to hold off on any firings of such federal workers "pending further study" of the Cole decision. What this adds up to is an op portunity for the Administra tion to take the initiative and to revise the security program in such a way as to muffle the Dem ocratic attack. Cut Two Ways Such a step, however, would cut two ways. In 1954, Vice President Richard M. Nixon led the Republican Congressional campaign with the repeated claim that the Administration had removed from the federal payroll "thousands of Commu nists, perverts and other security risks." Democrats charged Nixon with " playing the "numbers game" by suggesting that all "security risks" were tainted with subversion. But most polit ical observers conceded the ef fectiveness of Nixon's campaign claim, and President Eisenhower congratulated him for his role. Moreover, some Democrats as well as Republicans are enthu siastic supporters of the Admin istration's across-the-board pro gram, under which the term "se curity risk" is applied to all per sons whose employment is not "clearly consistent" with the na tional security. This category in cludes misfits, liars and perverts as well as traitors. Following the Court's June 11 decision, bills to circumvent the ruling were introduced by Sens. Karl E. Mundt (R-S.D.), Edward Martin (R-Pa.), Norris Cotton (R N.H.), William F. Knowland (R- Offer to Cypriots his offer this week, without awaiting the outcome of nego tiations with Turkey. A Quiet Policy Turkey has had little to say about the long, bitter Cyprus dispute which involves Greek Cypriots and the Greek govern ment. However, the Turkish govern ment has issued occasional state ments which have made its atti tude plain. These statements point out that Cyprus is 43 miles from the Turkish coast and 683 miles from the Greek mainland. They point out that 100,000 of the 500,000 people on Cyprus are Turks. They point out that Tur key ruled Cyprus for centuries but that Greece never owned it. They say that the island is of enormous strategic impor tance to Turkey, and none to Greece. In recent weeks also, there have been intimations that Tur key wiU not consent in any cir cumstances to the surrender of Cyprus to Greece, and that it will land troops on the island if necessary. It is reported that the British will (1) offer Cyprus a new constitution, providing a wide measure of home rule, and (2) promise "self-determination' within 10 to 15 years. Whether Turkey will agree to this remains to be seen. Cer tainly, the offer will have to protect the rights of the Turkish Cypriot minority and convince Turkey that its own defense in terests are safe. Turkey and Greece are both members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. They are linked also in a Balkan treaty ' with Yugoslavia. Program Calif .), Joseph R. McCarthy (R- Wis.) and James O. Eastland CD- Miss.), Chairman of the Powerful Senate Judiciary committee. A similar bill was introduced in the House by Rep. Francis E. Walter (D-Pa.), Chairman of the Un-American Activities commit tee. Thus an Administration de cision to "liberalize" the secur ity program would meet the al most certain opposition of key legislators of both parties, and would deprive Republicans as well as Democrats of a strong campaign issue. May Do Nothing These factors may, in the final analysis, persuade the Adminis tration to sit tight and do noth ing, or adopt only minor revi sions. Arguing for such a course is the further fact that the Com mission on Government Security, set up a year ago to survey the entire security field, has just asked Congress to extend the deadline for its report another six months, untU June, 1957. The question of "sensitive versus "non - sensitive" jobs, raised in the Cole decision, is only one of several major issues involved in the present security program. Others concern the use of one standard to measure the loyalty, security and suitabil ity of government employees; the practice of suspending with out pay persons charged as "se curity risks even though they eventually may be cleared after many months of proceedings; and the many questions relating to the due process of security procedures as such. The security program is based on President Eisenhower's Exec utive Order 10450 of April 27, 1953, which did away with the loyalty program operated by the Truman Administration since 1947. The 1953 order, in turn, was based in large part on a 1950 law which gave to the heads of 11 government agencies the power to suspend and fire em ployees in their "absolute discre tion and when deemed necessary in the interest of national secur ity." Extended Law The 1953 order simply extend ed the application of this law to all government agencies and em ployees. Although the Supreme Court's opinion in the Cole case specifically excluded a ruling on the validity of this extension, it all but ruled it illegal. The ma jority argued, in effect, that the meaning of "national security,' as used in the 1950 law, was lim ited to those activities "that are directly concerned with the pro tection of the nation from in ternal subversion or foreign ag gression and not those which contribute to the strength of the nation onlythrough their impact on the general welfare. Should Congress pass any of the bills mentioned above, this distinction would lose its force. But it would stiU leave the Ad ministration with a political di lemma to revamp or not to re vamp the employee security pro gram. (Copyright 1956, Congressional Quarterly) Turkey also is a member of the Middle Eastern Treaty Or ganization along with Britain, Iraq, Iran and Pakistan. It happens that Turkey is the most powerful Middle Eastern country. It is fully aligned with the Western Allies. But unless it is convinced that its interests are protected in any Cyprus set tlement, it might cause a lot of trouble. In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS The Oregon legislative interim committee on elections has been giving some thought in this in terim year (an "interim" year is the year in between Oregon's biennial legislative sessions) to the subject of campaign contri butions to candidates for public office. Oregon, of course along with most other states and the federal government has laws regulat ing the giving of money to candi dates to help them finance their campaigns, but the committee leans to the view that these laws are easily evaded and that sub stantial sums of money can enter political channels, ANONY MOUSLY. If that is true, it says in a re cent preliminary report, our present laws on campaign contri butions place a premium on dis honesty and if that is the case something should certainly be done about it. A T ANY rate, the interim com- mittpp tnrnArl ho npnl.m over to its research staff, which has come up with some conclu sions. There are three basic courses of action, the research ers say, that might be taken by the legislature. They are: 1. Declare that the problem is one that is essentially inappro priate for legislative action and that the present relatively use less regulations should be re pealed. 2. Strengthen and clarify pres ent law by requiring PRE-ELECTION FINANCIAL REPORTS and by putting enforcement teeth into the legislation. 3. Completely change the ba sis on which political campaigns in Oregon are financed by enact ing regulations that will tend to be self-policing and will assure fun reporting. TTAVING named these alterna- fives, the committee's re searchers then point out objec tions to them. No. 1, they assert, would be difficult to explain to the satis faction of the average voter (who would want to know why all the holders on campaign gifts were being taken off and would natur ally suspect skulduggery). No. 2, they say, would be a "mere palliative" that would not really provide the desired re sults. No. 3, they add, would encoun ter powerful political opposition from those who would resist a major change in traditional ways of doing political business. 'T'HE researchers, of course, are playing no favorites. They're making it plain that they're merely pointing out the roads that are open and leaving it to the legislature to choose the one to be followed if it is decided to make the trip. Personally, I agree with their conclusions as to No. 1 and No. 3, but I'm inclined to disagree with them on No. 2 which I think might be a pretty good idea. The substance of it is to let ANY BODY" contribute anything he wishes to ANYBODY RUNNING FOR OFFICE. Let it be.spent any way the candidate getting the money wants to spend it. But Make him report WELL BE FOR THE ELECTION every cent he has received and where it came from. THEN If it can be proved that he fibbed in his pre-election report on how much he spent and where it came from, DISQUALIFY HIM FOR THE OFFICE IF HE IS ELECTED. If he isn't elected, it wouldn't matter much. A S THE interim committee's researchers point out, pres ent Oregon laws on campaign contributions .are easily evaded. Money can be contributed under dummy names. And so on. Worst of all, nobody knows until AFT ER THE ELECTION how much has been spent by each candidate and where it came from. AFTER ELECTION, it's too late to do anything about it. But if campaign contributions had to be reported BEFORE ELECTION it would be differ ent. They would then be NEWS. They would be widely printed and widely broadcast. The voters would know before voting who was doing what in the way of spending to get votes, and where the money had come from. They could use their own judgment as to whether it was good money or bad money and whether or not too much of it had been spent for some particular candidate or candidates. Matter of Fact uy j0sePh aisp THREAT TO THE ALLIANCE , Washington This reporter has just returned from a long journey of inquiry in the trou- bled Middle East. The pic ture there is ominous, very nearly as omi nous as the Far Eastern picture in the years just aft er the Second World War. .umud Aisop unless presenr trends can somehow be reversed, the free world must eventually expect a Middle Eeastern disas ter on the approximate scale of the disastrous loss of China to the Communists. It may seem paradoxical. therefore, that this same Middle Eastern journey has firmly con vinced this reporter that the central problem of American foreign policy is not in the Mid dle East at all, but in Britain. TPHE second partner in the - Western Alliance, the stout hearted ally that fought so long alone, the brother nation which originated so many of our own institutions that is the common picture of Britain. It is an ac curate picture, but it has led to a pernicious tendency, not least in the State Department, to take Britain for granted. If the Middle Eastern problem has any meaning at all, it very clearly means that Britain can not prudently be taken, for granted any longer. Britain can not be taken for granted because the real foun dations of the British structure are still colonial and imperial; and these foundations are now in grave danger. Next to the emergence of the new Soviet empire, the liquidation of the old Western European empires has been the chief drama of the post-war decade. And this dra ma is now becoming a desper ately serious matter for Britain the preeminent imperial power. rpHE principal danger to Brit - ain is not the loss of essen- Eleanor Roosevelt Writes of Medford After Recent Visit (Editor's note: After Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt visited in Medford recently as speaker at the sixth annual Roosevelt Memorial dinner, she wrote about her experiences here in her "My Day" column. Ex cerpts from that column as it appeared in the Coos Bay Times are reprinted below). By ELEANOR ROOSEVELT New York . . In this small town (Medford) the citizens have held a memorial dinner every spring for six years in memory of my husband. Five times be fore I had to refuse invitations to attend, so I was very happy that I could go this year. There were 1,200 people pres ent and many of them must have come from quite a distance, for Medford is not large. The valley is a beautiful one where fruit grows in abundance and I always have associated it in my mind with the wonderful pears and other fruit shipped by my friends, Harry and David, all over the U.S. Likes Hospitality As we flew there, we saw the snow-covered mountain tops, and the visibility was good enough for us to see a number of the really high mountains. I spent the night with Mrs. Ed ward Kelly, enjoying the warmth of her hospitality and the pleasure of seeing an old friend, Mrs. Nan Honeyman, who came down from Portland. I did one television appear ance on the way from the plane to Mrs. Kelly's home, and Tues day morning the reporters ap peared to ask me questions about Adlai Stevenson and his candi dacy, as well as about my feel ing for Sen. Wayne Morse. Speaks for Morse I was happy to be able to speak for Senator Morse, as I think no one can question his integrity and courage. The fact that he and Sen. Herbert Leh man cast the only two votes against Sen. James O. EasUand to head up the Senate Judiciary committee speaks volumes for the kind of a man he is. I met with the American As sociation for the United Nations group in Medford, and received a gift of $100 for the National Association for the UN which I deeply appreciate. Tuesday morning I left Med ford by plane for San Francisco. Lumber Company Files Circuit Court Suit The Jackson Creek Lumber company has filed a complaint in the circuit court against Rich ard F. Souza, "Jacksonville. The company is suing for $1,400 which it claims Souza has failed to pay on a promis sory note made Sept. 8, 1952, plus 6 per cent interest per annum from that date, and $500 attorney's fees. in tial strategic bases overseas. such as Cyprus, Aden, Ceylon and Singapore. The danger in all these bases is very great in deed. But the principal danger. the really fatal danger, is the loss of the raw material sources in the Middle East and Malaya and elsewhere, which Britain's overseas bases are designed to protect. Britain pays high wages. Britain suffers from relatively low labor productivity. Britain lives by exports. Therefore the mere access to essential raw ma terials, the mere ability to buy oil and rubber and tin, for in stance, on the open market, will not preserve Britain as a going concern. Britain actually has to own and make a profit from her overseas raw material sources. That is what now makes the dif ference between British eco nomic survival and irremediable British bankruptcy. Malayan rubber and tin are not only important to Britain be cause Eritain consumes tin and rubber. They are mainly im portant because Malayan tin and rubber contribute about 18 per cent of the entire hard currency earnings of the Sterling area. The oil enterprises in the Middle - East are not only vital to Britain because Britain desperately needs oil. They are mainly vital because the profit from British I ownership of the Middle Eastern on enterprises in enect pays for all the oil Britain consumes. rpHAT is the true measure of British vulnerability. That is why Britain is the real objec tive of the flank attack which the Kremlin is now stimulating, and in large part directing, in all the ex- and semi-colonial countries on this side of the iron curtain and especially in the Middle East. And that also helps to explain why Britain's reac tions to this flank attack, as in Cyprus, have lately seemed un wise to many Americans. The British policy-makers un derstand the danger of British bankruptcy, which means the end of Britain's career as a ma jor power. As Sir Anthony Eden has said, they are con vinced that the loss of Cyprus will be only tho preliminary to the loss of the Middla Eastern oil sources. So the British have reacted violently, too violently in this reporter's opinion. But so should we react very violently, if we felt hostile hands groping for our jugular. In these circumstances, it is amazing and pretty terrifying to come home, and to discover that the State Department's chief parlor game seems to be smug carping at the British pol icy in such places as Cyprus and Buraimi. a VyHAT does it matter if Brit " ain's struggles to defend her own jugular have become pretty convulsive, compared to the hard fact that this same Britain also happens to be the jugular of the United States? All of the American post-war foreign policy, as begun by Tru man and carried on by Eisen hower, will rapidly crumble in to ruin if Britain ceases to be a major power. Even America's national de fense is squarely dependent upon Britain: By a strange de cision of the Eisenhower admin istration, the Strategic Air Com mand, our only real weapon of defense, has been kept in abso lute dependence on overseas bases; and the most important of those bases are British. In short, a good deal less carp ing, and a great deal more cre ative ard comradely approach to Britain's present peril, would now seem to be rather urgently indicated.
