Be Informed
There is only one full week remaining before elec
tion. There are seven state measures, a score of candi
dates, state, national and local, and six city measures
on the ballot.
Time is getting short, but the intelligent voter is
the informed voter. Sample ballots are available. So
is the voter's pamphlet. So is the Voters Information
bulletin of the League of Women Voters.
Be sure to vote. E.A.
Annexation
The citizens and voters of the Berrydale and
Grandview-Kenwood areas will decide a week from
tomorrow whether or not they wish these areas to be
come a part of the city of Medford.
On wriat should they base their individual decis
ions? On their own self-interest, obviously. That is the
true basis of any vote in any election. The only diffi
culty comes, occasionally, in finding out what the true
and long-range self-interest is.
IN THIS case, the issue is pretty clear cut.
The choice is between remaining "in the country"
(with all its advantages and disadvantages), and com
ing "into the city" (with all its advantages and dis
advantages). Two of the most attractive things about "country"
life in the past have been lower taxes and more elbow
room. In the case of the three districts involved, these
advantages have diminished almost to the vanishing
point, for many sections there are about as heavily
populated as most city neighborhoods, and the com
bination of special district taxes, fees and higher in
surance premiums have brought the cost of civic ser
vices there almost as high as and in some cases
higher than living in the city.
A MONG the advantages
are the availability of
sewers, lights, and so on)
ery through which they can
tection, better fire protection with a resultant de
crease in fire insurance premiums, and planning and
zoning.
It is only through the weighing of these and other
considerations that the voters can decide whether or
not annexation would be the best for them, personally.
But there are other considerations involved in ar
riving at a decision as .to
best be served.
How about the health
How will the added availability services benefit (or
not benetit) the community? And how will the gen
eral well-being of the community affect me?
Ihese are questions

HOW FAR IN EASTERN
EUROPE?
The insurrection in Hungary
has raised the question whether
the anti-Russian movement in
Eastern Eu
rope will stop
at Titoism or
become an
anti - Commu
nist uprising.
Nagy, who
is the Hungar
ian Tito, was
not able, it
appears, to
cope with the
Waiter Llppmaiui
rebels in Budapest, and was
compelled to call upon the Red
Army to quell the uprising.
There have been demonstrations
in Warsaw which went beyond
Titoism, being both anti-Russian
and anti-Communist. But in Po
land the Gomulka government
seems to have had enough pres
tige and enough police power of
its own to deal with the trouble
without calling upon the Rus
sians. We are, we must realize, poor
ly informed about a situation
which is in large part hidden
from sight and in rapid flux.
But, as a working hypothesis, I
would say that the critical place
to watch is Poland, and that in
Poland the immediately critical
issue is whether the Gomulka
regime and tlfe Kremlin are able
to work out what amounts to a
new alliance. ,
POLAND is of all the satellites
tho f-ritir-al rnnnlru -Rntrt
Germany and Russia are vitally
interested in Poland. The Rus
sians are always vitally interest
ed in Poland because the Polish
plain is the avenue on which
have marched all the armies that
have invaded Russia. For the
Germans, the Polish plain is not
only the avenue of the Russian
advance into Europe but,v since
World War II, Poland has an
nexed German territories which
tne Uerman nation has never
renounced.
Poland's pre-eminent import
ance lends credence to the re
port last week that Marshal
Tito reached an understanding
with the Kremlin during his
visit to Yalta in which they
divided Eastern Europe into two
spheres of influence. The Poles
would be in the Russian sphere
and Hungary and possibly Ro
mania and Bulgaria would be in
Tito s sphere.
THE critical issue in Poland
is whpihpr thd now Pnlich
regime will stabilize its foreign
policy, more specifically its
policy toward Germany and the
Western world beyond Germany.
We know what Gomulka wants.
It is to renew the Soviet alli-
Matter of Fact
GARY REVISITED
Gary, Ind Last spring, in his
first attempt to feel the public
pulse, this reporter spent a day
talking to the
-Vii! voters in this
mid- western
industrial city,
arid thereafter
reported "two
strong impres
sions:" "One is
that President
Eisenhower is
W'Sk stronger wun
stewmrt Alsop the voters
at least outside the farm areas
than in 1952. Another is that
something sad and mysterious
has happened to tarnish the pub
lic image of Adlai Stevenson."
I have just made a second ex
pedition to Gary to try to find
out if there has been any marked
change in the way its voters are
thinking and talking. The answer
seems to be that there has been
a change but not a decisive
change.
QN THIS second expedition, I
" polled Gary's 13th Precinct
because its vote in 1952 closely
parelleled the three to two Dem
ocratic vote in the city as a
whole, and talked to about 5 per
ctnt of the voters. The precinct
consists of smallish, two-story,
usually two-family houses, often
rather shabby, often with pretty
fiower gardens. The day pro
vided the usual surprises.
There was a small l.not of
Serbian refugees, who were im
possible to interview they
clearly thought the strang
er was from the secret police
and would only shake their
heads and mumble. Then there
was the self-proclaimed, social
ist, who announced that he want
ed to vote for, of all people, T.
Coleman Andrews, the extreme
right winger.
But there was also a signifi
cant fact that emerged from the
interviews. Not one of the Demo
cratic voters interviewed in this
heavily Democratic precinct in
tended to vote 'or Stevenson be
cause of a personal feeling for
tpe man, or because of any of
the issues he has developed dur
ing the campaign. The Steven

sons for voting for him.

ance which guarantees turn
against Germany.
The old alliance, which goes
back to the end of World War
H, was imposed upon a Polish
puppet government by the Red
Army, and it has depended on
the infiltration of the Polish
Army by a controlling apparatus
of Soviet officers. Gomulka's up
rising has destroyed the founda
tions of the old Soviet-Polish al
liance. The question is whether
a new alliance can be formed,
based not on Soviet domination
but on the mutual interests of
Poland and the Soviet Union.
The indications are that Go
mulka wants this to happen, and
there are credible reports from
Moscow that the Kremlin, de
spite what must be deep sus
picion of Poland, wishes to ne
gotiate with Gomulka.
UNLESS the Polish crisis is
stabilized at about this point,
with Gomulka in power, with
Russian military and ideological
control dismantled, but with a
Polish-Russian alliance renewed,
then we may expect to see, I
would guess, the Polish crisis
become a far-reaching crisis of
the European continent. For it
will then spread to, and involve,
not merely the rest of Eastern
Europe and the Balkans but the
two Germanys. There is no tell
ing what would come of such a
crisis. For the essential charact
er of the crisis would be that
there was no power and author
ity be it Soviet, Western or
local to organize Central Eu
rope. In the interests of peace and
of freedom freedom both from
despotism and from anarchy
we must hope that for a time,
not forever but for a time, the
uprising in the sateUite orbit
will be stabilized at Titoism. It
is in the interests of the West
ern world that the Soviet Union
be helped to accept Titoism in
its empire, and that it should not
feel that its own security is
menaced.
FOR with Titoism in Eastern
Europe, the military threat
that the Russian Army will in
vade Western Europe is radical
ly reduced. The danger of a
World War beginning in Europe
will be even less than it has been
these last two years.
It is not in our own interest
that the movement in Eastern
Europe should go so far that no
accommodation with Russia is
possible. For that could lead to
bloody deeds in which we would
be called upon to intervene, our
honor being involved, though
we could not intervene, know
ing that the risks were in
calculable. ( Copyright 1956 New York

Stewart Alsop
memory of the great depression
"Why, many went crazy and
hundreds committed suicide
who blamed the Republicans for
it. And there were many others
who were for Stevenson because
I've always been a Democrat"
or we Democrats are tor tne nt-
tie guys." There was only one
man who was aware of the main
issues Stevenson has raised the
draft and the hydrogen bomb
tests and he said firmly that
Stevenson's stand had persuaded
him to vote for Eisenhower.
Altogether, here as elsewhere,
there is a queer blankness of
feeling about Stevenson. Com
pared with last spring, to be
sure, this is a positive advance
for Stevenson, for then this re
porter was astonished by the
curious and inexplicable hos-
t-lity to Stevenson" which was
evident in Gary. Now . the hos
tility has almost all evaporated
except, of course, among
strong Republicans and solid
Democrats accept Stevenson as
the only alternative to a Repub
lican administration. But they
accept his pallidly.
By the same token, the image
of President Eisenhower as
some-how above politics has
been considerably dimmed in re
cent months. There is no ques
tion that most people here in
Gary, as elsewhere, still "like
Ike." But many people, espec
ially the Democrats, now think
o him as a Republican, and even
a politician.
THUS you find people espec-
ially the Democrats wr.o
switched to Eisenhower in 1952
being milled both ways.
' Eisenhower is a very good
man," said a steelworker, "but
he's a Republican and the Demo
crats are more for the working
man."
Such people are the undecid
ed voters, who will determine
thp nntrnmp nf the election, and
who are still surprisingly num
erous here in Gary, for example,
almost a quarter of those inter
viewed remained undecided.
Quite a few previous Eisenhower
voters had drifted into this puu
cd-both-wavs category, and one
came awav with the impression
that the Eisenhower percentage
here would be slightly smaller
than in 1952 but only slightly
smaller.
One also came away with the
impression that the shift to

The upheaval in Eastern Eu

That could well happen.
Khrushchev took the lead in de
nouncing Josef Stalin as an evil,
maniacal oppressor.
This denunciation campaign
got out of hand.- It led to a wave
of "Titoism" revulsion against
Russian domination in the
East European satellite coun
tries. For that, Khrushchev must
take the blame.
But the revulsion against Mos
cow domination deepened into
revulsion against Communism
itself. Thus the situation has
gone beyond the mere spread of
Titoism.

Chairman Gets Call
From Adlai Stevenson
Robert Boyer, Medford,. chair
man of the state Democratic cen
tral committee, received a con
ference telephone call from
Presidential Candidate Adlai
Stevenson this morning, urging
"getting out the vote" in the
general election a week from
tomorrow.
The call, to all state chairmen
in the nation, stressed the "heavy
Democratic trends" showing up
in the last week, Boyer said, as
indicated by rallies in California
Arizona, New York and Massa
chusetts today.
James Finnegan, national cam
paign director for the Demo
cratic party, who participated in
the call, stressed in particular
the importance of the individual
committeeman and woman, and
that the outcome of the entire
election would depend on their
ability to get our "three or four
extra Democratic voters in each
precinct," Boyer said.
Medford Elks Plan

An election party will be held
at 8 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 6, for
members of the Medford Elks
lodge, it was reported today.
The party will continue until
results are conclusive on na
tional, state and local candidates
and issues. Television sets will
be placed throughout the club-
rooms and vote totals will rje
listed on blackboards as they
come in.
Food will be served and party
tables will be arranged for
groups. The event is open to
Elks, their wives and guests.
In The Day's
Here is the latest word, as this
is written, from Hungary:
The ANTI-COMMUNIST civil
war spread over much of the na
tion despite orders from the
GOVERNMENT for an all-out ef
fort to crush the REBELS. Three
Belgian diplomats who arrived
t the Austrian ooraer aiier
leaving Budapest (Hungary's cap
ital) said:
"The whole of Western Hun
gary is in the hands of the reb
els." THE GOVERNMENT radio is
pleading with the rebels to
to stop fighting. It is making all
sorts of promises amnesty a
new government, better living
conditions. But apparently it is
making little headway, for word
from Hungary tells not only of
continued fighting but of a gen
eral strike.
And
Note this:
The Tito-type communist gov
ernment IS BEING SUPPORT

THAT is to say:

On the basis of this morn

Hit Russia
fect on every Soviet Russian
leader.
The expectation has been that
if Khrushchev lost out, the Mos
cow faction which opposed his
encouragement of Titoism in
dependent Communism would
take control. That, too, could
well happen.
But it is almost inconceivable
that the situation in Eastern Eu
rope can be retrieved. Titoism
is here to stay.
It seems not beyond the realm
of probability that, in time, there
might be a cropping up of Tito
ism in Russia itself.
French Foreign Minister
Christian Pineau put that
thought into words in a speech
he made last Friday in Paris.
We have great hope that the
evolution now taking place in
several of the Communist coun
tries will sooner or later take
place in Russia, too," Pineau
said.
"The end of the Stalin god-
myth brought about the present
events in the satellite countries.
and I am sure it will bring the
same thing in Russia.
The process has been put in
motion, and it is irreversible."
Pineau spoke of evolution, not
of revolution. That evolution, if
it came about in Russia, would
mean departure from present
Russian policy. It might put into
power men who thought more
about developing their own vast
country, stretching from the
Baltic Sea to the Pacific Ocean
and less about making trouble
for other countries.
Escape Risky
Right now, regardless of any
liberalization of rule in Russia
the Russian people are inmates
of an enormous prison. Those
who escape to the West do so at
risk of their lives.
One of the most revealing de
velopments of World War II was
the effect of foreign contacts on
Russian troops. They looked

Who Asked Russia In?
Watch for the United States,
Britain and France to ask Russia
just how its troops got into the
fighting in Hungary so quickly.
There's some mystery about it.
One hour after he became pre
mier, Imre Nagy announced he
intended to ask the aid of Soviet
troops against the rebels. At that
time, it develops, the Russians
already had been in action for
five hours. Some reports say
Ernoe Geroe, later ousted as
Communist Party leader, pres
sured Nagy's predecessor, An
dras Hegedus, into making the
request. That may not be true.

Allied agents suggest: (1) It
could be intended for giant
atomic missiles which would be
launched from special under

atomic-powered airplane. By the
way, the strip runs due east and
