(Landis-Shangle photo) Ships Being Sent To Evacuate Americans From Middle East USE OUR LAYAWAY PLAN So. Oregon's Complete Toy Store To i ft SHOP I I IAIIY J Open Tonight The TOY HOUSE 317 EAST MAIN ' USE TRIBUNE WANT ADS Washington (U.R) Amer ican merchant ships in the Med iterranean are being sent to ports where they can pick up U.S. citizens row being evacuated from the ..liddle East. The State Department said Tuesday about 806 Americans already have been moved out or are about to leave Israel and three of its Arab neighbors, Jor dan. Egypt and Syria. Another 5,255 or so Americans still are in the four countries. 'Every Possible Effort' The department said "every possible effort" is being made to evacuate persons not vitally needed in the area, particular ly dependents, "as rapidly as transportation facilities will per mit." Department Spokesman Lin coln White said several U. S. merchant ships are now in Med iterranean waters and "efforts are being made to divert them to ports" where they can pick up departing Americans. White said the evacuation program is proceeding accord ing to plan, with the U. S. Em bassy in Rome coordinating the process. He gave the following breakdown of the evacuation thus far: Of - an estimated 320 Ameri cans in Jordan, about 250 have been sent overland to Beirut, Lebanon. About 280 were in Sy ria. Of these 96 have been evac uated to Beirut, leaving about 184. Americans Leave Egypt In Egypt, more than 400 Am ericans boarded the American Export Lines ship Exochorda slated to leave Alexandria Tues day. That left about 1,600 Am ericans still in Egypt. "Of some 4.000 Americans in Israel, only about 60 have been moved out thus far. These were sent by air to Athens before the Israeli airfield at Tel Aviv was closed. Evacuees from Jordan and Sy ria will be temporarily quarter ed in Beirut, White said. Those from Israel, he said, will be quar tered temporarily in Athens and those from Egypt in Italy, as far as possible. THE LIMPING MAN Southbridge, Mass. tU.R) Historians say the Marquis de Lafayette walked with a limp as result of a leg wound suffered in the Revolutionary War. When insurance man Armand J. San soucy played the role of Lafay ette in a play, he put a pebble in one of his shoes to help him simulate the limp. T. D. Our 15-year-old has gone rock 'n' roll crazy. Mrs. T. D. Teenagers need understanding. T. D Our 15-vear-old daueh- ter has become a prize nuisance in the home. She's gone rock 'n' roll crazy and she and her friends fill the house with their horrible sounds every evening. Besides this, she's become a ty rant. She keeps bossing her kid sisters around .so much, the poor kids are going crazy. They used to fight a little, like any normal kids, but now the youngsters have become regular little de mons, too, in order to spite Do lores. I've never Interfered with the way my wife handled the chil dren, but I think this is going too far. She won't say a word to Dolores no matter what she does. I was brought up on good, old fashioned discipline and it never hurt me. Mrs. T. D. My husband doesn't seem to understand any thing about the times we're liv ing in. There is so much juvenile delinquency around, I want Dol ores and her friends to be in the house. I'd much rather put up with the noise than have them roaming the streets. Today's teen-agers have a lot of pressure on them and I think Dolores is taking out her nerves on her sisters. It's not a good situation, but it's a passing phase and it's important to be very understanding of Dolores at this time of her life. I think that if my husband were to show a little more kindly interest in Dolores, she might be easier to handle. But he contents himself with pressuring me to discipline her and merely glow ering at her. The Council: Mrs. T. D. is right when she feels it is import ant to be "understanding" of teen-agers, but she is wrong when she thinks that understand ing means indulgence. She shows very little understanding of Dolores when she permits her to "take out her nerves" on her kid sisters and to make the home a bedlam for adults. Us Mail Tribune Want Adl For Quick Cash ELECT a District Attorney Who Will solve the mystery of the Cating Report On Juns 12, 1953, the incumbent District Attorney asked the County Court for funds for investigation of alleged "dope" in Jackson County. The County Court granted the request. According to his own Primary Campaign statements, Nunley hired one Walter Jeffries as . special investigator. He states that Jeffries assumed the name "J. P. Cating" for the inves tigation. The records of the County Clerk show the issuance of county warrants to "J. P. Cating" for $700.00 during June, July and August, 1953; two warrants for $350 each during Septem ber, 1953, a total of $2,800. According to Nunley, "Walter Jeffries" orally explained his "report" to a small group of private citizens. Nunley claims the "report" is in his private files. A local newspaper has charged that the alleged investigation was of the incumbent. Sheriff's office. Nunley has neither admitted nor denied this charge. We Ask Nunley in the Public Interest to Answer These Questions 1. Why did he use funds reportedly voted for a narcotics investigation, for some other purpose not authorized? 2. Were the funds used to investigate the Sheriff's office or were they not? 3. If so, who authorized their use for that purpose? 4. Why was it necessary to employ an outside investigator at an extra expense of $2,800 to the taxpayers instead of using the services of the Medford City Police, the Sheriff's office or the State Police? ' 5. Why was not this report made public to those who paid for it the taxpayers; or, if confidential, why not submitted to the County Grand Jury? 6. Since it was paid for by the public, why do you keep it in your private files? 7. Why have you not had "J. P. Cating" or "Walter Jeffries" ccme forward to verify what you claim for them and explain why the report cannot be made public? VOTE X THOMAS J. REEDER DEMOCRAT, DISTRICT ATTORNEY As Distriei Attorney Reeder Will Unveil the Secrecy Behind the Cating Curtain Pd. Adv. Democratic Party of Jackson County. Larry Sheehan. Chairman. When Dolores bosses her kid sisters, she may be trying to show her parents what she needs and wants of them a little au thority, a sense of limitations. The feelings that there is no required standard of behavior is at least as upsetting to the teen ager as the feeiing that the par ents do not "understand" or will not permit enough freedom. Teenagers depend on their parents to hold the reins. Letting go robs them of all sense of se curity. They want to fight for their freedom and should be ex pected to prove their maturity and respect for the rights of others with each new inch of maturity and respect for the rights of others with each new inch of freedom they are grant ed. Mr. T. D. has been awakened to his own responsibilities rath er late. A father's concern about his children's behavior is not "in terference." He has turned the responsibility entirely over to his wife and becomes concern ed only because his peace of mind is being disturbed. He ought to b e more concerned about his children's welfare. Do lores is more of a victim of his wife's mistaken notions than he is. These parents need to get together in establishing order in this home. (Copyright 19S6, General Features Corp.) Use Tribune Want Ad QUICK and EASY! East Germany Puis Anti-Reds in Jail To Prevent Revolt Berlin (U.R) East Germany announced today the arrests of 73 anti-Communists in an appar ent effort to prevent any Hungarian-type revolt from explod ing against the Soviet dominated Red German regime. The Communists said the ar rested Germans were "Western spies," the usual Red terminol ogy for anti-Communists. Round-Up of Leaders The arrests were believed de signed to round up the potential leaders of a resistance move ment and thus nip in the bud any plans for a revolt. A West Berlin newspaper said the German Communists are purging the ranks of their Secret Police as a precautionary meas ure. Der Abend said a "wave of arrests" had been made and that "several leading officials" were among those seized. The simmering unrest among East German students was point ed up today with disclosure of demands for an end to the com pulsory study of Marxism in uni versities and attacks on Com munism. The disclosure was made in a letter to the official Communist party newspaper Neues Deutschland complaining against "forces influenced by events in Hungary and Poland." Attempts To Be Crushed East Berlin Communist leader Alfred Neumann warned Tues day that Communist troops and police will crush any attempt by East Germans t6 emulate the rebels in Hungary.' Soviet tanks have ringed Ber lin to back up the threat, the West Berlin newspaper Tages spiegel reported. It quoted Ger man travelers as its source.
