A Miracle is Performed
Undoubtedly domestic politics makes strange bed
fellows. But f oreign politics can make miracles.
. At least "miraculous" is the best word we can
find, to describe the complete transformation in the
world's political situation
. Who would have thought a week ago, for exam
ple, that the. Eisenhower administration would not
only, be praising the policies of the Kremlin, but join
ing with the Red" Russians
arid France in the United. Nations?
Yet that is the case, it is now "history."
MOT - only that but the leader of the Republican
party broadcasts to this country and the world,
that if the reported policy .of Soviet Russia, to with
draw its" troops from Hungary "and other satellite
(and still communist) states is carried out, it will be
the greatest step forward in improved international
relations of this generation. Strong words high
praise! .
Yet only a week or two ago President Eisenhower
and other GOP spokesmen were broadcasting to this
country and the world that the USSR could not be
trusted to keep its word regarding control of the
H-bomb or anything else, that largely because of this
distrust the arms race, atomic and otherwise would
have to go. on. Today, however, there is no such dis
trust or if there is it' is not expressed. instead Red
Russia, is highly praised, the American lamb is lying
down peacefully with the'Russian bear, and "Old Man
Debil" no- longer' resides in the Kremlin, but at 10

England, France arid Israel, particularly in view of
his campaign, promises and his' frequent pledges of
devotion to world peace and the principles of the
United Nations. .The mysterious thing is that it came
as such a "surprise," and shock not only to the Ameri

didn't the Secretary of State inform the President?
The correct answer to that would, we are sure,

Strong for Nunley
To the Editor: During the pri
mary election I was sorely
tempted to write this letter on
behalf of Walter Nunley, our
District Attorney, but did not
have the courage to do so. I
have that courage now, and am
proud to be able to do so.
' Since April, 1955, Mr. Nunley
has written numerous letters in
an effort to locate my husband in
order to get support money for
me and my children, and is now
trying to serve him with recipro
cal papers which his office has
gotten out for me. I know that
it is not Mr. Nunley's fault that
he has been unable to get the
support money for me, as his file
on my case is filled with copies
of letters which he has written
in my behalf, and he is still try
ing.
I am a poor woman so far as
"money" goes, but I am not poor
in judgment. I say this: if you
want a person of understanding.
sympathy, perseverance and
honesty, with a goal to do the
right thing for you, I say Let s
keep Mr. Nunley in office." He
sure deserves a lot of credit.

Why Medford?
To the Editor: The hearing on
the freeway destination is a
thing of the past, and the Jack
son county court, the planning
commission, irrigation districts,
fruitgrowers, orchardlsts, etc.,
all pounced on the Bear creek
route as the most feasible.
It's supposed to bring much
prosperity and extra business to
Medford.
A few intelligent people point
ed out it was a freeway designed
for a quick transportation artery,
not a dawdling, pleasure-seeking
highway. The Pacific highway
would be normally used if people
wanted to visit Medford, do busi
ness here, or stay all night at a
hotel or motel.
The one good thing the city
of Medford did for its population
was build our lovely Hawthorne
Park for recreation and rest in
the shade for older people. Now
they are evidently regretting
their good work by using a
right of way through it, which
will not only use 300 feet of it,
but use the remainder for ma
chinery and equipment in build
ing the freeway, if it is decided
to take that route.
They are also mistaken if they
think the property along Bear
creek will be acquired for a
song. Most of the land deeds
reach to the middle of the creek
Some of these people worked
for years to make their humble
homes.
Wake up, folks of Medford
There were two other routes
pointed out for the freeway loca
tion which would not hurt Med
ford and vicinity. Anyway, the
orchards have more land to' spare
than do people with perhaps only
a 50 by 100 foot lot with a little
home on it in Medford.
No other Oregon city or town
has a freeway cutting through
it. Why should Medford be spe
cially visited?

True Representation
To the Editor: It is time that
the citizens of Jackson county
have true representation in the
Oregon State House of Repre
sentatives. We need Robert A
Boyer and Robert B. Duncan in
the state legislature. They are
qualified hy training and experi
ence, as attorneys, to deal effi
ciently with the legal problems
of a representative of the people.
More important, however, are
their interests and their positions
in life, which they share with a
great percentage of our people.
They are young men with grow
ing families to support on an
average income, just like most of
us. Therefore they have a vivid
understanding of such matters
as taxation and how they effect
our families.
These young men have shown
their willingness to serve us and
to accept the sacrifice of leaving
the source of their incomes dur
ing legislative sessions. This, to
me, is eloquent evidence of their
.intense desire for the real repre
sentation of our people. It is good
to see such devotion to the com
mon good.

Against Fish Bill
To the Editor; While the .fish
ing measure.. No. 7, on the bal
lot is not a major issue this elec
tion, I feel that- more informa
tion on the subject is in order.
In the first place more fish
going up to spawn doesn't insure
a larger run of salmon in years
to come. This can be noted in
the closure of the Rogue river,
many years ago with no increase
as yet. If there is not sufficient
feed in the river, then overstock
ing can do more harm than good
just as it will with cattle on the
range or in the pasture.
Second, tt should be mention
ed that sport fishing already
takes 45 per cent of the salmon
run, commercial fishing, in ocean
and rivers combined, accounts
for 25 per cent of the run and.
30 per cent Is allowed, by closed
season method,' to return to the
spawning areas. These figures
were released by the Fish Com
mission after 10 years of tagging
on the Pacific coast.'
Third, there is the cost of
maintaining the salmon hatch
eries, which the commercial fish
ing industry carries. There is no
suggestion in this measure to re
place the loss .of revenue from
this source. While netting sal
mon is only seasonal work and
no one expects to make a living
from it, it can be the difference
in doing and doing without, just
as the fruit work makes a dif
ference to many here.
Fourth, there is the fact that
the Fish Commission has the au
thority to close these rivers
whenever it becomes necessary.
It might be wise to leave this
matter in their hands since they
are doing everything possible to
increase the salmon supply.

Waste Is Cited
To the Editor. On last July 6,
Mr. Robert Lee, superintendent
of the city water department, re
ported that the people of Med
ford used over 17 million gallons
of water in one day when the
temperature went up over 107
degrees. Of that amount less than
Vi of 1 per cent was used for
drinking and in the preparation
of food. The other 99'S per cent
was used in other Ways.
Would there be a sound econ
omy shown in spending about
$30,000 to install the equipment
to feed the sodium fluoride into
the city water system, plus an
additional sum of about $3,000
for maintenance, and have 99V4
per cent of the water go down
the drain, which would be a
wasteful and uneconomical way
of doing, especially when our
taxes are already pretty high?
And here is what Mr. Arthur
C. Ford, commissioner of water,
gas and electricity of New York
City has to say. in reply to a let
ter of mquiry from Mayor D. H.
Mackay of Calgary; Canada,
about New York City's water de
partment attitude towards fluori
dation of its water supply:
Our concern and responsi
bility is to provide the people of
New York City with a depend
able supply of the purest and
safest water possible. No one can
guarantee a safe water supply to
all the people of New York City
by using the water as a fluoride
vehicle.
"Placing of fluorides in the
communal water supply has been
under the city's water depart
ment scrutiny for more than 20
years. No satisfactory reason has
ever been advanced to show why
every one in a community must
be compelled to risk life-long ex
traordinary exposure to the toxic
action of fluorides particularly
when safer, more effective and
more economical ways .of admin
istering fluorides are available.'
The same theory advanced by
Mr. Ford is also applicable to the
city of Medford.
Louis N. Gentner,
207 South Orange St.,
Medford, Ore.
Free of Harm
To the Editor: A recent adver
tisement in the Mail Tribune,
sponsored by the Anti-Fluorida-
tioh Committee of Medford,
quotes an article on toxicity, of
fluorine compounds from the
Journal of the American Medi
cal Association.
The article referred to deals
with toxic effects of fluorine
compounds; but pertains to con
centrations of fluorine far in ex
cess of that utilized in drinking
water supplies for prevention of
dental decay:
For purposes of arousing fear
of fluoride poisoning, a descrip
tion of the bad effects of fluorine
(in toxic quantities), is of course
effective. It does not, however,
have any- bearing on the pro
posal at hand. One part per mil
lion of fluorine (about . 1 tea-
spoonful in, 1,000 gallons) has
been shown by years of observa
tion of naturally and artificially
fluoridated water supplies, to be
free of any harmful effects on
the human body."
John L. Welch, M.D.,
1032 West Main st.
Medford, Ore.
Is It' Worth It?
To the Editor: Granted that
fluoride may be helpful in re
ducing' decay in childrens' teeth
during a short period. This may
be done in several ways besides
mass medication and putting the
burden on people who have
raised their families and are
hard pressed to pay the steadily
rising taxes and other costs- of
living.
The younger parents are mak-
ing more money bow than any
ether generation. . Why should
they not lake care of their own
dentist bills as we older parents
did? I have lived in Medford a
long time and paid in taxes on
several different city water pipe
lines. Now w enjoy pure moun
tain spring water which- will
haya to bt distilled, with addi
tion of fluoride, for car batter
ies, we will have corroded
plumbing, wa will have still
higher public debt and higher
water rates. Is it really worth it?
Mrs. Esther Clark
' Bsrnett rd.,
Medford, Ore.-
Har Threa Reasons
To the Editor: I am strongly
in favor of fluoridation, after,
reading the material provided
by those for and against the
proposal.' .
While I do not have the. scien
tific background to fully under
stand the technical parts of flu
oridation, I am going io vote
yes on the proposal because 1)
my children will have a 68 per
cent, chance of having NO. cavi
ties in their baby teeth, and con
sequently a much more "per
manent" set of permanent teeth;
and 2) I have faith in the or
ganizations supporting fluorida
tion, that they do have the sci
entific knowledge to properly
assess all aspects of fluoridation
(such organizations as the Ameri
can Dental Association, the
American Medical Association,
the U.S.' Public Health Service
and the .American Association
for the Advancement of Science
and the many other outstanding
scientific organizations who are
supporting fluoridation and
which do not give their endorse
ment and sanction without. ex
tremely thorough investigations
and unless they have the most
advanced technical information
available on the subject); 3) even
to my unscientific eye the ma
terial presented by the fluori
dation group in- Medford show
ed their "facts" were supported
by scientific- study of the issue,
and not emotionalism.
I hope that in 20 years' my
children will not have to ques
tion me why their teeth were
not protected and saved by flu
oridation. Mrs. Jean Danielson,
2211 Capital ave., .
Medford, Ore.
Unfair, TJnAmarican"
To the Editor: I hive read
many communications in your
paper regarding fluoridation or
Medford's water supply and I
don't believe any have stressed
the most important thing about
developing and keeping a sourtd
healthy set of teeth. If many of
the children of today used their
hands as little as they use their
teeth.no doubt their hands would
be as defective and useless as
their teeth.-
I believe babies cutting teeth
should have a bone or piece of
hard wood or other object fully
as hard to bite on instead of a
soft rubber toy as is generally
used.
They should be taught to chew
their food hard and vigorous
even though it be soft food.
I believe whole raw hard
wheat is one of the best tooth
-developers' there is. I. ate a lot
of it as far back as I -can re
member. Raw .vegetables are
also good. I ate a lot of them too,
including raw potatoes in winter
when we. had no other raw fresh
vegetables.
I had my first decayed tqoth
at 59, a wisdom tooth it was,
and another one at 66, this time
a good molar. I had gotten into
a habit of lazy jaws so I went
back to my old habit of hard
chewing. I am now within four
days of 77 and -I have had no'
more tooth trouble.
I have cracked many, nuts of
many kinds with my teeth and
the only kind small enough to
go between my jaw teeth that I
couldn't crack with my teeth was
a black walnut. I have often cut
a willow fish pole with my teeth
when I didn't have a knifejn my
boyhood days. . .
I repeat, toe secret of a gooa
sound set of teeth is to use them
hard and vigorous from the cra
dle to the grave as nature' in
tended them to be used.
This I-firmly believe I have
learned by experience and ob
servation.
So I. want to belatedly con
gratulate . the Eood citizens' of
Ashland for having voted down
fluoridation of their cjty water
supply. Now they can fluoridate
themselves or their children as
they see fit or as fheir doctor or
dentist prescribes without -forc
ing it on the very large majority
who either don't need it or don't
want It. '
Also there is the many outside
of Medford who will have no
chance to vote on the fluorida
tion joker. And that is very un
fair. In fact the whole thing is
unfair and -un-American.
- Vote no on fluoridation of
Medford's pure and wonderful
water. . .'

For Future Citizens' .
To the Editor: It is a fact that
Medford's water supply, is lack
ing in -elements vital to the
formation of good teeth. Many
far-sighted cities with' the same
problem are providing a means'
to better health for their citi
zens by'fluoridating public water
supplies. .

Tha British and tha French,
going it alone, are SHOOTING
in the Suez. Bombs are drop
ping on Egyptian targets. Ds
nPHEY gave the Israelis and the
Egyptians the old-fashioned
12-hour ultimatum. There was a
time in the world when all that
was necessary when s6mebody
got out of line, was to SEND
THE BRITISH FLEET, and hat
was that. .
The extreme right wing of the
British' Conservative party1,
which, has long been humiliated
by the distintegration of the Brit
ish empire, has decided to go
back to those days, .Hence the
ultimatum. Israel accepted it on
the condition that Egypt accept
it also.. Egypt refused.
So the shooting started. e
WHY was this chosen st the
time? . o
Let's quote an-, bid' proverb:
"When the cat's away the mice
will play." Russia is in t mess
at the moment. So Israel moved
into Egypt, shooting as it went.1
Britain and France then moyed
into the Suez. "
