A map of more than routine interest has reached
u a proof fiom a forthcoming "Pioneer Atlas of the
American West," published recently by mapmakers
Rand McXally & Company.
It is a map of Oregon which first appeared in the
same firm's Business Atlas of 1876.
Medford, which was little more than the site of
a ford across Bear creek (labeled Stuart creek on the
map, is not shown at all. But Jacksonville, the county
seat and largest city, is shown, as are Ashland, Phoe
nix, Central Point and Ft.Lane, near Rock Point.
ACCORDING to the map, which was not entirely
dependable, we suspect, the two principal roads
to the east were through Ashland and then on to
Lower Klamath Lake in California, by-passing "Link
ville," the county seat of Klamath county; and the
freight road through Eagle Point, Brownsborough
and Wesgates, which crossed Big Butte creek near
its headwaters and wound north and east to Ft.
Klamath.
Crater lake is not shown on the map at all, al
though it had been known for more than 20 years.
The main route to the north appears to cut
through the hills to the northeast of Grants Pass,
which is shown only as a tiny community at the
northern terminus of the road from Crescent City
.through Kerby, then the largest community in Jose
phine county.
"rIAMOXD lake" is the name listed for what is
now know as Crescent lake, and the present
Diamond lake is not shown at all, nor is Lake of the
Woods. Fish lake and Fourmile lake, both man-made,
had not yet been thought of.
Elsewhere in the state appear names which have
vanished (like Linkville, now Klamath Falls; Cas
cade, Ellensberg, at the mouth of the Rogue River;
Empire City,- now Empire, which dominated the
Marshfield-North Bend area; Eugene City, now Eu
gene; Ft. Yam Hill, BakertOWn) as Well as Others
which have changed m spelling.
Many blank spots on the old map are the sites of
cities today among them Bend, Burns, Medford,
and a number of them along the coast.
Great areas of land in the eastern part of the
state are labeled "Sage Desert," or "Gold, and Silver
Mines."
A WASHINGTON map, also dated 1876, is inter
" esting, too, although it does not have the im
mediacy of the more familiar state. Accompanying
it is a facsimile of a Northern Pacific railroad adver
tisement of that date, which said in part:
"This is also the Short Line to Portland, Whence
Passengers go via the elegant Passenger Steamships
of the Oregon Kaihvay and Navigation Company
and the Pacific Coast Steamship Company to San
Francisco . . . Pullman Sleepers and Elegant Dining
Cars Between St. Paul and Portland. Time, 4 days!"
That the map was new only 80 years ago is a
measure cf the vast changes which have come about
during the lifetime of men now living, and much of
it in the past three decades. E.A.
New Weather Theory
Significant, though not fully understood, progress
in small-scale control of the weather has been made
during the past decade or so.
If conditions are "just right," rain can be made
to fall. Within certain limits, and under certain cir
cumstances, wintertime snowfall can be increased.
And there is evidence to show that fog can be dis
persed to a limited degree under some conditions.
Up to this point, however, that's about the size
of it. And one of the nation's authorities on the
weather contends that really- big-scale control of the
weather would be virtually impossible.
CUCH an effort, he points out, would require "noth-
ing less than altering the Equator-Pole heat dif
ferential, or the rate of the planet's rotation."
Writing in the Scientific American, Victor P.
Starr, professor of meteorology at Massachusetts In
stitute of Technology, describes the new theories of
weather which have been developed largely since
the war. They have been based on a big increase in
ihe number of reporting stations, careful tabulation
of the results, and conclusions derived from them.
As a result, the "classic" theoiy of how the atmos
phere circulates has been found to be inaccurate. It
held that air in the tropics rose, circulated north and
south across the hemispheres, cooling as it went, then
descended at the poles to circulate back again.
""THE newer theory of atmospheric circulation is
based on the great rotating air masses known as
cyclones and anticyclones. Dr. Starr says of them:
"These are the familiar systems that appear on our
weather maps as high-pressure and low-pressure areas. A
high is most frequently a mass of cold air broken off the
polar air belt: as it moves southward, the earth's rotation
sets it spinning in the clockwise direction. A detached warm
mass moving northward is similarly set spinning in the
opposite direction and accounts for the lows. Liquid models
of the atmosphere . . . tend to verify the new conception of
the atmosphere as an air ocean set in motion by the sun's
heat and broken up by the earth's rotation into big whirls
fed by little whirls."
He foresees that, with additional observation,
aided by mechanical aids such as calculators, the art
of long-range forecasting will be considerably im
proved. But control of the weather and climate, he
adds, now appear to be even more difficult than
believed.
He says "A complex of random, unmanageable
processes seems to govern our weather patterns"
which comes as no surprise to the observant layman
who has had to live with the results. E.A.

Russia, Hungary, Sue
In Top Good, Bad News of Weekjln War on Cancer,
By CHARLES M. McCANN
United Press Correspondent
The week's good and bad
news on ihe international bal
ance sheet:
Soviet Russia announced a big
shake-up in its economic plan
ning administration after a five
day meeting of the central com
mittee of the Communist Party
of the Soviet Union.
Hungary, in the wake of its
anti-Communist revolt, faced an
economic crisis which dispatches
said threatened to become a na
tional disaster.
After long wrangling, the
Egyptian government agreed to
let salvage vessels under United
Nations supervision start clear
ing the Suez Canal of ships
which it scuttled to block traf
fic in retaliation for the British
French invasion.
In what amounted to a "Yan
kee, go home" vote, the Japanese
natives of Okinawa, America's
greatest Far Eastern military
base, elected an anti-American
pro-Communist as mayor of the
island's capital city.
Official statements issued in
Moscow after the meeting of the
Communist Party Central com
mittee were interesting chiefly
because of what they failed to
say.
The shake-up in the economic
planning set-up was important.
Maxim C. Saburov was replaced
as chief economic planner by
Mikhail G. Pervukhin. Six high
ranking experts in various fields
were named to aid Pervukhin in
tightening efficiency in industry.
But no mention at all was
made of problems that must have
been discussed by the committee.
These include Poland, Hungary
and the admittedly growing un
rest among Russian university
students and workers.
It is pretty certain that the
committee must have heard re-
ports from Party First Secretary
Nikita S. Khrushchev and others
on relations with the "Titoist"
government of Polish Commu
nist Leader Wladyslaw Gomulka,
on the critical situation facing
the Hungarian puppet govern
ment of Janos Kadar and means
to get the students and workers
back into line.
NiQttQT Of FGCf
NOT FORWARD
BUT BACKWARD
Washington The projected
increase in the defense budget
of S3.000.000. 000 or so will no
doubt be hailed as a daring re
sponse to the changed interna-
Etewart Alsop Joeub Alsuo
tional situation. It is, in fact,
nothing cf the sort. It is a back
ward, not a forward step. It rep
resents a decision, not to in
crease, but actually to decrease
in relative terms the previously
planned level of American arm
ed power, especially in the air.
Last July, Gen. Nathan Twin
ing, Air Force chief of staff, laid
the facts on the line in testimony
before the Symington Air Power
Subcommittee. The relative tes
timony is too long to quote here.
But it can be found in the record
of the hearings, under the titles,
"Cannot Maintain 137 Wings on
Present Budget Policy," and
"Will Request Six Billion More
for Fiscal Year 1958 Than Re
ceived for Fiscal Year 1957."
In effect, Twining testified
that the Air Force would need
six billion more, not to increase
over-all air power, but to main
tain the current level of air pow
er relative to the Soviets. He and
other authorities had previously
testified that Soviet air power
was surpassing American air
power in four of the five main
categories.
'T'HERE are three reasons why
the Air Force needed S6.000,
000.000 more, which, in fact,
Twining had good reason to be
lieve he had been promised. In
the first place, the whole De
fense Department has been liv
ing on fat in the last four years
Defense economies have been
made by spending billions of for
ward appropriations voted in
previous years by Congress. But
now the fat has just about run
out, and the pinch has come
Second, the Air Force has now
reached a stage of "buying hard
ware." when new plane designs
like the 100-series fighters, and
the B-52 bombers are rolling off
the production lines and must be
paid for. But there is a third
reason as well.
As previously explained in
this space, as the Soviet air de
fense improves, our existing
means of delivering nuclear
weapons to Soviet targets, prin
cipally the B-47 and the B-52
bombers, will inevitably become
obsolete, just as the B-36 has
become obsolete. The Air Force
is working on no less than seven

Okinawa
Kamejiro Senaga, leader of
the strong anti-American ele
ment on Okinawa, was elected
mayor of Naha on a platform
which calls for the immediate
r,eturn of Okinawan political
control to Japan. His election
registered the resentment of
Okinawans to American occu
pation and to American policies,
principally the requisitioning of
iand.
He's Still Hopeful
To the Editor: It all depends
what one is used to. Like the
recently arrived Hungarian
radar engineer who said in ef
fect, "No, this dollar given my
small family and me is not going
to be spent for anything. It's
going to be kept as a symbol of
freedom here in America, where
we can go where we want to go,
say what we want to si'y, do
what we want to do and hear
laughter and see the happy faces
that have become strange to us
Hungarians under Communist
rule, not mentioning the won
derful food provided us that
woud have been wondei ful if
only bread and potatoes in gen
erous amount."
This appears to be dependable
evidence of life under Red rule.
But it is completely futile to
offer it as any kind of proof to
the pinkos, the fellow - travelers
and defenders of the Soviet way.
When pinned down, for lack of
ny adequate answer, their last
resort is. "Capitalistic propa
ganda, the lying press!"
It is to ponder why this should
be. Why otherwise good people,
born and raised here in freedom,
prospering to the extent of ex
tensive land holdings, having
mortgages on the homes of
others, enjoying the best of
everything our way of life af
fords, proving as it does the old
saying; convince a people against
their will, they'll be of the same
opinion still.
Perhaps it's a natural law that
keeps us up on our toes, to com
pel us to realize that the price
of freedom is everlasting vigi-
ance. Anyway, it is good to know
that as the old year ends and a
new one is in the offing, that
goodness of heart reigns in the
majority of mankind, the major
ity mind you, who in united
thought and effort is bound to
make this a better world for all

Average U.S. Farm
Now About 250 Acres
Minneapolis, Minn. (U.R)
The average U.S. farm has ex
panded from 215 acres in 1950
to a present size of about 25,0
acres, the Northwestern Na
tional Life Insurance Company
said today.
The family economics bureau
of Northwestern said a statisti
cal study revealed that the
average sales value of farmland,
including the buildings, has
risen from S67 per acre in 1950
to about S90 an acre for 1956.
The increase in size and sales
value has resulted, the study
showed, in the average U.S.
farm unit today being worth
about S22.000, compared with
514,500 in 1950.
The upward trend was at
tributed to a continuing absorp
tion of small farms into larger
units. This was seen with a drop
in the total number of farms in
the country from 5.400,000 in
1950 to under 4.7000,000 in
1956. the bureau said.

1957 Year of Hope
Society Head Says
BY DAVID A. WOOD
President, American Cancel
Society
Written for United Press
Among its more fervent pray
ers for 1957, the world will in
clude one for "the cancer cure."
In modern countries like the
United States, cancer comes to
two of every three families and
kills one in six of us.
Happily, it can be reported
that "the cancer cure" is now
here for many who will have
the disease this year.
One in three cancer patients
now are being saved they ejre
saved by surgery or radiation or
both. Only a few years ago, the
figure was one in four.
Steady Progress
One can predict with certainty
that further advances toward
cancer control will be made dur
ing the coming year. At long
last, research is mobilized, fin
anced more generously than ever
before, and all along the massive
front, from studies of cell chem
istry to the treatment of patients,
progress is being made.
Few if any responsible scient
ists expegt that 1957 or any
other year will produce a single
drug which will cure all cancers.
There is a growing' likelihood,
however, that eventually and
no one can say when a variety
of drugs will be developed which
may cure many of the cancers
that now resist radiation or are
too far advanced for surgery.
New Drugs Coming
Science in recent years has
developed about a half-dozen,
drugs which will cure certain ex
perimental cancers in laboratory
animals. One big hope is that
some drugs scores of them are
now coming off molecule as
sembly lines in chemists' labora
tories will begin to cure human
cancers. So far drugs have given
substantial help to patients; but
none has permanently cured hu
man cancers.
Beyond the field of drug treat
ment or chemotherapy lie
several other avenues of lively
research promise;
And among many other types
of study, improvements in surg
ery and radiation will mean im
mediate saving of human lives.
The year of Our Lord, 1957, is
one of continued hope and of in
creasing promise.
IFA Records Busiest -Tree
Farm Year in '55
Portland The Industrial
Forestry association certified
one new tree farm in western
Oregon and Washington every
four days throughout 1956, ac
cording to Nils B. Hult, 'presi
dent. "It was the association's
busiest tree farm year since it
founded the now nation-wide
tree farm program in 1941,"
Hult said. "A record of 100 pri
vate forests were certified by the
association as west coast tree
farms during the year."
The tree farms certified this
year include more than 200,000
acres and pushed the total for
the region to 4,831,677 acres at
the year's end.
Private forest owners of west
ern Oregon and Washington may
investigate tree farm opportuni
ties through the association's
foresters at Eugene, Portland,
