MAIL TRIBUNE
A "Bad Neighbor"?
On this page last week a letter appeared which'
asked the city council to change the city's policy of
not providing city services to areas outside the city
limits.
The letter was from a resident of the Berrydale
area, a man who led the fight against annexation
when it was up for a vote there at the November
election.
"Why not be a good neighbor?" his letter asks
Medford residents. "Contact your city councilman
and tell him to do the decent thing and allow an out
side area that is in dire need of sanitation to hook up
to the city sewer line that runs close by."
"THE policy in question was adopted by the city
some years ago, after many unhappy experiences
proved it to be necessary. It may, on the face of it,
appear to be a bit cold blooded, but city after city
has been forced into it, and the rule is almost uni
versal by now.
It is necessary, in the first place, to protect resi
dents of the community, who paid for installation of
the improvements with their tax dollars, and whose
property values furnish the guarantee for their main
tenance and operation.
Sewers, water mains, paved streets, curbs and
gutters, street lights all these cost money, lots of it.
If they were to be provided to areas outside the city
limits, the city has no guarantee they can or will be
paid for.
IT IS, of course, true that the city limits are merely
lines on a map, and that we really are all members
of the larger community. But in a very real sense, the
city limits are valid lines of demarcation between
those who have city improvements and pay for them,
and those who do not have them, but want them
often without the added responsibility and tax costs
that go with living inside the city.
If a city administration is to be effective it MUST,
first and foremost, fulfill its obligation to its own res
idents. That is its sole reason for existence.
We share the concern of the residents of the
Berrydale area with their sanitation problem, be
cause, for reasons of health, it is everyone's problem.
But we cannot agree that, after the problem has
grown to staggering proportions, the city should
come rushing to the rescue, lending its credit, its ser
vices and its facilities without the assurance of the
solid foundation that only property values provide.
""THE letter quoted above
of being a bad neighbor.
But is it?
Think about the contrast between the two annex
ation proposals at the November election. Berrydale
voted against annexation. In effect,, it rejected the
city's invitation to join. Grandview-Kenwood ap
proved it. The city accepted the verdict of the voters
in each case. '
As a result, Berrydale's problem is worse than
ever. But Grandview-Kenwood early next month will
become part of the city, and orderly development
will follow its natural course. And, mind you, this is
costing Medford and its residents money. But it was
felt that the overall good of the community was best
served in this way.
This is not the action of a "bad neighbor." And
the invitation is still good. It was the voters in Berry
dale that closed the door. It's up to them to knock
again, if that's what they want E.A.
Visitor from Space
If a recent dispatch from London is correct, it
will be possible to see a genuine comet this spring
the second one visible to the naked eye since the last
visit of Halley's comet in 1910.
It should be quite a show. The story says it will
be the brightest object in the sky save only the sun
and moon, and that it should be visible in daylight,
unless it changes its apparent course. At present it
can only be seen with a strong telescope, but as it ap
proaches the earth it will get bigger and brighter.
AT ITS closest approach, it is estimated it will be
some 30 million miles from the earth, or only
about one-third of the distance from here to the sun.
This is expected to be by the end of April.
Comets are not particularly rare, and astronom
ers see up to a dozen or so a year through their in
struments. But one visible to the naked eye is a rar
ity. Up until a few hundred years ago, they were the
subjects of both awe and superstition. In 1456, a
large comet scared the daylights out of the residents
of Europe, and a prayer to be saved from "the Devil,
the Turk and the comet" was added to many church
services.
The distinguishing mark of a comet is its tail,
which may be up to 100 million miles in length, but
is so nebulous that it could be compressed into a very
small space. The tails do not extend backward in
the comet's path, but away from the sun, even when
the comet is going away from the sun, apparently
"pushed" that way by the energy of sunlight.
VW"E HOPE this comet (named Arend Roland for
the Belgian astronomers who found it) follows
its present course and pays us a visit. If it doesn't,
we might have to wait for the next visit of Halley's
comet, scheduled for 1985.
But there's always the chance that one will show
up without advance warning. They are the farthest
traveling members of the solar family, swinging bil
lions of miles into space in the journey around the
sun. E.A.

THE INTENSIFIED COLD WAR
The President was asked at
his press conference by Mr. Rob
ert J. Donovan, of the New York
Herald Trib
une, whether,
as compared
with the Ge
neva confer
ence in 1955,
there is a
"marked hard
ening of rela
tions between
the United
States and the
Soviet Union, an intensification
of the cold war." The President,
quite evidently for diplomatic
reasons, replied that he really
could not say.
There is, however, no doubt
at all that relations with the So
viet Union have taken a sharp
turn for the worse. The turn has
come since the autumn, and is
directly traceable to the two
crises which occurred almost
simultaneously in October the
one in Eastern Europe and the
other in the Middle East.
The spirit of Geneva rested
at the bottom on a mutual under
standing not to alter the status
quo by force. Each of the two
crises of the autumn was an up
heaval of the status quo. The
one upheaval touched the vital
interests of the Soviet -Union,
the other the vital interests of
Western Europe and the west
ern world.
rpHE East European upheaval,
which reached a climax in
the Hungarian- rebellion, threat
ened the whole position of the
Soviet Union in Europe. Seen
from Moscow, it threatened to
create, as the saying goes, a
vacuum of power which would
probably be filled by anti-Russian
governments. In the face of
this very real threat, the Soviet
government, with its military
chieftans setting the pace, re
versed the liberating policy of
anti-Stalinism. It crushed the
Hungarian rebellion, and assert-
In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
After eleven days of balloting,
in which the lines on both sides
held firm, the deadlock in the
Oregon state senate has been
broken by the election '(which
was unanimous jn the final vote)
of Democratic . Senator Boyd
Overhulse of Madras as senate
president.
The net result is to give the
Democrats (who control the
house decisively) control of the
senate's important committees.
It puts them in a strong position
to carry out Governor, Holmes'
program IF his program is such
as to ap'-eal to enougn Republi
cans to sain a majority vole ir.
the senate whose membership
is divided evenly, 15 Republi
cans and 15 Democrats.
If the senate's 15 Republicans
should stand flat and firm
against the governor's program
of legislation which they are
unlikely to do unless it should
take a shape that violated all
their fundamental convictions
they could block it by failure to
pass it in the senate. To become
law, any bill must nave me ap
proval of both houses.
A N INTERESTING question:
Has the long deadlock over
the election of a senate presi
dent done the state of Oregon
harm.
Personally, I doubt it. It has
of course, consumed eleven days
of the senate's time. But, mean
while, the house has been going
ahead with its business. The
most important business of the
1957 Oregon legislature is to en
act a tax program that in the
fairest manner possible will pro
vide the money to meet the ap
propriations that the legislature
makes to carry on the states
business and to pay for the serv-
icies that the legislature decides
should be provided by the state
Al) tax bills must originate in
the house. So, it seems probable:
the essential business of the
house has- been going ahead
without much interruption.
" At least that is the way that it
should have been.
4 NOTHER interesting q u e s-
" tion:
WHY long deadlock?
I don't know. But I suspect
the fact that the president of the
senate is next in line of succes
sion in the event that tr.e office
of governor in Oregon becomes
vacant for any reason had some
thing ;o do with it.-
Sonator Pearson, against
whose choice as president of the
senate the 15 Republicans stood
so stubbornly firm, leans strong
ly toward New Deal Democratic
philosophies. If he had been
elected president of the senate,
he would have become governor
if a vacancy in the governorship
had occurred.
That could account for the op
position to him hy the 15 Repub
lican members of the 30-member
Oregon senate. Senator Over
hulse, although relatively little
known outside his own district,
has a reputation as a clear, able
thinker with more or less mid
dle of-the road views, 'so far as
his political views have been
I disclosed.

ed its overriding authority in the
wnole area. A measure of its
success is the Polish election last
week where the defense of Po
land against the Hungarian treat
ment was believed to depend
upon proving to the Russians
that Poland is both Communist
and loyal to the Soviet Union.
In this East European crisis
there was submerged. Derhans
for some time to come, the hope
oi an accommodation between
the Soviet Union and the West.
For that hope rested on the pos
sibility that Russia would accept
generally all over Eastern Eu
rope some variant of the neutral
ism which pervails in Austria,
Finland and Yugoslavia. The
Hungarian crisis seems to have
convinced the Kremlin that if
Eastern Europe they relax
their domination, they may lose
all their influence.
We may say that, as a result.
the Soviet Union has filled the
vacuum by reasserting its own
domination. As this means that
an East-West accommodation has
become much more difficult, the
cold war is intensified. But the
Soviet Union has re-established
its authority inside its orbit.
T OOKED at broadly, the" Mid--
die Eastern upheaval has
meant the collapse of the Brit
ish power, and this carries with
it the threat that almost the
whole region might turn against
the West. The Eisenhower Doc
trine is an effort to reassert, not
western authority which is gone,
but a modicum of Western influ
ence. Though Britain and
France made a clumsy try, the
West has not done in the Middle
East what the Russians have
done in Eastern Europe. The
West has not reasserted its au
thority by force. The Eisenhower
doctrine is jnendy an assertion
of the American presence in the
Middle East, and an attempt to
do something with the Arab
states by a mixture of prestige,
persuasion and inducements.
During the autumn crisis the
Soviet Union was able to isolate
and insulate Eastern Europe
against any form of outside in
tervention. The U.N. has been
impotent, and its impotence has
been advertised to the world by
the noise of its many resound
ing resolutions. The Middle East,
on the contrary, has not been iso
lated and insulated. The great
fact about the Middle East is
that Russia, with strong support
in the United Nations, is able
to move actively to counteract
the efforts which the President
means to make to maintain
Western influence in the area.
rpHERE is no use under-esti-mating
the diplomatic force
of the warning against allowing
bases for nuclear weapons,
which was issued in Moscow this
week. This warning is addressed
to the key countries in the great
semi-circle which extends from
Japan and Okinawa through
Iran and Turkey to Western
Europe. The warning consists of
a reminder to these exposed
countries that in case of war,
unless they are military neutrals,
they will be defenseless targets
for Soviet missiles. This is a
powerful argument for neutral
ism, and it is not easy to see how
the Administration proposes to
deal with that argument.
Yet it is no exaggeration to
say that the issue of neutralism
is the paramount issue in the
whole world that lies close to the
Soviet Union.

Stewart Alsop
85th Congress will do and will
not do in the coming session.
The "Eisenhower Doctrine"
will pass more or less intact. A
great many legislators on both
sides of the aisle thoroughly dis
like the whole business, especial
ly the open-ended $200 million
Middle Eastern aid fund.
A vote for foreign aid in any
form is increasingly politically
risky these days, and the kind of
blank check the President has
asked for is especially risky. Yet
the risks involved in not giving
the President what he wants are
even greater. The President will
therefore get what he wants,
perhaps with a few strings at
tached, and after the Democrats
have given Secretary Dulles a
painful going-over.
There will be the annual row
about the defense program, and
Secretary of Defense Charles
Wilson will also experience a
painful going-over. The Air
Force budget may again get a
token increase. Yet partly be
cause there is no political mile
age in bucking Gen. Eisenhower
on the defense issue, and partly
because Congress is simply not
equipped to make defense policy,
the Administration program will
go through without real change.
'
THE big row of the session will
be, of course, about civil
rights. Both Democrats and Re
publicans have read the election
returns from the areas with
heavy Negro voting, populations,
the former with dismay, the lat
ter with delight. There is thus

Demo Leaders Expect
Doctrine Approval
Washington (U.R) Demo
cratic leaders expect President
Eisenhower's controversial Mid
dle East doctrine to be approved
by Congress without substantial
change sometime in February, it
was learned Saturday.
But Democratic disenchant
ment with Secretary of State
John Foster Dulles' conduct of
foreign policy seems certain to
touch off a fullscale examina
tion policies not only in the
Mideast but in other world
trouble spots.
The House Foreign Affairs
committee, in a formal report
Saturday on the Eisenhower
Mideast resolution, urged the
House to approve it as a blunt
warning to Russia that the Unit
ed States will use force if neces
sary to halt any Soviet attempt
to subjugate the Middle East.
About 24 per cent of all retail
sales in the U.S. today are automotive.
Undergoing Changes
This policy is to reduce ex
penditure on armaments drastic
ally and to base British defense
on guided missiles and nuclear
weapons.
The appointment of West Ger
man Lt. Gen. Hans Speidel to
command what is called the Cen
tral European area of the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization
means that increasing emphasis
is going to be put on West Ger
many's role in the defense of
Western Europe.
Drastic Reductions Planned
Both the United States and
Britain plan drastic reductions
of their forces in Germany,
which would be the first line
of defense in event of a war
with Soviet Russia in that part
of the world. Most of France's
NATO troops already have been
sent to Algeria.
West Germany is just really
getting started on its rearma
ment program.

But it is also generally predict
ed that the program, especially
the Federal guarantee of the
right to vote (which is what
scares the Southerners most) will
be watered down almost to the
point cf meaninglessness.
If a civil rights program
passes first, there is a good
chance that a school construc
tion bill on about the lines pro
posed by the President will pass.
Otherwise, the likelihood is that
some sort of civil rights amend
ment will be tacked on the bill,
as last year, and that, it will thus
again be killed.
THE prospects for a bill free
ing natural gas from Federal
control, which the President
vetoed last year and has now
included in his legislative pro
gram, are less good than is gen
erally supposed. The reason is
simple. Senate Majority Leader
Lyndon Johnson and House
Speaker Sam Rayburn were
infuriated by the President's
veto. They are therefore in no
mood to fight, bleed, and die
for a gas bill, as they did last
year.
Johnson will not lift a finger
to push a gas bill in the Senate,
unless it first passes the House.
Last j'ear it barely passed the
House, only as a result of a per
sonal plea bv Rayburn. It is
most unlikely that Rayburn will
make such a plea again. More
over, the recent oil price rise,
which a number of committees
are eager to investigate, has cre
ated the worst possible climate
for the passage of the gas bill.
If the President is willing really
to put on the heat, he will get
his bill. Otherwise, the chances
are dim.
There will be no reatly im
portant new farm legislation
the Democrats, having tried last
year to pass high rigid parity
and failed, do not intend to try
again. There will probably be
new legislation governing the
industrial use of atomic energy.
Because the issue is of basic im
portance, and because Atomic
Energy Commission Chairman
Lewis Strauss is determined to
turn over industrial atomic en
ergy to private capital, this may
turn into one of the most heated
issues of the session.
THERE will be new immigra
tion legislation, but a stop
gap bill favoring the Hungarian
refugees is more probable than
a real rewriting of the McCar
ran Act. There will be some
legislation dealing with the
drought crisis in the Southwest,
but again stopgap action is more
probable than an attempt to deal
with the basic problem which
is turning vast areas in the
United States into desert. Final
ly, despite Treasury Secretary
George Humphrey's cry from
the heart, there will be no im
portant reduction in the budget.
All in all, the outlook is for

is now forming. It is planned to

in 1959.
It is now quite clear that in
the Middle East the United
States, under the Eisenhower
doctrine, would replace Britain
and France as the chief Western
barrier against Communist pene
tration. Secretary of State John Foster
Dulles told a congressional com
mittee last Friday that British
and French troops would be a
handicap to the United States in
the Middle East. He explained
that the Arab countries were
hostile to-Britain and France be
cause of their recent invasion
of the Suez Canal Zone, among
other things.
Turkish Help Essential
But it seems increasingly like
ly that Turkey, Iraq, Iran and
Pakistan may play an important
part in the new defense line-up.
These countries are the Mos
lem members of the Baghdad
alliance against Red aggression.
Britain is the fifth member.
The United States, which spon
sored the Baghdad alliance, co
operates with its members. It
has refused to join the pact out
right. Now, it seems increasing
ly possible that if the United
States does not join the alliance,
it will seek the cooperation of
the four Moslem countries in
making the Eisenhower doctrine
effective.
Turkey's cooperation, especial-.
ly, seems essential. Turkey,
which like Iran has a long front
ier opposite the Soviet Union,
also has the biggest and best
army in the whole Middle East.
Its influence is great throughout
the Moslem world and it is a
staunch friend of the United
States.
