Paul Smiths. N'. Y.. June 5: As time goes 200 years is merely
the wink of a cosmic eye.
Yet 200 years ago an officer in the U. S. Colonial Army an
ancestor of the undersigned was offered a million acres in this
northern New York "wilderness" for S2.250. According to family
records he refused it because his home was in Pennsylvania and
he had a farm of his own to attend to. (We suspect he didn't have
tnat much money on hand, and installment payments with nothing
down so popular today were not invented then. But that of
course is entirely conjecture.)
Two hundred years as an epoch of time came to our attention
recently when we were asked to contribute to a fund for the
benefit of an Eastern college which would draw compound in
terest and not be paid over until the year 2157 the total of
S10.000 then amounting to several million.
Looks like "easy money." And as things turned out it would
have been, had Colonel Curtes that was the ancestor's name
purchased that million acres with all its lakes, timber and trout
streams, and had been able to hang on to it. As he was a "rebel"'
and not a Tory, there would have been a good chance, and had
his descendants then demonstrated the same capacity there would
now be more millionaires in the U.S.A. than there are now
and in N. Y. state particularly there are plenty.
All of which is under the heading of what might have been,
if what happened had not happened. Even more in the realm of
conjecture, what will happen to that S10.000 trust fund when its
life ends 200-years hence, and the total is paid into the treasury Of
that college? -
Will it add up to millions and if so what will a million dollars
BUY in 2157 AC? All interesting questions.
Our GUESS is a million dollars will still be a reasonable
fortune for an individual, and a welcome endowment to any edu
cational institution; and even more vital that both our form of
democracy and our capitalistic system will not be FUNDAMEN
TALLY changed. (Emphasize FUNDAMENTALLY, please.)
If that be unwarranted optimism mixed with "wishful think
ing," ok, make the most of it. For when the time comes to
prove our error, one thing for sure, it will not be embarrassing to
the undersigned! R.W.R.
Boats, Boats, Boats
The remarkable show put on by boat-owners at
Diamond lake recently, when the mountain lakes
were opened to fishing, is the most concrete local dis
play to date of a new "fact of life" America is be
coming a nation of boatmen.
There were an estimated 3,000 boats on the lake
that day, and while some first excited reports were a
trifle exaggerated, it was, indeed, quite a bunch.
""THE boats being purchased in increasing numbers
range from little rowboats with three horsepower
outboard motors up to cruisers that can venture into
the ocean, sleep a number
provide accommodations for week end recreation.
But, as with automobiles, the biggest bulk of them
are in the "middle" price range the fishing boats,
runabouts and small cruisers which can be hauled by
trailer to the nearest navigable water.
Three factors account for the rapid increase in
boating. One is the increasing amount of leisure time
available to more and more Americans as work-weeks
get shorter. Another is a generally higher standard of
living and of pay. The third is the war-bom develop
ment of sturdy, efficient, dependable outboard mo
tors, many of them with self-starters, gear shifts and
other feature that make them attractive.
DACK shortly after the tum of the century, when
automobiles first started getting to be more than
isolated curiosities, there were no particular rules of
the road. As they multiplied, however, society, for its
own safety, set up traffic regulations.
The boating fraternity is about at that point. The
old rules of navigation, particularly on inland water
ways where the amateurs are now crowding, no longer
are adequate for safety.
If the trend continues, the day may come when
floating traffic lights on lakes will be accepted as nec
essary evils as they are today on the streets. E.A.
Mail
Amid the talk of increasing postage rates, the fact
that they have often been changed, both upward and
downward, has been largely overlooked.
For instance, at one time it cost 25 cents to send a
one-page letter more than 500 miles. The rate for a
four-page letter was 1.
These were doubled in 1815, but brought back
down again the following year, to rates of 6 cents for
single pages going no more than 30 miles and 25 cents
for over 400.
A LL through the 19th century, costs of sending let
ters fluctuated, depending on distance, size
of letter, and the rates then in effect. During the 16
months the Pony Express was in operation to the west
coast, its rates started at $5 per letter, later $1.
It was in 1851 that Congress began shaping up a
policy for mail rates, which forecast the more orderly
system later to come. Single letters going up to 3,000
miles would go for 3 cents
prepaid. (It was a fairly general custom to let the re
ceiver pay the postage in the early days.)
In 1S63 a uniform letter rate, regardless of dis
tance, was established.
It was on that date, too, when free citv delivery
was started, and the carrier
when Congress authorized a letter-unit of a half
ounce, rather than charging by the sheet.
"THE charge in those days
and at a time when
what 9 cents is worth todav.
In 1885 the rate was brought down to 2 cents per
full ounce, where it remained until orld War I,
when it went up to 3 cents per ounce. It came down
again in 1919 and stayed at 2 cents until 1932, when
it went bacK to 3 cents, where it has remained.
The current proposal is to bring the letter-mail
rate up to 4 cents per ounce or fraction thereof. E.A.

A New China Policy
Although our China policy re
mains unchanged, there has
been a change of feeling about
vy.'iwMtm it. The numDer
e ;& of true believ-
r . w arc- cnVi a c TVTr
Walter Robert
son, have dwin
dled, and. they
are now able to
control the po
i c y only be
cause no one in
a re sponsible
p o s i t i on has
Walter Lipprnanii
come forward with a convincing
and satisfying alternative. That
is why there was only a perfunc-
ory reaction in Washington to
the Formosa riots and to the
British abandonment of the spe
cial trade restrictions. There is
a general feeling that even if our
China policy is still the best pos
sible policy, it has become a
poor and dismal policy neverthe
less. For all our assets are deteri
orating. Chiang is getting older
and his chance of ever restoring
his power has disappeared. His
army, though large in numbers,
is also growing older, and it can
not recruit from any large mass
cf Chinese. Red China is still be
ing denied a place in the United
Nations, but only because our
friends, though they do not
agree with us. are willing to de
fer temporarily to our plead
ings. There is almost certainly
an adequate majority to give
Peiping the China seat in the
U.N.
Within Formosa there exists.
as the Formosa riots so surely
indicated, a general sense of
frustration. The fact of the mat
ter is that while the Chinese
who have fled to Formosa are
protected on their island, they
are also contained inside their
island. This is a very unhealthy
situation, to be safe, to be sub
sidized and to have no hope
Where can it lead? Where even
tually but to the seduction of the
island Chinese by the mainland
Chinese, and to a deal after
Chiang goes which would put
Formosa back under the rule of
Peiping?
This is the prospect, and only
a counter-revolution on the
mainland, which is highly im
possible, could make the pros
pect different.
reappraisal of our China po
licy is, therefore, necessary
unless we wish to throw up our
hands, confess that we are help
less, and that we must wait with
resignation for the inevitable de
terioration, to produce a general
disaster. If the best that we can
hope to do is to hold fast and
to stand pat with Mr. Robertson,
the odds are very big that there
will be a crash and that our
whole position in the Far East
will be involved In it.
The glaring weakness of our
China policy is that we are say
ing one thing about Formosa
and we are doing something
very different. What we are do
ing is to keep Chiang securely
tied down in Formosa. We won't
help his government to recover
the territory over which it is
supposed to be the legitimate
sovereign. We won't permit it
to try to recover its territory
lest by a foolish adventure it
would involve us in a war.
Moreover, to speak plainly, we
have not objected to having the
word passed on to Chou En-lai
in Peiping that there will be no
military invasion of the main
land. Although officially we do not
recognize the government of
Mao Tse-tung, unofficially we
are compelled to recognize its
existence. For some time we
have, in fact, been conducting
diplomatic negotiations with
Red China in Geneva.
AND SO while our legal policy
is that there is one China
with Chiang the head of its legi
timate government, our real po
licv is to have two Chinas, sepa
rated by the Seventh Fleet, one
cn the mainland and one in For-

mosa. Our real policy is funda
mentally sound and right. It cor
responds to our commitments of
honor, to the political realities
in the Far East, and to our stra
tegic interests. But as things are
now, it has a fatal weakness. It
is almost certain to break down
because, since it has no legal
and political basis, the Chinese
have every incentive to break
it down,
TN my view, the object of our
China policy should now be a
political settlement with all the
Chinese, based on the principle
that Formosa is to have special
status. We should propose, it
seems to me, that under the pro
tection and guardianship of the
United Nations, Formosa be rec
ognized as autonomous, demili
tarized, and neutralized Chinese
territory with its own seat in
the General Assembly. If Red
China agreed to such settlement,
it would become the basis of a
peace treaty.
A settlement of this kind
would legalize, regularize and
consolidate the real situation
which now exists. All that
would be given up would be the
legal fictions, that Chiang's gov
ernment is the true government
of China, that Mao's govern
ment, which is undisputably the
government of the mainland, has
no legal existence. The settle
ment would confirm what - is
really important in what we ac
tually have namely a For
mosa that is an asylum for the
anti-Communist Chinese, and an
island territory that is not in
unfriendly hands.

Matter of Fact by joSePh a.soP
EVENING WITH
CHARLES MALIK
Beirut The powerful, aquil
ine face had not sagged into
characterlessness; but it was
plainly the face
of a man under
severe strain.
Although he
woe trvinff to
"have a restful,
dressing gown
and slipper eve
ning at home,
the Foreign
Minister of
Joseph aisop Lebanon be
haved more like a company offi
cer in his command post.
And no wonder! For the ac
customed peaceful bustle of this
pleasant city has now been rude
ly shattered by the oncoming
elections.
Being doomed to defeat in a
fair vote, the opposition parties
have resorted to mob violence
and to acts of individual terror
ism. They have wanted martyrs.
By almost literally pushing their
unfortunate followers upon the
guns of the security forces, they
have made martyrs in the recent
riots.
Above all, they have wished
to avoid at all costs the proof
that any Arab country could de
cisively reject in a fair vote the
peculiar brand of Arab national
ism peddled by their real leader
and director, Egypt's President
Gamal Abdel Nasser. Therefore,
with the active help of the Egyp
tian, Syrian and Communist
agents who swarm in Lebanon,
the opposition parties have
sought to make the coming vote
seem unfair, by the simple ex
pedient of staining it with blood.
THE brunt of all this has main-
-1- ly fallen upon Lebanon s
three doughty leaders. President
Carnille Chamoun, Prime Min
ister Sami el-Solh and Foreign
Minister Charles Malik. The mob
violence has been controlled.
But at mid-day a new campaign
of terrorism was stared, when a
Syrian, no doubt one of the
agents of President Nasser's ally
Col. Abdel Hamid Serraj, tossed
a primitive dynamite bomb into
one of the crowded streets in the
center of Beirut.
No wonder, then, as I have
said, .that Charles Malik ushers

Industry and Prosperity
To the Editor: Please grant
me the opportunity of publicly
thanking the writers of dozens
of warm friendly letters which
have reached me here from peo
ple within southern Oregon who
are truly interested in their
present and future. Needless to
say, I am also a target for un
ethical and underhanded tactics
to quiet my voice by the friends
cf eastern-backed so-called pri
vate power companies and the
rather pitiful protests of the less
educated peoples of Oregon who
either are unqualified to read
and KNOW the facts or are actu
ally disinterested so believe any
thing they hear on paid TV ad
vertising, or across a back fence.
Your letters those of the in
formed people who have re
searched and compared and
know the facts that I have
learned have counterbalanced
the weak protests I received.
My hope as I write this, is that
you have sent letters also to the
committees in Washington who
are now studying our situation
and in whose hands lies our
fate.
Today I received a letter from
Washington the White House
Assistant to the President, and
in it I am advised that Washing
ton is now awake to our prob
lems and is seeking remedial
measures. This indicates that
right now Washington is at
tuned to your voice keep up
the good work!
To those who write to me that
Senators Neuberger and Morse
are opposed to private and small
business let me point to the
gall and the courage shown in
their recent public protest of a
fast tax write-off which saved
large monied industry a lot of
million dollars which must be
made up from the pockets of
small businessmen! If that is not
the action of the best buddy to
small industry then none has
lived. And Senator Neuberger's
relentless, fight to save tribal
holdings from being released
until a program is worked out
whereby small business will be
allowed equal opportunity of
purchase rather than opening
these many acres suddenly so
that only monied monopolies are
prepared to take advantage of
these as uet untouched natural
resources. There are many more
examples which prove that Ore
gon, for the first time in years,
has the 'rightest, fightingest'
Senators in Congress! To you
who oppose them you don't de
serve the benefits which they
WILL bring about, but they will
bring industry, and prosperity,
and a year around payroll in
your pockets and mine
whether you like it or not!

air of preoccupation very unsuitf
ed to a slippered evening at
home. Greetings have hardly
been exchanged when there is a
screech of automobile tires some
where down the street, followed
by a. loud, dull boom. Charming
Mrs. Malik, bringing drinks,
stops short with her tray for an
instant, then says with careful
casualness:
That will be another bomb."
"Of course," replied Malik,
and launches unconcernedly into
a discussion of the recent events
in Lebanon. The telephone rings.
It is President Chamoun. There
is an exchange in Arabic. As he
hangs up again, Malik tosses an
aside to his wife "We are stand
ing firm." Then the door bursts
open to admit Jean, the cheer
fully tough-looking security offi
cer assigned to this neighbor
hood. "The fourth bomb today!" The
fact plainly elates Jean. "I saw
them, and I got the number. It
was a Syrian car just what I
expected. It's just like last Fall
when the Egyptian Military At
tache was throwing his bombs!
And I was in on that case too!"
THUS Jean. Malik makes sure
the needed steps have been
taken to catch the bomb-throwers'
cars; ascertains that no real
damage has been done; and re
turns to his conversation. "Per
haps it's only by these people
doing such things, my dear," he
says to his wife, "that we can
be able to learn the real danger
of our situation."
Then, he continues with a vig
orous and pointed analysis of
the Egyptian government's new
and more conciliatory attitude
to the United States, Great Brit
ain and one or two other Arab
countries like Jordan. Egypt and
Nasser, he remarks, very obvi
ously want a breathing spell and
very naturally want to lay hands
on the funds now frozen in New
York and London.
But the real test, he continues,
is not whether President Nasser
is temporarily polite to this gov
ernment or that. The real test
is whether Nasser continues his
venomous hostility to the West's
friends, his active support of the
West's enemies and his close co
operation with Communists and
fellow-travellers in other Arab
lands. The situation, in Lebanon
at the moment is proof - enough

Comment
HONORABLE CITIZENS
Some award for Honorable
Citizenship ought to go to the
members of budget committees
who labor long hours to whack
off estimates of need to fit the
Procrustean bed of the six-per
cent limitation. With depart
ments justifying their needs on
one hand, taxpayer frowns on
the other, and Old Man Infla
tion behind them, they have ra
ther thankless jobs. And when
they get through they aren't just
sure whether they have done
the right thing by many worthy
causes.
For American local govern
ment, the budget-making process
is comparatively recent. In for
mer years money was spent by
appropriating bodies and taxes
were levied to meet expenses
without very close' relationships.
As a consequence, overspending
resulted, unpaid warrants accu
mulated, and then voters would
be asked to authorize a bond
issue to retire the warrants.
Tight budget laws didn't be
come . common until about the
second decade of this century
They -were the product of citi
zens' taxpayer committees. The
six per cent limitation, which is
unique in Oregon, followed, rep
resenting an effort to hold down
the tax burden which was rest
ing heavily and almost exclusive
ly on property. (Other states
have their own restrictions:
Washington a 40-miIl limit. In
Washington, bonds and extra tax
es are not valid unless they are
approved in an election in which
40 per cent of the registered vo
ters turn out. Seattle school dis
trict lost an extra levy because
too few voted, though the ma
jority of those voting favored
it.)
Our budget laws work pretty
well thanks in great measure
to the conscientious folk who
make up the committees of the
several units of government.

that Nasser has not yet changed
in any basic way. "And while
he fights us, we must fight back,"
adds Malik.
But even with the dynamite
smell still drifting .down the
street outside, Malik adds that jf
Nasser is really willing to devote
himself to rebuilding Egypt, and
above all if he proves by deeds
his readin'ess to let other Arab
lands work out their own fu
tures, then (but only then) a
new look should be taken.
Malik thus gave the only sensi
ble answer to the great problem
raised by the jink in the Egyp
tian policy line described in the
last report in this space.

A sub-teen girl of our ac
quaintance, who ii going to
Girl Scout camp this summer
for the first time, the other
day was looking over one of
the questionnaires which are
to be filled out. Reading down
near the bottom, she said: "It
says 'Food dislikes.' What
should I put there? There's
only a little tiny space."
A young matron tells of pur
chasing a week's groceries it a
local food emporium. It turne4
out to be a big load, with many
heavy canned goods, and filled
two of those long, flat, fsirly
shallow cardboard boxes. The
clerk who was helping her ging
erly placed them sideways nn
top of one of the grocery carts.
As they approached the perk-:
ing lot, the awkward, unwielfly
load of groceries shifted slisbt
ly. and began to tip. The clerk
grabbed for the upper end of
the boxes, and both he and the
purchaser watched in horror
a bottle of bleach near the bot
torn of one of the) boxc o
closer to the pavement.
Slowly, like one of thov jn
exorable dreams where one calti
hardly move, the boxes tipped
and tipped and tipped. As they
tipped, they slowly pulled the
clerk over on top of them sntil
they landed gently, he sprawled
all over the groceries, boxes and
all, with everything, including 3
the bleach bottle, intact.
A friend of ours dropped in
at a wayside tavern some
miles to the north of here not
long ago. and reports that
man in a painter's white over
alls, and obviously somewhat
the worse for having been in
that environment loo long, was
going from patron to patron
asking if anyone would help
him paint a sign for the tvern."

"but I never got pasht lha

A wife in one of our neigh

prised and pleased the other
day when a telephone instal

a new telephone. She thought her
husband had ordered it installed.
Pretty soon he arrived home
and saw the telephone, and,
pleased and surprised, thanked
his wife for ordering it. She dis
claimed responsibility, so bot
were baffled as to how it came
about.
A litUe investigation reveal
ed that the telephone man had
made a small mistake in the
address. But, since both wanted
a telephone, they seized on the
opportunity and kept it.
