En route to San Francisco from Denver via the California "Zephyr," July 17 This is another nice train air-cooled, com fortable and excellent service. President Russell of the SP some years ago predicted the doom of passenger travel by rail, particularly the Pullman type. We wonder if the head of the SP isn't the victim of "wishful thinking." His only serious interest being profits, no doubt he would like to see the least profitable part of the railroad business eliminated. After a Pullman round trip of over 6,000 miles Hear ing completion, we doubt if his golden dream will be realized in the foreseeable future at least. There are just too many Americans who not only like to travel but like to see the country en route not only see a steer ing wheel or the tops of trees! There are 20 passenger cars on this "streamliner," all but four Pullmans and of the most modern type. They are filled, as are the four "astra domes,"' and cameras are almost as thick as the short sleeved sports shirts and slacks. In short the summer tourist season has started and it is hard for your correspondent to see the time when this "see the country" urge is going to be satisfied by all night coach travel, freight. trains or supersonic super rocket planes. We chatted with one of the passengers, a doctor from Chicago, who is also a movie camera fan. He was shooting from the astra- dome and in the Feather River canyon "shot" a deer. He shared our view of the President of the "Friendly SP" and hoped his defeatist railroad policy would not prevail. He said he had taken many plane trips, a number necessitated by the emergency nature of his profession, but that when he took a vacation at home or abroad, he wanted to see the people where they lived and what they were doing, and not only the most comfortable but the best way to do so was by train. As for for eign countries, he added, the chief joy to him was the relaxing, leisurely boat trip getting there. a In the realm of prediction the undersigned has no crystal ball. We willingly concede that President Russell is far better qualified to predict the future of the railroad business in the country than he. But one thing for sure, if a vote were taken on this train the Chicago doctor's verdict would not only be supported, but with three cheers and a "tiger." Judging by this swing-around-the-circle, now nearly com pleted, here is a tip for Bill Barker, to-wit: West of Chicago men's styles are changing. The one and onlv dictate is COMFORT. If you feel more comfortable to take your shoe laces out of your shoes and use them as a necktie ok, do so. If you prefer a sleeveless "T" shirt and shorts, don't hesitate to throw your coat and pants into the ash can. If you don't like socks don't forget the popularity once enjoyed by Hon. "Sock less" Simpson. If you don't like to shave pay no attention to the Gillette "Calvacade of Sports" and grow whiskers. Also if you have been wearing a hat and (except in hot weather) a vest, shame on you throw both of them away, for in this prevailing "comfort first" campaign, such horse-and-buggy appendages are just NOT done. Finally if you haven't a sports shirt preferably depicting in vivid colors a bull fight or Elvis Presley in a toreador costume ge busy and buy a dozen. In short, William, from a car window and aisle at least, this year the prevailing style for men will be no style at all. Be comfortable, is the watchword, even if it makes the observers uncomfortable, and you have to go barefoot to do it. San Francisco, July 18 At last after 10 weeks search for a cool spot we have found it. Instead of the Golden Gate following the rest of the country and putting on "unusual weather," here climatically it is normal for July and delightful. For the first time since May Day' a sweater and a top coat would be comfortable instead absurd and out of place. Grandpappy can even wear a. vest without being conspicuous. "California here we are" and San Francisco is proving once more that as a summer resort it has the world beat. R.W.R. Inflation Controls Economists in general agree that the hottest prob lem of the day may be inflation, but they disagree widely on what kind of inflation we have and what to do about it. The indications point to no great change in the government's policy of "monetary re straint" tight money to most of us as the main an swer in time of peace. President Eisenhower on June 26, on the eve of wage and price increases in steel, urged labor ana management to follow "statesmanlike price and wage " A' fortnie-ht earlier. William McC. Martin Jr., chairman of the Federal Reserve board, told a Joint Congressional Economic subcommittee tnat tne only way we have of meeting this inflationary situa tion, whatever it is, is to restrain demand by monetary and fiscal means" tight money. Secretary of the Treasury George M. Humphrey on July 12, winding up four weeks of testimony before the Senate Finance committee, said that he felt "inflationary pressures already may be abating." MARTIN'S statement indicated no immediate change from a message transmitted by the Fed eral Reserve Board of Governors on May 24 to the chief Congressional groups studying economic policy. After a year-long study -of. consumer installment credit now at an all-time record of $32 billion the board concluded that under peacetime conditions "a special peacetime authority to regulate consumer in stallment credit is not now advisable." The Eisenhower administration has so far fol Imvprl a nolicv of avoiding- even stand-bv direct eco- . . nomic controls since the Defense Production act ex pired on April 30, 1953. In his first State of the Union message, President Eisenhower summed up the famil- e J 1 i .mi 1 .. . . 1 1 1 lar case against controls : l ney nave proved largely unsatisfactory or unworkable. They have not prevent ed inflation; they have not kept down the cost of living." pONGRESS at this session is hardly likely to furnish the President stand-by controls on its own initia tive, as the 81st Congress did President Truman in 1950. Even after the outbreak of Korean hostilities, Truman had asked no wage and price controls. But Congress was deeply impressed by Bernard Baruth, who warned on July 26, 1950, that need for all-out mobilization was "sufficiently grave to warrant an overall ceiling across the entire economy." Congress had been less generous to Truman in the "special sessions" of 1947 and 1948. Only a few the least important of the recommendations in his 10 point anti-inflation program were accepted in 1947. When an angry Congress was called back to Wash ington after the nominating conventions in 1948, the only legislation in this field was .restoration of the wartime Regulation W authority. E.R.R. Sunday. July 21. 1957 I KNOvV ON THING SHE CAN'T BLAM5 ON ME ' THAT lOJSYCAKBf Matter of Fact THE END IS NOT YET London Now that more is known about the circumstances of Nikita S. Khrushchev's tri umph in the Kremlin at least one fair ly firm and highly i m por- tant conclu s i o n can drawn from The collapse be it. of the f a m o u system of "col jHMih , TontiirA ruin" ii almost certainly a mere interme diate convulsion in the strange, convulsive process of Soviet evo- lution. The reasons fnr this rnnr-ln sion have little to do with npr sonaiuies. n may well De true that Premier Bulganin will later be replaced; it may also be true that Marshal Zhukov will he the - - cnosen replacement. But such chances of Dersonal ities, if they occur will still be less significant than the changes of a quite different sort that - m""c have already been revealed by tne recent events in Moscow. the recent events in Moscow, These are broad and basic changes in the inner relation shiDs of Soviet society. One of these great cnanges may be inferred from facts al rparlv rnthpr wirielv discussed In brief, it now seems clear that Molotov, Malenkov and their al lies originally commanded an arrnal maioritv. and Derhaps a very heavy majority including Bulganin himself, in the crucial vote asainst Khrushchev in the Soviet Presidium. WITH a majority against him, Khrushchev had only one U)9v in annpal from the hostile Presidium to the friendly Cen tral committee. Marshal Zhu kov. sDeakine for the armed forces, had to insist upon "So viet lpffalitv." There are credi ble reports from Moscow that the call to the Central commit tee was indeed issued in this manner, under threat of force. These reports are in turn con firmed by other evidence. For example, the call to the commit tee must have been both hurried and imperative, since the, Soviet ambassador to France, Vinogra dov, actually left Paris towards midnight and drove hell for leather all the way to Berlin, in order to catch a plane that would take him to the commit tee's opening meeting. Because Marshal Zhukov al most certainly intervened to help Khrushchev, many people now predict that Zhukov will succeed Bulganin as Premier. If it occurs, this promotion to the Premiership of the one Soviet leader who is a true popular hero, with hands unquestionably clean of the blood of the Stalin years, will be an event of vast meaning. But it will still be less mean ingful than the simple fact of Marshal Zhukov's intervention. Here was the first display of po litical power by the Soviet mili tary class. As wise a judge as former Ambassador to Moscow Charles Bohlen used to maintain that "the political influence of the Red Army in the Soviet Union was about equal to the political influence of the Salva tion Army in the United States." And that used to be the case. BUT that is no longer the case, as Bohlen himself was the first to recognize. Furthermore, the officer corps of the Soviet armed services is nor. oniy a u- iai ornun with considerable in ner coherence. It is also being transformed into an hereditary caste by the device of the special schools for officers' cmiaren, which strongly resemble the spe cial cadet schools that trained the officer caste in Hohenzollern Germany. In sum, this officer caste now in formation in the Soviet Union has fnr the first 'time staked a claim in politics. Thus the ques Claim 111 (JU11L11. 1IIUS uo- tion of the political role of the .nvipt armpH sprvicpR has been decisively posed. And this is the kind of question that, once posed remorselessly demands an even tual answer. One such vast question touch- By Joe and Stewart Alsop ing the whole future would be enough for most societies. But still another question about the Soviet future equally huge in scope and import, was also posed Dy tne great events in Moscow TN BRIEF, there is very little doubt any longer that the h i a Vi nffinials nrlminictratnrs and technicians in the great So viet industrial ministries com posed the rank and file of the defeated army of Molotov and Malenkov.

And who were these men? They were in fact the leaders of the nuge ana criu- caU jmportant new soviet class of higher industrial managers and technicians. Furthermore, what is to re place the dissolved industrial ministries. The ministries are to be replaced by "territorial economic councils." And these territorial economic councils Khrushchev has his way, will not be dominated by members of the industrial managerial class.

Communications Letter to the Editor must bear the name and addresa ot the writer although under certain circum stances the use ot a pen name or initial for publication is permis sible The Mail Tribune reserves the right to edit all letters with an eye to clarification and conden sation Letters submitted for pub lication must not exceed 400 words Bar Businessmen? To the Editor: Could it be a good policy in the future to pre vent local businessmen from be coming councilmen? Ours have clearly demon strated on several occasions their reluctance to permit new business to enter our city. It's very apparent their interest is a selfish one, in which they won't permit upsetting their apple cart. The growth of any commu nity is dependent upon invested capital,' capital which in turn will employ and attract others to that community. How else are we to grow if the need is not first sown? Competition should not really frighten our local businessman unless he is like the small child that is fearful of what he doesn't understand nor want. . Surely this country has demonstrated the results of competition. It has enabled everyone of us to enjoy a -finer way of life as well as a more profitable one. Out of competition our country has grown, and likewise our commu nity will follow the same path, if allowed to. As an answer to one of the reasons given for not approving Sears new store, "they" tell us of plans to expand our City Park in the future. Would it not be just as well to consider a West Side location for another City Park? It is needed. Aside from that, I agree we will need a larger park, particularly so, con sidering the policy of our coun cil. We'll need more park b e n c n e s for the increasing amount of unemployed in our City. James A. Lowman, P.O. Box 924 Medford, Ore. Pat on Back To the Editor: I am one to condemn and criticize, but at the same time I believe I am one co commend, pat on the back and say "well done," de pending upon actualities. In a previous letter I dealt sort of rough with our city councilmen when I felt they were being led by the nose by "King Pins" etc., as to their handling of the $50,000 item on the budget for "off street parking." I still feel that way. However, I must "back-water a little because of the manner in which they acted and the interest they showed on subject matters presented at the last hearing Thursday night. All city residents should show their appreciation of council action on "the zoning of Phipps property to allow Sears store to come to Medford. Why not be as anxious to give a slap on the back for a job well done as we are to criticize? I feel the council members will appreciate it lay O. DeMarrs, 08 West Second st., Medford, Ore. More Fish Discussion To the Editor: Since M. H. Williams of Shady Cove saw fit to publicly take me to task over remarks reportedly made by me, I would like to publicly give a rebuttal. Mr. Williams, what you read was not a verbatim account of what was said. Before attempt ing the easy exercise of jumping to conclusions, you might have called or written me and found out my exact remarks. My remarks pertaining to sal mon referred to where and how they are caught. When I spoke of fishing for larger fish I was speaking of trout and I made the plea because of the tremen dous pressure the young down stream migrating salmon and steelhead are now subjected to every spring. I feel that since trout over a foot long are canni bals the larger trout should be our game. They are naturally more wary and can easily with stand the fishing pressure. Those fine catches of seven and eight inch fish which are caught out of the Rogue every spring are the fish that should be un molested. Your wish to leave the large salmon alone because of their quality during June and' July and because they are the source of future generations has some merit. Despite this they provide excellent sport and certainly are a resource we can use sparingly. Perhaps a shorter season or a one fish a day limit might be in order, anyway until their num bers show some increase. The group I represent is not a sportsmans group; it is an or ganization of conservationists who may also be sportsmen, but they are conservationists first. Hank De Voss Talent, Ore. TV Complaint To the Editor: I am a constant viewer of TV over KBES-TV station and we have enjoyed many of their programs, but just recently most of the pro grams have been repeats. We don't mind some, but what en joyment is there in a picture you have already seen before? It's beginning to be a habit down at the station when a good program comes on, there is always trouble and they do POTLUCK (By M-T Staff- and Contribution) WELCOME BACK ll8l'a Our favorite society editor got back to the daily grind last week after a hectic journey which took her to Washington, Philadelphia, ' New York, and way points, and provided some fascinating reading for h"r "Pot pourri" column. She is shown above as she appeared, tired but game, a few minutes after re turning to her desk. The "welcome home" signs are the creation of artist-photographer-reporter Bob Vroman who also couldn't resist snap ping a picture of the .returned "foreign correspondent." We were rather shocked when Potpourri returned lo find that she must have pick- not even let you know what it is. When they do, it seems it happens to be in the network, but never at the station. It's a good thing they have something to blame it on to. Like today when "Truth or Consequences" came on, it went completely off and no explanation whatsoever as to what the trouble was. Why not bring some of these programs back on . TV, Badge 714, Championship Bowling, I Led Three Lives, China .Smith, Gun Smoke and there are others too numerous to mention. These are good programs and are en joyed by all. I heard that they had plenty of sponsors, so why not get them to put these pro grams on TV? We also would like some western shows. They expect us to buy their products, then why not give us something we like and enjoy? We enjoy TV very much and it is our only recreation, so if possible, PLEASE do something about it. So here s hoping. W. J. Moore Gold HiU, Ore. Fall Out ' To the Editor: I am writing you this letter to see if you can do something about this Fall Out. It just seems to hit every body in the stomach. Everybody round the Valley seems to be complaining. Now you take the day I have, to spray the Aphis, I always seem to pick a day they explode one of those bombs down in Nevada because the Fall Out .seems to hit my stom ach, well maybe not right then but a little later on but its eith er spray the Aphis or no roses. Well, then you take Monday, right on the days everybody has to wash, seems funny how they pick wash day for another ex plosion and more Fall Out, but I try to hurry and get thru be fore the Fall Out comes along, so Iget the tub ready, dump in the detergent, that Oh No, that de tergent don't hurt no body, its highly advertised but as I start ed to say, I dump in the deter gent and believe it or not, Mon day Fall Out again and I got a sick stomach before I can fin ish my washing. So Mr. Editor won t you please write down there and see if you can't do something about this Fall Out over our Valley. Name on file Medford, Ore. CITY PARKING We mentioned recently that Milwaukee, Wis., was enlarging its municipal off-street parking facilities and that two-thirds of the cities over 10,000 population own and operate one or more municipal lots. Here are some more figures on the subject from the Public Administration Bulletin. Of the 1,130 cities of 10,000 or over re porting to the clearing house, 746 have municipal off-street parking and they own 2,872 lots, an average of four lots per city. During 1956. 66 of them estab lished municipal off-street park ing lots for the first time and 303 added facilities to those al ready in operation. Several larger cities also start ed in the municipal parking business during 1956. Among them were Baltimore, Md.; Chi cago, Jersey City, N. J.; Eliza beth, N. J.; Jacksonville, Fla.; Phoenix, Ariz.; Pro vidence,' R. I.: Reading, Pa., and Utica, N. Y. It would appear that Eugene, if it should go into municipal off- street parking, would not be a pioneer in this field. In fact, we would be joining a large major- ty of cities which have realized that in the auto age, parking fa cilities are just as important as streets and highways. Eugene Register-Guard MCOME HOME ed up some bad habits in the, east. For instance, she's smok ing several times as heavily now as she used lo. Before it was on cigarette par year) now it's two or three. Our proofreader has bobbed up with another bit of esoteric information. Last Monday, it seems, was St. Swithin's day, and if the old tradition comes true, we should be in for 40 days of sunshine. The legend is that if it rains on St. Swithin's day, there will be 40 days of rain, and vice versa. Last Mon day was fair and warm. A member of the auxiliary to Rogue Valley Memorial hospital reports it (the hos pital) has already processed its first maternity case. A mother robin built her nest under the roof of the main entrance this spring, laid her eggs, and hatched out her ' fledglings all quit success fully. One of our operatives tells us that a couple of youngsters last week were using an elec tric device in the Library park to force worms out into the open where they could be pick ed up for fishing purposes. This poses a nice moral question who has custodial rights to city owned worms? . , e An unnamed county official, we ar told, on a trip to th east coast before th advant of television in our fair val ley, got to discussing th fights on TV. "Heck." h told his shocked eastern acquaint ances, "we don't need TV to see a good fight. W just step out the door and go to it." People with similar or identi cal names can cause confusion. Harold White, superintendent of the experiment station here, doesn't know of any other Har old Whites in this county and for this he is glad, for in his college days there were four of them. This caused complications, not all of them bad, as occasion ally he'd receive a box of cookies intended for another Harold White. He also tells about writing to the girl who later became his wife, and how another girl in the same city had the same name, and sometimes received letters not intended for her to read. It can also be reported that there are two Eric Aliens in Medford at the present, which is too bad for those people who believed that one was too many. The young man who now prepares "Flight O' Tim" for this newspaper says he hopes TV movies continus to com from th industry's ancient archives. He finds th old ad vertisements fascinating, and reports that something called "On Z Boulevard" was play ing at th Craterlan in 1927. A Boy Scout of our acquaint ance attended a period at Camp McLoughlin this summer and, with his buddies prepared for a climb up Mt. McLoughlin. To make things go faster and easier early in the morning, the pre vious evening they mixed up all their hotcake batter so it would be ready to cook when they arose. It was placed in a frying pan with a cover on it. . In the cold light of dawn they climbed out of their sleeping bags only to find the fryingpan licked clean, and a number of deer racks around it. They breakfasted lightly on hot chocolate. . i This same scout has had second class rank for soma months, and th only thing that barred him from first class was difficulty in passing the Mors cod test. At camp h lost his second class pin. and was informed he'd hava- ' to buy another on. This smart lad. however, knew a better solution. He worked like beaver, passed his Mors test, obtained first class rank and was GIVEN th. first class pin h had earned. ' The IQ quiz printed recently in the Mail Tribune asked for the plural of "you." Two answers have been nro- vided us by one of our fune-. tionaries: xiSiajj!k-.-.J. .'.a 1. Down south it's you-alL 2. In Montana, it's sheep.
