No Crumb's of Comfort Dye From Reran1
Disarmament Conference, Truman Says
Monday, September 30, 1957
MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THREE
(Continued from Page 1)
For this, Soviet Russia will
have to make full accounting
before history.
The recent disarmament talks
in London were a complete fail
ure, and it is no use trying to
derive any crumbs of comfort
from them. I have learned from
titter experience thai the Com
munist leaders in the Kremlin
have no honor in their code and
they will not keep agreements.
The only thing they understand
and respect is superior strength.
This is not our standard, but it
is the standard by which the
Soviets conduct themselves in
international and in their home
affairs.
But this is no reason for de
spair. On the contrary, their be
havior points the way for us to
conduct ourselves in the light of
similar situations in history.
What we need to do is to com
bine resoluteness with patience.
Maintain Military Strength
We must maintain our strength
and bide our time. Let us not
give the impression of hesita
tion to act if provoked, and let
us avoid the dangerous busi
ness of weakening our military
strength, lest we encourage the
Kremlin to bolder adventures.
I have had many opportunities
to size up the methods of the
Kremlin leaders, not only face
to face, but also in the light of
historic perspective. It seems to
me that there is a close parallel
between Stalin and his succes
sors and Genghis Khan and his
scourging adventures across Asia
and Europe in the 12th and 13th
centuries. At the height of his
conquests Genghis Khan would
Thinkers Thinking About Female Answer
To Manpower Bothers the Office Grouch
By DOC QUIGG
United Press Correspondent
New York OP Wilbur, our
office grouch, had his head bur
ied in a newspaper when sudden
ly, from the papery depths, he
began yelping in anguish.
"Why don't they leave us
alone?" he screamed "Why don't
they get out of our lives?"
Whatever is bothering you
now. Wilbur?
"Womanpower," said Wilbur.
"The thinkers in Washington are
thinking - about womanpower.
The secretary of labor says, and
here I quote, he says, 'The future
of our economy depends upon
womenpower to a greater degree
than ever before,' and her I un
quote." Womanpower? What docs that
mean?
"He is talking," said Wilbur,
"about working gals the female
answer to manpower. He says
ten million more persons will
enter the U?. working force by
1965 and that more than half of
them will be women.
"And get this. The president of
the U.S. Chamber of Commerce
says the 'manpower pinch'
whatever that means probably
will bring women's wages up
even with men's. He says long
standing taboos against female
executives will be wiped out.
He says maybe dames won't be
climbing telephone poles or run
ning bulldozers but that tradi
tions will topple and they'll in
vade fields that men now largely
occupy."
Poor Aim
Wilbur wadded up the paper
and hurled it across the room,
narrowly missing a female exec
utive and her female secretary
having a coffee break together.
Bulldozers . . . telephone poles
. . . what next?" he muttered.
''Women mailmen, maybe? Oh,
no. they couldn't do that. They'd
open all the letters and read
'em in the swift completion of
their appointed rounds. Train
engineers, maybe! Whoo-Whoo!
Mrs. Casey Jones . . . Come all
ye children if you want to hear
a story of a brave broad engineer
. . . " he crooned.
Then be began puffing like a
locomative. The female excutive
and the secretary watched him
nervously.
"Women Santa Clauses! Ho,
ho. ho! Merry Christcas!" roared
Wilbur, his eyes strangely alight.
"They'll never get that job
they couldn't stand to give all
those things away."
Some Naturals
A crafty look came on his face.
"I know," he said. "I know just
the thing. They can take over
steering the rear end of the sec
ond section of hook-and-ladder
fire trucks. They are natural
backseat drivers. Ah, ha-ha-ha-ha!
But they'd probably want to
change the style of those fire
department hats, wouldn't you,
dearie?"
He addressed the question to
the two women. They just stared.
"Maybe eventually they'll give
female excutives men stenogra
phers to sit in their laps," Wil
bur continued.
"And how about their invad
ing the field of dentistry? That's
ideal. They could fill the pa
tient's mouth with instruments
so he couldn't talk back and then
blab away at him to their heart s
content."
He paused, frowned, and then
snapped his fingers.
I've got it! The perfect job.
Women bums. It's a field they
haven't yet invaded. The general
job of hobo. Dou you agree?"
The two working ladies could
not answer. They had fled.

Ground Broken for
St. Luke's Church '
Ground was broken yesterday
for the new St. Luke's Methodist
church in ceremonies at the
corner of Sisikyou st. and South
Modoc ave. Construction on the
first unit of the edifice is to
start soon.
Regular church services were
held at the site with the Rev.
Melvin. Dixon presiding. The
Rev. Meredith Groves, former
Medford pastor and now super
intendent of the Eugene district
of the church, compared the con
gregation's efforts to construct
a church to other similar pro
jects in the district.
Mayor John Snider offered
whatever assistance which he
and the city council could render
and praised the members for
their planned addition to the
city of Medford.
James Whipple, Drain, district
secretary of church extension
and one of Oregon's main Metho
dist lay leaders, also spoke.
Taking part in the actual
ground breaking were Rev.
Groves. Snider, Rev. Dixon,
Whipple. William Wilson, local
lay leader; Clifford Platz, chair
man of the board of trustees of
St. Luke's, and Miss Gladys
Bond, representing Dr. I. D.
Phipps. who donated the prop
erty to the church.
Myra S. I'm tired of being
a career woman.
Fred S. Her quitting would
mean a comedown in our liv
ing standard.
Myra S. I have been a car
eer woman and a mother for
the past eight years and I'm
getting a little sick of it. I
would like to quit working, but
my husband is against that.
I made a very good salary
when we were married ten
years ago and I wanted to con
tinue working right up to the
birth of our first baby. My boss
never got a good replacement
for me, so I came back to work
a month after the baby was
born. Then there were so many
things we needed that I con
tinued working.
Now we have three children
and I am still working. I have
a good housekeeper, but the
children even ask me why I
don't stay home like other moth
ers. I can't give them much time
evenings and week ends be
cause I am too tired and must
take care of all kinds of per
sonal things. Mostly, though, I
just like fussing around my
home like other women.
Fred S. Myra gives the im
pression that I'm some sort of
slave driver, but that isn't so
I'm trying to think in terms of
what's best for all of us.
Myra has never been much of
a housekeeper. The work would
bore her after a few weeks. The
kids are getting along beautiful
ly with the woman who has
been . with us all these years.
They are as healthy and alert
as anv kids whose mother is

President Is Right,
Dean Acheson Says
Washington IIP) Former
Secretary of State Dean Ache-
son said Saturday that Presi
dent Eisenhower was "altogeth
er right" in using troops to
maintain order in Little Rock.
He told a news conference
that when the Governor of a
State calls out the military force
of the state to interfere with.
orders of a court "you have
something . . . nearly approach
ing insurrection." He said such
a situation leaves the president
no alternative but to suppress
it.
"It seems to me he was alto
gether right to do so," Acheson
added.
As for the Littel Rock inte
gration trouble in general, he
said "it is a blow to American
prestige and .leadership in the
world."
COMMUNISTS RESIGN
Messina, Italy (IP) Eighteen
local Communist leaders in a
half-dozen Sicilian communities
resigned from the party en
masse Sunday, charging that the
party fails to "understand the
needs of the workers." The chief
of Communist organizing in
Italy, Giorgio Amendole, admit
ted last week that the party has
lost 200.000 members since the
Soviet denunciation of Stalin
last February.

around all day.
Myra has chosen just the
wrong time to decide to quit
work. We just bought a new
home and we are barely keep
ing up with expenses. Her quit
ting would mean a comedown
in our standard of living. She
wouldn't like that either. Our
youngest child is just about to
enter kindergarten so the worst
is really over as far as manag
ing them is concerned.
Myra has a guilt complex
about leaving the kids and they
know how to play on it.
The Council It is very un
fortunate that Myra has never
had the experience of being able
o stay at home and '"fuss"
around her home as well as
being able to enjoy her children
when she is not tired and dis
tracted by other things. The chil
dren may be getting along nice
ly with the housekeeper, but
Myra is being robbed.
Fred evidently doesn't realize
that most women are tempera
mentally different from men and
find a steady job routine a bit
hard to take. If a woman has a
home and children, yet is forc
ed to give up her rightful close
contact with both to some other
woman, she is likely to develop
some hidden resentment. Her
job becomes more irksome and
the whole thing takes its toll in
'emotional terms.
A comedown in living stan
dards would not be a great sac
rifice to make for Myra's emo
tional happiness, yet that come
down is probably not as great
as Fred predicts. Aside from
the housekeeper's salary, other
savings could be made by more
careful management on Myra's
part: She may find that she likes
to sew and this alone would
make a big difference in the
budget.
Myra will undoubtedly have
her days of boredom in the
home, but it is quite likely that
she has known such days on
the job too without getting
any of the richer experiences
she could have enjoyed with her
children.

negotiate with no one except on
his terms. His sway seemed lim
itless until he reached Europe
where he was stopped. All con
uerors overextend themselves;
his empire began to crumble
with his descendants. His grand
son, Kublai Khan, realized that
he had to negotiate and make
treaties and keep them.
Since that time we have wit
nessed a number of conquerors
attempt again and again to in
vade and dominate many areas
of the world, only to end up in
failure, always leaving their sur
vivors the task of negotiating
for peace. Human beings, what
ever their race or origin, value
freedom above all else, and no
conqueror or dictator can ever
hold them down for long.
Significant Change Expected
I think that in our lifetime
we may hope to see a significant
change take place in Russia. But
we must act with wisdom and
strength in the light of history.
We may even hasten that day
if the Russian people can be giv
en to understand that their
leaders will not be allowed to
go any further. Together with
our friends and Allies in the
Free World we can prevent a
tragedy of an overexpanded Rus
sia. The real danger confront
ing free men today stems not
alone from Communist imperial
istic militarism but from its in
sidious preversion of men's
minds.
I wonder if Egypt and Syria,
whom I would like to see as
parts of a happy and prosperous
Middle East at peace with their
neighbors, realize what would
be in store for them, as Mos
lems, under the domination of
the Kremlin. Before they com
mit themselves irrevocably. 1
would suggest they look at Hun
gary and Poland and other Sov
iet satellites where deeply re
liqious people have been sub
jugated and outraged. The
Arabs, with their eyes on Mecca,
would have no better fate than
any other religious people on
the European or Asian conti
nent. Can't Attract Masses
Soviet Russia cannot attract
the masses of people anywhere
to her way of life where the in
dividual is not subordinate to
the state. In four decades since
the Communists took over Rus
sia, not a single nation has vol
untarily adopted Communism in
a free election.
Russia will be stopped, and
must be stopped, in her evil de
sign to force slavery upon free
peoples in the guise of libera
tion. This can be done not by
soft words and smiling counten
ances, and, least of all, not by
panicky reaction to Russia's pro
paganda moves. We must also
understand that some of our
Allies are undergoing serious
strain under the burden of arm
aments. Therefore, we must not
at any time falter in maintain
ing our strong position, since
we are the principal deterrent
and discouraging force to Com
munist imperialism.
Ike's Vacation Ends;
To Meet Governors
Newport, R.I. (IP) Presi
dent Eisenhower's vacation ap
peared Saturday to be coming
to an end. J
The President will return to

Although Presidential Press
Secretary James C. Hagerty said
he did " not know whether the i
Tuesday date in Washington j
would mean the end of the Pres- j
