MAIL TRIBUNE Editorial Correspondence By ERIC ALLEN. Managing Editor Buena Park, Calif. The two-year-old residential development where we are staying seems to be on the direct air line between Los Angeles International airport and Disneyland, that Never Never land which gives evidence of netting its creator a million or so dollars each year. At any rate, a dozen or so times each day, a big helicopter whirls overhead, serving as a direct passenger link between the airport and Disney's absolutely fantastic emporium of entertain ment. We must confess that we were not among the throngs who were excited and pleased when this huge, colorful and gala amuse ment park opened a few years ago. It smacked just a bit too much of the contrived, the artificial, the "cute," to suit us as seen on television, anyway. But today, after spending much of yesterday exploring the highways and by-ways of this unbelievable creation, we not only have sore muscles, but an admiration for the imagination which created it. Disneyland provides a gaulimaufry of impressions, but the one which has stayed with us is that of cleanliness. From the freshly swept entrance road, through the six brightly painted turnstiles into the acres and acres of parking, on through the entrance and into the gay cities of the past, the future, and the story book, things were clean. A small army of white-clad men spend their days doing noth ing but marching around, armed with hand-broom and long-handled dust-pans, pouncing on gum wrappers, crushed out cigarettes, and the tons of trash which happy people discard without thought or care. Waste receptacles are everywhere even in the fairy castle of Fantasyland. No fairy grandmother is on hand to wave a hand and dispose of the garbage. It takes foresight, planning and hard work. Disneyland is huge. How many acres it covers we neglected to inquire, but it must be hundreds. Yet imagination and planning have kept it from being overpowering through sheer size. Build ings are less than life size, and the entire compound has been so carefully broken up that one hardly has a chance to grasp the overall picture because of the many little pictures pressing for attention. Only those arriving by helicopter, or those patient people who waited out the long line to ride the aerial tramway which carries one in a bucket high overhead, could have a chance to see Disney land all at one glance. But after spending several hours walking, one comes by the realization that one still has not yet seen all that there is to be seen. And the public transportation provided tiny trains of sev eral varieties, horse-drawn omnibuses, surreys and wagons, and and ancient motor buses is for more than just show and revenue. They serve a practical purpose for the footsore and weary. There must be something for everyone at Disneyland even .the super-critical who find rides modeled on the flight of Peter Pan, or the ride of the toad from "The Wind in the Willows," too special for sophisticated tastes. But the wonder of childhood re mains at least a little, in us all. And most adults cannot resist the attraction of a Mississippi river stern-wheeler, constructed to two thirds scale and which circumnavigates "Tom Sawyer's Island," a voyage of a mile or more; or a jaunt by launch through the jun gles of the world, complete with mechanical reptiles, animals and savages; or, at the very least, a drive on the "Autorama," a pee wee sized superhighway with pee-wee size gasoline cars to match. There are these, and much, much more. One can window-shop for, or purchase, Chinese glass, or record albums, or Spanish food or Southern cooking; or watch flickering old movies in a penny arcade, or go on a "trip to the moon." Through Disney's creative genius, and the ability of the Amer ican people to persuade themselves they are still kids, Disneyland has become an authentic entertainment mecca. Driving through the parking lot we saw auto licenses from so many states we lost count. All ages, races and colors are represented in the crowds attending, and all at least before bone-weariness sets in display a combination of holiday gaiety and puzzlement, as they try to fig ure out what their ticket books entitle them to see, and how to budget their time and money among the beckoning attractions. An old saying declares that if one stands long enough in Times Square (or is it Picadilly or Grand Central Station?) that he will see everyone he's ever known. This may not be true, and it may not be true of Disneyland, but we did see another Medford family, the L. W. Buonocores, and their three pretty daughters, and a family of friends from Pendleton. We have a hunch there were others in the milling throngs who we would have greeted with glad shouts had we happened to spy them. Another highlight of this trip) of a far different variety was a long visit with a roommate of bachelor days, who we had not seen for 11V4 years, and who is now a Catholic priest and as sistant pastor at the old mission of San Luis Obispo. A problem in our family arose when we were trying to decide how to address this close friend of many years. Should it be "Father George"? or just "George"? or, in the case of the girls, "Uncle George"? The girls solved it by making it "Uncle Father George," which despite the genealogical inexactitude, seemed to satisfy everyone. On our part, it resolved itself to "George" in informal circum stances, and "Father George" when we remembered, or when others were presnt. We called on him in the rectory, a building only a few years old immediately adjacent to the restored nave of the mission, first constructed in 1772. Father George invited us to his quarters, bade us wait a few moments while he completed a few pastoral chores, and left us after introducing us to the pastor, a monsignor, whose Irish brogue had the music, and almost the incomprehensi bility, of a foreign tongue. He insisted that our party join him in his quarters while we waited, and with great deliberation, and with many an anecdote and courteous question, proceeded to wash and dry glasses, and pour the adults a "nip of Christmas cheer." Later, after a festive dinner with Father George, and a reunion with other friends of days past, we distributed token gifts of Rogue River valley Cornice pears, and retired to our motel. In the morning, Father George took us through the old mission, and its museum of antiques and curios of days long gone, before we left and, drove south again through the warm, bright sunlight. Residents Reminded Of Tax Installment Portland Ralph C. Granquist, district director of the internal revenue service for Oregon, has reminded residents, other than farmers, that Wednesday, Jan. 15, is the deadline for paying the fourth and last installment on estimated Federal income tax returns for the year 1957. Granquist said those taxpay ers who filed an estimated re turn and have a payment due Jan. 15 should have received a notice by mail. If residents have previously filed an estimated return and events occurring in the last quar ter of 1957 indicate that income will be substantially more or less than the original estimate, an amended declaration should be filed Jan. 15. The declaration should be marked "amended" and should be filed with the same district director of the in ternal revenue service who re ceived the original declaration. A blank form for use as an amended declaration is printed on the back of the notice of pay ment due which you received. Monday, December 30, 1957 Dulles Said Astute By Vice President Miami (W Richard M. Nixon and the man he defeated for the vice presidency came to see the Oregon Bowl football game but got sidetracked Saturday in kick ing around the merits of Secre tary of State John Foster Dulles. Sen. Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.) started the clash by slapping at Dulles "lack of foreign policy leadership" and saying, "we and the free world will be better off the quicker we get rid of Dulles." Nixon, one of Dulles' top cheerleaders, told a news con ference that the secretary of state is the "most astute diplo mat" in recent American history, whose skill at the international bargaining table played a big role in keeping the United States out of war during recent years. Nixon, obviously referring to Dulles' "brink of war" state ments, pointed to major crises in Iran, Trieste, Guatemala and Syria which he said could have erupted into fighting. . MUMS P'CWNG SR W AN WOltf G 'M IM HERE Correspondents Look Ahead at Headlines By CHARLES M. McCANN United Press Correspondent United Press correspondents around the world look ahead at the news that will make the headlines. Decline Friends of Sir Anthony Eden are seriously worried about his health. His doctors have an nounced that he has recovered from a fever which kept him in bed on Christmas Day and the day after. But tha 60-year-old former British prime minister does not seem to be pulling back satisfactorily from his long se ries of abdominal illnesses. "Volunteers" This comes from Moscow through a. reliable diplomatic source: Russia is prepared to of fer Indonesia a corps of 8,000 "volunteers" if it tries to take Netherlands New Guinea by force. The corps is made up of Moslems. It was formed during the Suez Canal crisis, to be of fered to the Arab countries if war broke out. The Indonesians, like the Arabs, are Moslem. The "volunteer" corps, well-equipped for combat, has been kept , to gether. It has now been moved eastward in Siberia to be handy for dispatch to Indonesia or to New Guinea. Dulles and Herter Washington insiders say Sec retary of State John Foster Dulles and under Secretary Christian A. Herter, former gov ernor of Massachusetts, are now In the Day's News By FRANK Read this: It rained for the 15th straight day in Portland today and the weather man says above-normal precipitation is in store for Ore gon FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR. Sounds AWFUL, doe? n't it? WAIT a minute. Before closing up shop and heading for the desert, do a lit tle countirig on your fingers. The "rest of the year" is ONLY FOUR DAYS. Put that way, it doesn't sound so bad. IT ALL depends, you see, on HOW THE NEWS IS TOLD. When told sensationally, with out proper backgrounding, it is apt to scare us out oi our ooots. The same news, when put against its proper background, doesn't scare us at all. We can read it and go on about our business. HERE'S another example, cull ed from the current offerings of the teletypes: Russia has made two more scientific claims: 1. Radio Moscow reports Rus sian scientists are developing wingless, tailless jet planes capa ble of VERTICAL TAXEOFFS. 2. A Moscow newspaper hints that a projected new Soviet bomber will be able, when per fected, to FLY AROUND THE WORLD WITHOUT REFUEL ING. Makes your hair stand on end, doesn't it? BIT" Again WAIT A MINUTE. IF YOU'LL stop and thinK, you may recall that MONTHS AGO an interesting demonstra tion was held on the Pentagon grounds. In this demonstration, an American bomber stood on its tail on a launching platform. At a given signal, it rose STRAIGHT UP, leveled off, flew around the Pentagon area and then turned its nose up and settled down on its tail on the platform from which it was launched. And Only a few days ago we were told of a new American bomber that will use exotic new chemi cal fuels and will be able to fly around the world without refueling at speeds in excess of 2,000 miles per hour. pulling well together. In past months, Herter felt that Dulles didn't give him enough to do. There was speculation that he might quit.' When Herter went to Washington, he was regarded as an understudy, ready to step into the top job if Dulles stepped out. The latest report about Dulles is that he may toy with the idea of resigning when he reaches his 70th birthday, Feb. 25. But the feeling is that he will stay on and that Herter will stay with him now that their relations are better. Farmers A congressional sub-committee will predict, in a report due in January, another 10 years of rough financial sledding for American farmers. The forecast will be based on the continuing increase in production, despite crop controls, and the difficulty of finding markets for the in creased output. Eye Keep your eye on Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. He may play a big part in any move toward a conference between Russia and the western allies. Nehru would do anything he could to bring the two sides together. He is to confer next week with British Prime Min ister Harold Macmillan, who ar rives in New Delhi Jan. 8 . to begin a Commonwealth tour. Nehru may have some idea for Macmillan to relay to Washington. JENKINS HHHE coincidence is . striking enough that a cynic might suspect that the Russkies had listened to our reports of jets that rise straight up, soar around and then come back down and land on their tails and to our projections of bombers now on the drawing boards that will be able to fly around the world at speeds better than three times the speed of sound. The truth, undobutedly, is that we and the Russians are working along the same lines and that we both have good sci entists which doesn't upset us particularly. But the same set of facts, when SENSATIONALLY told, gives us the teeth-chattering jit ters and scares us blue. , OOUND advice: Let's keep our shirts on and refuse to be stampeded by the sensationalists. Anti-Red Refugee Program Stopped Gettysburg, Pa. OP) Presi dent Eisenhower Saturday or dered termination of the emer gency program for admitting Hungarian anti-Communist ref ugees to the United States, ef fective Dec. 31. At the same time, the White House announced that Mr. Ei senhower will renew his request to congress to grant permanent residence for 32,000 Hungarian refugees now in this country on a parole status. This request was turned down at the last session Under the emergency pro gram which started after Hun gary's freedom revolt 14 months ago, 38,000 refugees have come to the United States, about 6, 000 of them on regular immigra tion visas but the remainder under the parolee system set up by the justice department. The White House said it now is possible to end the program because o the "effective work" on the problem by various in ternational agencies, plus the ef fortsof 35 other countries in granting asylum to the refugees.

Former President Harry Truman To Keynote By LYLE C. VILIO United Press Correspondent Washington (IP) Former President Harry S. Truman is a friendly man who likes to re visit the scenes of yesteryear, splash some branch water in a dollop of Jack Daniels and chat. HST will be back in town in a few weeks as honoree at Lyle c. wussa a t e s timonial banquet from which the Demo cratic party will raise from $100 a plate up. The date, just an nounced, is Feb. 22. The former President that night will be keynoting the 1958 Democratic congressional cam paign. The occasion will give Truman scope for the kind of give-em-hell operations in which he delights. Some of his nostal gia for his former Washington haunts, however, will be unap peased. Mr. T., for example, probably will not revisit the Senate cham ber in the north wing of the Capitol where he rose from ob scurity to the vice presidency of the United States. The former President has some personal rules of conduct and one of them is that he will not enter a room in which Vice President Richard M. Nixon is present. Nixon Avoided On a visit to Washington some years ago the former President was about to enter the Senate chamber to sit at his old desk for old times' sake when he paused just outside the barrier. Turning to his escort of friends, Truman snapped that he would not enter if Nixon were there. The vice president not only was absent from the chamber, he was outside the continental limits of the United States on a mission for President Eisenhow er. Being assured of that, Tru man entered and had a hig time. His feud with Nixon goes back to the 1952 and 1954 political campaigns in which the vice president wounded the feelings of most Democratic party lead ers with his frank discussion of Communist infiltration of the U.S. government. Truman has made no effort to conceal his dislike for the vice president. His feelings towards President Eisenhower are less well known. Truman's friends, however, get the impression now that the man from Missouri is no more willing to meet with Eisenhower than with Nixon. Campaign Talk Accepted Eisenhower campaign talk has not upset his predecessor. On the contrary, Truman occasion ally has spoken of the President Rough Treatment Seen over Foreign Policy, Defense Washington (IP) The Sen ate's second-ranking Democrat has indicated that the Eisen hower administration faces some rough treatment, in the coming session of Congress over its handling of foreign policy and national defense. Sen. Mike Mansfield (D. Mont., assistant Senate Demo cratic leader, made use of a television interview Sunday to attack the administration rec ord in those fields. He included President Eisen hower in his criticism by say ing the President "ought to ex ercise more aggressive leader ship" in foreign policy. Challenges Assertion Interviewed on NBC's tele vision program "M e e t the Press," Mansfield challenged a White House assertion that the United States "at this time" is not militarily weak when com pared with the Soviet Union. Presidential Press Secretary James C. Hagerty said at Gettys burg Saturday that some news paper accounts of the so-called Gaither report have given a false impression that this na tion is in a weak military posi tion. Hagerty said the report "says just the opposite." Open to Question ,But Mansfield said Hagerty's remark is "open to serious ques tion." In fact, he said, he thinks that nation has been "out maneuvered, out-witted and pos sibly out-flanked by the Soviet Union." The Montana Democrat, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations committee, demanded "new ideas and new policies" ; for U.S. foreign aid. j He charged that the admini stration was still operating with "old Democratic policies which many of us have felt have out lived their usefulness."

What seems to irk Truman is that there has been no White House call . on him for advice and counsel. Eisenhower has paid Truman no discourtesy but he has paid him no attention, either. Whatever the offense may have been, it was great enough to break what began as a beautiful friendship. Capt. Harry S. Truman, the Robert Smith Named Ambassador for State By A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Correspondent Washington Newspapermen should never get involved in partisan politics for or against anyone, T's is a maxim to which all re porters should swear, as phy sicians swear to the code of Hippocrates, if the term free press is to have any meaning for the readers of a democracy. But there is A Robt Smith a time and a place for every thing, one supposes, and this is one of those times. For I am about to become officially parti san in behalf of the state of Ore gon for at least the next year and a half. Certificate Delivered Just delivered to me is a beau tiful certificate which certifies that "Mr. Robert Smith is duly appointed a member of the gov ernor's staff as Oregon's ambas sador at large." Me, without a cutaway. Not even a fancy red cummerbund to hold my middle in. My commission is "to serve the Great State of Oregon by advising the people of your na tion of the One Hundredth An niversary of the Oregon Coun try which will be commemorat ed in 1959." Between a reproduction of the famous Oregon pioneer sta tue and an artist's conception of the Buck Rogers era of tomor row, the certificate goes on to say: Largest Markets "The western states of the United States have become one of America's largest markets for import products. Twenty - four million people reside in these western states now. "Oregon believes it incum bent upon itself to encourage international trade and a major feature of our Centennial cele bration in 1959 is an internation al trade fair. It will be viewed by millions of American con sumers and all of the principal traders involved in export and import traffic of this huge area of North America. "We encourage participation by your friends and those com panies and agencies of your country which may wish to es tablish their good name, their products and their services in the great Pacific Northwest, Oregon, and the City of Port land, in this western region of the United States of North America." - Bipartisan Appointment Politically speaking, this is a very bipartisan appointment. The signatures on the certificate are those of Gov. Robert D. Holmes, who admits to being a Democrat, and the chairman of the centennial commission, An thony Brandenthaler, who is proud to be regarded as a Re publican. So I reckon it's safe to accept it. ' Jakarta, Indonesia HP) Foreign Minister Subandrio Sat urday indicated Indonesia might turn to the Communist bloc for arms if it is unable to get them from the United States. FUNERAL SERVICES In Every Price Range Since 1908 PERL Funeral Home Phone SP 2-6675 Qrfi1lAmfrvifn . tit i T i- artilleryman of World War T. has a soft heart for soldiers, es pecially generals, barring, of course, Gen. Douglas MacAr thur. Eisenhower relates in his "Crusade for Europe" that in 1945 Truman looked him in the eye and said: "General, there is nothing that you may want that I won't try to help you get. That defi nitely and specifically includes the presidency in 1948." Times have changed considerably since then. It will be no hardship to be partisan in behalf of so beauti ful a state as Oregon. Every Oregonian I have ever met trav eling here in the east has dem onstrated that in full measure by his lyrical praise of his home state. The state, of course, has plen ty worth praising. Some speak longingly of its scenery, Crater lake, the beaches, snow-capped . Mt. Hood. Some think of the Pendleton Roundup while away from Oregon. Some even men tion the Oregon rain in loving fashion. With such plentiful potential to praise, is it any wonder that all Oregonians away from home become, if you'll pardon the ex pression, Oregon's ambassadors plenipotentiary? Technically, however, they are ambassadors without port folio, unless the governor and the Centennial chairman give them formal apppintments and issue each traveling Oregonian his ambassadorial credentials. Every Oregonian who loves his state would then have the com mission he manifestly deserves. Governtment Hikes Real and Personal Property Holdings Washington (IP) The U. S. government has boosted its property at home and abroad to at least $250 billion worth $15 billion more than a year ago. A congressional committee, reporting this, said the govern ment owns 409 million acres of land in the continental United States and 363 million acres abroad. This, it said, is equival ent to all the states east of the Mississippi river plus California, Oregon and Arizona. Real, Personal Property The House Government Oper ations committee report covers both real and personal property and includes everything from air bases to plants in the botanical gardens. The committee's third annual inventory, which it said was on the conservative side, listed to tal federal property holdings at $250,029,591,000 as of June 30, 1957. This was an increase of $15 billion over the same date in 1956 and $43 billion over 1955. The committee noted the lat est total was still below the national debt of about $274 bil lion. Grounds Valued , Some years ago the District of Columbia assessor valued the White House grounds, not in cluding the buildings, at $23, 623,000. The committee said the ctual worth of the Presidio grounds in San Francisco is es timated at $50 million. In this country, government land holdings range from 6,000 acres in Connecticut to 61 mil lion acres in Nevada. Military real estate was val ued at nearly $25 billion, $2 billion increase over 1956. The committee said nearly 70 per cent of the hike was in Air Force properties. AT PERL'S every family may make funeral ar rangements which are In keeping with its means.
