MiteK Owl Nugget, Popgun There ire 21 daily circulation published in like both the Mail Tribune and the Asjjland 'lid ings, are long-established papers, some of them the inheritors of traditions and names which go back into Oregon history and result from earlier mergers and purchases. Others, like the Daily Register in McMinn ville, are relatively recent newcomers to the daily field, havinp; been weeklies or semi-weeklies. Most of them have familarity, no longer have the ring of the un usual" to them, if, indeed, they ever did. THERE are names Herald, Chronicle, News and Journal, which sometimes in combination with other names, now are as familiar to their room furnture. There are two daily in Portland, and the East.Oregonian in Pendle- to. One paper the World m Coos Bay recent ly assumed that name after many years of operat ing as the Times. But the World and the Daily Register, names of Ore gon's dailies have been fairly stable and un changed in . recent years. . These reflections were brought to mind by an article in the current issue of the Oregon Pub lisher, written by George S. Turnbull, for many years professor and later dean at the school of journalism at the University, of Oregon. Now on emeritus status, he is devoting his time to research and writing, much of it on the histoiy of Oregon papers, on which he is the state's leading authority and author. OIS article is entitled "What Names They Used to -Fasten on Their Papers!" In it he recalls some of the odd, unusual or even ludicrous names which in the past graced the mastheads of Ore gon newspapers. Turnbull doesn't exactly mourn the passing of the "odd" names associated with newspapers of the past, but he does sound a bit wistful over the fact that most newspapers today have staid and prosaic names, not like the colorful and imag inative ones of the past. There was, for instance, the Agitator, which apparently lived up to its name, even after the title was changed to the Bee in 1915. Turnbull says that an irate subscriber once took a jugfull of dynamite to the office. Fortunately, the fuse failed to function. AURORA BOREALIS uauci, uuunsucu in Aurora, of course. Others included Atlas, Ava lanche-Journal, Criterion, Headlight (still part of paper in Tillamook, the inally named after the now defunct lighthouse at lillamook head). There was the Irrigator at that euphonious town, Irngon, Oregon. Lakeview. (The name apparently referred to the energy of the editor, not to the business of steal ing cattle.) The Mattock, the Mite, the Nonpareil, he Nucleus and the Nugget wrere others. The paper which probably had the longest name in Oregon history, the Oregon American and third m the territory. It lasted for eight issues. COME of the names came from characteristics of the land, like the Radium, the Sagebrush, and the Oregon Mist. Others, along the coast, had a nautical flavor, like the Siuslaw Oar (still being published), the Surf, and several Pilots. There was the Owl and the Philistine, the Hatchet and the Scout, and the Other Side. One was entitled Three Sisters (referring to three towns, not to the Cascade mountains of that name), and another was simply Talk. Our two favorites, howqver, were the Popgun, published in Amity in 1891 '(where another paper was named the Blade obviously a weapons minded town) and, over in Edmonds, Wash., was the Lyre. Lots of newspapers have been called the other kind of liar, but as far as we know, none has been named that. E.A. Building Boom Coming Oregon's lumber market was feeling its first nudges of optimism last week, as activity in the field began to pick up. " We confidently predict that more optimism is coming. And we cite as a cause one of a number of soundly-based predictions as to building activ ity in the nation in the years just ahead. One of the most startling was that given last week by the Architectural Forum. IN THE next 10 years, Forum said, there will be a "fabulous" building boom, totaling $600 BILLION dollars, a valuation in excess of all buildings nowr standing in the United States. School building will be up 45 per cent, Forum forecast, business building will be up 70 per cent, residential building up 70 per cent, and there will be comparable increases in hospital and church construction, to say nothing of increased spending on highways. Even if Forum is only half right, the impact on this area's lumber economy is going to be something to behold. E.A. ' -: Monday, February 10. 1958 newspapers of general Oregon.

Moscow as well as London and Washington have adopted wait-and-see policy al though for entirely different reasons. Moscow seemed worried lest the federation of Syria with Egypt and Yeman might bar the road to further and deeper Soviet pentration in the strategic Middle . East. The West feared the new movement's potenial impact on Lebanon and the independ ent Arab kingdoms of Jor don, Iraq and Saudi Arabia, and the stability of the stra Matter of Fact bv ai.op FREEDOM'S GATEWAY Berlin Imagine the drear ier kind of low income hous ing development, with the leprous, grayish cement walls, the treeless vi erounds and other custom ary signs of municip al economy1. It is' surrounded by a high wire fence that makes a black tracery in the Berlin winter Joseph Alsop fog. The entrance to this de pressing compound is simply the main doorway of one of the blocks of housing, ap proached by a mere muddy path. Nothing marks the door but two small crests, the eagle of West Germany and the bear of West Berlin. Such is the greatest, the almost unique gateway to freedom in the world today " the shabby portal of Berlin's refugee transit camp of Marianfelde Who in all the comfortable, self-indulgent West has heard of Marianfelde? Yet in the suffering German province of the Soviet empire, Marian felde has the fame and promise that Ellis Island used to have, in the distant days when the people of the United States really meant every word of the lines on the Statue of Lib erty: "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. The wretched refuse of your teeming shore." rFHEY come to Marianfelde, the refugees, the freedom seekers, by hundreds daily. There "were 8,500 last month. This month there will prob ably be as many. They make their pitiful pre parations. They say goodbye to the familiar faces and fa miliar rooms long inhabited, neighbors long known, often even land long tilled to all those things in, short that give life its setting and its mean ing for most men and women. From all over the East Zone they take their rail tickets, never to Berlin but always to a further station, in order to deceive the ever-present Com munist police. There is a breathless mo ment leaving the train at Ber lin. There is another breath less moment crossing from Berlin's East Sector into Ber lin's West Sector. And the end is what I first saw when I went out to Marianfelde a tired gray man and his tired gray wife, each bearing a pitifully small bundle, with two children still bright faced with youth's marvellous resil ience, all trudging down the and West tegic area at large Soviets Also Surprised The unmistakable signs here were that both the West and the Soviet Union were taken by surprise. While Arab fed eration ideas had been fre quently voiced, the speed of recent union moves between Cairo, Damascus and Yemen was unexpected. The West's silence was of ficially motivated by the ab sence of definitive information so far on the scope of Arab unity aims. Responsible dip lomatic observers conceded that while the motives for the speed-up of this Arab policy remained obscure pre mature Western reaction may be "more than usually risky." Moscow Radio, normally quick in taking up mideastern change, limited itself to vague references and a hopeful pre dicition that they were bound to hurt "imperialist" inter- muddy portal. path to the shabby "Processed" they must be. of course; lor who escapes "processing" in modern SO' ciety? And besides, some of those who come are fleeing criminals or pretended refu gees having missions from their Communist masters, S THE stuffy uniformed bureaucrat on the gate gives the newcomers a short smile and quickly shunts them into a grim - litUe waiting room. And thence they are called out for the long Marian felde processing registrar tion; police and intelligence; medical examination; certifi cation as bona fide refugees; second medical; assignment to a future home in West Ger many; and at long" last the crowded bus journey to Tern pelhof airport and the crowd ed air flight to life in the West. This processing, inevitably, takes a good many days. So there are always 2,000 or more refugees living at Mar ianfelde. It is not very charm ing or very comfortable; for each little room has six bunks and there may be two fam ilies to a room. But it is only a way station. The food is ample and good. And the at mosphere might be described as placidly cheerful." As you go among the refu gees, too, you discover that they are oddly matter-of-fact about themselves and their choice of freedom. A good many of them will tell you, only half in ioke that the furniture so hardly scrimped for was the hardest anchor to cast off. High heroism and really brutal oppression do not often figure in their tales either. The children's educa tion; or their religious faith; or a new spy in the neighbor hood "who looked like a real troublemaker" these are the sorts of reasons they give most often for the great break they have made. Two brawny, genial young uranium miners from Saxony, both former Party members, even said: "We got the hell out be cause the damn party said we had to be activists; and we were doing too damn much work for too little pay al ready!" SOMETIMES, one even en counters high comedy, as did when the camp direct or, Dr. Kari zammer, iuva. me to watch one of the 20 commissions that investigate and certify the bona fides of the refugees. It is always a tense moment, this appearance before the commission. For an uncertified refugee must either retrace his steps or go to rot in a detention camp.

Dulles Policy Condemned To the Editor: A netition fr.om the Peace Committee of the Oregon chapter of the Methodist Federation for Social Action unani mously approved by the chapter's executive board at the regular meeting, Feb. 4, 1958, has been sent to Pres ident Eisenhower. The ap peal follows: My dear Mr. President: As informed citizens, we are appalled by the refusal of the State Department of our government to partici pate in a Summit, confer ence for the purpose of reaching an agreement with the Soviet Union on the banning of nuclear explos ions and taking the neces sary initial steps toward the attainment' of perman ent peace in the world. Almost daily, in the news papers and by radio, we are warned by prominent industrial, scientific and military figures in govern ment that the latest scien tific developments in the art of mass murder and de struction are now capable ests. But significantly it nas so far not offered an analysis of Soviet views on the issue. But while official comment was being wirnneia, unarm ed diplomatic speculation did not minimized the potential effect of the current Arab unification moves on the over all international scene. First and foremost, atten tion focused on the vital ques tion of whether or not the federation stands a real chance of success and durab ility. Opinions Divided On this point opinions re main divided xo date, ine hunger for closer Arab uni- ficiation stems from an age- old dream and from the doc trine of Arab nationalism that separate states are not nec essary. But some observers doubt ed that federation will prove workable in reality. Success or failure are gauged, they said, by the ability of the Arabs leaders to consolidate the experiment of federation quickly and to expand it. For these reasons, diploma tic observers feared that the growing pressure will be ex erted by the United Arab Re public on the neighboring Arab states. Jordan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Lebanon are committed to the doctrine of Arab unity though not to administrative unification. But Western ob servers cautioned that the next few months will be cru cial for the "survival" of these Arab nations as fully inde pendent states. cate seeker was a young archi tect suffering from aesthetic creeps brought on by the pompous falsehood of Com munist official architecture, He just could not go on de signing schools in the style of the Stalinallee, so he had fled. "It was ghastly, really ghast ly," he kept saying. After serious debate the commission members, two of them former refugees them selves, decided that enforced architectural design in the style of the Stalinallee did not entitle the applicant to be classed as a "persecutee," which carries certain priv ileges. "Bona fide refugee, but not persecutee" was the ver dict. It caused evident disap pointment. Yet even in the young.arcm- tect's splendidly passionate case of the aesthetic creeps, one could read something of the erimness and deep moral horror of the thing being fled from. And even in that flush ed, earnest, humorless young face one could read another lesson. It is the best and brightest who come to Marian felde which is another rea son why the Free City of Berlin is one of the greatest moral, responsibilities of all the West.

It is Reuther's influence within and upon the Demo cratic party that makes big news of the fact that he is to be a witness this month before the Senate committee to inves tigate improperties in labor management relations. Strange Things Happen There is no publicly per suasive record that the com- of annihilating humanity. We are further admonish ed by governmental spokes men that the Soviet Union also possesses these destruc tive devices. Recently, American newspapers car ried this terrifying state ment from a well-known newspaper man, "The world lives in a tension that could snap into a holocaust some afternoon if a wild goose showed up on a radar screen." In the face of this ever increasing world tension, Secretary Dulles obstinate ly clings to his strange theory that world peace can be accomplished only by building a gigantic military establishment capable of massive retaliation, by creating a vast network of military alliances" and by leading our country re peatedly to the brink of war. As responsible citi zens concerned about the' future of our children and our country, we reject this Diplomacy of Death and Hopelessness. We are de termined that our children shall live their lives free of the terror which Dulles' unsuccessful policies have forced upon us. . We shall work to make scientific progress in our country and in the rest of the wbrld a servant of man rather than a homicidal or suicidal influence. If this cannot be done, Mr. Presi dent, every increase of knowledge will, be only an other step towards ultimate and complete disaster. Therefore, Mr. Presi dent, we petition you to call immediately a summit con ference of the representa tives of the leading nations of the world for the pur pose of banning nuclear weapons and laying the foundations for a permanent peace. We feel certain, Mr. President, that the over whelming support of the American people will be given to the peace objec tives of such a summit con ference. Mark A.

On October 9 -mo fin the same thing in reverse to get back on Eastern Standard time.

However, Congress can put all Interstate Commerce and Communications under the Standard Time act without reference to local time by a carrier or network.

Stop the Slaughter To the Editor: Methinks tne Farm Editor is all riled up at the wrong people. It is com mon knowledge that our meat animals are slaughtered in a brutal and barbaric manner where humane methods are not employed. Their screams of agony may be heard by all in the vicinity of stockyards. Yet, the ones who raise the cattle, sheep and hogs, the farmers who grow their food, the consumers who eat the meat, have done nothing. Now if people could see one calf or lamo Kiuen ac cording to present practices a great cry of protest would ensue, but because millions are handled and slaughtered this way it is ignored. Through the years humani- mittee has anything on Reu ther likely to embarrass him seriously. But stranger things have happened than that a witness who seemed to be in vulnerable to 'congressional committee investigation has found himself in serious and unexpected trouble. That could happen to Reu ther and if it did, the Demo cratic party would be wound ed as badly as the labor move ment. Reuther came of age as a political power in the 1956 Democratic National Conven tion in Chicago. Harry S. Truman had slugged that party conclave off balance by undertaking to head off a second presiden tial nomination for Adlai E. Stevenson with his own more left-of-center choice, Gov. Av erell Harriman of New York. There was substantial favorite son opposition to Stevenson too, and Michigan's Gov. G. Mennen Williams was in on it. The Michigan governor had obtained his delegation's en dorsement as a favorite son, thereby withholding those urgently desired convention votes from Stevenson Williams Anti-Stevenson Williams was a leader in the Stevenson-won't-do chorus. All of his chips were down in a play to use the big Michi gan delegation in a stop-Stevenson maneuver and, maybe, wind up himself as No. 2 man on the ticket with Harriman or someone else. For Williams the stakes were big. The con vention was pretty much deadlocked. That is the way it was in the small hours of Wednesday, Aug. 15, 1956, when Reuther, a delegate, caused the Michi gan delegation to gather a few minutes after 2 ajn. mirty-nine mmutes later a United Press buUetin revealed that the deadlock was broken, The bulletin said: "Gov. G. Mennen Williams said early today he wiU urge Michigan's delegation to throw its 44 votes to Adlai E. Stevenson." That killed Harriman's can didacy. Big Ohio and New Jersey swarmed behind Michi gan to the Stevenson band wagon. It was Reuther who forced Williams out as Michi gan's favorite son, a strategy which made it possible for the convention promptly to nomi nate Stevenson as its presi dential candidate. Reuther is a genuinely pow erful man more powerful in the councils of the Democratic party of Michigan than Wil liams, who has been elected governor four times running. tarians have tried to do some thing to stop this cruelty and lately have made a concerted effort. Our congressmen write that they favor these reforms but the large packing houses employ a powerful group of lobbyists' to prevent the Hu mane slaughter bills from be coming the law 'of the land. Since the adult stock raisers have become inured to the suffering of meat animals, the young adults in F.F.A. work and the 4-H club members could help in getting this legislation passed. Any child raised on a farm knows the fate of meat animals and I'm sure he would rest easier if the pet steer or sheep or even hog he had raised would be spared the brutality that is now prevalent.

In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS The Institute of Life In surance, in a report just issued, tells us that In the decade from 1946 to 1956 Americans increased their personal debts at TWICE THE RATE at which they increased their savings. But- The Institute says In 1957 Americans added more to their nest-egg In life insurance and other long term savings than they con tracted in debts. THE 1946-1956 decade was a SPENDING decade. The war ended in 1945. During the war, people generally saved more than they spent. Responding to the urge of patriotism, they bought sav ings bonds to help finance the war. Besides There wasn't too much to spend money for Among other things, it was practical ly impossible for an ordinary citizen to buy a new automo bile. The ordinary person could buy about four gaUons of gasoline per week. You couldn't build a fancy new house. There were then so manv. MANY things one couldn't do with his money. But one al ways could SAVE IT UP. rpHE result was that we - nearly all came out of the war with a considerable ac cumulation of savings and an enormous accumulation of WANTS. So When the fighting ended and the holders were taken off, we began to spend our money. When we had spent what we had accumulated, we stiU wanted more things especially the things we hadn't been able to buy while the war was on. So we began to buy them on the cuff so much down and so much a month. THOSE were the yean when we were piling up debts twice as fast as we were piling up savings. We were pushed farther in the spend ing direction by the fact that prices were rising steadily. When we went to the store to buy a shirt, we were apt to wind up buying TWO shirts on the theory that when we got around to needing an other shirt the PRICE WOULD BE HIGHER: One of the things steadily rising inflation and steadily rising prices always do is to stimulate buying to beat higher prices later. THERE came then, at the end of these post-war years, the year of our Lord .1957, with its accompanying "recession" which was probably more of a catching up period than anything else. SO We slowed down our buy ing. We began to wear our old clothes longer. We began to drive our old cars longer. We began to use some of the things we had bought and stashed away to beat higher prices later. And We began to pay up our In stallment debts faster than we took on new ones. The result of all this was an INCREASE IN SAVINGS. All in all, what happened In 1957 was a healthy develop ment. AMERICANS are often ac cused of being a reckless lot. But what happened in 1957 indicates that they have more basic common sense than they are generally ac credited with. FALSE TEETH .
