Neuberger Reputation Portland OP Sen. Richard L. Neuberger says Oregon has gained a reputa tion in Congress as the "tin cup state." Neuberger, who said he has been threatened with politi cal reprisal from some mem bers of his own party because of his recent voting record, told a news conference at his home Sunday that Oregon's demands for many federal projects had earned the state the "tin cup" monicker. The Oregon Democrat said he has helped get Republican support for projects benefic ial to Oregon because they realized "I don't always have the tin cup out," and favor only federal spending. 'You'll Stay Home' He said that he had been told "you'll stay home after the next election" by some members of his own party and htd been criticized by Demo crats for supporting the Eis enhower administration on some issues. "I'll bet on the good sense and the good judgment of the people of the state of Oregon," he said. He said he did not know if he would be a candidate for reelection. He called his work as a senator the "hardest" he has ever done. Neuberger said Democrats had criticized him for not be ing liberal. "You can be liber al and you can be re sponsible" he said. "I don't think I've become a reaction ary." Fvcal Responsibility Cited He said he believed he could be accused of hypocrisy if he had voted for a pay in crease for postal employees without voting for an increase in postal rates to finance it. Neuberger said he had helped win support for large Swiss Report Ties Smoking and Cancer Bern, Switzerland (IP) The Swiss Federal Health of fice reported Monday that a seven-year Swiss study shows "there can be no doubt left about a direct connection be tween the number of cigar ettes consumed and lung can cer. "The rate of .lung cancer among smokers who do not smoke cigarettes and non smokers shows a small but marked difference," the re port said. "The difference between non-smokers and cigarettes on the other hand is so pro pronounced that there can be no doubt left about a direct connection between the num ber of cigarettes consumed and lung cancer," the report said. 30 YEARS FOR 13 CENTS Birmingham, Ala.

Butler said Monday Russia's announcement that it is stopping atomic tests is "one of the most severe de feats suffered by the United States in the cold war." He declared that according to virtually all the experts "we are losing the cold war and losing it badly, without ever firing a shot." He said the Eisenhower administra tion had "allowed" Russia to score a "propaganda victory" and a "disastrous' blow" to U. S. prestige by announcing a halt in nuclear tests. In an address prepared for a Rotary club meeting here, Butler also charged the Re publican administration had "allowed" the nation's rate of economic growth to deter iorate to an average of one- half of what it was during the Truman Democratic ad ministration. He listed as "anti-business" the administration's so-called "tight money" policy, its farm policy and its "drastic" cut backs in defense spending. He said all these have contribut ed to the business recession.

I have always been fairly popular and have had several offers of marri age. Some of them have been from quite nice men, but I never felt seriously drawn to any of them. Not long ago I met a wid ower of 40. He has two chil dren of 13 and 15. I met him in connection with business and he didn't think of asking me out until I made a pre text to have dinner with him. We discovered that in spite of the difference in pur ages, we have a world of things in common. He wants to marry me, but is worried about the differ ence in our ages. I feel now that I can never love anyone else, but my parents are mak ing the most tremendous up roar and have even made threats against this man. Mr, L. F. What right has a man of that age with two nearly grown children to make advances to a girl who looks closer to 16 than her real age? Our daughter is still a youngster. She knows nothing about life. Surely, she'll want a family. This man looks as though he just wants to be free to enjoy himself. They look ridiculous together. My wife and I have been in a state of near collapse over this. Freda has had so many good opportunities for marriage. Why should she choose a man who looks old enough to be her father? I would be ashamed to say he is my son-in-law. We have refused to let this man enter our home again and Freda meets him outside. What kind of man would put up with that? The Council: The hysteria of these parents is driving Freda straight into the arms of the man they oppose. What alternative has she when the person she believes she loves is excluded from her home? This same hysteria also pre vents both Freda and her par ents from seeing some of the very real problems involved in this relationship. Mr. L. F. speaks much of how things "look." Freda "looks" 16, the man "looks" as though he doesn't want a family, they "look" ridiculous together. But what about the way things really are? Mr. L. F. has not given himself a chance to ask any of the real questions. Does this man, after all, want a new family? What about the care of .his two adolescent children? Will Freda be expected to be a mother to them? If so, does she realize the burden and responsibility she is taking on? Does Freda fully realize that she would be marrying a man who is approaching middle age and does she un derstand the full,implications of this fact? The full answers to these questions may help Freda to see the problem in a different light. But the questions may very well go unanswered if the parents prefer to remain in a state of near collapse. Mr. and Mrs. L. F. should recognize that, despite her ap pearance, their daughter is not 16. Their tendency to treat " her as if she were a teenager could, however, be a factor in pushing her to ward an older man, who makes her feel more grown up, while at the same time serving as a substitute parent.

Johnston & Stewart Main & Central Medford Rolls Royce Makes Into Double Bed; Highlights International Auto Show By DOC QUIGG United Press Correspondent New York itPi I've seen lot of things in New York's great showcase Coliseum, but I never expected to.be intro duced to an SI 8,000 Rolls Royce that makes up into a double bed. This is absolutely on the level. The thing has seats that fold in all directions. Single beds, double bed, lounging chairs. You fold the back seats forward and the whole back section becomes an entension of the luggage compartment ! space for 15 suitcases. Its glass partition between front and back seats is de tachable, in case you want to get chummy with the chauf feur. This Rolls is also the most expensive built-in writ ing tables, electric razor, pic nic table, expresso coffee maker with butane gas stove, sewing kit, mineral water cab inet, and scores of other nec essities. Show in Full Throttle As you may have guessed, the International Automobile show is in full throttle at the Coliseum this week. On the first floor alone, you are greeted by the great names of Skoda, Simca, Vespa, Mai co, Volkswagen, Citroen, Mar-cedes-Benz, Studebaker, and Packard. There are tiny buglike cars from foreign climes; big four eyed blunderbusses from America; cars blooming with gardens of gadgetry and chrome; cars with a sack-dress look. There is a Citroen (the pride of France) with a jonquil-green body and a sort of leopard upholstery and a front end that looks remark ably like a bullfrog bulging eyes and a wide, shovel snout and mouth. A spare tire fits under the point of the sout. Hard by the Citroen show is its subsidiary make, Panhard.

Smoke Machine Said Ineffective Because adult mosquitoes have become immune to mate rial used in the county smoke machine it will be impractical to use it in the future, accord ing to Walter I. Sutherland. This leaves the elimination of breeding places as the only practical solution of the lo cal problem, he said. As there are cattle and oth er livestock running in most of the wet land it is impossi ble to use any of the larva cides in the hatching areas as there is always a possiblity that the stock will drink enough of the treated water to cause illness. Another de terrent to the spraying of hatching areas is that in many instances the water runs into creeks and eventual ly into the Rogue river, and practically all the usable in secticides are poisonous to fish, Also, the cost of such a program would be prohibi tive. Most of the breeding places could be eliminated by the proper use of irrigation wa ter and the drainage of ter minal sloughs. Anyone having such a prob lem should contact Suther land at the office of the Jack son County Health depart ment, the County Agent's of fice, or the Bureau of Recla mation. All of these organiza tions have expressed a will ingness to help farmers cor rect improper water usages.
