How to
The principle of "united giving," first given
practice in the "community chests" of some years
aero, which later laro-elv o-avp. wav to "united
o
funds," operating under
been successiui up to a point.
There was a time when everv rjublic-snirited
. . X X
and public-service agency operated in its own
r i ? t 1 ' !L1- i-
iuna-raismg curve, a Dusinessman wiin a reputa
tion for penerositv could 'be solicited a score of
C? - 4
times during a single vear.
For a time, the community chest idea was suc
cessful m eliminating much ol this sort or thing.
DUT. as time went on, many agencies discovered
thev could raise more monev on their own
than they could expect
anneal.
Also, as time went
sprang up, raising money lor causes which were
good, usually with a strong emotional appeal (the
National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis is an
excellent example). When their appeal was
strong enough, they tended to do oetter at iuna
raising alone than in connection with a com
rrmnitv chest or united fund.
On the other hand, the long-established service
organizations of a community, which felt respon
sibility to the communities they served, usually
tended to stay in the united appeal irameworK,
because they usually met all or part of their needs
this wav. because it eliminated the hard work in
volved in a fund camnaism. and because they did
noi want to cross the
- - 1 m -m
tormulated and carried
organization. : .
DUT, by and large, since World War II, the
united appeal type of organization "all
the begs in one askit," as the phrase had it has
operated relatively wen, with tne exceptions no
ted above. v
It has been particularly successful in Med
ford, both as to inclusiveness and as to success
in raising the quotas and meeting the needs of
the participating agencies. Success has been less
marked in some other cities, and good or better
in a few.
One of. the big advantages of a united appeal
and one not readily recognized by the public as
a whole, is the fact that
ticipating agencies are given a scanning by a
budget committee. ..
WHILE this scanning has, understandably,
given rise to considerable irritation on the
part of some agencies which have been denied,
or whose requests have been scaled down, it
does serve as a protection to the donor.
- And the screening often has eliminated some
national solicitations which are either question
able as to method, or too specialized to appeal
to a general charitable approach.
The united fund appeal in the case of
Medford entitled the United Medford Crusade,
which is the successor to the old Community
Chest and to the "Medford Plan" of some years
ago has not fully solved the problem.
FEW of the health agencies have joined, and
some which have are planning to "disaffili
ate," including the American Cancer Society.
Most of them make general and frequently
successful appeals, on the model of the Polio
Foundation.
Still other agencies, both health and other
wise, use the stamp appeal "pioneered by the
Tuberculosis association, and later adopted by
the Society for Crippled Children and Adults,
Father Flanagan's Boys Town, and others.
There are the tag sales (such as that spon
sored by the Disabled American Veterans which
sell auto license tags to use on key rings), ad
dress stickers, and other gadgets' and gimmicks.
"IITE admire the spirit and intent of almost all
of them.
But for the ordinary individual it is impos
sible to make any substantial contribution to them
all, and he finds himself right back , where he
was several years ago, when he had to pick and
choose among many supplicants to decide to
which to give.
The best advice we can give is simply this:
Give to the extent which you can afford, and
to the appeals which, on logical examination,
seem to give the best chance of your money do
ing the most good.
The United Medford Crusade is almost en
tirely devoted to the welfare of young people,
with a few other functions also included.
HAPJTY in the old fashioned sense of giv-
ing to relieve human hunger and suffering
has been taken over by goverment, to a large
extent, but still lives through the Salvation Army
and the Red Cross, both of them United Appeal
members.
As to the health agencies, one can find an
appeal for almost any type of crippling or killing
disease, and one must follow one's own con
science as to which is the most deserving.
It does seem a pity, though, that the indi
vidual who is interested in the conquest of all
diseases has no one agency to which to make a
single donation. E. A. -

Plugs Power Initiative
To the Editor: Here we are
in the midst of a depression,
and by my means of reckon
ing nearly five million people
out of work is a depression.
What's being done? Pre
cious little, that's what. The
Administration is static and
actionless; the forces in Con
gress that would rectify this
situation are overwhelmed by
inert Republicans and South
ern Democrats.
This leaves the recession
problem up to the states,
many of which have uncon
vened legislatures and are un
able to act (like Oregon); yet
we can do something to spark
the economy for now and
many a year to come.
It's the initiative petition
for an Oregon Power Devel
opment Commission, endorsed
by the Oregon branches of the
Grange, the Farmers' Union,
and the AFL-CIO.
This power commission
would lure new industries and
new jobs into the state with
cheap, plentiful, hydro-electricity
primarily by purchasing
federally-generated power as
a preference customer and re
selling it to new industries,
presently the lowest preferred
customers for Bonneville pow
er, thanks to a . McKay-
arranged contract : : between
the federal government and
the private power companies.
Also this way Oregon will be
able to get'" its fair share of
federally - generated power
from the Columbia River as
Washington now does with its
many public utilities, aU pref
erence customers.
Let's have an Oregon Pow
er Development Commission
for new industries and vitally
needed new jobs through
cheap, plentiful electricity.

Strontium-Fluorine
To the Editor: This is a
continuation of Mark A.
Chamberlain's argument in
the Tribune June 5th.
Strontium 90 is soluble and
can therefore be eliminated
from the body. The amount
retained by the bones of the
body depends upon the degree
of calcium' deficiency. It is
true that the majority of -us
do suffer from calcium de
ficiency as is evidenced not
only by the prevalence of den
tal caries, but also by our emo
tional and nervous instabil
ity shown by our use of tran
quilizers, sleeping pills, alco
hol, cigarettes, tea, coffee,
colas and chewing gum. This
deficiency results from our
increasing use of pasteurized
milk. The greater the calcium
deficiency, the more stronti
um 90 is retained in the bones.
However, as strontium 90 it
is slowly eliminated from the
body.
If, however, our environ
ment also contains free fluor
ine the strontium 90 unites
with the fluorine to form the
highly insoluble Sr 90F2. Be
ing insoluble, it can not De
eliminated from the body
the individual then will con
tinue to be exposed to the dan
gers of strontium 90.
The great danger of stron
tium 90 is its radio activity.
This activity of even a minute
particle of strontium 90 will
continue over a period of 50
years before it is completely
exhausted. The danger of this
activity is its ability to cause
mutations in living body cells.
It will especially cause muta
tions within the genes -of the
reproductive cells which de
termine our inheritance as
proper human beings. A mu
tation is a sudden change in
the growth of a cell. A crude
example of genetic mutation
would be an infant born with
I
out thumbs. But mutations
can occur also in other cells.
Hence in bones it becomes
bone cancer, etc.
We have all been exposed
to strontium 90. We will con
tinue to be exposed to it if
atomic tests are continued, or
if , waste products from the
atomic plants should escape.
It is now in our environment.
But we do not need to have
fluorine in our environment
when it is present it greatly
increases the danger from
atomic fallout.

Lauds Christie Home
To the Editor: I read the
article with interest in the
June 1 Mail Tribune con
cerning the Portland agencies
supported by the United Med
ford Crusade.
A few weeks ago I made a
trip with other Medford peo
ple to Portland and visited
a number of these agencies.
I was particularly impressed
by the work being carried on
at Christie Home for Girls
near Marlyhurst.
The Christie Home is oper
ated by the Sisters of the
Holy Names for the care of
young girls five years of age
and older. , All of these chil
dren are emotionally disturb
ed. They are the result of
broken homes, improper par
ental care and other circum
stances. All suffer mostly
from lack of love.
I appreciated the oppor
tunity to learn about this and
the other agencies. My work
and contribution to the Unit
ed Medford Crusade shall be
given cheerfully because I
know that 33 children from
Jackson county have been
given care at Christie Home
for Girls during the past three
years.

closed the other day that by

Special tape on which the

Just like that!

Why bother any more to
learn foreign languages?
Why not let the machine do
it all?
WELL, there would be prob

The jigger is described as
"about the size of several tall

You'd have to have a separ

France, Spain and Italy not
to mention Russia. If you
wanted to accomplish it pain
lessly (merely by the punch
of a button you'd have to car
ry some eight or nine of the
robots around with you.
Toting eight or nine ma
chines the size of a kitchen

over Western Europe would
get tiresome". Not only that,
but it would cost a whale of

If you want to know what
other peoples are thinking
if, to use a modern term, you
want to communicate you'd
better go ahead in the old

ISUPPPOSE the next step
along these modern lines
of communication will be a
dictating machine that will
transcribe what you say into

talk into one end of it and
your winged thoughts will

(The telephone company's
engineers are reported to be
working on a jigger of that
sort, and what the telephone

Tension Grows on Cyprus; Civil
War, Diplomatic Break, Seen
BY CHARLES M. McCANN
UPI Foreign News Analyst
The Cyprus situation is
building up toward an ex
plosion. A civil war between Greek
Turkish elements in the is
land, a diplo
matic break
between the
Greek and
Turkish gov
ernments and
a serious
weakening of
"the North At
lantic Treaty
flrtfan 1 w r 5 m
McCann are among the
possibilities.
British Prime Minister Har
old Macmillan is preparing,
soon after his return from
his present visit to the United
States, to announce a stop
gap plan to settle Cyprus's
status until a permanent solu
tion can be worked out.
It is known in advance that
the plan will be unacceptable
to Greece, which claims the
island, and the Greek Cypriot
Islanders who demand a pleb
iscite in which they would
vote for "union" with Greece.
Have Stated Demands
Nor is the Macmillan plan
likely to please Turkey, which
says that Greece must not
have Cyprus and that if there
is any change in its status it
must be partitioned between
its 400,000 Greek and 100,000
Turkish people.
A one-year truce which the
Greek Cypriot underground
organization declared in hope
that Britain would give up
the island was ended in March
with an outburst of bombings.
Since then the murder of
two British policemen by ter
rorists has resulted in the re
imposition of the death penal
ty which Britain suspended in
recognition of the truce. There
have been attacks on Greek
islanders by the underground
organization.
Rioting broke out between
Greeks and Turks after a
bomb damaged the Turkish
government consulate in Ni
cosia, the capital, Saturday
night.
Four Killed
Turks attacked Greeks.
Four Greeks were killed in
riots in Nicosia and the port
city of Larnaca Saturday
night and Sunday.
Greece announced Sunday
that it had demanded an emer
gency meeting of the council
of NATO in Paris to take up
the riot situation.
Philip Crosby
Seen Altar Bound
Las Vegas, Nev: (UPI)
Philip Crosby, son of crooner
Bing Crosby, squired a Trop
icana showgirl around the
glittering Las Vegas "strip"
Monday amid reports that an
other of the Crosby clan
might be altar bound.
Gossips were having a field
day, but Philip, whose twin,
Dennis, found his wife, Pat
Sheehan in the Tropicana
show, was having none of the
publicity game.
Neither was pretty, 20-year-old
Sandra Drummond, who
had been young Crosby's date
of late.
"There are definitely no
marriage plans," Miss Drum
mond said. "We've been hav
ing dinner and seeing shows
but we're just friends."
Philip, in turn, shrugged
and smiled when asked if
there was a chance he might
wed the showgirl, a contestant
in the Miss California contest
a year ago.
Observers of other persons

signed to lose itself in a jun

adapted in the
time of the
cruel war in
I n d o China).
The man the
u n i f o rm en
closes is in the
kind of hard
condition that,
Jos-pb Alsop m xnese son
er, later days, is almost an af
front to the rest of mankind.
He is not really "he", be
cause this "he" is a composite
of a dozen or so of these offi
cers of the French parachute
regiment with whom one has
talked. But let us speak of
"him" because "he" has had
much the same experiences
and has shown much the same
reaction as all the rest of
them.
He is, then, rather lower in
rank than an officer of com
parable age in the American
Army: for promotion in the
French professional officer
corps is a slow business at
best. In experience, on the
other hand, he is far lder
than most members of the
post-war generation in any
other army. He has in fact
been almost continuously at
war during his entire adult
life.
THE plastron of medals on
his chest, which he alwaje
wears unless he prefers the
single ribbon of the Legion of
Honor, tells his whole life
story. Six years in Indo
China, then three years in Al
geria if this is the story, it
may be thought admirable but
it is certainly not exceptional
His experience has been not
quite the same as the experi
ence of other French profes
sional officers who are not
parachuted. This is chiefly
because no French soldiers
who were not volunteers were
sent to Indo China; and the
parachute regiments, entirely
composed of volunteer sol
diers, consequently fought the
whole war there.. Hence there
is this difference between him
and other French officers of
his age, that he has probably
seen far more of war and that
his profession is much more
his whole life.
'
e
1JUT this difference between
him and his brother offi
cers is -far less significant than
the differences between him
and his owp people. Here the
gulf is wide and even rather
terrible. For France, nowa
days, is more and more a com
fortable country, living the
comfortable, materially pros
perous but inglorious life that
seems to be the western ideal
and aim.
He long since rejected this
ideal and aim. He has perhaps
done things that would shock
most moralists of the West
the parachutists did not drive
terrorism from Algiers by or
dinary police methods. But he
has his own aim and his own
ideal, which combined pro
duce somewhat unexpected re
sults. He has, for example, an un

Evangelos Averoff expressed
fear in an interview in Athens
Saturday that if serious dis
orders broke out in Cyprus,
Turkish rioters might attack
the Greek minorities in Istan

done after the Cyprus terror
ism started in 1955.

said, it will mark "the end of

whole life fighting. And he
has the most perfect contempt,
not only for the French poli
ticians who have never had
the courage to make either
war or peace, but also for the
prosperous bourgeois at home
and the rich colons here in .
Algeria.
In truth, he is an uprooted
man, in the sense that he has
largely rejected both the
values and the ideas of suc
cess of his own society. Yet
in another sense, a very deep
sense, he is still captive of his
society's values.
A N average Soviet officer
might have done all that
our parachutists have done
without ever asking for any
justification beyond those
reasons of State which ? are
not the almighty State's sole
business. In contrast, the par
achutist may have largely re
jected the material value of
western society, but he has
altogether rejected its human
itarian values. So he seeks
a justification, sometimes
rather desperately.
Herein, largely, lies the se
cret of his pagsionate dedica
tion to ie idea of "integrat
ing Algeria" to the rest of
France. Make of the wretched
Moslem masses full citizens of
a greated France. Give them
the saShe education, the same
opportunities, the same social
benefits as the rest of the
French people. Then there is
a reason, higher than any rea
son of State, to make war up
on them and even to torture
those who are suspected of

that he feels this need. And

who did abandon the Fourth

Spartan in the bosom of the
most Athenian of modern so

between the man of Sparta
and the men of Athens ever to
