One Year Of Sputniks
A year after Sputnik I ascended on Oct. 4,
1957, outer space can hardly be said to be over
loaded with earth satellites. Seven in all have
been orbited, three by the Russians, four by the
United States. Still aloft are one of the Russian,
three of the American spinners through space.
Sputnik I weighed 184 pounds. It was follow
ed within a month by Sputnik II, carrying a dog,
Laika, which seems to have stayed alive for about
a week. The first Sputnik was burned up by fric
tion after three months, but on May 15, 1958 the
Russians put into orbit their impressive Sputnik
III, weighing almost iy tons. It has completed
between 1,900 and 2,000"orbits around the Earth.
We tried to orbit a small Vanguard satellite
in December 1957 without success. Finally, on the
last day of January 1958 the Army succeeded
with the 31-pound Explorer I. Explorer II, laun
ched March 5, failed to orbit, but the Navy came
through with its tiny Vanguard on March 17. It
may be only a "grapefruit," but it is expected to
last longer than its predecessors and immediate
successors.
On March 26 came Explorer III, and on July
26 Explorer IV, a 38-pound affair. It circles the
Earth in a little less than two hours. Explorer V,
launched Aug. 24, repeated Explorer II's failure.
The Navy has failed with larger Vanguards.
00 W has a year of Sputniks affected our lives
in this country?
For one thing, Congress raised the defense
budget $6 billion, nearly $1 billion more than
President Eisenhower asked. It also created a
civilian space agency and sanctioned exchange
of atomic inf ormation with Great Britain.
Perhaps more important, the impact of Sput
niks helped to persuade Congress to adopt the Na-
tional Defense Education Act oi iyts, tne urst
general aid-to-education
Uniquely, it singles out
eign languages, also mathematics arid science,
for special consideration. Surveys show that as
many as 50 high schools are teaching Russian
this fall, as against 18 last year. .
THE first U. S. shot at the moon failed on Aug.
x 17, when our rocket designed to orbit the
Earth's only non-man made satellite exploded 10
miles up. The Russians are believed to have fail
ed at least three times at a moonshot. We may
make another tiy on Columbus Day, the Russians
36 hours or so earlier.
These shots at the moon have little strategic
value for the uresent. even if successful. And
that may be true also of the Earth satellites. More
important strategically are the Intercontinental
Ballistic Missile programs. t
In these Russia is supposed to be ahead, but
our defense people were cheered when an ICBM
Atlas missile found its target 3,000 miles away
on Sept. 14 third such bull's-eye in four tries.
And on Sept. 25 a Bomarc missile again intercep
ted and destroyed some distance away another
missile headed for our coast.
Also important strategically are atomic sub
marines, in these days when atomic missiles can
be fired from under water. We have five atomic
submarines in commission, three more launched,
14 more under construction, 11 more authorized.
Though the Soviet Union nutnumbers us in to
tal submarines by five to one, it has announced
nothing like the achievement this summer of the
"Nautilus" and "Skate" in cruising thousands of
miles under the Arctic icecap and beyond with
out surfacing. E.R.R.
City Finances
The larger an American city, the more it is
apt to spend per capita on its police force. Aver
age expenditures for police protection run $15
$17 per inhabitant in the 18 U. S. cities of over
half a million population, only $10-$12 in the 98
from 100,000 to 500,000.
The typical city of from 25,000 to 100,000
population spends only a little over $9 per inhab
itant per year on its police force. And for cities
of less than 25,000 the average falls belows $7.
On the other hand, the average cost of fire
protection varies little by size of city, around $9
per capita, until you get down to the veiy small
ones. Streets cost per capita pretty much the
same, too, to pave and re-pave regardless of size
of city. And that's apt to be true of "sanitation"
sewers, sewage disposal, street cleaning, trash
collection.
These four items police, fire department,
streets, sanitation account for almost half of
what the typical U. S. city spends eveiy year,
according to recent figures published by the Cen
sus Bureau.
IXHEN it comes to revenue, the largest single
TT source in almost every city, large or small,
is the general property tax, chiefly of course on
real estate. For U. S. cities as a whole the prop
erty tax last year accounted for a little more than
half of all revenue.
Another large source of income for most cities
20 per cent as a national average is revenue
turned over by the state government, to a lesser
extent by the federal government, in some cases
by other local governments. Then a substantial
total comes from various licenses, fees, assess
ments, charges, etc., each of which may be small
by itself.
However the separate expenditures and rev
enue percentages may vaiy from one city to an
other, two things are true of practically all cities:
They spend more every year and their citizens
complain of being overtaxed. E.R.R."

Matter of JFercf bv
SHALL WE RETREAT
AGAIN
Tokyo-Is it really neces
sary for the United States to
run the grave risks involved
in defending
the wretched
little offshore
islands? The
q u e s t i on is
bound to pre
occupy any
reporter on
his way home
from a first
hand look at
4osPb aisop Quemoy and
the crisis in the Taiwan
Strait.
Judging . by the reports
from home, anyone who
wants to answer the above
question at all sensibly must
begin by pointing out that he
is not answering certain
other questions.
First, there is the question
whether the Sino-American
commitment on the offshore
islands was a wise commit
ment to make. The answer
happens to be that it was an
incredibly foolish commit
ment, directly resulting ' om
the Madison Avenue fakery
of the early Eisenhower per
iod of foreign policy.
TUT the question itself is
" now irrelevant. You
would not refuse to pay the
doctor because your children
ought never to have been ex
posed to " typhoid fever by
their nurse. You would pay
the doctor now and think
about firing the nurse later.
By the same token, the Sino
American commitment on
the offshore islands cannot be
made to disappear by wails
that it was all the fault of John
Foster Dulles. It is woolly
minded twaddle to argue that
the price of not honoring the
commitment will be reduced
because the commitment
should not have been made.
Again, there is the question
whether the United States
has really made a binding
commitment to defend the
offshore islands. The answer
happens to be that a power
ful legal mind, X-raying the
various American official
statements on the subject,
may well find the usual pas
sages of Sullivan and Cromwell-size
small print on the
back of the contract.
BUT the answer, in this case
is irrplpvant. Tn thp pvps
of Asia, in the eyes of peip
ing, in the eyes of Moscow,
the American government
stands committed. Having no
training at ' Sullivan and
Cromwell, our friends in Asia
and our Communist enemies
do not read the fine print.
The contest . for the islands
was made into a final and
decisive test of American will
and strength by the big, bold
talk the leaders of the Amer
ican government so freely in
dulged in when the contest
began some months ago.
This grim, inescapable fact
makes lit necessary to re
phrase question number one,
whether the U. S. really must
run the risk of defending the
wretched little offshore is
lands. The real question is
whether the United States
can safely shirk or fail this
kind of test of American will
and strength.
The consequences of shirk
ing or failure suggest the an
swer. Even if shirking is the
American government's final
choice, it is first of all very
doubtful whether Chiang Kai
shek can be forced to retreat
from the islands. He is much
more likely to resort to des
perate measures that will
widen the war.s By our gov
ernment's own doing, the
choice is partly Chiang's to
make.
IF CHIANG retreats under
severe American pressure,
however, this reporter does
not believe that Formosa will
be instantly lost to Commu
nism. By Asian standards,
the Formosans are quite ex-
Joseph Alsop
ceptionally well off. They
will not choose Communism
unless they have no other
choice. But they will be left
with no other choice in the
end, because of the other pre
dictable consequences of an
American backdown at this
juncture.
1 Let the American govern
ment be proven a mere pack
of empty braggarts, easy
bluffers and false friends in
a pinch, in this test of the
American leaders' own mak
ing. Then every remaining
Western position in Asia will
soon be lost or undermined,
as the Western positions in
the Middle East have been
lost or undermined already.
Then every Western friend in
Asia will soon change sides or
be destroyed, as has already
happened with the West's
friends in the Middle East.
This process in Asia, which
win be rapid, will doom For
mosa in the end. And it will
rot just doom Formosa, but
also the American bases in
Japan and the Philippines,
the struggling government in
South Vietnam, the courag
eous Burmese, and every
thing else that is worth sav
ing in the area.
.
NOR will it' end there.
Those who cry out against
defending the offshore islands
with conventional weapons
had better remember that the
vastly more exposed and im
portant position at Berlin can
only be defended wijh nu
clear weapons. They had bet
ter consider that they are ask
ing, they are even actively in
viting another blockade of
Berlin and further Commu
nist attacks, direct or indi
rect, on every vulnerable po
sition that now depends on
the Moscow-Peiping estimate
of America's strength of arm
and will.
This is perhaps the most
terrible aspect of the whole
ugly situation. The Soviet
probing in the Middle East
only began after President
Eisenhower had so strangely
gone to Geneva to swear
his dedication to peace at any
price. The test on the off
shore islands only began
after the last test in the Mid
dle East had shown .the total
emptiness of the big talk of
the Eisenhower'Doctrine. Can
any sane man 'suppose that
failure of the present test
will not lead on to further
tests of a far more difficult
nature?
All this does not mean that
there is no need to press for
more sensible military dispo
sition in the Formosa Strait
after the present test has been
won. But, as suggested above,
the fact that the existing mili
tary dispositions are not sen
sible does not alter or dimin
ish the decisive significance
of the test of our strength and
will. If we fail the test the
failure will be applauded as
Munich was applauded, but it

Kadar Apparently in
In Hungary; Experts
By RUSSELL JONES
UPI Correspondent
Vienna - (UPD Hungarian
Communist boss Janos Kadar,
the man who called in So
viet tanks to crush the 1956
revolution, is involved in a
fight for his political - and
perhaps his actual - life.
Iron Curtain experts here
believe Kadar is under an
attack by a group led by Pre
mier Ferenc Nuennich, and
may well be purged within
the next few months.
While many factors enter
into the battle, the experts
cite these points of Kadar's
vulnerability:
-More than any other cur
rent leader, Kadar was identi
fied with the revolutionary
government of Imre Nagy,
and can be attacked for many
of the "crimes" for which
Nagy was executed.
-Conversely, he was the
tool used by the Soviets to
overthrow the Nagy govern
ment and, as such, is the
focus of the people's hatred.
-While trying to end the
revolution and the general
strike which followed it,
Kadar made many, public
promises which now 'are em
barrassing to the party and
government.

Washington Report
By William
HELP FROM HARRY-
Washington-The Eisenhower
administration now appears
likely to emerge in good order
from the For
mosa vcri sis
and to be able
to protect
true Ameri
can interests
there without
either war or
a diplomatic
rupture with
in the West-
William s white em alliance.
If, happily, this is indeed
the outcome, the President
will have well earned the
praise of reasonable and re
sponsible men "everywhere.
But it is time somebody said
what the Administration itself
is never likely to say. This is
that a great contribution to
this prospective Eisenhower
triumph has been made by
a man named Harry S. Tru
man.
Mr. Truman is held in such
low esteem by the Eisenhower
Administration that he has
never been invited to the
White , House even for rou
tinely social reasons. Never
theless, he has been a rock
like ally to Mr. Eisenhower
in the Formosa troubles as
he has been earlier when we
risked war in the. Middle East
to rescue Lebanon.
1JR. Truman's backing of
XTX Mr. Eisenhower in the
Formosa Strait has been with
out ifs, ands or buts. The tem
tation to do otherwise would
have been great. For the Tru
man Administration was be
labored by the Republicans
over this same issue China
policy as no other admin
istration has ever been bela
bored on any question beyond
our shoreline.
All the same, when Presi
dent Eisenhower shoved in
his stack of chips over For
mosa, the spry, elderly man
now living in Independence,
Mo., came forward to stand
at his elbow. And Mr. Tru
man stands there still, though
partisan Democratic interests
would have been better served
by howling at the White
House. A few supposedly less
"partisan" Democrats have, in
fact, done so.
And Mr. Truman has done
will surely be paid for as
Munich was paid for.
(1958 New York Herald
Tribune Inc.)
ing the revolution, Kadar's
whole record lays him open
to the charge of "revisionism,"
currently the worst heresy in
the Communist ' book.- Al
though the expression was
not then used, it was for just
this crime that he Was im
prisoned and tortured by the
Stalinists in 1950.
-Aside from G y o r g y
Lukacs, now in obscurity,
Kadar is the last surviving
founder of the Hungarian
Workers Socialist Party, set
up by Nagy when the old
Communist Party collapsed
under the impact of the revo
lution. Of the other founders,
Nagy was executed, Ferenc
Donath sentenced to. 12 years
and Geza Losonczi died while
awaiting trial.
The experts believe the
battle between Kadar and
Muennich was joined when
the latter forced the trial and
execution of Nagy and his
colleagues. They say that the
trial opened last Jan. 28, with
Kadar resigning from the pre
miership in protest the next
day.
Kadar Against Trial
Kadar, they say, was against
the trial as both unjust -and
unnecessary, and - as events
proved correct - likely to re
vive memories both in Hun
gary and the rest of the world.
S. White
more than refuse to be a bit
ter second guesser. He has
used his still - immense weight
within the Democratic party
to mute criticism from others,
even including his much-loved
Secretary of State, Dean
Acheson. -.
.
THERE is hardly the slight
est doubt that a critical
Truman attitude toward the
Eisenhower Administration
would have all but paralyzed
it; the going has been hard
enough even with the former
President's help.
All this has been an act of
bigness. But to those who real
ly know him this was the en
tirely predictable course of
Harry S.'Truman. For the odd
truth is that Mr. Truman is
two men all at -once: he is
on many issues the very mod
el of the "give 'em hell" par
tisan ready to pick up any
handy club and apply it with
happy vigor to any Republi
can skull. Bjut thus he will act
only when the issues are do
mestic. In such fields no
"good" Republican ever lived,
or ever could. There will be
no errors here to sentimental
ize Mr,. Truman or his admin
istration; he and it had faults,
and plenty of them.
But in the great foreign
matters, upon which as a na
tion we might live or die, this
was one of the most responsi
ble and least partisan Presi
dents in our history. This cor
respondent asserts as much
not only on his own observa
tion but also on the authority
of a most-elevated Washing
ton veteran, Speaker of the
House Sam Rayburn.
TN 45 years in the House
Rayburn has known many
Presidents and has been
extremely close to some. He
is a man with a sense of fair
ness to history and has an ab
solutely impartial way of
viewing even his friends when
he thinks in historical terms.
And the speaker once told
me that of all the Presidents
he had known only one was
totally indifferent to partisan
gain or loss in foreign policy.
This was Mr. Truman.
"The first time the congres
sional 'leaders were called
to the White House after Har
ry became President," Ray
burn recalled with a slow
smile, "was on a foreign cri
sis. .
"Harry outlined what he
proposed to do. We all listen
ed. Then Harry asked if any
body had any questions.
Somebody (from the Congres
sional group) asked him what
the domestic political reper
cussions would be what the
politics of it would be. Harry
turned on him and said: 'Let's
get one thing straight. I never
want to hear that damn word
'politics' mentioned here again
when we are discussing a
thing like this.'
"And," Rayburn went on,
"never was it mentioned
again, in my hearing at least,
in any of the many other such
foreign policy meetings be
tween the President and the
Congressional leadership."

' To the Editor: . I fail to
understand what type of gov

he wouldn't be a Republican
governor and I can assure you
that 'he lacks the qualifica
tions to be a Democratic one.
Although the Republican
candidate doesn't want to
wear the elephant's coat or
tail in 1958, my memory is
not so short that I have for
gotten his all out support for
the ultra - conservative ex
GOP polilicos, Guy Cordon
and Doug McKay.
It also seems strange that
while the ' GOP candidate
wants a divorce from his
party, the giant artillery of
the GOP,; Richard Nixon and
Ezra Taft Berison, are stump
ing Oregon to elect an alleged
Republican governor.
The secretary of state and
GOP candidate has expressed
the desire that if elected he
would want to become some
type . Aof neutral governor.
What does this mean? In his
appointments as secretary of
state, I can't seem to remem
ber any Democratic appoint
ments only Republicans. I
presume that all of these ap
pointees were neutral and bi

Fairness and Honesty
To the Editor: A matter of
utmost importance to .all peo
ple who ' believe in fairness
and honesty' in our appeal
courts is before us today.
Here in Medford resides a
man 61 years of age who is
so completely incapable of
supporting himself that his
own doctor lias" warned him
not ' to -walk outside or his
next attack may be his last,
This man applied for social
security, with his doctor's
statement, and witnesses, and
was denied. On what grounds?
None! The referee in this case
completely ignored the doc
tor and witnesses and set
forth his own diagnosis and
opinion. An appeal was made
to the council in Washington,
D.C., and denied with the ex
planation the referee's de
cision was automatically con
sidered just, without the mat
ter even being investigated!
Is this a typical example of
an appeal council's considera
tion? I surely hope not. Yet
they never even bothered to
check the referee's decision.
What is this council supposed
to be for, if not to check
referee's statements that have
been refuted by a medical
man's own words.
Something should be done!

problem not for just a hand

to appoint a man for to be a
candidate for Sheriff of Jack

to be, one of the committee
men. .
It should be for all the' vo

have a say. Also it's unf au
to my way of thinking. Why
should Mr. Sheehan be ap

Koch? They both lost in the
primary election.
I say give him a chance
also.
Think hard, all you kind
people and voters, about this.
Koch was out to protect all
the citizens and their rights
and not for just a name.
When Mr. Sheehan lost in
the primary he than signed
up' to run for mayor of Rogue '
River, now he is running for
sheriff, that which now he
would have to resign from
mayor and go to a bigger
name. That's that way I see
it. ' ' '

would rather have Mr. Walsh
than Sheehan. As for me
when I go to vote I am go
ing to vote for a man that has
the know-how and experience
and who can get Jackson
county in right path of good
government and clean poli
tics. That is Mr. Koch for me.
How many more of yoa feel
the same as I do? It is high
time to start thinking and
doing something about it, not
when it's too late, and put a
man in the office who is for us
honestly, and ' who is not a
scared of these political at
torneys. If you do not be
lieve me, ask him.
Well what do you say. Do
you want a handful of peo
ple to pick out for you who
to vote for and run your
lives, or forget . we are Am
erican Citizens and have our
rights.
This is no personal reflec
tion on anyone, I just feel
that it is unfair, as I am just
one of the many labor men
that cannot go to these meet
ings. Julius E. Davis,
