J KS 1 K A JT 111 VVllllilVll A bit llVkJW V - J WW v have always associated the word "bankruptcy" with businesses, or with individuals who handle a lot of capital, and who somehow let their lia bilities pile up higher than their assets over too long a period of time. We were interested, therefore, to leam that by far the largest number of bankruptcies filed through legal channels are by working people wage earners who take on too heavy a burden of debt to carry from one payday to the next. USTES Snedecor, Portland, federal referee in bankruptcy, recently made a talk in Oregon Citv about the subject which was revealing. He forecast that 1958 will turn out to be a year of many bankruptcies being filed, and he expects 2,870 in Oregon before the year is out, a figure high among other states. This is not, he said, because business or in dustry are on the rocks. Paradoxically, it is for the opposite reason the economy is expanding. LIE explained it this way: During a period of expansion, such as the nation has experienced over the past few years, installment credit mounts. The total grew more than five times from 1941 to 1957 from $6, 085,000,000 to $33,133,000,000. This means that home payments, auto pay ments, and payments on furniture, furnishings, appliances and so on, are gobbling up a far great er proportion of the salaries of wage earners. Then, when a seasonal setback comes along or a "recession" such as that which hit the nation during the past year, and Oregon harder than . most states the wage earner is the one who gets caught. Then, rather than submit to excessive garn ishment of his paycheck, which might not allow him and his family enough to live on, he files for bankruptcy. CNEDECOR says it results from inequitable laws. He says, for instance, that bankruptcy laws exempt a man's home and automobile from collection by creditors, but that they do nothing to protect his livelihood. The report on the talk in the Oregon City paper added : "Furthermore, the. creditors themselves are hurt. Because when a man is forced into bankruptcy, every one suffers and nobody gets his fair share of assets. On the other hand, if a man's wages were protected, more times than not the debtor tries to pay off and will if he can. But once he has been forced into bankruptcy, then everything goes." He suggested that Oregon follow the lead of other states, and Tut a limit on the amount of a man's salary that can be attached. He suggested 20 per cent. To quote again : "Two examples were cited. In Pennsylvania there is a limit, and last year it had only 694 bankruptcies filed. Texas, another state with a limitation, had 341 filed. In giant New York state, with many times the population of Oregon, 2,962 people filed for bankrupt cy just slightly more than Oregon. New York has a limitation on attachments too. On the other hand, California, like Oregon, has no limitation. Last year it had 15,000 bankruptcies filed." WE found the report rrroof intovocf Tint a new slant on who files the most bankruptcies, and why, but also because it pointed to a defi ciency in Oregon law, where a change could turn out to be of great benefit to a great many people. If he is right and he is certainly in a posi tion to know the individual wage earner would receive far greater protection, and creditors, too, would have a better chance of getting their mon ey far better than by garnishing a working man's salary to a point where he can't support his family and is forced to seek the unsatisfactory solution of bankruptcy. ' E. A. Cars and Grades In quite a number of high schools in the north west, surveys have shown a high degree of cor elation between grade averages and automobile ownership. The figures have varied, but have shown a remarkable similarity in pattern. At South Salem High school, for instance, of the 594 junior and senior students owning cars, 7 per cent are A-average students; 19 per cent are B students; 31 per cent are C students and 44 per cent are D students. DROKEN down into boys only, or girls only, or junior class only, or senior class only, the re sults are, jf not identical, directly similar. Without a more detailed and complete sur vey, it is impossible to assess the real significance of these figures if any. For instance, the survey didn't show how non-car-owning students com pared in the grade breakdown. And even if the car-owners have a comparably greater proportion of poor students, one cannot say if it is cause or effect. But the surveys are certainly suggestive that autombiles and good grades don't go together (on the average) whatever the cause. DLANS for a similar survey at Medford High school have been discussed, and it may well be made within the next few months, according to Principal Lester Harris It will also be interesting, although pos sibly inconclusive. There are many ramifications of the problem, including the costs of car pur chase and upkeep, the time consumed by activities which only automobiles make possible, and so on. There are some who are using such statistics to support a demand that 18 be made the legal minimum driving age, but we can't go along with that yet until further facts are in. E. A.

IF YA LIKE PICTURES. Washington Report By William S. White ROMANTIC LIBERALS Washington-In the Demo cratic party there are profes sional, or romantic, liberals and there are plain, or working, lib berals. The r o mantic D e mocratic liberals re spond to new and "modern" faces with ec static h i g h- ttr;iiin. c u:t.; minnpnnpss the newer the face the glad der the esctasy. The working Democratic liberals have mostlv a common view on is- . - sues with their more enthusi astic colleagues. The preat difference is that the working liberals are, first 01 all, simply .Democrats. 10 them, the word "liberal" qualifies but does not sup plant the operative word "Democrat." In short, they like their tjartv to win elec tions. These are what might be called the Harry Truman; liberals. But the romantic Demo cratic liberals have aims so much more diffuse and pos sibly so much more elevated as to be difficult to define. Thev will have none of the crude bonds of party; they wish to soar wiio ana iree above all that is common place in politics. 9 W 9 THESE gentlemen and la dies are now consider ably worrying the more "reg ular" liberal Democrats and sorely worrying all purely or ganizational Democrats of whatever hue. For these pro fessional liberals are rushing into headlong embrace more in private than in public, it is true of the image of the Republican Governor-elect of New York, Nelson Rockefel ler, as the properly inevitable President for 1960. This is being done before Mr. Rockefeller has had a chance to write a line on the first page of his gubernatorial record; even before he has taken his inaugural vows. All this is not welcome news to the 1960 Demoncrat is Presidential nominee, who ever he may turn out to be and however liberal, for that matter he may turn out to be. For ostensible Democrats are making very early, and very emotional, commitments to Mr. Rockefeller. And by this they are necessarily weaken ing the prospective Demo cratic position for 1960. There is, in fact, a strong paraUel between this "I like Nelson " movement among the romantic liberal Demo crats and another movement among the same kind of group in 1948. Then, some of these professional Democratic lib erals including a few who were at least supposed to be close to the Truman Adminis tration began an earnest pursuit of a curious theory. This was that President Tru man ought to step aside and more or less force a "new face," Dwight Eisenhower, to take over the Presidential nomination. MR. TRUMAN, who is not generally thought to be too conservative but has never theless never quite hidden his distaste for professional lib erals, was of course insen sitively unwilling to oblige. It was then supposed by the dis appointed professional liber als that General Eisenhower was the only authentic and fully respectable liberal in sight. It is commonly forgotten now; but the chant "I like Ike" arose in this quarter even before it arose among any considerable number of Menace Republicans. It started be fore Mr. Eisenhower had ever served a day in elective of fice. It started at a time when very little that was factual as distinguished from vaguely impressionistic was known about his public views. Perhaps it is objective to say that the Ensenhower Ad' ministration has not been a notable triumph for the lib erals, whatever else it has or lias not been. And most of the professional liberals who had cried out in his behalf in 1948 before long were crying out against his Administra tion with more vehemence, actually, than those Demo crats who had fought him all along. NOW, it may well eventu ate, to the contrary this time, that Nelson Rockefeller will be very modest of what the romantic liberals really want. This, however, is not inevitable and not even highly probable. What is cer tain, however, is that a simi lar movement of spiritual se cession by professional liber als weakened the Truman Ad ministration and contributed to what was possibly fated anyhow Operation Throw-The-Democrats-Out in 1952. It does not now seem that all this really served the in terests of any kind of liberal Democrat. The Republicans, even those not desperate to have Mr. RockefeUer as their 1960 nominee, are watching current professional liberal developments with pleased interest. This is perhaps the only one watery ray discern ible to them in this, their gloomy November. In defeat they are practical men, even though they do sometimes seem determined to lose any victory once gain ed. But the romantic Demo cratic liberals sometimes seem inconsolable only in some of their victories and exultant only in some of their defeats. (Copyright. 1958, by United Features Syndi cate, Inc.)

Keeean Townsend, President, Allied Veterans' Council of Jackson County., Granr-in-Aid Fund Increases In 86th Congress By Congressional Quarterly Washington -Two develop ments appear certain - in a generally uncertain future - when the 86th Congress con venes seven weeks hence. -President Eisenhower will In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS A University of California physicist reports that a couple of years hence the U.S. may attempt to blast a new harbor in Ajaska, using NUCLEAR explosives. The attempt, he adds, maye be made as early as two years from now. The U.C. scientist (his name is Gerald Johnson) says a site has been selected at Camp Thompson, north of the Ber ing Strait. He says the shale rock at the location chosen for the experiment could be moved by nuclear explosives at a tenth the cost of present day techniques. YOU may ask: Tin 'NF.F.T) a narhnr away lip in the Arctic north of the Bering Strait? That isn't the point. The point is that if we do need one, or should in the fu ture need one, we could pro vide it relatively quickly and relatively inexpensive by us ing nuclear explosives. rpHAT brings up something -- else. Something fantastic. Something as yet mysteri ous, to be spoken of in whis pers OPERATION PLOW SHARE. WHAT is Operation Plow ' sharp? It is still top drawer secret, but here are some hints that have been permitted to leak out: As everyone knows, we have been carrying on an un disclosed number of UNDER GROUND blasts in Nevada. This fall, several of these ex plosions of MUCH GREATER POWER THAN EVER BE FORE have been set off. About all that has been giv en out about them is the vague and guarded statement that scientists have obtained from them information showing that such explosions can be made to do PEACEFUL work. U.S. industry particular ly the oil segment of industry is described as "excited" by O p e r a t ion Plowshare's prospects. It is added that hardly a week passes .when the AEC (Atomic Energy Commission) doesn't receive communications from - com panies interested in putting atomic blasting material to work. ALL this raises problems x These problems can be guessed at from this extract from a recent Washington dis patch: "Because they (these under ground explosion techniques) can also be used in WEAPONS development, this country must prove to the world that Project Plowshare is honest ly dedicated to peace . . , This was made plainly skep tical of Plowshare's motives. "To overcome the world's skepticism, this country is ready, subject to congressional approval, to make Plowshare materials and services avail able to other countries for construction work or the tap ping of buried resources such as otherwise unobtainable oil and minerals." THIS much, at least, we must keep clear and straight in our minds: . We are standing at the threshhold of a world that is fabulously newer and poten tially more wonderful than the new world that was dis covered by Columbus. Forces greater than were ever dreamed of by man are being placed in man's hands. In the use of these forces, man faces a choice. He can use them for good. He can use them for evil. Which shall it be? That brings up a thought that has long fascinated me. It is this: In the world of the past, Stops Constipation Due to "Aging Colon'" New laxative discovery re-creates 3 essentials for normal As you grow older, the internal mus cles of your colon wall also age, lose the strength that propels waste from the body. Stagnant bowel contents be come so dry and shrunken that they fail to stimulate the urge to purge. Relief, doctors say, lies in a new laxative principle. Old-style bulks and moisteners may create gas, take 3 or 4 days for relief. Old-style salts and drugs cramp and gripe the entire system. Of all laxatives, only new Colonaid gives you its special 3-way relief that works only on the lower colon (area of constipation). Foreseen renew and amplify his propo sals for checking the growth of Federal grants-in-aid to state and local governments. -Congress, for its' part, will ignore the proposals. Most probably it will march in the opposite direction. The President's concern over the trend toward more and larger grant programs was voiced repeatedly in 1958 both in his budget recommen dations and in his reaction to legislation approved by Con gress. Faced with a deficit of $12 billion this year and sev eral billion next year, he can show no less concern in 1959. Congress, on the other hand, will reflect the results of the Nov. 4 election. Not only did Democrats win 2-to-l majori ties in House and Senate; they extended their control of state governments. Come January, Democrats will occupy the Governor's mansion and con trol both houses of the state legislatures in 22 states, Re publicans in only four states. Support at State Level This means that Democrats in Congress, who have always looked with greater favor than Republicans on grants-in-aid, will be powerfully re inforced at the state level, at a time when the states are scraping the tax barrel to meet the rising cost of public services. Federal grants to state and local governments for such programs as highway and hos pital construction, public as sistance, urban renewal, and unemployment compensation climbed from $2.8 billion in fiscal 1953 to $4.1 biUion in fiscal 1957. The total this year is expected to reach $6 billion Last January the President, on the advice of the Joint Federal-State Action commit tee, asked Congress to trans fer two small grant programs to the states, along with a por tion of the revenues from the 10 per cent Federal excise tax on local telephone service. He also asked the legislators to modify the hospital, public assistance, school and urban renewal programs in a fash ion that would have reduced Federal outlays. Opposite Reaction Congress not only didn't comply, it liberalized grant formulas for emergency school aid and public assist ance, added $400 billion to the highway program, and launched a new aid-to-education program with about $500 million for grants. The legis lators also approved bills which the President vetoed, increasing Federal aid to air ports and establishing a loan-and-grant program for area redevelopment. These two bills are almost certain to be repassed in 1959 in a form more generous than desired by the President. In similar fashion, Congress may be expected to approve an omnibus housing bill no less costly than the one that, for the lack of six votes, failed to pass the House in August. That measure authorized $300 million a year for six years for the urban renewal pro gram, in which the Federal government puts up $2 for every $2 invested at the local level. Demands for Federal grants and loans for school construc tion are assured of sympathe tic attention from most of the non-Southern Democrats in the 86th Congress. An expand ed program of - low-interest Federal loans to cities for such public facilities as wa terworks, streets and play grounds may win substantial support if interest rates con tinue to rise. AU things considered, the President's forthcoming plea to reverse the rising tide of grants-in-aid has about the same chance of being heeded as Canute's admonition to the seas. the techniques of DISAGREE MENT have been more highly perfected than the techniques of AGREEMENT. I think we are going to have to make a change. We must begin to see to it that the techniques of agree ment get more attention than the techniques of disagree ment. regularity.

Matter of Fact HUSSEIN FOREVER Amman, Jordan Events in this extraordinary country have a way of resembling epi- SOdes in one of the old serial movies say "The Perils of Pauline"-with ,the heroine, or in this case tne hero, al ways emerg ing from di rect danger in loi-pn aisop a giow or tri umph at the clase of each episode. The curious fact remains. however, that even such an unreal piece of melodrama as young King Hussein's es cape from the attacking Syrian MIG fighters can also be fuU of genuine political significance. Consider, for ex ample, just one' incident in this particular installment of the Jordanan serial. After the young King's plane had taken off, the tough, astute Prime Minister, Samir Rifai, and several other leaders of the government re turned to the Jordanian gov ernment office building for breakfast and a business talk. They had no particular fear of a Syrian attack on the King's plane. But just to be sure that all went well, one of those present turned on the radio communicator with the Amman airfield tower, which is installed in the gov ernment offices because of the King's passionate interest in aviation. AFTER the first growl of Ktatir- trip pftmmnniftitftr quickly began to pour out the argument between King Hus sein's pilot and the Damascus control tower. Then, quite suddenly, there was silence (because the pilot, Wing Com mander Dalsleish. observed radio silence from the moment of the first pass by the Syrian MIGSs.) The breakfasters were tilled with conserna tion, thinking the King had been shot down. They at once telephoned the news' to the Jordanian Chief of Staff, Ho- bis Majjali, at the Arab Leg ion camp at Zerqa. There the telephone opera tor must have listened in, or in some other way the news that the Syrians bad shot down King Hussien spread like wildfire through the camp. By a kind of instan taneous combustion, over the protests of their officers, huge majority of the Arab Legion rank and file immedi ately marched off on the road to the north, with the actual intention of - invading Syria without any further delays or formalities. rpHE troops would not be - quieted or reassured, un til great numbers of them had been taken in a long proces sion of Army trucks to cheer the King at the palace after his almost miraculous safe re turn. Altogether, it would be hard to imagine a more curi ous or more convincing dem onstration of an army's loyal ty and affection. And the tim ing and everything else proved very clearly that the demonstration was in the rare, truly spontaneous category. Anyone with the slightest experience of Arab politics must "see the far-reaching sig nificance of this demonstra tion. In every Arab state, the Army is the dominant politi cal factor. In Iraq, for in stance, the Army was disloyal, and a seemingly all-powerful government was bloodily, sub- verted. But in Jordan, as one by-product of the strange epi sode of the King's escape from the Syrian MIGs, the most convincing proof has' been given of the loyalty of the Army rank and file. rpHIS Js one reason why it is now necessary to correct a previous report in this space, concerning the alarm felt in Counsel With . . .. Mr. Insurance Fred Brennan Fred Brennan Or Call Mr. Friendly Bill Fish Phone SP 3-7343 MEDFORD INSURANCE AGENCY 27 NORTH HOLLY ST. Joseph Alsep Washington about King Hue- sem s plan to take a vacation. The official Washinetonian alarm was real enough, but it can now be categoriacUy stat ed that the alarm was quits groundless. Young King Hus sein emphatically was not tak ing a vacation with the ex pectation that he would not return to rule in Jordan. Futh ermore, the most cynical for eign observers and the Jor danians most hostile to King Hussein's government agree that nothing would have hap pened during the King's ab sence to prevent his return. In fact, this reporter has had a sharp lesson, concerning the truth of the old rule of the reporter's trade that you must always go and have a look yourself. Even a brief look at Jordan has been enough to provide all sorts of bits of positive evi dence, aU tending to prove that King Hussein's govern ment is now as stable as any government can be in this in herently unstable country. For example, there were the huge street crowds shouting their huzzas for the King and bel lowing "Down with Gamal Abdel Nasser" for good meas ure. VOU can argue that this part of the demonstration after the King's return was not al together spontaneous or sin cere. No one can disprove this argument, which is made by some observers here. But 14 months ago, all the police and all the money in the world would have been unable to get the street crowds of Amman to cheer Hussein and curse Nasser. That fact is unargu able, and it means that a most important change has occur red here. Besides the Arab Legion's loyalty to Hussein, there seem to be two other major factors behind this change. One of these factors is quite .simply the way the incomparably brave young King has f inaUy "got through" to his people. Even the enemies of his gov ernment admire his courage and determination. No on could help but do so. The Arabs are also great believer ' in luck. There is even a single word in Arabic "mantou!, which means a lucky man, with whom it is wise to be on good terms and unwise to op pose. Rather naturally, in view of recent history, Hus sein is thought to be such a man. Just as they believe in luck, the Arabs are also great bandwagon-watchers and bandwagon-jumpers. This too has a bearing here, because the oth er factor in the improvement of Hussein's position is the growing conviction that the once resistless bandwagon of Egypt's Nasser has lost much of its momentum. But this . check of the Nasser bandwag on is a separate and a major subject.
