In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
Suppose we talk today
about STRONG MEN the oc
casion being that there's a new
one on the horizon. His name
is Ibrahim Abboud.' He joined
the Strong Man's Club only
Monday when he seized su
preme power in the Sudan
(which is located in mid-Africa)
in what the dispatches
describe in proper diplomatic
language as a "coup d'etat."
His best known buddies in
the exclusive organization he
has just blasted his way into
are Khrushchev, Tito and Nas
ser. It should be added that
these are PRESENT members.
Tht ex-members of the Strong
Man's Club are too numerous
. to be listed here.
lyHILE we're at it, we might
" as well get this coup
d'etat business straight. It's
French French being the
language of international di
plomacy. It s an ancient his
toric term so well estab
lished that Webster includes
it, defining it thus: "A sudden
decisive exercise of force
whereby the existing govern
ment is subverted; an unex
pected stroke of policy."
Its literal translation is
SUDDEN BLOW OF STATE.
If your inclination is to go
highbrow and talk about it at
the next coffee hour, you
should bone up a little before
tackling it. Don't say COOP
DE TAT; pronouncing the
TAT part as in tatting.
It's French, and French has
its own linguistic peculiarities.
If you want to be de rigeur,
you must say COO DE TAH.
If yoy yearn to be a diplomat,
you'll have to learn to say it
that way. Otherwise, you
won't pass the examination.
! mean a thfng to you. Here's a
clue: The capital of the Sudan
Is Khartoum. If you're a Kip
ling fan, you'll recall Kitch
ener of Khartoum.
- Lord Kitchener of Khar
toum made a lot of history.
He added the Sudan to the
British Empire, and was
greatly admired by Kipling.

Maybe SUDAN doesn't
WHO is this Ibrahim Ab
boud? He was unheard of until he
pulled his coup d'etat as was
Nasser, for that matter. But
he seems to know all the
rules. For example:
His first act as a Strong
Man was to SHUT DOWN
THE NEWSPAPERS. He took
the ban off two days later, but
he warned the papers not to
speculate on political news
and to print ONLY OFFI
CIALLY authorized an
nouncements. In other words
To tell the people only what
Ibrahim Abboud thinks the
people ought to be allowed to
know.
That establishes him as an
orthodox member of the
Strong Man's Club.
F
CONCLUSION:
Is he good?
Or is he bad?
I WOULDN'T know.
But history tells us quite
plainly that most of the trou
bles of ordinary mankind
since history was first record
ed have come about because'
of these strong men who
TAKE TOO MUCH POWER
INTO TOO FEW HANDS.

Misunderstanding Told
In Recording Claims
Portland - Virgil Heath,
bureau of land management
supervisor for Oregon, has re
ported some misunderstand
ing about the necessity of re
cording mining claims on
Oregon and California re
vested lands and Coos Bay
Wagon Road grant lands.
Heath said many mining
claim locators are forfeiting
their unpatented claims be
cause they are not complying
with the O and C Mining act
of April 8, 1948. This act op
ened the O and C and Coos
Bay Wagon Road grant lands
to mining claim locations, but
it required that a copy of the
notice of location must be fil
ed in the U.S. district land of
fice within 60 days after the
location is made. '
Heath pointed out that if
this requirement is not ob-

Heath also said that since
completion of an exchange of
national forest lands for
O and C lands on June 22,
1956, approximately 242,000
acres of former national for
est lands became O and C
lands. These lands are now
subject to the laws pertaining
to the O and C lands, includ
ing the O and C Mining act.
