Wake Up,
Two entirely separate items in the news last
week had a rather ironic significance.
The first was the Southern Pacific's announce
ment that its crack north-south train between
Portland and San Francisco, the Shasta Daylight,
would be decreased from once-a-day service to
three times a week during the winter months.
The other was a report from West Coast Air
lines on the immediate and enthusiastic passen
ger reception to the new F-27 Fairchild aircraft,
which was placed in service this fall.

"THEREBY hangs a tale of aggressive, progres-
sive, passenger-related modernization on one
hand, and stogy, money-hungry, hang-back-and-collect-the-dough

yHE airline, on the other hand, is young, vigor-
' ous, and aware of the fact that its ultimate
success lies, not in any monopoly situation, but
in competition with rails, automobiles, busses and
other airlines.
It isn't afraid to expend huge sums in new and
expensive equipment, like the F-27 turboprops.
It isn't afraid to advertise, to let the whole world
know what its service is, to brag-a little, politely,
that it is out to give its passengers the best pos
sible service, in the best and fastest and most
convenient equipment.
Wouldn't it.be interesting to see what would
happen if, through some wildly - improbable
stroke of fortune, the board of directors ot W est
Coast Airlines (or almost any other airline, for
that matter) suddenly, and for a period of one
year', were suddenly placed in charge of the SP?
DERHAPS all the retrenchments, the slashing
. of service, the ill-tempered rejections of criti
cism, the whining over the cost of equipment and
service, the complaints over lack of patronage,
the lack of aggressive promotion and courteous
attention to patrons, the battles in the courts and
before utilities commissioners to drop service
perhaps all these things would not be corrected
overnight.
But if 'those airlines directors became SP
directors, we would undoubtedly see a startling
change in the monolithic
idity of the high profitable railroad empire.
It would be refreshing,
fresh air replace hot air in the sanctum of the
railroad. We might even see some fast, modern,
comfortable and convenient rail equipment in
Southwestern Oregon.
But, shucks. Pinch us,

Legislature
After long and prodigious effort, a small
group of members of Congress, led by Oregon's
Sen. Richard L. Neuberger and California's Sen.
Thomas KucheL.this year were successful in ob
taining passage of a watered-down bill to make
it easier for states to write rules and regulations
limiting billboards on federal highways.
The bill certainly was a big step in the right
direction.
But it left the initiative up to the states, of
fering them the incentive of y2 of 1 per cent of
federal highway funds in addition to regular al
locations, if the states met the standards set up
in the federal law.
"THE time is fast approaching when Oregon's
legislature will be asked to pass an Oregon
law to take advantage of this.
It should do so, we strongly feel, with decis
iveness and dispatch.
Oregon has more to gain, and more to lose,
by action or inaction than most states. It has un
matched scenery, it has a . burgeoning tourist
trade, it has new highways as yet only lightly
scarred by the encroachments of billboards.
.
"THE Oregon Highway Interim committee, after
a study of highway and park needs, is quoted
as saying "there is not yet sufficient information
available upon which a proper decision concern
ing legislation (on billboard control) could be
made."
The Oregonian calls this "patently absurd."
The Oregonian is right, but doesn't go far
enough. What added information is necessaiy,
for Pete's sake? We all know what billboards are,
don't we?. We all know what they do to scenic
highways, don't we?
IF THE legislature succumbs to the
. lobbv. and fails to act, or acts only
gap and half-hearted manner, the state stands to
lose.
If, however, it acts forthrightly and strongly,
to place Oregon in the forefront of states which
are going to protect their scenery for tourists and
residents alike, going to serve notice that tax
built highways are not going to be subsided alley

several minutes while others
of the cast delivered their
final lines.
Later, in Miss Cornell's
dressing room, a friend
commented, "Kit was su

she was supposed to be dead
she never moved a muscle.
You could only tell by- the
slight tremor of her chest
that she was alive at all."

that "we must demonstrate

"We must inform the pub

Forestry counsel H. R.

Khrushchev is running a one-

that Kennedy sought her sup

Hatemongering, Terrorism Rise
Together in Crisis in South
By WILLIAM R. McINTYRE
Washington Dynamiting
of public schools and of syn
agogues and other Jewish cen
ters in the South has gone
hand in hand with an increas
ing flow of anti-Negro and
anti-Jewish literature.
A direct connection be
tween perpetrators of the
bombing outrages and pur
veyors of the hate publica
tions is strongly suspected but
not yet proved. Light may be
thrown on the question dur
ing the trial, begun Dec. 1, of
the first of five men indicted
on charges of dynamiting At
lanta's Jewish Temple.
Schools Blasted
' The Atlanta temple bomb
ing, Oct. 12, caused $200,000
damage. Only a week earlier,
the high school at Clinton,
Tenn., suffered even larger
damage from explosion of
three charges of dynamite. An
integrated school at Osage,
W. Va., was virtually destroy
ed in the same way on Nov.
10. In the past year or so,
dynamite blasts have also
damaged Negro or integrated
schools or Jewish synagogues
or community centers in Chat
tanooga, Jacksonville, Miami,
Nashville, and a few places
outside the South. Each bomb
ing has been followed by a
rash of telephoned bomb
threats or warnings.
Most of the hate literature
flooding the South has come
from outside. It has been esti
mated that around two score
monthly or semi-monthly pub
lications are currently in the
business of fomenting racial
or religious animosity. Those
now circulating in southern
states include several put out
by old-line anti-Semetic agi
tators. Inflammatory hand
outs, flyers, and pamphlets
supplement the other publica
tions. New Audience
Fears generated by the Su
preme Court's desegregation
ruling offered a fresh field for
exploitation by anti-Jewish
fanatics. The extremists at
tracted a new audience simply
by adding Negroes to the list
of those they disliked. And the
audience was expanded as the
resylt of a shortage of native
literature to support the White
Citizens Councils that spread
over the South. Members of
the councils were segregation
ists rather than hatemongers,
but a lot of the printed ma
terial imported to promote the
cause was as much anti-Jewish
as pro-segregationist.
Given the intense hostility
to school integration that ex
ists in a large part of the
South, it is logical to assume
that publications lashing out
at Negroes and Jews bear
some of the blame for the re
cent terrorist acts. However
that may be, the outbreaks of
violence have dismayed most
southern leaders and caused
them to repeat earlier warn
ings to avoid lawless acts in
fighting desegregation.

she discussed with him his
attitude toward the late
Joseph R. McCarthy. She said
several persons called on her
after the Post article appear
ed to say that Kennedy felt
he had been misquoted or mis
understood in their conversa
tion. A footnote in Mrs. Roose
velt's book invited Kennedy
publicly to correct the record
if he had been placed in a
false position by what she has
written.
In her TV appearance, Mrs.
Roosevelt was asked how she
and other liberals would vote
in a presidential contest be
tween Kennedy and Nelson
A. Rockefeller, the Republi
can Gov.-elect of New York.
She replied she hoped no such
choice would be made, add
ing that she would do all she
could "to have us (the Demo
crats) nominate for president
someone at least, who we felt
did not have any of the diffi
culties that might possibly
come up if Sen. Kennedy
were nominated."

Mrs. R. did not mention the
McCarthy issue on TV, but
thorities attempting to track I
down persons responsible for
the bombings. But because
some doubt exists about ex

may be asked at the coming

in interstate commerce for the

charming young man whose
father had been spending
oodles (her word) of money
all over the country and in
whose behalf there probably
now is a representative in
every state.
She summed up, however,
by saying she did not want in
the White House a president
"who understands what cour
age is, and admires it, but
has not quite the independ
ence to have it."
There is reason to believe
that Kennedy's position on
McCarthy is firmer than Mrs.
Roosevelt suspects and, per
haps, not far from her own.
It appears, however, that the
young senator must state it
publicly to convince her, if
he desires to do that.
Beyond dealing with the
senator, Mrs. R. opined that

trouble is that such prohi
