In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
Let's listen to our President,
i i he ipeaks to us through the
medium of his press confer
ence which is held in his
office in the White House.
These are troubled times.
Dangerous forces are loose in
the world. There is menace
for us in these forces. We need
to know the TRUTH about
them - including how well
prepared we are to meet what
ever dangers may arise.
Whom BETTER can we lis
ten to than our President?
SITTTNG at his desk and fac
ing the questioning report
ers, Ike warned against WAR
SCARES stemming from East
West tensions.
He added that our nation's
defenses are POWERFUL
AND SATISFACTORY for
the present.
TJE WAS asked specifically
whether in his opinion the
present situation is grave
enough to warrant keeping
the bombers of our Strategic
Ah" Command (presumably
with atom and perhaps hydro
gen bombs in their bays)
CONSTANTLY ALOFT and
ready to strike at an instant's
notice.
He replied:
1. The day might come
when such an alert might be
necessary.
"2. He sees no PRESENT
need for it.
3. For the moment, mea
sures taken by the Defense
Department are COMPLETE
LY ADEQUATE.
T ETS put it this way:
-V Dwight D. Eisenhower
is our President.
. He is our LEADER.
He is the world's best
known soldier.
As a MAN, he is widely
trusted.
QO-
It is reasonable to be-
lieve-
The thing for us to do is to
go about our business, aware
that we live in a" world that is
full of dangers, but confident
of the Tightness of our cause
and of our ability to meet
whatever situation we may be
called upon to meet.
In a word-
To keep our shirts on.

Neuberger Takes
Swipe at Hatfield
In Tax Proposals
By A. ROBERT SMITH
Washington Correspondent,
The Mail Tribune
Washington (Special)- Sen.
Richard L. Neuberger (D-Ore.)
took a broad swipe at Gov.
Mark Hatfield
Thursday and
introd uced
four revenue
raising bills to
help pay for
more federal
pro grams
without in
creasing the
national debt.
V S
A. Robt. Smit A am ouer-
ing these bills today because
the time has come when we
must confront the long range
implications of the need to
pay for the governmental
services made essential by the
urgency of the 20th century,"
Neuberger told the Senate.
Senator Raps Hatfield
Referring to Hatfield, Neu
berger said:
"He glibly promised the
voters lower taxes and a
smaller budget. These prom
ises proved impossible from
the time he took the oath of
office, and disillusionment has
steadily set in. Both he and
our state would have benefit
ed if he had candidly told the
voters that increasing num
bers of school children and
college students made lower
taxes and smaller budgets in
Oregon out of the question."
Neuberger's four proposals
are:
1. Increase federal gasoline
tax lVz cents a gallofi to raise
$724 million as President Ei
senhower has recommended.
2. Reduce tax depletion al
lowance on oil and gas pro
ducers from 27 Vz to 15 per
cent to raise $325 million.
3. Allow the Post Office De
partment to adjust postal
rates, just as Bonneville Pow
er Administration adjusts
power rates and forest agen
cies determine minimum fed
eral timber charges. This
would eliminate postal deficit
by raising $350 million. The
Administration has also pro
posed that Congress increase
postal rates once again.
4. Reinstate excess - profits
tax of 1950, which Neuberger
said would hit profiteering in
armament making and related
industry now benefiting by
large defense expenditures.
He said this tax produced $1.6
billion in 1953 before expir
ing. .
Against Tax Boost
Neuberger said 29 govern
ors, including Hatfield, have
recently come out against Ei
senhower's gas tax boost.
"I have great respect for
the intelligence of the aver
age citizen," he said. "I think
he would rather be told the
truth than a palpable political
falsehood. I doubt if there are
very many motorists who
think the federal government
can go on putting up 90 per
cent of the cost of the im
pressive new four-lane inter
state express highways with
out raising federal taxes on
motor fuels to cover increased
costs of this program," said
Neuberger.
Sen. Wayne Morse entered
the chamber as Neuberger
neared the conclusion of his
speech, but did not join in the
discussion.
Mill Closure To
Wipe Out Pondosa
Baker -flJPD- The Pondosa
sawmill, 22 miles northeast of
here, closed operations Thurs
day, it was announced by M.
Gail Beals, La Grande, gener
al manager for Valsetz Lum
ber co.
Valsetz is the holding com
pany for the Pondosa opera
tion. Beals said that lack of tim
ber was the reason for shut
ting down the 35-year-old
mill, which at one time em
ployed more than 150 persons.
The mill produced 18 mil
lion board feet of lumber last
year. Balance of the timber
will be transferred to La
Grande where some of the
workers have been transfer
red. The small community of
Pondosa will be virtually wip
ed out by closure of the plant.
About 70 homes were owned
by the firm.

'Made in Japan1 Not Up
To Previous Standards
Of Playhouse 90 Shows
By WILLIAM EWALD .
New York - (UPD - "Made in
Japan," Thursday night's
CBS-TV Playhouse 90, was a
earnest play
at times, a
moderately in
teresting one.
But it was not
quite up to
the mark that
Playhouse 90
has set most
of this season.
Its skeleton
William Ewald was built
around a young American sol
dier who precipitated the
death of an inconvenient Jap
anese girl friend and then in
duced three buddies to alibi
him. This frame was used as
underpropping for a tidy lec
ture in tolerance and respon
sibility, all of it pretty pain
less. But the trouble with "Made
in Japan" lay in its skeleton
it was not a very well-made
play. Its climax was not
reached when the young GI
decided to confess his errors
late in the evening-that event
cnrt nf crlirlpH in nnH srmatted
in among a set of bones that Flores,
the drama's course was not
only predictable, but robbed
of its tensions.
At one point, as a matter of
fact, a sumo wrestling match
was even inserted just to jazz
things up and while it was a
fascinating side excursion, it
also was rater superfluous.
Despite the lack of taut
scaffolding, the players man
aged to work fairly persua
sively. Dean Stockwell, Dick
York, E. G. Marshall and Rob
ert Vaughn were on board to
good effect and they were
aided by a young Canadian
Japanese lady,' Nobu McCar
thy, who was not only ex
tremely ornamental, but pro
Child Stealing
Charged To Woman
Ontario, Calif. (UPD Mrs.
Betty Jean Yocum, 38, was
held on $5,000 bail today
awaiting preliminary hearing
March 12 on a child stealing
charge rising out of the kid
"ning of 9-week-old Eric
had already gone slack
The true climax of the play
was reached, unfortunately,
about half way through the
evening when a young Japa
nese, accused of the girl's
death, hanged himself. This
was the turning point of the
play and after it occurred,
ine 5-foot 2-inch, 180-pound
housewife who said her desire
to give her husband a son mo
tivated her to snatch the child
from his crib last Friday
while she was babysitting,
faces a possible sentence of 20
years in jail. She would have
faced a possible death penalty
under a kidnaping charge.
