Any Number Can Play
We are duly grateful to those alert and public
spirited citizens of the American south who have
pointed out the dangers inherent in some books
and stories. .
If they hadn't mentioned it, we'd have gone to
our grave thinking that "The Three Little Pigs"
is nothing but a charming fable, and that "The
Rabbits' Wedding" was only a children's story.
Now that we're alerted to the fact that they
are, in fact, insidious propaganda for the mon-
grelization of the race, we dan keep our eye out
sharply for such dangerous items.
yHE field of song-writing immediately suggests
1 itself.
In this new mood of ours, we find that "The
Red Red Robin Goes Bob Bob Bobbin' Along" is a
thinly-disguised Communist tract, designed to
indoctrinate the younger generation as to the in
vincibility of the Marxist dogmas. '
. "Little Red Riding Hood" is equally obvious
the innocent Red satellite saved from the big,
bad capitalistic wolf in the nick of time by the
heroic peoples wood-cutter, who is, of course,
the representation of the Soviets.
, ,
MOW; that bur suspicions have been aroused,
A by Golly, it becomes evident we have been
blind too long, and that in actuality the list of
subtle propagandists songs and stories is long
indeed. -
What about the "White Cliffs of Dover"?
Isn't that a pro-segregationist song, masquerading
as a wartime . tribute to - Anglo-Saxon Great
Britain? . ; .
"Red Sails in the Sunset" what is that but
a veiled warning from the Chinese Communists?
--
A ND in another song we vaguely remember, the
" words go, "The leaves of brown came tumb
ling down . . ." Aha ! There's a warning for the
colored races, all right. Disguised, of course, but
still blatant when one once finds the key.
At our earliest opportunity we shall report
these and a list of others to the FBI. . Now that
you know the game, help yourself. Why not start
with "Black Beauty," '.'I'm Dreaming of a White
Christmas," "The Red Badge of Courage," "Bos
ton Blackie," and "The, Scarlet Letter," and go on
from there? Any number can play. E.A.
Make Way for Horses
With the Jackson county 4-H wagon trek now
under way, with the "On To Oregon" cavalcade
moving towardthis state, with the. Pony Express
riders galloping along our highways occasionally,
and with the increased number of parades and
rodeos this Centennial '.summer, ft might be ap
propriate to remind drivers that horses have Jhe
right of way on Oregon highways. .
Not only our own drivers it might even be
a good idea both from the viewpoint of safety
and of Centennial publicity, for the highway com
mission to post signs informing -tourists of ths
fact at Oregon's border.
buch signs might prevent a tragedy, or at least
confusion, as well as pointing but that Oregon is
a horsy state this summer, 100 years past the time
that horses were the chief means of transporta
tion and communication. E.A.
Respected Publication
The Oregon Historical Quarterly is a serious
publication, dedicated to highlighting and report
ing facts of historical interest about Oregon.
It is also one of the best of the state historical
publications. And it is this year celebrating its
60th annversary of publication.
To its staff, headed f by Editor Thomas
Vaughan, who is also director of the Oregon His
torical Society, our congratulations.
.
THE magazine probably will never become a
best-seller, for not everyone cares much about
history, and even many that do will find the Quar
terly a bit too specialized for their interests and
tastes.
But it is a "must" for the reader who is serious
in his interest in Oregon
it is both a forum and
dispute. '
It also, on occasions, lias been a jumping off
place for works of a more popular and wide
spread nature.-For instance, Lewis A. McArthur's
justly-noted book, "Oregon Geographic Names,"
grew out of a series of articles in the Quarterly.
.
AN article in Sunday's Oregonian told a bit
" about the magazine. It concluded this way:
"Attorneys consult it for information on land
holdings. A number of Indians have proved their
rights to substantial amounts of federal funds
with data from the Quarterly, Students and club
women inddition to authors consult it fre
quently for research material. ; -
m " 'Somehow says Vaughan, 'everyone uses
this magazine. Until they need it, they never
heard of it But when they need it, they need it
badly.' " E.A. -
Why?
Can anyone tell us the reason why a person
would deliberately want to break off any of Med
ford's attractive new. street trees?
Such sheer and stupid vandalism is a disgrace
to the community just as the fact that the trees
were-obtained is a credit. We hope whoever is
responsible gets caught, and pays the $50 fine
for such destructiveness. E.A.

ers do not often lead to paint
ers' studios, to
to experi
mental thea
ters, or to
long evenings
with serious
p h ilosophers.
But in this
strange city,
the life of the
mind is an ex-
4os;pb aisop n l l a r ating,
even an irristible spectable.
Maybe it was self-indulgent,
but I have almost all my time
here happily exploring the
life of the mind in the new
Poland. Maybe it is presump
tuous in a dust-begrimed po
litical reporter; but I should
also like to sketch an idea
that this experience has sug
gested.
It is an idea intended to an
swer certain nagging ques
itons. What is it that sets
apart the artists, and intellec
tuals of the new Poland from
the Western intellectuals and
artists to whom they so large
ly look for inspiration? Why
are these Poles somehow
more exhilarated and there
fore vastly more exhilarating?
Why, in Poland does one not
scent the smell of Alexandri
an decay that hangs over so
much of the artistic and intel
lectual life of the West? '
THE problem is difficult, pre
cisely because it is a prob
lem of human style and at
mosphere. Polish philosophy,
insofar, as I understand it,
has something new to say in
a new way. But Polish paint
ing, despite its powerful cre
ative surge, is not enormously
different from modern West
ern painting.. In varying de
grees, the same holds true for
the other arts. It is the artists
who are different, in short,
rather than the arts they prac
tice. To make the .problem still
more difficult, there are the
wretched conditions in which
most Polish artists and intel
lectuals live and work. Ma
terially, life is much better
in Poland today than in the
Stalinist past. Yet except for
the few with established rep
utations, who hold editorial
posts of university appoint
ments, the men and women
whom I met were still living
as very few "Americans could
bear to live. r
AGAIN, the life of the mind
in the new Poland is
quite astonishingly free con
sidering that this is a Com
munist country. One is
amazed, for instance, to see
such a work as "Ubu Roi," by
the French Surrealist Alfred
Jarry, being played , in a Po

staged and costumed with
string, baling wire, and as
sorted underclothing, is still
less breathtaking than the
thing itself.
In the same fashion, one is
almost more amazed to see
the most coveted university
appointments going to the
best men in their fields, rath
er than to men who are wil
ling to parrot the official dog
mas. But although one could
go on for a long time piling
up such illustrations, there
is still the censor, sometimes
heavy-handed. There is stUl
the threat of party interven
tion, to impose the official
dogmas. , There are still lim
its, known to all, which can
not be transgressed.
rT sum, Polish artists and
intellectuals, though aston
ishingly, free, are still less
free than their Western com
rades; and. their material re
wards are poorer too. Why
then should they be more ex
hilarated and exhilarating?
Why should they seem, in a
curious way, more serious and
more successful?
The answed lies, I think, in
the simple fact that uncon
sciously or consciously, all
these men and women are
moved by a deep sense of his
toric missions. That is what
they have, which their West
ern comrades do not : have.
Their sense of mission, is jus
tified, moreover. These men
and women who live the almost-free
life, of the mind in
Poland are playing a great
role.
The young painter finish
ing his abstract picture, the
youthful philosopher finding
his way through the labyrinth
of Wittenstein, the poet writ
ing as he feels with no didac
tic purpose, may or may not
be doing work that will be re
membered forever. But
whether his work is good or
bad (and some I saw seemed
to me very good indeed), it is
always an assertion of the
free life of the mind. And in
Poland this assertion has a
value that is lacking in the
West.
r" IS this, of course, which
makes one feel about these
people as one feels about an
army with banners. They are
human. They are not united
except by their hatred of Stal
inism. For where wUl you
find intellectuals and artists
undivided by cliques and
jealousies? Some may be
geniuses but some are certain
ly fakers. For when and in
what country has the creative
life lacked its share of fakers?
Yet all are banner-bearers, all
the same.
Whether they are resigned
or convinced, none of these
men and women seriously ex
pect a change or regime in
Poland. They bear1 their ban

free life, not to change the
regime, but to keep the re-

In the Day's News
By FRANK
A n interesting proposal
was offered the other day by
Sen. Richard Neuberger of
Oregon, who urged the con
gress to enact a broader pro
gram of cancer research as
a fitting memorial to John
Foster Dulles, America's
great secretary of state who
was struck down by cancer
at the very moment when
his exceptional talents were
most needed by his country.
Senator Neuberger - who
himself has just emerged
from a bout with the dreaded
killer was testifying at a
senate appropriations subcom
mittee hearing on a money
bill for the federal depart
ment of health, education and
welfare. He told his collea
gues that an expansion of can
cer research funds from 75
million to 109 million dollars
could be aimed at vanquish
ing the disease that took Dul
les' life. .
He .added: ,
"Can we dare to pinch pen
nies in the face of a challenge
like .that?"
He was joined in his pro
posal by Sen. Lister Hill
of Alabama, chairman of the
subcommittee, who pointed
out " that cancer has robbed
the United States senate of
some of its greatest leaders,"
including Senator Taft of
Ohio. Senator Vandenberg of
Michigan and many other dis
tinguished and patriotic lead
ers. Here's a thought:
Maybe we can accomp
lish what Senator Neuberger
suggests by PINCHING
SOME PENNIES - pennies
that are being wasted.
For example:
There is the palatial new
senate office building on Cap
itol Hill. It was originally
supposed to cost about 20 mil
lion dollars. Its final cost will
be closer to 30 million dol
lars. Why?
Well, from all we can read
in the papers, the job seems to
have been VERY fuzzily
planned. The floors, it is said,
were of a special rubber til
ing. After the building was
occupied, it was discovered
that they were very noisy.
The click of the secretaries'
heels and the rattle of the
electric typewriters made
such a clatter that the sen
ators couldn't think.
So-
It was proposed to lay car
pets over the tile. But . . .
that would cost $150,000 ex
tra. And . . . the carpets
would have been so THICK
that it would have been nec
essary to cut off two inches
from the bottom of the cost
ly oak doors so they would
open. That would cost more
money.
foreign ministers conference
at Geneva. '
The "old man" wa$ far
from retired.
Made Choice laowt
Then it became known that
his own choice as the man
to take over his job was Fi
nance Minister Franz Etzel, a
virtual unknown in Germany.
It also became apparent
that Adenauer's conception of
the presidency was far dif
ferent from the job as it was
administered under incum
bent Theodor Heuss-." He in
tended to hold on to the reins.
There is a bitterly humor
ous saying in Germany. It is
that the only two people who
really do not want Germany
reunified are Adenauer and
Communist East Germany's
President Wilhelm Pieck.
The reasoning is that tinder
reunification both would lose
their jobs.
The Christian Democrats
predominantly are Roman
Catholic. . 'N
While the political parties
are not necessarily divided
along religious lines, the ma
It developed that a lot of
misinformed people, like the
House members and newspa
per reporters, have got the
whole thing backwards. They
have .been picturing states
men over the world-including
our own-as forever -setting
each other up to martinis,
and sticking the folks back
home for the tab.
That's why the House is al
ways so tight with the money
when the State department
comes up each spring for its
"representation" alio wance.
House members call this whis
key (money, and they wonder
aloud whether considerable of
it isn't used to soothe the
nerves of our own diplomats.
. In the first place, said sub
committee chairman Lyndon
JENKINS
The new senate office
building called for a new sub
way from the capitol build
ing to the . new office build
ing, with cars to carry the
senators so they wouldn't
have to walk. So that was
tackled. When it was about
finished, it was discovered
that it came into the capitol
building at the wrong place.
So the whole end of it had to
be done over at a cost of some
four million dollars.
And so on.
Here's what I'm getting at:
Things like these mean
WASTED pennies. In compar
ison with all the. FABULOUS
waste that goes on in our
federal government, they are
no more than pennies al
though to us taxpayers out
here in the brush they look
like real money. Senator
Byrd's been telling us for
years that our whole federal
government is shot through
with waste like this waste
that could be avoided by the
simple practice by our federal
government of the kind of
practice in our OWN private
affairs.
I'm all for Senator Neuber
ppr's nrrmnsal
I think it would be WON
DERFUL. . . .
But I thing it ought to be
paid for by PINCHINGvPEN
NIES - the pennies that are
wasted. In the fantastic,
sprawling structure that we
call our federal government
there are plenty of wasted
pennies to be pinched.

Protestants also are in the

party from power.
Economic Drag
For the record, Adenauer
demands reunification now.
How ardently he .wanjs it
right now is another question.
In the event of reunification,
the poor eastern zone cpjild
only be an economic drag on
the prosperous west. Burther,
it would reopen the question
of the eastern province be
yond the Oder-Neisfa now
held by Poland.
Privately, many West Ger
mans do not want either cir
cumstance right now.
But regardless of the inner
workings of German politics,
of two things there can be
no doubt. One is Adenauer's
deep hatred for Communism.
The other is the undeniable
fact that West "Germany is
created in Adenauer's own .
image and he is ifc symbol.
B. Johnson (D-Tex.), the
money doesn't all go to buy
drinks. In fact, he said most
of it goes for food, entertain
ment, and soft drinks;
His own experience at U.S.
diplomatic affairs, Johnson
said, is that you may get a lit
tle weenie sausage down at
the end of the table, provided
you get there early enough.
And he said chances are the
ambassador himself paid' for
that.
"That is true," said the
State department man. "Whis
key is a minor item in the rep
resentation allowance."
Johnson asked how much
our ambassador to Great
Britain can draw from us tax
payers toward the cost of his
diolomatic soirees, and how
this compares with the allow
ance which the British give
their ambassador here. .
British 'Prestige' Money
The witness couldn't say
for sure about the British am
bassador, except that he gets
$100,000 a year for entertain
ment and other matters of
"prestige," like pretty clothes
for his wife. He said our man
in London gets $5,000 a year,
not enough to cover the an
nual 4th of July party.
"In a year," the witness
said, "he spends at least five
times what we allow him."
"In other words," said Sen.
J. William Fulbright (D-Ark.)
"you exclude from our top
embassy posts any man who
doesn't have money of his
own, or who hasn's married
a rich wife."
The agency asked Congress
for $850,000 for its entertain
ment costs next year all over
the world. The House cut this
