Many of these were incorporated into the program of the chamber, which worked for their achievement. Many of them have been done, by one or another agency, and with the active sup port of the chamber. The series of "clinics" served as a shot in the arm to the chamber organization, and gave its members, and even non-members, a feeling of identification with it. It was good for both the county and the chamber. . . THE area has grown since then, and new prob 4 lems and new challenges face us. A program under the title of "Keep Pace With Tomorrow" is now being sponsored by the chamber, a project in some ways comparable to the successful community clinics. We hope it will do as much good as did the clinic project, for the chamber has not kept pace with the growth of the city and the area in general. As population has increased, so have demands on the local units of government, and on the chamber itself. But the chamber has about the same number of members, and about the same size of budget, as it did several years ago. Without help, it can not do all the things people want it to do. THE chamber is, after all, an organization of people. And for any such organization to work, its members niust participate. No manager, no president, no board of directors can accom plish anything unless they have the support and understanding of the members. And the members cannot expect their desires and wishes to be carried out unless they make them known to their elected representatives. Starting tomorrow morning, a series of seven one-hour meetings will be held at the Jackson hotel for the various divisions of chamber mem bership, at which it is hoped members will voice their "opinions as to what the community needs, and what the chamber can do about it. Naturally, it is hoped this also will stimulate a revived interest in the chamber's work, and the increased membership, and budget, which is necessary for the chamber to have if it is to be effective. SOME 900 people, leaders in their own trades If a majority of them attend, hear the pro josals the chamber officials have outlined, and et their own views be known, the results cannot Dut be good. . It is only in the give-and-take of such meet ings, in the open discussion of problems of pro gress, and m the frank determination what should be done about them, as well as the willingness to take part in' the job, that things can be ac complished. E.A. Music Last Sunday evening, while listening raptly to the Portland Symphony Orchestra in its ex cellent concert here, we got to wondering just what it- is about music that can hold people in a spell, and influence them so strongly. Music is, to put it crudely, nothing but or ganized noise. But since time immemorial it has had the power to affect them in a dozen different ways, and in a dozen different moods. WE THOUGHT at the time that this puzzle might make a subject for a few paragraphs of comment. But Aaron Copland, the distin guished American musician and composer, beat us to it in the current issue of the Saturday EveT ning Post. He devotes a couple of thousand words to how music affects people, and the different ways it does so, on different levels. But he confesses that neither he nor anyone else has yet been able to explain the "why" or the "how" of the musical' effect on humans. ; How does this organized noise (or, if you prefer a politer word, sound) do this? We don't know. WHATEVER the why and how, the effect " that music does have appears to be height ened by familiarity with (up to a point), and knowledge of, music. This, too, is the case with the other arts. But practically everyone responds to the per suasive beat of a brass band. Most people do to the rythms of a dance band. Popular and semi classical music have many ardent advocates. And even the so-called "classical" or "serious" music is gaining an ever-increasing number of devotees. Today, with electronic assistance, more peo ple than ever bef ore have ready access to the world's greatest music at a price everyone can afford. We can, it seems, pass up any worry about the how and the why of musical appreciation. ana simmy agree witn 1 1 (I . . . . xue varieties oi musical pleasure mat await the attentive listener are broadly inclusive. The art of music, without specific subject matter and little spe cific meaning, is nonetheless a balm for the human spirit; not a refuge or escape from the realities of existence, but a haven wherein one makes contact with the essence of human experience. It is an in exhaustible font from which all of us can be replen ished." v E.A. Jackson County Cham . as t uoDiand wnen he savs? 1 1 , , ' . Dennis the Hi,Mr.Mlscn.' Got a match? Today & Tomorrow By Walter SOVIETS IN NEW YORK In his speech at the open ing of the Soviet exposition in New York, Mr. Nixon spoke about Soviet - Amer ican relations briefly but pointedly and with much good sense -Both countries have gone to a lot of trou ble a n d ex- Walter Lippmann p e n s e - the Russians at the coliseum in New York, we in the coming fair in a Moscow park -to show each other our most at tractive faces. Yet we are deeply at odds not only about the future of Germany but also about the future of Asia, of Africa, and in some meas ure, of Latin America. This is not the result only, said the Vice President, of "a lack of understanding" which can be cured by more contact, more cultural exchanges, more trade. There are no doubt misun derstandings which are based on fear or false information. But the root of the trouble is not misunderstanding. On the contrary it is the understand ing that "there are basic con flicts of interest and deeply clashing ideologies that are not easily removed. The prime example here is Ger many, where each side deems is its own . interest o bring the whole of Germany with-, in the orbit of its own mili tary and political system. ' But overriding these con flicts of interest, there is, as Mr. Nixon pointed out, a rec ognition on both sides of "the folly of allowing them to de velop into a conflict which would result in the destruc tion of our civilization." We have to co-exist with our con flicts of interest unsettled be cause, the balance of power being what it is, there is no way of achieving a victory which could settle them by war. Therefore, as Mr. Nixon pu t it, "We increased ex change and contact between our two peoples so that our differences can be discussed in the . best possible climate of understanding." A CLIMATE of understand V ing would not be possi ble if there did not exist a profound military stalemate. This stalemate could conceiv ably be dissolved if this coun try did what the Soviet Union wiU certainly not do if it ceased to keep even in the race of armaments. But thanks to those who have been ringing the alarm bell, the fact is that this country will keep the balance even. Within this stalemate and in part because of this stale mate, the paramount fact in Try and -By BENNETT CERF- AN IMPECCABLY attired Londoner sought to purchase an expensive and exclusive automobile. "My dear fellow," expostulated the dealer, "we've been allotted only two of this model all year, and there - , are already 174 orders on our books ahead of yours. "Too bad," murmured the Londoner, seemingly not too dismayed by the tidings. As he exited he ostentatiously tossed a hefty bundle of ten-pound notes into the trash basket. The very next morning the precise model he was seeking turned up in some' mysterious fashion, and was delivered to him. A few days later, the dealer, very agitated, called him on the phone. "Those ten-pound notes!" he groaned. "Every one of them has proved to be a counterfeit! "Of course," agreed the Londoner blandly. That's why I threw them in the trash basket" - -". Herb Stein noted this sign on the windshield of a snaB foreign apecta cart "Fleas kelp stamp out US. 6ags." Menace Lippmann the world situation is that not only in Russia and the Umted States and Canada but aU over Europe both East and West, and in all the other continents a period of swift and fascinating and all-ab sorbing industrial and tech nological change has begun There is no important power capable of waging a big war which does not see its best future in its own internal de velopment. The post-war era with its ruins and its desper: ation is over, and the world has come into an age, in some ways like the second half of the 19th century, when there have opened up visjtas of great progress in the rise of the popula'r standard of life What, the Russians are say ing ; by - their exposition in New York is that their own internal development is their paramount interest. If this is true, as it appears to be, how is it to be reconciled with the idea, which undoubt edly prevails also, that Com munism is on the way towards world supremacy? CJINCE 1917 there has been a phansp in t.hf Commu nistic doctrine. The original idea was that the workers of the world would follow the Russian lead and would rise up "in a world revolution They tfid not do that. This was followed by the idea that the Communist realm would expand by the entry of the Red Army into adjacent coun tries which had been . sub verted by local and imported Communist agents. This idea, though not abandoned en tirely, has been largely frus trated by the Western policy of containment. The current idea is that the example of the spectacular development of the Soviet Union will be contagious in the backward countries of Asia and Africa. For the present day Communists are able to say that Russia has proved by its example what a backward country can do and how it can do it quickly; the United States, on the other hand, though it is an in dustrial ' and technological marvel, is not an example which a crowded and back ward country can follow, Therefore, in the peaceable competition, the Soviet Un ion win gain influence ' and the West wiU lose influence. This is the inner nature of the Soviet challenge, and the sooner the professional anti Communists among us under stand it, the better it win be, For when we understand the real challenge, which in the perspective of history is enor mous, we shall be asking our selves some very searching questions about whether we are paying enough attention to our own internal develop ment.

Everett Acklin, Ashland, Ore. Wordkrafters To the Editor: This Is to the business people and those who are working to bring people into our valley during this centennial year. I wonder how many of you know that there is a national contest club and that it is meeting in Portland next month! Or that there is a State Contest Club hat meets in Portland every year! Or that there is a local contest club that meets every month! Of , course our local has quite a struggle to keep going partly because some of our local merchants do not under stand what they are missing when they refuse to bother with blanks for the contests that are put on by many large companies. Did you know that right here in Medford quite a lot of money as well as nice prizes have been won through contests of various kinds? A few years ago a lady won $10,. 000 and I'm sure she spent much of it right here in Med ford. Just last year a family won several thousand dollars worth oi goods and some money on another national, and they are still here and interested in contesting. Many members of our Wordkraf ters have won radios, washing machines, electric or gas ranges, freezers, refrigera tors, TV sets, and wrist watches. The local dealers who give out contest blanks are to be congratulated for their co operation and help, but I say "Shame on those who hide the blanks and tell us they never heard of the contests." As to the National Contest- ers who wUl meet in Portland the first week in August, they wUl be coming from all over the U.S. It would be wonder ful if our valley could be represented- Some of us know from - past participation that it wUl be really something if we in Oregon do our duty. A few years ago some of us went to a National Convention n HoUywood and there was never a dull moment. Some kind of contest was under way whenever business and speeches were not in session and for each contest prizes were given (they had been do nated by people all over the country). There were more than 400 people at the ban quet All of this is leading up to our big question. Are any of our good business people will ing to donate something for that big affair? It could be a picture, a dish, candy, fruit, table decorations, or good ad vertising matter of any kind. We would have to know soon in order to contact our state chairman very soon.

In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS Hazards of modern life note: r Two young brothers were electrocuted as they tinkered with the aerial of their TV set in the basement of their home in Blen Burnie, Mary land, the other day. Police theorized that they ignored or failed to notice a printed warning that the set should be unplugged before the aerial was handled. The authorities said a damp concrete floor and .steel frames of nearby beds appar ently acted as conductors of the fatal current. Fi OLKLAHOMA CITY, a seven-year-old boy w a found dead m an electric dryer at a self-service laun dry. Piecing together the evi dence, including a wish the child had expressed several days before, it was speculated that he had climbed into the dryer because he wanted to ride In the drum. ADD to these the tragic number of children who have perished as a result of locking themselves into aban doned refrigerator that ap pealed to their childish minds Matter of Fact By Joseph AIsop ADOLPH KHRUSHCHEV w ashington - The inner circle of the American Gov ernment has been shaken and alarmed by a "Hitler - like" interview giv to W. AvdreU Harriman by Nikita S. Khrushchev. The crude threats that the Soviet leader indulg- loftph Aisop ed m, the bru tal tone and the unprintable language that he employed, are considered to mark a new phase in the world situation. Khrushchev, in fact, seized the opportunity of former Gov. Harriman's visit on Tues day of last week to say things to the U.S. government that be could not have said in any other way. , The U.S. Ambassador to Moscow, Lewellyn Thompson, was not a possible channel, according to government sources here, since no accred ited representative of the United States could have per mitted himself to hear Khrush chev out to the end. As a pri vate person, former Gov. Har riman was under no obliga tion to break off the conversa tion. Beginning in Khrush chev's Moscow office, . the meeting was even prolonged at the Soviet leader's country viUa, where Anastas Nikoyan and others joined the group. VET THE fact that Khrush chev was really speaking, not to former Gov. Harriman, but through him to President Eisenhower, was made abun dantly clear. At one point, when the Soviet leader was emphasizing his readiness to use military force to get his way at Berlin, he said to Har riman, "You must teU your President what I have said." Harriman replied that he was travelling as a private per son, with no right to receive messages for the President. "Well, then,'.' said Khrush chev, "I win teU him." But in fact the former Gov ernor did exactly as Khrush chev desired, immediately sending an account of all that Khrushchev said through the Moscow Embassy to Washing ton. He requested that this account be closely held for the time being, apparently be cause he is under contract to publish Jiis own story of his trip to Russia. Meanwhile, however, the impact was sharp here. Grave concern spread" from gfoUp to group. Consequently it is now possi ble to describe at least the purport of this Harriman- Khrushchev meeting, which is bemg compared to Lord Hali fax's famous meetings with Hitler and Goering in the time e before Munich. THE decidedly misleading first reports of the Khrush chev's "inflexibility," gave pride of place to Khrushchev's alleged desire to improve re lations" with the United States. As is his habit, Khrush chev mingled a good deal of sweet talk about the charming possibilities of peaceful co-ex istence with the hectoring and the menaces. But Khrushchev also indicated only too plain ly that the first step towards improved Soviet-American re lations would have to take the form of a series of sweeping concessions to his viewpoint and wishes. The Berlin problem was the most immediately crucial in the wide range of problems discussed: and the line Khrushchev took on Berlin was typical of the whole. On the one hand, Khrushchev ad mitted the existence of cer tain limitations on Western powers so they could not ac cept any arrangement that would mean the installation of a Communist regime in West Germany, or even in West Berlin. He denied desir ing this result. IN THE other hand, so it is V stated, he was eauaUy in- as fascinating playhouses and the equaUy tragic deaths of those who have pulled plastic bags over their heads in play ful simulation ' of space hel mets. This thought occurs: Is this modern world fan tasticaUy dangerous? Especially for children? iNE wonders. Reading these heartrending stories, which are a tragic part of this gadget world in which we live, it is natural that the thought should come to us that this complicated modern age holds more haz ards for children than any preceding age. But history tells us this al ways has been a dangerous world. There were the saber tooth tigers, for example, that lurked in the shadows beyond the protecting light of the fires that burned before the cave doors of our prehistoric ancestors. If a child wandered into these shadows, it was pretty likely to be gobbled up. ipHIS question is pertinent: Vv1 sistent that he had made his rock-bottom offer on Berlin. This rock-bottom offer, he de clared, was the Soviet plan to make Berlin a "free city," with a Western presence in the form of reduced garrisons, but with aU control of the right of access in the hands of the Kremlin's East German puppets. The. Berlin negotia tions, he insisted, must be' re sumed on the basis of this offer. Otherwise, he said with great emphasis, he would have to carry out his threat to con front the Western powers with an accomplished fact, by sign ing a peace treaty with East Germany. More important still, he backed up the political threat with the crudest sort of mili tary threat. In strong lan guage, he warned that the So viet Union would give imme diate military support to the East Germans, if the Western powers attempted to assert their established right of ac cess to West Berlin after a peace treaty had acknowl edged the territorial serenity, of the East German govern ment. FONE WAY or another and in one ' place or another, either Khrushchev himself or the Soviet government has said these things before. Most notably, Khrushchev talked of using force to sustain the alleged serenity of East Ger many at the very outset of the Berlin crisis last Novem ber. This was the speech which caused the State De partment to assert that "Khrushchev had got himself out on a limb," and to argue that a "face-saving arrange ment" was needed at Berlin, to permit the Soviet leader to retreat from this supposed limb with reasonable dignity. , But even with respect to Berlin, there were two major and ominous novelties in the Khrushchev - Harriman inter view. In the first place, it proved to the hilt what the Geneva conference had al ready hinted - that Khrush chev has no desire at all to get off this supposed limb; and that, in reality, he does not regard himself as bemg out on a limb about Berlin. And in the second place, the inter view was no mere speech, pos sibly intended as propaganda, but a personal discussion with a highly placed American, iraniciy intended to be re peated to the American Presi dent. At no time in the past, has Khrushchev talked in this manner to any American, in cluding the American report ers he has received. FOR these reasons, the Inter view has been compared at the State Department to the Khrushchev message to Presi dent Eisenhower, sent , last September at the height of the Quemoy crisis, which the White House found too offen sively threatening and coldly returned it to the Soviet Em bassy. On that occasion, Khrushchev wrote that "to touch off a war against Peo ples' China means to doom to certain death sons of the Am erican people and to start the conflagration of a world war. On that occasion, too, the crisis subsided in the end without an American retreat or a world conflagration. But today, the interview that can not be returned is causing more concern than was caused by the returned note. Besides Berlin, the inter view covered many topics, some of them even cheerful topics, and touched on many other grave problems, includ ing the Far Eastern problem Reasonably detailed outlines of what was said about these other problems are not as yet available. But the main theme that ran through the whole discussion, including the dis cussion of the Berlin problem, can be reported on good au thority. The need to "face facts," as Khrushchev likes to put it, was the main theme. The cen tral "fact" to be faced, in turn, was the great change in the world balance of military power. This point Khrushchev apparently stressed in an ex treme manner, brandishing his missiles, fondling his H- bombs and generally flexing the Soviet Union's military muscles and claiming their in vincible superiority. It was mainly this aspect of the in terview which has caused it to be called "Hitler-like" in official circles. THE interview was further marked, according to re liable reports, by Khrush chev's violent and unrestrain ed attacks on certain Western policies and personalities. In these passages, Khrushchev used the language that is de scribed as unprintable by those who should know. Final ly, former Gov. Harriman was Why didn't ALL the chil dren f aU victim to these dang ers? THE answer, I think, is sim nle. The children were TAUGHT how to avoid these dangers. POTLUCK (By M-T Staff and ' Contributors) There are several boys in town who ran afoul of the ancient (but hardly admira ble) tradition of hazing not long ago. If our teen age sources of information are correct, the boys were ninth graders, who next year will be sophomores at Medford High school. The villains in the piece are high schoolers, who, banned by school regulations from the bullying tactics of traditional initiations, have to conduct such activities in the summer time.. Anyway, we hear the older boys set upon the younger ones, and shaved their heads, right down to the skin. A couple of the "initiates" also had their heads painted. One of them, in fact, is now re ferred to as "Chrome Dome." And all, we understand, are now wearing close-fitting caps. This, we suppose, comes un der the category of "good, clean fun." e e e Overheard, small girl to teen ager the admires: "I like you better than I like me." This office receives a con stant supply of promotional material from television and radio networks, movie studios, and other parties at interest, each of them designed to wan: gle a "plug" in the paper for some forthcoming movie, or TV or radio show. Some of these are ingenious, others are plain silly, and most of them are mighty un- interesting. One of them which arrived last week intrigued us, how ever. It was a jig-saw puzzle (yes, we "bit" and took the time to fit it together) that when completed showed a see n'e from a forthcoming film. I wonder what the publicity department of the studio ex pects" to gain by this rather expensive procedure - expen sive when one considers that the mailing probably went to most of the 1,700 or so daily papers in the country. We got a telephone call last week from a mend who saw the Oregon Jour nal's headline over the story about the Haxfields' new ba by. He said it really meant that the governor became a grandfather, rather than a father. It iaid:."First Arriv . al for Hatfields Daughter." And it WOULD have meant that, had one little apostro phe been in the line. Who says punctuation, isn't im portant e e e And speaking of headlines, our friend from Phoenix makes his reappearance this week. He clipped and mailed us an M-T line which said "Curry Grand Jury To Study Shoot ing," and commented: "Craps? Traps? Archery? Or just shooting the breeze?" One of our young men dug up an item from a 1859 issue of the Oregon Argus, -copied it, and laid it approv ingly on our desk. It saidt : "'Fellow ciliiensl said a North Carolina candidate, 'I am a Democrat and was never anything else. There are three topics that now agitate the state: the United States Bank, the tarrif, and the penitentiary. I shall pass over the first two very briefly, as my sentiments are well known, and come to the penitentiary, where I shall dwell for some rime!' " A friend of this column. eyeing askance some of the Centennial sartorial oddities, comments as follows: Today when a beard I be hold, It makes me pause and won der: Is it a young man trying to look old Or an old man trying to look younger? See a lady in a poke bonnet And a long Centennial dress: Grandmother or grand-' daughter? It's anybody's guess. reportedly much impressed by the extreme self-confidence, amounting to downright arro gance, that Khrushchev dis played from start to finish. One sign of this self-con fidence, apparently, was the air of good humor that seldom left Khrushchev, even when he was making his most ex treme claims and uttering his crudest threats. In short, so it is said, "this interview was not Hitler-like because there wasn't any screaming or froth ing at the mouth; it was Hitler-like because of the hard substance o f Khrushchev's words."
