Russian Exhibit in New York
Said Show of What Is To Be'
By ANTHONY AUSTIN
UPI Correspondent
Paris (CPU - The Soviet
Union opened a wonderful
exhibition in New York last
week - of the country the
Russians hope 1 some day to
have.
According to all accounts,
Russia, as portrayed at the
Soviet Fair, is a clickety-click
land of modern efficiency,
comfort and glitter, and this
reported would like to visit
that Russia when it is there.
It was not there, except for
its first glimmerings, when
he ended a seven-month stint
in Moscow as UPI correspond
ent this spring.
The lives of the average
Russian seem drab and hard
by American standards. From
the Russian own words, much
of their industry and agri
culture was still steeped in
APPLEGATE VALLEY
Historic Sites Marked
Br MAUDE ZIEGLER
Applegate Valley - Points
of historic interest in the Ap
plegate Valley; that other
wise would go unnoticed by
visitors in the area, now are
plainly marked with attract
ive signs.
The signs, in the shape of
Oregon, were made by stu
dents of Medford schools for
the Jackson county Centen
nial association. On the signs,
besides the name of the par
ticular site, is a number which
serves as a key in looking up
further information in the
"Centennial Guide Book to
the Wonders of the Rogue
River Valley," published by
the association.
, -One of the sites is Union
town, a bustling mining town
of the early days, designated
as having a post office in
1879. Its' only postmaster,
Theodoric ' Camerson, served
until 1891. His staunch views
on upholding the Union dur
ing the Civil war gave the
town its name. .
UU1 nunc ia OllUlUU wi
the sites designated. It was
named after the wealthy and
influential "boss" of the Chi
nese inhabitants in the area.
He owned the first hydraulic
mine in the Applegate coun
try. Kubli mill, also marked, is
at the site of the early store
and trading post built in 1857
and operated by Casper Kubli.
Another of the points of in
terest is the site of the village
of Logtown and the cemetery,
which is still kept up today.
The logtown rose, planted in
1863 by a resident of the vil
lage still grows beside high
way 238, several miles north
of Ruch. Last year, members
of the Applegate Garden club
planted cuttings from the rose
along the front border of the
cemetery.
Herling, designated as a
post office and stage stop in
July, 1888, is about four miles
southwest of Jacksonville.
The postoffice was discontin
ued in 1895.
Also marked is the site
where a man by the name of
Martin Angel was murdered
by Indians in 1856. It is re
ported that Angel was buried
on the spot.
Kanaka Flat, just out of
Jacksonville, is designated as
the place where mand made
bricks were made .for the
first building in Jacksonville.
The Centennial Guide Book
can be obtained at the Cen
tennial headquarters in Med
ford and at the Siskiyou
stockade. A photo of the en
trance to Log town cemetery
also is shown in the guide
book.
Ten young people of the

ing, Douglas McKay, Truman
Elmore and Marvin Gibson.

Beth Ramsey. Henry Vessell
graduated from Jacksonville
and is now employed at a
Medford service station.
Mr. and Mrs. Herb Sut
ton of San Diego were recent
overnight guests of Mr. and
Mrs. Charles Williams.
Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Has
kins of Medford are spending
a few weeks at their summer
home here, and were among

fishing trip in the Lakeview
area.
Mr. and Mrs. Don Slater
and children, Keith and Elaine
of San Diego, are new resi

After spending a few days
here with her parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Ed ... Fossen, Miss
Romelle Fossen has returned
to University of Oregon as a
summer research student in
mathematics and science. Ro
melle, who has completed her
freshman year at the universi

selected for the course.
Mr. and Mrs. Boyd Hamil
ton made a trip to Willow

property. Mrs. Smith has pur

neer holdings of the valley,
and formerly was owned by
the late William and Emma
Smith.
John Ramsey, who enlisted
in the Navy about a year ago,
is enrolled in aviation techni
cal school in Memphis, Tenn.
Rural Reflections: The
crowning reward for hard
work and noble ambitions has
been achieved for-local gar
den club women in the cheer
ful yellow blossoms appear
ing in June on the 65 yellow
rose bushes planted at the
Log Town cemetery in De
cember. The bushes received their
second watering last week by
the hauling method, a gallon
to a bush, and a second saw
dust mulch. The ladies report
that the soil at the roots of
the bushes is maintaining good
moisture as a result of the
sawdust.
The rose originally brought
from the Middle west by the
McKee family, is classified
by Marcel -Le Piniec, local
botanist, as the Harrison yel
low rose from England.
manpower-wasting methods
This is not to .say, however,
that the organizers of the So
viet exhibition in the Colise
um on Columbus Circle were
out to hoodwink rfhe Ameri
can public.
If that were so, Russia
would not welcome thousands
of American tourists every
year and permit them to trav
el over wide areas of the
country.
"What Is To Be" "
The disparity between some
of the claims at the Coliseum
and the reality on Cork st.,
Moscow, may be explained
by a state of mind which fuz
zes up the borderline between
what is and what is to be.
"Russia is the country of
the bright tomorrow," said
a Russian to this reporter.
"We've all been living in the
future since we were chil
dren." He was mocking a Russian
trait, but with a touch of
pride.
The Russians acting as
guides at their "Exhibition of
Science Technology and Cul
ture" must get a sense of
pride, too, rather than dis
simulation - though they
know that many of the 10.000
items on view are less than
representative.
What if the women's dresses
and coats that New Year fash
ion writers found fairly good
are the pride of Gum's shop
windows in Moscow but are
seldom seen being worn?
What if the men's suits
would cost the average Rus
sian worker two or three
month's wages, and Russians
on the street look to Ameri
cans as though they were out
fitted at a charity sale?
The two-toned Volga auto
mobile and the small Mosk
vitch shown at the exhibition
still are luxuries only to be
dreamed of by most Russians.
The relatively few citizens
who can afford cars have to
wait a year or longer to buy
them (strictly cash).
One-Room Apartments
The reasonably attractive
model apartments at the ex
hibition still are not much
more than models in the Sovi
et Union. Most Russian cities
families have one room to
live in, sSaring the kitchen
and bathroom with other
families.
Other similar comparisons
could be made. But what is
more important to the vast
majority of Russians is that a
big housing construction pro
gram at last has begun and
that a plan to spread consum
er goods and services is in the
works.
What is more important to
them is that the sputniks and
the Soviet artificial planets
are there, for all the world to
marvel at, and that Soviet in
dustry at last has produced
some industrial machinery
that is ahead of America's.
Living to the drumbeat of
The Plan ("Outstrip America
in 14 years," says Premier Ni
kita S. Khrushchev) the shab
biness and the queueing-up
and the burdens of today be
come something transitory
and almost irrelevant-some-how
less real.
Seen in that spirit, the So
viet Fair in New York must
be, as President Eisenhower
said a "remarkable exhibit."
