is said that watching an Atlas
missile blast off its pad, or a

anybody, even one of us na
tives if we could get security
clearance to see it.
Ike's Ideas Listed
President Eisenhower said
he wants Khrushchev to see
ordinary homes, maybe those
at Levittown, Pa.; a view of
the Washington area from
Jke'sTielicopter; farm country;,
and Ike's boyhood home of
Abilene, Kan., where he said
he can prove how hard he
worked as a youth.
Nothing much is firm ' yet
on which invitations Khru
shchev will accept. Meantime
they arrive in each mail. Am
bassador Mikhail Menshikov
says the Russian embassy is
considering "hundreds'' al
ready in hand. Some 150 in
vitation's have reached the
State, Department, ..for consid
eration and relay if desired.
Khrushchev has expressed
an interest in Washington,
New York, Chicago, San Fran
cisco; a corn farm at Coon
Rapifis, Iowa; Florida; a plas
tics plant. He also wants to
go on TV, but no decision has
been reached on who ought to
get equal time. -Moscow,
Idaho Makes Claim
Moscow, Idaho, wants in on
the schedule. So do a whole
batch of cities with not near
so. good an excuse. All Los
Angeles wants is the Democra
tic National Convention next
year.' . "
The National Coal associa
tion thinks an old miner like
Khrushchev may want to go
underground while he's here.
It is offering a nice choice of
mines for his visit. A Detroit
salt mine has been made avail
able by the International Salt
company, in case he would
feel more at home there.
Tyler, Tex., has asked the
State Department " to invite
Khrushchev to visit Van Cli
burn, the pianist who wowed
music lovers in Moscow' at
Tyler, "the epitome of small
town America." Well, not
quite the epitome. There's Kil
gore, Tex., about 30, miles
away, where Cliburn actually
lives. According . to . Tyler
folks, Kilgore is too small to
accommodate K h r u shchev's
big party.

Now all the guess-work's gone when you buy chicken. A new Oregon

indicating where the chicken was grown." This makes it a simple
matter now to identify real freshness. The label, "This Fryer Grown
in Oregon," is your guarantee of the finest, freshest fryers grown.
Oregon-Grown fryers are "miles fresher" when you buy 'em "Days

MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE
From the Salem Statesman:
"To counter the tale of
death and destruction which
visited Roseburg last Friday
morning come reports of the
magnificent response of pub
lic agencies and private cit
izens to administrator relief
and organize for recovery.
"Particularly noteworthy
was the cooperation among
all organizations. The law en
forcement bodies sprang
qliickly to action: the sheriff
and his reserves, the mayor
and city police, the National
Guarid quickly in uniform to
prevent looting, the civil de
fense organization set up for
just such an emergency, the
American Red Cross, hospitals
and doctors and nurses, and
quickly state officials arrived.
Excellent coordination is re
ported, with no rivalry for
command; instead a rivalry
for bringing succor to the
stricken and containing the
fires spread by the explosion.
' "It is good proof of the
ability of the American peo
ple to rise to a crisis, combin
ing initiative and courage and
diligence with a spirit of cooperation."

THAT suggests a subject of
the utmost importance
Mr. K's impending ' visit to
the United States.
What will he see? ,
What should he be allowed
to see?
What conclusion will he
draw from what he DOES see?
There is the steel strike, for
example which has prac
ticaly closed down America's
huge steel industry, which is
fundamental to America's de
fense. It can't help ocurring
to him .that a strike of such
magnitude is a sign of weak
ness. It wil probably occure
to his crafty mind that if he
could COMMUNIZE enough
key people here he could call
a strike at the exact moment
when he was ready to attack
us.
PUT-
If we're to gain anything
out of his visit,' we mustn't
tell him what he CAN see and
what he CAN'T. That would
give him the impression that
we are weak and know it and
don't want him to see how
weak we are. That would
spoil the whole thing.
So
Let's let him see us AS WE
ARE.
Let's let him know we
think we're good- enough to
be ,seen by ANYBODY,
friend or enemy.
A FINAL thought suggest
ed by the Statesman's dis
criminating and understand
ing -comment:
I wish Mr. K could have
seen the city of Roseburg in
its hour of travail ' and trag
edy. The quick and effective
cooperation in the face of
stark catastrophe. The forget
fulness of self. The city po
liceman who stood fast and
died . fighting the creeping
line of flame that might have
got away and made a holo
caust of the already explosion-shattered
city. The peo
ple who dashed into the cor
tex of destruction to do what
they could to help, instead
of running the other way to
save their twn lives.
IF MR. K who is RUSSIA
could have seen all that
with' his own eyes he couldn't
have escaped the conclusion
that these Americans may
talk tommyrot in their hours
of ease, but' in the pinches
THEY ARE INDOMITABLE.
garian refugees, can get by
without a visit from Khru
shchev. But a Cleveland rock
'n' roll enthusiast has cabled
Moscow direct inviting Khru
shchev to dig a record hop
there Sept. 14.
A Dayton, Ohio, radio sta
tion has asked the Soviet pre
mier to drop in to edit and
supervise one of its newscasts.
The American Automobile as
sociation here wants him to
inspect Washington's Express
way system. Local drivers are
for this but wonder how it's
going to get built in a month.
Protocol experts say one
thing Khrushchev has to see
first thing when he gets off
the plane, is about 1,500 ham
mers and sickles, adorning the
local light poles. We fly na
tional emblems for all visiting
big shots.
The Washington Daily News
meantime has urged all of us
to be calm. Let the super
markets handle Khrushchev's
visit, the News said in an edi
torial. They've had more ex
perience. Onlv about 30 ter cent of
all Americans see efficiently !

FALSE TEETH
That Loosen
Need Not Embarrass
Many wearers of false teeth hav
suffered real embarrassment because
their plate dropped, slipped or wob
bled at just the wrong time. Do not
uve in fear of this happening to you.
Just sprinkle a little FASTEETH, the
alkaline (non-acid) powder, on your
plates. Hold false teeth more firmly,
so they feel more comfortable. Does
not sour. Checks "plate odor" (den
ture breath). Get FASTEETH at anj
Irug counter.
