Is This Your Dish?
"The Footlighters" is a little theater group.
It is not a very successful littlo theater group.
But then, few such organizations are fabulously
successful. Few of them have (as the Footlighters
do) their own building. Many of them are born,
struggle along for a while, fade away, and then,
as some new and vigorous personality puts forth
effort, are reborn.
The problems of such organizations are not
hard to find. -.
An adequate number" of talented amateur
thespians is difficult to come by. Directoral skill
is even more scarce.
And, while the chief attraction is in acting,
each theater needs steady, reliable people to do
the endless behind-the-scenes chores required in
each production.
THERE are other factors, too.
For instance, in a small group of this nature,
largely involved in dramatic endeavors, tempera
ments and personalities are bound to cause con
flicts and jealousies.
Mix all these difficulties into one pot, stir
well, season with chronic lack of funds and lim
ited public support, and the wonder is that ANY
little theater, ANYwhere, ever survives at all.
But survive they do.

And there is a never
as to how their problems can be ameliorated.
IN THIS search, the local daily newspaper fre
quently is called upon, for publicity, for re
views, for editorial support.
This, more often than not, is forthcoming.
For such a community theatrical effort is a
worthwhile thing for any community to have. It
vert orms a valued public service. It oilers an
outlet to those with theatrical bent. And, in many
cases, it offers genuine entertainment.
So much for preliminaries. Now for a few
specifics. v

Down With "Culture "
The word "Culture" (with a capital "C"
please) scares some people.
It arouses connotations of. long-haired affi
cionados of classical music listening with eyes
closed. Or of bearded artists spiasnmg paint on
a daubed canvas. Or of a bookish pedant buried
between the covers of some obscure volume. And
so on.
The theater, opera,
seums, concerts, universities, study ana discus
sion groups these all at one time or another
have been lumped together as "Culture," and,
through a process of a distorted or inverted snob

SOME GUESSWORK
The time schedule of the
visits-the President's to West
ern Europe and Mr. Khru-
shchevs to
this country
show that
both visits are
almost certain
to be sketchy,
and fpr
the most part
concerned
with generali
ties. It "is evir
rwsvu
WalUr
Lippmann
dent that there will not be
nearly enough time for the
President to negotiate under
standings which will remove
the strains and stresses with
in the Western alliance. And,
while Mr. Khrushchev is
spending five days at Washing
ton, it would be a surprise if
from the discussions emerged
any concrete proposition
which, if agreed to by the Al
lies, would decide and settle
any big issue. Whatever may
be the virtues of meetings at
the summit, they are not like
ly to accomplish "in a few days
what normal diplomacy can
not accomplish in many
months.
In affairs of this sort the
usual device is to take the
curse off the inconclusive gen
erajties by a procedural deci
sion as to how and when and
where to continue the discus
sions later on. The President
and Mr. K. can talk quite a
lot about talking again-when
the President goes to Moscow,
if they are to talk at the sum
mit, about talking at another
Foreign Ministers' meeting,
about talking in a disarma
ment commission, and at the
United Nations. Thus, without
succeeding, they can avoid a'
failure. -
FMAY sound like it but I
do not think that this is a
cynical view. It is,-1 admit a
deflated view. It rests on an
estimate, which may of course
be mistaken, of the situation
of the two contending alli
ances. I do not believe that this
situation can or will be
changed significantly by Mr,
K's personal impressions in
this, country. Very many of
our people take an inflated
view. They talk as if they
were fascinated with the hope
and the belief that Mr. K. win'
change Soviet policy because
of what he sees during his
visit to this country. Jt is an
illusion to think, so it seems
to me, that he will be over
awed by American material
achievements, beguiled by
American hospitality. What
will inter est. him most, I ven
ture to guess, is to judge for
himself in bis official con
tacts what are the levers of
power ani decision in the
American government and in
American society.
In the situation itself, there
is not in either coalition any
pressing and urgent need for
a settlement of the cold war
over Germany. The partition
of Germany is regarded on
both sides as not intolerable
and, on the wjiole, preferable
to reunification under any
conditions that are theoreti
cally possible. For the U. S.
S. R. the only trouble with the
status quo is in West Berlin,
which is a thorn in the flesh
of the East German state. The
partition suits Poland and
Czechoslovakia who are afraid
of a united Germany and its
inevitable territorial demands
upon them..
It is very probable that Mr.
K. will be looking for some
sort of modus Vivendi about
West Berlin which he can per
suade the East German Com
munist leaders to accept. --
IN OUR r Western coalition,
the existing situation,
which means the partition of
Germany, is not only not in
tolerable to any of the lead
ing governments, it is, in fact,
better than any alternative.
On - this crucial subject no
Menace

Lippmann
Western government feels it
can be candid. There are, to
be sure, public men in every
Western country who sincere
ly want reunification because
they believe that in the long
run the divided Germans will
be unhappy and dangerous
But the leading forces now
within the Western govern
ments wish to keep things as
they are with Germany divid
ed, and while they pay lip
service to reunification, they
know that with the terms they
lay down, there is no danger
of reunification actually tak
ing place.
France and Great Britain
prefer the partition of Ger
many because they both fear
the economic and political
power of a united Germany,
Moreover, France.. and Ade
nauer's Germany 1 are both
committed to - an economic
union of six continental allies
which, while now it has pow
erful economic, interests, be
hind it, is also a great politi
cal venture. They think they
are creating a new political
power, which not only ends
forever the Franco German
quarrel but establishes a new
great power which is to be
the equal of the Soviet Union
or the United States, and is
to . leave Great Britain in the
position of being a big off
shore island. This political
venture is not likely to suc
ceed if the 17,000,000 East
Germans are united in the
same electorate with the West
Germans. For they are pre
dominately Protestant and So
cialist, and in a united Ger
many this would mean the
downfall of the Catholic and
conservative regime of Ade
nauer. THE movement toward Franco-German
unity, which is
full of crusading zeal, is a
very deep and very powerful,
though not an avowed oppo
nent of All-German unity.
Thus, after 14 years the Great
Powers have not only become
used to German partition,
they have acquired very
strong vested interests in con
tinuing the partition.
This is true also of the Unit
ed States. The geography of
Western Germany and the
prospect of German armed
forces has become an indis
pensable part of the whole
military policy and position
which NATO represents. A
united Germany is inconceiv
able without a radical disturb
ance of NATO, and this fact
is not without its influence
on what we think about the
reunification of Germany.
Not only is there no press
ing and urgent need on either
side for a settlement of the
cold war in Europe, there is
also on both sides, but for
separate and complicated rea
sons, a desire to avoid a show
down and to play for time.
The U. S. S. R. says openly
and frequently that it wants
seven to ten years of peace
and a relief of tension in or
der to carry out its program
o f economic development.
There is no good reason to
doubt that this is true.
THE West also has its rea
sons for avoiding a show
down and playing for time.
Showdowns are not only
nerve-wracking in themselves
but nobody can be quite sure
what a showdown would
show. There are other reasons
why the West wants time-to
catch up in the race of arma
ments, to "promote the boom
ing economy of the Western
world, to work its way
through the transitional peri-od-which
is the present-between
the old colonial lystem
and the new independent
states of Asia and Africa.
All of this leads me to
think that the statesmen will
make no dramatic settlements
but that for good and suffi
cient reasons they will go on
talking with each other.

Ban Due to Fear of Chinese
By K. C. THALER
London - (DPD - Hifih allied

stepped-up pressure for a nu

out of the exclusive nuclear
club.
There is eood reason to be

Red China, pushing deter

A nuclear test ban, until

were completed, it would in

ready building up pressure on
France to desist from her plan
to explode - her first atom
bomb in the Sahara.
Red China, which has been
vociferous in the past in en
dorsing Russia's call for a nu
clear test ban, would find it
difficult to go ahead once a
test ban accord is reached.
- Since no new power would
thus be ; able to test atomic
weapons without encounter

try could acquire them in the
future through its own efforts,
China would remain perma
nently dependent for the use
of nuclear weapons on Rus

the Kremlin appears to be
aiming at.

formally mentioned, but it is
held to be among the funda

Complaint Investigated
To the Editor: As a volun
teer social welfare worker for
the American Red Cross, I
was disturbed by Mrs. Dusen
berry's letter to the paper
last night regarding help re
fused a mother with six chil
dren, and decided to investi
gate the source of her infor
mation, as at no time was Red
Cross contacted td assist this
family. .
Investigation proved that
the Jackson county public wel
fare commission had offered
to make arrangements to send
the mother and her six chil
dren by rail or airplane back
to her home in Kansas City,
Mo., where, as a legal resi
dent, she would have been
entitled to financial assistance
and free medical care. This
offer was made several times,
and interim help was offered
while arrangements were be
ing made, but the mother re
fused to go Home. It was then
understood that she had ob
tained a job baby-sitting as
payment for rent, and that a
small church was providing
groceries.
Neither the Salvation Army
nor the Red Cross are pro
vided with funds to give long
term assistance to residents
of other states, but emergency
relief to worthy needy is given
by both organizations.

By FRANK
From staid old England:
"Locomotive drivers (we
call them engineers on this)
side of the big water) report
a new game among the
youngsters of the town of
Bootle. They line up along
the track, put their HEADS
ON THE RAILS and issue
challenges to each other to see
who will stay there longest.
An official of the state-operated
railroad - system says
drivers are getting so nervous
over this practice that many
of them refuse to operate
trains anywhere near Bootle."
JJMMMMMMM.
I suppose that will be in
terpreted widely as further
evidence that in this day and
age the younger generation
not only in our own country
but elsewhere in the world
is going, hog-wild and unpre
dictable. j wonder!
Thumbing back through
memory's album, I recall a
game that was current more
decades ago than I care to
confess in a quiet, predomin
antly agricultural neighbor
hood back in the Mississippi
valley.
It went like this:
With a .group of your com
panions, you climbed a tall
haystack. You then dared
each other to see who could
jump closest (landing belly
buster) to the edge of the
stack WITHOUT GOING
OVER.
If you went over, as you
sometimes did, you could
break your neck, but gener
ally you just got the breath
knocked out of you-in which
event everybody came down
from the haystack and pound
ed you on the back until you
could get your breath again.
AFTER all, laying your head
on a railroad track and
trusting to luck that the en
gineer will see you and pun
his train to a screaming stop
isn't much sillier than seeing
who can jump closest to the

Quality DAIRY FOODS
Public inertia to the Drob-
lem has increased through low
incidence years in 1956, 1957
and 1958. For instance the
March of Dimes in 1958 raised
a total of $489,148. In 1959,
March of Dimes revenue drop
ped to $366,147.09. I feel that
a large part of this drop is
a result of negative publicity
led by the uninformed pres
sure groups last January in
which statements such as
"Polio is whipped" and 'The

Russia's assistant. Western in
telligence believes that, apart
from the supply by the Soviet
of atomic reactors, the Chi

own devices in this crucial
field.
Some suggestions have put
forward 1960 as the possible
date for the first Red Chinese
nuclear atom bomb explosion.
Hence, the Western diplomats
believe Russia's pressure for
a test ban this year to beat
the deadline.

The engineer will be pretty
likely to see you and slow
down, and if he doesn't you
can pull your head back in
the remaining second. When
you start, head first over the
edge of a haystack there isn't
anybody there to yank you
back to safety.
Anyway, I can't help think
ing that today's younger gen
eration isn't any wilder or
woollier than the younger
generations of bygone days.
Maybe they just get into the

In 1958, 91,000 persons
were killed in America and
nine million others were dis

accidents.
That's bad.
But listen.
Last year's accidental
deaths -on the highway and
elsewhere amounted to 52.5
fatal accidents per 100,000 of
population.
In 1923, 35 years earlier,
there were 77.4 accidental

The fact that a large part
of this drop was in Multno
mah - Clackamas - Washington
counties area - actually $73,
408.10 of the total state drop
of $123,000.91 - would lead
me to believe that since the
attack originated in Portland
this area was most strongly
affected.
Problems Result
Now we are confronted
with the problem of provid
ing funds to keep iron lungs
running, ship them to hospi
tals where patients await
their breath-bringing assist
ance, and rendering other fi
nancial assistance to patients
faced by the pauperizing costs
of overcoming the effects of
this disease.
Our total needs in the eight
counties amount to about $50,
000. So these counties are now
running special campaigns
scheduled to terminate by
sept. l. The counties most
seriously affected by the
squeeze of increased polio and
diminished March of Dimes
money are Washington, Clack
amas, Benton, Lmn, Lane,
Deschutes, Wallowa and Jo
sephine. All of the income will
be kept in their county for
polio patient aid alone. ,
There is no correlation be
tween the cost of polio in a
given county and the money
that can be raised there
therefore, Clackamas county
has spent 123 percent of all
it has ever raised on local pa
tients, a total of $362,045.54
up to Dec. 31, 1958. Josephine
county has spent almost 100
percent. Others are less, but
similarly affected.
As state March of Dimes
chairman, I am. in the posi
tion of being forced to ask
for help - and with the great
est urgency.
Last year we cared for 46
"1958" patients on chapter
rolls plus 271 "old" patients
still receiving help in the way
of home attendants, nursing
home care, braces, operation
and other patient aid expendi
tures. On the "active" lists of
our 36 county chapters at this
time 300 patients are shown,
not counting new patients.
The situation can only wors
en with the current increase
in paralytic polio cases. The
most we can do is a feeble
thing unless we have public
understanding of this problem
and this after all is the respon
sibility of public media.
Ojur problem in financing
the recovery of these people
from the ravages of the dis
ease is paralleled only by our
