NUDIST FILMS DULL
London-fflPlJ-High Anglican

but suggested that a church

Likely He'll Live
A reader who knows of this newspaper's tra
ditional opposition to capital punishment asks a
question. "How do you feel now?" he asks,
"Don't you think the fiend who killed that little
girl up in Washington ought to.be sent to the
gas chamber?" . . .
The answer, ignoring the fact that Washing
ton kills its folks by hanging instead of by gas,
is, "Maybe so." But the gnm fact is that the
"fiend," when they catch him, probably won't be
executed.
Instead, the state of Washington, like the state'
of Oregon, is more likely to execute some stumble
bum who is not nearly so dangerous to society
as the person who raped and murdered little
Sherry Edgell, age 9.
THERE, as here and elsewhere, the really un-
x desirable person the defective delinquent,
the psychotic murder, the psychotic with a high
potential for murder is more likely shipped off
to a state hospital where his head is examined.
That's what happened in Kentucky a few years
ago. The man was discharged and came to Ore
gon, where, last winter, he murdered a restaurant
operator at Oakridge.
In Washington, as here and elsewhere, few
men have been executed if they could afford
expert legal counsel. There, as here, capital pun
ishment is reserved for the relatively indigent.
There, as here, a lot will depend upon the mood
of a certain jury and the attitude of a certain
judge.
The convicted criminal will be at the mercy
of factors quite beyond his control. He'll learn
that it's "the luck of the draw" whether he's ex
ecuted or not.
..
riTHER we're too civilized or we're not civil-
ized enough. We don't exterminate the unde
sirables saveo in rare cases. There seems to be no
logical pattern for the way the state employs its
power to kill off its criminals.
So we shall continue to oppose capital pun
ishment until the far-off day that the state re
thinks its position and begins looking to the crim
inal's probable future instead, of toward a fleet
ing moment in his past.
Not Venus Again!
The mystery of the "flying saucers" report
ed in Redmond and in Bend recently appears to
to have been solved. .
When the first "saucer" appeared, it attract
ed attention over the entire west. On that oc
casion the object was spotted in the dawn heav
ens. It appeared to be moving. Yet it was observ
ed over a period of an hour.
Last bunday, a number of Redmond residents
joined in a "flying saucer party." Present were
news people, a photographer, police and a rep
resentative of the FFA. They viewed a bright
oDject in tne east.
. -
'HEN came a Bend radio broadcast with a
youngster interviewed who had reportedly
sighted a saucer-like object low in the south in
the late, evening. :
In Kedmond,:Boyd A.
airways technical field office,- who also " super
vises operation of an IGY auroral camera, came
up with a solution that appears feasible: ; ' ;
ine UFO s are planets.
He advanced the theory after definitely de
termining that the object spotted in Redmond
bunday morning was the brilliant planet Venus.
There is a strong possibility that the object seen
earlier, on Thursday morning at about the same
hour, was also Venus, apparently drifting through
low clouds. Actually, in such cases the "drift" is
caused by the movement of the clouds, not the
bright object beyond.
IT IS true that radar tracked some object Thurs
1 day morning. But that could have been some
other earthly UFO, not Venus, which at present
is snmA fiK rnillirm tViiIpq rHstanf

"flying saucers" were observed? - -

Mrs. Mentzer, board chair

when it is necessary to set up
a- library board policy. The

MACMILLAN AND :
GAITSKELL
Washington The British
election campaign now draw
ing to the end is, of course, a
good deal
more than a
contest be
tween, a Con
servative Tweedledee in
Prime Minis
ter Harold
Macmil lan
and a Labor
ite Tweeddle
dum in Hugh
Gaitskell.
Nevertheless, the vital point
for Americans is that no mat
ter which party wins, the long
and useful American-British
partnership in the world will
go on largely unchanged.
The differences between
Macmillan's party and Gaits
kell's party are real, right
enough. They are, however,
mainly over domestic policy.
(And even here not every di
vision is one of principle so
much as of : emphasis and
method.)
As to the thing which most
interests us in the United
States, .basic " foreign" policy,
the Tory Macmillan and the
"Socialist" Gaitskell are not
farther apart, r ;ally, than the
span of a large hand. British
"socialism" by the prevailing
American standards may be
terrifyingly unkind toward
certain kinds of private prop
erty in England. .
i-- '
BUT GaitskeU socialism, un-
den variety kf the world 'at
large, has no undue, crippling
attachment to pacifism. Gait
skeU socialism-and this is the
wholly dominant variety in
England now-is strictly pro-
West and pro Western alli
ance, v It believes about as
much in force, when only
force will do, as does Mac
millan conservatism.
The great bulk of labor in
Britain is a-ithentically, and
even especially, anti-Communist.
Labor has always had a
special awareress of commu
nism's danger to aU free
movements, including free
unions. Actually, the "tough
est" foreign minister Britain
has had in the postwar period
was the late Ernest Bevin,
who was to a Labor govern
ment. .
As far, back as 1946,. while
we herer were still desperate
ly trying to "get along" with
the Soviet, Union it was
Laborite Bevin who ' had the
Russians' number. -

AT the 1946 Big Three con
ference over Trieste in
New York, our conservative
Secretary of ftate, James F.
Byrnes, was going all-out to
placate Soviet Foreign Min
ister Viacheslav Molotov.
When a tough Western line
simply had to be taken it
was - "good ole Ernie" who
came in to carry the ball.
And it was "Ernie" whom
Molotov, with the jugular in
stinct of the old Bolshevik,
instantly singled out as his
one great enemy.
He pushed and stabbed
savagely and endlessly at Be
vin until at last the tough
little Briton had had enough.
One day, after an unusually
bitter taunt from Molotov,
Bevin replied to him with
soft distinctness: "I have the
honor, Mr. Molotov, to repre
sent a government that AL
WAYS fought Hitler."
Molotov, for the first time
in the conference, was speech
less. For it was he who had
helped arrange the infamous
Hitler-Stalin pact that for a
time had left Britain alone
in the field against the Nazis
TF there is any real present
distinction between the two
British narties on world af
fairs it probably lies, if some
what vaguely, in the field
of world trade.
Both Macmillan and Gait
skell thoroughly understand
this matter in the academic
sense. But from some slight
acquaintance with both lead
ers, this correspondent would
say that Gaitskell understands
it with his mind whereas Mac
miiian grasps it both with his
mind and his deepest, visceral
awareness.
This, on the whole, would
appear to be one election in
which the free world will be
no loser no matter which man
wins: the slim, elegant, rather
laconic Macmillan or the
shorter, plumpish, highly arti
culate and civilized Gaitskell.

mary of tne
3 situation in

Laos c o m e s
from a high
American au
thority. It ap
pears to be

Jof-ph Alsop
substantiated by the current
news. The Laotian army has
now retaken large chunks of
the territoryl along the north
ern border which was lost at
the end of August when ad
ditional Communist battalions
were sent onto., Laos. : Many
of the border-crossers also ap
pear, to' have retreated again
into North Vietnam, .
This is a good time, there
fore,' to teU a remarkable; un
told story. In brief, the most
likely explanation of the
marked improvement in the
siutation in Laos was a series
of moves by the American
armed forces in the Pacific.
These moves were unannounc
ed to the world. They passed
unnoticed in this country. But
they were most certainly ob
served, as they were meant
to be, by the watchers in the
Kremlin, and in Peking and
Hanoi.
rpHE moment of truth,"
- which produced the Pres
ident's order for these crucial
military movements, occurred
on Sept. 4. The second inva
sion of Laos by special infil
tration battalions organized,
armed, and trained in North
Vietnam had taken place on
Aug. 30. But communications
are non-existent in little Laos.
Hence word of the new in
vasion- took more than 48
hours to reach the command
er of the Laotian army, Genl
Ouane Rathikoune, There was
of course a further delay be
fore the grave news reached
Washington. Time was also
needed to assess its signif
icance. .
Such were the reasons for
the time-gap between the new
invasion and "the moment of
truth." At that moment, on
Sept. 4, orders were sent .to
the CINCPAC, Adm. Harry
D. Felt, to place all his forces,
ground, air, and sea, in a
state of immediate readiness,
and to dispose the 7th Fleet
for possible action to assist in
the defense of Laos. :-
ON SEPT. 5, therefore, all
leaves were being cancel
led on Okinawa' and else
where; and the great 7th Fleet
began streaming grimly and
majestically southwards to
wards the" Giilf pf Tonkin,
There was no bluff iir these
moves either. It was the set
tled policy of the U. S. gov
ernment, agreed between the
President and Secretary of
State Christian A. Herter, to
use force to safeguard the in
tegrity of Laos if this was nec
essary in the last resort.
Meanwhile, of course, the
Laotian government had also
appealed to the United Na
tions; and on Sept. 8, the U.N.
decided to send observers to
investigate the border-crossings.
It is therefore widely
supposed that the Communist
decision to suspend the attack
on Laos was due to this U.N.
action.
: On Sept. 5, however, small
units of the border-crossing
battalions had come within
five miles of Samneua, the
main Laotian army position
in the province most heavily
attacked. It then appeared
that an attack on Samneua
town would develop within a
day or so. Yet on Sept. 7,
Laotian army patrols were
already finding signs of a
pull-back. In short, the lull
in Laos began before the U.N.
acted.
...
BEHIND this story of "the
moment of truth" and its
sequel in the Pacific, there
is another long story of the
American government's earl
ier response to the challenge
in Laos. It is a story of care
ful, methodical, quiet political
action, aimed to bring the
other nations in the South
East Asia Treaty Organization
into line- and to get ready for
the worst in Laos in other
ways.
If the American govern
ment had not got ready for
the worst, one cannot doubt
that the worst would have
happened. There were, and j
are, ample ' Communist - re
serves in North Vietnam to
make the worst happen. But
the probe in Laos was met
with unexpected firmness, on
the spot and in Washington.
It was therefore suspended.
And one can hope that the
probe will not be resumed,
because of the remembered
firm response, plus r the new
atmosphere : created by the
Khrushchev-Eisenhower meet

using the paper after reading

Just after a little thought
on the strange idea of the

16 other practical uses that the
ordinary newspaper has been
adapted to, more or less, dur

probably one of the innova
tions. We do not know of any

The Pound's Work
To the Editor: I was amazed
to read : in the Tribune that
anyone, especially a humane
society, could object to the
work Mr. Joe Taylor has done
in regard ; to finding good
homes- for the . dogs at the
pound. After so many years
when no one was interested in
the deplorable conditions at
the ' pound a few humane
minded' citizens . brou g h t
enough,, pressure- to bear so
that some improvements were
made but it is still far from
what it should be.
Many of the impounded ani
mals , are thoroughbreds but
any of them deserve a chance
to live in . a good home. No
female is given out without
being 'spayed. The money col
lected" for this Is added to a
revolving fund to augment
the small" sum of $200 allowed
Mr.: Taylor by -the county
court, according to your paper.
It; is common knowledge
that?v the. ; Southern Oregon
Humane' society has no facili
ties to care for either dogs or
cats and the animals taken
there are immediately put in
the gas chamber.
Our ; community is large
enough for the operations of
any humane; organization as
this is one activity in Medford
that has been sadly neglected.
As the .fee. charged .for. spay
ing has been increased, so the
number of surplus dogs, and
cats increased. The fact that
an average of over 200 dogs
are destroyed each month at
the county pound is proof of
quietness of the 7th Fleet's
movement made it very much
easier for the other side to
end the probe in, Laos with
out undue loss of face. The
whole episode in fact had a
quite new style a style of
calm and silent resolution
which may perhaps be called
the Herter style.

In the Days News
By FRANK JENKINS
The London Times, assaying
the results of Mr. K's visit to
the United States, offers this
interesting conclusion:
"The net result of it is that
Mr. Khrushchev seems to have
left the image of a man who
genuinely wants peace, but
also of one who is VERY CON
FIDENT and is UNSHAK-
ABLY CONVINCED THAT
HISTORY IS ON HIS SIDE."
That is to say:
He made it very clear dur
ing his visit that HE believes
that over the long pull com
munism will come out ahead,
TF THAT is true -
- If he believes that history
is on his side -
What period of history is he
thinking about? '
CJENATOR Neuberger, in his
- talk to the Klamath Falls
Kiwanis club, offered an inter
esting thought along that line.
He cited the Pelopennesian
war in which Athens and Spar
ta, the ' two great nations of
the . Ancient Greek world,
came finally to grips in a war
of survival.? r .
Sparta WON.
WHY?
" ' Athens,, formerly tough,
became SOFTENED BY LUX
URY. Every Athenian had his
helot. ; (Helots were slaves.)
The helots did all the work.
As time passed, the Antheni-
ans worked less and less. En
joyment of life was their chief
concern. . This period was
known as the Golden Age of
Athens.
The Spartans were a differ
ent breed. They were rough
and tough. The SUPREMACY
OF SPARTA in the small
world of that day was their
ONLY concern.
IT ALL came to a showdown
in the Peloponnesian war
r which.lasted 25 years. '
