Castro sLack of Statesmanship
It is becoming more and more evident that
Fidel Castro does not have the ability nor the
statesmanship to surround himself with men of
ability, nor to make the difficult changeover from
revolution to stable government.
- That there should be dissatisfied persons,
sniping and sporadic fighting against the revolu
tionary regime is no surprise. The Batista dicta
torship should have been overthrown, but it
should have been overthrown for something bet
ter. ASTRO has shown a disappointing lack of
administrative ability and understanding of
economics.

Castro has gone about the whole process as if
all that was needed was a decree and an' im
passioned appeal to make things work. -.

travel business, he has scared out all foreign in

are working, so that goods are being produced, so
that commerce and investment are protected.'
It is to the best interests of the. United States
that we have a democratic, prosperous Cuba as

has been unable to implement them. Perhaps
these recent attacks will wake him up to the facts

Senator Gives Background of
Seashore Dunes Park Proposal
- " ' By -RICHARD
L. NEUBERGER
U. S. Senator from Oregon
Early this year the National
Park Service published a re
port entitled 'Pacific Coast
Recreation Area Survey." The
survey, conducted by " the
Park Service in 1957-58, ident
fied the Oregon Dunes areas
as one of the finest relatively
undeveloped natural areas on
the Pacific coast.
- - Additional studies showed
that the Dunes area is of na
tional significance because of
its extraordinary combination
of scenic, scientific and other
recreation values. Subseqeunt
ly the National Parks Ad
visory Board, whose members
were appointed by Interior
Secretaries Douglas McKay
and Frea A. Seaton, designat
ed the Oregon Dunes area as
suitable for inclusion in the
National Park System. Ore
gon Dunes was the only area
on the entire Pacific coast
so designated by the Advisory
Board.
Three Bills
I am the sponsor of three
bills in the United States Sen
ate any one of which," if en
acted, would provide congres
sional approval without which
the Federal seashore program
cannot proceed. Many citizens
of Oregon are unfamiliar with
the exact nature of the Ore
gon Dunes seashore proposal.
Here are some of the salient
facts: ,
As presenUy proposed the
park would consist of two sep
arate areas, a north unit and
a south unit. The north unit
embraces the Sea Lion Caves
10 miles north of Florence.
It will consist of 340 acres of
land, one mile in length along
the seacoast. The south unit
will stretch about 23 miles
along the coast from Florence
to Reedsport and embraces
about 32,000 acres of ocean
beaches, shifting dunes, for
ests and freshwater lakes all
of which combine to make
the area one of outstanding
national significance.
Public Ownership
Over half of the property
in the larger south unit is in
public ownership, mostly un
der the U.S. Forest Service
About half of the land area
of the smaller north unit also
consists of National Forest
lands. The State of Oregon

tion of an Oregon Dunes na
tional seashore area.)
Would Acquire Lands
If Congress approves the
Oregon Dunes national sea
shore proposal the National
Park Service, under whose
jurisdiction the area would
be administered, would, over
a period of several years, ac
quire private lands for park
purposes. Time is critical.
Property can be purchased to
day with relatively; little or
no disruption to local resi
dents and at relatively nomin
al cost. A decade or two from
now costs could be prohibi
tively high and the unexcelled
characteristics which warrant
national Status destroyed. Na

ed, can never again be re
trieved. - Federal acquisition of priv
ate land is conducted through
direct negotiation with land
owners based upon fair mar-,
ket value appraisals "by quali
fied non-Federal appraisers.
Every effort will be made to;
reach , amicable agreements
with, owners for acquisition
of their . property. In any
event, property cannot be ac
quired against an owner's will
without due process of law
which, if the owner desires,
could include a fair price de
termination by a jury.
Occupancy Rights
In the case of acquisition
of dwellings, former owners
will have the right to occupy
their homes for the remainder
of their lives Where com
mercial properties are acquir
ed, those required to serve
park visitors would be con
tinued in operation and origin
al owners would be in a fav
ored position to negotiate con
cession contracts. Where the
property tax base of any
school district is reduced sig
nificantly by Federal acquisi
tion of private property, the
Federal . government will
make payments which are de
signed to maintain revenues
at the level which would pre
vail if no property had been
acquired.
It has not been decided if
fees will be charged for use
of the park's facilities. Tree

Values Are 'Basis
The extraordinary scenic
and recreation values of the
Oregon Dunes area are the has moved up from the foot
basis for concluding that itjto very near the head of the
should be made a part of
America's renowned Nation -
al Park .System. There is,
however, additional justifica
tion. The most important eco
nomic enterprise in the Ore
gon Dunes area and the third
most important 2 industry in
Oregon, today is recreation
and tourism.. Anticipated ex
pansion in population income
and leisure time will increase
the demand for recreational
facilities enormously in fu
ture years.
An economic report by the
Park Service, in consultation
with Dr. J. Granville Jensen,
Chairman of the Department
of Natural Resources at Ore
gon. State College states there
will be twice as many visitors
to the area in 25 years. with
the park than without it and
tourists will spend three times
more money- in the area .if
the park is established than
they would if there is no na
tional park. Failure to estab
lish a national seashore will
cost the Florence-Reedsport
area an estimated $18 million
each year in. lost income by
1990. Fthuermore, it is valid
to assume that a national sea
shore area . would result in
substantial increases in the
value of surrounding proper
ty. Outstanding Area ;
Recreation resource experts
contend that ho other area on
the entire Pacific coast posses
ses such outstanding seashore
park characteristics to a com
parable degree as are found
at Oregon Dunes. To permit
a variety of antagonistic and
unrelated uses within the area
would tend to reduce its
character and benefits to med
iocrity. The area will almost
surely deteriorate from inat
tention or haphazard exploi
tation. On the ot her hand, creation
of a national seashore 'area
at Oregon Dunes would be
accompanied by considerable
publicity and heraldry. It
would not only attract more
tourists to our state to stimu
late economic expansion, but
would provide assurance that
a magnificent section of the
Oregon seacoast "will be pre
served as a sanctuary for fu
ture generations where na
ture's grandeur will be pro
tected for all time. . -

Washington Report
By WILLIAM
Soldier vs. Politician '
Washington - The weakest
member of the Big Three,
France, is exercising an in-
crea singly
f powerful veto
over the Uni
States and
Great Britain.
Though
Washin g t o n
and London
are amiably
fuzzing it
over, the fact
is that French
Charles - DeGaulle
AUied toble'
r He na Pt a brake on the
movement for; an early sum
mit conference. This Prime
Minister Harold Macmillan of
Britain has urgently wanted,
and this President Eisenhow
er had wanted at least half
way urgently. .
DeGaulle, indeed, has taken
over - just - the . positipn Mr,
Eisenhower himself used to
maintain. His view is that it
is no good negotiating at the
summit until the Russians!
show some willingness to ease
the cold war down at the level
of day-to-day reality. , .
THE REVIVAL of France's
own old notions of France's
"grandeur" was De Gaulle's
first achievement and a fine
one, at that. This was a tri
umph of mind (DeGaulle's
mind) over matter. Somehow
he convinced the French that
France was what it really, is
not, a great power in the mo
dern world.
But DeGaulle's second
achievement is simply incred
ible. He has pumped up this
absent power into a genuine
power within the Western al
liance. Until very lately the
White House had been quietly
criticizing Macmillan for be
ing insensitive to DeGaulle's
ideas of his proper place.
President Eisenhower, as an
'old comrade in arms," would
soon put all this aright, it was
said. For he, at any rate, knew
how to; get on with DeGaulle
and so to put the summit
meeting on the track..
These dreams, now lie in
ill - hidden wreckage. The
French "old comrade in arms"
has not been deeply moved.
He still wants the Russians
to show some of those "deeds,
not words" which we our
selves used to c?U the abso
lute pre - conditions to true
cold war negotiations.
A LL THIS is fine for
all
t. who had feared that under
Macmillan's drive and Eisen
hower's concurrence we were
panting up to the summit
without adequate preparation
among ourselves. But there
is also a very bad side to it.
It is this: when DeGaulle came
to power, with his lifelong
tradition of military service,
the whole West feared he was
far too "military" ever to be
a good political leader.
But just the reverse has
turned out. He is a spectacu
lar success as a politician. But
he is showing himself to be
considerably less than the best
military man in the world, in
modern terms. It may be said
on thoroughly responsible au
thority that he is causing
grave anxiety among all the
top Western military men.
What he does about a politi
cal summit meeting is neither
their business nor their con
cern. But what he won't do

Restless Politicians:
Indonesia's major political
parties, dissatisfied with the
increasing restrictions im
posed by the government and
the army, will campaign hard
for lifting the country's state
of emergency law. The Com
munists will lead the cam
paign. But the politicians are
not likely to succeed. The
Army draws much of its pow
er from the emergency situa
tion law which was adopted
in 1957 and extended last
year for one year. It is sched
uled for another -extension in
December.
S. WHITE
about the military facts of
life is, as the saying goes,
driving them "nearly crazy."
He wants the whole free
world to concert its every
strategy military, economic,
political into a kind of ball
of wax of the most extreme
internationalism.
TTNDER his Dlan no free
nation anywhere could use
an atomic weapon, for ex
ample, even across the world
from France, without France's
prior consent. - But at the very
same time he is promoting an
extreme nationalism within
France itself. He has even
insisted that the allied forces
should not send aircraft aloft
to defend France itself with
out waiting for a French com
mand to take off. -
His military thinking is
competently described as not
merely of World War II vint
age. Worse yet, it is said, he
"really goes back to 1914.
And he will not spare so much
as 20 minutes for any brief
ing from Supreme Allied
Headquarters as to the 1959
realities of warfare. .
The man who was supposed
to be a classical "brass hat'
and a hopeless politician' has
become the ablest of politi
cians but hardly the wisest of
brass hats. ' Perhaps, . there
fore, the American "old com
rade in arms," General Eisen
hower, would have better luck
in trying to bring DeGaulle
abreast of modern military
facts than in persuading him
about the summit conference.

Why All the Fuss? "
To the Editor: Why all the
fuss about a kindergarten?
This question is heard often in
Medford, as Junior Service -League
members sell tickets
to a fashion show, a Follies, or
a house tour, to raise money
to maintain their kindergar
ten. But this is not an ordin
ary kindergarten, and it is
worth all the fuss to those
who know about it. .
This is a kindergarten, for
children who are hard-of-hear-ing
or have speech problems.
There are only three such spe
cial kindergartens on the en
tire West Coast. Here in Med-,
ford,, children who suffer
from those handicaps are
taught to speak, so that they
can take their places in a
speaking world. This training
takes several years of pains
taking practice, and it is urg
ent that the children learn
when they are very young. It
is too late to wait until they
are old enough for first grade.
On Thursday morning, Oc
tober 29, the kindergarten
will have open house from 10
to 12. It will not be a party
just an opportunity for those
who are interested in the
teaching being done there to
visit while the children are at
work and at play. Come and
see how your money is being
spent, and why all the fuss!
You will buy tickets to the
Follies and other events with
enthusiasm and understand
ing ever after.
