The TV Aura With Charles Van Doren's soul-baring con fession to the committee investigating TV quiz phonies yesterday, it becomes evident that the shows were ridden, through and through not with crime, exactly but with equally debilitating temptation and lack of integrity. If any of the 'more noted quiz contestants should have been "above suspicion," it was Van Doren, with his scholar's background, his eminent family name, and his clean-cut look of honesty. That he, too, succumbed is sad. W! ELL, what does one say about the moral turpitude involved Does one cry out against the individuals who let a smooth line and the prospect of a lot of money turn them away from their integrity? Does one assail the networks, the advertising agencies, the sponsors, without whose connivance such events hardly could have been carried out? Does one deplore the great sums of money which are available to throw around, and which are so handy to sway people into the paths that those in charge want them to go? , DERHAPS some of each of these is called for. But the fact that there has been no great public outcry over the "TV scandals," the fact that Americans by and large have tended to shrug their shoulders, indicates to us that 'some thing; else is at fault something; that is both broader and deeper than bility of any of those immediately involved. That is the nature of television itself, and the way in which it has developed over the decade or so that it has become an integral part of 9 out of 10 Amercian households. It seems to us that since television has delib erately chosen to make of itself a world of make believe, the American public doesn't find itself too shocked to find that part of it actually WAS make-believe, even when pretending not to be. THERE are a few exceptions, of course some , of the better news shows and documentaries, the sports events, and so on. But other than those, who can name a pro gram which is not essentially make believe? Some of the make-believe is, of course, of high caliber. But is it make-believe none the less, from the westerns the American version of the fairy story to serious drama. . The fantasy extends to the commercials, too. When one hears that a certain stomach aid "takes care of ALL the acid' one wonders what "takes care of" means. And, if four out of five doctors "recommend the ingredients in . . ", isn't it possible that they recommend aspirin and bi carbonate of soda? And isn't this a phoney? . .. TTELEVISION, it seems to us, is caught in a pattern- of its own making a pattern which leads the average viewer automatically to dis count' the believability.of anything seen on TV. They go to it for entertainment. And if a quiz show gives them entertainment, why should they cry out against it's being "fixed" any more than they cry out against other bits of fantasy? That one program is labled "fiction," or make-believe, tends to blur in the overall impact of the medium, to the point where-it all drama, soap opera, news program, documentary or quiz show partakes of the aura of phoniness, and is regarded accordingly. E.A. And "The Motion pictures, in . contrast to television, have not suffered from a similar fate. For their product, at least, is labled "fiction" to begin with, and while they strive for verisimilitude, they don't attempt to pretend to provide anything more than entertainment, or, in some few cases, a stimulus to the imagination and the mind. The resurgence of the movies the last year or two, may, as a matter of fact, be at least in part the result of an unexpressed but increasing dis content with television. ; IXTE DROPPED in to see "Anatomy of a Mur- der" here the other day, and found it to be first class entertainment. Fiction, of course, but fiction which is based on the facts of human na ture, and .thereby, in a sense, "truer' than a documentary could be. It was a picture intended strictly for adults, for it dealt with a subject, and used words, which are not the usual screen fare, to say the least, and which conscientious parents might not wish their children of tender years to see and hear. For an adult, however, who has a normal vocabulary and a normal sense of perspective, the picture was both good entertainment and a sensitive probing of human nature. H , , FN ROUTE home, the family secretary of health, education and welfare commented that she wouldn't mind the family teen agers seeing the picture IF they were in the company of their parents, but that she hardly could wish them to see it on a date with a contemporary. We agreed, and so apparently does the man agement of the theaters here, who, for pictures such as this, have abolished the "student admis sion" rate, charging an adult price for all. ' It seems to work, too, for there were few if any young people in the house the other evening, except those attending with parents. But, sadly, the movies cannot yet earn a blanket commendation. Not when ."The Blob," "Buiy the Living," and "I Married a Monster From Outer Space" are shown on a triple bill. E.A. in such unsavory events? the individual responsi Movies Dennis the Menace Hl.tWDJ THOUGHT tV WATCH Drummond (Walter Lippman is again reports from Washington in his absence.) CAMPAIGN QUIZ SHOWS Washington-It seems to me there are two more things which need to be said about the TV quiz show scandals before Congress wraps up its remarkably effective investi gation and says to the net' works: Glean house, or else! One is commendation. The other is a friendly warning to the politicians. Dr. Frank Stanton, presi dent of CBS, deserves to be commended for instantly sensing that the rigged per formances using deceit and deception to invade our homes - constituted a crises of public confidence for the whole TV. industry and for initiating be ginning reforms. Philip Cortney, chairman of the International Chamber of Commerce, deserves praise for taking a lead in focusing responsibility on business it self as the intended benefici ary of the quiz show racket and for urging all business men to join in a "Hands-Off-Entertainment Code." DR. STANTON and Mr. Cortney know that the tigged quiz shows have been playing with fire which could burn up their most precious possession, public confidence. The networks will have noth ing to sell and business noth ing to buy if they alienate the audiences they most want to win. Mr. Cortney, as president of Coty, Inc., is a businessman concerned with public atti tudes toward selling practices and he makes this appeal: "We propose that, business men who utilize television for their advertising adopt a Hands - Off - Entertainment Code. : Government interfer ence in entertainment is not the answer- Censorship Is not the American way. Let the businessmen be con c e r n e d only with honestly selling their products and services. Let the networks and stations be responsible for the enter tainment and editorial con tent." Surely this is a policy which the networks would welcome. It places responsi bility for reform where it be longs. Most people seem to feel that the Congressional investi gators have done a first-rate job, breaking through the say nothing admit - nothing ra diation belt with which some key witnesses surro u n d e d themselves when appearing before the New York grand jury. . . BUT aren't the politicians -or many of them being just a little smug, even a little, too light-hearted, in a prema ture way, at alerting millions of viewers to the fake spon taneity of rigged quiz shows? Isn't this going to alert mil lions of voters to the faked spontaneity of a lot of rigged campaign quiz shows? Having persuaded the net works and the viewers that the entertainment quiz shows ought not to be sur reptitiously rehearsed and the questioners furnished ques tions or answers or both in advance, isn't it just one short step away to persuading the voters that campaign quiz shows ought to give up enlist ing tame supporters as their questioners and abandon their answer cards? I AM NOT referring to "Meet the Press," "Face the Nation," "Youth Wants to Know" and other such press conferences which have al ways been on the level. I am not suggesting that there are candidates for public office who are able to handle close questioning off-the-cuff. But there has been fancily staged A COIPLB WM Reports traveling abroad. Roscoe Drumond fakery in campaign quiz shows just as in the entertain ment quiz shows and the pur pose has been the same to sell a product, the candidate -by making him appear bright er, more knowledgeable, and more alert than reality. If the public is going to de mand and get realism and honesty in the entertainment quiz performances, isn't the public soon likely to demand realism and honesty from the campaign quiz performances? And if the political public de mands it hard enough, it will have to be heeded. This means that there will be some poli ticians who will wish that the quiz show scandal had never been uncovered or that radio and TV had never been in vented, (c) 1959 New York Herald Tribune Inc. In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS From Washington: The department of agricul ture says next year's wheat crop may exceed this year's 1,117,000,000-bushel crop by about eight per cent. The re port is based on an intention-to-plant survey of growers that has just been completed. It also forecasts a reduction of about seven per cent in wheat exports during the 1959-60 marketmg season. In creased competition in Eu rope, it says, may cut into American sales to foreign customers. J?ROM Seattle: A Pacific Northwest wheat storage stood at 177,711,000 bushels on October 1-or 22 per cent LARGER than the same date a year ago. Combined farm and interior elevator stocks in the North west were up 15 per cent and terminal elevator stocks were up 43 per cent over a year ago. THAT is to say: , With the warehouses bulging and export markets shrinking, we go on subsidiz ing overproduction of wheat. Sounds foolish, doesn't it? FROM Cricklade, England: A ram named Roger saw a hated rival yesterday and charged at him with the speed of an express train. There was a thundering crash and the rival - Roger's reflection in the mirror-like hubcap of a new automobile-disappeared. Roger was knocked out by the impact of the collision. FOOLISH Roger! -stm- Do you reckon he was any more foolish than powerful nations that regard all other powerful nations as enemies and shed their blood and their substance fighting them? That has been going on as long as there have been historians to record the story. Foolishness isn't confined to the animals. FROM Ancona, Italy: Warden Eugenio Taddei confided to reporters today that he had just received a re quest from a former inmate, Francesco Tocca,n to be al lowed to come back to the jail. Tocca, after finishing a 14-year sentence, wanted to return because he found life on the outside "too difficult and too risky." That is to say, he discovered that ONLY IN JAIL could he find SECURITY. IN conclusion Wouldn't this be a won derful world if we could only get rid of all the foolishness?

Miracles of Mercy To the Editor: I have wit nessed at close hand a mir acle in modern medical prac tice I would like to bring to public attention. While to me it is a miracle, and I shall al ways consider it as such, it was conducted as an efficient routine job of life-saving at the Rogue Valley Hospital, another episode in its daily drama of mercy. The life of my wife was saved by a combination of fac tors the skill of a local sur geon, the modern facilities and efficient staff of the Rogue Valley hospital, (the blood donated by local peo ple and the Mercy Flights air ambulance service. I : want - to . make three points: 1. Commend the people of the Medford area for estab lishing a modern medical cen ter, staffed with expert nurses and technicians, and used by skilled physicians and sur geons. . 2. Thank the donors of blood who were called to the hospital at their , inconveni ence. TO me the - giving of blood to aid a suffering fellow man is a true, tangible expres sion of Christian humanity. I urge everyone in the commu nity to register and be typed as members of the walking blood bank which is used in emergencies, and also to do nate regularly to the Red Cross bank which is the nor mal source of blood used at the hospital. 3. Emphasize the fact that Mercy Flights is a service of which the community should be extremely proud. The men who fly these missions make many routine flights in fair weather from good airfields. They also - frequently risk their lives for the sake of oth ers by flying from dangerous mountain airstrips and in tur bulent stormy weather. The service is supported by sub scription.

UNICEF Workers To the Editor: It takes a great deal of cooperation to successfully run a project. Co operation is what UNICEF has received in our Rogue River valley. UNICEF wishes to thank Jorgensen's Dairy for the hundreds of cartons donated in which to collect the coins for the purchase tof medicine and food for the children's fund. UNICEF also thanks the service clubs of Medford. Also appreciated are the donations and help' given by grocery companies ' and donut shops. The school children, who go on Halloween each year to collect coins for children who need help more than they do, enjoy the treats. UNICEF and many parents hope our growing young citi zens will learn through this project that it is better to give than to receive. The time and work donated by the parents and teachers who staff, the schools on Hal loween night is also appre ciated. UNICEF too, wishes to thank Mrs. Laurence Clark for the work she did on the several thousand flyers taken home by each school child, and of course the Medford Mail Tribune, and other workers.- Mrs. John B.

I now had a souped-up wheelbarrow with five horses for rny milk, pa per, cider and raspberry route. On week ends I could pick up a few taxi fares from people who didn't care if they caught the train or not. On my route, the milk was sour, the. news was old, the apple cider was vinegar and the raspberries were over-ripe by the time I got them delivered, but people understood. This Brush car was very famous, on two occasions it had been half way to the top of Pike's Peak. The owner couldtn't put it on summit, so he shipped it to Oregon. I made several attempts to put it on the summit of Buck shot Hill in Medford, but failed in alL On one of my successful trips to Medford, I accidentally-got into a football game with this car. We came roar ing onto the field one minute before the game ended. Some one tossed the ball into the car and we took off down center field for 90 yards, then someone yelled, "You're go ing the wrong direction," so I made a U turn and started back. I believe I am the only person to make 210 yards in one play and not make a touchdown. That old Brush ran out ot gas oil the 10 yard line. The team threw me off the field and some teenagers pushed me to the old livery stable on South Riverside. This guy sells hay, oats and gasoline. I used to buy oats and hay, now, I'm buying gasoline.

Conservative View To the Editor: As valuable as your time may be, your po sition (Mail Tribune, Nov. 1, 1959, "Marching Firmly Back Ward"), makes it imperative you take time to investigate the present movement for a new maj or party in the United States. This movement is greatly supported by the Con servatives in the country; surely it must whet your curi osity, and your awareness of your- surroundings, to know what could make it necessary for a conservative group to endorse . such an obviously radical platform? Not enough can be said about a united nations organ ization formed in good faith. The present organization lacks this vital good faith; its charter was drawn up by a convicted communist,-and the United Nations in this coun try is saturated, indeed, super saturated with Red agents and not always ignorant sympa thizers. The downfall of virtually all powerful nations is inti mately linked with a pro gressive income tax.. Our present tax is nearing 25 per cent of our total income. This exceeds some countries . and almost parallels others, and all these nations have either disappeared, or are working their way back from total de feat suffered at the hands of their enemies. Foreign aid to build fabu lous hotels in otherwise very poor countries, and filling the private coffers of communist countries, might easily be cut back in light of our bulging grain and corn elevators, as opposed to the bitter dark ness of still starving, suffer ing, millions of souls. Remove the expensive vel vet and satin exteriors of schools and replace them with solid education, and there will be no need for Federal aid to education. There has been a change in our land;- our heads have turned and we, in our post preternatural perversity, abandoned spiritual values, and have taken on a smother ing intellectual obesity. We stuffed our jowls with the concentrated fats of material ism, and accepted the fallacies of Liberalism that necessarily perverts our freedoms. Many of our present governmental processes are an abuse of our constitution. The movement for a new major party seeks to correct these abuses. The conservatives seek to revital ize this nation by injecting an atmosphere of work, both mental and physical effort. They want people to practice a little self-reliance, some virtue, and a whole lot of 1 Christian charity. The powers of the Kremlin will always re main helpless in the -face of these. Robert J.

Hong Kong - The Commu nist attempt to remold China is certainly the vastest, most terrible, and most historically r iw decisive pro- v cess of tl ' modern world. Compared to ml this, our own news of , the President's J ever hopeful ; , . ' purposes is a fl SklXl chronicle of a Joseph Aisop This is the first of a series of reports at tempting to describe the gi gantic process that is going on in' China. Yet the series re quires a kind of preface, in the form of an answer to the obvious question: "How do you dare to write about China from Hong Kong?" The answer lies, oddly enough, in the story of the greatest and most successful crime in human history. The story began just 30 years ago, when Joseph Stalin surveyed the state of the Soviet Union with acute dissatisfaction. A normal ruler might well have been pleased by what Stalin saw. By 1929, Russia had re covered from the ravages of war and revolution, and the Russian people were really beginning to live rather well. But Stalin was not satisfied because the Soviet Union was not being transformed into a military - industrial great power fast enough to assuage his power hunger. STALIN therefore made as brilliant and evil a decision as any ruler ever made. He would drive down the living standard of the Russian mass es. Thus he would save for the state a much larger share of the national income. And he would invest these cruel sav ings in a great program of forced industrialization - the five year plans, i One wonders whether the iron genius foreknew the con sequences of his iron decision. Certainly Stalin saw that his first step was to collectivize Russian agriculture. If he did not get the peasants firmly in his grip, he could not seize as much as he desired of the hard-won output of the peas ant's fields. But did he truly plan to drive down the standard of life by a ruthless 50 per cent? Was he ready at theoutset to massacre over 5,000,000 peas ants, and then to go on with the killing until the total of the dead reached 15,000,000? Was he in short prepared from the beginning to ornament the whole landscape with corpses, as a huge human sacrifice to the grandiose Moloch of in dustrialization? . . NO historian has been able to say whether Stalin took his new road with full foreknowledge, or merely followed the road grimly, wherever it led. At any rate, it led where Stalin wanted it to lead. The result is the So viet Union today - a military industrial giant power built on Stalin's crime. It is apparent that some thing of the same sort is go ing on in China. It is even rather Clear that this some thing that is going on in China has lately become much more terrible and Stalin influenced, though there have been no major massacres, at least of late. But Stalin's crime is worth recalling, too, because it went almost unnoticed for such a long period. There were a few witnesses, to be sure, who saw and reported what , was being done in Russia. The great re porter, the late H. R. Knick erbocker, wrote rather accu rately about the peasant mas sacres, for instance. He was merely derided for his pains. Again, certain acute and expert diplomats, like Charles E. Bohlen and George F. Ken nan, saw what was going on1 r .jar ih,. jSV Counsel With ... Mr. Insurance Fred Brennan r - Suit ,1 t $ Fred Brennan or call Mr. Friendly Bill Fish Phone SP 3-7343 MEDFORD INSURANCE AGENCY 27 NORTH HOLLY ST. Bv Joseph Alsop clearly enough. But as late as the war period, "Time" maga zine haughtily rebuked Sec retary of State Cordell Hull for taking Bohlen along on his negotiating trip to Mos cow. "Time" suggested that Bohlen's suspicious, striped pants view of the Soviet Un ion would impair the happy atmosphere of the Moscow meeting. - rriHE rebuke, in turn, was --not a symptom of what "Time" later christened "soft ness" towards Communism. It simply recorded the impres sion left on most informed people by the unending streams of misleading twad dle that alleged eye witnesses had poured out of Moscow. By any standard, the Rus sian : scene was . infinitely more comprehensible by a Western eye than the present Chinese scene. Many Western eyes inspected the Russian scene when Stalin's great crime was in process. Yet most were deceived or lied, and the nature and dimensions of the crime were only detect ed by the Western world as a whole at a moment long af ter the second World War. Despite these highly in structive facts, this reporter would of course go to Peking and write as an eyewitness if he were permitted to do so. But one -must also note that in the years of Stalin's crime, rather more of the true facts seem to have been available in the city that all right think ing liberal persons used to call the' "Riga rumor factory." The refugees in Riga were not believed but they gener ally told the truth. By the same token, the wis est observers with Peking ex perience themselves say that you cannot get the atmosphere of China here in Hong Kong, but you can get more Of the true facts, from the teeming refugees and from many other sources, some of them highly scientific.
