May field on Russia The series of articles about "Russia, written by Dr. Leonard Mayfield Mail Tribune, and the speeches he has scheduled on the same subject, indicate to us tnat nis trip was one of the best things that has happened o Medford in a long time. " , . ' - Len " is an intelligent, acute observer prob ably as well equipped as -anyone 'in this com munity to bring back impressions of tie .Rus-; sian Soviets, and get the story across. ' He is not doing so with any "ax to grind," but simply to tell us the truth, as he sees it, about our chief competitor in the cold war.. THIS, in a way, is one of America's greatest strengths in the Competition for-world lead ership the freedom and the ability to; observe, to think, and discuss the truth as we see it. This the Russians deny themselves. 7. , ..There are those who would, if given the choice, bury their heads in the sand and refuse to look at or listen to anything pertaining to the Russian (or Chinese) communists because they are, in effect, our enemies. Nothing could be more short-sighted. For if they are, in truth, enemies, then the more we know about them, the stronger our own position will be; and the stronger we can make ourselves to withstand their propaganda. TX7E DISTRUST the Russian government and, X based on our experiences, with good reason. " The Russians, in turn, distrust our- govern ment, for that is what they have been taught for the past 42 years. ... t But the peoples of the two' nations, Mayfield is convinced, are alike in many ways, and are sincerely devoted to the cause of peace. Yet, be cause the governments are at odds; we must "keep pur powder dry," keep ourselves strong as a nation, improve on our own admitted defects, and try to convince the world that we seek free dom and justice, for ourselves and for the worldl : It seems to us that such trips as that which Dr. Mayfield was privileged to take do more toward this end than anything else we can do. E.A. Nuclear vs. Hydro Power Astoria vis dependent, in large part, on the Columbia river salmon fishery (which includes off-shore: fishing). . "Dams across-the Columbia and its tributaries either , cut off , the annual spawning,.-runs alto gether, or tend to cut down on them. ; k '. Thus it is perfectly understandable that the Astorian Budget supports the . construction of an atomic power plant . a Hanf ord, Wash., before any more high dams are constructed across the streams which provide the salmon runs. THE Budget, as a matter of fact, makes a point which it seems to -us has been too little con sidered in recent years--the fact that atomic pow er, in one form or another, within the foreseeable future will be able to compete economically with hydroelectric energy, thus lessening the need for big dams for power generation purposes. The Pacific Northwest always will be in need of dams for navigation, irrigation and flood con trol purposes. And, as tirn goes on and the popu lation increases, they must be increasingly devot ed to improving fish, ; wildlife and recreational resources. E.A. ... .'. i Fission vs. Fusion The comments above are not to say, however, that nuclear, power will displace! hydro power, or even coal-thermal power, by tomorrow or the next day, or next year. '-. There are two principal reasons it will be some years away. v: ' " 7 The first is the fact that' America, as of now, still has ample hydro and coal and oil resources to furnish her power needs (unlike Great Britain, which is far ahead. of the United States in atomic power development).: ,: . - . . ; , The second is the fact that atomic power (nu clear fission) is inherently a limited source limited by the supplies of uranium in the world whereas thermonuclear power (nuclear fusion, as in the hydrogen bomb), when perfected will use the virtually unlimited supplies of deuterium (heavy . hydrogen), contained in the world's oceans. - " ", v .X - :. - . A TOMIC (or fission) power is being generated "today, and is feasible, if not yet economically competitive, in the United States. Thermonuclear (or fusion) power has yet td be accomplished although work on its develop ment is progressing. - ; - v The;question is whether vast sums should be expended on the immediate perfection of economically-competitive, . but eventually obsoles cent, atomic power, or whether we should wait until fusion power, the power source of the future, can be generated. . Either way, it's some time offi E.A. Noted Brazilian Composer Dies Rio De Janeiro, Brazil-flJP? Brazilians from all walks of life .today paid their final re spects to Heitor Villa-Lobos, 72, world famous composer and r- conductor- - who died Tuesday of uremia. . The body of Villa-Lobos lay in state in the Ministry of Public Education building un; til the funeral services. Bur for publication in the ial will be at the St. John the Baptist cemetery in Rio De Janeiro later today. . Villa-Lobos, a former child prodigy who was regarded as the outstanding composer in Latin America, had been iU for more than a year during which he suffered several cerebral - hemorrhages. He died- at his home here. Dennis the Menace 'AtotYflSON SAID I MS A 'RNE MYfitAD!

One of Kip ling's short stories was head ed "Pig." It mentions the Dravidian or wild pig of Hin dustan. In the good old days, Britain's lancers were trained on pigsticking. "Thus writer once enjoyed the consequent feast. Kipling's yarn is worth rereading by anyone contem plating a horsetrade. it is a warning that galling revenge can come, as it . did to Pine coffin. . v . : Wild pig has a flavor all its own. One has . it as wild schwein at a castle dinner in CzechoslovakiaAlso as Sang lier in N.apoleon's Corsica. Latter was the same wild boar a French king once chased up the spiral stairway to the roof garden where the court ladies watched the hunt. . There is, however, also a Ney World wild bpar dish. Writer once tasked it . on a Mexican hacienda-in the days when Diaz still was president.. The haciendado had a hobby of redskin meals. He was pleased when we were interr esfed. "You shall have a dish as Aztecan as the chocolatal you drink at my table - as the avocatal you eat there." Guaralupe, his highly effic ient cook, was a squaw. She made a succotash of beans and maize Her husband, 'Jose, was sent to shoots Javelina, or wild pig. Biologists call it "peccary." That dish of succo tash was flavored with wild pig. Jt truly was as Aztecan as the Calendar Stone. Many are1 the foods Colum bus added to our diet: turkey, corn, tomatoes, beans, squash, peanuts, tapioca, potatoes, sweet potatoes. Thus, the pig is native to both Old and New Worlds. ' CM. Goethe ' 3731 Tea st. , Sacramento 16, Calif. -., Problem for All To the Editor: The Ameri can standard of living is "you must pay!" Now if you and I benefit from a certain indus try or industries, and their aftermath is disagreeable, it is only, right that you and I should give our share to do away with that disagreeable ness. I am an orchard hand. I probably earn, on an average of about $2,900 a year. But believe me, I would be willing to give according to my earn ings, and my expenses for just every day living are as much as anyone's toward this air pollution extermination. " Now if all individuals and companies who profit from these two industries : in this valley would do the same (af ter their overhead is . paid) perhaps we would do away with this air pollution. Clifford Alden Trask , P.O. Box 405 Phoenix, Ore Youfh Program To the Editor: Would you please print the following?

The title is, "A Hundred Years Hence, The Expectations of An Optimist," by T. Baron Russell, A. C. McClurg & Co., Chicago, 1906. There are more than 200 subjects listed in the index. One fourth of the leaves were uncut, just as when it arrived from the printer. -.The book was published to be read only in the year of 2006. Now, just 53 years after the author's predicitions made for 100 years ahead, many or all. the list of categories, have come to pass in only one half the time. Id The author's preface was written at Beaufort House, Brentford. There are 308 pages of interesting topics. By another 50 years many more changes undoubtedly will fol low the present trend already mentioned too numerous to mention even in another book. 1 Bert Kissinger 520 Boardman, ' Medford. We're Invited! To the Editor: .My 'phone keeps jingling daily, people asking why' I quite writing to the Communcition column re garding the Fifty Plus club. I wrote every week, Dear People. There just wasnH room for us every time. If you see this, the Editor hasn't killed me; he only did some wishful thinking. (Ahem!) If a shoot-the-moon missile doesn't destroy the Guild Hall at Fifth and Oakdale in. Med ford before Friday noon, I hope , to meet most of those 'phone friends there. I should tell you that the meeting be gins at 12:30 p.m. sharp, but I like to get there early to visit. Don't you? If sometimes we do not get into the paper in a big way, look in Tribune's calendar for any changes. I- wish the Editor would slip away and visit us some timef recreation is good for editors. Pearl Spackman, Publicity Chairman, Jacksonville, Ore. Tobacco and Advertising ' To the Editor: Tobacco has a long history. A native of the Western Hemisphere, it was introduced in France in 1559 from Spain. In 1585 it was taken to England by Sir Fran cis Drake. Tobacco was at first recommended for medi cinal virtues, but soon became an article of luxury. In America the culture sof tobacco began in Virginia. In 1615, in the - gardens, fields, and even fee streets of James town it became not only the staple crop, but the principal currency of the colony. Tobac co is a product world wide, and is a way of life for mil lions of people. u Advertisements were known in the.' civilization of antiqui ty, notably those of Greece and Rome.

But the authorities r now have decided this injects "a confus ing set of personal biases" in to what could be a simple me chanical process.' . British -German Split Eyed in CommonMarketOrgan iza tions By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign Editor West German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer went to London this week to patch up an old quarrel and to prevent the possible out break of a new one. -: ' The old one has been well publicized and centers around Aden a'uer's mil newsom uiSttUSt Ot British intentions toward the defense of West Berlin and a proposed policy Of "disengage ment" between East and West which Adenauer believes would disastrously weaken Western defenses. The possible v new quarrel springs from Britain's intense dislike for the European com mon market, which has divid ed Europe into two economic camps, and in which West Germany is a key. . - They now are described by the euphonious titles, "Inner Six" and "'Outer Seven." The euphony ends with the titles. The titles' relate to geogra phic descriptions. The "inner reign of Julius Caesar, con tained considerable advertis ing matter. In medieval times Shopkeepers hired public cri ers to announce the sale of goods. . The era of 7 modern adver tising began with the inven tion of printing, and printed posters were displayed in Eng land before the "end of; the 15th century. . - "". ' The first American adver tising agency was established in Philadelphia, Pa., in 1840. Today more than 2,000 adver tising agencies are active in the U.S.A. We are supposed to improve our minds and take this mo dern way of life as a" God-given gift. We cannot go back and I doubt if many wish to, because if it was not for pro gress in all' phases of life our children might not be able to read an advertisement in the papers or see it on TV. The Bi ble does not mention tobacco once, and it also states "What gdeth down the throat does not defile the body but what cometh out of the mouth." If there, is anything at fault it is the fairer sex, because the cigarettes are on the shopping list. The last 20 years the to bacco companies have sold more cigarette cartons than they used to sell packs. "Tailor-made" cigarettes used to be a treat on Sunday and the head of the house used to smoke. The Bible says the man .is the head and the women should b"e seen but not heard unless she first talked it over with her husband. The world is a problem, but we do have to put up with it, so, let's all smile and love our enemies. (Name on file) - - Medford.

' Right now there is more food in the lunch box, more automobiles on the road and more money in -the pockets of -West Europeans than at any time in their history. But within the two economic blocs are the germs of a trade war which many economists fear could be disastrous. The six nations of the com mon market - signed their agreement in Rome in March, 1957, and the treaty came into effect Jan. 1 this year. The "Outer Seven" were organ ized by Britain- as a frankly defensive measure against the "Inner Six" and organ ization meetings- still are go ing on. Atom Exhibit to e in Downtown The "Town and Atom" ex hibit, part of a public educa tion program ' sponsored by the Atomic Energy commiS' sion, will be in downtown Medford Thursday afternoon. instead of at Medford High school, - Medford. Junior Chamber, of Commerce offi cials said today. . Hal Gardner, chairman of the Jaycee committee making arrangements, said the arri val time of the 35-foot van has changed. It was sched uled to-be at Medford High school Thursday. Gardner said the exhibit will be at ' Hedrick Junior High school Friday morning and at McLoughlin Junior High school that " afternoon. Friday evening it will be at the Medford Shopping Cen ter. Visitors'to the free exhibit may obtain a comprehensive picture of the many ways in which the peaceful atom is playing a more and more im portant role' in the lives of Americans, Gardner said. The exhibits explain research and development in the atomic energy , field, ranging from the mining and refining of radioactive ores to the con struction of nuclear reactors designed to provide electric power. , The exhibit's visit here is being sponsored by the Med ford Jaycees. ' GIFT OF LIFETIME Geneva, Switzerland (DPD A poliffe customs guard, given a gold watch by the Emir of Qatar in appreciation of the guard's courtesy, was told Tuesday he could accept the watch in 43 years - when he retires. - Stop Me seams together in tents, so they won't have to be sewed. Better yet, says the Army, how about a shelter the sol dier can squeeze out of a tube, or something, in ; the form of foamed plastic? Then he can crawl in out of the cold and open his self-heating, irradiated, dehrjfdrated chow, provided. somebody comes up soon with the heating device, a radiation system that works, and a portable giftno to heat the water to rehydrate the chow.

So please do some work on pleasant odors and tastes, the Army aslts our inventors, The girth pains of the "In ner Six" were considerable because of sacrifices required of home industries which lost tarrif protection . to more ad vantageously - placed opposi tion outside. .'" Refuses Original Invitation Similarly, Britain refused an original invitation to join the "Inner Six" because of prior commitments to Com monwealth members. ,. Other nations, such as Den mark, Belgium and The Neth erlands, entered either .group only ' with ' reluctance because they regard themselves as "Atlantic" nations, with strong ties to the dollar group. . So the partial solution of one problem has - created another.. . The United . States strongly backed the creation of the common market, as it did the European defense community as a means of so uniting Europe as to. make another, European war impos sible The unforseen danger that now arises is that, as each group reduces trade , walls within its own area, they wilf at the same time erect ruinous tariff barriers against the other. And Britain, at one time a strong advocate of European umty, now fears that as the "Inner Six" more closer to political as well as economic unity, she may find herself cut off from the continent al together.

This talk includes plans'for a modern steel mill, expansion of the shipbuilding 1 industry and other projects. llfHO'LL pay the bill? You know who. He wears a chin whisker and a high hat. CLEMENT ATTLEE, a for mer British prime minis ter, was quoted in Denver the other day as having said Pres ident Eisenhower was some-, what second-rate as a soldier and no better as a statesman. Jumped about it in St. Louis, he' says he was quoted, out of context. Asked if he would elaborate and put the comment back in context, he snapped: "Find out what I've written." The dispatch adds that he "parried questions gruffly." Hmmmmmm. Attlee, General Monty and this British general who got into the news a whileback about Ike playing golf instead of leading the army might do well to go back and read Ben jamin Franklin's statement at the signing of our Declara tion of Independence on July 4, 1776, to the effect that "we must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately." It holds true in the present cold war situation. POLITICS: Governor G. M e n n e n (Soapy) Williams of Michigan, speaking in Houston, Texas, says he thinks Senator Lyn don Johnson, a Southern con servative, ' would "give " the people an honorable admini stration if elected President." Coming from Governor Williams, who is a liberal with a capital L, that is a rather unusual example of tol erance. One can't help think ing we could' use quite a little more tolerance in our politics. GOVERNOR Nelson-Rockefeller of New York, in his swing around the Pacific Coast, told a Western udi ence the other day that he "has no burning desire to be President, but does have a burning concern over the country's future." The odd part of it is that he probably meant it. Govern or Rockefeller is a rather re markable young man. v IN Conclusion: ' Vice-President Nixon, who is also a rather remarkable young man, never carries so much as a note.with him when he is making a speech. He pre pares his talk carefully, but speaks extemporaneously. That's a point in his favor. It's hard to imagine anything more boresome than listehing to somebody read -a speech. w jj milii.l . 1 s w r-g" am ' Sj3r l. .
