Turkey Stiffened Against Reds; Needs Assurance U.S. Not Soft BT FRANK H. BARTHOLOMEW President United Press International Ankara, Turkey - (UPD-When the Eisenhower airplane comes to rest on the high Ana tolian Plain near the spot wnere Genghis Khan entered Turkey centuries earlier, the American President will find a situation not apt to be dup licated elsewhere on his long trip. , Here at Turkey's capital city of Ankara, he will find a friend of the Western powers that does not need to have its spine stiffened against Com munism. Instead it needs as surance that the spine of .the U.S.A. has not softened. "Our major concern is not Communism," an official of the national government told this writer. "We are concern ed with Russians. Don't Trust Russians "Communism or Czarism, we have learned through bit ter centuries not to trust the Russian. Truth and sincerity are not his virtues. Compacts are worthless. In a quid pro quo, he takes the quid and finds a reason for never giv ing up the quo." The Turkish nation is con cerned with the effect upon the . West in general and the American people in particu lar of the recent visit of Pre mier Khrushchev to the United States. Although most of the coun try, including the capital' city, is in Asia, Turkey has con tributed what is said to be the largest army in Europe to the NATO cause. The Turks have fought many wars, with the Russians, and they fear they will have to fight again if the West is lulled by the Kremlin into relaxing its guard. Proud of Ataturk Turkey is proud of three things in its national life. Vim i if military Inrrc Rc- ond in the star and crescent nag as symiwi ui as u a nationalism as you can find. Third is the memory of Mus tafa Kernel Ataturk, who westernized the nation and whose spectacular tomb, per haps the greatest of its kind in the world, crowns an Ankara hilltop. Turkey's great national and military pride, so evident in Istanbul and Ankara, was ex emplified for this writer dur ing the Korean war when a gravely wounded soldier was brought to a front-line aid sta tion. Silent among the wound ed men as he waited his turn, he uttered his first and only words when a blood-splattered surgeon turned to him:. - "Me, Turk!" Symbolic of Turkey's deter mined stand to prevent the Russians from gaining longed for access to the warm water of the Mediterranean are the . submarine nets at the juncture of the Bosphorus and the BlacK &ea. itussian vessels are permitted to pass through a narrow and zig-zag course be tween xne nets, in accordance with the Lausanne Treaty and the Montreux Convention.

"That's a tak," the Turk replied. "It is to welcome the Eisenhower party. It will be draped with American and Turkish flags." .Then he added; smiling: "There'll probably be "a banner saying 'Welcome Ike! Where's the money?' ".

The group's next meeting swerving aim of the Reds is to control the Middle East with its under-fed and emotionally overcharged millions, and that this is the basic situation from which the West must never take its eye. If it does, they say, the world will be- engulfed in chaos and Communism will appear as the solution. Whatever the problem of its internal economy, the na tion is a solid unit in historic and unyielding opposition to Russia and in its partnership with the West.

DOROTHY E. - He should tell his family to keep away. JACK E-I can't kick them out of my home. DOROTHY E. - I was mar ried a year ago and I am ex pecting a baby in a few months. I am still working full time. My problem is that a couple of times a week my mother-in-law or brother-in-law drops in for a little while for a chat. I'm tired at the end of the day and I have plenty of work to do around the house. I don't feel like entertaining anyone at the end of a hard day. A couple of times I just went to bed, but I could hear them talking and laughing in ' the living room and it annoyed me. I want my husband to tell them to keep away, but he refuses. JACK E. - My family was always very close. We enjoy getting together and chewing the rag until all hours of the night. I can't kick them out of my home. They would know that it's because of Dorothy and they feel she doesn't like them anyway. Dorothy is wrong to say she has to entertain them. They help themselves to coffee and never ask her to do a thing. My brother has done a lot of little favors for us in getting our place into shape and now he feels that our-place is prac tically like his own home. Mother feels the same way. , ' i THE COUNCIL: We think Dorothy has a legitimate beef. The problem here goes a bit deeper than just the physical work involved in entertaining. As is usual in a close-knit family, . the newcomer feels like an intruder. Dorothy hasn't been . married long enough to become entirely se cure in her possession of her MEXICAN TACOS 24c O Z z o X A O X o X m 70 THE PLACE TO MEET AND EAT PIE PIZZA PIE J J , '; husband. When her in-laws drop into her home any time they please and feel as though it is their own home, Dorothy feels she has nothing. We think it is most discour teous of these in-laws to re main in the house after Doro thy has excused herself to go to bed. The mere fact that they could remain under those circumstances indicates that they don't ' consider her of much importance around the place. On the other hand, we think it likely that Dorothy has been instrumental in putting herself in this position. If she had shown her interest in and affection for her husband's family, she might have been drawn into this - close-knit group and felt very happy and comfortable within it. In any case, the family would have felt her warmth toward them and she wouldn't have to be afraid of telling them herself that she would like a little more privacy in her own home. ' . , When her child is born, Dorothy may feel much more secure and will welcome these family get-togethers as a re- HOTEL MEDFORD Dining Room Open 8:00 A.M. to 8:00 P.M.

Serving THE THANKSGIVING BIRD With Medford Spiced Pears and all the Trimmings , Children always welcome Highways Should Be Checked Prior To Holiday Travel Travelers should check highway conditions before go ing out of town, especially if the trip calls for a drive over mountain passes, Medford Chief of Police Charles P. Champlin suggested today. "If you must travel over snow or ice, use tire chains and reduce speed to compen sate for winter drivine condi- tions," he added. Chief Champlin made the suggestions while exoressini? his hope that the Thanksgiv ing noudays would be free of traffic deaths in Oregon as well as Medford. Drivers trying to take too long a trip in a short holiday penoa are the biggest worry over Thanksgiving, he said.

There were no deaths during the 30-hour period. The two other 30-hour holi days of last year, Christmas and New Years, accounted for four deaths apiece. CALORIC INTAKE ' United Nations, N. Y.

She may also want to call upon her in-laws to serve as babysitters. So we think that whatever is said to Jack's family should be said in a kindly way. (Copyright 1959, General Features Corp.)
