Now it will begin the task f ' on frr i. j-T ox accumulating some aa,uuu signatures on peti tions to put the measure on the November ballot. They should have little" difficulty in doing so. And we believe the measure will be made into law when the voters pss upon it. We also believe that the outdoor advertising industry has brought this upon itself by its indis criminate and undisciplined abuse of the privi lege of using public highways for advertising. TTHE measure itself is not as strict a one as some people wanted to see. ...... But it's strict: enough. Aftd it goes far, far beyond what the industry, was willing to do on a voluntary basis despite pious declarations that it was going to "police" itself , and put up no more billboards along the freeway north of Salem. (The Capital Journal reports they've been go ing up at a great rate, even since the industry's declaration of policy.) : IN BRIEF, the proposed law would ban all ad-- vertising billboards from an area 660 feet on each side of an interstate freeway. In Oregon, this means the full length of Highways 99 and 30. It would permit directional and informational signs, and signs advertising certain services along the rights of way. It would not affect most city billboards. I But; the big, blatant boards along the high ways in the country would be effectively .banned. I It would also require existing signs in viola tion of the law to be removed within five years. And if the owners won't, the highway commis sion can take them down, and bill the owner. . 'JTHE measure's preamble tells its purposes : "In order to promote the safety, convenience and - enjoyment of public travel and the free flow of com ' merce, to protect -the public investment in interstate highways, "to attract visitors to .this state by conserving the natural beauty of areas " adjacent" to such roads upon which they travel in. great numbers, and to in sure that information in the specific interest of the traveling public is presented safely and effectively, it is necessary and in the public interest to control the erection and maintenance of advertising signs along interstate highways." - . The officials of the Highway Protection Com mittee are, to us, an assuranee-of the-group's bona fides. The list contains ?m any distinguished names, the bearers' of which are moderate, rea sonable people. They include Ex-Sen. Rudie Wil helm Jr., chairman: Edwin Armstrong, former secretary of the late Douglas McKay; State Sen. Alfred-Corbett, Grangemaster Elmer McUlure, State Treasurer Howard C. Belton, Mrs. Marshall Cornett, Mrs. Dave Epps, Ed Geary, Senator Neu berger," Former Gov. Charles A. Sprague, Mayor John' Snider and .others equally respected. We hope, and expect,, the bill -to pass by a big margin. E. A." . Coach Stays, President Leaves We're glad that Lett Casanova decided to re main as lootball coach Oregon. V We're sorry that 0. Meredith Wilson decided to leave the post of president of the University. And no one can successfully quarrel with the decision of either of them, for it is. a personal de cision, and based on many factors, not all of which may be known to the public. -,r AS LONG as college football jsito receive the overemphasis which it does, we like to see men like Casanova in charge. While he is as anxious as the next coach for a winning team, he does not go to the lengths that some coaches do to obtain, one. And he has not lost sight of the essential, important reasons for. collegiate athletics a healthy, competitive spirit;- a lesson in sportsmanship ; an opportunity for obtaining physical skill arid physical training. . The fact that hi? hasdecided to remain at Oregon, -rather than succumb to lush offers in the more professionalized sports arenas of Cali fornia, is a tribute to the man, and to his attitude toward what sports are all about. rR.' WILSON'S problem was a little different. Since the. academic -(as distinct from the athletic) world differs less from campus to cam pus, he need be less concerned about differing philosophies. " : More money than Oregon can pay him must have been one consideration in his decision. .'But knowing him as a dedicated scholar and educator, we have a-feeling that the deciding factor may well have been the fact that he would have a larger area in which to wield his influence on behalf of quality in education. -- ' - V AMBITION is ; an admirable -trait, as long as it is directed towaid admirable goals. In Casanova's case, apparently his ambition is to remain at a smaller and more congenial school, where, as the Register-Guard says, "He has. raised the caliber of level, and a more successful one too, than any of his predecessors. He has proved in the tough est of competition that both nice guys and stu dents can play outstanding football. We like it that way and believe most citizens . . . agree. In Dr. Wilson's case, the added prestige of a larger school, with more students, closer to the nation's intellectual centers, may have seemed to him too good an opportunity to reject.

Birds and Flowers To the Editor: In yester year's vaudeville, Kolb dis cussed with Dill the strategy of "Killing two birds mit vun rock." 'Cannot this desirable end also ' be accomplished in garden planning? . In striving for color with flowers or berries in winter, is it not possible to gain same, yet simultaneously help birds? In writer's garden several items seem attractive to our feathered guests. rTubular flowers, even cer tain type of fuchsias, furnish hummingbird food. Certain other flowers through the year give us who plant mass ed color, yet are as welcome to birds as ice cream cones to frecklefaced Junior. The "French" marigolds (really Mexican natives and ranging across the Border into Big fB e n d -National Park) give food to goldfinches, also whitecrowned sparrows. Another welcoming signal toward birds becoming guests is planting shrubs with ber ries. Our experience with ce dar waxwings and robins is that they exhaust first the native toyon or Christmas ber ries. Then they eat the red, next the yellow pyracantha, (Himalayan natives). Lastly the blue-black myrtle berries. Birds also utilize both shrubs and trees as shelter (whitecrowned, also golden crowned, fox sparrows). Like wise shrubs and trees are nesting sites. The list of 78 species in our garden is evi dence as to how birds can be attracted. C. M. Goethe 371 Tea st. . Sacramento 16, Calif. ' Suicide Amendment - To the Editor: You have named the proposed 23rd Amendment the "suicide Amendment." The 23rd amendment will repeal the 16th amendment, which authorizes the individ ual income tax. I think you have misplaced your title of "Suicide Amend ment." It properly applies to te 16th amendment. In sup port thereof I submit: The "Bill of Rights" states that the people shall be safe in their persons and effects from unlawful searches and seizures-shall not be required to be self-incximinating or be a, witness against one's self shall not take personal prop erty'; for ; public use without just compensation, among other rights; last, but not least -no arbitrary taxation. Congress, by authority of the 16th amendment, has au thorized the Internal Revenue Service to make its own rules and regulations as to the in come tax law enforcement, and those "rules and regula tions" are such that they take laway and deny" you our "Bill of Rights" as enumerated in our federal constitution. The federal courts have thrice held that those receiv ing gratuities by way of "tips" must report them and pay taxes thereon, or be sub ject to "penalties. The Internal Revenue Service, by its "rules and regulatins" provides that if ..the. taxpayer .doesn't keep Menace an "adequate" record of the "tips" the I.R.S. will estimate the amount of tips received and force the taxpayer to meet the ' tax the "Service" has ARBITRARILY arrived at. These "rules and regula tions" are disclosed by a U.P.I. report from Washing ton, D. C. - .: - From this we have, on one hand, our constitutional rights and the "spirit of 1776.'-'--and on the other hand we give the government the right to scut tle the constitution and our "Bill of Rights"-a socialized government a government that repudiates the constitu tion and enslaves its citizens Communistic? If not it . is right next door to it. Which is - the "Suicide Amendment"? If you believe your state--ment made in your Editorial of Jan. 14, "Government, of any size, is good when the people are its master; gov ernment, of any size, is bad when it is master of the peo ple," then I say to you that your writings belie your be liefs. . . - . ; - Yours for: constitutional government. , Ray O. DeMarrs 708 West Second st Medford . Bride, Pride To the Editor: O.S. in her Potpourri column of this and that, spoke of difficulty in origin of the word bride. Now it so" happens that the source of words in reading and study of grammer was the main in centive. But grammer that word still gives me the creeps, for it and my doleful doubts of ever getting the sixth grade behind me, was the main in centive behind my third run away to escape it, and par ental demands for something worth-while to my : dull '..but inquiring mind. Somewhere out of the long ago, haunting of public-li braries or joyous contact with elderly, inquiring, but well informed minds, is a wispy memory that bride and pride had the same spelling as pride, but often had a quite different meaning, what kind of a mate the young husband got hitched to. It appeared to be back in Shakespearean times when every writer was much a law unto himself as to the use and wording of the English language. Evidently, some young husband - writer got hitched to one of the Bard's Irish shrews, possibly the one who tried to tame her. Be that as it may, this wordy crusader wanted no truck of pride with his, er, pride. So he shifts the little curve down to the bottom of the letter p, thus making it a b, which made distinction t'wixt the two, with bride meaning a young wife and pride retaining its status quo. Why in the name of prog ress couldn't that - worthy have done some man-handling with that word, row, that de pending where used, could mean a row of beans, or. a row with the little woman or, less dog-houseish, her mother, or mayhap better still, a row in a boat away from it all. What say? F. J. Clifford Route 2, Box 200F Central Point, Ore. Teacher-Pay Research " To the Editor: It is always a pleasure to read your edi torials regarding public edu cation in Oregon. You have been extremely kind in your support and have not failed to state the issues as you see them. -. In regard to the letter from James A. Johnson concerning salaries of teachers in the Medford school system and your editor's ' note . regarding Matter of Fact By Joseph Alsop JOURNEYS AND JUNKETS Washington-The scene was the Elysee Palace. The chief actors were President Eisen hower and Gen. Charles de Gaulle. But in this curious scene that took place last month in Paris, the speaking part belonged al- joseph alsop most wholly to Eisenhower. De Gaulle merely listened "in a silence that was glacial, almost hy perboreal." The President was protest ing , American good will to ward France, in North Africa. He was explaining that the American failure to vote with France on the Algerian reso lution, in the United Nations had by no means meant what the French thought it means. He believed, evidently, that the Franco-American misun derstanding could be straight ened out. James Hagerty was even waiting in an outer roomno doubt to superintend the. issuance of a cordial joint communique. But the misunderstanding could not be straightened out. 'While the President's explanations and expressions of good will continued, de Gaulle maintained his silence. When at last the President also fell silent, de Gaulle was content to answer in two frigid words, "Je regrette -I am sorry." And so the meet ing ended with no joint com munique, ' as badly as it be gan. rpHIS summary of Gen. de - Gaulle's own account of his meeting with the Presi dent comes from an undoubt ed Parisian source. It is worth attention at this time pri marily because the President's plans for a South American journey have ; just been an nounced, while a visit to the Far East after the Soviet Un ion is already being talked about. The point is that the inglorious episode in Decem ber : stemmed directly from the President's glorious tri umphal tour of Europe in September. . " On that tour, France was the high point. Never, said everyone, had there been such a reception. No one, said the whole world, could have done so much to improve the always difficult relationship with Gen. de Gaulle. But what the President did in September was to give de Gaulle promises, or what Were interpreted as promises, of all out support for his Al gerian policy. With consider able justice, de Gaulle in terpreted the American U.N. vote as a betrayal of those promises. It was the sense of betrayal, much more than the U.N. vote itself, that made the ugly trouble when the President visited Paris again TN OTHER words, these --good will journeys that the President so much enjoys can be exceedingly dangerous as it, I should like to point out that the salaries for directors, supervisors and consultants are not included in the teach ers', salaries. In the foreword to the study is this statement: "AU teachers' salaries reported by the districts were to include the contract salary, plus extra pay for extra duties." This explanation is included be cause it is practically impos sible in Oregon to report only the salary which is included for classroom teaching. Thou sands of teachers have extra duties, teach an extended year, or are heads of depart ments, and this is the basis on which contracts are written I do not believe that there are enough teachers in this cate gory in the Medford district to put the average very far out of line. I presume the highest figure quoted for the teachers in the Medford sys tem is probably that of the football coach. The OEA Research Study on Salary Schedules which was published in September carries further warning re garding the use of the statis tical material. The foreword to this study points out that perhaps additional studies need to be made, especially one regarding extra pay for extra" services. Many school districts use this extra pay for extra services as a form of merit pay. There are limitations to all statistical material and those using it must know how to interpret it. Therefore, I can not agree with you that the OEA research materiel is mis leading. The 1 primary prob lem is that those using it must know how to interpret the material. This, of course, is a diffi cult problem but we hope that, over the years we can improve the research material and that those using it will through the familiarity of its use become more able to in terpret it. : C.

The danger is, very simply, that the Presi dent will awaken xpecta- tions which he cannot or does not wish to satisfy. He did so in France, with reaUy grave results. There are some signs he also did so in India. He had hardly left Delhi before Nehru, at a press conference, delicately but quite , plainly hinted that he now expected much more generous Ameri can aid. Judging by the man the President has chosen as his economic emissary to In dia-former Budget Director Joseph Dodge Nehru's expec tations are also due to be disappointed. At the risk of seeming iron ical, it is interesting to com pare the Eisenhower, method with the method of Nikita S. Khrushchev, who is also go ing junketing this spring to India, Burma, and Indonesia. India has an inflamed border problem with Communist China. Burma has a smolder ing border problem. Indonesia is in a bitter row with China over the status of the over seas Chinese in Java. Khrush chev will quite certainly talk about these problems during his junket. Almost equally certainly, there is a decided chill in the relationship between Mos cow and Peking. The Western policy makers are currently much stirred by the report of a semi-public lecture at Moscow University, in the course of which the Chinese Communist leaders were sharply rebuked . for their improperly cold" reception of Khrushchev at Peking . in October. There is other evi dence of the same sort. But now, apparently, the adroit Khrushchev is going to turn the Moscow-Peking child to his own advantage. He will use it, in fact, as proof of his admirable impartiality, and thus assume the role'of jolly mediator between China and India, Burma and Indonesia' nnHERE are symptoms, al- ready, that Khrushchev is doing what he needs to do for this purpose - persuading and bullyragging the Chinese into agreeing in advance to ar rangements which Khrush chev can then offer to the other Asians as generous compromises. The outlines of the Indian compromises are already visible, too. China will retain de facto . posses sion of Northern Ladakh with its crucial strategic road, while giving ground on the eastern border, in the area of the MacMahon line. The Chinese have lately in creased their force in Tibet from 70,000- to 100,000 men. The Indians-now really fear a serious attack on their bor der. Thus they will quite Today Cr By Walter DIVIDED EUROPE Mr. Dillon, the Under Sec retary of State, is in Paris for a meeting which is con- n cerned with a t subject that T i x uas no i yei i n t e rested American s very much. It i s, however, one that in terests Euro peans passion ately. This is the division of almost all of Western Europe into two large trading groups, which are known as the Inner Six and the Outer Seven. The Inner Six call them selves a "community," which is in itself significant. They have organized a common market within a customs un ion and they are in the pro cess of developing other com mon financial and adminis trative institutions. The Outer Seven call themselves by the looser name of an "associa tion." They are pledged to grant free trade to each other. But as regards the rest of the world they have no common tariff. The Inner Six consists of France, West Germany, Italy, and the Low Countries. The Outer Seven consists of the United Kingdom, the three Scandinavian countries, Swit zerland, Austria, and Portu gal. There are five other nom Communist nations which do not belong to either group. They are Iceland, Ireland, Spain, Greece, and Turkey. And of course, Canada and the United States, though they belong to NATO, do not be long to either of the Euro pean trading groups. "CACH of the two groups "will have preferential tar iff discrimination in favor of its own members and against not only the other groups, but against all the outsiders. .At present and for the foresee able future the tariff around the Inner Six will be consid erably higher than the aver age of the tariffs, of the Outer Seven. - All these . discriminations and differences will create much discord within the At lantic community. But they Waiter Lippmami (By M-T Staff and Contributors) We found a note on our desk Friday, upon our return from lunch. It said: That sound in the air. is the constant shuffling of feet as potential political omce candidates watch to see who is planning to run in the 1960 elections." So THAT'S what that noise is! All along we had thought it was only the subdued thun der of jet planes flying far overhead. But, since it has been prop erly identified, it is, indeed, recognizable as tha,t every- second-year murmuring. Will Walter Nunley run for district attorney? Or for at torney general? Will Bereth Hopkins make a bid for Ralph James' county commissioner's chair? Will Ed Mann? Who will run against Bob Duncan (provided he runs for reelection)? And who against Eve Nye (ditto)? Is Paul Rynning a shoo-in for surveyor, the job he has held so long, along with his former post as engineer? Or will some younger man try to get it away from him? What Republicans are look ing at the office of treasurer. where Karl Janouch is (em phatically) seeking reelection? Only one thing is sure, and that is that while the Presi dential race may take the spotlight, there is going to be plenty of political activity hereabouts. What with all this, plus sev eral state offices (treasurer, secretary of state, attorney general, etc.), plus a bakers dozen measures on the ballot, it's going to be lively. Get braced, fri:.ds, for i lot of hot air. Tom Reeder, who bowed out of the race for district attorney last week to re turn to private practice next year, was discussing Don ald Thompson, the convict' ed Safeway robber, whom he helped to convict. He added, "You can say that Thompson and I have both given up 112.000 per year jobs." If someone's red and white station wagon has a few more probably be grateful for Khrushchev's compromise. In this event,, their gratitude will teach the lesson that there are even more ways of generating good will than there are ways of skinning a Cflt (Copyright 1960 New York Herald Tribune, Inc.) Tomorrow Llppmann are undoubtely negotiable, especially as the real interest of West Germany, whiph is to have lower tariffs, is likely in the end to prevail over the protectionism of the French manufacturers. In a negotia tion to deal with the lowering of European tariff the United States has powerful cards in its hand, and can surely take care of its own interests. UR most important interest "in the whole subject is not economic. It is political. It has to do with the peace, order, and unity of Europe. It is in this context that we should discuss and form American policy towards the rivalry of the two European blocs. I must hasten to say that it is not clear to me now what our policy should eventually be. But it is clear already that the real problem is not one to be dealt with by tariff ex perts alone but rather by those concerned with politi cal planning and strategy at the highest level. The Inner Six, with their common market and their growing agreement to har monize their internal affairs, must be regarded as the nu cleus of a new European power. It is correct to say, I believe, that the conception of the European community was born at the end of the war out of the dramatic les sons taught by the war. One lesson was that the Franco German feud, which had pro duced three wars in 70 years, was suicidal and that it must be ended. The other "lesson was that the greatness of Europe in the world could never be restored by the European nations separately, and that if they were to count among the great powers of the earth, they would have to unite. llflTH these purposes our " government has always been In sympathy, and we have not let the probable in conveniences of a customs union deflect our support. That has been, no doubt, the right policy. But itis not a sufficient policy, and the time is at hand when a greater sophistication and less naivete are needed. In their push towards a miles on the speedometer than the owner thinks it should have, we know the reason. One recent lunch hour three bank officials decided to visit fourth, who was in the hos pital. None of their cars were parked near the bank, so they asked a fellow-worker if they could borrow hers. "Sure," she said. "The keys are in it." They drove to the hospital. returned, parked the car at a spot a bit away from where it was parked before, and then brought the keys in to her. Those aren't MY keys," she said. Her car, she said, was green and white. The car they had taken was red and white. They rushed back to it, moved it to where it had been, and left the keys in it after checking to determine that no identification could be found. One of our young men. who regularly telephones the hospitals on news mat lets, says that one thing he likes to hear is the war the switchboard at one of the hospitals slows down to drawl when a one-time southern belle from Georg ia takes over. Two other young men join ed our staff recently.-" To look at them, you'd think they are nice, clean-cut. intelligent, rather conserva tive people. But they have a guilty se cret. They dig beatnick jive. Crazy. They not only dig it, they even write it, when others' backs are turned. While rummaging through a waste-basket the other day, we came across the follow ing, which illustrates what we mean: oooooooo, man machines go clickety. clackety, clickety, daekety. clickety and paper goes flip, flap, crinkle and keys go bip, bap. bippity, bappity but like nothing.

Sigh. greater European unity, to wards some kind of confeder ation, the planners and strat egists of the Inner Six have relied upon the energy of vested interests in the larg er .market to overcome local and national obstructions. They have been eminently successful. But the methods they are using to integrate the Inner Six are making it more diffi cult to bring a greater unity into Europe as a whole. This is the point which calls for sophisticated examination In Washington. The integration of the In ner Six-essentially of France and West Germany-has called into being the loose defen sive association of the Outer Seven. This division of Eu rope is not, however, incur able and ominous, once France can be persuaded to permit the common market to adopt a low tariff policy. 1UT for the longer run there "is something more serious in the way the Inner Six are developing their community. As they intensify the integra tion of West Germany with France, they make it increas ingly - difficult to reunify Germany. The East German economy cannot be Integrat ed with the West German except very slowly and very gradually. That is why there is no enthusiasm for reuni fication, far from it, in the inner circles of the common market community. Moreover, the increasing political integration of th Inner Six makes it increas ingly difficult to envisage the entry of the East European nations into an all-European trading community. The inte gration of the Inner Six, which is too strong medicine for Sweden, Switzerland, and Austria, would surely be much too strong for, let us say, Poland or even Yugo slavia. The community of the In ner Six is a good thing. But it has grown to a point where what it needs in the govern ment at Washington is not so much a sentimental uncle as a candid friend. This candid friend would be concerned not only with the discrimina tion of the customs union but also with the larger problems of unity -of the unity of the two Germanys, of the unity of the Atlantic community, and of the unity of all of Europe.
