Will Be Departure
From Past in State
By DOUGLASS GRIPP
Salem 7 IUPD The Oregon

convention here Jan. 29-30
will be a departure from the
past.
Party officials say. they
know of no other such state
wide Democratic conclave in
Oregon history, although

Magazine Article
Ashland - "The Importance
uf Continued Study" is the
title of an article by Dr. Her
bert Cecil, Southern Oregon
college music staff member,
appearing in the current issue
of the Oregon Music Educa
tor-
Stressing the need for con
tinual self - improvement of
the music educator through
formal schooling, activity in
professional organiza t i o n s,
and keeping abreast of cur
rent literature in the field,
Dr. Cecil points out a number
of ways by which a teacher

some other states have had
them.
About 507 delegates are ex
pected. Headquarters will be
the Marion Motor Hotel
There will be big state Demo
crats and little ones. National
Chairman Paul Butler will be
there, and so will Sen, Wayne
Morse. '
Other Democratic members
of the congressional delega
tion have been invited but it
is not known so far if any
others will be able to make it.
Reasons for Meeting ..
Why has this convention
been called?
Here are some reasons list
ed by State Sen. Robert
Straub (D-Springfield), state
chairman: 1. Let the public
know the distinctions be
tween the Democratic and Re
publican parties, what the
people can expect from Demo
crats who are elected.
2.. Determine what the is
sues are.. .
3. Let Democrats at large
know how those elected by
the party feel on various is
sues. '
4. Provide candidates with
the issues that the entire
party is behind.
5. Serve as a rallying point
to inspire workers to hustle
for the party.
6. Get over the party story
the public relations factor.
'. Straub summarizes by say
ing the convention will be "a
device by which elected party
officials and others can dis
cuss, argue and elaborate on
the issues that face the peo
ple of the state of Oregon.
More Are Planned
"This interplay is going to
be very desirable in develop
ing broader and more respon
sible viewpoints in all our
minds," he said.
The State Central Commit
tee approved the idea of the
convention in 1958. Straub
says the success of county
platform conventions so far
is hoped to be an inkling to
the success of .the state
meeting.
The Oregon county conven
tions, also unique, took, place
in Roseburg in December and
in Eugene last week end.
Another is planned at Coos
Bay this coming week end.
Next year the party hopes
for a convention in every
county and perhaps a state
convention every two years.
In defining "the issues,"
the convention will stick
mostly to state problems,
Straub says, although some
closely-related federal prob
lems will be involved.
For ; this reason, Straub
doesn't think the state plat
form will be carried" in toto
to the national convention
next summer.- "But it no
doubt will be similar," he
adds.

HISTORY WITH JAPAN Secretary of
of State Cordull Hull, left, Japanese Ambas
sador Kichisaburo Nomura and Saburo
Kurusu, right, Japan's special envoy, are
shown leaving the State Department in this
photograph made Nov. 17, 1941. The Jap
anese were still, negotiating with Hull when
the Japanese launched their Dec. 7, 1941,
attack on Pearl Harbor. The United States
now envisages Japan as a bastion of de
mocracy in the Far East and an indus
trial bulwark against the spread of Com
munism in that area.

Estimates based on observa
tions made during the Geo
physical Year indicate that
there is about 40 per cent
more ice on the earth than
was previously believed.
About 90 per cent of it is in
Antarctica.
Of all the world's car, 63
per cent are manufactured in
the U. S. In order to inform
the public of their latest de
velopments, the automotive
industry spent over $159 mil
lion last year in national
newspaper advertising.
It is estimated that steadily
higher marriage and birth
rates will create 30 million
new consumers by 1970. And
daily newspaper circulation
has been keeping pace - it
has nearly quadrupled in the
past 60 years.
Japanese Signature on Treaty
Marks End of Long Road Back
Washington - (UPD - Prime
Minister Nobusuke K i s h i ' s
mission to Washington to sign
a new security pact on a basis
of sovereign equality marks
the end of the long road back
for Japan from the depths of
defeat.
It calls to mind, by con
trast, another mission from
Tokyo slightly more than 18
years ago which is identified
in history with Japan's disas
trous decision to plunge into
war against the United States.
It was in November, 1941,
that Saburo Kurusu was sent
to Washington to spin out dis
cussions with President
Franklin D. Roosevelt and
Secretary of State Cordell
Hull while Japan's militarists
perfected their plan to strike
at Pearl Harbor. Kurusu and
the "Japanese ambassador to
Washington, Kichisaburo No
mura, held their initial meet
ing with Roosevelt and Hull
on Nov. 17.
Still 'Negotiating'
They were still ostensibly
negotiating with Hull when
the Japanese launched their
Dec. 7 attack on America's
Pacific bastion at 7:50 a.m.
Honolulu time (1:20 p.m.
Washington time).
One hour after Japanese
bombs began falling on Pearl
Harbor, the two envoys from
Tokyo called on Hull and
handed him a long list of
American actions allegedly
aimed at throttling Japan. The
Japanese document, prepared
in Tokyo, still ddd not contain
any declaration of war but
merely said that Tokyo con
sidered it "impossible to reach
agreement through further
negotiations."
Hull, already advised of the
attack on Pearl Harbor, an
swered the Japanese in a tone
of repressed fury.
"In all my 50 years of pub
lic service I have never seen
a document that was more
crowded with infamous false
hoods and distortions - infa
mous falsehoods and distor
tions on a scale so huge that

In 1786 James Rumsey suc
ceeded in propelling a boat
with the use of steam. Be
cause of the increased inter
est in travel today, steamship
companies inform people of
their accommodations through
newspaper advertising - they
did 32.1 per cent more in
1958 than 1957.
I never imagined until today
that any government on this
planet was capable of uttering
them," Hull said.
Foes Become Allies
Then he showed the Japan
ese the door.
The era since' the Kurusu
mission encompasses the bit
ter Pacific war, followed by
a period during which Japanese-American
relations have
taken a full turn to bring the
one-time enemies into closest
military collaboration and
economic cooperation. The
United States now envisages
Japan as a bastion of democ
racy in the Far East and an
industrial bulwark against the
spread of Communism in that
area.
