Mr. Crutcher s Message It's too bad that 100 times as many people couldn't have heard Lewis Cmtcher's talk at the annual chamber of commerce dinner last Satur day night. Mr. Crutcher, the slight, mild architect who has caused a considerable stir in Portland a stir of discontent with the ugliness which has transformed downtown Portland into a sort of billboard jungle does not make his points by beating people over the head. To the contrary, he sort of sneaks up on them and "underwhelms" them (to use his own word). DUT, with a combination of wit, timing, intel- ligence and idealism, aided by the graphic illustrations possible with colored slides, he makes his points, and makes them strongly. In the simplest possible language, what he was saying was this: "We don't have to live with ugliness. If we want to, we can get togther and make our sur roundings beautiful." This he proved, over and over. He proved it by showing pictures of some of Europe's loveliest cities and then a contrasting picture of Portland (or Medford), showing what a mess unthinking, uncoordinated growth can do when guided only by the need of the moment. 117E MAY, as a matter of fact, be a little further along the road of intelligent use of our re sources than Crutcher is aware. He advised, for instance, that a tree-planting program be undertaken. He didn't know that Medford has one a highly effective one, too, headed by that dauntless crusader, Edith Eden. He pointed out that treated, could be a major asset. He apparently didn't know that, while Bear creek looks like the wrath of God now, a committee is at work lining up a plan which can be put into effect to rescue much of the creek for good purposes when the new freeway goes through. But his advice still is ed. For Medford, despite long way from having beautification. - pRUTCHER'S chief wrath is directed at that despoiler of city streets and skylines and country vistas the billboard. He proved that many are never even really noticed by the people they are supposed to influence. He proved that the bill board industry will go to great lengths to use an attractive f oreground (paid for by the taxpayers) for the advertising background. He proved the billboard industry was lying when it promised the Baldock freeway from Salem to Portland should remain without new big boards. -And he proved that regulated use of advertising signs in a downtown area can turn a lovely city into a jumbled hodge podge that not even a native could love if he takes the trouble to notice it.

It is an apt phrase. He could have been one of the great men of this hemisphere, but he chose, instead, to fritter it all away, and it now looks as though he'll wind up as nothing but another penny-ante strongman and dictator. E.A. Batten Down the Hatches As Bulletin writer Ila Grant has pointed out 1960 is chock full of three-day holidays. New Year's Day fell on a Friday. Memorial Day falls on a Monday. July 4 also falls on a Monday. Labor Day, as always, falls on. a Mon day. Veterans' Day comes on a Friday. And Christmas and next New Year's fall on Sunday, an event which causes many f inns to give their employees an extra day off the following day. . . pUTHERMORE, Lincoln's and Washington's birthdays, which are school holidays in many states, fall on three-day weekends: Lincoln's birthday on Friday, and Washington's on Mon day. And if anyone wanted to take Halloween off, he'd find, that was on Monday, too. About the only holidays not falling on Friday or Monday are Thanksgiving and Easter, which have to fall on other days. All of which information leads The Bulletin to make a Firm Prediction : the national traffic death toll for 1960 will be higher than in any previous year. Bend Bulletin.

Communications Letters to the Editor must bear the name and address of the writer, although under certain circumstances the use of a pen name or initial for publication is permissible.

The letters printed in this column do not necessarily represent the views of the paper; in fact the contrary is often the case. Licenses To the Editor: It's the be ginning of that wonderful year 1960, and it's beginning like all Januarys since 1932. Everyone is trying to predict the stock market, and their predictions are about as good as those predicting a surplus in the Treasury. I'll bet you a sawdust burning, sheet-iron smudgepot, we won't have a surplus at the end of the year. It's the first time I've ever had to pay twice for a fish license, $4.10 for a fish license to catch trout and $1.10 extra for salmon. You can't fish for salmon, unless you got a trout license, but you can fish for trout without a salmon li cense. There ain't no salmon, but it keeps us suckers out of jail, if we got a salmon license. I've got to pay $125 for a shotgun, to shoot pheasants from off the top of some farmer's No Tresspassing sign. If he falls on the farmer's side of the fence, he eats him. If he falls oh the side where I am, he belongs to the game warden. I should worry, I don't hit the pheasant in the first place. This is luxurious shootin', so I pay $20 luxury tax on the gun. I go out to shoot a duck in a pile of cat tails, freeze to death and stand in ice water all day. I never had it so good, it costs me $3 for duck stamps and every time I shoot a hole in the smog, it costs another luxury tax on the shotgun shells. Everything in Oregon ain't that bad. You don't have to have a license to shoot pen guins, unless they're walking. Some things is even cheap er than they used to be. Take switch engines for in stance. They used to cost $100,000. Today, you can buy a good used switch engine for only $1. You do have a cow pasture and a track don't you? You won't need a driver's license for a switch engine before 1962. Everett Acklin, Ashland, Ore. On Charity To the Editor: Did you ever see a wounded white leghorn chicken? Then did you note how practically every hen in the chicken yard picked on it? They either kept at it till poor biddy was about dead or your ire was sufficiently aroused to isolate the victim. I think we humans are a bit like chickens at times. Back in school I was called chicken sometimes. Perhaps I deserved the name, at least when I would join in with the crowd to down somebody. Don't worry. I got it back with interest. Reminds me of a local fam ily. They haven't been around quite long enough to get a foothold. In fact a certain agency paid by us taxpayers to help the needy, refused aid. These folks hadn't lived here long enough and were of fered help to get back to where they came from. Might have been interesting to have had them go and then apply for public aid on the other end. Wonder if they would have been told the same tiling there. I've heard of being be tween the, frying pan and the fire. Maybe that would have been -it. - . Sure, there are lots of folks who make a habit of depend ing on others. Yet when I see a family with three little ones, a husband who has worked hard and because of sickness had to slow down, then when he wants and tries to find work there is none- well I wonder? Sure he needs medical help but how is he to get it. True," he " should have studied when younger for a profession, then he Menace wouldn't have been in such a fix. I wonder how many mothers in this area have been to the place where you had no milk for the baby, much less for the other chil dren? The nipple broke on baby's bottle and you didn't have a dime to buy a new one. At the same time you were worried day and night be cause the landlord wanted his back rent. We can easily sit in our comfortable homes while right around us such conditions ex ist. The tears of gratitude on the mother's face as she ac cepts a Christmas food basket are touching. But giving shouldn't end at Christmas. By the way if any of you readers should know of even some odd jobs nearby, let the writer know. I could tell a lot more but space does not permit. I'm glad God knows each of our hearts and doesn't misjudge us. Henry Johnson Jr. 2400 Highway 66 Ashland, Ore. Forest Incident' To the Editor: When living on a homestead in the moun tains a long while ago, one day we were surprised to welcome a cat that greeted us by answering to the name of "Tommy." He was black and white spotted and. indeed was what we called "an edu cated cat." Tommy was often at my heels on tramps through the "hills and woods" on pros pecting days. Even when he caught a mouse or mole in the middle of the night, I would always open the cabin door in response to his meow, as a welcome servant. On going to the mail box, one mile to the R.F.D. route, Tommy would generally lie in wait at the foot of the hill until I returned to where he was always waiting. One sum mer evening on return trip home, I spied some black ob jects on the trail ahead com ing toward us. Stopping abruptly, Tommy soon made a by-pass as we were passing a mother skunk and four kits heading down to the flat lands, with the tails of her brood all bushed upwards. It was a lucky coincidence, as I imagined the mother skunk telling her family in case of sudden attack, "Let us stop and (s)pray." Bert Kissinger, 520 Boardman st., Medford. Why No Doctor? To the Editor: I am very concerned about the letter Mr. R. Smithson wrote con cerning his small emergency at Rogue Valley hospital, and the unavailability of a doctor. When the drive for contri butions to help build our hos pital was being made, we were contacted, as was most every one. Before signing the do nation card I asked the gen tleman about emergency fa cilities, and if a doctor would be on duty at aU times. He assured me there would be, which was the main reason we contributed to this effort. Now, I find this is not true. Why?" , Mrs. Leonard Matheus ; 1124 West 10th st. ; Medford Responsibility ' To the Editor: Sunday's ar ticle on ' Caryl Chessman points up the false doctrine which underlies much of the trouble in our society today. Without taking "sides as to whether Chessman should die or not, I am convinced that he has no business out of prison with his present atti tude. Chessman claims he is not responsible for whatever he does because of brain disease. The psychiatrists ir effect Matter of Fact By 'Joseph Alsop The Missile Gap: Basic Facts (The following article is the first in a series of six.) Washington-A deeply dis turbing conflict of the high est official opinion, on the O sole problem wnich literai 1 y involves the survival of the United States, was unobtrusively revealed last week. The prob lem of the josepb alsop missile gap was painted in the rosiest, most reassuring colors in Con gressional testimony by the able new Secretary of De fense, Thomas Gates, and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Nathan Twin ing. General Twining even suggested that it was down right unpatriotic to regard the missile gap as constitut ing a problem. Almost simultaneously, the same problem was painted in the most somber and alarm ing colors by the Strategic Air Commander, Gen. Thomas Power. Virtually no attention was given to the ex traordinary speech, before the New York Economic Club, by the man who has more responsibility than any one else for bridging the mis sile gap. Yet the message of SACs brilliant leaders was as grave as possible, as can be seen from the following excertps: "TF (the Soviets) could ef--"- f ectively threaten us from a position of such mil it a r y superiority that we would feel unable to defend ourselves, our cabability to resist . . . would be greatly reduced, if not nullified. (Such) military superiority would be achieved through accumulation of (enough) bal listic missiles to destroy our retaliatory forces before they could be launched. Surpris inelv. this would not take very many missiles under present conditions . . . The to tal number of installations and facilities from which we can launch nuclear-armed ah' craft or missiles at this mo ment is only about 100. All of these facilities present 'soft targets' that is, they could suffer crippling dam age even (from) a near miss "... It would take an av erage of three missiles, in their current stage of devel opment, to give an aggressor a mathematical probability of 95 per cent that he can de stroy one given soft target, from 5,000 miles away. This means that, with only some 300 ballistic missiles, the So viets . could ..virtually ..wipe out our entire nuclear strike capability within a span of 30 minutes. (Emphasis is Gen eral Power's.) To further heighten this threat, only about half these missiles would have to be ICBMs. The rest could be the smaller in termediate range ballistic missiles." THESE WORDS, so terrible in their . implications as will be seen, were in the hands of the Pentagon cen sorship for no less than three weeks. During this intermin able "processing," General Power's speech was exten sively pruned and toned down. If General Power's facts could have been at tacked, the censors would surely have pruned them too. Hence the foregoing must be accepted as the first au thoritative statement, from a source commanding absolute belief, of the missile capabil- agree with him, saying only that "society must be pro tected" from his "psychopa thic personality." Both are wrong. Chessman has a will which determines what he will do. He has control of his will. He can choose to do whatever he decides i.o do. There is nobody but Caryl Chessman who can control this. Unless he is brainwashed Communist style, he is a free moral agent. Brain disease, poor environment, poor here dity, unfortunate experiences while a fetus -none of these make any difference. What applies to Caryl Chessman applies to every one else. If our family coun sellors, juvenile psychologists, "progressive", ministers, and others who make a living from taxes andor private contributions would admit this, they might be able to do some good in stopping ju venile delinquency, and might even help some people instead of just making things worse by excusing what used to be called sin as "sickness need ing treatment" and expect ing those harmed to let it go and be helpful in "rehabili tation of mental illness suf ferers." This does not mean eye-for-eye and tooth-for-tooth. It does mean making individuals assume responsibility for their actions. Parker Bailey 542 "A" st. Ashland, Ore. ! j U.S. Patience Still Continues In Face of Castro's Insults By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign Editor Cuba's Fidel Castro fires new charges against the Unit ed States faster than bullets from a revolu tionary torn mygun these days. But the United States con tinues to treat him with great pa tience. The provo cations have PtuJ Newsom been many, the latest result ing in U.S. Ambassador Phil ip W. Bonsai's recall to Wash ington for "consultations." Whether he will return to Havana still is anybody's guess. Within the last three months, Castro has: In late October accused the United States of "aggression" against Cuba charges form ally rejected by the U.S. In November repeated charges "that planes from the United States bombed two sugar mills and that criminal ity the Soviets now need to bring this country to its knees. As might have been ex pected, General Power did not overtly challenge the views expressed by Secretary Gates and General Twining. But the challenge is plain enough and terrible enough, if you place General Power's statement of facts against its background of theory. The theory of deterrence, which gives the key to Gen. Power s speech, is not merely accept ed by General Power and Secretary Gates and General Twining. It is also accepted by Nikita S. Khrushchev, as he disclosed in the most sig nificant passage of his recent speech to the Supreme Soviet. IN BRIEF, true deterence depends on careful calcu lations of "first strike capabil iey" and "counter-strike cap ability." The United States today, for instance, has enough nuclear striking pow er to destroy the Soviet Un ion ten times over. But the Soviet Union today also has formidable striking power. The United States therefore has no "first strike capabil ity," if our first strike can not take out all the pinpoint targets . presented by the So viet panoply of nuclear pow er. We have first of all to destroy this power before it gets off the ground. If we cannot do this, our first strike will merely trigger the Soviet "counterstrike capabil ity." If we are thus faced with the prospect of national destruction bv the enemy's counter-strike, we are effec tively "deterred." Just this is our present situation, ac cording to Khrushchev. Furthermore, as Gen Pow er admitted, America's nu clear striking power, 'though vast, is also vulnerable to missile attack. This is because our power, mainly SAC, is concentrated in a few targets, lacks effective warning, and so on. For these reasons, a small number of Soviet mis siles - General Power says 300 - will be enough to wipe out virtually all our nuclear power before it can get off the ground. With these mis siles in their armory, the So viets will not need to fear our counter-strike; and our deterrent will then cease to deter. This was of course the ex-. act situation that General Power grimly described. It could be. he implied, the true American situation before very long. His description was so grim for two reasons: his frank admission of .our deterrent's extreme vulner ability; and his startlingly low estimate of the number of missiles the Soviets would need to destroy our deterrent. THERE IS only one way to reconcile General Power's statement of the facts with the interpretation of the facts offered to Congress by Secretary Gates and General Twining. General Power ob viously suspects that the So viets may soon have " the smaller number of operation al missiles required to destroy our deterrent. But Secretary Gates and General Twining are convinced, as they have testified, that it is absolutely impossible for the Soviets to have this number of missiles within the period cf our de terrent's vulnerability. General Twining and Sec retary Gates have derived this comforting conviction, as they also testified, from the National Intelligence Es timates. Thus two questions immediately present them selves. Are the National Es timates correct? And even if the estimates are correct, is it permissible to gamble the whole national future on mere estimates? These ques tions will be examined in the next article of this series. (c) 1960 New York Herald Tribune Inc. y IP? airborne incursions into Ha vana . . . caused two dead and 48 wounded persons."

In the 13 months since his revolutionary forces toppled the regime of Fulgencio Ba tista and as Castro himself has taken on more and more Washington Report By WILLIAM SECOND FRONT Washington - The Republi cans are putting unusually heavy firepower into the sec- ond front which fortune 1 has permitted i them to open early against the Democrats in this major election year. The with drawal' of Gov. Nelson William S. White Rockefeller of of New York from competi tion for the Presidential nomi nation has done more than leave Vice-President Richard Nixon as the unchallenged heir to that place. It has also given the national G.O.P. or ganization professionals a free run of six months in which to concentrate not on Presi dential politics but on Con gressional politics. If a real struggle for the top nomination had persisted, the Republican National Com mittee would have been hip deep in the resulting compli cations until after the G.O.P. national convention at Chi cago in July. Nobody, would have had time to give more than a lick and a promise to the secondary job of trying to improve the Republican situ ation in Congress. VOW, however, Senator Thruston Morton of Ken tucky, the national committee chairman, has pooled the com mittee's resources with those of the G.O.P. Senate and House campaign committees They are aU gunning together for Congressional seats. The notion of "the team" happily at work in Washing tion is not always anything more than a slogan. But in this case it really does look that Morton, perhaps because he is a Congressional type himself, has got his own out fit in tandem with the Repub lican Senate and House cam paign committees. These ordi narily go pretty much on their own way, sometimes more as rivals than allies of the national committee. All these working Republi cans know perfectly well, of course, that the 2 to 1 Demo cratic majority in the Senate is so big that even with all luck, the Republicans could not regain control there. They do believe, however, that there is just a chance, if very slight, to overturn Democrat Counsel With . .

Cuba's greatest single ex port is sugar and its greatest single customer, the United States. Yet so far the U.S. has refused to use the tremendous economic pressure it could bring to bear against Cuba by reducing the Cuban sugar quota and allowing other na tions who have been clamor ing for a part of the U.S. market to up their supply. The official U.S. position has been that the Cuban peo ple should not be made to suffer for the sins of Castro. There is at the moment no reason to believe that Castro will turn to more moderate advisers. In fact there is evidence his regime is turning more and more to the left and that his closest relations soon will be with Red nations. Meanwhile, he will continue his plunge toward economic suicide, delayed only by the temporary income he derives from seized properties. S. WHITE ic control of the House of Representatives. ACCORDINGLY, a master plan has been drawn up to hit heavily into 90 of the 437 Congressional districts. These are marginal House seats, meaning that a little voting switch could turn them from Democratic to Republican. Morton's national commit tee is preparing a greater con tribution, in every way, to this effort than is normally so. It is going to put in more money than usual. It is help ing to set up various advisory groups which will screen prospective Republican Con gressional candidates so as to turn up the most attractive of the lot. It is enlisting a "supplemen tary force" of businessmen and professional men to act as a counter-movement to the labor-farmer forces allied to the Democrats. Special efforts are being made to bring into this "sup plementary force" what the national committee people rather grandly call "the heal ing arts." This means physic ians, nurses, dietitians, hos pital administrators and so on. (Committee officials have a deadpan awareness that when you call a doctor or a nurse a member of "the healing arts," you don't make him or her exactly furious at you.) MOST SIGNIFICANT of all, "'the very core of G.O.P. Congressional campaign strat egy involves a reversal of that followed, through the Eisenhower years. . The inten tion is to run Congressional candidates on their own pow er - and never mind Nixon's coattails. Again and again such candidates were run and generally without success - on President Eisenhower's coattails. Nixon himself is hand in glove with this switch. For he knows that he has two prob lems: first, to get elected President; but next, to make a go of the job. He wants a Republican Congress if he can get it and he recognizes that the odds remain that he cannot. But at least he wants Republican side of the House made up of men strong in their own right at home. Coattail fellows, even when elected, are rarely entrenched enough to do much good for very long.
