In the Days News
By FRANK JENKINS
The aspirin people who
have never been accused of
being AWOL when the busi
ness brains were being por
tioned out - have come up
with a Jigger enabling the un-der-the-weather
customer to
put a coin in the slot and
take out two aspirins in a
neat little plastic package that
unfolds into a drinking cup.
That's progress.
In these modern days,
which are full of problems,
nothing comes in handier than
aspirin.
1 Mzzi
ORE progress:
Americans have forged
ahead of the British in a field
where the British once ruled
the roost. The field is TUR-
BITS.
What'i a turbit?
A turbit is a pigeon with a
very short beak. Because of
its short beak, the baby turbit
can't reach into its parent's
beak to get food, as the ordi
nary pigeon does. So the tur
bit fanciers mate two turbits
and two long-beaked birds of
another breed. When the eggs
are laid, the breeders switch
them. Thus long-beaked par
ents bring up the turbits and
short-beaked turbit parents
bring up the long-b e a k e d
youngsters.
The British were once far
out in front of us in the turbit
business, but this cross-breed
ing device has enabled us to
forge away out in front of
them.
Co-
J Let's not lose faith in our
country. We may be short on
missiles, but we're long on
turbits.
"PEPORTS from trained ob-
servers in the Dominican
Republic (down in the trou
bled Caribbean) indicate that
the Trujillo regime is facing
its most serious crisis in its 30
years of despotic rule.
Good news?
It could be, but probably
Isn't. Cuba's experience sug
gests that when one despot
throws out another despot the
No. 2 despot is apt to be worse
than the No. 1 despot.
1I7HAT ahall we do about It?
' Why not fall back on
the Monroe Doctrine - which
forbids the establishment by
Old World nations of a foot
hold in the Western Hemis
phere? Communism may not
be a foreign NATION, in the
strictest diplomatic sense of
the word, but it is a foreign
ideology - and ideologies can
be dangerous when they are
utterly foreign to everything
wt believe in.
AS THIS is written, it's
snowing cats and dogs
and Plymouth Rock roosters,
to borrow an antiquated but
expressive idiom.
Are we down-hearted?
" NO! NO! A thousand times
no!
It's filling up the reservoirs
with water - and here in the
State of Jefferson water is
modern GOLD.
Roseburg Board
j OKs Rebuilding
Roseburg - (UPD - The Rose
burg Urban Renewal Board
has approved recommenda
tions of a 70-member advis
ory council to get on with the
rebuilding of blast-shattered
downtown Roseburg.
The advisory council Wed
nesday night said the city
could not wait for a federal
decision about restoring the
downtown area destroyed in a
dynamite-truck explosion last
year.
Chairman Ralph De Moisey
said, "we are convinced that
we can rebuild and modern
ize our own community bet
ter and faster without help
from the Federal govern
ment." The board also approved a
low-level bridge over the
North Umpqua river which
would make rebuilding of the
downtown area easier.
HALLECK EYES POST
St. Paul, Minn.-OJPD-House
Minority Leader Charles Hal
leck said Wednesday he
thinks he has a good chance
of being the next House
speaker. Halleck said that if
the GOP doesn't capture the
House in the November elec
tion "we'll be real close. We
have a fighting chance to
win." If the Republicans do
win, he said, he expects to be
speaker.
