". . . for him and ma" ; j Durno It appears that Congressman Charles 0. Por ter's rival will be State Sen. Ed Durno of Med ford. He's a good man. But Mt. Porter's previous opponent, Paul Geddes of Roseburg, was a good man, too. Yet many persons who were disturbed about Mr. Porter's activities voted for him a second time. And he won, somewhat because voters ap proved of him, but also because they were of fended by the character of the Geddes campaign. Dr. Durno would be well advised to study the Geddes campaign and learn from it. B Y THE TIME election day arrived in 1958, Mr. Geddes was sounding like a cross be tween Joe McCarthy and Everett Dirksen. He was really neither. It did him no credit that he per mitted his managers to make him sound like a reactionary and a McCarthyite. Dr. Durno, we hope, will wage a positive cam paign. His record in the Legislature last session was good. The man showed real ability. Therefore he ought to have positive ideas of his own. Let's hear them. AS the incumbent, Mr. Porter is open to attack. But that attack should be on issues, not on the personal level that the Geddes campaign often descended to. We hope there will be no repeating of ridiculous assertions that Mr. Porter is lazy, which he certainly isn't. Nor are voters likely to take kindly to new criticism of Mr. Por ter for the wide-ranging field of his interests. A congressman should be interested in more than just pork for the home district. The attack should be on the position Mr. Porter has taken in these excursions into international affairs, not just on the fact that he has taken them. Eugene Register-Guard. Invitation For A Law A federal grand jury now has found no cause for prosecution in the case of Mack Charles Parker, Negro lynch victim. But two things are beyond dispute in the Parker case: 1 He was lynched. 2. No one has been apprehended or convicted for that barbarous crime. PREVIOUSLY, lynching had been dying out in the South. But because the Parker case is so blatently being left unsolved, it may have an ef fect on public opinion kidnap case, which forced a field previously preserved to the states. If so, a local description of the federal grand jury action as a, "triumph for Mississippi jus tice may turn ironic should the triumph help push civil rights legislation or an anti-lynch law through Congress. DEYOND the two unavoidable facts stated above, the public record in the case is blur red. At the core of the mysteiy lies a complete FBI report on the case a report spurned by a county judge and grand jury and left effectively suppressed by the refusal of a second grand jury o take action. This very lack of action makes the FBI docu ment a likely (and legitimate) source of infor mation for any congressional committee study ing ways of constructing a loophole-free anti lynch law. llE BELIEVE it is preferable for communi " ties North or South to govern them selves. But we also believe that responsible citi zens in those communities do not wish to stand before the world as supporters of lynch law. When a town such as Poplarville, Mississippi, proves itself unwilling or unable to prevent or punish lynching, some new legal power at a higher level of government is needed. The grand jury action in Biloxi is a clear invitation for Congress to devise a federal anti lynching law. Christian-Science Monitor. Round Three on Drug Prices A popular tranquilizing ding of American manufacture costs as little as 85 cents for 50 tablets in Argentina. Here 50 tablets of the same brand cost $5.52. The figures come from recent hearings of the Senate Antitrust and Monopoly subcommittee headed by Sen. Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.). These and other like disclosures on -pricing of anti biotics as well as the happy pills assure an alert audience for the third round of hearings begin ning Tuesday, Feb. 23. HTHIS time the Senate group is going to put con A sumers on the stand. Judging from the volume of mail the subcommittee has received from all over the country, many letters coming from old folks on pensions, the consumer witnesses will be forceful and articulate. For his part, Kefauver in winding up the hearings on tranauilizers. Jan. 30. had consider able praise for small marmfarhivprs wVm pnTnhiTie low prices with high standards and controls.

These programs have a com mon purpose. It is to prevent the expansion of Communism beyond the frontiers which it reached before 1945 and 1954. In Europe this frontier is the line of the armistice of World War II, including the special case of West Berlin. In the Far East the line is that reached by the Chinese Com munist revolution when it conquered mainland China. It is also the line of the armis tice in the Korean War and the line of the armistice in the Indo-Chinese war. The object of American policy, which was first formu lated by President Truman, is to contain the Russians, the Chinese, the North Koreans, and the Vietminese at this frontier between the two great coalitions. The main military instrument of this policy is the over-all military power of the United States. But in or der to exert this power effi ciently, we require the sup port of allies like Britain and France and the use of bases in many other countries on the periphery of the Communist coalition. The foreign aid pro gram is made up in order to finance those allies and other countries who will not or can not wholly finance them selves. ALTHOUGH these programs are all designed for the same purpose -to contain the spread of Communism they have become much more so phisticated and complicated than they were originally. At the time of the seizure of Czechoslovakia in 1943, the blockade of West Berlin in 1948, and the attack on South Korea in 1950, our policy of mutual aid for collective de fense was directed against overt military aggression. In the last years of Truman and the first years of Eisenhower our military ' planning was based on the idea that what had happened when the North Koreans invaded South Ko rea was likely to happen in Europe and in the Middle JEast. This was the period when Gen. Eisenhower was the Su preme Commander in West ern Europe. It was then that he approved plans for a West European army which would have been more than twice as big as the best that NATO has ever been able to achieve. Since those days, since the early fifties, the basic mili tary situation in the world has changed greatly. The So viet Union has achieved pari ty in nuclear weapons. This has reduced our nuclear pow er from that of an instrument of world diplomacy to a na tional deterrent against at tack on the United States. At the same time the Soviet Un ion has developed a high rate of economic growth which acts as a very powerful ex ample and magnet in the un derprivileged countries. This economic achievement and this concentration upon econ omic progress in the Soviet Union is the basis of the So viet campaign for a military truce in the cold war and for disarmament. " THESE historic changes in the world balance of power have affected deeply our task of holding together the coali tion to contain the spread of Communism. For one thing, the threat and possibility of overt military aggression by the Soviet Union has declined almost to the vanishing point. Menace SAINTS Q)M MmilA' HOWE'? Lippmann There is, as a result, some thing unreal about building up armies on the Soviet fron tier to fight the Red Army. It is unreal because there is no likely threat from the Red Army and it is doubly unreal because these armies would be impotent if there were. Yet, and this is a crucial al though sophisticated point, in the underdeveloped countries it is the armies that make and unmake the governments. We have learned that lesson in Iraq and elsewhere. What is described as military aid and defense support in our ap propriations is in a very con siderable degree a subsidy to keep the army on the side Of the government. SINCE the purpose of these subsidies is not whoUy or essentially military, adminis tration is ' often extravagant and wasteful. Worse still, be cause of the conspicuously high standard of life which prevails in the American arm ed forces abroad, our mili tary aid is an almost certain recipe for getting the United States disliked. Nevertheless, these subsidies are a political necessity, and they cannot be discontinued until there has been organized a substitute in place of them as the source of stability. We shall have to go on with the subsidies for the present. But we should do this with a clear understanding that they cannot go on very much long er, that the United States can not expect for the whole fu ture to pay for a coalition of small client states in Asia. THE faint beginnings of a new and better system to replace the existing one are indicated in the President's message. One of the indica tions is the emphasis he gives to a greater use of the World Bank and other international agencies to which the richer nations can contribute. An other indication, and a most encouraging one, is that econ omic aid is not to be scattered about but is to be focussed and directed upon key coun tries, particularly upon India, Pakistan, and Taiwan, where there is a good prospect of proving that poverty can be conquered without totalitar ianism. - Still another indication is to be found in the last two paragraphs of the President's message. They strike a new note in the whole discussion. Here the President states the truth which will outlast all the changes of our policy. It is that we are "a privileged nation" and because of that we have a duty to the less privileged nations. This is, it seems to me, the right ground on which to stand. It is better than to try at every point in the argument to find some shred of selfish self-interest to mask our im pulses of generosity. And I have a strong conviction that if we founded our policy ff aid on the ground of duty, our people would respond to it gladly. For in trying to prove that when we are generous we are really selfish, we find our selves pretending, rather fee bly and ineffectively, that a whole row of little countries with no military capacity whatsoever are indispensable military allies of the United States. Our people have prov ed that they are generous. They hate to look foolish. It would be better to say that these small countries are poor and that they are hungry and that they are sick, and that we mean , to help them. (Copyright 1960 New York Herald Tribune. Inc.) . , Matter of Fact THE DISARMAMENT MESS Washington - During the past fortnight, this city has offered a spectacle that has been richly comic, not a little humiliating, and almost in credible, all at once. Ministerial representatives of Britain, France, Italy, and Canada came here close to two weeks ago, in order to discuss with the American government the Western po sition On disarmament. East West disarmament talks are due to be reopened on March 15. After that date looms the summit meeting, in May, with top level disarmament talks conspicuous on the agenda. The need for an agreed West ern position is therefore ur gent, to put it mildly. Yet for 10 days, the Ameri can policy-makers had to avoid substantive discussions with their British, French, Italian, and Canadian guests, for the beautifully simple, frankly confessed reason that the American government had not yet decided what its own position on disarmament ought to be. Last Tuesday, a lame, empty American "position" paper was offered to the allied con ferees. But this not only fail ed to satisfy the British, French, and other allied rep resentatives. It also by no means represented the views of the State Department. And as these words are written, the final, intra - Administra tion debate about the Ameri can disarmament position is at last under way. THESE extraordinary facts are far from exhausting this episode's sheer fantasy. American and Soviet negotia tors had been talking about disarmament, almost non-stop from 1955 onwards until a year or so ago. But last sum mer, a new committee headed by the Boston lawyer, Charles Coolidge, was suddenly named for the avowed purpose of making up the American gov ernment's mind about disarm ament. While the Coolidge commit tee labored, Our diplomats freely, told our allies that they could not tackle the disarma ment problem until the Cool idge committee had made up the Administration's mind about it. At length, a report emerged from the commit tee's labors. It was promptly christened the "mouse" in the inner circle, since it included virtually no disarmament proposals at all. And for this reason, the report was prompt ly interred as altogether too fruitless. By this time, another law yer, the able New Yorker, Frederick Eaton, had been named to present the U.S. brief on disarmament. But Eaton had no brief to present after the interment of the Coolidge report. So the strug gle began all Over again. And it went on long enough to leave this country's represen tatives at first irresolutely mute and then dimly mum bling, at a conference with In the Day's News By FRANK From Washington: The agriculture depart ment's livestock inventory, just completed, shows that the nation s horse and mule population totaled 3,089,000 Jan. 1. It was down only 2 per cent from a year ago, which represents a consider able slowdown in the rate of disappearance of horses and mules-which, over the last decade, has ranged from 6 to 13 per cent. The department's livestock experts report, however, that there isn't much likelihood that the downward trend in horse and mule numbers will stop, as on Jan. 1 the count of horse and mule noses indicat ed that of the 3 million only 196,000 head were colts under two years. Department offi cials said this is not a suffi cient number 'to provide re placements for older work stock. THAT brings up some inter esting agricultural history. The horse and mule popula tion reached its high point in 1918, at which time there were 26,723,000 horses and mules on American farms. That was about the time the tractor was beginning to come into use in a fairly big way The coming of the tractor posed a problem for Ameri can agriculture. These 26-odd million horses and mules were corn, oat and hay burners. The corn, hay and oats they consumed required, some 90 MILLION acres of' land for their production. On the other hand, the trac tors consumed GASOLINE, and gasoline isn't a crop. It comes out from UNDER the land. When the wells are drilled, the land is still there. The problem was' what to do with the corn, oats and hay that had been grown on these 90 million acres. T was argued, quite heated - ly, that these gasoline-burn By Joseph Alsop Western allied representatives planned many weeks earlier. I THE reason for aU this is a deep division in the gov ernment. The State Depart ment, and especially Secre tary of. State Christian A. Herter, thinks that we must certainly talk about nuclear disarmament, if we talk about disarmament at all. The Atomic Energy Commission and particularly the commis sion chairman, John R. Mc Cone, favors discussion of nu clear disarmament with extra emphasis on the need for a broad framework of general disarmament. But the De fense Department policy makers, and above all the Joint Chiefs of Staff, have taken the position that any discussion of nuclear disarm ament is Unthinkable. On the one hand, the Old psychology of nuclear monop oly obstinately survives in the Pentagon, in flat defiance of the grim facts of recent his tory. On the other hand, it is thought to be too expensive and too painful, nowadays, for Western nations to put ground armies, in the field, as they once used to do. Hence the Pentagon argues that the West dare not lay down its nuclear weapons while confronted with the populous "hordes" of Rus sians and Chinese. TT WAS this psychology that -made the Coolidge report so mouselike. It was this psy chology that caused the Amer ican position paper of last Tuesday to be such an im poverished thing, including no really major proposals, and with no commitment in all its six pages to discuss nu clear disarmament at any time, even in the distant fu ture after proved success in the so-called first stages. After the British, French, and the rest protested this po sition paper's emptiness, Sec retary Herter was at length enabled to appeal the great is sue to President Eisenhower. Essentially, the question Her ter has had to ask the Presi dent is whether or not we real ly want disarmament, after having given vent to so much moral blather on the subject. All the trouble arose, of course, from the President's failure to decide this absolute ly basic question at the very outset. This is dangerous trouble, too. There are clear signs of the same kind of split in the Soviet government that exists in the American government, with the majority, headed by Nikita S. Khrushchev, really wanting to see whether ser ious disarmament is not pos sible. There is one chance in three, or four, or five, of really accomplishing some thing. But the chance will surely pass if the American government merely continues to flounder in its self-made bog of inter - departmental committees. (Copyright 1960 New York Herald Tribune, Inc.) JENKINS ing monsters would WRECK THE MARKET for corn, oats and hay. Besides, it was con tended, the farmer who tilled his acres with horses and mules PRODUCED HIS OWN FUEL. Thus he got his fuel cheap. SO What would happen to him if, in addition to having to buy his fuel from the gasoline merchants, instead of pro ducing it himself, he had to find markets somewhere else for all he corn, oats and hay that from time immemorial had. been consumed by the horses and mules? W ELL As everybody knows The tractor won out. Here's one reason: Horses had to be fed. That look labor. They had to be curried. They had to be har nessed. They had to be taken out and hitched to the plow or other machinery. Come noon, they had to be unhitched, tak en in to the barn and fed. Then, come 1 o'clock, they had to be taken back to the field, hitched up again and come evening it all had to be done over again. Including beddmg down the work horses and the work mules. The upshot of it was that if the farmer was to be in the field at the crack of dawn ho had to be up far ahead of the crack of dawn to get his horses and mules ready to go to work. With the tractor, all he had to do- was eat his breakfast, stroll out to the tractor, crank it up, climb on the seat and he had it made. IS IT any wonder the tractor won? The wonder is that there are still some three million horses and mules left in the United States of America. P0TB-UOC (By M-T Staff and Contributors) Some might find this diffi cult to' believe, but the Mail Tribune newsroom has gone on a sports-car kick. Our women's editor, who is a youthful-looking well, she has one or two gray hairs succumbed the other day, and recorded her own version of what happened in her Pot pourri column. And do you know she had the gall to keep it a secret from her colleagues for FOUR days? Anyway, one of our young men, who has been driving a sedate and practical little Volkswagen, suddenly decid ed that that is the life for him, and careened off to a place where they deal in little sports cars. He came back with a look in his eye which indicated he'd never be the same again. Anyway, the rest of us, who drive eminenUy respectable vehicles, ranging from "econ omy" foreign cars through the ranks of Chevy, Ford and Plymouth, have had our ear drums assaulted with verbal impressions of how the en gines (or is it motors?) sound; gas economy; the difficulties of ingress and egress, and such-like esoterica. The "quote of the week," however, from our slightly bewitched society writer, was this: "I wish I could figure out some way of keeping my shoes on while driving that car!" This one has been kicking around our file lor some weeks now, and perhaps this is lust as eood a time to spring it on you as any.

Reporting back, he said, a man dressed as an old-time logger, complete with hooked peavey, patrolled the speak ers' stand, and when speakers went over-time, used the pea vey hook to yank them off, "We should have such a man at every meeting we attend,' he commented. This same reporter cov ered Congressman Judd's speech here recently, and among the gathering of Re publicans, he spotted a woman tiptoeing out in her stocking feet, holding her shoes. Hm. Wonder if SHE drives a sports car. TOO. Back at the logging confer ence for a moment, our man said there was a series of car toons depicting the "progress" of the lumber industry. The first showed a giant tree-trunk being dragged out of the woods by one ox driven by one man. The next, two oxen and two men dragging a smaller log. The third - three oxen, three men; and so on to the last - a few tiny logs being manhandled by giant machinery operated by two men, with another directing Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF- TtvyKKN" AND IF you encounter a ghost, the only thing to VY fear, it seems, is fear itself.

They are the Lincoln Legend, paper of Lincoln Elementary school; the Jackson Journal, of Jackson school, and the Hoover HiLlte. of Hoover school. Here we go: Book review from the Jack son Journal, written by Greg ory Meadors of the fourth grade, on the book "Ben Franklin": "When Ben was little he wanted to be an inventor. One day when he was older he took a kite and put on his swimming suit." He took his kite to the river and floated on his back with his kite. He moved, and he invented something." Here's part of James Ben net's report on Mr. Shurt left's fifth grade room: "Mr. Shurtleff's class is prepar ing for an Assembly in March. Some of the stu dents want a St. Patrick's Day theme, some want a musical program, and some want a pet show. If we have all three it will be quite interesting." In the Hoover HiLite, Scott Struble, of the third grade, reports on "communication," after studying the subject: We studied about commu nication. There are lots of ways to communicate. Here are some of them. You can communicate by telephone, train, mail, boat, smoke sig nals, telegraph, and many more ways. Two of them are pony express and talking." From the same publica tion, a lesson in science by Richard Schuli of the fifth gTade: "Put salt in a kettle. Then put water in. Turn on the burner. The mole cules will spread apart. Then, turn the burner off. After the water has evapo rated the salt will still bo there."

Here it is: "Twas quiet all around, ' 'Twas quiet on the hill "And quiet on the ground. " 'Twas quiet up above "And quiet down below. "And the quiet was the quietness "Of softly falling mow." Mark Miner, of the fourth grade, was inspired to write a Valentine's Day poem, as follows: "Valentine's Day makes us think of love, "When Cupid flies above. "When Cupid shoots us with his arrows, "We fall in love like a cou ple of sparrows. "As we play out in the sua "We have a lot of fun.
