Cars and Smog It will be interesting to see how well the new Calif omia legislation requiring anti-smog devices on automobiles works out. There have been some pretty optimistic fore casts about it. Smith Griswold, director of the Los Angeles county air pollution district, said "there is no question" but what the new law will mean southern California will be rid of smog within five or six years. Final design of the devices has not yet been chosen. Auto manufacturers and others are work ing on several different designs, and the law sets up a state board to certify successful ones. A FTER this is done, all new cars will be re quired to be equipped with anti-smog attach ments, and, unless counties or air pollution 'dis tricts provide exemptions, mercial vehicles will have them after a certain period of time. How well they work Medford, particularly in view of the new freeway which in a few years will go through town along the east bank of Bear the air. That will be bad enough; from an aesthetic and town-dividing standpoint. But if, at the same time, it became a chief pall over the downtown insupportable. THE state's air pollution report for Medford, made public last week, mentioned the auto exhaust problem briefly. "A two-day survey was conducted ... to determine If significant concentrations of .the gases and particles which create the Los Angeles type of smog are present In Medford. "This form of air pollution is created by reactions , between unsaturated hydrocarbons, mostly from gaso line and other petroleum fuels, with oxidizing sub stances in the presence ot sunlight. "From samples taken . . . hourly concentrations of oxidant, oxides of nitrogen, carbon monoxide and sulfur dioxide were obtained. The concentrations found were in general below the amounts necessary to create nuisance conditions. However, the tests showed high oxidizing potential present, Indicating possibility of chemical reactions which could cause smog of the Los Angeles type if other contaminants were present In significant amounts. . .- "The . . . samples were taken when conditions were favorable for dilution of air pollutants. For compari son, the procedure should be repeated during the fall and winter season when wind velocity is low and temperature inversion conditions possible." r . ! , 1 1 we may De needing anu-smog devices Here abouts yet. E.A. Confusing Voters in Pendleton or oetter than z to 1, turned down a proposal to junk the city manager form of city government. The campaign was hard fought and, judging by newspaper accounts of it, dirty, in spots. It appeared that a group of Pendleton resi dents were mad at the city manager, so, after they failed to persuade the city council to dis charge the manager, they attacked the entire system of government. THEIR effort failed, as it deserved to do. No public official, no matter what his tal ents, can please everyone. And it seems like a destructive way of going about things to attempt to overturn an entire organization just to get at one man. If a form of government needs changing, change it, on the merits of the matter. If a public official isn't doing his job, see that he's fired. But don't confuse the two. That's what snrtifi Ppnrllnt.nn vnfprs did. hut happily for Pendleton, Now the city council the responsibilities for Computer In a letter to this page the other day, Max Wimmer tossed in some motor vehicle departments computer which in trigued us enough to find the answers.

Dennis the I COfr SUE5S "fflU EVER TREAT ANYBCCV, VOYAV Matter of Fact By jo,.Ph ai.op UNDERDOGGERY Washington-After the Wis consin primary, one point at least is clear. Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey of Minnesota is a past master of underdog gery, which is an important branch of po litical games manship. Only the most brilliant underdoggery could have josKPU alsoi persuaaea so many people that the Wiscon. sin victory of Sen. John F. Kennedy of Massachusetts was really a rather shab by performance. Only under doggery beyond normal com pare could have made the same people say that Humph reay's heavy defeat was really not so very heavy after all. Though Humphrey was run ning, it must be remembered, as the self-prcclalmed "third Senator.'-, from' ' Wisconsin," right in his own political back yard, hia announced purpose was to show that Kennedy could never carry any- Mid- Western state. For this pur pose, he chose to challenge Kennedy in a state notorious for its dislike of well-heeled Easterners, AFTER making this choice Humphrey of course claimed that Wisconsin's con siderable Catholic population constituted an unfair advan tage for Kennedy. But the per centage of Catholics in Humphrey's own Minnesota is slightly larger, If anything, than the percentage in Wis consin. And if Republican Catholics voted for Kennedy in the Wisconsin Democratic primary, there is just as much evidence to show that Repub lican Protestants voted for Humphrey. In addition, Humphrey of course claimed to be "the poor man's candidate." To be sure, Kennedy owns his own plane, whereas Humphrey merely chartered a plane whenever he needed one. To be sure, Humphrey's declared cam paign spending was well be low Kennedy's. But the Hum phrey accounting tactfully and legally omitted the tele vision time, billboard adver tising, and the like, which had been contracted for outside Wisconsin. Adding in the un announced outlays, the Hum phrey campaign was quite plainly just about as well fi nanced as his rival s. By any sane test, therefore, Humphrey was running against Kennedy In Wisconsin rather better than even terms. He also waged a no-holds-barred campaign while Senntor Kennedy avoided the URlier forms of fratricidal warfare. In the outcome, however, Kennedy won a whopping 97 per cent of the vote in the Democratic pri mary. ... KENNEDY also took six of Wisconsin's ten Congres sional Districts, carrying all of them by margins of 99 per cent or more. Mumphrey car ried only two districts, both on the Minnesota border, by comparably comfortable mar gins. In the other two Con gressional Districts that went for Humphrey, the Second and the Tenth, a total switch of only 3.900 votes wouH have given the victory to K nedy. Kennedy further ran ip a huge majority among 'he in dustrial workers, although the workers' union leaders were working hard for Humphrey. Kennedy further won B of the 16 farm counties in central and eastern Wisconsin, al though Humphrey attacked the weak spots In Kennedy's farm record with unbridled ferocity. In fact the more westerly farm counties, which Humphrey has genuinely ser ved as a third Senator, were the Minncsotan'a one main area of success. These he car ried, 26 out of 28. If Kennedy had won this In fil Menace kind of victory at the outset, before the art of underdog gery could be practiced, the Wisconsin result would have been universally accepted as a brilliant triumph for the Mas sachusetts Senator. It could very well have nailed down the big state delegations that Kennedy needs to be nomina ted, without any further ado elsewhere. As matters stand, however, Kennedy has merely achieved an extremely solid success. He must still fight on ward to win decisivley. -. PR Humphrey, meanwhile, the art nf underdog ffprv have this defect, that they may soften a defeat in the eyes of the politiciasn. If do not conceal it from the Humphrey is running as a serious candidate in his own right, his defeat In Wisconsin can be considered as close to final as anything ever is in American politics. After this, he has far less chance than he had at the outset to secure the Democratic Presidential nomination, and his chance at the outset was exceedingly slim. It may be, of course, that Humphrey is not running as a serious candidate. He may be running as a stalking horse for some other candidate. such as Adlal Stevenson or Sen. Stuart Symington of Mis souri. In that case, the Humphrey effort can only be judged af ter the West Virginia voting. Otherwise, his effort has fail ed already. 1 Today & Tomorrow By Walter WISCONSIN It is only the morning af ter the Wisconsin primary as this article is written, and there are not yet available detailed anal ysis of the vvote. No doubt they will throw a little more 5' tt Vt light than we had before on hnuf at (hi. Wslter . . u Liopmenn ' moment tile voters are disposed to vote. But even without these de tails it Is evident that the result in Wisconsin is Inde cisive, that for Kennedy, Humphrey, and for Nixon as well, it has brought forth a Scotch verdict of "Not prov en." The nomination of the Democratic candidate and the outcome of the national elec tion will not be forecast, as some have said, by the Wis consin primary. It will re quire some very fancy Inter preting and inferring from very inadequate facts to treat this primary as a forecast of the election. Thus, as against Humphrey, the Kennedy vote is 57 per cent. But while this is a sub stantial victory, it throws very little light on the na tion a 1 election. Kennedy's vote, for example, is around half-a-mllllon. This is only about one-third of 'he total Eisenhower-Stevenson vote cast in Wisconsin in the na tional election of 1056. More over, though there is evidence that Kennedy's half-a-milllon contain a percentage of Cath olic Republicans who would probably stay with him in November, there is no way of telling how many of Hum phrey's substantial minority would vote for Kennedy in November. e e THE outcome confirms the view that many of us have held for a longe time, that the primary system as it now exists, and the Wisconsin primary rather especially, are not a satisfactory test of who should he nominated fr President. Tho attempt to use few haphazard and scatter ed primaries as a decisive test for the nomination it, It teems 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.

How about that? Now I know that none of us should get sick on the streets of Med ford and go to the Sacred Heart hospital. Of course, in your next to the last dying breath, you could tell them if you had the money for their help. And if you have the loot, you got It made. That is if the nurses could diagnose your ailment. It is also nice to know that our ambulance service is so thoughtful in saving our lives. As for the Camp White doc tors turning the man down, that's nothing new to them. What is wrong with people here? Does a dime mean so much more to them than help ing a poor man who needs help? The poor soul is no doubt a war veteran. And It was all right that with our so-called helpers that we went out to fight for them, but asked noth ing from them unless you have a little green stuff in your pocket book. The article said it wasn't known whether Rogue Valley hospital had been contacted. You needn't worry about what they would have done. I can tell you. When my husband was in there with a heart at tack, the third day, still under an oxygen tent, the office help came to his room and asked him for money to pay his bill They didn't care U you lived or died, ai long as you paid them. I realize that the man that was picked up Monday night might be a drunk, and never paid his bills. But I don't think that gives anyone the right to refuse help to some one that needs help and medi cal care. The only one out of the whole mess that was human was the Medford policeman who tried to help. Yes, we live in a modern civilized world, as long as we remember one thing, not the Good Book, but the green money. Thank you for reading this, even if you don t print it, which I hope you do. Keep up the good work. Print my name, if you like. Mrs. Helen L. Bartley 3428 Chicory Lane Medford llppmann to me, an attempt to short circuit the deliberations of the convention, and to stam pede it. The theory that the nom ination should go to the man who wins the most primaries rests on a number of dubious assumptions. One is that these few scattered primaries with their very different rules are a true sample of the whole national electorate. There is no reason to think that they are, since we know from past experience that in a state like Wisconsin, for example, the primaries do not reliably pre dict the outcome in Novem ber. Another dubious assump tion is that the best candidate and the best President will necessarily be a man who has the time to enter the primar ies, who has the money and the energy and the endurance to fight them, and who has an appetite for the trivialities and the half-truths and the special pleading and the per sonal exhibitionism which are almost the whole of the actual campaigning. It Is not so, and the Wis consin primary campaign, like the Stevcnson-Kcfauver cam paign of 1956, has reduced, it has not raised, the Presi dential stature of the con testants. e AT BOTTOM, the attempt to r e a c h - the nomination through the direct primaries poses the wrong question. It asks whether X can rally more votes than Y, and It by passes the real question, which is whether OC or Y would be the better President ot the United States. If either Kennedy or Humphrey made one serious considered speech on the great national issues, It was, so far as my reading in the newspapers goes, not reported to the nation. This is. I think, a pity. For both Kennedy and Humphrey are in fact well aware of and well educated to the chal lenge which the country must meet In the years immcdi ately ahead of us. Both of them are very eligible men But no one would know this from Wisconsin. And. therefore, I say, let each of them take out some not necessarily represent the the contrary is often the case. Magnified Issue To the Editor: Your article in the April 6 issue of your paper concerning the mis treatment of an individual at the Sacred Heart Hospital was one of the most sorry examples of news reporting that I have seen In some time in print. Not only was the article Incomplete and inaccurate but also obviously smacked of ul terior motivation. If not so, why then, the bland attempt at clarification in the follow ing editorial? Accuracy does not require explanation! To discredit an organiza tion such as the Sacred Heart Hospital, which you have stated to be on the verge of bankruptcy, for lack of char ity is utterly incongruous on the part of any kind of news reporting. There are those among us who desire one central com munity hospital. Their rea sons could be many and varied. It would certainly be a sad day to even think that this magnified issue could be a means to that end, particu larly in view of the many years that Sacred Heart Hos pital has served Jackson county. Ken Corliss, 1564 Myers Lane, Medford Fastest Molasses To the Editor: Did you ever try molasses in der crankcase uf der car? An Ashland man tried it yust vunce, und it vorked.

He had mo lasses in der engine, in der carburetor, in der transmis sion, der crankcase, und mo lasses In der differential. He had molasses in everything but der hotcakes. It cost him vun hundred und fifty dol lars to get der engine out uf der molasses. After dls ting happened, his vife took der five gallon can uf molasses from out uf der garage, und put it in der kitchen. Den she took der five gallon can uf oil from out uf der kitchen, und put It in der garage. Den der pancakes tasted good, like der pancakes should. . Everett Acklin, Ashland, Ore. He Was Shocked To the Editor: I was, to say the least, shocked to read a news Item in Wednesday's paper, that a person was de nied admittance to Sacred Heart hospital because he had previously not paid his bill. Not long ago I remember reading that both hospitals had been receiving county funds for this purpose and were asking for more. What is this world coming to when humans are given less consideration than we would give to a dumb animal? . Camp White is maintained by public tax funds and is supposed to care for veterans, yet they would not send an ambulance for the man. Do the people who refused to help this man consider themselves Christians? If so I would refer them to Mat thew 25: Verses 31 to 46. Benjamin F. Glenn, . 319 North Second St., Central Point, Ore. What Would Christ Have Done? To the Editor: The front page article in Wednesday's Mail Tribune concerning the 2'i hours spent obtaining hos pitalization for an III man, has made me do some thinking. My mind went back to an ac. cident scene last summer just over the Siskiyou summit. The man was In a hurry, the corner was too sharp for the speed he was traveling Result: he piled up, I came on the scene a few minutes later. A state high way crew radioed for an am. bulance. We dared not move the victim. He presented sight we don't care to think of. He lay on his back in a mass ot broken fruit jars with tomato preserves, jam and blood all mixed together. We waited and waited. Finally time from Uiis rushing around shaking hands. Let them stand up on the floor of the Senate and let them speak on some of the great issues. Let them speak to the nation. That would give public opinion and the convention in July something to chew upon. (c) 1960 New York Herald Tribune Ine, ?TLUCK (By M-T Stiff and Contributors) Ana MIP mrli called to remind us that this Thurs day, April 14, it the 48tn an niversary of the fatal night when the Titanic struck an irphere- in the Atlantic, ana sank in less than three hours. It was a dramatic ana traffic moment all rieht. and Ufa u'.ra olaH tn be remind ed of it.

Which reminds us that Bob Corbin. manager of the Medford theaters, brought us a magasine a week or eo ago, containing an article praising him for the job he did in promoting "Dog of Flanders," which was given a preview showing In Med ford at Christmas time. ' We've been idly wondering ever since, in our tew idle moments, how we could legitimately get a plug in for him, but haven't fig ured it out yet. . You know, we thought we were all through with bevies, covies and nides of pheas ants and quail. But we weren't. Not yet. So let It be recorded for all to see that we received two (2) letters, one from Ro land Beach and the other from (Name on File) some times known as "Mr. Med ford," to the effe-'. that a bunch of pheasants is a "nye." With a nye of pheasants, a pride of lions, and a gam the ambulance arrived. We'll briefly skip on from here, but our friend was tak en to Ashland General hospi tal where the 24 facial frac tures, plus the cuts were aU taken care of. Later, when Wally was bet ter, he showed us the ambu lance service's bill. It so hap pened that this ambulance was in Medford on that fateful day. Now it came to light why our long wait. To add to it, our friend's bill showed mile age from Medford and back again. I might add, you don't travel in an ambulance at Greyhound bus rates either. Now back to Wednesday's tale of the 49-year-old transi ent who was suffering from convulsions. Our friend Wally got help and it was evident from the new car he was in that it probably would be a paying case. But "vlth this fellow on Medford't Front street-well, it seems the odds were against him. Do human being have to have a signed statement from the President before they feel authorized to lend a helping hand? What do you suppose Christ would have done had He been there the other evening? Are not we to help the needy? Does one have to be driving a Rolls Royce and have his pockets bulging with gold to have help? We can sit on a church seat every week end and be a member in good and regular standing and be worse off spiritually than the transient in the gutter.
