Measure Recommendations
These are the Mail Tribune's recommenda
tions for the measures on the ballot at the pri
mary election Friday:
(Measures Ballot)
No. 1 Salaries of state legislators yes.
No. 2 For dogs running at large in the
county no recommendation.
No. 51 for dogs running at large within
the city of Medford No.
(Special City Ballot)
No. 51 To annex a small area, entirely
surrounded by the city of Medford in the Big
Y area, to the city Yes.
No. 51 To annex a small area, entirely
surrounded by the city of Medford in the resi
dential area north of Jackson st. and east of
Barneburg rd., to the city Yes.
Raise Their Pay, A Little
Members of the Oregon legislature are shame
fully underpaid.
They receive $50 per month, which does not
even begin to cover their expenses, let alone pay
for their time away from home and businesses.
It effectively limits the membership of the
legislature to those who (1) are independently
wealthy, (2) who are willing to accept special
"subsidies" from special interest groups, and (3)
those who are willing to make a severe financial
sacrifice to serve their state.
"THE increase would cost $136,000 per year more
than at present. This is a drop in the bucket,
considering that members of the legislature have
to pass on budgets totaling nearly a billion dollars.
Oregon must have good legislators to have
good government. Paying them a more adequate,
though still small, salary is one way this objec
tive can be achieved.
It is a good government measure.
We heartily recommend a "yes" vote on this,
which has strong bi-partisan support. E.A.
Those Dog Measures
There is some confusion about the wording
of the dog control measures on Friday's ballot.
In both the county and the city, the ballot
question is phrased this way:"
"For dogs limning at large Yes"
"For dogs running at large No"
If it is read that way
you want to permit dogs to run at large, vote yes;
if you want dogs muzzled or confined, vote no.
(The confusion stems from the fact that one
has to vote "no" to pass a new regulation. Forget
that just read the ballot and vote the way it
indicates.)
1X7E HAVE previously indicated our support
"of the dog control measure in the city of Med
ford. We believe it is only fair to parents, school
authorities, gardeners, and home-owners that the
owners of dogs should assume responsibility for
their actions.
The state law governs
entirely adequate to meet the situation, for it
offers the alternative of a muzzle an antiquated
and unsatisfactory measure of "control."
If Medford voters indicate their aimroval of
dog control we believe the city council would be
well advised to work out a more equitable and
comprehensive ordinance, one that will give bet
ter all-around protection.
But in any event, this measure will serve to
indicate sentiment in the city. If you favor dogs
running unrestricted, vote yes; of you do NOT
favor dogs running unrestricted, vote no. We
shall vote "No".
p'OUNTY residents, too, will have a chance to
vote on a similar dog
Some farmers and
mention hunters legitimately use and need
dogs. Others (like turkey raisers) would be de
lighted to have dogs controlled.
As a city resident, we do not feel in a position
to judge this on its merits, and therefore will
leave our ballot blank on that question. E.A
Two Annexations
The city administration makes an excellent
case i or tne annexation oi two islands oi non
city land entirely surrounded by the city.
The first (No. 51 on the city ballot) is foi
an area north of McAndrews rd., cast of River
side ave., east and south of the Crater Lake high
way, and west of Riddle rd.
The second (No. 52) involves the area east
of Barneburg rd., south
Sunrist ave., and north
TTHERE apparently is some opposition to the
first annexation proposal by property owners
within the area, although we have no way of
knowing how widespread or how serious it is.
On the other hand, City Manager Robert Duff
points out mat tne annexation would benefit both
them, and the city at large.
We accept his recommendations at their face

Mixed Verbs?
To the Editor: Oh, come
now, Mr. Editor, didn't your
reporter get his or her verbs
mixed in the story about the
speech of Helen Gahagan
Douglas? Instead of "thunder
ed" wasn't the word "blunder
ed"? She spoke in favor of peace.
'We must invest much more
money in a peace program."
Sounds like echoes of that
phony Russian "peace of
fensive of a few years back.
Remember those valiant
'warriors for peace"? And
that "peace agency in our
government" ?Mos tAmerlcans
of both parties, until some
thing better is devised, are
relying on our Navy, our
Army and our Air Force.
Seems to be a deterrent, any
way.
To obtain "peace" all we
need to do - tell Mr. K., "OK,
we'll give up all our bases
around the globe, abandon
Germany and Turkey and
Pakistan and Formosa to their
fate, destroy our atomic
bombs." "An informed Ameri
can public" would react vio
lently to such a bid for
"peace."
"Becoming Increasingly dra
matic," Mrs. Douglas, talented
actress, "deplored the 'blun
ders' made by the current ad
ministration." Seemingly she
hadn't heard the news, but
responsible Democrats in Con
gress and out agree to back
President Eisenhower in a
solid American front while he
Is at Paris. "You never Insult
the government with whom
you plan to negotiate." The
ex-Congresswoman should ad
vise Mr. K.
When Mrs. Douglas opines
that "Rooevelt would be
pleased with Oregon," one re
calls a sour episode of New
Deal days.
During a dam dedication or
"inspection" near Portland
FDR, in a radio appearance,
expansively Included O r e
gon's forth right Governor
Martin among his "frauds."
Shortly before election time,
the old double cross, and Mr.
R. denied his endorsement.
Orders went out and Demo
crats defeated one of Oregon's
trily great executives. Mr.
Martin did not long survive
his betrayal and defeat.
Mrs. Douglas thundered or
blundered onward: "Oregon
has shown great discrimina
tion in Its choice of Senators,
in Wayne Morse and Dick
Neuberger."
Many people agree that Mr.
Neuberger increased In politi
cal stature. Sometime his
likeness will preside over a
spot on the Oregon coastline
which he helped to preserve
unchanged. Too, Mr. Morse
may once be enshrined in
marble. Anyone have any
Ideas?

Nebraska Vote
To the Editor: It is almost
an axiom that a vote for the
head of a party ticket that Is
sensational'y low (in the pri
maries), does much to drag
the said party down to defeat
at the November election.
Kennedy's recent 74,000 votes
in Nebraska is the lowest of
the low. It is so low that a
constitutionally minded citi
zen might be irked into apply
ing for a cor-t ruling as to
whether it is acceptable. Any
Nebraskan would agree that
it is in-representative of a
state having over a million
population.
Even the losing candidate
for auditor (bookkeeper) got
2,300 more. Others topped
that with: 115,000 - 160.000 -99,000
- 107,000 - 138,000.
Even a write-in vote got 61,
000. In an off year (1958), the
average state office candidate
at the regular election got
171,000, over double the in
adequate 74,000 that the so
called "front runner" re
ceived. Other hot news Is that Cur
tis' vote at 107,700 depicts
trouble for him in November.
It Is not enough to help him
much, if at all. People like
to get on "the band wagon"
and sidle over to the probable
winner before they are "for
gotten." This applies to Ken
nedy too. Then, last but not
least , . . Cunningham won't
be "alone" five months from
now. He was almost topped
by the totality of Democratic
vote In the 2nd district.

Don't Be Childish
To the Editor: Yes, Friday Is
Election Day - the day that
adults take advantage of their
freedom to vote as they
please.
But honestly, are voters be
having as adults when they
put fictitious names down for
write-ins? When they vote for
Marshal Dillon, Woodv Wood
pecker, and Digger O'Dell for
important positions?
As a member of an election
counting board, frankly I
think they are behaving very
childishly, or perhaps they
aon t realize that ALL write-
ins, whether the names are
real or flctitous, must be re
corded. This election the ballots are,
long, 29 names to be recorded
for the Republican Ballot and
43 names on the Democratic
Ballot. Let's everybody be
adults when we go to the polls.
waste your vote if you wish
but don't make things more
difficult for the counting
board by writing in silly
names.

cans, John C. F. Mernfield
and Wendell Wyatt, filed for
National Committeeman on
March 11, the deadline date
for filing. The State Chair,
man, Mr. Peter Gunnar, later
contacted each of these men
and Indicated it was unfor
tunate to have a contest over
this pjrty office. On March
14, the deadline for withdraw
ing, both men withdrew their
candidacy.
You can imagine the sur
prise when a short time later
Peter Gunnar announced him
self as a write-In candidate
for National Committeeman!
This action prompted Mr.
Merrifieid to get back into the
race, on a write-in basis.
Meanwhile, Lowell Paget and
W. E. Coultas of Portland an
nounced themselves as write
in candidates.
Despite our impulse to
waste time denouncing Mr.
Gunnar's questional behavior,
the purpose of this letter is
to point out that Mr. Merri
fieid is extremely well qua'i
fied to represent Oregon on
the Republican National Com
mittee. He has been a faith
ful party burden-bearer for
many years, serving on sev
eral budget and finance com
mittees on both a county and
state level. He served a term
as State Senator from Mult
nomah county. He has always
answered the call for party
service willingly and with ef
ficient dispatch. He is blessed
with boundless energy and
would, I believe, prove an ef
fective leader of the GOP.
I therefore urge Oregon Re
publicans to write-in the name
of John Merrifieid as Nation
al Committeeman.

Penned, Happy, Healthy
To the Editor: I agree with
Mr. Dodge concerning "muzz
ling dogs!
"If" they pin diapers on
them too, then they'll get at
the "seat" of the problem.
We had to fence our yard,
and garden and it wasn't be
cause the dogs around here
didn't wear muzzles!!
We own two dogs and they
are fenced off in a separate
pen and are absolutely not
allowed to roam and do as
they please on our own place,
as well as tormenting or dam
aging our neighbors' property
or children. By the way, for
any dog-lover that thinks a
dog will fall apart or die if
penned up, or tied, it just isn't
so.
Ours are nine and four and
very healthy and happy and
contented.
I've seen some starved,
lousy, mangy, crippled-up ani
mals who had their "great
freedom," and it s not so nice
to see. (Only the working
dogs should be allowed to run
free.)

In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
This modern world note:
Big chemical company
(Monsanto) announces that in
1960 it will up its aspirin
production by 25 per cent.
Aspirin consumption, it says,
is climbing at a rate double
that of population.
Present average aspirin
consumption, Monsanto's re
searchers report, is one tablet
per person every three days.
Back in 1935, it averaged out
at one tablet per person every
eight days.
HMMMMmmmm.
Back in 1935 we were
worrying about what Hitler
would do next. Now we're
worrying about what Mr. K
will do next.
Conclusion:
Mr. K is evidently a more
potent worry inspirer than
was Hitler.

Warns Cubans
Havana -(UPD- The Roman
Catholic church has taken the
offensive against Communism
in Cuba, warning Premier Fi
del Castro's government In
effect that it will not stand
idle while Red influence
grows.
A pastoral letter signed by
Santiago's Archbishop En
rique Perez Serantes warned
Cubans Tuesday "not to co
operate in any way with Com
munism." Archbishop Perez probably
saved Castro's life by giving
him sanctuary after his un
successful attack on the Zanti
ago garrison in 1956.
The pastoral letter was spe
cifically directed to Catholics
in the Oriente Province, but
copies were distributed to
newspapers and radio stations
throughout the country.
The wording of the letter
made it clear it was meant to
apply to all Cubans.
It told Cuban Catholics that
they must beware of the "di
alectical materialism of Marx
and atheistic Communism."
A church spokesman, after
praising government aid to
Cuba's underprivileged, said
Tuesday that Communism
could some day leave Cubans
"without bread and without
God."

Two Friends Left
Today, among the Big Four,
only the United States and
France recognize Chiang's Ku

China's legal government.
Today, as world leaders talk
of peace, Chiang's navy and

As in the summer of 1958,
nual meeting of Anheuser
Busch corporation (makers of
Budweiser) when a nosey
stockholder heckled him from
the floor and forced him to
disclose the amount of his an
nual salary.
He was so upset by the ex
perience that he showed up a
few days later at the annual
meeting of the Union Electric
Co., "to observe," he explain
ed to a friend later, "how
they handle argumentative
shareholders." He added that
he learned something, but
didn't say what.
WHAT
" ly, is that Big Business in
these days is quite different
from the days when Mr. An
heuser and Mr. Busch ran the
Budweiser show. In the mod
ern world, big corporations
are owned by hundreds of
thousands of small sharehold
ers. In a large number of cas
es, the shareholders (owners)
considerably outnumber the
employees. Competent au
thorities estimate that some
12V4 MILLION people own
shares of stocks listed on the
nation's exchanges.
When Karl Marx, about a
century ago, was whooping
it up for first socialism and
later communism he couldn't
imagine such a thing.
TN these modern days,
re-
- search is the big word.
Among other things too
numerous to mention, the re
searchers have discovered
that in gerenal we remember
only 10 to 15 per cent of what
we see and hear, 30 to 50 per
cent of wnat ve say, ana
50 to 75 per cent of what we
do under proper supervision
and coaching.
Note that half to three
fourths of us remember what
we do when we are "proper
ly" supervised and coached.
That's where propaganda
comes in. If we are told "prop
erly" enough and often
enough what to do, the
chances are strong that we
will do it.
The propagandists know
that-which is why they work
on us so long and so hard.

World
Chiang's aides are Issuing new
warnings of a military build
up on the Chinese mainland.
They claim the Reds are mov
ing supersonic MIG's, jet
bombers and submarines into
the Formosa Strait area.
In Quemoy, the Reds have
an almost fool-proof sanctuary
for igniting world tensions.
Fear No Attack
They can shell the offshore
islands with an impunity
based on the expectation that
the United States will not re
taliate and that the National
ists will not bomb mainland
bases.
Naionalist military sources
say privately the offshore
islands, less than a mile from
the China mainland, are of
little if any tactical value to
the Reds. They easily could
bypass Quemoy and attack
Formosa directly.
But whatever Chiang's opin
ions and whatever the Com
munists' intent, world coun
cils no longer include the
lonely man in Taipei.
No amount of summit con
ferences or any disarmament
agreement reached at Geneva
can have real meaning, nor
can world tensions be eased,
without the full accord of the
men in Peiping, Chiang's bit
terest enemies.
