NtWSAPE jfcSjJ- ASSOCIATION Genefal vs. Specific It always gives us pleasure to receive a com munication from Robert J. Howard, one of whose letters appears on this page today.. Not because he always agrees with us. He doesn't. He tends to disagree more than agree And this is all to the good, for it is only through the discussion of different sides of different is sues that the bosses of taxpayers, voters can independent conclusions Mr. Howard does this better than most. So, even when or perhaps particularly when he takes exception to our pleased. IN today's communication, Mr. Howard states his belief that the editorials appearing in this space generalize too much. He may be right. But it seems to us that there should be space in a newspaper for generalization. And it seems to us that the place for it is in the editorial col umns. Most of the "hard'' ticulars. and specifics, at generalities which based on an array ot tacts. Sometimes the facts they are implied. 'TAKE the instance cited first by Mr. Howard where we arrive at the generalization "Gov ernment is not evil." His complaint appears to be that we did not point out the obvious (that not ALL government is eooci. ana uiai auu not violent, irresponsible, subversive or an archic). The point we were attempting to make is that government, per se, is not evil, out tnat a num ber of people are attacking government, per se, as evil, and that this is not good for the body politic. This seemed at the time and still seems a perfectly good and valid THERE is also the possibility that, if Mr. How orrl'fl aAvina uroi'o fnllnupH nnp pnnlrl o-Ar sn bogged down in distinctions and qualifications that any semblance of a point would be lost. (We might also add grow in length far beyond columns.) And isn't Mr. Howard using the device of gen eralization too, when he declares ". . . govern ments can be used to wholly frustrate all good intentions. When this is let happen, evil will result"? His conclusion is correct, as recent events in Cuba (as one specific example) show. That he sets forth no distinctions or qualifications does not invalidate his point. rNE can argue from the general to the specific ; from the specific to the general, or generally without, being specific. Each is a valid argumen tative device, and we have used each, from time to time, in attempting to express opinions on matters of public interest and concern. Each device also has its hazards, to be avoided as best one may. What Mr. Howard appears to be saying, be neath his generalizations, is that he has disagreed with our conclusions, and on which they are based. If this interpretation we welcome the message, apparent doubts as to our intentions. We like to think that they're honorable. E. A. Beware the Salmon! The editor of the Grants Pass Courier has run across a copy of a dispatch dated March 16, 1885, from a Manchester, Iowa, newspaper, dis cussing one of the clangers faced by hardy pi oneers in southern Oregon. Here it is: "The recent frightful accident which hap pened to a stage in Southern Oregon cannot fail, says the New York Times, to call attention to the state authorities to the necessity of protecting settlers against attacks question was crossing Applegate Creek (That's our own Applegate River) when it was suddenly attacked by a drove of salmon. .The stage was instantly overturned, and the hungry fish swarmed over it, while great presence of mind, horses, and throwing himself across the oif wheel horse a powerful animal, formerly the property of Dr. (looilnch of Olympia managed to es cape. The dispatch which conveys us this pain ful story savs nothing of the fate of the stage passengers, but, unfortunately, there is every rea son to believe that they fell victims to the salmon. "The Oregon salmon has long been regarded by experienced western hunters as the most dan gerous animal intoning the0continent. It is much larger than the salmon of the Atlantic Coast, and, unlike the latter, which is timid and inoffensive, this fish is fearless and our society the readers come to informed and on issues of the day. views, we are sincerely news stories deal in par and few of them arrive are, essentially, opinions are stated, sometimes cnuus in Kuveinuicui ue generalization. that editorials would the limitations of two often with the premises of his letter is correct, although we regret his of salmon. The stage in the stage driver, with cut the traces of the aggressive." Dennis the mm mm Ya notice I don't hardly say 'ain't' no aore? 1 Communications Letters to the Editor mult bear the nam and address of the writer, although under certain circumstances the use of a pen nam or initial for publication is permissible. Tht Mail Tribune reserves the right to edit all letters with a view to clarification and condensation. Letters submitted for pub lication must not exceed 400 words. The letters printed in this column do not necossarily represent the views of the. paper; in fact the contrary is Specific and General To the Editor: Invariably, not always, but invariably, your editorials reflect a de termined effort to avoid nec essary distinctions. In your Sunday, June 12, editorial you used Monroe Sweetland to aid you in this effort. By way of example: Few, very few individuals will ar gue with you that govern ments are "evil," but a grow ing number of knowledgeable citizens will try to point out to you that governments can be used to wholly frustrate all good intentions. When this is let happen, evil will re sult. Governments are means to ends. Good governments can be good means toward better ing society; but these same good governments may also be good means toward en slaving society, when they are manipulated by men of evil intent, especially when sen sitive areas of an otherwise good government are occu pied by individuals who fall into the categories of subver siveness, ignorance, gullibil ity or simply incompetency. When any government is so plagued, surely there is lit tle justification in branding "critics" of this situation as 'violent," or "irresponsible" or themselves subversive." Neither are they "anarchists," further, it is not obvious their intent is "character assassin ation," for truly, it would be foolhardy to instill a false confidence 1 n individuals who, of their nature are not able, or are desirous of di recting or operating a gov ernment according to its writ ten constitution. Your remarks on art, the word here being used in the modern sense, again avoids distinctions. Art mirrors a rare and priceless talent. Modern Art expresses ideas by taking on a high degree of abstractness. It is not art however, because of its ex pressiveness, or its abstract ness. A given piece is artistic because of the nature of the work itself (essence). Now admittedly Modern Art has been subject to much abuse and fraud, some chicanery and unwitting handling re sulting in embarrassment. In the latter case you need only remember the affair of the famous "Trafalgar Square, when this piece was published in a national magazine, up- sidcdown! Generalizations are neces sary, but often in a given sit uation the avoidance of qual ifications has a strong tend ency to mislead. This tech nique, if continued over a long period of time will tend to Justify doubts as to your original intentions. Robert J. Howard 828B West 14th st. Medford. The Biter Bitten To the Editor: Bob Wal ters, in his column "Out on a Tassle" (I know-but corn doesn't have limbs), took a vi cious, and I'd say, uncalled-for swipe at those city employees he terms "parking meter ticket-writers." Perusal of his little patch of corn leaves one with the feeling that the attack was motivated by something deep er than Journalistic obliga tion. In fact, one might logi cally assume that Mr, Wal ters is angry because some member of the blue-clad clan had the audacity to hang a ticket on the windshield of his sanctimonious chariot. This being the case, I would suggest that he forget, mo mentarily, the bereaved four bsft and try to view the in cident dispassionately. Per haps tht audacious one failed Menace often the case. to recognize Mr. Walters as a member of the powerful press. Perhaps he looked upon Mr. Walters as just an other ordinary, and quite un- clever, individual - a natural mistake, it would seem to me. In the spirit of fairness, however, let me hasten to say that the above Is pure con jecture. Perhaps the attack was not motivated by vin- dictiveness. It is entirely possible that Mr. Walters was moved by professional jealousy. After all, parking meter ticket-wr: I rs can write -which gives them a decided advantage over Bob Walters. Pat Patterson P.O. Box 452 Jacksonville, Ore. Storing Ice To the Editor: I read with much appreciation your ar ticle of June 10. entitled. "Milking Glaciers." I fully believe this article is a real punch towards wak ing up scientists and others who may someday start plan ning such projects over our numerous dry countries. The headwaters of the high mountains could be the lead ing method for safe and eco nomical ways for holding un limited supplies of water for summertime run-off, automat ically and at a cost in many places not to exceed 25 per cent of the costs of high dams and reservoirs, which destroy many thousands of acres and homes in fertile valleys. The ice packs could be m the dry canyons, filled with ice to last the entire summer run off. We have in our Green Springs sufficient time and places for three to five months of freezing time to hold the entire supply of water safely; and in case of war, there would be no chance for pollu tion or breaking of dams and floods. These ice packs could be eventually adjusted for depth for proper run-off. For an extreme example where water would be plenti ful and no dam sites created, the Reno Valley is suffering for water, and the Truckee river and head waters of the American river would be ideal places, as well as many other places, such as Utah, Nevada, Arizona, Wyoming and Montana. I have given much time and talk to water commissioners in these areas without success. I have tested these plans with garden hoses and fire hoses, and it has proven to be extremely successful. There are numerous ways and places this plan could be demon strated with only a few pen nies, compared to the old system. I worked with the Ashland authorities several years ago for making a small demon stration in the Ashland water shed. I told them I would supervise the plan in order to show the workmen how to keep the pipes from smashing down with the ice being sprayed. The reply was "We know how," and before the winter really started, the anchor trees were flattened and all pipes smashed in sev eral feet of ice. The wreck age is still there and the re port came out unsuccessful! Tucker Sno-Cat Corp. E. M. Tucker Sr., President South Pacific Highway Medford BUS PRESIDENT DlilS New York -4DPD-- John E.

Matter of Fact by joSePh ai,op THE LADY FROM NIGER Washington - The marvel of the current American po litical scene, and one of its most signifi cant elements too, is A d la i S t e v enson's c a d i dacy-non-candidacy for. the Demo cratic P r e s 1 dential nomi nation. The latest ceptionally t o n e y political serial had a special charm. Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt analyzed all the Stevenson pronouncements, pounced on her favorite's admission that he was "not a draft-dodger," and therefore announced that he really was a candidate after all, Stevenson, asked for comment, reiterated for the umpteenth time that he was "not a candidate." The reporter who asked for the comment then heard him say, as though privately musing: "Oh, dear, I suppose tnat will get me into it (presum ably meaning trouble) witn Eleanor, won't it?" BUT in order to grasp the full meaning of the Stev enson candidacy - non - candi dacy one must examine cer tain of the earlier, less well publicized acts. It is best to begin with the big confronta tion scene between Stevenson and the Democratic front runner, Sen. John F. Kennedy of Massachusetts, which oc curred on the day after Ken nedy's triumph in Oregon. Kennedy then hoped to per suade Stevenson to come out for him. Like everyone else who has approached Stevenson for any comparable purpose, Kennedy got exactly nowhere. Steven son was profuse in his expres sions of good will. He strong ly emphasized that he was not a candidate himself. But he also said that he could not indorse any other candidate, because this would stultify his previous proclamations of neutrality. And he aided that when the Democratic conven tion had made its choice, he wished to be in a position to act as the great binder-up of wounds and peacemaker, be tween Kennedy and Sen. Lyn don B. Johnson of Texas, for example. a THIS seemed a trifle furprls ing, since the Stevenson Lyndon Johnson relationship has been the opposite of in timate. But as though to give substance to Stevenson's ex planation to K e n n e d y, the Stevenson serial's next act was a long, elaborately cozy meeting between Stevenson and Johnson. At this meeting, the Senate Majority Leader used all his awe-inspiring powers to persuade Stevenson to join the stop Kennedy movement in an active way. If Stcvensoi, really -ent to work lvhlnd th scer.es, to films, hold art exhibitions and to distribute Chines litera ture. Broadcasts Doubled ' Radio Peiping has more than doubled its broadcasts beamed to Latin America in English, Spanish and Portu guese. In Havana, the Chinese have started publishing a daily newspaper, the "China Light." With an estimated 25,000, Cuba has the largest Chinese colony in Latin America, fol lowed by an estimated 20,000 in Peru and about 10,000 in Mexico and Panama. Peiping's propaganda line points up similarities between Red China and Latin Ameri can countries, with emphasis on U.S. "imperialist" designs on the continent's under - de veloped countries. It says that all suffer from the "oppres sion" of Western colonialism and calls for less dependence on capitalist markets. There is no real measure of the effectiveness of the Chi nese propaganda line. Eco nomically, progress has been slow. But scores of economists This thought occurred to me vrhen I stopped by the caucus room to take in a couple of rounds of the box ing investigation being con ducted by the Senate anti trust subcommittee. The subcommittee seems to feel that the prizefight indus try is anti-trustworthy. And small wonder. A pugilist named Jake La Motta testified on the open ing day that he once "took a dive" although he was still standing when the bout end ed. I guess that means he went into the tank feet first. When I read about this in mobilize the loyal Stevenson ites in California, Pennsyl vania, New Jersey, and else where, he could contribute importantly to stopping Ken nedy. But Johnson - like Ken nedy before him - got exactly nowhere. The proof that John son also failed is to be found in the invisible prelude to the Stevenson Mrs. Roosevelt dialogue. When she promulgated the theory that Stevenson really was a candidate after all, Mrs. Roosevelt was acting for a small group of Democratic leaders who hoped to draft Stevenson at Los Angeles. The group includes Senator Mon- roney of Oklahoma, former Governor Lehman of New York, former Secretary of the Air Force Thomas Finletter, the old Stevensonian peren nial, George Ball, and other like-mind persons. THE purpose of Mrs. Roose velt's announcement was to raise a banner which would rally the faithful. Too many of them have lately shown a tendency to follow Prof. Ar thur Schlesinger Jr. and Ken neth Galbraith into the Ken nedy camp. Before Mrs. Roosevelt acted, moieover, Senator Monroney and others went all out to persuade Stev enson to make a "positive" comment, which would seem to give extra substance to what Mrs. Roosevelt was go ing to say. But these long telephone calls to Libertyville ended like all the, other ap proaches to Stevenson, They only produced the result al ready shown. In all this, there Is more than a hint of Pope's Atticus, who was "willing to wound and yet afraid to strike." In Stevenson's case, howe"er, the verse must be amended to read, "willing to run, and yet afraid to sweat." Meanwhile the bitter-ender Stevensonites have cast their candidate in still another role - that of the Lady from Niger, who went for a ride on tiger, and came back from her ride inside. They believe that if Senator Kennedy is stopped, Stevenson will be drafted. Without any real help from Stevenson himself, they are going all-out to stop Kennedy. But they ignore the tiger In the Democratic equation, who is Senator Johnson. Kennedy cannot be stopped, after all, unless Senator John son holds his massive block of votes together. If the Stev ensonites and the Symington adherents and Johnson jointly avert Kennedy's, nomination, Johnson will at once become the front-runner by very wide margin. In the ensuing melee, It will be Infinitely easier for the fast -moving Johnson to increase his dele gate total from around 600 to 731, than for Stevenson's ad herents to swell their 100 or so delegates to the magical majority figure, (c) I960 New York Herald Tribunt Inc. and some Latin American businessmen have visited Pel ping and have been promised good trading prospects. The Red Chinese, more ob viously than the Soviets, usually attempt to make use of their nationals in any in filtration campaign. These tactics range from an appeal to loyalties to the homeland to outright blackmail. Family Reprisals In the United States, the Red Chinese have used threats of reprisals against family member) still on the Chinese mainland to extract U.S. dol lars from persons of Chinese ancestry. In Indonesia, which has a large Chinese population, the Reds attempted outright in tervention in Indochinese af fairs, leading to the present strained relations between the two countries. Economically, Red China has little to offer Latin America now. But its cam paign in Latin America is an another good example of its expansionist aims and Communism's drive in gener al to isolate the United States. Replacing the morning paper, it sounded more interesting than the last subcommittee hearing I at tended, which involved the automobile industry. After all, Ford never threw a match to Chevrolet. So when the boxing in quiry resumed, I resolved to be on hand. Since there was a chance the hearing would be televised, I made certain that I shaved with a thinking man's razor blade in order to please the sponsor. I had no sooner settled my calluses into a ringside seat when I began to get that "this is where I came in" feeling. The first witness called had a familiar look about him, re minding me of someone I had viewed in the past. Sure enough, he turned out to be Irving Mishel, whom I had seen in the same chair in the same room last year as a witness before the Sen ate Rackets committee. Talk about your crossroads! I might have stood on Times Square for 12 years and never seen Mishel again. Serving Prison Term " The reason why I say that is this: Mishel is serving a 10-to-20 year term in the state prison at at Dannemora, N.Y. With paroles the way they are, he still has from 2 to 12 years to go before he can bask in the bright lights of Times Square, Seeing Mishel again sort of made me nostalgic. I had 'to restrain an impulse to rush up to him and ask "how are things in Dannemore?" I had to restrain it because Mishel was being guarded by two burly U.S. marshals. I thought Mishel looked fine although he seemed less talkative than before. This may be because someone had threatened him with violence if he got chatty this time. The subcommittee tried to draw Mishel into a conversa tion about his underworld as sociates. I came away feeling that in the manly art of self defense the Fifth Amendment may be more valuable than the bob-and-weave. ji JfCKX3d 1U)I71 M luifwl ' JloUuaAAf o haw ika Caunhnu ' " HANK MO0N .
