European travel agents and transportation line officials at the beginning of the season were expecting to accommodate 850,000 Americans, about zO per cent more Pacific shipping lines report tourist traffic up 5 to 7 per cent, while a West Coast trave. agency says it is sending 80 per cent more vaca- doners this year to Japan, and Thailand. THE explosion at the Viuvo hurl KtMo nv nrt Russia. A record 20,000 expected this year. But in Cuba Fidel Castro's anti-American tirades have reduced the tourist flow to a trickle. A considerable increase in American visitors is expected elsewhere sphere, where passports are not required. This could run to 5 million for Canada, half a million for Mexico, and about a million for the remainder of Latin America. British Overseas Airways Corp. on March 29 announced that seat reservations on the London New York route for the February-July period are up 50 per cent over those of 1959. With currency regulations relaxed, Britons can now spend as much as they like overseas. DOMESTIC travel, as vimmiiKf f h o rtarla weather hit some resorts Atlantic City had two over the long Memorial washed down what could holiday to $6 million or But individuals taking vacations within our borders are expected to ton last year's 90 million. Rates in general are up again at hotels and motels, and accommodations cannot always be had with out reservations, although number of new motels opening each year at 1500. According to another source, working Americans alone enjoy 70 million weeks or vacations; as a nation we spend $10.4 billion of our $43 billion annual leisure outlay on Dirty The exhaust fumes from automobiles are not only an Irri tant but a serious health hazard as well. They constitute an important element in the air pollution which is strongly suspected by medical authorities to be a causative factor in cancer, bronchitis, asthma and "Individually," as the late Senator Neuberger observed, "none of us can do much about air pollution. Collectively, through government, we can nate or control it." One source of automobile fumes can be largely controlled by a simple and inexpensive device. The device can be in stalled below the carburetor in called blowby gases back into the cylinders where they are burned in the engine. Blowby is the mixture of air and raw gasoline hydrocarbons that slips unburned past the pis ton rings and is vented into the atmosphere from the crank case. Although it accounts for only one-fourth to one-third of the hydrocarbons emitted by the most dangerous cancer-producing hydrocarbons - it is, nevertheless, an important source of air pollution. riMIE AUTOMOBILE Manufacturers Association lias an- nounced that a device to control blowby will be installed as standard equipment on all the California market; the extra cost will probably be less than $10. Why, then, should the device not be installed on all new model cars? Senator Neuberger asked this question be fore his death a few months ago. Secretary Flemming of Health, Education and Welfare warned the automobile manufacturers that if they failed to put the device onto all new cars of their own volition they might be required to do so by law. For our part, we do not understand what the auto makers -or the 'states or Congress-are waiting for. Cars ought not to be allowed on public streets tection for the public health. BUSES AND trucks which burn diesel fuel produce fumes less hazardous to public health than gasoline exhaust yet even more offensive to the human sense of smell and mure irritating to human eyes, noses and throats. These, too, can be controlled or corrected without exorbitant expense by at taching catalytic afterburners from diesel engines. . . . The Public Health Service, intensive studies of the-part played by automobile exhausts in poisoning the atmosphere, is said to be convinced that ad ditional, and rather more costly, devices will be needed to eliminate the hydrocarbons that are emitted from automobile exhaust pipes-the major source' of auto pollutants. These studies will be continued and by Congress and now before adjourns, It ought to supplement this effort by passing Senator Kuchcls bill providing for public hearing and ex tending the Federal air pollution control law. Americans would not tolerate poisoning of the water they drink; there is no reason for them to permit needless pollution of the air they breathe.-Washington (D C.) Post.

Washington Report By WILLIAM OPPORTUNITY OPENS Washington - A glittering opportunity for demagogues is opening out for the fall p r e s idential campaign, but those who seize it may find it turn ing to fool's gold in their hands. The institu tion of the William 8. .j White presiuuncy nas been abused as never before in history by left-wing mobs which forbade, the elected head of this country to visit the elected head of govern ment in Tokyo. Howling and brutal irre- sponsibility-lhe ultimate logi cal extension of extremism in politics-roams much of the world. It is formed of packs of pseudo-legal lynchers in Castro s Cuba. It marches as openly applauded allies of imperialist Communism in Japan, There is a growing belief among high American offici als to whom this correspond. ent has talked that even the Soviet Kremlin is frightened by the excesses of this new Communist imperialism as it Is being directed from Bed China. There is a question whether Nlkita Khrushchev himself will be able to re strain the new furies rising in the Orient. T IS NOW obvious that much ot Khrushchev's rea son for breaking up the Sum mit conference lay in Chinese Communist pressures he dared not resist. (Parenthetically. what price now all the shrilly positive assertions that it was the little American "spy plane" which caused Khru shchev so to act? How petty can you get in assigning causes for historic upheavels?) more is more and more authoritative doubt here as to which now is the dog and which is the tail as between Russia and Red China. But there is no doubt that Japan Itself, and thus the whole free world position in Asia, is under grave threat from the Chinese Communists and their allied extremists. So there is great tempta tion among the Democrats to indict the Eisenhower admin istration's policies without re straint, in part from convic tion and in part for political capital, WHERE is a corresponding determination among the Republicans, arising from the same mixed motives, to con- fess no error anywhere, any time. Of course, administration Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF TTUMOR U tricky thing to define, but that never seemt A A to stop the experts from trying. "Humor can be dis sected," warns E. B. White, "as a frog can, but the thing die in the process and 1he in nards are discouraging to any but the pur scien tific mind." "Every time I've tried to explain just what hu mor means to me," adds Dorothy Parker, "I had to go and lie down with a cold wet cloth on my head." Old Master P. GWodc house told Researcher Bill Cole, "The difference between-wit and humor beat me and has always beat me. Sometimes I think I've got It, and then suddenly everything goes black." Ogden Nash polishes oft the subject with. In this foolish world there It nothing more numerous Than different people's senses of humorous. C IMu, by BeantU Ctrl: DUIrlbuUrf h Ktne- tummc BniiiuM 0 Menace S. WHITE mistakes have been made. They cannot possibly be un made in the few remaining months of the Eisenhower administration. Nevertheless, the superfi cially appealing opposition campaign tactic is a full throated clamor against the president, though this would further damage the country abroad by picturing us as frightened and divided. Upon the Democrats falls a heavy responsibility to avoid the superficial; not to let the country down in build ing themselves up. Exactly the same goes for the Repub licans, 17REE speech, yes. But free speech need not also be ir responsible. The nation stands at an infinitely dangerous hour. Any word or action simply directed toward de stroying the president's pres tige is unworthy. So is any G.O.P. suggestion that every thing is all right and beyond criticism. There must be an adult Democratic opposition looking to the future and not to the past; a politics of con struction and not destruction, There must be an adult Re publican defense not seeking alibis for all the past but to assist in securing the future. The situation is so delicate that powerful men in both parties are now considering a private appeal to all presi dential candidates to accept n unwritten code of conduct along these lines. No party will really gain if it gains at the expense of national safety. No winning candidate will really win un less he so behaves as to be able to govern after he wine. For it is easily possible to gain the presidency this year by such means as to guaran tee an opposition so implaca ble as to make certain the destruction of the new ad ministration before it begins.

Reads Statement To the Editor: We have read the statement of Nelson Rockefeller in the Mail Trib une. It would have been time ly in 1912. However, it falls short of meeting the condi tions of today. Yet, it is way ahead of anything that the Democrats or Richard Nixon has to of fer. He seems aware of the fact that this is not an ordi nary election. Yet I believe that he and I are the only ones in the United States that share that opinion. My belief stems from the attitude of the American public in general Whether I am correct in my belief, I am willing to trust the verdict to history. Mr. Rockefeller implies that he believes that the United States can haul abreast of the Soviet Union. Logic does not support that idea. The conditions that put the Soviet Union ahead of the United States was their econo mic order and social and cul tural conditions. They have unity of plan and unity of purpose. With them first things come first. Their econ omy has the benefit of the en tire population. It even em braces child labor, to say nothing about the experience and skill of the aged. The re sults of their social system and methods speak for them selves. We have a rich coun try; theirs is richer. The Soviets have overtaken us because they have more speed. For us to overtake them we must have more speed than they. They have social team work. They have economic team work. They economize on labor and re sources. ' They build high dams for electric power while we build low dams. We lose time on unemployment, strikes and featherbedding while they can use 12 million more workers Their scientists get practical experience while learning Their schools have the same advantage. We may lament their prog ress and our handicaps, but there is not much that we can do about it. We are what we are, and they are what they are. Even if we could change and use their system tomor row we could not catch up with them., They are too far advanced in their ideology. By the time that we became adjusted, socially and scienti fically, they would be another decade ahead of us. We build automobiles and TV sets; they build people. Walter Heece Galice Fine Department To the Editor: I don t know the Bob Walters who writes your column "Out on a Limb," but after reading last Monday's (June 13) piece I sug gest you either drop the col umn or the writer. I presume he thought his piece was real cute and funny, but to me he owes our police patrolmen an apology. If Mr. Walters is so unhappy with the parking meter tickets, why doesn't he have enough nerve to go to the police sta tion and talk it over instead writing such a silly piece. Personally I think we have a very fine police department. E. T. Anderson Fluhrer Building Medford Second Round To the Editor: Today's Ore gonian says: "Second round of taxes coming up." Veil!

Everett Acklin, Ashland Would Like Help To the Editor: I am prepar ing a feature-article for the local newspaper and for possible national publication on the popularity of the word "Hamilton" in the Unit ed States. Any help your readers may give me will be appreciated. . I would like to learn the names of all families named Hamilton in your large read ing audience. I would also like to hear from any mer chant, businessman or indus try that has the name "Ham ilton" in its title. If there are villages, towns, cities, schools clubs or fraternal organiza tions In your area using the word "Hamilton" I would like to learn about it. Alter considerable re search. I have found numer ous sources for the beginning of the word "Hamilton," but I would like to learn of any further history your readers may have of this popular name. Hamilton. Ohio, is located In the southwestern section ot the state; has a population of more than 72.000; is one of the heaviest industrialized cities of its size in the coun. after Alexander Hamilton. I will acknowledge all cor respondence received on this. Jim Newton ' 220 Sherman ave. Hamilton, Ohio Interests of All To the Editor: No individ ual and no group is qualified to sit in the seat of judgment and render the final decision on issues arising between such individual or group and other parties having an ad verse interest in the matter under consideration. It is the duty of govern ment to act as the impartial arbitrator, and when- neces sary the policeman, to see that the rights and privileges of all citizens are protected to the fullest possible extent. It is siso the duty of govern ment to see that no individual or group be allowed to un duly extend their own liber ties to the point of destroying the freedom of others. We hear much discussion about right wing and left wing groups. This classifica tion is illusionary. There is no right or left, liberal or con servative when it comes to the favors sought by any spe cial interest group. I am not opposed to big business but I do not think that big business should be allowed to run the govern ment of all the people. I am not opposed to big unions but I do not think that big unions should run the government either. One of the two top con tenders for the Democratic nomination for president of this country pointed with pride to the following voting record in the United States Senate. Senator Kennedy cast his vote on 33 bills upon which COPE chose to take a stand. According to COPE Senator Kennedy voted "right" 33 times out of 33. A perfect Score, Jpr COPE. COPE is the alphabetic des ignation for the Committee on Political Education, AFL- CIO. The Chairman of COPE is George Meany president of AFL-CIO. Secretary - Treasur er of COPE is William F. Schuitzler, who holds the same office in the joint labor movement. . From the above we are left to judge, with Kennedy in the White House, just how much consideration the rights of anyone outside of the union inner circle would be given on any issue where their rights came in conflict with the wishes of this group. The real issue appears to be: Shall the Democratic Party take itself out of the race and leave the voters in November a choice only be tween the Republican Party and COPE, or shall we run a candidate of independent judgment who is capable of serving in the interest of all of the people? Earl Glidewell , P.O. Box 1053 Hermiston, Ore. Outrageous Statements To the Editor: M. J. Olsen's letter of June 6 contains so many outrageous statements that I wonder whether, in ac cordance with his own sug gestion, he wrote it just to stir up a controversy. It would help if he would define what he means by "socialism." Does he wish to do away with the police de partment, the fire department, the armed services, the pub lic schools, the post office and a number of other institutions which are, strictly speaking, socialistic? I'd be glad to know how federal tax collections are "done against the Bill of Rights and the Constitution and with near police state methods." This would be news to me. ' The foreign aid program, like our military expendi tures, is justified only in terms of the defense of our country. Mr. Olsen's very ex istence as a citizen of a great country was preserved by these dollars. Obviously, Mr. Olsen has not read the bills providing for federal aid to education. If he had, he would know that any such control Is expressly forbidden, much less "a thor ough brainwashing of our children's minds towards more, and finally, total em bracing of socialism." Charles O. Porter, Member of Congress. EXPRESSES REGRET St. Louis-dJPD-Former Presi dent Truman expressed regret Friday that riotous demonstra tions had forced cancellation of Pr e s I d e n t Eisenhower's scheduled visit to Japan. Tru man said. "There is no ques tion the rioting in Tokyo was Communist-inspired." try, and was named potluck (By M-T Staff and Contributors) This is a season of garden ing, cub reporters and a refer ence to air pollution. Throughout the valley, gar dens are green (that is, those that have been properly cared for). Lawns are snowing the strain of the hot sun. And weeds are being pulled, or broken off. One of our staff members has a lawn-weed problem, so while watching a member of the younger generation, he pulls a few weeds. The other day, he thought he would teach the 18-month- old to help him, and instruct ed the little fellow to take the pulled weeds to a wheel barrow. The little fellow did, too. He'd take the weed in his chubby little fingers and put it in the wheelbarrow. Our staff member thought that was very fine. That is, until the little fel low brought the weed back to him. Eighteen months is about the only time in a perton't life he voluntarily helps mow the lawn, pull weeds, clean house, wash dishes, or cleans the patio by eat ing the dirt. This also is a cub reporter season in the news depart ment, and last week this re sulted in somewhat of a desk and equipment shortage. A temporary inconvenience, of course, but it was apparent. As a result, one of the regu lar staff members, much of whose time is spent in dark In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS President Eisenhower's vis it to Japan is called off "postponed" is the word used by Japan's prime minister in announcing his decision. He says he decided on postpone ment because he believes President Eisenhower's life would be endangered if he flew to Tokyo Sunday as planned. fPHE concensus of profession- al diplomats in most of the world's capitals is that as a result of the postpone ment (some of them use the word "collapse") of our Pres ident's scheduled visit to our Japanse ally the United States has suffered a humiliating and costly defeat and that the Soviet Chinese communist bloc won a victory of MEN ACING proportions, The professionals point out that it Is the second time in exactly a month that a great international event has gone against the wishes of Presi dent Eisenhower and along lines charted by the interna tional communist leadership. (The first time was the col lapse of - the summit confer ence.) They add that today's de bacle In Tokyo is potentially more damaging to the United States and its allies, and in the long run poses a greater threat to the balance of U.S. Soviet relations and therefore to world peace, than did the break-down of the summit conference in Paris. SO MUCH for the profession als. Let's turn now to the opinion of a humble Japanese housewife interviewed in To kyo this morning by an Amer ican correspondent. Asked what she thought of it all, she replied: Yes, as you say, we lost face. But maybe it is better to lose 'face.' You never know what those crazy students might do." THIS is what was in her mind. Suppose one of those crazy students, hopped up with com munist propaganda, had tak en u well-aimed shot at Ike. Suppose Ike had been killed. What would have happened then? This is the answer: WAR WOULD PROBABLY HAVE FOLLOWED. LET'S go back to June 28, 1914. At that time, two great power blocs-Germany, Aus tria and Italy on one side and Great Britain, France and Russia on the other-stood face to face much as the Free West and Communism stand facing each other now. In the midst of the tension, an Austrian archduke and his wife visited the city of Sara jevo, capital of the Austrian province of Bosnia. There was a parade. A frenzied Ser bian peasant SHOT THE ARCHDUKE AND HIS WIFE. World War I followed. From the standpoint' of common human welfare, World War I solved nothing. It merely towed the seeds of World War II. World War II stopped a crazy despot, but from the standpoint of com ness, found himself standing when his regular desk always seemed to be occupied. His comment was: "I just won't take this sit ting down!" One of our newer report ers was asked to buy gro ceries for the hungry news staff. Literally hungry, that is. On his return, he noted there was nothing in the journalism manual about buying food. (We had as sured him before he left, there is usually no mention of thote necessary little er rands.) Perhaps the journalism manual should be rewrit ten. Space in which to keep pending material became one of the summer news room problems last week. By some rearranging of volumes in the book case, however, room was found. But in the process of rear ranging the dusty volumes, a couple of the newer members came across an old edition of local telephone directory. The remark: "Not much plot to it, but look at all the characters." It wat in thit tame book case that under several lay--ert of dust there wat a stack or old Mail Tribunes saved for a tpecific reaton. Under the dust was a theet of paper on which wat writ ten: "Air Pollution File." mon human welfare, IT solved nothing. Both wars bathed ' the world in blood. ' S' Let's get back to the thought that was in the back of this humble Japanese housewife's mind. Suppose the visit to Tokyo had gone through as planned. SUP POSE IKE HAD BEEN SHOT BY A CRAZY FANATIC. What would have happen ed? Here-at the very best-is what would have happened: We would have lost a be loved President. The world would have lost a magnificent fighter for PEACE-one who commands the affection, the confidence, the TRUST of common, ordinary people all over the world. , . people like this Japanese housewife. SO LET'S not grieve too much over a possible loss of "face." Maintaining "face" has cost rivers of blood over the long centuries of history. 6,994 Swimmers Recorded at Two Pools in Medford A total of 6,994 swimmers were recorded at Medford's two municipal swimming pools during the period June 9 through 15, according to Parks and Recreation Director Robert Haworth. Some 1,056 of the swim mers were recorded at the new Jackson park swimming pool which opened June 10, and 5,938 were recorded at Hawthorne pool. Haworth said there have been no reports of cut feet at the Jackson pool since last Monday when nearly 25 per sons reported having cut their feet on the bottom of the pool. Thoroughly Cleaned The pool was thoroughly cleaned Monday night, Ha worth said, and whatever was cutting the swimmers' feet was apparently cleaned out. It is thought that some small particles of debris which had been left behind by the con tractor were responsible for the cut feet, but it is not known for sure. A total of 388 season swim ming passes have been issued by the city so far this season. These include family, adult, student and children swim passes. They are on sale at the city hall and at both of the city's swimming pools. Haworth said that 14 per sons registered for the Am erican Red Cross water safety instructor's class which was held June 13-15 at Hawthorne pool. A total of 400 swimmers have participated in the fam ily swimming hours at both pools. The hours for family swimming are from 5:30 to 7 p.m. each evening.
