SON SATISFACTORY Uondon-WPU-Prlnce Bcrtil, 48, the second son of King Gustaf of Sweden, was report cd in "satisfactory" condition after undergoing an emerg ency operation here Sunday. A spokesman refused to dis close the nature of the operation. I A A Glass Lamentably, the notion that public office is a public trough seems to have at least a few ad herents in the 86th Congress. A series by Don Oberdoifer and Walter Pincus copyrighted by the Knight newspaper provides piquant docu mentation of an age-old abuse. Their account shows that' some Congressmen have evidently doctored records to ink out money spent for wives. Vouchers in the House Disbursing Office show that one Congressman (unnamed) used tax money to frame "an original oil of nude lady." NATO Conference accounts, supervised by Rep, Wayne Hays, have been used to purchase 47 one way airline tickets to depots near Mr. Hays' Ohio district. High-living sleuths on the House Un American Activities Committee scent out subver sion from the swankest hotels and bill the public $90.38 for an evening in New York's chic Persian Room, perhaps to check on vodka consumption. "VUTRAGE is in order, but it ought to be a little tempered. The House of Representatives is, after all, a mirror of the Nation in both its fraili ties and virtues. If members of Congress have indulged their imaginations in compiling expense vouchers, so, regrettably, have a good many persons in the business world. Deductible dissioation is wide spread in private as well as public enterprise. And, for the record, it should be noted that only a few members of the House are involved in the worst abuses. This does not mean, however, that such petty abuses should or can be glossed over. Surely it is infuriating that members of congressional com mittees can assign themselves winter holidays, live .lavishly on counterpart funds, and then re turn as some do to denounce "waste" in for eign aid programs. t t PUBLICITY is the best curative. Speaker Ray- . burn was wise in overruling an ill-advised attempt by the office of the House clerk to seal up expense records in the House. But mere opening of the records is not enough. As it stands, the vouchers are jumbled together in almost studied disorder. The records ought to be filed in a way that makes scrutiny meaningful as well as possible, perhaps by grouping vouchers for each committee. Moreover, the General Accounting Office ought to be instructed to make an analytic audit and not just tot up the figures, as the law now provides. And the Senate might well follow suit. Before throwing stones at government spend ers, Congress in all fairness ought to raise the blinds in its own glass house. Washington (D.C.) Post. . Hoover on Death Penalty J. Edgar Hoover, director of the FBI, doesn't favor aholition of the death nenaltv. In an article in the FBI Enforcement of traitorous spies and bomb to destroy an airplane, and commented that to abolish the death penalty would absolve others from fear of the consequences of commit ting atrocious crimes. An answer to that might be that fear of the death penalty didn't make the Rosenbergs desist from spying or Jack Graham from planting a bomb on a UAL plane out of Denver. THE statistics do not support the theory that the death penalty is a deterrent to the crime of mur der. And the instances of the extreme penalty dull justice. We can all think of are so atrocious that they have forfeited the right to live ; but many times, under our court processes, 1.1 i). 1 . 11 . i !1 il iney escape me aeain sentence, wnne oiners whose crimes may seem less atrocious or who lack adquate defense are consigned to the death cham ber. Surely, society can find better ways to pro tect itself than continuance of the old law of a life for a life. Oregon Statesman, Salem. In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS From Tokyo: Thousands of fanatic left wing (communist-indoctrinated) students mounter" a new shouting, snake-dancing dem onstration before the Japan ese Diet (parliament) building in an eleventh-hour effort to block the U.S.-Japan security treaty and topple Premier Nobusukc Nishi's government. Swirling and dancing like dervishes, they chanted rhy thmically: "Smash the treaty! Down with Kishi." WHY this frantic eagerness? The answer is that TIME was of the essence of their program, which has two main objectives: 1. Frightening the K I s h 1 government I n t o cancelling President Elsenhower's visit. 2. Forcing the downfall of the pro-American Kishi gov ernment BF.FORE Sunday, be cause on Sunday the treaty passed into automatic ratifi cation by the upper chamber of the Japanese parliament. The lower chamber ratified It on May 20. Tiie first objective was ac complished when President House Bulletin, he cites cases of one who set a time unevenness in invoking its edge as a tool of murderers whose crimes was cancelled. The wild dem onstration that was going on in Tokyo Friday was designed to accomplish the second ob jective. FROM Taipei, Formosa: Communist Chinese artil lery erupted with a massive bombardment of the offshore Qucmoy islands shortly before President Eisenhower was due to arrive in Formosa. The red shore batteries opened fire with thousands of guns (the communists claim) against the 14 tiny Islands that lie four miles oft the Pelping-ruled harbor of Quc moy. Communist loud-speakers had given advance warn ing and denounced President Eisenhower as being "a rat whom people want to step on and crush. RITTER thought: These Chinese communists who arc stirring up so much trouble over there are the SIMPLE AGRARIAN RE FORMERS we unwisely help ed to overthrow the National 1st China mainland and take it over. Dennis the Communications Letters to the Editor must bear the name and address of the writer, although undez certain circumstances the use of pen name or initial for publication is permissible. The 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 often the case. Picnics' and Things To the Editor: What a hap py interlude it is to take off with picnic lunch to the green hills or nearby park, like Tou Velle, bordering the clear cool running Rogue River, with oaks shading the numerous tables, all in good order by a dedicated care-taker. So for tunate it is, with time such an element in the planting and care of growing vegeta bles. Like on a recent morn ing which found us up with hoe in hand at 4:30, with four hoses of water, to chase about among the alternate rows of corn and 'taters in the east garden. With a few minutes to wolf down breakfast and no chance for mid-forenoon rest, we had the watering completed by 12:15. Almost best of all was the exultation that aged bones and muscles could take it that-away. So, we do feel entitled to take this Sunday off to enjoy the cat-fish Derby by the 20- 30 club at TouVelle, to meet there with picnicking friends, including chin-whiskered ban joist Woody Murphy and log hauling Guitar Pete, a marvel in bringing out 'lost cords' from anything with .-singing strings, as with head wagging emphasis he fishes up songs from depths of memory that's a privilege and joy to hear. AH this discreetly located back aways, so as to not in terfere with the main doings, directed away from it with public - address system, we hope to enjoy it all in our own way and time. Mostly to bring back for a little while, some remnants of the past in costume and folk-ways. As promised to sponsors a year ago, ' if granted health, strength and time here on earth, we plan to do again a little variety of old-time do ings at the Jacksonville Gold- rush, same at Cave Junction. old Kcrby Ghost Town and lew oiner places, bv one who was privileged to take part in the last of the old gun-toting days, saw same whipped out to kill by ter ritory bad-men, at least they thought they were, which amounts to the same thing in ate s chancy way. F. J. Clifford Route 2, Box 200F Central Point, Ore. Differences in Art To the Editor: Could I per haps encourage you to make a small retraction and modify an assertion? I Icel that. in your effort to aid one faction of art (the one you subscribe to) in Its effort to control the art exhibit at the State fair, you employed some words without immedi ately realizing the adverse In ference to honest and Innocent people who subscribe to a dif ferent form of art. Recalling some of your own editorial statements about peaceful co-existence and dis crimination of another type, I'm sure you did not mean this "art editorial" to sound quite so prejudiced . . . i.e., surely you did not mean to make the word "amateur" sound cheap or like a bad word? ... or "competence" to sound unattainable? True, I don't have a mod ern university education. True, I am an oldster. But . . . I am proud of the record I have made as an "amateur" artist. I paint traditional thlngs-honcstly, with sinceri ty, with pleasure. I paint this way, not because I am without superior knowledge, but be cause I like tradiUonal things: and many, many ot the people In the Rogue valley and the state like them too. Since I, and most other "traditional" Menace artists pay great attention to form, line, balance, design, perspective, harmony, etc.. please do not discount our competence" merely because of a difference in subject mat ter! Even though it may be con sidered unimportant by you, u is ot great importance to me, and others like me, to be an AMATEUR, TRADITION AL painter of the Southern Oregon countryside. So don't discount us completely. You might be wrong. Clifford A. Platz 1041 Ingrid Medford. Discrimination? To the Editor: Our street parking seems to have a large discrimination in favor of meter use. On June 14 my car was parked at Ninth and South Front sts. at 12:45 p.m. This is a two-hour parking area. At 3:08 p.m. an over parking summons was placed on my car. I must admit the effi ciency of the tagging officer, as but some 23 minutes was the time of over parking. My complaint is: I was cit ed to appear in city court, or post "bail." I posted bail of $1, and was also assessed $1 court costs, a total of $2. If I had parked across the street at a meter I would not have been cited into city court but would have been in convenienced only to the ex tent of putting SO cents in an envelope and dropping it in a red box," no court citations or court cost and but SO cents penalty instead of $2. Is this discrimination to be called traffic regulation? Ray O. DeMarrs 708 West Second st. Medford Curbs Too High To the Editor: I could not help being touched in read ing the letter Mrs. Lillian Green wrote in Sunday Mail Tribune, about the need of benches for people to rest This old world is going fast and everyone here would like to get what enjoyment they can while here, either on foot. or in a wheelchair, but the cross streets, most of them, have too high a curb to wheel up over, so will have to go to alleys and back to go on, and one person cannot get a chair up alone. The alleys are not only rough on the person riding, but hard to push, and hard on the chair. Those who are riding or being pushed about love to be out in this lovely sunshine and view the lovely displays In the windows as they go to pass the time. I am sure there would be more cripples out to enjoy life if the streets were so they could cross. A couple of shovels of con crete up against the curb would malv a small ramp and easy to wheel up over. Seems like that would be very little expense when there so much money spent to make children happy. This would not only be helpful to wheel chairs but to small children that stub toes and fall to skin their knees, as I've seen. Mrs. P. L, B. Medford 244 South Central ave Edltor'i note: It is manifest that we were guilty of sloppy writing in the editorial men tioned by Mr. Platz, for we have found some of his paint ings to be excellent. Nor did we intend any onus to attach to an "amateur," which is good, respectable, and often Pressure Will Continue to Mount For Kennedy To Take Second Spot on Ticket By LYLE C. WILSON Washington -flJPD- The kind of pressure that keeps men awake at night, ruins their golf game, and gives them ulcers is beginning t o build up around Sen. John F. Ken n e d y ID Mass.). The pr es sure is for mm to agree vie c wiisod to accept nomination for vice president of the United States. Foreign Notebook: Socialists Overplayed Hand in By PHIL NEWSOM - UPI Foreign Editor From the foreign editor's notebook: Overplayed Hand There's a good chance the Japanese left wing Socialists overplayed their hand in the demo n s t r a tiont that forced cancel lation of Pres ident E i s e n howers trip to Tokyo last week. In the elections that must follow in the- near fu- phil nlk son ture, tne pop ulace is likely to show its dis gust and cause the Socialists to lose considerable ground. On the other hand, the Demo cratic Socialists, a moderate group dedicated to Demo cratic procedures, are likely to pick up ground. In any event, the Liberal-Democratic conservative Party of Premier Nobusuke Kishi is an odds-on choice to win the next elec tions. Best bet to succeed Kishi as next prime minister is 61-year-old Hayato Ikeda, minister of Trade and Indus try. Russian Follow-up Expect Russia to follow up the Tokyo events of recent days with a stepped-up cam paign against United States bases abroad. Communist pressure is being exerted in all-out fashion for the annul ment of the U.S.-Japan se curity treaty and the com plete removal of U.S. bases on Japanese territory. The same strategy is being applied by Moscow in Europe, where the Kremlin is pushing a system atic intimidation campaign against the "outlying" NATO nations, including Turkey and Norway. In additon, the Kremlin is seeking to intimi date American allies in the CETO pact, with Pakistan presently the chief target. Dip lomatic sources expect Mos cow to make the anti-foreign bases campaign the chief ele ment of its strategy for the next few months, while the Berlin issue is shelved. British Concerned Although the British gov ernment is saying nothing of ficially, it is deeply troubled by the United States' plight in the Far East. Officials fear that what is regarded as a Inspiring avocation. We still believe, however, that the word "traditional" is a mis nomer when used in describ ing works of art which might better be called "realistic," for the artistic "tradition," from the beginning, has been one of experimentation and self expression which is less factor in realistic painting than in other forms. Dog Petitions To the Editor: Another case of the tail wagging the dog happened when the city vot ers passed the bill that makes us out here in the country either tie up or muzzle our working dogs. Imagine my Gus digging out a mole or field mouse when wearing a muzzle. Reckon he will have to stomp on it. There are 113 precincts in Jackson county. To beat this thing am advised that each precinct may circulate a spe cial petition and vote on it independently. Am assured that enough signatures are be ing secured to compel a new vote to repeal the bill that passed this primary. The city vote can again defeat it. Attorney Walter Nunley, also a country resident, is pre paring petitions. Any person that is interest ed in circulating a petition may pick one up at his office or send self addressed enve lope and they will be mailed Charles Edgar Rose 643 Pierce rd. Medford.

Kennedy has been under pressure for months on the vice presidency. But, as Al Jolson used to say, "you ain't seen nothin' yet." Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt joined the pressure group last week in a big way. Mrs. R's somewhat improbable ticket is Adlai E. Stevenson for president and Kennedy for vice president. Improbable because Stevenson says he is not a candidate for president major diplomatic defeat in cancellation of the Eisenhow er trip to Japan may set off a chain reaction against the West throughout Asia and Africa - and perhaps even in Europe. Vatican Silence The Vatican thus far has been meticulously trying to keep out of the religious issue in Sen. John Kennedy's bid for the U. S. Democratic presi dential nomination. But now it is quietly asking certain foreign correspondents through selected contacts about the general impression. So far, Vatican, publications have avoided direct comment Washington Report By WILLIAM FACT AND THEORY Washington - For the sec ond time within weeks the United Nations faces a contest between tne i n e s c apable real! ties of present life and the out moded diplo matic niceties of the 19th century. Again it is a no on ... h a 1 B William S. " white c o n d i t ions, facts clash with a theory that was no doubt all right in a world of safety now long gone. A little while ago the se curity council was solemnly trying, and at length acquit ting, the United States for the vast "crime" of sending a spy plane over the Soviet Union, The Soviet Union's charge - violation of its sovereignty -was gravely put as though no other nation - and surely not the scrupulously nice apparat us of international commu nism had ever operated es pionage. And this in a world where espionage is as real and universal as is the desire of nations to keep alive. Now, Israel shortly goes be fore the U.N. to answer Ar gentina's complaint that her sovereignty, too, has been vio lated by the capture in Argen tina by Israeli "volunteers" of the infamous Nazi, Adolf Eichmann. If ERE was a man charged a-- with the systematic mur der of 6,000,000 Jews in the Hitler era. For 14 years the tireless Israelis had been on his track until at last they found him and took him off to Israel to be tried for crimes too horrible to be much dis cussed. The Argentines had put no slightest finger of accusation or of punishment upon rum though he had come there il legally and illegally had re mained. For the security coun cil now to attempt to order his return to Argentina would be unthinkable, for two rea sons. First, this would mean that Eichmann would continue to cheat the justice already so long overdue. The U.N. has no courtroom, no prison, no pow er to punish, nor has any oth er existing international in strumentality. Second, the Israelis in any case would politely but firm ly tell the U.N. that they were very sorry but that Eichmann would face an Israeli court of justice all the same. - NO CONCEIVABLE Israeli government could ever al low this man out of its hands, Just as no conceivable U.S. government could ever abdi cate its responsibility to. pro tect this nation from surprise attack.

Kennedy On Spot Stranger things have hap p e n e d, however, than the nomination of an improbable ticket. Mrs. Roosevelt's re vival of the Kenned: -for-vice president boom puts the sen ator on a tough spot The merest hint at this time that he might be content with sec ond place probably would cause his large delegate herd to begin to fade away. Some Democrats undoubt edly feel that the safest way to deal with the 1960 problem Rioting on Kennedy as a possmie president, although Osserva- tore Romano has carried sev eral editorials directed at the peculiar Italian political scene which have been inter preted abroad 'as bearing on the Kennedy candidacy and as a warning that he must put church before state. But Vatican sources claim that was not the intention at all The Vatican apparently now is convinced that anything it says about Kennedy will be misconstrued and only hurt' him and the church. There fore, the outlook is for con tinued silence from the Vati can on the American political races. S. WHITE al organization, . the U.N., which is wholly unable to pro tect anybody from the fact that crime still goes on in this world. So the true importance of this case is not related to the fine-spun legalisms of the U.N., as the true importance of the U-2 case did not lie in such legalisms. The real point of the last U.N. trial was that it highlighted the enormous success of American counter espionage in having penetrat ed for four years the skies over the lowering iron cur tain. The real point of the com ing U.N. trial of Israel is its dramatization of a hitherto little-known fact - the spec tacular efficiency of Israel's security and counter-espio nage. This correspondent, in a visit a few months ago, saw a little of that system at work along Israel's troubled fron tiers. e WHAT was not seen then and never will be - was the human form of the top most man in Israel's intelli gence .operations. This man is wisely kept nameless by the Israeli government, as the British government keeps ab solutely secret the identity of its very top security man. (The United States, in the per son of Allen Dulles ot the central intelligence agency, makes its top man known.) - The No. 1 man in Israel's cloak - and - dagger ' establish ment is truly cloaked, though carrying no dagger.-The pub lic will never know who he is; the Israelis will not dis close his identity even in the coming Eichmann trial. Many of our wiser friends abroad were far from offend ed by the U-2 episode. On the contrary, they were immense ly heartened to learn how suc cessful America intelligence could be.

PERL Funeral Home SPACIOUS PARKING LOT of a Catholic on the presi dential ticket would be to put the Catholic in second place. However that may be, for Kennedy to waver now on the vice presidency" surely would jeopardize and .probably, de molish his chance for the nomination. So, Kennedy can stand pat for now and the 'politicians, including Mrs. Roosevelt, will understand. But, failing to win the presidential nomina tion on an early ballot, Ken nedy will be pounded from all sides to agree to take sec ond place. Mrs. Roosevelt and others will be in their pound ing for the senator not only to agree to second place but to throw his first plqce delegates to Stevenson. At that point, in the Democratic National Convention, Mrs. Roosevelt's Stevenson - Kennedy ticket may seem a lot less improb able than it does now. Would Oppose Mrs. R. Former President Harry S. Truman, of course, will be battling Mrs. Roosevelt -on all of this. HST has his own can didate, Sen. Stuart Syming ton (D-Mo.). Moreover, Tru man is opposed, more in sor row than in anger, to Steven son. Kennedy as a vice preslr dential nominee would not be worth a nickel to Truman. . Two U.S. Senators, any two U.S. Senators, do not make a good presidential ticket. So HST, the fastest guh in . politics, will be drawing pn Mrs. Roosevelt next month In Los Angeles and who is to say which are the good guys and which the bad guys in a west ern such as that? Mrs. Roose velt acknowledged that it would be asking a great deal of Kennedy to accpnt semnH Place. She also saluted him as a man worthv and rnmne. tent for the White House. But, she counselled 'him to wait. It means unselfishness and courage on the part of Mr. Kennedy," she aid. "If he ix willing to take second place i m l-i n mau menus xur mm an op portunity to grow and to learn. And he is young ' enough to look forward' to many years of public service. He will gain enormously in stature if he thinks of the ' country rather than of him self." There it is, the argument which will batter Kennedy at Los Angeles. To answer it will not be easy. Firm Asks Money For Fire Damage A complaint has been filed in circuit court by the White City Box company.
