NATIONAL
We ALL Own the Forests
In common with about 50 million or more
other American citizens, we find that tossing a
tent, some food, and sleeping bags and air mat
tresses in the car, and taking off for a night or
two in the woods, is just about the pleasantest
way there is to relax. v
' This we did last week end, journeying to one
of our favorite spots, a small forest service camp
ground some SO miles trom home.
The tall trees, the chuckle of the nearby
stream, the smell of the hot sun on the forest duff,
the warmth of the campfire and the gleam of
the stars through the trees at night these are a
benison beyond compare.
T'HE week end wasn't spoiled, but it was badly
marred, by two factors previous "campers"
who were at best litterbugs and at worst menaces,
and timber cutting along the forest road right of
way and along the stream.
At the camping site we chose, we found four
or five beer bottles and cans tossed carelessly
around, innumerable bits and pieces of paper,
bottle caps, and burned-out sparklers, and, uist
across the creek under the stately trees and in
forest duff, five or six spots where fires had been
lighted against all rules of safety and common
sense.
As we strolled around the rest of the camp,
we saw where someone had dumped a box-full
of old magazines, which had been strewn by wind
and water down a tributary creek; more beer
bottles, (some of them smashed into jagged frag
ments), and cans, more unsafe campfire spots,
and several places where living trees had been
hacked, by axes either for firewood, or for no
reason at all.
THIS kind of moronic litterbugging and worse
is, we suppose, inevitable in a day when any
one with a car and a case of beer can get out
into the woods.
The logging too (which we subsequently
learned was "salvage" timber cutting to weed
out dead trees and snags but which left an al
mighty and unsightly mess) is, according to some
lights, necessary.
The forest service makes much of its excellent
watchwords "multiple
good for the greatest number in the long run.
But it still needs to be reminded, sometimes,
that, by jingo, the Americans ALL Americans
-K)vn the forests. How long will the great bulk of
them tolerate dirty, unpoliced camps, and indis
criminate, poorly planned timber cutting? E. A.
Americanus Moronicus
Bill Jenkins, over in Klamath Falls, is sim
ilarly irritated. Last week his wrath was di
rected at the Great American Litterbug, too.
In part, his Herald & News column said :
"There is a great to-do every so often about ail the
. land we are losing to erosion, to bad land practices,
to ill advised industrial projects. But little is said
about all the land that is being lost due to simple
littering.
"If anyone is interested I can point out miles and
miles of roads that would be pretty, some beautiful,
were it not for the shameful litter that has accu
mulated ...
"Many people, misguided of course, can look with
enthusiasm at the prospect of a 20 per cent gain in
population. But will these same people be equally
enthusiastic over a 20 per cent jump in the amount
of trash that is unloaded along the public highways,
in private driveways, in our parks and monuments,
dumped into our rivers and trout streams?
"I doubt it."
HERE'S one more thing about litterbugs.
They cost you money.
The state highway commission spends thou
sands of dollars every year cleaning up their
roadsides money which could be saved, and
put to better use, if it weren't for the thoughtless,
the careless, the deliberately sloppy Americanus
Moronicus the litterbug. E. A.
East-West Highway
Transportation is society's life-blood.
That is the reason for all the fuss over the
so-called "Winnemucca-to-the-Sea" route.
California is making its pitch to become the
western end of this route, by digging a tunnel
under Oregon mountain on the Redwood high
way, and otherwise improving that road.
QRANTS PASS and Medford are both under
standably enthusiastic about an improved
east-west highway through their environs.
Another major link, which, if all goes well,
will be completed in less than two years, is the
new all-weather trans-Cascade highway going
past Lake of the Woods, to connect to the paved
highway to Klamath Falls. "
From Klamath Falls east to Adel, the route
is a paved, good-standard highway.
A ND progress is being made east of there, too.
"Nevada is working on the road from Win
nemucca northwest to the state line. Lake county
has finished the next 17 miles to 80 Der cent of
grade, having done most
Ll 1. . 1
won wui-k; anu is now pioneering anocner bJ2
miles, which will later be constructed by the state.
The state has undertaken resnonsibilitv for
the remaining 15 ';. miles, through Blizzard Gap,
down Greaser canyon (the worst section), and
across the Warner valley to Adel.
By 1963, it should be possible to go from
Crescent City to Wihnemucca (and on east to
Salt Lake City) on good
use," and "the greatest

paper: in fact the contrary i often the case.
Why?
To the Editor: Why do you
not print the news about
Mexico? We hear on the radio
about Mexico joining In sup
port of Castro. For two or
three days we have heard on
the air about speeches in the
Mexican congress in favor of
Castro and against the United
States. But I have searched
your paper in vain for one
little item about this issue.
Why?
Carroll Powell,
Box 621.
Central Point, Ore.
Editor's note: The story to
which Mr. Powell refers con
cerned a leading member of
the Mexican congress making
a speech sympathetic to Cas
tro. The AP apparently
thought the story more im
portant than the UPI did, and
some papers thought it more
important than others. In the
squeeze of reporting political
developments, rioting in the
Congo, U.S. response to
Cuba's allegations and vice
versa, Khrushchev's insults,
plus local news, the few para
graphs we received on the
matter were omitted.
the Hard Way
To the Editor: When I read
articles written by maladjust
ed non-conformists such as
Mr. Walter Reece I am re
minded of a family that lived
in our neighborhood just prior
to the first World War.
The father was a natural
ized German American who
antagonized everyone with his
criticisms of his adopted coun
try, and never lost an oppor
tunity to show that his sym
pathies lay with his Father
land. The first thing every morn
ing the entire family was
marched into the front room
to salute a large framed pic
ture of the Kaiser.
His entire family was
forced to pay for his disloyal
actions because there was such
strong resentment by every
one. Years passed. The children
grew old enough to shift for
themselves and he gained his
life's ambition-he had saved
enough to go back to Germany
for an extended visit.
When he got there things
were not the same as he
thought they were and he
soon returned.
In the meantime his wife
had packed up and left. Her
sons had helped her start a
rooming house.
He came home to an empty
house, a few sticks of furni
ture and the large picture of
the Kaiser.
He spent the rest of his days
a friendless, lonely, disillu
sioned old man.
Times have not changed in
some respects. Some people
have to learn the hard way.
Here is a suggestion - the
thing that hurts an egocentric
more than anything else is
to be Ignored.

reader of your newspaper, I

clusion that you strive at all
times to be fair. Therefore, I
feel that you would not hesi
tate to give Senator Wayne

does something praiseworthy.

Dear Senator Morse: We
have considered Mr. David
Frisch's complaint that the
available space and canteen
service are inadequate at the
Veterans Administration Dom
iciliary. White City. Ore. We
investigated a similar com
plaint made by Mr. Frisch last
November but could not sup
port his principal allegations
except for the inadequacy of
space. A project is scheduled
for 1963 which should correct
the space problem.
We are sending a copy of
this letter to the Veterans Can
teen Service Field Director,
San Francisco, Calif., with the
request that during hi next
visit to this station he and the
manager consider talking
with Mr. Frisch to see if a
better understanding can be
reached.

Model A
To the Editor: There are
those who view with an atti
tude approaching dismay my
dislike of the so-called mod
ern automobiles and trucks
and my enthusiasm of the old
Model A Ford cars and trucks.
My reason for such is sim
plicity, folks, simplicity. No
vehicle ever made in these
decadent (?) United States was
so simple andor easy to keep
in repair. I'd make a rough
guess that my Ford AA truck
is in as safe an operating con
dition as any vehicle on the
road more than one year old,
and perhaps safer than some
of those less than one year
old.
I've thought about contact
ing Mr. Khrushchev of Russia
to see about getting one of
these trucks new from there,
as I understand they arc still
made in Russia. I wonder, am
I un-American? I doubt it.
However, personally, I don't
think very much of these au
tomatic mixmaster transmis
sions, automatic pilot, no
brains required, vehicles that
are far too fast becoming a
common thing on the road.
With tongue in cheek I
could say that those who arc
too lazy to steer an automo
bile, roll the windows up or
down, shift the gears, turn the
lights on or off or dim them,
etc., etc., should be taken out
and shot (I didn't say where
or what with).

What's New and How?
To the Editor: "Again
What's News?"
Your Friday's e dl I o r 1 a 1
asked this vital question.
Small minds speak or write
about people, mature minds,
about events, and great minds
teach abstract wisdom.
It has been truly slated that
"facts" arc neither true or
false; just "facts."
In addition to the five W's,
Ihe news should reveal "the
means" used and the "how."
United Slates Justice Felix
Frankfurter has denounced
the press as "the mis-educators"
of the people. However,
It is a fact that no one man in
these United States has "mls
educnlcd" the people more
than Felix Frankfurter In the
Saeco-Vanzctti case of 1020-27.
As a young lawyer, and later
as a professor at Harvard law
school, Mr. Frankfurter with

told: Not too little perhaps,
but surely too lno.
There probably wus a time
some many months ago when
Kennedy would hnve suffered

aimed at him here. But, com-
other pseudo liberals, repeat
edly "mis-educated" the poo
plo by statements that these
"two poor immigrants were
put to death for the crime of
liberal thought."
The facts reveal Sacco und
Vanzetti were tried for mur
der and not for any treason
able thoughts or activities.
When Sacco was arrested he
wus carrying a 32-ciilibre pis
tol containing nine bullets,
with 23 more bullets in his
pocket. Vanzetti when or
rested was currying a 38-cal-ibrc
revolver, fully loaded,
plus four 12-gauge shotgun
shells in his pocket.
The bullet from Succo' 32
callbre pistol matched the
bullet found In watchman
Berradelll's dead body, and
the shotgun shells In Vanzet
tl's pocket was a vital part of
the state's evidence, plus pos
itive identification, in an cur
lier unsuccessful payroll hold
up in which a 12-gaugc shot
gun had been used.
Yet two recent TV shows
distorted the facts and "mis
educated" many of the un
informed viewers regarding
Sacco-Vanzetti.
Question: Does the press
have the moral, if not legal,
obligation to expose such dis
tortions? What corrections may the
press perform?
First, withhold the names
of persons, organizations or
items pertaining to identifica
tion, in news articles or pic
ture, informing the reader
said name, etc., may be found
on back page under a number.
Second, If a crime, not any
minor violation, publish the
name, only upon a plea of
guilty or upon conviction
thereof.
Third, inform the reader
"by what means" the news
event was experienced, where
it Is known, or the means
used.
Fourth, require reporters to
use more care in checking the
Information alleged from the
storehouse which every good
newspaper has In their
morgue.

a
HjUIE second assignment Is
hardly less critical than
the first. For the Nixon as
sumption that Kennedy would
be the winner had led to well-
advanced planning for an all
out Nixon effort In the south
-an effort In which President
Elsenhower personally would
he asked lo lake purl by go
ing Into Dixie for speeches In
behalf of the Nixon ticket.
The President, of course, Is a
civil rights moderate. Nixon,
too, leans more in that direc

The estimate of tho Nixon
forces has bcon that Kennedy
would be weak in the south
for two reasons - the fact that
he Is a Catholic, and the prob
ability he would run on an
extreme Democratic civil
rights plank likely to be
adoplcd here, Nixon, In a
word, not only wants the
south but concedes he well
might need it.
He believes, however, that

this baffles somo of the pollll-
