' ' Rarely have we seen such selfless devotion to a cause as that now being exercised by Oregon politicians and civic agencies bent on saving the regional headquarters of the postoffice for Port land. The experience is heartwarming, exciting and inspirational and we are looking forward to the next maneuver in the struggle with almost breath less anticipation. It is very nearly magnificent how men and women of both political parties can rise to a chal lenge of this sort with no thought at all how it will affect their political fortunes. DUT it is also one of the ironies of this election year that a man who is not a candidate has been the most effective advocate both of keeping the postoffice in Portland and of the congression al bill which authorized the lioardman bombing range to the state of Ore' gon for a space age industrial park. When the dust had releases, the statements, and the telegrams stirred up by the announce ment of the postoffice L. Morse who apparently ftflORSE persuaded Sen. Olin Johnston, chair man of the powerful civil service committee, to action until his committee could conduct an in vestigation. We suspect worded message to Postmaster Gen. Arthur Sum- merheld was decisive in dispenser of political patronage face to face with the follv of his ways. Morse was a chief the successful Boardman bill, and Oregon is deep ly indebted to him for this work. Curiously, the senator's efforts have been largely ignored by the press, but this, too, may be a tribute to his effectiviness. Portland Re porter. , Hail Miss Oregon! Talent, beauty and poise the stock in trade of all good "Miss" contests have brought the title "Miss Oregon" to Salem this year, and let us say we think the judges were fair and discern ing. Certainly our Rosemary Doolen is worthy of the honor and we are proud of her. And at least our new state champion is an Oregon girl, too. Not that we weren't also proud of Tnema Masserdotti, the beauteous 1959 "Miss Salem" who took first runner-up honors in the state competition. Because we were. And the fact she was from California made not a whit of difference. B UT the 1960 "Miss Oregon" is from the state she reDresents. And while her home is m Med ford, we're still glad she chose Williamette Uni versity for her education and that she was truly "Miss Salem" prior to her "promotion." She might well become "Miss America," too. We'll be pulling for her, for sure. There are a lot of beautiful, talented girls in Our Valley. And one of these days one of our own home-area pro ducts will top the list, too. That is, if our Junior Chamber of Commerce keeps up its fine sponsor ship. We hope it does. The "Miss Oregon" con test, both in entries and operation, is on a high plane. Hail Miss Oregon! Oregon Statesman, Salem. Too One editor, who got tired of receiving abuse on every editorial he wrote, no matter what the subject or what point of view he took, decided to try an experiment. So he printed the Ten Com mandments with no additional comment in his column one day. Sure enough, by return mail, he received a letter from an irate reader: "Cancel my subscrip tion, you bum. You're getting too darn personal!" The Packer, Kansas City Mo. Blind Usually it is the youngsters who astound us with knowledge of things unfamiliar to us. But parents can still demonstrate superior knowledge in a few instances. For example : Hand one of today's grade or junior high students an ordinary ink blotter. More than likely, having been bom and reared in the age of the ballpoint, he'll have to ask you what it is. Eugene Register-Guard. Americans Earn More Than Ever Washington IUPU The Com merce department reports that Americans generally earned more and had more to spend last year than ever before, but few of the nation's farm ers shared the economic re covery. The Office of Business Eco nomics said Sunday night, in a report on the IBS!) calendar year, that national personal income rose by S'23 billion, up 6 per cent over 1958. It credited a sharp recovery in manufacturing and expand ing business activity for the upturn, which was in contrast to a 13 per cent drop in in come fro magrtculture. The report said: "The ad the U.S. Navy to transfer settled over the press the counter-statements move, it was Sen. Wayne delivered the goods. senate post office and demand a delay of the that Johnston's sharply bringing the OUf s chiet architect and steward ot V 'ersona Spot vances in the main represent ed increases in real purchas ing power . . . with consumer prices up about 1 per cent" and average personal income 6 per cent higher than In 1958. California led income ad vance both in dollar volume and in percentage, followed closely by Florida, which ranks first in gains over the past 30 years.

The Mail Tribune reserves the right to edit all letters with a riaw to clarification and condensation. Letters eubmitted for pub lication must not exceed 400 words. The letters printed in this column do not necossarily represent the view of the paper; in fact the contrary it often the case. On Reverence and Filth To the Editor: I quote from one of your readers who wrote me Thursday regarding my letter in last Wednesday's paper. "I see you as a stupid fool that is a detriment to the Catholic or Protestant faith." He said more such as "a filthy rotten liar" and so on. This gentleman even sign ed his name with a "Rev." before it. Don't get alarmed now and start checking up. He was a pastor from out of town. I've written him a friendly letter already this a.m. I do kno-y this, that our Heavenly Father who actual ly is the only one who can rightfully be termed as Rev erend is the only one who really knows what is in our hearts. I'm thankful He is the Judge. Let's change the subject and talk on something that is real ly "filthy, rotten," and full of lies. Right here in this area our people are being brain wash ed with stronger material than Johnson has ever written to the editor. My youngest boy loves Indian stories. A friend loaned him a colorful book called Proud Land, put out by Bantam Books in New York. I checked the preface. Here are some quotes. "Powerful novel of the mighty Apache war chief, Victorio, and his fateful bloody campaign." "Has blood, heroics, melo drama and fighting aplenty." "A fascinating novel, runs red with slaughter." I have not read any fur ther, nor do I intend that my son shall. On one of the back pages is an advertisement for a book entitled "Louisville Saturday." Over 1,000,000 copies are in print. Here are the actual words from this ad: "Her husband was away fighting a war . . . he wouldn't mind her having a friend - just a gentleman trlend, would he . . .? The soldiers came to town, by ones and twos and threes . . . and like soldiers everywhere, they had just one thing in their minds. And the women wait ed for them . . . Young, un tried women, reckless women, women who longed for love." Is it any wonder that we see the vilest crimes, the ruin ed lives around us when such rotten filth is fed upon. Here wc are trying to raise our boys and girls to become good citizens and along comes the devil and tries to undo all the good and feed their tender minds on such filth. It is time we arise to stem the tide of filth. Henry Johnson jr. 2400 Highway 66 Ashland, Ore, Everything Changes To the Editor: On a trip re cently with a Medford friend north on old Highway 99 to Gold Hill, we stopped to see an old friend who has been a resident for the past 61 years of southern Oregon and environs and is one of the last old remaining pioneers of the gold mining days when he had the honor of playing in the one time 35 piece brass band. Wc talked on a range of sub jects In a space of minutes, then departed on through the much transformed town of Rogue River, once our erst while "stomping ground." Riding west on the north side of the Rogue river wc saw the new super elevated grade of the new "free way" which when completed will really be the superlative de gree. The colossal construc tion is almost equal to level ing mountains for miles and miles. Where once were only unsightly worked out placer Menace the name and address of the diggings and old miner's cab ins along the river, are now super green fields and hand some homes. Old landmarks once familiar to me 40 years ago have been obliterated or grown up in trees that have changed the landscape like turning a desert waste Into an oasis. Everything changes except "time" itself. Bert Kissinger 520 Boardman st. Medford Herblock and Editorial Hit To the Editor: I would like to agree with the writer con cerning somebody's poor taste in using Herb Block as the official cartoonist. His low caliber of lampooning, regard less of party, certainly doesn't pay compliments to a dis criminating editor. I some times feel that this paper is deliberately using the lowest form of Democratic propagan da hoping to drive sensible Democrats to the other side. Referring to the Editorial Aug. 11 . . . Not being a social scientist, psychologist, economist, etc., as some of your humble writ ers are, I can't understand how an editor with so much military insight can be wasted away at such a non-technical job of writing factual articles. I suspect that experts like Curtis LeMay just aren't blessed with consultants of your caliber, or we would probably not even have to put up with these "fly-boys" who play "cops and robbers" in the sky. i'm sending your ar ticle to my friend in SAC who will undoubtedly per. suade them to call the whole thing off so we sacrificial citizens can receive our mail and Esquire magazines on schedule.

Everett Acklin Ashland, Ore. Abuses of Property T othe Editor: Please, while you are seeking editorial writ ing themes, take the following for an article. The Applegate river is the only river in Oregon where deeds to property often desig nate the middle of the river as the boundary line, there fore whoever crosses your property to get into the river is trespassing. We, the owners, are grow ing weary of discourteous youth taking over a family swimming hole to the utter ex clusion of ourselves-keeping it all day. If you ask them to move up or down river they use obscene language - jeer you-accuse you of being full of bull-and refuse to move. Owners cannot plan to have their own swimming party. They drink beer-then use the empty bottles for targets -leave broken glass which is dangerous.' They use the beach for a lavatory. They get so drunk they have a hard time walking to their cars. They use your own private driveway to turn around in they spin their wheels until it's so dusty one cannot see the car. They tear down your "No Trespassing" signs. They cut your fences and drive onto your property. Some adults are as bad as the young people. You cannot go down to the river without the fear of finding a couple in a compro mising situation. All these things are happen ing every day. Where are the parents of these young people who lack moral decency? No one would deny decent family groups to swim in the river. All one would require would be the common cour tesy of cleaning up after themselves. If this continues the people will be forced to close their property to trespassers. A fire on July S was caused by two young people. It took the crew from the Star Rang er station until 3 a.m. to con tain this fire. Everything, car make, color, boy and girl, are known, but the license num ber. To protect ourselves some of us are taking all car li cense numbers. The state traf fic officers are very coopera tive in this matter. This may be checked with Mr. Suttel, ranger at the Star Ranger station, phone TW 9- 1169, home TW 9-1219.

Dependence and Independence To the Editor: In these days when everyone talks of rights and few of duties, it is impor tant for Americans to recall that the Declaration of Inde pendence is also a Declaration of Dependence. The Declaration of Inde pendence asserts a double de pendence: Dependence on God, and dependence on law as derived from God. Where do we get the right of free speech, freedom of conscience. the right to own property? from the state? If so, the state could take them away. The Declaration of Independ ence gives us the answer: "We hold these truths to be self- evident that all men arj cre ated equal, that they are EN DOWED BY THEIR CREA TOR with certain unalienable RIGHTS, that among these are life, liberty and the pur suit of happiness." In other words, we get these rights from GOD-we are dependent and that initial dependence is the foundation of independ ence. Because we are dependent on God, it follows that it is religions first duty to pre serve that relationship be tween man and his creator. Religion and Democracy therefor are not the same. There are some alarmists that shriek against union of church and state, but would never protest againts the identifica tion of Religion and Democra cy. The two are as different as soul and body. Religion is primarily for the salvation of man's soul, and Democracy is primarily for the prosperity and common good of the na tion. God is not Caesar and Caesar is not God! There should be standards for all professions. A barber, in order to get a license must know how to cut hair, a plumber must know how to thread pipe, a stone cutter must know how to chisel-in the right sense of the term. But in the field of religion it is too commonly assumed that a man can be an authority on religion without being reli gious. A minimum condition that should be imposed upon all who talk religion is that they say their prayers and practice the basic elements of religious belief, namely Charity and love of fellow man. Bigotry is not a religious concept by any stretch of the imagination. Democracy becomes for the communist an object of hate because it will not allow him to destroy Democracy. God becomes an object of hate for the Godless because He per mits the man wno sins to feel the consequences of Sin. Goodness, Truth and Justice always appear as resistance, opposition, or anger to those who rebel against virtue. Criticism, from the truly experienced and informed, can be constructive, but from the inexperienced and unin formed, it becomes bigotry. Ken Corliss 1564 Myers Lane Medford. Gold and Communism To the Editor: While the headlines stress wars and rumor, of wars, Communism proceeds on schedule, unno ticed by most, to bankrupt America. At the present rate the goal will be reached be fore Jan. 1. We now have only $100 million in gold not subject to foreign claims. $178 million went out in July. Today no reputable ecoio mist cares about this. Present economists believe it would be "healthy" if Europe had claims on all our gold, or maybe more than all of it. In business this is called bank ruptcy. If I owe $100,000 and have $75,000 to pay it, I am broke. My creditors have two choices. Let me go and hope I can pull out of it, or press me and force bankruptcy. Present indications show clearly what Europe will do. They want gold. Russia has vast gold re sources. She can mine them and sell for any price she chooses. Wages are the major part of any manufacturing or construction job. Russia usually pays no wages for such projects in Siberia. Fran cis Powers would make a good miner. There are millions more in the same category -enemies of the state. A star vation diet and barracks hous ing until one dies of overwork and malnutrition costs very little. American goods already cost too much for Europe. They even beat our own goods in America. The end result of the 1934 money -juggling plus 13 years of foreign aid is about to pay off. Since gold miners have no votes compar ed to a labor union, the gov ernment will do nothing to stop this. They really don't care. Communism, therefore, is the wave of the future, bar ring Divine intervention. parKer Bailey 542V4 "A" street Ashland, Ore. Foods for Survival To the Editor: The program of the state convention of Natural Food Associates, which will be held at the Wil son school in Medford on Thursday, Aug. 25, will be built around the theme "Foods for Survival in the Atomic Age." One interesting feature will be the 20 or more dis play booths dealing with this subject. These displays will feature many things of inter est to all growers whether for private or commercial pur poses. One of the most valuable displays from the nutrition standpoint is a display of chromatograms made of both natural (unprocessed) and pro cessed foods. Chromatograms have been used in wine an alysis since 1944 but their use in food analysis was unknown until 1953 when Dr. Shren- fried E. Pfeiffer, internation ally known soil expert, per fected the process for graphic ally illustrating hidden differ ences in soils. Since then he has applied the technique to show differences in foods, as for instance, between bleach ed white flour and organically produced stone ground whole wheat flour. The display will show graphically by the dif ferences between 15 pairs of commonly used foods. Another display that should be of value to all gardeners will be the display of organic ally grown food. This display will contain dates and other fruits as well as vegetables. These foods will be auctioned off at the end of the meeting. Another display will show natural control of insect pests. Immediately after the ban quet the N.F.A. film "Living Soil" will be shown. The ban quet will consist entirely of organically produced food. It is limited to 225 persons. Tickets may be had at the health food stores or from members. The N.F.A. group have planned a very informative and varied program. All in terested nelsons are urged to attend. Anna M. Streed 39 North Peach st. Medford. Two Questions To the Editor: Attached is copy of the letter I sent to Lodge, Nixon, Kennedy and Johnson. Gentlemen: There afe two issues that areof vital impor tance to millions of us com mon people and we will ap preciate a c'.ear cut answer to these questions. Will you, if elected next November, support and ap prove the Forand-Morse bills providing medical benefits to Social Security retirees? Will you approve and sup port legislation designed to reduce the present excessive Social Security tax on those in the lower wage brackets by raising the present $6,000 maximum to $30,000? With each of the approxi mately 8,000 members in our Post Card Clubs telling ten persons, each of those telling ten, and so on, we can bring this information to most of those interested before elec tion day. Claude M. Hall 2860 Hartley lane Grants Pass, Ore. Teen-Agert at Work To the Editor: Happily, sometimes, when faith in our future citizens is at low ebb, we get restoring uplift. Like a recent letter from Jimmy, a graduate of junior high here.

Kennedy will move shortly to re - emphasize that, as the Democratic presidential can didate, he wants the votes of all sections of the country and of the con servative a s well as the liberal faction of his party. Though h e does not con cede that any such impres sion is justified, he is aware, that a fair-minded observer could honestly suspect that the left-wing Democrats have moved in upon him. In any event, he did not plan it that way, nor will any such total impression be allowed to stand if he can help it. It has been largely happen stance that ultra-liberal Dem ocrats - and powerful labor bosses - have so far made up the bulk of his calling lists. He is glad to see these men, of course, and does not pro pose to alienate them. But he dad decided him against 'go ing to college,' as well as se rious objections to certain morals of young men there he would have to associate with. Instead, he chose a job in a Eugene super-market, as gen eral hany-man. Now, a year later, he's a salesman in charge of the dairy products and frozen foods division. "The hours are often long and hard but good for me," he writes. "My 175 weight (in the right places) is sure handy when juggling 75 lb. milk cases and heavier ones of frozen foods. And the extra cash award is handy too, for in my den upstairs I can relax in my new reclining chair or peck away on my wholesale - bought typewriter or enjoy my favorite pro grams or my own television that my mom and grandmoth er don't like." He tells much more of youth problems but space forbids. A smiling ranch - woman from the high-country east of Medford tells of their good fortune in hiring two work trained teen-agers. "It was a job," she told us, "to see how they tied into cleaning irriga tion ditches and digging new laterals, so necessary, but my husband's poor health pre vented." Then she told of haying time when she heard one of them shout to a 12 year old neighbor boy no names or locations please) driving a truck, not to stop, but keep driving slow as the two husky teen-agers could load and stack the bales while moving along, and hustle them out of the way for sec ond cuttings, coming on. All of which can mark the dif ference, on the farm, between profit and loss. There is the 14 year old lad who fled the iron curtain of his dad's southeast Portland truck farm where his work training started at 6 years of age, weeding. Fibbing his age, he got a roustabout job with a chain store. It was a lark, a glorlus freedom as he gal loped about his duties, with his own money to buy his choice of food instead of the unsalable split cabbage his father cut four -ways for him, his brother and sisters at noon-time meal. With such grim background everything, everywhere was up to this ambitious youngster, includ ing salesman and district man ager ere he was hardly out of his teens. F. J. Clifford Route 2, Box 200F Central Point, Ore. m William 8. WWt HIGH STANDARD Regardless of price, every memorial service held here is complete in all respects. We take pride in conducting a service that will be remembered with appreciation by the family and friends. S. WHITE is acutely sensitive to the fact that the Democratic party is by no means represented sole ly by men like Averell Harri man and Adlai Stevenson and that there are millions of Democrats who do not auto matically distrust business but do distrust labor politicians like Walter Reuther. THUS, Kennedy is privately pointing out that his whole past record is that of a moder ate and responsible liberal. He is suggesting to moderate and conservative Democrats alike that a politician who for 14 years has never been a wild man is not going to be one in the White House, should he reach that mission. He feels he proved this in chosing Sen. Lyndon B. John son as vice-presidential candi date. He thinks - and with some justification that he has done much, at the end of the Democratic convention and afterward, to re-unite the party. So he believes he is entitled to the assumption that this position so recently and so painfully cemented to gether, will not be torn reck lessly apart by him should he win the election. He wants no north versus south, no urban versus rural, no east versus midwest, no hot-eyed ideological contest in the campaign. This desire, of course, rests partly upon plain politics. Kennedy in no way underrates the Nixon-Lodge Republican ticket. He fully recognizes that his, inherent advantage - that there are more nominal Democrats than Republicans - could be read ily cast away by setting lib eral Democrats sheep upon conservative Democrati c goats. But if expediency moves him in part, there is more to it. Kennedy on all past form is entitled to be regarded as a national as distinguished from a sectional or ideological poli tician. (So, indeed, is his op ponent, Nixon.) He has a deep interest in winning not merely the elec tion but the country, too. He requires no instruction in the basic fact that he needs not merely to be elected but also to be able to govern after ward. SO HE will not willingly be come stamDed as solely the candidate of the ultra liberal Democrats, the labor fellows, the big cities and the ivy league eggheads. Genuine efforts to get along with busi ness, for illustration, will be made through a committee to be headed by a southern moderate, Gov. Luther Hodges of North Carolina. . This is not to be one of those mere letterhead outfits. Kennedy intends to give it status. Again, the celebrated Kennedy "brain trust" of ivy league professors will not long remain strictly an east ern seaboard enterprise. The candidate is already looking around for good western egg heads to join this grove of academy. If Kennedy can in fact keep a proper balance toward the own party, as Nixon will al most certainly do with the right-wing extremists in the Republican party, this, more than ever, will be a safe pre diction: no matter which man wins, the country will be no loser.
