In the Days News
By FRANK JENKINS
Let's talk about foreign af
fairs today. There are some
interesting rumors in the
news that just MIGHT turn
into facts.
rpHIS is the big rumor:
A Soviet technicians and
advisers are reported to be
POURING OUT OF RED CHI
NA BY THE TRAINLOAD.
This report is carried by the
Yugoslav official news service
Tanjug, among others.
Why the exodus?
The Yugoslav reports indi
cate that it is the result of
worsening relations between
Russia and Red China. These
"worsening relations" track
back to diverging ideologies.
The Red Chinese leaders stick
to the original Marx-Lenin
theory of the INEVITABILI
TY of war. The Russians have
been doing a lot of talking of
late about COEXISTENCE.
THAT is to say:
Marx and Lenin taught
that war between communism
and capitalism is inevitable
"and that communism will de
stroy capitalism by force of
arms. The theory of coexist
ence is that communism will
triumph over capitalism by
superior efficiency. That is
what Khrushchev is said to
have meant when he said in
Los Angeles: "We will BURY
you." He is alleged to have
meant that Russian socialism
will eventually bury Ameri
can capitalism under social
ism's increasing productivity.
The Chinese stick to t h e
original theory of conquest by
war.
fETTING back to the ru
" more of the Russian EX
ODUS from China, the Red
Chinese authorities are said
on what is described in to
day's dispatches as "good au
these Russian experts with
thority" to have been eyeing
suspicion and to have been
anxious to see to it that they
stuck strictly to their tech
nical jobs and kept their noses
out of Chinese politics.
If it should turn out that
Russian technical experts re
ally ARE getting out of China,
we would have to assume that
the Russians are AFRAID of
China and have come to the
conclusion that the Chinese
are DANGEROUS and should
be given no more help in the
way of technical progress.
As to that, we'd better keep
our fingers crossed - remem
bering that BOTH ARE COM
MUNISTS and communists
can't be trusted.
BUT
We can't be blamed for
recalling, in the face of these
rumors, the ancient proverb:
When thieves fall out, honest
men come into their own.

alite , Barbara Finch, was

Korean Scouts Talk Of Adventures Here; Compare Korea-U.S.
Two teen-agers from Korea
left Medford last week en
route home after spending
more than a month in the
U.S. as guests of the Crater
Lake council, Boy Scouts of
America.
Visiting were Sung Yung
Kang, 13, who was staying
with Mr. and Mrs. Douglas
Hinesly, 1032 Murray St., and
Ki Soo Kim, 17, hosted by Mr.
and Mrs. Shirrel Doty, 46
South Keeneway dr.
The youths arrived in Med
ford July 6 and travelled with
some 75 local Scouts and lead
ers to the national Scout
Jamboree near Colorado
Springs, Colo., leaving here
July 12.
Before leaving recently, the
boys told the Mail Tribune
about their families, their
schools, about the Korean gov
ernment, and their activities
at home, locality, and at the
Jamboree.
The boys were two of 14
scouts selected through exami
nation to attend the fifth na
tional meet this summer. Se
lection was also based on their
experience in scouting.
Fishing Trips
Highlighting their limited
stay in the area was a fishing
trip for Sung Yung and a wat
er skiing adventure for Ki
Soo. At Fish lake, Sung Yung
did his first lake fishing and 1
caught six trout. Several days !
later a "fish fry" took place I
at the Hinesly home. j
Ki Soo experienced his first I
try at water skiing at the !
Lake of the Woods. t
Young Sung Yung is one of
seven children, 4 girls and 3
boys. His father is principal
of the junior and senior high '
school in his locality. He is !
currently enrolled in the ninth
grade. His course of study in
cludes English, world history,
Korean history and govern
ment, music theory, art, and
science.
As a future career, the
Scout is looking towards the
Air Force and engineering.
Study Medicine
Ki Soo intends to go to the
university and study medicine
after he graduates from the
12th grade this spring. His
curriculum includes German,
English, chemical and me
chanical science; music the
ory, world history, and voca
tional subjects. He explains
that the schools are in session
year - round, with one-month
vacations in July and Decem
ber. Graduation is in early
spring.
The boys said that the sec
ondary schools ire separate,
for boys and girls, while the
university is co-educational.
Students must attend school
in Korea until completion of
the sixth grade.
Ki Soo, who has studied
English for some four years,
has two sisters. His father is
a "merchant," dealing in
wholesale merchandise.
The teen-agers represent op
posite ends of South Korea.
Sung Yung lives near Kwang
ju, located in the southern por
tion of the penninsula, and Ki
Soo lives in Chun Chon city,
close to the noted 38 parallel.
Asked what they enjoyed
the most on the Jamboree trip,
the duet replied "Meeting
other Scouts from all over the
world." They also mentioned
the visit to Disneyland in sou
thern California. At the na
tional meet they "swapped"
tales with scores of the 56.000
delegates.
At home the teen-agers pre
fer to "go on picnics" and
hike. In scouting, they are
known as Mountain Men, First
Class, Boy Scouts of America.
Each has had three years of
Cub Scouting and almost
three years of Boy Scouting.
It was explained that in
South Korea there are about
9 councils, some 20 troops in
a council, and about 30 boys
in a t r o o p. Generally, there
are about 675 Scouts in each
Council.
Scout activities in Korea are
"very similar" to those in the
U.S., although, in some cases,
more "simple," according to
the' representatives. Korean
Scouts participate in hikes
and camping activities, as
well as many civic duties. The
boys noted that where they
live all go to church, and
many of the Scouting activi
ties are centered around
church functions.
Accompanied Koreans
Accompanying the Koreans
to the Jamboree were local
Scouts Terry Hinesly, 14, and
David Doty, 13. Terry, a Star
Boy Scout, is in the ninth
grade at McLoughlin Junior
High school; David, an eighth
grader at Hedrick Junior
high, is a First Class Scout.
The local families were able
to host them by request to the
local Boy Scout council.
Shortly before the Jamboree,
it was announced that there
was a possibility that Oriental
Scouts might come to the Med
ford area. The two local fami
lies applied for the teen-agers.
While in the United Slates
the boys have witnessed many
strange things, according to
the local families. A modern
bath tub surprised one Scout
as well as the first horse rido.
Sung Yung had reportedly
never seen a freezer, and both
of the visitors enjoyed for the
first time cantaloupe and
green, seedless grapes.
The Koreans commented on
the number of cars here and
the better highways. They
added that Americans seemed
"friendly." Before leaving
they wore guests at a dinner
given by the Crater Lake
council of the Boy Scouts.
They also made several pub
lic appearances.
Speaking of their native
country, they mentioned the
current political situation
confronting the Korean peo
ple. They told of the current
Communist threat in South
Korea, pressuring for a United
Communist Korea.
Although the Communists
are not too evident, there is
a large Communist under
ground, according to the boys.
Added to this "uneasyness,"
is an unstable government in
South Korea and student dem
onstrations. As one of the Ko
reans said, it is "so risky."
Since Ki Soo lives near the
North-South border, he sees
considerable violence and
Communist aggression.
The two said that through
radio and newspapers they
had heard "all about" the
UniteJ States' troubles with
Russia.
Asked if America was help
ing their country, the teen
agers said "yes" and added,
we "want America to help."
Current examples of Ameri
can assistance were the hospi
tals built by the U.S.
Before leaving for home,
the Koreans also visited Cra
ter lake, and saw their first
drive-in movie. They were to
leave by boat from San Fran
cisco Aug. 13, arriving in Ko
rea some 15 days later. They
were brought to the U.S. by
Army transport.

Nicknames Out
On Oregon Ballot
Salem-WPD - Nicknames are
out for the Oregon ballot,
Secretary of State Howell
Appling Jr. said Tuesday.
The secretary of state cited
a legal opinion which declares
candidates may be identified
on the ballot only by the name
under which they are com
monly known.
The only acceptable name
will be the one appearing on
the candidate's voter registra
tion card.
The secretary of state said
he was not ruling out a short
ened given name if that is the
name which the candidate has
registered and conducts his
normal business, but he will
not accept extraneous nick
names or change ballot name
forms between the primary
and general elections.
The ruling came from re
quests of two candidates who
want to use a shorter form
of their given name for the
November election than they
used in the May primary.
