THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13. 1960 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE. Administration Officials Glad Khrushchev Leaving United States Reverberations Of Premier's Linger By STEWART HENSLEY r Washington - (UPD - Admin- . istration officials are glad So viet Premier Niklta S. Khru- ' shchev is leaving ths United Nations scene but they are unhappily aware that the re verberations of his fantastic 25-day performance will lin ger on. It is too early to tell, top officials said today, just what the long-range effects may be. Some of the time bombs planted by the Soviet premier may yet blow the world or ganization wide open, or tilt its influence against the West. . The problem facing U. S. strategists is how to defuse . them. U. S. officials acknowledg ed that' the next administra tion, be it Democratic or Re publican, must find more ef- Hunters Spent Night in Woods - Two young hunters, Ralph and Richard Todd, of 12 Ash land St., Medfordwere found Wednesday after spending the night in a cave, Jackson county, sheriff's deputies, re ported today. - Ralph, 20, and Richard, 11, found their way out of the Lake Creek area east of Med ford by following a stream down hill and making their way. to the Stokes ranch. They were taken to the Lake Creek store where they were picked up by sheriff's depu ties. -.- The sheriff's office received a call this morning from the two boys' father, Ralph An gus Todd, that his sons were missing over night while hunt ing in the McAllister Soda Springs area. 'He searched the area himself and found the boys' jeep at Soda Springs. DeGaulle Ponders Nuclear Force Paris- (UPD""'-i "president Charles de Gaulle, threatened by the gravest government crisis since he took power two years ago, Wednesday consid efed staking his political life on his plan to equip France with her own nuclear striking force. , Hostility toward de Gaulle's "strongman" regime has been building up steadily both in side and outside parliament. A government spokesman said de Gaulle in a three-hour meeting with his cabinet, p r e p a r atory to Thursday's stormy opening of the Nation al Assembly, considered put ting to a confidence vote his controversial defense plan. It is bitterly opposed by almost all parties except de Gaulle's own Union for the New Re public, and has seriously wor ried France's European allies. v First explosive powder mill In America was' opened in 1802. : . fective ways to enlist the support, of the newly inde pendent African nations, as well as tile still struggling senior members of the Asian African group. . , . . President Eisenhower out lined the generalities of such a program in his U.

S. officials believe Khru shchev failed to make any immediate inroads on. the vot ing balance in the United Na tions. But he sowed enough confusion to create doubt in the minds of the uncommitted nations as to just where their best course lies. ' . Violtnct Repels Uncommitted The violence of his attack on U. N. Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold tended to repel delegates from most of Voters Felt To Have Largely Cosmetic Reaction From Nixon-Kennedy Debates; One Issue. Brought Heated Discussion By A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Washington . Correspondent - Washington The most curious thing about .these televised debates between the two presiden tial candi dates is that 4 v o t e r s at 4 home show a largely cosmetic i reaction. - Only one is sue provoked intense . d i s A RnbL SmitH CUSsiOn. ; During both of the first two debates, this correspond ent watched the TV debates in two different living rooms crowded with every-day gar den variety citizens of vari ous political persuasions and with no personal role ' in either campaign. . Although in both instances there . were sharp disagree ments on general party, affili ation, . there was : - general agreement that Sen. John F. Kennedy won the. first debate hands down i and that Vice President Richard; M. . Nixon won . the second debate by a close margin.; ; , ; , , , . ; But nobody talked about why 'one fellow: did better than i the other except in terms of cosmetics. - - "Nixon looked sick," said a white-haired gentleman who admits neither candidate is liberal enough for him. His staunchly Republican wife conceded Kennedy had out talked her man and looked more sure of himself. Reminded of Puppy. ."Kennedy reminded me of our puppy," said a - young minister who is a Democrat. His puppy is very eager, he explained. . "There was something wrong with Nixon's collar," offered"; a' Republican in search of an explanation for his man's performance. "There was something wrong with his makeup, said another, "you could see it in a glob on his chin. - "That was perspiration. countered another. - "He was just nervous. I've ' read that Kennedy rattles him." The second debate brought similar commentary, only the words were different and the conclusion that Nixon made a snappy comeback, that his makeup job was better, and he patted his perspiring chin with a hanky when the cam era ' wasn't supposed to be looking. Those who heard the de bate on radio had an altogether different reaction, judging from a few reports. No one was conscious of what the men looked like, or how they combed their hair. In stead,' they listened for the quality of the voice. . ycoWoNsTi II It Distilled LohdoiiDry Gin DISTILLED i BOTTLED IN THE U. S. A.

Furnishing Criiiciied If the viewers weren t bothered by cosmetics they turned to the studio furn ishings. . ; .! -' . - . 'They looked like - they were in the docks," said a Nixon fan who Wished the candidates didn't have , to stand up for a whole hour while "those lazy reporters were sitting down." . A reporter in the crowd suggested possibly she had cited the chief difference be tween reporters and politi cians. Each likes It that way. Only one issue outside of these superficialties was raised in both living rooms the issue which perhaps is quietly discussed by many voters but by -neither Of the candidates on TV. That is Kennedy's religion. Nobody in the first group, all of them Protestants, op posed Kennedy because of his Catholicism. The minister said that while he had some points of disagreement with Kennedy's church, he could not hold Kennedy responsible for them nor deny him high office on that account. Anoth er man,-, a Republican, thought it tragic that Kennedy should be criticized . on this score from those who "pray to the same Lord Jesus Christ that he does." ,. , In' the second group several viewers expressed strong anti-Catholic convictions. A young i couple, Republicans and Methodists, expressed fear that Kennedy's election would bring a host of Catho lics into high places in gov ernment A Protestant coun tered by pointing out that every Protestant president has appointed Catholics to his cabinet and official family, and that Kennedy would have to lean over backward not to appear' to be doing fa- fori for -his church in, this delicate matter. ; - .:. A Mormon doctor, who is a Democrat, got wound up on the subject and expressed strong opposition to some measures ' of the . Catholic church. But, asked a Protestant,- what specifically do you think Kennedy could possibly do as President to bring about the aims of the Catho lics church which Protestants oppose? He noted that Ken nedy had voted against fed real assistance to parochial schools as a senator. Court Choices Attacked ' The doctor focused his at tack on the power of the president to appoint justices of the Supreme Court, who in turn interpret the - laws and have a decisive influence on wha is declared consitu tional. But other presidents have appointed Catholics to the court, countered a pro Kennedy Protestant lady, and nobody has ever been able to Douglas Research Project Started Corvallis-A project for re search in forest management has been initiated by the State of Oregon with awarding of a logging contract by the state forestry department. Kenneth and Frank Bain, Mill City, will be logging with horses on a 110-acre state-owned for est located' south of Gates in the North Santiam area. Purpose of the study is to provide silvicultural and eco nomic data for management of young Douglas fir timber A variety of cutting proced ures and logging methods will be followed. Alan Berg, associate direc tor of forest lands research, Oreeon-Forest Research Cen ter, Corvallis, will direct the collection of data on volume of material removed, effects of thinnine young stands, and costs of different methods of logging. George Schoppert, state - forestry department, will supervise the logging. The study was approved in 1957 by the forest -lands ad visory committee of the re search center,.- the- Oregon State Board of Forestry, and the Linn county court. Log ging the - area was delayed until this fall because of mar keting conditions for lumber. Research ,in forest manage- meht-by the research center i. financed by. a tax" of five I cents for each thousand board feet of timber harvested in 'Oregon, v show that they interpreted tne laws to the advantage of their church while the Pro testant justices went the op posite direction. Nobody thought to add that Cpngress, which is heavily Protestant, writes " the laws; and as for the appointment of justices or cabinet officers and -their - deputies, all of these must first be cleared by the Senate,, which has only 12 Catholic members out of 100 this year. Another Mormon argued strongly, with the doctor and was strong for Kennedy v. He said he just didn't . trust Nixon, but his reasons . for distrusting. the vice president were about as hary a j those who evinced' distrust of his rival's church. . - Three G a t h o 1 i c s in the crowd silently let the Pro testants slug it out. Two of them are all for Nixon. - the uncommitted nations. Khrushchev gained little sup port for his demand that Ham marskjold be replaced by a three-member council repre senting, East, West and neu trals. However, he. did command great interest with his de mand that underdeveloped na tions be given a more power ful voice in U. N. affairs. ." His most effective device was to identify Russia with the strong desire of smaller nations for greater represen tation on the Security Coun cil and more say in the oper ation of the executive arm. This appeal, along with Khrushchev's call for imme diate and unconditional free dom for all remaining colo nial, areas, undoubtedly left a lasting impression on many Asian and African delegates The Russians can be expected to exploit this to the full. The Soviet premier appar ently gained no ground in his effort to. convince U. N. mem bers that the West is dead wrong on such explosive is sues as disarmament, Berlin and . Germany. However, he undoubtedly had little hope of making any specific prog ress on those issues at this time. Strengthens Position American authorities be lieve Khrushchev achieved a major success in one area which has no direct connec tion with the United Nations. They think his table-thumping performances and com pletely rigid and doctrinnaire arguments were designed to reinforce his position as the leader of international com munism against Red Chinese criticism that he has gone "soft" in dealing with the West. . . . He enlisted the satellite leaders of eastern Europe in this campaign and even man aged to improve relations with Yugoslavia's President Tito. As a result, the official U. S. view is that he will be in a much stronger position for his November meeting in Moscow with Red China's Chou En-lai and other Com munist leaders. By contrast, the-only tangi ble western gain from Khru shchev's U. N. operations ap peared to be that once again, by the violence of his attack, he had forced the allied camp closer together. But outside the West, the large body of uncommitted nations was left confused and u n c e r tain - and therefore somewhat vulnerable to fur ther Communist maneuvers. $ SAVE $ 8 Transportation CARS $79&Up LEA MOTORS 12th and Riverside 40 CARS READY TO GO kidney 'n meat liver 'n meat chicken meaty mix chopped fish 5 CAT FOODS Q SILVER DOLLAR STAMPS Q SILVER DOLLAR STAMPS Q SILVER DOLLAR STAMPS q to a. o a a. l l O a a. u) j O a a. t O a BEST FOODS Salad Oil Another famous Best Foods product. .
