' Western Auto Supply Western Thrift Woolwerth's Survey Turns Up Support for Two Points of View By Unitad Press International Foreigners seem to be as divided as Republicans and Democrats in gauging U. S. prestige abroad. '.' The rival presidential can didates raised the issue in their second TV debate last week. Vice President Richard M. Nixon said American pres tige was at an "all-time high." Sen. John F. Kennedy said it had deteriorated in the past eight years. A United Press Internation al survey of political writers, commentators and officials in various capitals around the world turned up a measure of support for both points of views. The answers did reveal that the word "prestige" doesn't mean quite the same to every one. Some regarded it' wholly as the amount of respect a na tion can command by virtue of its military, economic or scientific power. Others, more as a measure of the general approval enjoyed by basic American objectives in tne cold war. Dominating Factors Nor did everyone make the test with the same yardstick. To some, the big international questions - the space race, Berlin, etc., - were the domi nating factors. Others appear ed more concerned with nar rower issues that struck clos er to home. In Chile, for example, U.S prestige was rated as being at its highest point since because of massive American aid to victims of the recent earthquakes there. . And in Venezuela, one com mentator said that otherwise high U.S. prestige had been hurt by the latest American sugar purchase from the Do minican Republic, whose gov ernment is under assault as a dictatorship. Typical comment irom some of the countries in Eu rope, Asia, Africa and Latin America: France - Paul Neguie, chief editor of "Oucst-France," lar gest Drovlncial paper in the country. "Certainly American nrostiee lost momentum in October, 1056, when the U.S. opposed intervention In Suez . . . But since then it has gone up again thanks to the coura geous efforts of President Eis enhower and Vice President Nixon in defense of the free world.1' Britain - Sir Linton An drews, editor of the Yorkshire Post: "American prestige still towers In' the world as it did in 1052. Russia's scientific achievements have hit it some hefty blows, but probably most of us in the United King dom still look with undimin ished faith to the U.S. as the leader of the West against Communist aggression." Spain - Pedro Gomez Apar-: iclo, director of the weekly newspaper "Hoja del Lunes:" "The answer is that U.S. pres tige has dropped considerably. It is enough only to mention a few things which are them selves unsolved problems: Berlin, Korea, Indochina, the Middle East, Japan, Cuba, the Soviet satellites. In the space race, Soviet propaganda pre sents to the world only its suc cesses while the U.S. offers both successes and failures. In international politics, the de laying of a problem is an ad mission of a mistake in plan ning a situation or of a lack of energy in solving it." Sweden -Carl-Adam Nycop editor of Expressen: "Th El senhower era has shown one thing; it is never good with a high military officer as Drestdent of a great democ racy. This fact has affected American prestige, especially during the past lour years.' South Africa - Nationalists largely were unhappy with the U.S. Slate Department's criticism of the government's use of violence to put down the Sharpevllle race riots earl ier this year but, as one na tionalist news editor put It: "South Africa and the U.S, are both violently anti-Corn-munlst. This forms an extra strong mutual bond between us." Mexico - Ramon Beteta, di rector general of the newspa- ocr Novedadcs: "Mexican pub lic opinion feels the U.S. is losing the cold war.

Music, Fa i ry Tales, Rushing Water Ease Dentist Drill Pain By PATRICIA McCormack . New. York - IUPD - The sounds of music, fairy tales and rushing water now are helping to , extract the pain from many a child's visit to the dentist. . , ' The sounds - acoustic anal gesia-reach the tiny patients via Stereo tape - recordings beamed ; into . their;-' brains through " two huge, padded earphones. ' A child in the dentist's chair With such gear on his Jiead looks like a pint-sized astro naut headed for the moon. The child manipulates two knobs ,-' one in each hand which control the volume of the sounds. ' ; He's . working in . other words, while the dentist is working on his teeth. ; ; Dr. Jerome S. Mittelman, a New York dentist, reports on the use of acoustic analge sia in the . current issue of Dental Survey, a-professional journal. : ' . Avoids Pain Killers .The big thing about the technique Is that in many cases it makes it possible to avoid using injectable pain killers-and the needle "When the dental work starts to hurt," Dr Mittleman said in an interview, "the pa tient , turns - the knob that controls the sound of rushing water. "It's an electronic sound that apes the sound of a great waterfall, say Niagara Falls. From what we have learned, this sound appears to lessen the patient's awareness of pain." Migratory Fowl Bill Ruled Out Albany -IUPD- Circuit Judge Victor Olliver late Thursday ruled unconstitutional a mi gratory ... waterfowl hunting bill passed last May in Linn and Benton counties. ' The bill prohibited, duck and goose hunters from hunt ing in an area where four or mqre,,i acres of unharvested crops, were left. The measure also'. ' provided .a penalty of taking away licenses of any persons convicted, which would not allow them to hunt elsewhere in the state: District' Attorney Courtney Johns said he would appeal to the Sate Supreme court. Both counties have a large number of private ponds for duck and goose hunting. Judge Olliver said the bill was unconstitutional, because its effects did not apply spe cifically to Linn county. He also said it was repugnant to the legislative laws of Ore gon pertaining to control of waterfowl hunting. , DEBATE REFUSED Jackson, Miss.- IUPD -Mayor Allen Thompson turned down an invitation Thursday to de bate Negro "sit-in" demon strations with Negro leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The local white citizens coun cil group termed the invita tion "an insult."

Direct Factory Dealer Ill North Central Phone SP 3-7538 It's also figured that the juvenile story or fairy tale coming through the other ear phone helps to distract the child, relaxing him. , . Dr. Mittgelman said the new type analesia - pain-killer -seems to work best with chil dren who are five or order. With younger children there is reluctance to view the ear phones as friendly, helpful de vices and the children some times become alarmed, Effectiveness Varies The dentist said that the ef fectiveness of the auditory analgesia varies from individ ual to individual and that the success to a great extent de pends on how much the pa tient understands what is go ing on. ", . :- "Results' are most gratify ing - when patients are fully aware that ' they . are largely responsible, through their co operation, for successful elim ination of pain," he said. Dr. Mittelman said that the acoustic analgesia helps to solve dental problems en countered when patients can not take the injectable type pain killers. .-'.-. Among such patients are adults and children with car diac conditions and diabetes. "If properly used and de veloped," he said, "acoustic analgesia can lead to more and better dental therapy for patients, as well as add pleas ure to the daily practice of dentistry. '-, "Many children grow up to be dental cripples because they recall only the pain as sociated with dental work. When they become adults, they only go to the dentist's office : when it's an emer gency." . . . The dentist figures that since It's now possible- to make the experience a pleas urable one for many chil dren, the next generation of children will ' have , little chance of becoming dental cowards. . With children who respond to the acoustic analgesia, Dr. Mittelman said it's possible to do practically every kind of procedure including extrac tions. . There's only one problem. "Most children," Dr. Mittel man said "don't ' want to leave the chair until the re cording of a fairy tale has come to its happy ending -even though the dental work is completed." "We have the most trouble with 'Alice in Wonderland'. It's the longest. - DEPENDABILITY SERVICE U UJ - CO Q Z WHEEL BARROWS HAND SAWS AnT' PASSAGE LOCK SETS VINYL FLOOR TILE Aluminum Storm Door withcCr Zonolite Insulation bpar9 4 cu "x4"x8' Sanded Plywood ; W'xIW Sanded Plywood 1x6 & 2x4 Economy Fir CHECK COPELAND'S CREDIT PLANS Reg Price '.
