Can 't Please Everyone Earl Miller, Chester Wendt and Ralph James, individually, are as pleasant, friendly and-generally competent men as you are likely to meet. iney are nice guys all of them. But put them all together in the same room hang an official sign saying "county court" on tne door, and these pleasant, self-assured, com petent men go all to pieces. - And they seem to think that a multi-million dollar business such as Jackson county should be operated on the principle of havimr its main administrative agency succumb to the greatest applied pressures not on wnat tney, as re spunsiuie omciais, minK oesc ior everyone . THE SAD sight of watching their backing and filling, their "consulting" with this and that group, their teeling of the public pulse, their in decision and fearfulness in connection with the appointment of a new state senator, was enough to mane a strong man cry. , The same sort of procedure has been notice able in their consideration of planning and zoning matters, in recreational deve ooment. and in many other instances where a firm stand, based on tneir own knowledge and intelligence, and a ieeimg ior tne puoiic weitare, would have gain eu mem universal respect, it not agreement AND their recent performance reminds us a Htfla nf fVio fokl U..

A member of the board of directors of the Medford Chamber of Commerce telephoned us the other day, after reading a column written bv Edd Rountree in the Ashland Tidings. Rountree was fulminatintr against plans to seek support for a new stadium in Medford. Our .director friend commented somewhat as follows;' "On our agenda this week we have two requests for support. One is for the proposed ski area on Mt. Ashland. The other Is from the Oregon Shakespearean Festival association. ' " . ' "We have supported Ashland projects In the past, and probably will continue to do so in the future. "But It sure makes it tough to do so when that V editor keeps trying to stir up trouble between the two cities. Wonder why he does?" ; Good question. E.A. . A Matter of Taste, Mostly ' There is a larce nativity scene, nsintr nlasfar figures, in place on the Mall of the State Capitol. , One group, the American Civil Liberties Un ion,. has objected to the use of state property for the display of a religious scene. We can't entirely go along with the ACLU, believing that the story of Christmas is' a uni versal one, appreciated by believer and non-be- uever aiine (aitnough tor cliiierent reasons), and that the use of the property, at no cost to the state, is not a substantial violation of the consti tutional separation of church and state. but we do iind it possible to understand, though not fully agree with, the ACLU's stand. THERE are many Americans. who are not Chris Huno Tim., U T,,, HI1 1 v.c.io. uicj uiujr ue acwa, luuiiamilieuiwis, 01 Buddhists, or aetheists, or agnostics. 10 tnem citizens and taxpayers like every one else the use of state property for a Christian religious display may be distasteful. It is the rights of these minorities which the the ACLU seeks to defend. We wish they had reserved their protests for a more substantial matter than a few plaster figures, which at best give pleasure, to some, and at worst are in ques- uunuDie taste, to otners. u.A. Caveat Emptor- What? A few years arro. the compact ears arriv'prl hn the American scene. Among other things, they iihu piain, simple, nat wincisnieids, much cheaper than the bitr curved wrap-arounds of the hio- pars. Because of this (and other factors) insurance premiums dropped, some of them by 10 per cent. So now what happens? Now the compact cars are starting to put "tempered" class in the win dows, instead of the shatter-proof variety. This constitutes an added hazard, and as a result medical and liability premiums are being reconsidered, and may increase almost enoutrh to offset the savings obtained by the simpler wind shields. 'WfELL, we don't blame the compact car peo " pie for trvintr to cut cost corners i although they should, we think, point out such changes to potential customers). Nor do we blame the insurance companies for boosting their premiums to coyer added antici pated costs. 1 hey re not in business for their health. So about the only point that remains to be made is that the old Latin motto, "Caveat Emp tor" let the buyer beware applies as much now at it ever did. But today it's sometimes harder to know what to beware of. E.A. Dennis the Menace 'NA3.NAG.NAS. lSURB FEEL 'TOR AIWU.'

To the Editor: I, like many other Oregonians, have been sitting back and watching the obvious split in the Democrat- c party in Oregon initiated by the ultra-liberal segment of the party fronted by State Democratic Chairman Robert Straub. Straub has attempted to create the impression that his group represents a vast ma- ority of the Democratic party. In trying to axe the election of Democrat Senator Harry Boivin as president of the Sen ate he has been doing his ut most to create this impression. What Straub and his ultra- liberals do not want, is for the public to realize that even though the Democrats control 20 of the 30 scats in the new State Senate, Alfred Corbctt, the candidate the left-wing of the party proposes, has only 1 supporters among the 30. Knowing this, Straub has at tempted to exploit the point that supposedly 11 Democrat senators favor Corbett to S who favor Boivin. , The real reason he is against Senator Boivin is the fact that the Republican members of Ihe Senate have pledged to vote for Boivin as Senate president. Straub, therefore, is appealing for party discipline as against the public interest and the actual majority of the Senate. What Straub really is pro posing is that a minority group of the Oregon Senate (11 Democrats) elect the new Senate president over the de sire of the majority of the Senate (19 Democrats and Re publicans). Straub may con sider himself the leader of the Democratic party machinery in Oregon, but what he pro poses is not very democratic and I doubt that a majority of the Democrats In Oregon subscribe to this theory of power politics proposed by the left-wing of their party. To be specific, Straub is just the front man for the real ultra liberals, Alf Corbelt, Monroe Sweetland and Vern Cook. It should also be noted that Straub, already critical of Governor Hatfield's proposed budget for the next biennium, would like nothing more than to maneuver an ultra-liberal in as Senate president so that the free-spending liberals could harass the Governor's program for the next two years. Yet little more than a month ago the voters of Ore gon, both Democrats and Re publicans, endorsed over whelmingly Governor Hat field's two appointees, Secre tary of State Howell Appling and State Treasurer Howard Bellon who both ran on a' rec ord of fiscal responsibility. It's apparent then, that the will of the majority or the interests of Ihe people are at least sec ond best to Mr. Straub's politi cal power thinking. Wilbur Bishop 10500 S.W. Cook lane Tignrd, Ore. Must Continue To the Editor: After reading the editorial, "More Than One Danger," and a letter, "The Enemy Within," by Bettv House, on the same page of Tuesday's paper, I attended the showing of the film "Ope ration Abolition" at the Med ford High school in order to see what all the fuss was about. After the show I re read the editorial and letter. Frankly I'm kinda confused. I can go along with most of what you wrote and with near ly all of Betty's letter, but where in the, film or in the part not shown is the distor tion of facts and the lying propaganda? I gathered, from the film, that Its purpose was to show how communists were able to direct the "expression of the rebellious students" and the like in such a manner as to disrupt completely the law ful operations of the HUAC. If what was shown is democ racy in action I'm glad that we are a Republic nation. I see no reason, although some was indicated, for the film to have documented the fact that opposition ' to the committees' lawful investiga tions by other than commies and students were in evidence t that particular meeting when enemies of the HUAC have never ceased in their ef forts to have the committee done away with since its in ception in 1937. At most public meetings and approprition time when its budget is being voted on, the attacks come to break up the meetings or the commit tee. The attackers? Way-out left wingers, fellow travelers, the Roosevelt clan, subversive organiations, liberal papers ana magazines and people who have been convinced by the above that the committee is a bad deal. And one more group, people such as E.A.. Betty House and at times, me. Seems as though 'we wonder about some of the methods used, in the past, to Bet results and enhance the power of the committee and some of its in dividual members. The committee's nresent method of operation is much more democratic than in the past and should not be ham pered by mistakes of individ uals who are no longer with it. Regardless of who was in volved, demonstrations of the kind shown in the film cannot be condoned bv anv innri American. The HUAC must continue its lawful activities in order that we are not "cov ered over" by the people who are most concerned v with its abolition. William Doernbach 143 Mace rd. Medford. Go Slow To the Editor: I have sent the following letter to Gov ernor Hatfield, with copies to omer state officials and news papers: Dear Governor: The press reports the state land board is negotiating with the Shell Oil company a pro posal to grant that company an exclusive lease to the oil rights on all of Oregon's off- snore lands extending the full lengtn of the coast and total ing some 600,000 acres. Needless to say. these lands. probably the last of Oregon's original vast endowment of natural resources, should not be squandered, as happened in the past to parts of our wealth too precipitately dis posed of. Certainly, with the world's present enormous pe- iroieum production so badly out of balance with demand, probably more so than at any lime during the last 20 years; with potential producing areas, both proven and pros pective, greater than at any recent time: and with the use of oil for conventional power soon to be greatly restricted by the increasing availability of atomic fuel, it Is not the opportune time to put these lands on the block. When the proper time does come for their exploitation. such a huge area should not be leased on any blanket basis. but should be split up into parcels to permit of bidding by as many as may be inter ested. Under the carefully. worked out plan followed by both Alberta and British Co lumbia, bidders have been amply protected for their fi nancial risks of development without aacrific of the public interest. Any oil leases made by Oregon should follow the same plan which has been so successful and profitable to those two provinces. A nego tiated lease, particularly a blanket one covering the area of a principality, cannot be expected to have equally good results. We do not know if anything of a dubious nature has trans pired but the proposed deal is much too large and impor tant to the people of this state to be handled in any such off hand manner as this appears to have been. No one knows or has any conception of what possibly enormous values may be involved. They could be stupendous, and the lands should not be encumbered at this time in any manner at all. Nothing should be done until the matter, has been thorough ly thrashed out and the pub lic made fully conversant with all angles. ; Buell C, Nelson 304 Pearson Bldg. Portland 4, Ore. Not a Wast To the Editor: By no stretch of the imagination could I consider money raised for a Pearl Harbor Memorial a waste. . Of course money is needed for medical research and it is collected by many founda tions, but that has nothing to do with the fact that a thous and men were buried with nothing to mark their inter ment but a flag on a wooden platform. Am I correct, Mrs. Fitzsim- mons, in surmising that your last will and testament does now or will read, "All my money is to be given to medi cal research, throw my body in the nearest hole. Please omit casket, marker and flow ers?" I'm not saying this may not be a good idea for people, and a noble gesture, but it happens in our civilization people prefer to leave some indication that they once lived and were loved.

I admirer of Fidel Castro. 130-Y.ar-Old Fight ; Ecuador's largest labor un- Its present quarrel, in real ity, is with Peru and dates back 130 years. It is over a huge, triangular territory larger than Ger many, Switzerland and Italy combined east of the Andes on the headwaters of the Amazon River. Its inhabitants almost exclusively arc wild Indian tribes. The two nations fought over the territory almost from the moment Ecuador was pro claimed a republic in 1830. The dispute finally appeared settled in 1942 when both na tions signed a treaty in favor of Peru. Guaranteeing the treaty were the United States, Argentina, Brazil and Chile. On Sept. 1, President Maria Velasco Ibarra announced in his inaugural address that Ec uador would no longer recog nize the 1942 treaty. Illiteracy and Poverty The stirrings of discontent across- the whole of Latin America have not skipped Ec uador. And in Ecuador the same basic elements are pres ent, illiteracy and poverty. As elsewhere, there also are the added elements of Castro ism and the new interest of Moscow and Peiping. The head of , Ecuador's chamber of deputies was an ardent campaigner for Vel asco and also is an outspoken Mr. Jigqs Is Dead To the Editor: To those of you who knew him, Mr. Jiggs is aead. On Dec. 2 our Boston Bull puppy wandered onto South Stage rd. some time between 8:30 and 7:15 a.m. The pave ment was damp but no skid marks were in evidence to show the driver might have even attempted to stop. The puppy was not run over, just struck and knocked out. We know the driver would have been perhaps 5 minutes late arriving some where had he stopped to bring the pup in, or even to advise us what had happsned. The puppy should not have been there, so the driver could not have been held liable for the hit. However, from the evi dence we believe he is re sponsible for the animal's death because of his neglect in stopping. When we did find the puppy there was still a flicker of life, but his lying on tne cold pavement for ap proximately half an hour In an unconscious condition made us too late. The real question raised is: So long as he could keep go ing, would that driver -have stopped no matter what he hit? Tony Glidden, 243 South Stag rd., Medford returning to a more reason able position. The very first outspoken opinion on this, the critically tensioned racial' is sue, this writer has found, is in the U.S. News and World Report, Dec. 19, page 1 col. 1, where Washington State Su preme Court Judge Joseph A. Mallery assailed what he call ed a Negro "crusade" for "compulsory togetherness" of races. The iudee said the Neero race, led by the National As sociation for the Advancement of Colored People, seeks to deprive white people of their right to choose their associates in private life.", . This good news is hope sus taining for me. For it has been my carefully studied belief, often expressed, including letters-to-the-editor, that such court judge opinion would eventually be announced, rivi eted down as it was by the log-cabin logic of Abe Lin coln, who reminded us that all the people cannot be fool ed all the time. Also hope sustaining is the reporting by Carlton F. Wil son in the Mail Tribune Dec. 12, the women fighting to hold the segregation at schools in New Orleans are described by policemen controlling them as the Cheer Leaders . Re porter Wilson continues, re ferring to a Mrs. Andrews with four grown children and six school-age grandchildren, who said, "We are going to win-we've got to. "Thank God we have a governor who is sticking with us . . . She attends a Roman Catholic church, but said, "I don't put a nickel in the box. She op poses church efforts for de segregation. Mrs. Vesta Alex ander, with daughter and granddaughter, said, "We are not getting equal rights." Said Miss Betty J. Clement, Mixing is definitely wrong. Negro schools are newer and prettier than the ones for white students and the (Negro students) will take over all the schools if we integrate." She opposes interracial marriages. All of which proves, as ad vancing science reveals, that the female is more funda mental, more primordial en during than the "Johnny- come-lately" male. For, as all can see, it is the white moth ers of the South leading the fight in the protection of their daughters to continue the race as a white race, even if they may not see it in its age old urge. F. J. Clifford, Route 2, Box 200F, . Central Point, Ore. ion, the Confederation of Ec uadorean Workers, is Communist-influenced if not Commu nist-controlled. Velasco was not the first to voice Ecuador's simmering discontent. In 1955, Ecuador accused Peru of massing 30,000 troops for invasion of Ecuador's fron tier. In 1959, she accused Peru of exaggerated rearming. The charges were not borne out but they were indicative of things to come. In the past four years, Ecua dor has been the recipient of U. S. or World Bank loans to taling around $50 million, but Velasco frequently has been harshly critical of U. S. Latin American aid policies. Last week, t h e United States joined with Argentina, Brazil and Chile against Ec uador's renewed demands for the disputed territory and an outlet to the Atlantic via the Amazon, " Then Velasco turned this mobs loose against the United States and, a la Castro, his foreign .minister announced that if necessary: "We will ally ourselves with Russia." Matter of Fact ai,0I ON FOLLY Alulers In this tragic city like a giant hornets' nest that has been poked by a fool, one is driven to reflect on the powers of un- ro, enn In thf ?Sf f i affairs of men, -" i.-lfl Mpn and wom en have died here, and sole- -1 ly because so many people have been an- Aisop ', grily biting off their noses to spite their faces. As these words are written, it is not clear Whether the end of the tragedy Is in sight, this reporter believes, oi whether -many more have yet to die. Enough has happened in any case, to make one wish to join the rather special po- licital party of the heroine of the Greek wartime resistance who once announced she was an "extreme centrist." On be ing asked what this meant she replied crisply, with an air of stern purpose: The extreme centrists are the sensible people like me who would like to - shoot everyone on the extreme right and extreme left. IT1HE trouble in Algiers be- gan with the youna fools who were sent to shout their heads off on the Rue Michelet by the older fools of the Front of Algerie Francaise. The idea and what an idea! was either to undermine the French army's loyalty or to intimidate Gen. de . Gaulle himself. The effect was to re duce, quite measurably, the chance that the French people in Algeria will be able to play their ' necessary role in this unhappy country's future. The silly shouting on the Rue Michelet, led by imper ceptible stages to sporadic conflict between the French and Moslem communities. The Moslem hotheads, whose peo ple have everything to gain by calm, began their own bout of shouting and flag waving. Many died. And a yet deeper gulf was opened between the two communities, which must somehow manage to work to gether if the Algeria of the future is to work at all. It is not especially consol ing that the vast majorities of both communities have quite .visibly regarded the whole business as a night mare.' In no group, it seems are the members of the great, relatively reasonable mass willing to make the efforts to control "their own s. o. b.'s in the old, coarse but accurate phrase. . FIOR consolation, in fact, one can only recall vignettes of recent days, which prove that the folly of the mass does not always infect all the in dividuals in the mass. In their excited voices, one caught a glimmer of hope for Gen. de Gaulle's great bet on eventual peaces in Algeria. In the little policeman in the Clos de Salembier this morn ing, one caught a glimmer of hope for the human race. This is a poor quarter, where there had been communal conflict ending in the flight of the Europeans the night before. Truckloads of French para troopers, just about the finest troops in the Western world but not the most polished politicians, were going into the Clos de Salembier to as sure order about 9:30 a.m. Other troops of the normal security forces were there al ready. Everything was quiet enough, except for an oc casional ten-year old whs shouted a Moslem slogan. . Most of the people in Ihg Clos de Salembier live In the bleak but decent new housing which has been constructed in Algiers in recent years for the poor. But there is also a hide ous, surviving hut settlement. From this sordid warren, as the paratroopers arrived, there shot out a wild-eyed young harpy of about 20. , u . SHE was all but frothing a the mouth with longing to start trouble and she had .the means to start trouble In her hand, in the form of a large F. L. N. flag. There was a frozen moment, while she screamed and waved her flag, and the paratroopers gaped in anger and astonshf. ment. Then the paratroopers, who do not easily tolerate the sight of the flag they are or. dered to fight against, moved forward to seize the few yards of bunting from the young woman's hands. A crowd col lected. An ugly growling start ed. Several of the young para troopers began fingering their weapon;. , But now, apparently spring ing from the ground, there ap peared the tubby, middle aged little policeman of the quarter. With a furious be low, he caused the harpy to disappear.' With another furi ous bellow, he made the crowd begin to scatter. And then he turned on the soldiersi who were naturally thinking of patrolling the warren of shacks, with a final bellow of comical but effective indigna tion: . .-. "I'm in charge here. Order here is my responsibility. While I can assure order, you gentlemen had better keen out!" "I THE paratroopers, grinning chr.Ar,icl-,1, i-nHt-arl ami AV. der was indeed restored by the little policeman-which would not have been the result if- a military patrol has further in flamed the emotions of the moment. One is inclined to think of Gen. de Gaulle as the heroie version of the common sensi ble policeman of the Clos d Salembier. During the rioting; a small French shopkeeper. one of those who really be1 lieve their way of life is com ing to an end, said to me al most tearfully, "There was only one man with bronze guts (he used a less polite word unsuitable for family newspapers and. by God, Old Bronze Guts de Gaulle is on the other side." But if there is any good of even bearable outcome In Al geria, it will be because of those guts of bronze. - -. (e) I960 New York Herald Tribune Inc.
