Quesada's General Elwood Quesada, administrator of the Federal Aviation Agency who will be leaving ornce next week, has had a tough job to do. He was the first head created from the Civil tion, given added authority, and charged with the immense task of supervising all civil aviation. in all phases, plus considerable control of military aircratt using the airlanes. The job is tremendous, because of the in creased number of planes in the air, because of the advent or near-sonic quantum jump in air travel brought about by big ger transport planes, and because of all the secon dary problems brought ones. f IVEN a job of this magnitude, it is inevitable -that Quesada would step on toes and make enemies, rle has certainly done so. In the current issue of Harper's magazine he states his own case, sort of a swart song for the job he will soon leave. He sets forth his position vigorously, intelli gently, and without mincing words or sparing those he criticizes. It is his stewardship, a slashing; attack aerainst some of his organized opposition, and a clear statement of the necessity of making safety one of the para mount considerations in the administration of the airlanes. THE article was written before the crash of a 'jet airliner with a propeller-driven airliner over New York, with a Since that event Quesada has come under re newed criticism, and it concerning air safety ring larly in view ot the fact that his own agency has yet to be cleared of at least a portion of the blame tor the crash. Thus Quesada will something of a cloud, which is too bad for a man who obviously is a dedicated public servant. But that "too bad" pales measured against the heart - rending tragedy which brought the commercial aviation death-toll during 1960 to its highest point. CEN. Clair Engle of California, a pilot himself, has long been critical of Quesada and some of his rulings. (Many of them, incidentally, are argu able whether a tlat retirement age should be enforced, whether medical examinations should be permitted only by certain physicians, and so on. There are legitimate arguments on both sides.) However. Encrle's criticisms this time are not addressed to these arguable matters, but more closely to the heart of the matter the organiza tion, efficiency, responsiveness and effectiveness of the'FAA itself. In a recent letter to the Washington (D.C.) Post, he said : "... The conduct of three separate groups In con nection with this accident will be under careful scru tiny - the crew of the TWA Constellation, the crew of the United Airlines jet, and FAA's ground control. Each had a responsibility. "General Quesada says that his ground radio and radar equipment was functioning properly. This it a self-serving statement. The decision as to whether or not it was functioning properly will be made by the Civil Aeronautics Board which has the responsi bility of reporting formally on the accident. General Quesada said the United Airlines plane was 11 miles off course. Evidently it was. But why? These ex perienced and professional pilots are not trying to commit suicide. "Certainly we do not provide radar surveillance for the sole purpose of giving the radar controllers a ringside seat on mid-air collisions. Why would the radar controllers sit and watch two blips in their screen move on a collision course without doing something about It? If everyone is where he is sup posed to be, we don't need radar equipment. Thii expensive installation is provided to give positive control and radar surveillance when things aren't going right. "This is the first accident that has occurred where positive control was supposed to be exercised at all times and all aircraft in the area were supposed to be under radar surveillance. General Quesada's FAA will have to explain why the system they set up permllled this kind of collision to occur. General Quesada is not prosecutor, Judge and Jury In this matter - and he should not be sounding off to the public as If he is." WE ARE inclined Rnn-ln'c rnrnnrVc But we also feel that almost-impossible task when he took over the FAA and not solely because of the problems involved in air traffic control and safety. We declared at the time that one of his maior difficulties would be the second-level bureaucrats inherited by the FAA from the CAA the men below the policy-making level and above the operational level who have a vested interest in the status quo, so long as their own little empires continue to grow. This level of government is the one which keeps the wheels of government turnintr. if it is composed of alert, dedicated, progressive public servants, it is also uie heels if it thinks it is being threatened. JUDGING by the record of the FAA, (including the burgeoning of offices, and bureaus, and rules and regulations which have only the most tenuous connection with air traffic safety), the latter is what has happened in the FAA under the administration of General Quesada. He may be right in banging the heads of tlie Air Line Pilots Association and the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association, as obstructionists. But the sort of thing Senator Engle is talking about is evidence that he could well have spent some time profitably banging hlads in his own agency. E.A.

Busts and Benches To the Editor: It has been reported to me by one of our short-wave radio enthusiasts that a broadcast, purportedly to have originated in Grants Pass, was heard at noon on Friday, Jan. 6, to-wit or words to this effect: There is a per son, sex unknown (to me, that is) which says that he, she or it will furnish, tree of charge to the poor town of Medford a bench for the poor people of Medford to sit on while awaiting a bus, at every one of the bus stations throughout the antiquated bus system. Not only will this 'thing' furnish and deliver the benches, but will paint and keep them in good repair. Maybe it may also be pre vailed upon to put one down near that 'den of iniquity', where the old veterans are forced to await the limited (limited to three or four a day) to the Domiciliary. The action by your eity council puzzles me. At White City one gets tour months re' striction for minor infractions of rules. But, for downright breaking of regulations, they get what we call "The Gate", or out for six months. Your brave council put both limou sine companies on six months probation. They should have let Mrs. Mary Jones and Mrs. Ruby Rogers, the two ladies who have so bravely voiced their complaint in your communi cations columns about no benches, sit as judges in this case. My respect and moral support to them. Malemute Slim White City, Ore. Pachydermia To the Editor: The Pachyderm Is dressed in skin That overflows by yards.

Stop Mo .i CERF- of wheat" 'Alice in Wonderland' tewstoCto Still Creates Worldwide Propaganda Stir By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign Newt Analyst "Alice in Wonderland," U.S. Ambassador James J. Wads worth said of Fidel Castro's charge that the United States plans to invade Cuba. A dec a d e e a r 1 i e r, his predeces s o r, A m b assador Warren R. Austin, used (8 Nawsom even less nice ty to denounce a Soviet propaganda attack in the United Nations. "The big lie" is what Austin called it. While the world shrinks al most daily with new com munications developments to ascertain the truth, diplomacy of the big lie and the uncheck ed charge expands in usage. It is generally agreed at the United Nations that Castro fabricated his U.S. invasion charge as a cheap, flag-waving stunt designed to unite the Cuban people, who show in creasing signs of bemusement and bewilderment. Worldwide Propaganda But for two weeks - this is the third time it has been done - the big lie has been drum med into headlines around the world, Inflaming anti American opinion where there is a field for such in cendiarism. Nothing really has been done about it. The United States formally and vigorously denied it had sent a letter to Latin Ameri can countries openly advertis ing an intention to invade Cuba. The idea patently was ridiculous. Even had there been such an intention, the last thing would have been to announce it in advance. Cuban Foreign Minister Raul Roa took up two days of the Security Council's time to throw the diplomatic kitchen sink at Washington. He final ly admitted all he knew about the alleged letter on which the Cuban charge was In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS From Washington: A nation once torn asunder by a civil war opened the 100th anniversary of that tragic era Sunday with solemn pageantry and prayer. One theme was dominant in these opening ceremonies of our Civil War Centennial: Our nation has been able to REUNITE itself after the war. A SOLEMN thought: fa. Suppose our nation HAD N'T been able to unite itself sfter these four years of bloody war. In that event, this nation of ours wouldn't now be the UNITED States of America, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. At the very least, it would be TWO nations. It is highly probable that if our nation HADN'T been able to reunite itself after the Civil War the area that is now the United Stales of America would be broken up Into an unpredict able number of small nations. somewhat com parable to Europe. We sometimes think that things are In a mess. But WHAT A MESS it would have been if that had happened. WHY Sunday, January 8, as the opening date of our Civil War Centennial, when the actual shooting start of the war didn't come until three months later, when Con federate troops shelled Fort Sumter in the harbor of Charleston, South Carolina? The answer is that Presi dent Eisenhower chose the Star of the West incident as the date for the opening of the Centennial. The Star of the West was a Union supply ship en route to Fort Sumter with supplies designed to strengthen the federal forces there. It was fired on bv South Carolina cadets and turned around and returned to its base in the north. At the time of the Star of Ihe West incident. South Caro lina was alone in secession. It had taken the bull by the horns, had withdrawn from the Union and had set Itself up as an Independent republic. Its ordinance of secession was adopted on December 20, 1880. The shelling of Fort Sumter started on April 12, 1861. ITOW did it all happen? "The answer In tragically simple. THE HOTHEADS TOOK CONTROL. IHK lesson of it all?

Quite rightly, the Security Council refused to act. Soviet Ambassador Valerian A. Zorin gave a new twist to the big lie diplomatic tech nique. All right, he said in effect, the United States says it has no intention to invade Cuba. Let them prove it. Were Advance Reports of Red Leanings By LYLE C. WILSON Washington - (UPI) - Sen. George A. Smathers (D-Fla.) demands a house-cleaning and fumigation of the State de perament but opposes a con gressional in vestigation to illuminate the facts in the case. That would be unfair to Wilson the stockhold ers in the Department of State, who can be identified in gen eral as the tax paying citizens At 40 West Finds, Ambitions Die, Life Doesn't Really Begin By DICK WEST Washington - (UPI) - Away back there when I could still observe a birthday without getting the cold sweats, some clown wrote a book alleging that life begins at 40. Well, sir, I recently at tained the age of nativity al- 1 u d e d to in this volume and I am think ing now of suing the author for breach of promise. I have heated the water and called in a midwife, but so far nothing has happened in the way of a renaissance. I don't feel any better than I did at 39. In fact, I don't feel anything. I am just sort of numbed by the thought that all those things I had planned to do by this time haven't been done. Dun, Bradsfreet Book Lists 825 Medford Firms There are a total of 825 business in Medford according to statistics released by J. Harry White, district manager of the Portland office of Dun and Bradstreet Inc. This total is based on a physical count of the January, 1961, edition of the Dun and Bradstreet Reference book. The book also lists the num ber of business firms in other communities of Jackson coun ty. In addition to Medford, Ashland has 182, Central Point 65, and Rogue River 38 businesses. The Reference book lists those manufacturers, whole salers, and retailers who seek or grant commercial credit, but it does not include some of the service and professional businesses such as beauty shops, security dealers and real estate brokers. Therefore, the figures for total business would be higher than quoted above. According to While, each January business concerns in all parts of the United States are asked by Dun and Brand street for copies of their fi nancial statements. This year requests are being sent to ap proximately three million con cerns. When the owner or officer of a business enterprise, or his accountant, fills in and mails his financial statement to Dun and Bradstreet, it becomes a part of the credit report on his business and a factor in determining the credit rating of his business. Corinne Griffith Asks Kennedy To Join Drive Hollywood - H!PP - Corrine Griffith, former actress now a wealthy real estate operator, sent a telegram Tuesday to President-elect John F. Ken nedy asking him to join her campaign against income taxes. Miss Griffith, longtime foe of the yearly taxes and hon- orary president of the "Plan to Abolish Individual Feders$ Income Tax," said in her tele gram that she felt Kennedy recognized excessive 1 n d 1 vldual taxation a? a majg cause of "the (trowing reces sion and increasing unemploy ment." Q O . He did not say how tke United States cojild prove it did not intend to invade. Cea trarily, it could prove an in tention to stage aa invaeiea by doing so. Roa made wide -swinging charges about alleged invasion bases in Florida and Guate mala. The United Nations has the power to investigate such by Castro Given? of the United States. More over, it could be unfair to all or to many of the officials of the department. What Smathers proposed was that the department be swept clean from top to bot tom of all officials who used bad judgment in making pol icies which determined U. S. relations with Fidel Castro's Cuba. As the Truman administra tion was accused of losing China, so the Eisenhower ad ministration now is accused of losing Cuba. Smathers should be more specific. For example: any well in- What is worse, I can realize now that I never am going to do them. The hard truth is that what begins at 40 is not life but a molting season during which we shed the aspirations that had been accumulating over the years. This sloughing - off process began for me the moment I passed this milestone. Looking reality squarely in the eye, I accepted for the first time the harsh verdict that I am: (1) Never going to be the captain of a bobsled team, (2) Never going to learn to figure skate, (3) Never going to dance the tango, and (4) Never going to play "In the Hall of the Mountain King" on a flugelhorn. These are ambitions that I had carried with me since childhood, but, for various reasons, didn't get around to fulfilling. Numbers (1) and (2) came about as a result of watching news reels. When I was a lad In Texas, which lies in the intemperate zone, no newsreel was per mitted in the theater unless it had a shot of a bobsled team and of a couple figure skating. I resolved then and there that I would one day move to a wintry climate and experi ence these thrills, but only the first part came to pass. Now my only ambition is to move back where it's warm. I also acquired ambition number (3) at the movies, dur ing a Fred Astaire picture. I saw this same picture on tele vision the other night and that quenched the fire. I wouldn't attempt a tango now even if Ginger Rogers offered me free lessons. As for ambition number (4), I can't recall when It came upon me and I wasn't aware of its passing. I just know that the musical world has lost a potential flugelhorn player. It is not that I think I am too old to do these things. It's just that the shock of reaching 40 has undermined the desire. Even if I memorized tha collected works of Norman Vincent Peale, I couldn't think positively about it. Fellowship Winner Faces Prison Term Redwood City, Calif. (WD Mitchell Strucinskl. who won a Stanford university fellow ship while serving his seventh prison term, today faced an eighth trip to the penitentiary. The husky ex-convict was Tuesday sentenced by Super ior Judge J. A. Branson to concurrent terms of one to 15 years after being convicted on two counts for the theft of rare land grant maps from the San Mateo county assessor's office. He was arrested In Novem ber after an estimated $50,000 worth of old volumes on Americana disappeared from the Stanford university li brary, Strucinski was accused of transporting the volumes across the state lines. The Stanford charges wer subse quently dropped when the San Mateo county charges were filed. A probation report stated that the 38-year-old Strucinskl had also stolen valuable docu ments from Monterey, Placer, Santa Cruz. Santa Clara San Francisco, and Nevada coun ties. Strucimgi won his err tjye fellowship to Swiford while-vlng a term Ismail thjnjt and forgery in McNeil Island (Wash.) federal penitentiary. c iw jam. It eetsM seae a i missien for a first-hand loeec ketk here aaa ekread. Bu taat would net have suited Castro's purpose and probably would have brought a Seviet veto. The feeling grews in diple matic ranks that it is not enough to sweep unchecked charges under the carpet. The United Nations should investi gate them. formed U. S. senator should know that U. S. intelligence agents were aware during the three years preceding Castro's entry into Havana that the Beard was likely to be in business with the Russian Communists. Any U. S. senator who ia not so informed, should in form himself. A senator could accomplish that by a couple ot telephone calls, one to FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover, the other to Allen W. Dulles, boss of the' Central Intelligence agency. ' The next step for the U. S. senator would be to learn what the FBI, for example, did with the information it possessed on Castro's fellow traveler background. The in quiring senator would learn, your correspondent believes, that intelligence reports on Castro's Communist sympa thies had been submitted in detail to the White House, the State department and to the Pentagon. The senator with questions! next should seek the answer to this one: "Did policy-making top of ficials at the White House, State department and the Pentagon have full access to all of this intelligence infor mation and-or did they know anything at all about it?" What Happened If the intelligence reports were submitted, but never reached President Eisenhow. er, Secretary of State John Foster Dulles and other top officials, who did finally re ceive them? Why were they diverted from the top men? If they were diverted, then by whom? These are fair questions and they should be answered. The word in Washington is that intelligence reports on Cas tro's Communist orientation were submitted regularly for the information of administra tion policy makers. There is some evidence that they never reached the top where the decision was made upon Castro's capture of Ha vana to recognize the revolu tion immediately.
