Risk vs.
Sir Charles P. Snow,
novelist, scientist and
ficial, spoke beiore the
the Advancement of Science not long ago.
Among other things,
tives lacing the world m.the armaments field, and
said, in part:
"All physical scientists KNOW that it is relatively
easy to make plutonium . . . We can work out the
number of scientific and engineering personnel needed
,. for a nation-state to equip itself with fission and
fusion bombs.
"We KNOW that for a dozen or more states It will
' only take perhaps six years, perhaps less . . . We know,
with the certainty of statistical truth, that if enough
of these weapons are made by enough different states
some of them are going to blow up. Through acci
dent, or folly or madness but the motives don't mat
ter. What does matter is the nature of the statistical
fact . . .
"On the one side, therefore, we have a finite risk.
On the other side we have a certainty of disaster.
CIR CHARLES spells out coldly the brutal facts
which are of such great concern to the think
ing, informed people of
Disarmament, or at
arms control, are essential to our survivial.
The big sticker, of
fact that it has been proven, over and over again,
that it is impossible to trust the word ot the Com
munist leaders, specifically those now in the
Kremlin, and, perhaps
the long run, the inscrutable and largely unknown
leaders in Peiping.
BUT a start has been made, and President. Ken

The test ban talks at
ferences on the ticklish problem of armament con
trols at other levels, are a start, and, God willing,
will be pursued.
They must be.
For, in Sir Charles' words :
"Between a risk and a certainty, a sane man
does not hesitate." E.A.
Capitol
Gov. Mark Hatfield has proposed that a new
forestry department building be built in Salem,
right on the Capitol Mall that splendid and
growing government area surrounded by hand
some white government buildings, with the Cap
itol at the south end.
He suggests that it be made of wood from
Oregon's forests, and that it incorporate all the
latest in wood technology and- architectural
beauty in short, that it be made a real "show
place for the forest products industry.
We agree most heartily with the idea of such
a forestry building. But we question whether the
Mall would be just the place for it.
IT MIGHT be that such a structure could be
situated in the Capitol group area so that it
would blend in with the surrounding buildings,
but we don't quite see how.
The Mall now constitutes what' is probably
the most beautiful assemblage :of governmental
buildings of any state in the union. Whether a
wooden building, no matter how magnificent,
would be suitable in an area now dominated by
white marble and gleaming glass remains to be
answered. .
. We'd like to hear what the Capitol Planning
Commission, which has been largely responsible
for the orderly, attractive development of the
Mall, has to say. E.A.
The Nose
Let us, for a moment, consider the sense of
smell.
The Women's Editor marched up to a fellow
staff member the other day, thrust a- bunch of
violets under his nose, and declared, "My violets
smell better than your cigar." "That depends on
whose nose you're talking about," was the reply.
The sense of smell in man, while not as fully
developed nor as acute as that in many animals,
still performs a useful function. How else would
one know, for instance, that milk had gone sour,
or that there was a leak in a gas line?
RUT, more than that, the sense of smell has a
potent esthetic value.
Maybe it doesn't have any utility, or survival
value, but the smell of violets (OR a good cigar)
is rapture-producing. 1
And what about that indefinable smell which
heralds the approach of spring that vague hint
in the air, so subtle yet so definite that one knows
without any further assurances that spring is
coming?
The smell of fresh, strong coffee perking in
the morning (preferable
doors) cannot be matched.
THERE are other smells that can evoke strong
emotion, or nostalgia, or just sheer pleasure.
The smell of a Douglas fir forest under a hot
summer sun; the smell of a yellowed gardenia
in a girl's memory scrapbook; the smell of the
far-away ocean as one drives toward it: even the
yeasty smell of the mud-flats at low tide; the
strong, masculine smell when athletes come into
their dressing room after a game; the rich, pun
gent smell of freshly milled pine lumber.
We'd be tempted to say that smell is more
important than taste that is, until we start re
membering the taste of a rare steak, or an an
chovy fillet, or . . twhy ep on? Enjoy iL BkA.

Likes New Station
To the Editor: I would like
to say how much I really ap
preciate the new Christian
radio station that we have in
the valley, and I thank God
for this ministry.
I have heard much com
ment among the saints from
various denominations and
non-denominational churches
expressing their deep appreci
ation to our Heavenly Father
for ordaining the ministry of
this radio station. It is so nice
to turn on the radio and tune
in the good gospel music and
the good solid Bible teaching
that is brought forth to us,
telling us the good news of
Salvation in our Lord and
Savior, Jesus Christ. Already
it is known that many souls
have been won to the Lord
Jesus through the preaching
of the Gospel in word and
song on this Christian radio
station. ,

Power & Light Co. stock for
Copco's.

Copco now has the best of

appears that Copco can pro

This valley is a potential
producer of power and will
become much more populated
with manufacturers and also
retired people.
If the exchange is made,
there will be some families re
quired to quit their jobs or
move to Portland.
As a small owner of Copco

Washington Report
By WILLIAM
TEAMWORK
Washington -. Vice Presi
dent Lyndon B. Johnson is
carrying on wide and willing
shoulders
weights of
two wholly
differe nt
kinds which
require the
most delicate
sense of bal
ance. He is deter
mined to do
his utmost to
White
support the policies and pur
poses - and person - of his
chief, President John F. Ken
nedy. To those who know him
well there can be no possible
doubt of the total dedication
the Texan is putting into this
project.
At the same time, he is
taking endless pains to avoid
any suggestion of a suspicion
that in these efforts - which
at times unavoidably will
cause him to take fairly prom
inent public positions - he is
attempting in any way to cast
a shadow as long, or even
nearly as long, as that of the
President.
HO MAKE it abundantly
clear to his own closest
associates that he means only
to serve - and never to rival
the President, Mr. Johnson
has specifically instructed his
staff on this point: his role is
always to be that of an
understudy to the President."
He has pointed out to his
people that though he and the
President were In great rival
ry only last summer for the
presidential nomination itself,
this was only an episode of
the past having no meaning
now.
They have been told with
great force that JFK and
LBJ are now wholly together,
in purpose and in the human
sense, as actually nearly all
during their earlier careers
they had been essentially to
gether in their views of gov
ernment's proper role.
(Mr. Johnson is not now
nd never was more "con
servative" than the President,
except possibly on a single
issue - Civil Rights. There
his southern geography in
evitably clashed with the
northern geography of Mr.
Kennedy.)
fTHE Vice President was once
much Mr. Kennedy's sen
ior, as Democratic Senate
leader while the President
was a rather junior member
there. Now he is making it
crystal clear tht he is definite
ly the President's lunior fcnd
ness. Some, politicians are
dirty and they play dirty poli
tics, but that is not a good
premise from which to launch
an argument that the art of
politics is unclean.
Did a Good Job
Goldberg visited the unem
ployed areas in part to learn
about the situation and in part
to convince the jobless that
the Kennedy administration
was their friend. Goldberg
seems to have done a pretty
good job of doing just that.
What the Republicans
should have been alert to dis
cover is an answer to this
question: Does the adminis
tration tell the same story to,
for example, the fat cats of
industry as it does to the thin
jobless cats? ,
Elements
Prpblems
By PHIL NEWSOM
UPI Foreign News Analyst
Kingston, Jamaica - (UPD
From Kingston, Jamaica's
capital and industrial hub, to
Montego Bay, where vacation-
ing Americans
escape the
rigors of win
ter on white
beaches and in
luxury hotels,
it is 120 miles.
In those 120
miles, and at
either end,
are the ele
ments which
epitomize Jamaica's problems
and its promise as one of the
10 principal islands of the
West Indies federation which
in the next year or so will
take its place among this
hemisphere's independent na
tions.
Here in this westernmost of
the West Indies, there is an
acute awareness of Jamaica's
proximity to Castro's Cuba
and to troubled Haiti and the
Dominican Republic.
Race Problem Possible
Here also is awareness that
Jamaica's exploding popula
tion, with a heritage based 90
per cent on that of the slave
and the indentured servant,
could result in a race problem
based either on Castroism or
communism.
S. WHITE
is wholly content with that
position.
Moreover, Mr. Johnson is
genuinely grateful for an un
broken series of generous acts
toward him by the President.
No vice president before in
history - not even Richard
Nixon in the Eisenhower
years - has been brought so
intimately and so continuous
ly into collaboration at every
step with his president.
The more Mr. Johnson has
seen of Mr. Kennedy in action
at the White House, the more
his respect and liking for the
President have risen.
THE President, in his side,
is magnanimous in his
dealings with the Vice Presi
dent - in large ways and in
small. In summary, then, the
approaching first - month an
niversary of the new admin
istration draws near without
a sign of that "rift" between
these two young,, powerful
and candidly ambitious men
which many had predicted
and for which many more
had hoped.
Johnson wherever possible
is working in semi-anonymity
for presidential enterprises.
He is no shrinking violet. He
is simply aware that to allow
the spotlight to fall much
upon himself would ' injure
that work and thus the admin
istration itself. And it would
give opportunity to Johnson
detractors to carry tales to
the White House that "Lyn
don is flexing his muscles."
At times, therefore, when
duty requires muscle-flexing
- as for example to smooth
presidential problems in con
gress - he is muscleflexing,
all right, but only in a deeply
private way.
THE process requires a sub-
tie skill. The problem is
how to help always - but al
ways without seeming to help
too visibly, and without open
ing any doors to those who
simply cannot believe that
two such men could, after
their own battles were over,
fight together in mutual re
spect - and in mutual affec
tion. Never before had any presi
dent entered office with a
vice president who had so
strongly challenged him for
that very post. But whatever
you may think of the new
administration one thing is
sure: the very strength of this
duo resides in the very fact
that in the recent past each
was so strong in his own right.
It is, in political savvy, a
"team." indeed.

The answer to that is that
the administration does not
tell the same story.
Secretary Goldberg began
