MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON WEDNESDAY. APHIL 18. 1962 olitical Indoctrination of Communist China Army Being Intensme A 9 Tokyo - (DPI) - Communist China is Intensifying the po litical indoctrination of its armed forces. Authorita t i v e reports re ceived here from behind the Bamboo Curtain indicated the stepped-up indoctrination pro gram has been accompanied by public reminders of Com munist Party directives order ing preferential treatment lor soldiers and their dependents. The government also has urged the organization of more civilian groups to 'pay "comfort visits" to the mili tary units and the army has admonished the soldiers to 'support the government and love people." It might be possible to in terpret this as a sign of unrest or discontent among me mm. tary forces, coming at a time when the nation's civilian and military leaders undoubtedly are engaged in secret, serious debate of many basic policies. But there was no evidence more concrete than these re ports to support such an in terpretation. Programs Launched A report published in the official Peiping People's Daily earlier this year, but only re cently received here, said that " 'live' ideological education" programs were being launch ed "in a big way" throughout the army. "The whole army is im mersed in an atmosphere of bustling activity and bursting energy," the paper said. The People's Daily report was on the "flexible and pene trating manner" of the army's "political work." The intensified "education" nr indoctrination program is being carried out along new policy lines laid down by De fense Minister Marshal Lin Piao late last year. There was no elaboration of this new policy except to say that it provided for "giving the first priority to the human factor, politics, ideological work and live' thinking in political work." Materials. Methods Adopted "The various armed forces units this year further adopt ed various 'live' teaching ma terials and 'live' methods to give lectures on current trends, policies and tradi tions." the paper said. "This enabled the officers and men to judge current trends from the mass viewpoint and the revolutionary viewpoint and iorge bravely ahead." "Education for the new lighters involved the study of Communist Party Chairman Mao's (Tse-Tung's) remarks relevant to the building of our army and the army-build-ing guideline," it said. "After studying Chairman Mao's ar ticles . . . many armed forces units have come to understand They'll Do It Every Time By Jimmy llado Gripsack left instructions to be called at 7a.m. evecv day, but it didn't seem to .mean anything How HE DOESN'T HAVE TO AQISE TILL MUCH LATECANO THE MOTEL HELP KEEP CALLING HIM AT THE OLD TIME - f I LEFT A 7S0RRY,: L- CALL FOR SEVEN ) SlR-BuT T Y G000 LOOK.'

The twice - a - year confu sion over when we will try to gain an hour of sunlight and give it back starts all over again for much of the nation at 2 a.m., April 29. But for many states time won't change. The federal government i doesn't have a thing to do I with what kind of time we1 keep, except to set forth the geographic lines for the four standard time zones-Eastern, Central, Mountain and Pacific. No Law Since 1919 There hasn't been a federal law specifying "Daylight Sav ing" time since Oct, 26, 1919. National Daylight Saving Time existed only in 1918 and 1919. It died when Con gress repealed the law over President Woodrow Wilson's veto. Of course, the whole nation lived a hour ahead during World War II, but that was "war time" and it lasted all year, from Feb. 9, 1942, until Congress restored standard time effective Sept. 30, 1945. Between the two world wars and since then, the matter has Line This Summer Portland-lUPli-Pacific Power and Light Co. President D. R. McClung said Tuesday the company's new 230,000 volt transmission line into Cali fornia will be completed this summer. McClung told a stockhold ers meeting the intertie will allow coordination of plants on half a dozen rivers that can produce more than one million killowatts of power. The 23 members of the PP&L board of directors were reelected, headed by chair man Paul B. McKee of Portland. Last year, there were 27 states that, in part or as a whole, advanced their clocks, most of them on the last Sun day of April. The District of Columbia joined this group. Not even among the day light savers, however, is there complete agreement on when to start or when to stop, or even whether the entire state must take part. Most of the : observers, however, will set their clocks back again at J 2 a.m., Oct. 28, the last Sun day in October. ! Here is a list of the "day light saving" time observers in the West, with their start and stop dates this year: Note: : Where observance is required by state law, the period us ually is specified from 2 a.m. on the last Sunday in April to the last Sunday in October at 2 a.m., so that the exact date changes from year to year.

The report in the Canton Nan-Fang Jih Pao said, "we must carry out in an over-all manner the system of preier-1 ential treatment . . ." Comfort Groups Formed A New China News Agency dispatch, which was not in cluded in the agency's over seas service but which was re ceived here, said: "Comfort groups have re cently been formed by people of various circles in many areas throughout the country for the nurnose of paying com fort visits to PLA (People's T.ihorntinn Armv) units and the People's Armed Police, who have been working hard to safeguard the motherland and have taken an active part in the socialist construction of the motherland." A separate People's Daily article said the general po litical department of the Both Sides Rapped By Fact-Finders San Francisco - (UPll - The West Coast maritime strike reflects "the chaotic and ar chaic approach to collective bargaining" in the shipping industry, according to a gov ernment report. The government Tuesday re leased a fact-finders' report on why the month-old strike happened and why it will be tough to solve. Both sides were chastised in the report. It asserted em ployers and unions were ham strung bv "their own shib boleths" industry 's reference to "whipsaw tactics" and the unions' demand for "neces sary catch-up." The fact-finders were head ed by Harvard professor and government mediator James J. Healy.
