Today, Ken Denman is gone, the victim of a heart attack which he suffered while doing one of the things he liked best, going into the fields with his dog. His was a life with many facets. He was a lawyer, public servant, conservationist, outdoors man. One of his friends says of him: "Ken was a philosopher and sought to practice his own philosophy, namely, that one should direct and guide his interest and his life to the fullest degree pos sible, and should not allow life to pull and haul and direct him any more than was absolutely necessary. . Ken took time to hunt and fish, to hike, to train his dogs, and to participate In the affairs of his church and his community in which he was interested and concerned. He did not try to do everything, as so many do, but limited his Interest reasonably and wisely." LIIS FRIENDS, and they were many, associated Ken Denman with the word integrity. A col league writes: "... He was unwaveringly and scrupulously hon est in everything he did. In over 30 years of dealing with him I have found him scrupulously faithful in every representation he might make. He was rock like in his devotion to truth." Over the years he gave of his time and know ledge to the public service, as an outstanding member and chairman of the state game com mission, as a member of the local Forest Service advisory board, and in many other capacities. A lifelong friend and companion of Ken's, who had shared many of his outdoor experiences, feels this little verse is an appropriate memorial : He was a friend whose heart was good, ' Who walked with men, and understood; His was a zeal we loved to see Which wavered not, that asked no fee For kindliness of service done: And now that he has journeyed on. The good he wrought here never ends, , For it lives in the hearts of his many friends. E. A. Public School Needs "We Are Determined To Fight Communism By Any Meant Short Of Actual Spending" Soviet Jockeying on Berlin Question Continues; No Hot War Outbreak Seen By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign News Analyst Since 1958, Soviet Premier Khrushchev has been blowing hot and cold on Berlin. Now there is a feel ing that when Khrush cbev says he will s'gn a sepa rate peace treaty soon with the East Germans, thus threate n i n g Allied supply lines to West he may mean it. Khrushchev long has been under pressure for such a treaty from the puppet East German regime of Walter Ul bricht, as well as under har assment from more militant members of the Communist bloc to prove he can be tough toward the West despite his policy of peaceful coexistence. There also has been the embarrassment he brought on himself by setting previous deadlines which passed with out action in the face of firm Allied resistance. Soviet efforts to get the Al lies out of West Berlin actual- COMMUNICATIONS Letters to the Editor must bear the name end address of the writer, although under certain circumstances the use of a pen name or initial for publication is permissible.

Herb The National Committee for Support of the Public Schools is a relatively new organization, dedicated to this belief : "That the American public schools are the founda tion of American democracy, American strength and American faith in freedom of thought and freedom of expression. "That without vastly Increased financial support by the American people and the American govern ment, the public schools will never achieve the quality they must have to meet the necessities of the Ameri can future." The committee is composed of some of the most distinguished leaders in American life. It is non-partisan (both Harry Truman and Alf landon are members, indicating the spread or. political thought which can agree on the impor tance of education). THE COMMITTEE'S problem is to communi- rtafa flia nro-nnrtv nf imnrnvinir thp nutinn'R schools to the nation's people. Part of its state ment of objectives says : " . . The Committee will urge the American people to come to grips with the tact that it is within their power to make the American public school the greatest instrument of human betterment the world has ever known. If the people of America believe that this country should spend Its money to create such an educational system, then that Is where the money will be spent. The National Committee for support of the Public Schools wishes to do everything In its power to help the American people make that choice." How can this be done? What means should be employed to make this message a meaningful one to the citizen-in-eeneral The committee is seeking answers to these questions, and welcomes suggestions. A RECENT letter from its "executive director, Ralph W. McDonald, says in part: "Evidence is mounting daily that adequate support of the public schools is the nation's most critical need. How can the National Committee, acting for outstanding leaders In all sections of the country, be most helpful In convincing our fellow citizens of this need and directing their think ing to possible ways o' meeting it?" It's a tiood oiifstion. How can the most af fluent society in history be convinced that educa tion is worthy of at least as much money as whiskey, cigarettes or cosmetics? How can a peo ple whose disposable income (even at tor taxes) is higher than any in history, be persuaded to al locate a bit more of it to the benefit of future generations? Any suggestions? E. A. Music. Flowers and Rocks To the Editor: I read that music has strange powers. Hasn't it, though? I read the advertisement "Drummer wanted." Being rather lively at It I answered and was in vited to drop in an listen. I did. The first two rackets - T can't call 'em "tunes" - nearlv drove me nuts. "Crash, bane. bump, squeal" and that power broke loose. So did I. and if ever I hear Rock an' Rnll again it will be from some distance. Say folks, you should have attended that garden club in Phoenix. The Senior Activity Center Orchestra was invited tu piay mere and we gave the music that hath charms, If I do say so. That group of gar deners had dahlias as big as pie plates and a wonderful collection of flowers of every color. There were cat tails ar- ranged in a nice fan shaoe in an ooiong planter and each tail had a split wiener bun at tached to its brown sides. If it hadn't been for the greens between 'em, I would have laKen a big bite. i saw a oououet of rorf dahlias that sat in surround ings or dusty miller, and roses that were absolutely gorgeous. A counter of driftwood that water alone had shaped like birds, hens, roosters and many kinds of things - that took my eye and I spent some time there. (If I could turn time back, I'd be a shemale beach comber.) Soon some carvings of vege tables got into my other eye and I was set for the P.M., but about that time my hus band got his eye on me and I had to go home. That man has more eyes than a potato. Every time I try to sneak an apronful of Strictly Personal By Sydney J. Harris (cl Field Enterprises, Inc. forgotten one very important fact. In 1943 our Senate, so brainwashed with ballyhoo they never even read it, signed into the law of our Land the United Nations Charter. Un der this Charter, which has treaty status, the United States cannot protect herself, or anybody else, even if we are attacked. Read Article 51 if you doubt this. It states that in case of armed attack we can act in self defense ONLY, until the United Nations takes over. So help me, that's what it says. So what are we going to do, then, about this unen durable, festering sore just 900 miles from our shores? Should we ask the UN to clobber Castro for us as it has clobbered anti-Communist Katanga in the Congo? That's a laugh. The Under secretary General of the UN Security Council in control of the UN Military is a Commu nist and always has been, all seven of them. Can you imag ine the present Undersecre tary, the Russian, Eugeny D. Kisilev taking any steps against Castro that would em barrass Russia? Furthermore, Russia is a member of the Security Council and can veto any UN move against Castro. In this undeniably desper ate situation which is grow ing worse daily should we break the UN Charter treaty we signed as Russia has done with virtually all her treaties? Of course not. We should hold fast to our honor and by an act of Congress withdraw U.S. membership from the UN and all its subsidiary organiza tions. Then we could regain the respect of the whole world by enforcing the Mon roe Doctrine and restoring anti-Communist rule to Cuba. Our greatest danger is not from Castro. It is from the UN Charter which has ham strung and hog-tied Uncle Sam into utter helplessness L. C. Powell, 316 S.E. Eighth St., Grants Pass, Ore. PHYSICAL AND MENTAL DAMAGE ' During one of his riding lessons this summer, a 6-year- old-boy I know - know very well - took a tumble off the horse ond broke a bone near his wirst. For four weeks, his arm was in a cast up to the elbow. After the intlal shock - and the reassurance from the doc tor that the arm would be as good as new in a month or two - his parents' chief feel ing was one of astonishment. The resiliency and adaptabil ity of a child is unbelievable. Within a few days, the boy was able to perform all his customary tasks with one hand - dressing, tying shoes Dlaying with complicated toys Except for mounting another horse, the fracture prevented him from none of his vacation pastimes. Watching this amazing exhibition of dexterity (or. Artful English As one who makes a living putting words to gether, we have a lively appreciation for a well- turned phrase, a gracetul sentence, a subtly-con vcved meaning. Therefore we read with enjoyment a recent pronouncement by the faculty of heed college. Long embarrassed by a minority of the student body who exercise their independence and non conform i.sm by odd or sloppy modes of dress, the faculty composed this statement: "Resolved, that the faculty go on record as expecting students to observe the simple amenities of attire on public occasions and disapproving of their failure to do so." This is so susceptible to subjective interpre tation that it probably won't accomplish much. But one has to agree that it is an artful use of the English language. , E.

Insurance Survey Report Published Eugene - The general at titude of small retailers to ward insurance and insurance agents is one of "suspicion and distrust," leading to lack of communication between re- tailers and agents, which works to the disadvantage of both. As a result, retailers fre quently pay high premiums for insurance coverage wnicn is too often haphazard, over lapping, and inadequate. These are the conclusions contained in a new report, Insurance Management Prob- lems of Small Retailers," just published by the University of Oregon bureau of business research. The booklet was prepared with funds provid ed bv the U.S. Small Busi ness administration manage ment research grant program and will be distributed na tionwide by the SBA. The report was written by Dr. Donald A. Watson, assist ant director of the bureau, and A. Gerlof Homan, who was research associate in the bureau in 1900-61, on leave from the Stanford Research Institute. Project director was Dr. Wesley C. Ballaine, bu reau director. In a survey of 385 small retail establishments in Ore gon, it was found in the field of fire Insurance, the most costly Insurance which re tailers carry, that 22 per cent of the buildings were "ser iously underinsured," 33 per cent of the retailers were not insured up to full value on their stock. 10 per cent car ried no fire insurance on stock, and 18 per cent carried no fire insurance on equip- more properly, linisterity, for he was using his left arm only), as his proficiency increased day by day, I thought how parents worry about the wrong things in their children. Physically, a child Is much hardier than we think. We fret about acci dents, wet clothing, missed meals, infections. Yet, given the large numbers of acci dents and diseases a child is exposed to, it it tome thing of a miracle that any child reaches the age of 10. That most of them do reach thit age intact it compelling evidence of a child's hardi nett and adaptability. But only in the grott physical tense. In the emotional area (which parent! rarely think about until it is too late), the child it highly vulner able to influencei that we, at parentt, may be tcarcely aware of. The things that really cripple children - often permanently- are not falls from trees horses, not viruses or dietary defects. They are, rather, the pervasive dally atmosphere of a home, the unspoken hostili ties, the inconsistencies of mood, the anxieties about themselves which parents un consciously project upon their children. Perhaps we worry so much about the broken bones, the fevers and the chills, as a way of concealing from ourselves the more subtle - and there fore more insidious - damage we unknowingly perpetrate upon our children. And it does seem to be true that the classical "anxious mother", so worried whether her child is wearing a sweater on a chilly day, is often the one who is doing psychic harm to her child in ways that a dozen sweaters could not protect trom. The boy got along beauti fully with one arm. Where the crippling really counts is where it cannot be seen - not underneath the cast, but un derneath the skull. ly date back to within a few i sign his separate East German months of the end of the war treaty by the first of the year. there are no indications that he wants a general war now any more than he has in tha past. It could be that such a treaty would be a continua tion of the nibbling tactics by which the Soviets have been attempting to wear away Al lied rights in Berlin. In such a situation, Khrushchev could be expected to hem the East Germans with such re strictions as to prevent their being able to draw the Soviet Union into an unwanted con flict. There also has been specu lation that Communist Cuba, as a new element in the world situation, also enters the pic ture. In this event, Khrushchev might use the threat of a move on Berlin to prevent similar U. S. action against the Castro regime. in 1945, They reached one climax with the Berlin blockade of 1948, broken by a gigantic Allied airlift. In 1958 came an ultimatum in which Khrushchev said he would turn Berlin access con trol over to the East Germans six months unless agree ment were reached on a sepa rate treaty for East Germany. In June 1961, he gave Presi dent Kennedy another six month ultimatum, repeating the threats of 1958. Now he says he will wait until after the November elec tions in the United States. Throughout these years, the Allied answer has been the same. They are in Berlin by right of conquest and the Soviet Union will be expected to live up to its four-power commitments Even if Khrushchev does Washington Report By William S.

Greatest Danger To the Editor: With the Cuban crisis blazing furiously in our back yard our Presi dent has asked for the au thority to call up 150.000 mili tary reserves. Because of the threatening Communist build up there, many of our Sen ators are railing for a mili tary blockade of Cuba, some for both military and eco nomic blackade. and some for armed invasion! The Ameri can people are now thorough ly aroused over the landing of Russian amis and technic ians (technically trained troopst In Castro's stronghold. And the John Birch Society and many other patriotic or ganizations have passed reso lutions inMMcntly demanding action against Cuba. Everybody from the Presi dent on down seems to iave but spiritually. How many have searched the spirit of these people in the nudist col ony for purcness of spirit be fore they were cast into the teeth of the Devil? Who but God has such authority? Fail ure to see the good in people, rather than evil, is of hypo- critic faith. All men are created equal. God is no respecter of persons. For all have sinned and come short of the Glory of God. No one can glorify himself by speaking evil of thy neighbor. To Judge someone and con demn him you take away God's authority. God will sure ly punish you for this as you would your child if he should st.'nd before you and tell yoii what is what and take away your authority. God shall judge all people by their spirit, not the shape of their bodies, nor the clothes they wear, nor by how much money there is in their check ing account at the bank.

DOLLAR FLOW DIPS Washington -'ITD- The Com merce Department said Thurs day the net dollar flow out of the United States dropped sharply in April. May and June to from S476 million to S218 million. em young. Teddy Kennedy, the winner of the Democratic nomination for U.S. senator (by a landslide) has just turned 30. His primary oppon ent, tddie McCormack, is a doddering 39. Turning to the Republican side of the Massachusetts pri mary election, Lodge, the win ner, is a mere 35. His oppon ent, Congressman Curtis, is a ripe 69, going on 70. Again youth triumphed. THE AFTER-ALLERS Washington-A curious line is running through much pub lic and private comment about A the presence in Castro Cu I ba of Soviet iWv"i2 arms a"d s0- r i viet tecnnici - ans." It might 0 be called "tne a r g umeni or 'Weats-J'S after all," and HS,I it oes thus. iJI It is very up- . setting, oi course, that the Soviet Union has now made a publicly boasted military lodgment in this hemisphere. But, after all, the United States has forces of its own or allies of its own in many places con fronting Russia, too. Of this sort of reasoning the only possible query is how "sophisticated," how "ob jective," can you get? Isn't this another way of saying that there is, underneath, not much difference between us and our record and intentions and the Soviet Union and its record and intentions? Is there no distinction be tween the positioning of American forces in free coun tries which have asked for our protection and the posi tioning of Soviet forces in countries which have been brutally and simply overrun - say Hungary and Poland? WE HAVE troops In West Germany, yes. But is West Germany under our rule as East Germany is under Khrushchev's rule? President Kennedy, whose whole admin istration has been involved in endless and often losing arguments with Chancellor Konrad Adenauer, would hardly say so. For a decade we have had troops or military associations in a Europe running from Turkey on the east to Italy on the south and France on the west. But have we domi nated any of those countries? Charles de Gaulle of France would hardly prove so. For American foreign policy has been as notably unsuccessful in dominating de Gaulle as it has been in dominating Ade nauer or the Turks or the Italians or the Belgians or any of the others. If the after-allers are even partly right, what is the wet dog, only the spirit counts to God. Jesus stripped of clothing on the cross while people toss ed coins for his garments held not his head in shame for his nakedness. God, not confused by his naked body, knowing his spirit was pure, took him to heaven. The people con demned and judged Jesus, same as individuals are doing the sunbathers. For shame, get on your knees and ask forgiveness Don't be like a dog with a cockletnirr in his tail. Get down in the dust and ask God to forgive you. He knows your consciousness bears a heavy load. By saying you are a Christian you haven't got any one fooled but yourself. Draw no farther away from God with your visions of sins of naked people. God can ease your conscience for spitefully using his creations wrongfully in your thoughts. May God send peace between you and your sun-bather brothers. E. Dykes Box 58 Eagle Point, Ore. THAT brings up something else. At the general election in November, 30-year-old Ken nedy, Democrat, will be pitted against aging 35-year-old Lodge. HOW IS that going to work out? With youtn in the saddle in Massachusetts, and with Lodge handicapped by five years, it looks bad for him. Still, they are both six feet tall, and both have movie pro files. That may make the out come a little more doubtful. "THE KENNEDY-Lodge ven A detta? It's a long one. The two tribes have been tangling at the polls for near ly half a century. Lodge's great - grandfather defeated Ted's grandfather. John F. Fitrgerald. for the Senate back in 1918. PRESIDENT Kennedy de- feated Lodges father, Henry Cabot Lodge, for the U.S. Senate In 1952. President JFK won another victory over the same Lodge, who ran for vice-president on the Repub lican ticket in 1960. We'll see what we will see come November. t moral justification for foreign aid, for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, and all the rest? And what of our long record, backed by un broken history, of seeking no territory, no conquest? If via are indeed to be measured alongside the Soviet Union by our own voices, what is the use of anything at all? rpHE "after-all" logic comes to this: Here, after all, are two giant powers. If wa have the right to maintain foreign bases, though our bases are maintained with tha consent and on the eager ap peal of the host nations, then so does the Soviet . Union, even though its bases are maintained at gunpoint and in some instances over tha dead bodies of its hosts. If this is "objectivity", so then is the epigram which says that the rich and tha poor have an equal right to sleep in the public parks. What price the "obiectiv. ity" of a Chester Bowles, a presidential adviser, who says we must not attack a Cuba infected with Soviet military communism because we should then be charged in tha united Nations by the Rus sians with "blatant aggression and very likely they (the Rus sians) would win their case?" The naked right of self defense cannot possibly be al tered by any such mere Alice-in-Wonderland propa g a n d a "case" in the U.N. or elsewhere. T'HERE are only two possible excuses for not putting a stop right now to Soviet pene tration. One is the official judgment that as of now we are not directly menaced. The other is the estimate, on which President Kennedy is banking, that the job can be done through collective Pan-American action. Because he is president, his judgments must be accepted now because there can be only one president at a time and because only a president can either know all of the facts or act upon them anyhow. But if his judgments turn out wrong, and wrong because of any heed paid to the "after allers," there will be measure less tragedy for his adminis tration and for this country.
