It is not a joy-making task. Bad news and pessimism stared up from almost every page. The antics of a law-defying governor in Mis sissippi; the deaths from floods in Spain; the worry over Cuba and the Russian "fishing port" there; the revolution in Yemen; the usual un subtleties of politics; the foot-dragging of Con cress : the troubles in Red China and Africa and Russia and South America; juvenile delinquency; narcotics; the overcrowding of schools and col leges; the needs for more tax money the news and opinion flow on and on. CUCH transitory, surface ills are bad enough. But one also, these days, gets to thinking of the really important things, of which those listed above are little more than the surface indications. We ponder the delicate balance of war and no-war, teetering on a missile with a hydrogen bomb at its tip; we study the population figures for the world and their awful implications for starvation, famine, civil disorder and sheer pres sure ; we eye the rising tides of nationalism from the new and inexperienced nations which, one day soon, may include atomic weapons in their arsenals; the recurring inhumanities of the com munist states and their greed for power. X7HAT, we sometimes ask ourself, is the use? Why continue the struggle for decency and freedom and dignity and honor? Why not con fess that it's all useless and can come to nothing, and then stop worrying? Why not indeed? But there is something in a human being that will not allow hope and faith to be quenched ut terly. Nor are courage and determination neces sarily daunted by the" size of the challenges. In tellectually, one may despair, but, with the emo tions, only occasionally. t Too, there is the saving grace that no human mind can dwell at length on such things without diversion, and the diversions oftentimes are worthwhile in themselves. A ND SO we those of us so concerned con tinue with our day-to-day tasks, hoping that the sum total of all our efforts may add up to a minescule measure of progress, and that disaster will be staved off long enough for the forces of right and reason and good will to prevail. We plug for more and better education; for an easing of tensions where possible, and for a forthright stand where this is not possible; for greater understanding among peoples and among people ; for a higher degree of cooperation among the societies we believe are on the riht track ; f or an eventual; accommodation of some of the forces now in conflict. And there are signs a few of them, here and there that all is not as bleak and dreary and dangerous as those black headlines and pes simistic editorials would indicate. It's too bad that these patches of light aren't "news" in the same sense as the disasters and the conflicts. E. A. Air Traffic Decline Gil Gutjahr's theories on the reasons for the decline in passenger traffic at the Medford air port are interesting and, we believe, correct. , Of the three reasons the airport manager cited in a Mail Tribune story the other day, we believe that two are the most important, namely, the development of freeways, and the scheduling of flights. It is still possible to get from Medford to Portland by air more quickly than it is by auto-j mobile, but the difference lias shrunk consider- i ably. And today, figuring in driving to and from j airports, and waiting at them for flights or for ground transportation, one hardly saves any time I at all by flying rather than driving to Eugene, j Often, the convenience of having one's own car! when there onsets the slight saving ot time. at "THUS, the decline of "short haul" flights can be substantially attributed to freeway improve ment, and this will continue. Additionally, the impossibility of getting to Salem or Portland in time to transact business, and return the same day, is another major factor, we believe, in the drop-off. Many complaints about lack of convenient scheduling have been made in recent months, and a chamber of com merce committee is planning to conduct a survey to determine local opinion with respect to air service. The results should be revealing. CPEAKING of air transportation in general, it is our belief that the convenience and service is excellent while in the air, but that the standing in line, the waiting in the station, the shocking contrast between the courtesy and efficiency of air-borne personnel and the curtness, delays "and unpleasantness of ground transportation facili ties, is the greatest drawback to air passenger service today. We recall landing at Idlewild airport in New York some months ago, after a luxurious and breathtaking 4'o-hour jet sweep across country, only to be dumped into some dark and dirty sheds where our luggage was missing, finding our way to a dirty, smelly and crowded bus, jolting anil bumping into Manhattan, and climbing out at a crowded and confused downtown terminal, where we had to wait interminably for a taxi. It was a traumatic experience, and the airlines must find some way to improve it. E.A. "We've Eked Out A For Next Today & Tomorrow By Walter Lippmann c New York Herald Tribune Syndicate Nullification in Mississippi The Governor of Mississippi, Ross Barnett, has raised again the question which was posed at Little Rock five years ago. It is whether a state may use its own police and military forces to nulli fy the law of the land. Pres ident Eisen hower defined Lippmann the issue in 1857 when he said that "the police powers of the State of Arkansas" have been "utilized . . . to frustrate the order of the court." The position taken by Governor Faubus five years ago and by Governor Barnett today has never, I think, been advocated or jus tified by the national leaders of Southern opinion. For while they are opposed to de segregation, they do not es pouse the Faubus-Barnett doc trine of nullification by force. President Kennedy, like President Eisenhower before him, would be false to his own oath of office if he allow ed the theory of nullification by force to go unchallenged and become a precedent. TJENEATH and behind this " high constitutional Issue the Mississippi case is in sev eral important ways much worse than the Little Rock case. For one thing, at Little Rock the question was the in tegration of a co-educational high school. In Mississippi the question ts in fact whether there shall be token integra tion at the college level. The Mississippi case raises, as the Arkansas case did not, the critical question whether in any foreseeable future there can be common higher educa tion for the future leaders of the whites and the Negroes. In Arkansas there was already in existence at the time of the Little Rock affair consid erable Integration at the col lege level. Governor Barnett is threat ening to use the police powers of the state of Mississippi to close the door to the begin ning of an attempt to educate together - so that they may Try and """'"1 33 By BENNETT CERF- ONE OF HOLLYWOOD'S feuds had on one side Bcnchley and on the other grackle bird!

If Governor Barnett pre vails, there is no future, to which men can look in Miss issippi for an eventual peace able solution of the conflict If the governor is able to use force to prevent a grad ual and peaceable solution, he will be sowing the dragon's teeth. . 1WY own view has long been that when the Supreme Court rendered its decision against segregation in the pub lic schools, it was a tragic mistake-by the President, the Congress and public opinion to dump the enforcement helter-skelter and through pri vate law suits into the courts. "Integration," I wrote sev eral years ago, "is a problem in persuasion and consent which cannot be solved by in junctions and soldiers." We should be "asking ourselves whether the decision of the Supreme Court does not need to be supplemented" by a na tional policy and program of guidance and aid as to when, where, how far, and how fast integration should proceed in different school districts, and at the various levels of the elementary school, the high school ,the college, and the professional schools. "The wisest policy is to pro ceed by stages, beginning as soon as possible with integra tion in the universities, in the graduate schools of law, med icine, education, engineering, theology - and, where it can be done, without causing so cial convulsions, the bigger colleges. The object of this would be to train a new gen eration of white and colored men and women who will be leaders in their communities." ALL of this will be nullified In Mississippi by Gover nor Barnett. He is not dealing with a high school full of adolescents where there is a real problem of integration. He is dealing with the higher education of the future leaders of Mississippi. There his posi tion is intolerably obstructive. Sfop Me bitterest and most celebrated of the fence the late Robert side this is a true story a . . Washington Report By William (ei United feature Syndicate NEW ISOLATIONISM Washington A riling pressure on the Kennedy ad ministration to take up a ''tough er1' line in foreign policy has become the one over-master-i n g reality of the closing i c 87th Con gress. Cause is being f o 1- lowed by inevitable effect. And unless the sources of trouble are abated, the new congress coming on in Janu ary will be far more hospi table than the old toward an essentially Nationalist, as dis tinguished from an Interna tionalist, view in our foreign relations. This will be so even if the Democrats retain control of the new congress. It will be more sharply and dangerous ly the case should the Repub licans seize control of the House of Representatives. (The Senate is, in practical terms, beyond their reach this time.) THOUGH no Congress could actually force such a change, assuming an adamant stance by the President, no believer in internationalism as the ultimate necessity in the cold war could possibly welcome what would at best be a bitter tug-of-war between Congress and White House. The root cause of an already great and growing congres sional disenchantment is the blind failure to date of our principal allies to understand the depth of the American public mood. This feeling is that almost everywhere - in Southeast Asia, to s o m e ex tent even in Berlin, and most important of all, now in So viet-infiltrated Cuba -the Al lies are leaving us to hold the bag and the baby. A day or two ago, this col umnist suggested that the somewhat lofty disinclination of the British and others to do anything whatever to help seal off the Soviet military lodgment in Castro Cuba would most injure these non cooperators themselves in the end. By the time the article was in print, bitter public criticisms of this Allied inac tion - not to mention some suggestions that this was a poor way to assure the contin uance of American foreign aid - were being heard from right, left and center In Con gress, and from both parties. NOW, conferees represent ing the Senate and House have agreed on a directive im posing stiff economic sanc tions against Communist Pol and and Yugoslavia of a kind which two presidents Dwight Eisenhower and John F. Kennedy - had thus far been able to fight off. This was done in a rider to the administration's greatest foreign policy victory of its tenure, tne World Trade Ex pansion bill. The deep signifi cance of this is that such re strictions had again and again been defeated in more rele vant legislation. What it meant was that Congress had iisaiatt tr T WBire The Wisdom of Age By ERIC SEVAREID "The youth of America is their oldest tradition, it has been going on now for 300 years." - Oscar Wilde Well, a country has got to have some tra- ''TiA5 the belief that the traditional doesn't count, yesterday nev er happened and that the world -wide condition o f man is a blank sevareid slate waiting to he filled in by a brand new piece of chalk, made in Amer ica. But when one looks close ly he gets the feeling the tra dition of the youth cult is mostly propelled by the mo mentum of habit; as with an aging actress who won't give up, the eyelashes are false, the bloom is from the paint box. The old lady is trying too hard and It shows. So a national magazine announces the future with a whole issue devoted to the "Take-Over Generation." as If today as well as yesterday Isn't quite real, and the hoary old state of Massachusetts dances the political Twist, looking a little repulsive, as old folks do, and opts to send a pink-cheeked boy to the august United Stales Senate where he can apply his wisdom to the an cient problems of struggling man. The answer to this is that I this is a frre country, ir.n't it? j And the answer to that is that it was a free country until we handed It over to the i teen-agers and they began I loaning it back to us, bit byj S. Whit become o determined, in re cent weeks, aa to seize any vehicle whatever with which to express its feeling. BUT how, at any rate, does this congressional thrust fit into the point of this piece - namely, that resentment at Western Allied noncoopera tion is endangering the whole fabric of Allied unity in the cold war? It fits In because the policy of giving some as sistance to Poland and Yugo slavia, in the hope of widen ing their degree of detach ment from Moscow, is a West ern Allied, and not solely and simply an American, policy design. Congress thus has re pudiated here not only the Kennedy administration and the Eisenhower administra tion but also the whole Allied concert. Put all this alongside the deep present difficulties of the whole foreign-aid pro gram. Take note also of a new Gallup poll showing an immense public preoccupa tiono with cold war issues 10 times that of either unemploy ment or racial problems. As semble these factors and what is the message? The message Is that the moving finger is beginning to write In this country, and the words It is writing are uncommonly like the words of "a new isolation ism." In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS Not only does the Oregon State Highway Department build and maintain Oregon's state highways. As an extra curricular activity, described briefly in this space Friday, it operates and maintains Oregon's state parks. It has still another extra curricular activity that is of great and growing importance to Oregon's economy. Its Trav el Information Division car ries on an advertising pro gram designed to attract tour ists to Oregon. Tourism is already Ore gon's third most important in dustry - exceeded in dollar volume only by forest prod ucts and agriculture. THE TRAVEL Information Division's budget for this year (1962) was $425,000. Of this total, $235,037.34 was ex pended for magazine and newspaper space and radio and television time. The re mainder was spent for art and production, printing, photo graphy, general office sup plies and salaries and miscel laneous auxiliary promotions, including maintenance of an Oregon information booth at the Seattle World Fair. The bulk of this advertis ing money Is spent in the Western states, where the bulk of our tourists come from. But national publica tions are used extensively as a part of the program. Oregon's tourist attractions are thus brought before the nation as a whole. DOES IT pay off? Well, in 1961 tourist spending in Oregon amounted to about $186,000,000. That came to a little better than bit, at usurious interest. Since as the experts have convinced us, there Is no hiding place, it is useless to head for the hills. No recourse remains but a general consumer's boycott in the hope the juvenile male factors of great wealth will quit the business, give back the capital and return to the weekly allowance they lived on before phalanxes of mag azines, popular psychiatrists, progressive teachers and disk jockeys Incited them to their mass raid on the vault. Having departed the age bracket where anyone older than himself is too old to understand this brave new world, and reached the brack et where anyone younger than himself fails to understand that It's really a timid world with old, tired problems. I am Inclined to throw my slightly moth-eaten gauntlet in the face of those who claim that energy will save the republic and the world, and join the thin, tottering red line of those defending the standard of wisdom. Energy bids fair to kill us all. It was armed youth that saved democracy and reason in World War II. but it was also youth, madly goosestep ping for Hitler, Mussolini and Tojo, that unloosed the horror in the first place. It is youth, in the Peace Corps and else where, now trying to show the way to peaceful social revolutions, but the Vopos In East Germany have fuzz on their faces and the Castro brothers, doing their best to subvert a whole continent, wear beards only because they're still adolescent enough Welch, who was in his sixties; to think beards are manly. Matter of Focf n jph ai (ei New York Herald Tribune Syndicate THE WAR WE MAY BE WINNING Washington - Although no one seems to pay much atten tion any longer, American troops sua in daily comu .t in the war in South Viet Nam. What is more, there begins to be some hope of winning this war, which seemed so Alinp hopeless at the outset. So far it is only a case of beginning to see a glimmer of light at the end of a long, dark tunnel. But even the most pessimistic officials at the State Department and Pentagon now admit that the glimmer is really there. Part of this better atmosphere is due to the recent Washing ton visit of the able Vietna mese Secretary of Defense, Nguyen Dinh Thuan. The points that Secretary Thuan stressed as encouraging will seem a bit bewildering to anyone who is not familiar with the kind of guerrilla warfare that is going on in Viet Nam. To begin with, the price of rice has fallen sharp ly; and this is the first time in 15 years that the rice price has dropped at this season. ALL OVER Viet Nam, rice merchants have been hoarding their stocks, expect ing prices to go higher be cause of the Communist pol icy of preventing rice deliv eries from the countryside to the larger centers. The mer chants are hastily unloading now, before the major rice harvest, because they have concluded that the Commun ists are losing their former power to disrupt the rice trade. Books filled with military intelligence are less valuable than this kind of practical in dicator of the course of the struggle. It is confirmed by $100 for each Oregon resi dent, or somewhat in excess of $400 for each Oregon fam ily. That's a lot of new money to be brought Into our stale. Tourist expenditures in Ore gon for the 1962 season have not yet been computed, but this year's total is expected to exceed last year's mater ially. ONE more word: In no year since this pro gram of tourist advertising was Instituted have the Ore gon gasoline taxes PAID BY THE TOURISTS failed to ex ceed by TEN TIMES all the money spent to carry on Ore gon's tourist advertising pro gram. OREGON'S state parks have helped greatly in attract ing tourists to our state and in making their stay here so pleasant that they keep on coming, in increasing num bers year after year. Summing it all up, it seems to be obvious that these extra curricular activities of the Oregon Stale Highway De partment - Including opera tion and maintenance of the stale parks and advertising Oregon's tourist attractions to the nation - have contributed immensely to the improve ment of Oregon's economy. and Folly Every continent has its take-over generation, but they don't all intend to take-over In the sense "Life" magazine had in mind about American youth; they intend to take over a lot of places and pos sessions they would not nor mally inherit, and they in tend to stun the present pro prietors before they reach for the take. The trouble with youth is not only Its illusion that en ergy is the answer but its Illusion that its ideas are new. Except in the field of the physical sciences, I confess I can't at the moment recall a sinsle bright, workable, new Idea from youth that promises to get the republic or any part of the world on the way out of their present miseries. The present college generation sheds much heat on disarma ment, the race problem. Cuba and the underdevelopeds, but no light that guides and com forts. Indeed, the Frenchman and the German now undoing the enmity of a thousand years are in their seventies and eighties, respectively; the Englishman leading the way to an historic re-arrangement of Britain's global position hasn't a dark hair left on his head; the Chief Justice asso ciated with the new break- through on our racial dilem-j ma is a septuagenarian; so is the fieriest liberal on the; court. Justice Black; the two I Americans setting the pace for j the renovation of education.1 are Conant and Rickover, j neither a toddlrr; the most passionate cry for human dec ency I have ever heard in j Washington came from Joseph I tiie freshest new-minted po- other comparable indicators, all showing that normal com merce is beginning to be re established. And these, in turn, are reinforced by Secre tary Thuan's report on an enormous increase in volun teers for the Vietnamese army's NCO and Officers Training Schools. The fact that the Vietnam ese government can now pick and choose among several thousand volunteers, where candidates formerly had to be drafted, has two important meanings. The volunteers no longer seriously fear the brut al Communist reprisals against soldiers' families, which have long been stand ard practice. And in the vol unteers' villages of origin, the people are beginning to expect the Communists to be beaten in the end. TN SHORT, there is a favor-- able movement at the grass roots, with which the govern ment of President Ngo Dinh Diem is always accused of not being In touch. The reason for this favorable movement is not far to seek, either. The Diem government, which is also accused of "not trusting" the people, has in fact been organizing the vil lagers in semi-fortified "stra tegic hamlets," and has been giving arms to the village mil itias - which is not a usual sign of distrust. In the prov inces where the strategic ham let program is well-advanced, the newly-armed villagers have been kiling more Com munists than the regular army. In sum, when given the means to defend themselves against the Communists, the Vietnamese people are doing just that. None of this would be pos sible, of course, without the American aid program which Congress is now so anxious to hamstring. The strategic ham lets scheme would not even begin to work, either, without the parallel effort of the U.S. Commander in Viet Nam, Gen. Paul D. Harkins, to lib erate the Vietnamese army from its old defensive posi tions, and to take the offens ive against the Communists wherever possible. INTERESTINGLY enough, General Harkins is more optimistic, if anything, than his Vietnamese co-workers. While here. Secretary Thuan gave the estimate that the Communist guerrilla move ment in South Viet Nam could be decisively destroyed by two or three more years of hard work. At one of the re cent Hawaii meetings of U.S. officials with responsibilities bearing on the Vietnamese war, General Harkins said that job could be done "with in one year after the army attains a fully offensive foot ing." Maybe hopes are now run ning too high. The real situa tion in Viet Nam will be test ed in October and November, when the weather will offer the Communists their best chance to stage major attacks, if they still have the capabil ity. Furthermore, present hopes are based on the as sumption that the Communist North Vietnamese will not raise the stakes in the game, by even more overt aggres sion against South Viet Nam. of Youth lilical talk I ever heard cams from Adlai Slevenson, then over fitly; our first orbiting hero, John Glenn, produced heart-throbs, not in the teen age girls but in his contempo raries, us fat and forties. If people are turning for guidance to the Robert Frosts and the Carl Sandburgs, it's not just respect for their white hairs; it's because in their eighties they are seeing new things and saying new things in new ways. Teddy has energy, enough for hell - for-leather spurts through Africa and South America, but none of his dis coveries added to my under standing nf those critical re gions and some of his notions were plain wrong. Bobby is a dynamo, but if his youthful, inquiring mind has added any new conceptions to our under standing the rule of law in this society, they have escaped my notice. I agree with those who dis like the spectacle of old men making wars for young men to fight, and I would changa it around, if I had my way, so that the old men fought the next war. Because they would soon realize that no gain could outweigh the loss, make a ne gotiated peace leaving life and space for all concerned and go back home. I don't know what started me on all this. Teddy, maybe. But more likely it was Ber nard Baruch, who drove me around his place the other aft ernoon in one of those electric golfing carts and had me beg ging him to slow down on th curves.
