Hatfield for Governor The two candidates for Governor of Oregon at the coming election are Mark 0. Hatfield, the Republican incumbant, and Robert Y. Thornton, Democrat, the state's attorney general. Both men are long-time and proven public servants of high personal charactor. Thornton has served in the state senate and in his present post for many years. Hatfield has been state senator, secretary of state, and Governor. Both men are personable, likeable, and. in varvinc decrees and ways, able. Which one would for the next four years? IN OUR considered opinion, Mark Hattield would. We say this with full knowledge of the many good qualities possessed by Bob Thornton a dedicate sense of public service, a widespread knowledge of the state, a legal background, a concern for Oregon's natural resources. It is simply that we think Mark Hatfield's experience and executive and administrative abilities are superior to Thornton's for this par ticular position. We think so despite the fact that we have differed with Governor Hatfield on a number of occasions, and have said so. BUT, TAKING his record of four years as Gov ernor as a whole. Hatfield has been a good Governor; perhaps not an good one. Too, his concern for education in Oregon, while not as fervent and extensive as we could wish, shows up better than Thornton's, and we consider this to be the most important single is sue facing Oregon today. We disagree with the Governor's proposals for a cabinet form of government for the state, with his involvement in realigning the welfare commission and moving it to Salem, with his known tendency to influence the activities of the independent boards and commissions which have served the state so well. But we also consider that these points of view and these actions of his have been motivated by a sincere desire for the best and most effec tive government for Oregon TTRUTHFULLY, Oregon is fortunate to have two such able men as Mark Hatfield and Bob Thornton vying for its highest office. We shall be well served no matter who is the victor Nov. h. Rut in balance, it seems to us that Mark Hat field's qualifications suit him better for the job than do Bob Thornton's. Therefore, we recommend a vote for Hat field for Governor of Oregon. E. A. P. S. We did not mention Robert Wampler, an independent candidate for Governor, in the above, since we do not a serious candidate, nor qualified for the post. He is a disaffected former state police officer who got into disciplinary trouble, and is now deputy sheriff in Clackamas county. His cam paign seems to us to he principally motivated oy his grudge against State Police Superintendent H. G. Maison (one of servants) and his boss, Governor Hatfield. Fair Apportionment Measure No. 9 on the is worded as follows: "LEGISLATIVE APPORTIONMENT CON STITUTIONAL AMENDMENT Purpose: Changes legislative apportionment formula. Cre ates AO permanent representative districts. Per mits enlargement of Senate to H.i. Enlarges House to (i,r) or more. Provides for enforcement." This proposal has times in these columns before. e support its adoption because we believe it to be a fair com promise between the "federal plan," whereby areas have representation without regard to pop ulation, and trie "pure population" plan, whereby population has representation without regard to area. X7IIAT this proposal would do would be to in " sure that no major area of the state would be wholly deprived of ione representative. All - ; t , 1 1 ,i i v mi 1 1 1 it v ct 1 1 1 1 districts used in apportioning representation. The only way that "one man, one vote" could be achieved in Orej-on would be for the entire legislature to be elected from the state at larjie--and what a mess that would be! Measure No. 9, in our view, is the fairest that can be devised fairest to all parts of the state.

I "How Did We Happen Matter of Fact (c) New York Herald A MATTER OF PRIORITIES Washington There Is something almost lunatic, something too strange to be quite rational, in the con tract between the simultan e o u s discus sions of for eign policy here in Wash ington and out in the coun t r y , in the political cam Almp paign. In more than a quar ter of a century as a political reporter in this city, this cor respondent has encountered nothing quite like the mood that has grown up in Wash ington in the past two months. The long, stirring, impassion ed debate that ended at Pearl Harbor, the swift decision that met the challenge in Korea, were dramalic and easy to de pict. Tiie new mood has nei ther of these qualities. The source of this mood is simple enough. The leading American policy-makers, from the President on down, are now convinced il is a much heller than even bet thai Ni kila S.

Khrushchev, it must bo :e niemhered. has already issued two time-limited ultimatums on Berlin, Ihe first in Novem ber, l!15:t, and the second at Vienna in liltill. Both these ul timatums finally proved to ho bluffs. The obvious Soviet preparations to push the Ber lin crisis to a climax can cer-1 lainly end Ihe way the ulli-i malum ended. But the fad remains that.' as of now, the President and : j"is policy-makers seriously expect an early and final ili max at Berlin. Very few peo ple in Ihe count ry at large seem to realize this, or to un derstand the kind of climax that is expected. In brief, what is expecleri is Ihe kind of Soviet or East Gorman attack on Western rights in Berlin that can only he met by the use of armed force to defend Berlin's freedom. 'IMIK (iieslinn Ihe president 1 and hi have been debating is nut whether lo use force in Ihese circumstances, bul how best lo use force. The decision has already been reached to act wilhout Rrilish and French "'i'Pn. 'f tis proves ne.-cs saiy, fur a prompt, decisive n ,,.,. , n'v ,.bHege to n posle lo any challenge to our basic Herlin righls. Only Chancellor Adenauer can mlerpose a vein, by speci fically asking Ihe U.S. not In defend Merlin, and by reiu--ing In aid in llerlin's defense. The Untied Stales cannot, af ter all, lighl a war in Ger many with out West German i-onsenl. Put a West Gennjn vein is unlhink.thlc. This being the approach lo Ihe first question, a second question is also bring unavMid .iblv discussed. This is the question of whether a battle over the land or air acivs routes to Pcrlin will nr will not expand into a big. 11 bomb ar. 0 balance.

By Joseph Alsop Trlhune Syndicate battle over the land or air access routes will lead on lo something far more terrible is never ruled out, because il cannot be. Instead, this possi bility is squarely faced, with somber, rather taciturn reso lution. In truth, except for a brief instant after the Chinese in tervention in Korea, this is the only time since the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki thai nuclear war has been considered as a dis tinct, current possibility by the U.S. government. Merci fully, the possibility is still considered to be fairly slen der. Even so, this should be enough to suggest the lunacy of the contrast remarked on above. While the policy-makers ac cept the actual likelihood that we shall have to use armed force to defend Berlins' free dom, and also face the possi bility so grimly inherent in such a use of force, the orators of the campaign are bellow ing about Cuba. (GIVING Cuba priority over Berlin, at a time when a Berlin crisis appears to be rapidly approaching, is like going all out lo treat bursitis while totaling neglecting can cer. Cuba lr rather like bursi tis, in truth, being painful, very irritating, and potentially very inconvenient. Like bur sitis, it may need treatment, and perhaps drastic treat ment, in the end. But complicating the dread fully dangerous Berlin prob lem by a hairbrained, immedi ate aliack on the Cuban prob lem would he an action so ir responsible lhat it deserves to be called criminal. Irresponsi bility seems to be spreading, lo be sure. The general Irene! is shown by Ihe many self- ' righteous denunciations of the i altempt to free the Cuban prisoners, for whose plight every American has a share of responsibility. The President, it must he added, has s o m e blame for litis more and more wide spread irresponsibility. If he lold the country at large what he and his policy-makers see in tlte future, we should be hearing fewer campaign-lime imitations of the geese of the Roman capital.

There is some doubt about it be cause of the interview giv en on Tues- Llppmann day lo a Ger man newspaper by the de fense minister, Franz Joseph Strauss. The full test is not available as I write, but Hcrr Strauss appears to say that Germany will hold back un less ail the occupying powers plus NATO have first commit ted themselves in a conflict. This uncertainty will have to be cleared up if the commit ment on Beriin is to be fully activated. Probably il will be cleared up. But, as important as this would be, it would not be enough. Standing firm in a showdown will not solve the Berlin problem, which is how to guarantee a good life of democratic freedom to half a city over a hundred miles deep inside the Communist world. Either before a show down or after it, it will b2 necessary to resume the nego tiations with the Soviet Union which have been stalled since last spring. The negotiations, of course, have no chance to succeed without the consent and col laboration of the West Ger man government. For this, we must never forget, not only a Soviet and an an Allied prob lem. It is primarily a German problem. Yet there is not now a true political understanding about the future of Berlin and of Germany between Bonn and Washington. We must hope the basis of such an under standing can be laid down during Chancellor Adenauer's coming visit to Washington and that the understanding can be worked out while he is still the German Chancel lor. rtHE paramount practical is--- use upon which significant negotiations depend and around which they will re volve is the degree of recog nition which the Western al lies will accord to the East German slate. Weslern with-' drawal from Berlin is not, as we have all said again and again, a negotiable question. But the degree of recognition of and the kind of relationship with East Germany arc emin ently negotiable questions. Thus, commercial surface traffic with West Berlin has for years been regu'atcd by a Bonn-Pankow trade agree ment and has been adminis tered by East German offi cials. It is sheer nonsense, therefore, to talk as if there has been or could be such a thing as absolute non-recognition. The practical question is how much more recognition and of what kind there is to be. It is fashionable to treat any further recognition of East Germany as a concession made at the expense of West Germany. 1 believe this to be a fallacy, and I submit that it is oniy by increasing eco nomic, scientific, social, and political contact lhat Ihe two Gcrmaiiys can eventually be reunited peaceably. rpHE official view is thai -- East Germany must have no recognition which implies lhat it is in fact a stale, and i.Lii minm ft J, ' ' the start of a Democratic re-!

The official view of re unification is that East Ger many is to be given the chance to vote itself out of the Communist orbit and out of the Soviet alliance in order to joint West Germany and the Western Alliance. This is and always has been, a pipe dream, and nobody who has ever been lo Ger many or has studied the Ger man question, believes that there is anything in it. The world is rent by a momentous power struggle between the Soviet Union and the West, and it is inconceivable that the Soviet Union will, while it has the power to prevent it, agree lo a united Germany of 70 million people within the NATO alliance. Indeed, the official view of reunification is so patently impossible thai, when il is put forward by responsible states men, it arouses suspicions. T'o propose reunification on what are known to be impossible terms is in fact not lo pro pose reunification at all. AND in truth, Dr. Aden auer's great friend. Gen. de Gaulle, is not in favor of German reunification and avoided the discussion of it during his recent tour of Germany. The British govern ment is, to put il mildly, re luctant to see Germany re united. The Low Countries do not want reunification, and it would be difficult lo say with much certainty that Dr. Aden auer, who is an anti-Prussian from the Rhineland, has any burning desire to be reunited with the Prussians and the Saxons. It can surely be said that the official formula of reuni fication by plebiscite is an obstacle to the reunification of Germany, not a method of achieving it. That may be one of the reasons why so many people who do not want a big Germany pay lip service to it. Yet, despite the unavowed but very general objections to German reunification, I for one believe that the two Ger manys must be and should be reunited. How'.' Once we fix if in our minds lhat the two Germanys freer: n wS "Let's se, hav w got everything for deer hunting?

Well, here's a sample: Space engineers, confident that man will reach the moon within the next ten years, face another difficult problem: How will the spacemen cannot be reunited by Soviet surrender, the only conceiv able way, I submit, is to start from the situation as it is. This means recognizing that there are two German states, and then providing ways and means by which they can live side by side and, as Germans with Germans, work out in detail and by concrete experi ence their national unity. Ai I see it, the two Germanys are a cloth which has been torn apart. The task of re unification is to reweave into one whole the two unsightly parts. to argue, in effect, that even an overwhelming party ma- j jority in both houses is not enough and he must have a ! near monopoly. The truth is thai unlike nearly all off year elections this is a "personality" eler- tion. It is true on the federal level, where, if anything is changed by the President, il will be because of his person. not his arguments. It is true on the state level. In several ! races for gov ernnrshins will i lie the only real excitement , for election night, and even there personalities are more important than issues.
