Newspaper Page Text;1 -Ml 16 A WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 21. 1962 MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON Speaker Suggests Four Steps For Cuba to Leave Soviet Bloc The Kennedy administra tion could take four steps which might result in Cuba leaving the Soviet sphere of influence, according to David McReynolds, executive secre tary of the War Resistors' League and a co-editor of Lib eration magazine, who spoke Monday noon at a small luncheon in the Medford ho tel. McReynolds, who is making a tour of tliis country under the sponsorship of the Amer ican Friends Service commit ce, had prefaced the outlining of his four point-s by saying that the actions of this coun try had been largely responsi ble for Cuba falling within the communistic sphere. The four points are: Base Not Needed Withdrawal of the United States from the Guantanamo base in Cuba, which the speak er said is not needed and is outmoded; the renewal of dip lomatic relations with Cuba because such relations should be maintained with any de lacto government, whether this country approves of that government or not; renewal of the purchase of Cuban sug ar and other products on a competitive basis; withdrawal of the "iron curtain" which this nation has put up be tween the two nations, and lifting of travel restrictions for U. S. citizens who wish to go to Cuba. The speaker admitted under questioning that these points would be resisted as "appease ment" by many in the United States, but said that such ac tion would not be true ap peasement. If the United States follow ed such a program, or parts of it, Cuba might be able to follow an independent path, he declared. McReynolds said Cuba is not wholly commu nistic by any means, and add ed that if diplomatic and trade relations were resumed, it would be much easier for this country to influence the Cuban government. He said a study of some communistic countries, such as Yugoslavia, Hungary and Japanese Scientists Take Pictures of Radioactive Matter By DELOS SMITH UPI Science Editor New York -IUPII- Four sci entists have both looked at and phningraphed individual radio active 't 'V T . parti cles in a the fa llout V.

JZ' R c c a ii s e Deios smith active such particles are easy to locale, if you have a radiation detec tor. But picking them up and separating them into individ ual entities one from another and from ordinary atmospher ic dust particles, is something else again The scientists discovered that radioactive particles conic in colors golden, reddish brown, yellowish brown, and dark brown as well as in black without color. Not all arc spherical. Some of the cap tured 50 were oval, rod-like or lopsided. All were extremely tiny and had to be magnified many times before they became vis ible. Capturing them and fi nally photographing them t iok months of tedious and elaborate labors. The particles were all Rus sian visitors in Japan. They originated in Russia's nuclear test explosions of September and October. l!)(il, and fell 1n earth in Osaka in Novem ber. Scientists Distressed The tour scientists of the Osaka prefecture radiation laboratory delected thcin on their roof, i-, their rainwater collectors and on the leaves ol llieir trees. It rained Nov. 17 and the scientists were dis tressed. The outdoor dust con taining particles was washed away. Then it occurred to them to go over the dust which had been blown into buildings and had settled on doors and fur niture. It turned out to be an abundant source. Now thev had the task of separating radioactive parti cles from non-radioactive par ticles which in all other re spects are exactly alike since all arc dust. They finally got them con fined in tiny drops of cedar oil. This permitted them to be measured for individual radioactivity which in all cases was extremely high but diminished into small frac tions of the original strength by June, 1962, seven months atcr. These drops went onto mi croscopic slides and magnifi cation revealed their sizes, shapes and colors. As could be expected, the radioactive strength was directly related to size. Laboratory experiments have indicated that radioac tive particles are subject to being broken up into smaller particles. The Japanese scien tists T. Mamuro, A. Fujita, T. Matsunami and K. Yoshi kawa found this seemed to be so with only two of their captured 50. But they suspected that in both cases they had merely separated closely adjacent par ticles. When they Jabbed their other particles with a needle, thev "seemed to be so hard that even the impact of a nee dle could not crack them into two or more particles." Negroes Getting More Federal Jobs Washington-lUPII - The Ne groes are getting more fed eral jobs, especially white col lar positions, according to the President's C o m in i 1 1 c c on Kqual Employment Opportun ity. The committee said that in fiscal lflu'2 Negroes obtained 17 per cent of the li2.H;t3 new federal jobs dur ing the year, more than dou ble the normal rate. About 5.5()t) Negroes obtained em ployment in the ?4,5(i5 to $10, 015 a year brackets. An ad ditional ;!74 Negroes secured government salaries of $8,840 to $20,0110 a year. China, showed that in each of these, communism is greatly affected by its own cultural patterns, and resulted in each being less dominated by the Soviets. Cuba's Spanish cul ture means that the Cubans are freedom lovers, but that they like a strong central gov ernment, he said. Armed the People He pointed out that Castro has "armed the people" something which has not hap pened in any other revolution of recent history. He said Cas tro is (till criticized in Cuba, and added "you can't arrest an armed nation." The speaker said many in this country "are hysterical" over the Cuban situation, and added that this is because the "cold war has come home" for the first time. He charged that both the Soviet and U. S governments had "acted in haste," and said that this coun try, having won a great diplo matic victory, had "unleashed forces which are hard to con trol." McReynolds said his organi zation believes that the U. S., now being in an advantageous position, should be "willing to negotiate" from strength but added that history showed we seldom are willing to do this. Discusses United Nations Touching on the work of the United Nations in connec tion with the Cuban crisis, McReynolds said the UN "had come through well." He added that the UN bids fair to be more significant in the future than it has been in the past because the growth of the Afro-Asian bloc has resulted in the U. S. and Soviets no longer being the dominant forces. He warned that this would cause some factions in this country to attack the UN with even more vigor. He believes that, in the long run, world opinion is a potent factor in international rela tions and should not be dis regarded. During both his main talk and the discussion period, Mc Reynolds said that Americans should be aware of the moral problems which result from the Cuban crisis, as well as the political and military as pects. Reason To Fear Country He pointed out that the Cu bans have reason to fear this country, since an invasion, planned and financed by the U.S., had been attempted. He pointed out that this country from a moral standpoint, should not carry on operations in and against Cuba, such as sabotage and Invasions, and then declare that it Is wrong for the Cubans to retaliate. Concerning the U. S. posi tion about Russian bombing planes now in Cuba, he point ed out that "any plane can carry a bomb," and said this nation s position on the planes is a false one. The War Rcsistcrs' League does not believe that Cuba is attempting to incite other Lat in American nations, or is shipping them arms, McReyn olds declared, but added that this is a "tinder box" situation and that what is happening in Cuba cannot help but influ ence people in other countries, particularly those where eco nomic and social conditions provide the right breeding ground. The speaker continued from Medford to Ashland where he spoke at Southern Oregon col lege. He has lectured al sev eral colleges and universities on the current tour.

(UPI) Lockheed Strike Set lor Nov. 28 Burbank, Calif.-IUHI-A ne gotiating committee has set Nov. 28 for a strike against Lockheed Aircraft Corp. by International Association of Machinist members employed by the aerospace giant. Oregon Leads in Completed Roads Salem - Him - State High way Engineer rorresi cooper says that Oregon still icacis the nation in the percentage of interstate freeway mileage completed and opened. The U.S. Bureau of Public Roads credits Oregon with 65.4 per cent of its interstate system open to traffic, tins was nearly five percentage points ahead of New York, in second place. There are 732 miles worth of interstate highway planned in Oregon. Of this, 205 miles are adequate for today's traf fic, with another 272 miles ex pected to be ready for traffic volumes expected in 1075. Cooper said by the end of December, Oregon hopes to add another 25 miles of com pleted freeway. The walkout was set after thousands of union members voted overwhelmingly at mass rallies to authorize a strike. A union spokesman said pickets would be set up at all Lockheed operations, includ ing Cape Canaveral and Hon olulu. He said other unions were expected to honor the pickets. Lockheed officials indicated earlier that operations would continue even if the plants were struck. The key issue in the lengthy contract dispute has been the IAM insistance on a union shop. The company has re fused to accept compulsory union membership as part of the contract. Toy or Mascot Meet the maddest, merriest alligator ever. Fun to make; fill with old fabric, nylons. Newest hit!

Let them explain. ... Gordon K. - Picture our last dinner party. There we sat, awaiting the Smiths who had been invited to join us and another couple. They'd accepted, and all was ready while we kept the hot things on a low flame, and the cold things in the refrigerator. No phone call came to explain. No answer when we tried their number. After an hour we sat down and ate. But to this day we don't know what happened. I don't want to go through that sort of thing again. Some day we can track them down and talk it over. But for the er the Smiths aren't a bad sort at all. Inviting them to) the new party is the best way ' to elicit the full story of what happened lo flatten the last one. Suppose it happens that they wrote out a detailed saga, gave it to someone to mail who didn't? Suppose they rang the bell of the wrong apartment, an empty one, and left a note under the door asking the K.'s what hap pened? Real friends bend over backwards to dredge up plausible interpretations of puzzling conduct. Olive is try ing to. Gordon should hava fun putting his hypotheses instead of his rancor to worlt on the mystery. Haven't we all dear, but maddening, pals who invari ably arrive at the wrong hour, new party we plan, I say leave even the wrong day? Isn't there always a dizzy pair" who get lost, a few towns down the line? Once these are "lyped," we take special pains to write directions out very plain, underline the tricky parts, check on wheth er all's clear. We go to great pains to maintain the old ties, even when they give signs o senility. How much more important is il to coddle first-offenders like the Smiths. At present they appear at fault. Under kindly questioning, they may reveal that a misunderstand ing or an emergency caused the black-out as to the invi tation. Send the bid, Olive. You have nothing to lose but leftover pudding, perhaps, and a chance to gain both an inter esting account of what went awry last time and a deeper friendship with the Smiths. them out. . Olive K. - The Smiths haven't communicated with us since last month's fiasco, and Gor don won't let me get in touch with them. His pride is hurt. But I say that with such old friends we should give them the benefit of the doubt and assume that there's a very good reason for the no-show behavior. We're planning a bigger party for next month, a group of friends who have known each other for 25 years al least. The Smiths have al ways been included in this circle. Their absence will be conspicuous and will look like a break-up in the old crowd. I want to give them another chance. The Council - What's the score for Ihc Smiths? If last time was the first time for such cavalier treatment of their host, we say forgive it even if you can't forget the overdone roast and the defeated melted ice cubes and try again. But if, through carelessness and inconsider ateness, they make a practice of taking invitations lightly, backing out for "something better," omitting apology or notice or explanation well, then, treat them in kind by skipping over them on that old list.
