Next year Oregonians will face a lest the like of which has not confronted them before." This quotation appeared in the East Oregon ian. It was written by a man who knows what he's talking about, Editor J. W. Forrester Jr., who also serves as a member of the State Board of Higher Education, and has long been interested in prob lems of education. The two key questions, Forrester says, are these : "How much education do Oregonians want to provide beyond high school for their young men and women? To what extent do they want quality of that education to be These two broad questions can be broken down into a number of COR INSTANCE: RVinnlrl uro ottnrrmr tn tion for every child able school? Or should we limit college and university enrollment? If so, how? or college entrance tests; What kind of higher tempt to provide? The best, in all categories, and at the graduate as well as undergraduate levels? Or will we have to skimp somewhere, and re quire our very ablest youngsters to go elsewhere to complete their educations? What about college locations? Do' we have enough now? Or should we attempt to bring col lege education closer to everyone's back door? AND THIS doesn't include the new community nnllrirrn rii'nfn'Qitl A cimilur carina nt rmna. tions can be asked about How many should we should the state continue to furnish much of the money for them? How should they be directed academically, or vocationally, or a mixture of both? Should they be integrated with the state sys tem of higher education, or should they continue to be creatures of the local area and the state de partment of education? How far should they go in providing a post high school education? And should their gradu ates be admitted on an equal footing to institu tions of the state system of higher education ; THE ANSWERS to some of these questions will depend on the educational philosophy of the state's educators and people. But, it is sad to state, the answers to most of them will be dictated by one thing money, and how much of it we are willing to spend to achieve excellence in education. If we maintain our educational standards at the SAME LEVEL as they are now, and admit the SAME PROPORTION of high school grad uates as formerly, we're going to have to pay the piper to the tune of tens of millions of dollars more than we are now, simply because of rising costs and the increasing number of students. THE FACT is, however, that those who care about education want the standards raised. At the same time there is every indication that a higher percentage of high school graduates will want to attend college or university. Can we deny either the elevation of stand ards, or the desire for an education? If we answer "no" to either or both of these, we must face the fact that taxes will have to go higher. It isn't going to be an 19M legislature. E. A. Logging Some months ago in this column we were sharply critical of the desolate scene created by logging along the road up Heaver creek, off the Applegate road above McKee bridge. It was, as we said, frankly a mess, and some one had made a mistake in laying out the show. Now it is our pleasure to report, after a trip there in recent days, that one of the best cleanup jobs we have ever seen in a logged off area has been completed. It is not, obviously, still the timbered roadside beauty that it once was, but shows what can be accomplished in restoring ugly seal's when intel ligence and skill are applied to the job E.A. Disaster. If some disaster were to kill all the inhabitants of Medford, Central Point, Phoenix and Gold Hill, it would make black headlines the world around. If some mysterious ailment were to wipe them out over a period of a year, the same kind of headlines would be printed. That is the approximate number of residents of the United States who were killed in traffic accidents during the first nine months of W2.

Right To Hunt To the Editor: Hunters and fisherman, you are just about to be priced out of the game. If you fished and hunted all types of game this year you paid $16.50 in licenses. Next year you will pay $26.50. Subtle discrimination against the poor. I for one cannot afford this God given right of hunting and fishing. Now is the time to put a stop to tliis before it becomes a game that only the rich can play at. If they do raise the fee there will be poaching by many that would otherwise be law abiding. The license itself does not lend any flavor to fish and game. The state does not have enough jails to hold all of the people of lesser means. I ad vise the powers that be to lay off. If hunters get so thick that they stand shoulder to shoulder, I want the right to be one of them. George Brown, Box 259, Prospect, Ore. UNICEF Comment To the Editor: Ester Robin son, when speaking for the United Nations (MT 11-18-62), demonstrates the admirable virtue of charity in being concerned for needy people. It is hoped, however, her natural concern (shared by most rea sonable people), docs not con tinue to lead her to rail, with a noticeable lack of restraint and prudence, against those who refuse to believe commu nist nations, upon receiving UNICEF funds, will in turn demonstrate the same virtue of charity practiced by those who contributed to the Hal loween fund in the first place. The truly surprising thing about Ester Robinson's letter was her admitting that be cause ol some cun, inonun vague comment about "not being interested in helping communists'," people, or some one, took it upon thcmself to investigate' the situations and 'tracked" a few instances (of refusal to contribute), to the. source of Freedom Center In Portland; and then drawing the conclusion that virtually all who refuse to contribute to the Halloween fund are vic tims of organizations who seem (to some UN hopefuls), to misrepresent and pervert truth. Docs the scope of UNICEF alwavs include this kind of extraordinary, rather ques tionable activity'.' Robert J. Howard, 7 HI! Bookman St., Medford.

For humbly realizing my self to be a minute speck of creation, yet feeling proud of the immensity of it; of the privilege of being part of all there is. I am grateful that I am me and you are you; that the wise and deciding hand of the Creator patterned each and every wonder of nature into His unparalleled design. Yes -. I am thankful; eter nally thankful to love and accept and to cherish all things in which there are to believe. But, above all, I thank God for allowing me the one un believable miracle; His trust in my worthiness to be. G. B.

I have also read the special minority report writ ten by Sen. Strom Thurmond. This reading has been most informative in many respects. I strongly urge every loyal and patriotic citizen to read this report. It can be had by writing any of these senators, Wayne Morse, Strom Thur mond or John Slennis. Senate Office Building, Washington, DC. It will also be in our library. From the report I learned that the President's open in sult and down grading of General Walker was not be cause of his supposedly Birch He pro-blue program. The re port of the committee slates: "It is well, however, to com iiiciu on me popular miscon - ' ception that General Walker I was disciplined because of his ment on the popular miscon troop indoctrination activities:"' ,j,c' ",lm i, ,-nn.-tir,n u-ilh lh 'Pr.

As an interim footnote of some signifi cance, howev Alsnp er, It is worth recording that the divisions in the Commun ist bloc have been a major topic in all the long and anx ious meetings of the leaders of the American government in recent days. It may seem odd for Amer ican policy-makers to be con cerned about the Communist bosses' envenomed rows with one another. Yet this has been unavoidable. The point is that the Chinese Communists have been borrowing a leaf from quency declined'." The charges against him were made by the Over Seas Weekly (called by the soldiers "Over Sexed Weekly") be cause he wished to ban it from the newsstands in the PX's in his command. This paper is listed as subversive in the Pentagon. Furthermore its moral influence is very bad. A commander is respon sible not only for the physical welfare of his troops but also for their moral safeguarding. Hence he is legally empower ed to banish any publication he considers objectionable. Yet in spite of all these facts he was prevented from doing his plain duty by the President and the State De partment. One can not but ask who wields this evil influence in Washington? While the investigation was being made by General Brown, General Walker was sent to Heidelberg to fill a position vacated by a colonel, which was not a suitable as signment for a two-star gen eral. After the investigation he was assigned to Hawaii as Deputy for Operations and Training in Headquarters, U.S. Army Pacific. This was a better assignment than that held in Europe. But he re signed in order to be free to tell the American people what is happening in high places in government which he could not do if in uniform. Could it be that this assign ment was in the nature of a bribe? Anna M. Streed 36 North Peach st. Medford.

The camel is the only machine that can convert bitter but green the book of Sen. Barry Gold water. In other words, they have been seeking to put Niki ta S. Khrushchev on the spot politically, for pursuing a "no win'" policy in Cuba. V IN ADDITION to mocking Khrushchev for being "scared stiff," and for "be traying" the sacred Commun ist cause, the Chinese have been trying to make trouble between Khrushchev and Fi del Castro. Besides lauding Castro to the skies, they have repeatedly hinted that ' he would be just as well off with out his link to the Soviets. These propaganda statements have also been reinforced, ac cording to report, by the direct and active secret intervention of the Chinese mission in Ha vana. The Chinese have nothing whatever to offer Castro, of course except for moral support, which will feed, clothe, and arm no troops at all. It is quite possible, nonethe less, that their Havana trouble-making has had some suc cess. In the great Sino-Soviet con frontations in Moscow, some Latin American Communists were among the small minor ity supporting the Chinese. There is reason to believe that the Cuban Communists would also have followed the Chinese line in these earlier debates if their material dependence on Soviet aid had not been so great. In Havana, therefore, the Chinese have at least had sympathetic listeners. . YET THE POINT of primary concern for the U.S. policy-makers has not been the effect of the Chinese interven tion in Havana. It has been, rather, the impact in Moscow of the vicious Chinese attack on the Soviet leadership in general and Khrushchev in particular. The question has had to be asked, in fact, whether the ideological barrage from Pek ing was not limiting Khrush chev's ability to carry out his complete Cuban bargain with President Kennedy. Pending the answer to that crucial question (which may be forth coming before this sees print) it is worth asking what the Chinese motives are in this bi zarre but dangerous business. One motive, very evidently, is to try by all means to top ple Khrushchev and other So viet leaders who think as he does from their present seats of power. Rightly or wrongly wrongly, if the American experts are correct the Chin ese clearly believe that there are powerful elements in the Soviet Union, probably center ing in the armed forces, that can still be stimulated to move against Khrushchev. Yet one cannot stop there, by any means. Suppose that the American experts are in error, and that elements capa ble of toppling Khrushchev really exist in Moscow. If so, these unidentified Soviet per sonages to whom the Chinese are appealing, must logically believe in the nuclear confron tation with the U.S. which the Chinese have been denouncing Khrushchev for avoiding. TN PLAIN words, the Chin- ese attacks on Khrushchev add up to nothing more or less than a persistent appeal for an immediate nuclear confronta tion, plus an effort to secure general Communist support for such a confrontation. The conclusion is unavoidable, in fact, that the Chinese Com munist leadership .today has reached the lunatic stage of actively desiring an H-bomb war. There are reasons for this horrifying state of mind in Peking. One reason, beyond much doubt, is simple ignor ance of modern weaponry and its meaning. Another and more important reason, again beyond much doubt, is the melancholy and precarious in ternal situation of China. For leaders who have brought (heir own country to the very brink of ruin, reducing the rest of the world to ruins mav have some attraction. To be sure, Mao Tse-tung and his colleagues have not lost their cunning. It was cun ning of them to thrust a bay. onet into the mush to which birthdays through a series of writer's years. Thus he came to appreciate, as above, why green is sacred. Green accord ingly was the favorite for tur bans of returned pilgrims. This, to indicate they had been to Mecca. Bearded ones dyed whiskers green. Perhaps the most satisfac tion we Americans can have as to our influence in Moslem lands is that American Know How, developing Arabian oil wells, has cut camel freights PS per cent. Hinterland folks, who once tied camel teats for milk as above, can now afford dates for food.

Washington Report By William (ei United Feature Syndicate DEGREE OF CHEERFULNESS Washington It has, what with one thing and another, been a dark autumn thus far. but it is now possible to see a certain de gree of cheer fulness break ing through. Nearly all over the free world and also o v e r a good deal of that hitherto "neutral'' world which will never be quite so "neutral" again realism is replacing woolly unrealism in the cold war. Men are throwing away their empty dream of life without risk and of victory over international Commu nism without sacrifice or dan ger. Can-do is replacing can't do as the basis of cold war policy. The honorable advo cacy of honorable power is coming into international fashion again in the west and has, perforce, been ac cepted in the non-Communist east as well, In the case of erstwhile "neutralist" India. The non-communist nations are at last acknowledging the responsibilities of leadership. A terrible slide away from those responsibilities among the decent countries a slide very similar to the one in the '30s, which permitted Hitler ism to rise in all its horror and peril has clearly now been arrested. This is the supreme new fact of our pres ent days. PRESIDENT Kennedy's de cision not to let the Soviet Union get away with it any more in Castro Cuba a decision taken alone because others in the west would have higgled and "negotiated" has not merely helped restore the position in this hemis phere. It has also actually produced more unity among the very western allies who were not consulted. For they now grasp the hard truth that mere "negotiation" is not enough in each and every pos sible occasion; that where vital interests are vitally chal lenged we must be ready to do as well as to talk. In France, the symbol of this policy of being prepared to do as well as to talk. Presi dent Charles De Gaulle, has just won monumental vic tories in elections which leave him an even stronger leader than before. In West Germany, and not withstanding the present do mestic difficulties of his gov ernment, Chancellor Konrad Adenauer, another advocate of doing - plus talking, has come more willingly into the western concert than ever be fore. THOUGH tragedy hovers over me uriem, it is mixed with great hope. Though the Chinese Commu nist invasion of India is brutally costly in Indian dead, the blazing light it puts on the folly of Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru's military unpreparedness brings posi tive returns. The fact has gone deeply home that Nehru's cynical playing of Communist east against free west, while ac tually favoring Communist east, has not brought India even temporary safety from the very Communist powers to which he toadied so long. Krishna Menon has reduced India's defenses, rather than to undertake a bayonet thrust at this time into other, more potentially profitable areas. But cunning is not always inconsistent with megaloman iac madness. And when the leaders of a major power suc- cumb to megalomania, as seems to have happened in China, this grave development needs to he carefully noted and prudently guarded against.

White The Indian people today are in no mood to hear about "neutralism." When they re ject for good this soft and monstrously irresponsible doc trine, as they surely will be fore this affair is over, w shall see the end of an era of fatal nonsense which followed World War II. THIS, brought up to date, was just the kind of non sense that led to the birth of Hitler the notion that be cause power evilly used brings evil results, power it self is always to be shunned. It was said by one-book in tellectuals that there wasn't much difference between Hit ler and Chamberlain England. Until recently, much the same was said by the same kind of people of the United States and the Soviet Union that, after all, both had immenss nuclear power and so both, must be more or less evil in purpose. The incredible silliness of this theory is, under provi dence, dying now before it has been necessary to spend millions of lives as it was" before to show its intel lectual rubbishness and moral cowardice.

PERSONAL PREJUDICES The alcoholism of t h rich consists in compulsive, traveling; the poor man can alter his environment only internally, by narcotising himself through liquorl while the more affluent are able to alter their environ ment externally, by con stantly traveling for no pur pose except release from reality. Most moralists think they ars following "God's will" but what they are really saying, in their strictures to society, is, "This is how God would have made the world if Hs had taken my advice." All of us suffer, in some degree, from what I call the, "delusion of magnitude"? that is, the false belief that because a thing may be good in small measure, it is even better in larger mea sure; if one vitamin pill will make up for a dietary defi ciency, then three pills at once will have us bursting with health and vitality. This is almost our national disease. Women who are taciturn and men who are garrulous have a higher proportion of the opposite sex in their na tures than the average; the) rate of verbal flow is a truer index of feminine and mascu line natures than looks, body build or mannerisms. Many people accept what they call the "inevitability" of this trend or that move ment or the other destiny, not out of any deep philoso phical conviction, but sim ply because such an atti tude frees them from lhe embarrassment of choice. A grasping man believes that everybody is greedy at heart; he could not live with himself unless he forced him self to estimate others at his own level of cupidity. (And those who do not display any of the fruits of greed, he con temptuously dism i s s e s as "fools"). The paradox of thought is that, at knowledge increas es, ignorance increases; to one using his naked eye the sky at night seems fixed and limited, the stars count table; but to an astronomer using lhe most powerful tel escope, space is infinite, gal axies innumerable, and the cosmos is a mystery con stantly receding before us. mm to' V' i
