MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 22. 1962 Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF- ABRAHAM LINCOLN liked to tell about a pernickety horse owned by a neighbor in Springfield, 111. The neighbor was riding it down the main street one morning when without warning mm the nag began kicking tS ftf vigorously, and got his , yf hind hoof tangled in the left stirrup. Lincoln's neighbor saw what was happening and hastily declared, "Daw gone, if you're gittin' on, I'm gittin off!" 4 a When 9-year-old Tricia (volunteered to check hats and coats at her parents' anniversary reception, they indulgently accepted her offer. Unobserved, she then sequestered a china saucer from the pantiy, put a quarter in it, and left it on a table next to the coat closet. When the party was over, the parents were astonished to dis cover their daughter counting the profits something over eleven dollars! In New London, Conn,, they're telling about the near-sighted whale who fell in love with a U.S. submarine and followed it clear around the world. Every time the sub fired a torpedo, the proud whale passed out cigars. C by Beaaett Cert Distributed by King Featurei Syadicatt In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS From Moscow: Premier Khrushchev this week painted a bright picture of the Soviet economy before a meeting of the Communist party central committee. His speech took five and a half hours, and in the course nt it he indicaled his belief that the Soviet citizen never had it so good. riROM Washington: Personal income climbed $2 1 BILLION last month to a record annual rate of $446.6 billion. The gain was the larg est since April, bringing the total income of individuals to a rate 5 per cent above that of a year ago. ITMMMMMMMM. " If we take the word of the politicians for it, we are living in what Voltaire called in his Candide "this best of all worlds." So we have nothing to worry about. w 1TH that out of the way, let's get back to Oregon --where, at the recent elec tion, some rather startling sums were spent in an effort to influence the choice of a U.S. Senator. With the figures presum ably all in. it appears that the cost of the campaign to re elect Senator Morse came to the somewhat startling total of $218,961. When we add to that the $132,322 reported as having been spent by Senator Morse's Republican opponent, Sig Unander, we get a total of $351,288. That's a lot of money to be spent to influence the vote for U.S. Senator in a state the size of Oregon. LOOKING AHEAD Westerly, R. I. - UTD - The Westerly Republican town committee Wednesday an nounced plans for the liltit elections. Rhode Island's gub ernatorial race of last Nov. 6 still has to be decided. Closed-Circuit TV Show Slated on Eugene Campus A 5 I wish to thank the people of Jackson County for their overwhelming support on the recent general election. I will exert every effort to merit this confidence. 1 want to especially thank those of you who worked so hard to make my campaign successful. To all of you I shall be forever grateful. L. W. "Lynn" Newbry State Senator Jackson County Pel Pol. Arlv., Newbry for State Sen. Committee. ET'S put it this way: " The salary of a U.S. Sen ator is $22,500 a year. The term of a Senator is six years. During his six-year term, a U.S. Senator receives a total of $135,000. Which is to say: In this year's campaign in Oregon, Senator Morse spent $83,061 MORE than he will receive in salary during the six years of the term for which he has just been elected. A ND rv When we add to the $218,061 spent in behalf of Senator Morse the $132,322 reported as having been spent in behalf of Senator Morse's Republican opponent, S i g Unander, we get a total of $351,283 which is TWO AND A HALF TIMES the total salary received by a U.S. Senator during the entire six years of his term. To most of us, that just doesn't seem to make sense. Many Government Jobs in 60 Fields Said Available French Fishermen Protest Russians Le Havre, France -(UPfi-Sixly French trawlers abandoned herring fishing grounds off Calais Wednesday to protest the arrival of 150 Russian trawlers, according to reports here. Spokesmen for the owners said the French fishing boats were moving in on large schools of herring when the Russian vessels showed up. Russian fishing methods were likely to disperse the fish, the spokesmen quoted the French fishermen as saying. Eugene - There will be ap-' proximately 12,000 govern-1 mental job openings in 60 dif-l ferent fields for college grariu-1 ates next year, and a "quest for quality" to fill them, is currently being conducted in ' America's colleges and uni versities, i Robert F. Mello, director of college relations and recruit- j ment for the U.S. civil serv ice commission at Washington, DC, was in Eugene this week talking to faculty and staff members at the University of Oregon. He stressed the need for providing college students with a better understanding of governmental services, espc-1 cially in the early phases of their college education, so i they may prepare themselves for the career they want. Better College Quality "If we are going to get a better quality from colleges, they must have an input of un derstanding," he said. There fore, "we are trying to get a better understanding of the as pects of government service among faculty and students." Technology is moving at such a rapid pace, that occu pational changes are taking place in government, he said. Chemists, biologists and ac countants are used in govern ment more now than ever be fore. In fact, he said, the gov ernment is the largest single employer in each of these fields. "The philosophy of recruit ing (qualilien worKcrs) nas got to change, the same as our technology docs," he said. Walter Ward of Seattle, one of the 10 regional "recruiters" accompanied Mello to the uni versity. The two were lunch eon guests of President Arthur S. Flcmming, deans of the professional schools and de partment heads at the university.
