Mankind has achieved four milestones in the art of communications. The time, we believe, is ripe for achievement of a fifth. The first milestone was l'eached in some dim, prehistoric time that cannot be given a date, but it most probably occurred between 100,000 and 1,000,000 years ago. It began when one living being uttered a grunt or a yell, and it was under stood to mean something by another being. It was the beginning of language. From the first sounds of fear or danger or endearment or hunger or pain, slowly there arose new sounds, which, by common consent and with out conscious, intelligent deliberation, came to mean other more subtle things. The concepts of here and there, up and down, near and far, began to emerge, AT FIRST these sound-symbols, these proto words, would have been sufficient, being ut tered more as ejaculations than as meaningful attempts to convey coherent messages. But once the use of words became common, the process of stringing them into more complex thoughts began to occur. And the process fed up on itself, for as more complex and sophisticated messages became possible, new words became necessary, and were invented or improvised. But the time this had happened long enough and frequently enough, language the ability of one man to express his thoughts to another had been achieved. How lone this process had taken, or how long it took to reach the second milestone, can only be speculated. THE second milestone, velopment of the written word. Apparently it began after the tribes had estab lished a viable agriculture, and thus were able to settle in cities, rather than leading a wholly noma dic existence. This congregating of men together, coupled with adequate shelter, a more stable economy, increased leisure time, and the need to trade and to institute forms of government, pro vided both the necessity and the opportunity for the development of a form of commuication more permanent than the spoken word.; not only more permanent, but also transportable, so that men could talk to other men At first written language was primitive, both in materials and in execution. Bits of clay, inscrib ed with the magic markings, were dried and hard ened. Soon stone was being inscribed, and papy rus and parchment being written on with ink. A FTER a period of some 7,000 or 8,000 years, "and after further refinements and improve ments, the time was ripe for the third milestone. This was achieved by Johann Gutenberg, who experimented with carving- letters backward on little blocks of wood so designed that they could be arranged into words and sentences, smeared with ink, and then used to impress the words and sentences on paper not only one sheet of paper, but many, time after time. This device so simple m retrospect created a revolution, one which only could man now conmninciate with others at a distance, not only with others at a future time ; now for the first time he could communicate with hundreds and thousands at once, where as be fore he was limited to one or two or a dozen. THE weapon of the written word had become o mnja u-nonmi It iruilrl 1m ivinlilml lw ormm drels as well as by geniuses; by kings and popes as well as by poets; by fools and wise men. And it opened the world of reading to all; no longer was it limited to a small elite. Today all printing, despite improvements and mechanization, is directly descended from Johann Gutenberg's little wooden blocks. From the invention of printing to the fourth milestone was only about 100 years, whereas the earlier leaps forward had been separated by only thousands of years. "THE telegraph, the telephone-and the radio all were invented within the past 120 years. They have been expanded and developed into televi sion, teletypewriters, facsimile, and other modern-day miracles of electronic communication. Today we bounce television images from man made satellites, something utterly incomprehensi ble only a few short decades ago. The fourth milestone was the use of electrons in comnumciations, which permitted man to send his thoughts with the speed of light. Is there, will there be, a fifth milestone? If so, what form it will it take? XH can only speculate. Could it be the adop tion of a universal language, to make all men understandable to each other? Could it be im portant advances in the infant art-cum-seience of semantics, so that men, by communicating prc iesely as well as rapidly, may help erase many of his causes for friction and misunderstanding? Could it be improved understanding of the I processes of teaching and learning, thus again increasing ine quality ot communications; Could it be something else, already with us but as yet unrecognized? Man slowly learned to talk. He learned to mark down his thoughts, lie learned to dissemin ate them widely. And he learned to transmit them with the speed of light. Today he is readv, lomr nasi readv. alas, for the next step in the history of communications the step which will be taken when eoitinninciation means not only the exchange of information, but also the exchange of understanding and of love and of respect.

The letters p.inted in this column do not necessarily represent tht views of tha oaper; In fact the contrary is often the case. Who? Who? Who? To the Editor: Everybody in America should read the story of Alger Hiss in the Novem ber Reader's Digest. For here, as told by former Vice Presi dent Nixon, is living proof that a traitor can climb to some of the most influential positions in our government. Hiss, a powerful, top State De partment functionary, a top adviser to President Roose velt, and one of the head men in setting up the United Na tions, was identified by former Communist party member Whlltaker Chambers and Na thaniel Wcyl before Congres sional committees as a mem her of the Ware cell of the Community party; with Cham bers furnishing absolute proof by documents and micro-film that Hiss was deeply involved in espionage against the U.S. government. This revelation slaggcred America in 1948. But what about today, in 1962? Do we have any "Alger Hisses" in our government today? The best way to answer that ques tion is to ask some more. Who is behind the un-American and treasonable censorship and muzzling of the military? Who promoted Wicland of the State Department for his work in bringing Castro to power? Why are U.S. Reds allowed to get away without registering in accordance with the law and Supreme Court decision? Whose hidden hands manipu lated the selling of our jet bombers lo Communist Tito for 10 cents on the dollar, then trained his pilots at our Texas air bases to fly them? Who promised aid to the re volting Hungarians then dou ble crossed them? And who sabotaged the arrangements made by Spain to help these poor people fighling for their lives and freedom? Who per mitted models of our nucbar submarines to be sent to Rus sia? Who Is behind weakening our Air Force by slopping pro duction of our bombers? Who is behind brainwashing the American people that in event of war we cannot win - and must surrender? Who is it in doctrinating our troops with a "no-win policy"? Who is be hind the world wide move ment to purge our defense forces of right wing officers and men? Who is it that wrote the "Arms Control and Dis armament Act" which is now law and will eventually dis arm every American soldier and every American civilian? Who wrote the treaty de scribed in the State Depart ment document 7277 which will turn all our nuclear weapons, conventional weap ons, our Army and our Navy, and our Air Force over to the United Nations? Are there any "Alger Hiss es" in our government today? Most right wingers believe that Alger Hiss wouldn't even make a patch on the seat of the pants of the supor-salxi-tagers who are working havoc in our nation, now, in liltij.

Route 2, Box 76B Jacksonville, Ore. Tell tht Ptoplt To the Editor: Why, oh why, can't our county offi cials leh' the people ahead of time, what they are planning on doing. Why, may I ask, do they refrain from a discussion with interested citizens in re gard to their plans? When I was a candidate for county commissioner last spring I stated that it was my intention that the residents of our fair county should be fully informed as to what the court was considering and had decided to do, if I were elected. For example: I note the alignment slakes for the Fish lake road east of the end of pavement follow the same old cow trail it has followed for more than 32 years. The roule for this road should be changed to the East side of Willow Creek lake and on up the West Branch of Wil low creek to Willow Prairie to connect with the present Fish Lake road (and the Win nemucca to the Sea highway). This would much belter serve the traveling public. True, the vast majority of the area through which (his re-rouled Fish Lake road has been cut over ralhcr severely by the loggers but that is the only objection I have thus for been able to come up with in dis cussing the subject with oth ers. The gradient is much flatter (more level) than the present route. If I couldn't survey a road to benefit the public to a greater extent I'd hide my head. I sincerely hope thai we, the people, can get better in formation in the future, and I thank you. Floyd R. McCabe Mt. Pitt Star route Butte FalLs, Ore. "How's business?

OREGON Chinese Attack on India Severe Blow To Nation's Struggle By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign News Analyst While Indian Premier Ja waharlal Nehru clings wist fully to the hope that some. how the So viet Union will get the Red Chinese off his back, he also is be ing forced to the more un pleasant view that his strug gle with the L Aid Newiom Chinese most likely will continue for years. This in turn means a severe Matter of Fact lei New York Herald THE PAUSE Washington - The Chinese Communist cease-fire on the Indian border is being more diversely in- ed, contra- ly ed. than any ma jor develop ment of t h e last 16 years. To the list of explana tions already Alsnp offered, one more is worth adding, because it is favored by the ablest American ex perls on the affairs of the Communist bloc. These men suspect that the Soviets stopped the Chinese dead in their tracks, by threatening to withhold the Russian petrol eum deliveries on which China still very heavily de pends. As yet, there is not a shred of factual evidence to support this theory, or any of the oth er prevalent theories either, for that matter. The theory of the Soviet experts is interest ing, nonetheless-all the more so because of the marked re semblance between the strange cease-fire on the Indi an border and the cease-fire at Quemoy in 1958, which the Russians certainly forced on the Chinese. WHATEVER produced the Indian cease-fire, it com pletes what may be called the post-Cuba pause. To all intents and purposes, the Cuban af fair itself has now been liqui dated. The oratory at the UN still has to be got through, but that seems likely to be even more inconsequential than most UN oratory. What has not been liqui dated, however, is the politi cal after-effect of the Cuban affair. The after-effect has been especially powerful, as might have been expected, in the Communist half of the world. In recent days, its pow er has been demonstrated at the Hungarian Communist Party Congress in Budapest. Here the scenes of the Bul garian party meeting in Sofia have been replayed, in the manner of an angry repeat of an angry Punch - and - Judy show. A vicious attack on the "revisionist" policies of Nikita S. Khrushchev was delivered by the Chinese delegate. Wu Hsiuchuan. An even more vi ciou reply was made by the Hungarian party boss, Janos Kadar. The Chinese then walked out. The Congress is likely to end with further downgrading of potentially pro-Chinese Hungarian "Sla iinists." ANOTHER repeat of the Punch-and-Judy show is to be expected soon at the Czech Party Congress in Prague, where the official par ly paper, Rude Pravo. has just come down hard on Khru shchev's side in the Sino-So-vicl row. Here there may be considerable added drama, if there is any substance to the persistent reports from War saw of ail oncoming thorough purge of Stalinists in the ob stinately Slalinst Czech party. In Moscow, meanwhile, the Central Committee meeting has ended with a significant FAUOUT SHELTERS WE BJiL9 'EM- ToUSTOU'ENl! t .y J terpret i ' , U more con if ml tradictori rl f- 51 ex pi a i n That's the trouble. . very. vtty. very jood setback for the Indian econ omy already facing severe difficulties. In the fiscal year ending June 30, India received $727 million in U.S. aid for an over-all total of around $4 billion. Even with massive aid from the United States and else where, it was estimated it would be at least 10 more years before India could be come self-sufficient. As a nation of 400 million attempting a leap from a backward agricultural ccon amy to full industrialization. By Joseph Alsop Tribune Syndicate decision lo cut heavy industri al investment in favor of in vestments in agriculture, and to reorganize the whole econ omy on lines proposed by Khrushchev. There was every indication that Khrushchev was com pletely in the saddle at this meeting, with no one to chal lenge him from any quarter. It remains to be seen whether Khrushchev in the saddle means an eventual open break between Moscow and Peking. That may come, but no one knows. What is apparent is that Khrushchev, with his home base secure, is hard at work picking up the post Cuba pieces all over the rest of the Communist world. The first stage of this proc ess is the political tidy-up that is now in progress. Precisely because a setback has been ex perienced, dissidence can no longer be tolerated. Hence, dissidents, open and potential, are being eliminated, in the European satellite parties first of aii. Where this is possible, one may expect other Com munist parties to be briskly tidied up later on. Even the Soviet party leadership may not be immune, over the long run. ' yHAT to do about China, is ' ' is clearly the central prob lem of this first stage. By the same token, what to do about Berlin is likely to be the cen tral problem of the second stage, in which Khrushchev wiii have lo decide how to ad just the broad lines of Soviet foreign policy in the light of the Cuban experience. The Berlin decision may well be affected by the de cision on China. For if Khru shchev dares to react to Pe king's extreme provocations by an open break with the Chinese comrades, he may also dare, perhaps, to depart rather radically from other rigid attitudes of the past. The entire process, of polit ical tidying within the bloc and policy-adjustment beyond the bloc's borders, will not and cannot be swiftly com pleted. The present pause may therefore be expected to en dure, with luck, for two, or three, or even four months. But in January. February, or Marc h, President Kennedy and the other Western leaders will have lo be ready for the end of the pause. At that time, Khrushchev will have to move, cither to wards serious co-exislcncc or renewed belligerence. He can not stay indefinitely where he is now, or on dead center; but none can now be sure which way he will go. Last-Minute Talks Seek To Avert Walkout Burbank.

But with each step for word also came new diffi culties. New, expensive factories ran below capacity because of shortage of electric power, railway cars and coal. Government operations sup posed to turn in a profit to finance new projects failed to return a profit. Training of new managers and technicians lagged behind the economic cevelopmcnt. Just how much the Red China conflict further will delay Indian self-sufficiency is a matter still to be deter mined, but it must be meas ured in years. If there is a bright side, it us this: The Indian population is re ported united now as it never has been before.

This is a case wher- we are damned if we do and damned if we don't. We assist a "neu tral' " country, I '.ia, wlv-h for years in fact or in spirit has joined our Communist en emies in biting at us and ob-st-ucting o'"- poli.ics. A' ' in the pucess we outrage one of our most faithful allies in the Far East, Pakistan. Probably 'here is -n cle ment of propaganda in the current threats of Pakistan to pull away from us altogether and herself to become "neu tralist." But such a course, however unwise, would be humanly understandable. IjtOR years. Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru of In dia, with the self-righteous ar rogance that has become his international trademark, has refused any fair settlement of India's border quarrels with Pakistan. For years, Pakistan has been in fear, juslificd or not, that this more powerful neigh bor, India, would one day act to overrun her territory and vital interests as "peace-loving India" has already overrun Portuguese territory and in terests in the small colony of Goa. Now Pakistan is in fear, again justified or not. thai the weapons we now send lo In dia to resist Chinese aggres sion will later be turned against Pakistan herself. Yet we go on giving these weap ons to India for the most compelling of all reasons because we must. AS LEADER of the world's anti-Communist forces, we cannot leave unchallenged any major Communist aggression anywhere. Certainly we could not let it go unchallenged in so vast and critical an area as India. For anything ap proaching lotal Communist success there might so em bolden Ihe Chinese as to throw the whole of Asia, and pos sibly the world, into war. It is only fair, therefore, to say that there is no ration al or responsible alternative , for our present military aid towing to "neutralism" any where in the world. j Given an open and firm stance long ago against Nch- I ru's hypocrisy, hy Hie Kenne- I dy administration or by the 1 Eisenhower administration be fore it. and we should not to- i day be faced with the neees-i sity of humiliating a valued ! ally lo support an almost in- ! supportable "neutralist'' who has made a profession of bit- j ing the hand that has fed him.

There never was any valid reason to sup pose thl lll spite would happen, tor of official India's bootluknu' of international communism, the Indian peo ple are at heart on the side of freedom. of politicians for district pork barrels. Greater attention will be paid to development of. such industries as coal, steel., transportation and electric power. For Nehru it was a tremen dous break with the past when he was forced to ask the United States for military aid. It was an admission that India could not defend itself alone and that the attempt to balance herself between the great powers had failed. Even as Nehru has thanked the United States for under standing his continuing ef forts toward non-alignment, his eyes have been upon the Soviet Union and upon theo retical Soviet aid rather than aid already received. Having already bun tie." ceived by Red China, j,e ap pears not to take into consid eration the possibility that Soviet Union could deceive him, too. S. White There is now a compelling necessily to rid this and fu ture administrations of the kind of minds which p:eler the pretentious piety of a weak Nehru to the honcsl candor of a strong Ayub Khan of Pakistan. We should never try to dom inate those countries to which we give assistance. But cqual-'-ly we should never again per mit any one of them to domi nate our own policies to the point where our friends are kicked for their pains and those who have thwarted our international purposes are re warded for the harm they have done us. Strictly Personal By Sydney J. Harris (c- Field Enterprises Inc. FASTEST WAY THROUGH Perhaps the most difficult lesson lo learn in growing up is this that it's easier to do a thing right than to do it over. Most of. us learn this only the hard ; waywhen we have stumbled and t r i p p ed our way into adulthood. Robert Frost Hams once express ed it his his usual admirable brevity and simplicity, when he wrote in a poem: "The fast est way out is through." Un til we learn better, most of us try to go around, to take short cuts that turn to be long cuts, to trim and turn and twist until we have expend ed more efforl, with less re sults, than in going through. The most homely and strik ing example of this painful truth was borne upon me the other night when I volunteer ed for the new baby's lale feeding. She awakened, as pre dicted, about 3 a.m., crying for milk. When I was a new father, many years ago, I tried to make this chore as brief as possible indeed, I tried to do it without opening my -eyes. I would get a bottle. heBt it, feed the baby, and flip it back into bed as quickly as possible, and then climb back into my own. But it never worked. Fiva or ten minutes later, the baby would be whimpcrinrj -again. It wanted more milk. It needed lo be burped. It called for a change. So I had to get up out of bed again and groggily perform theso operations sometimes two two or three times. Now I have learned that the f a si t s t way out is through. I get up once, and once only. I make sure she has all the milk she wants. And when I put her down, she is down for the nigh!. So am I. 1 This more laborious proce dure actually takes half the j time and energy of popping up again, as I used to do. Tiie lone I cut is really a short cut: it i reminds me that thorough" and "through" come from the ; same root-word. ! But it is not an easy lesson ; to learn, even for an adult, and much less for a child. The : temptation is ever present to cut corners, (o make do, to i give a lick and a promise. We suffer from the perpetual r!e ! lusion that in this wav we arc ! making life easy for ourselves., (when in truth we are making j it harder. It is all part of mankind's I uncrasin mirst to find r,!. lire and to escane n.nn And the last piece of wisdom win is that pain is an inevi table part of the price tvt) we have to pay for pleasure. 1
