MARCH 11. 1963 Frenetic Drivel This newspaper does not publish anonymous letters in its Communciations column. Even when signed "Name on File," the identity of the writer is known to the editor (except in those rare cases when a deliberately false signature slips by.) But below is an anonymous letter. A name was typwritten under it, but we assume the name to be false. There was no address, The major portion of it follows : Dear Editor: Well again you hit the editorial sec tion with your undying devotion for the Negro. Don't you think it's about time you devoted more time to yourself, and your own condition? The day is coming when there will be no more Catholics and no more Ncgros. We have a way to make all the intcgrationists real unhappy, and as time goes on we hope to see you as miserable as your so called friends here in the valley. Let them lake out their phones. We will always be in a position to annoy and aggravate them no end. You said once that you throw all anonymous letters in the waste basket. So do a lot of other people, but we are still there. You should do a little more investigating and be fore it's too late, stop defending the Negro and the . Catholics. Don't you worry all the Catholics and Negro lovers here in our part of this lovely valley have found things so unbelievable and as time goes on will continue to do so. There are always means to get them uncmploy- . ed, and you wait, we will get to you yet . . . Others in our circle . . have succeeded in their efforts to destroy the Negro lover and ail the Catholic followers. Don't try to shove anymore of that old hokum down our necks. Sure you have the pen, but we have our own campaigns. And you have no way of ever find ing us. We haven't failed yet in destroying your friends, and who knows the one we have been con centrating on lately may even take their own life. So Mr. Editor, if you have any compassion for your poor neglected Negro and Catholic friends, for get it. Let them all call on Kennedy. Maybe he can help. . It is terribly sad that some people are so filled with hate that they degrade themselves by put ting out this frenetic, neo-Nazi sort of drivel. . . E.A.

T'HE Negro baby born in America today re gardless of the section or state in which he is born has about one-half as much chance of com pleting high school as a white babv born in the same place on the same day one-third as much chance of completing college one-third as much chance of becoming a professional man twice as much chance of becoming unemployed about one-seventh as much chance of earning $10,000 :)er year a hie expectancy which is seven years less and the prospect of earning onlv half as much. No American who believes in the basic truth that "all men arc created equal, that they are en dowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights", can fully excuse, explain or defend the picture these statistics portray. Race discrimination hampers our economic growth by preventing the maximum development and utilization of our manpower. It hampers our world leadership by contradicting at home the message we preach abroad. It mars the atmos phere of a united and classless society in which this Nation rose to greatness. It increases the costs oi public welfare, delinquency and disorder. Above, all, is is wrong. THEREFORE, let it be clear, in our own hearts 1 and minds, that it is not merely because of the Cold War, and not merely because of the eco nomic waste of discrimination, that we are com mitted to achieving true equality of opportunity. The basic reason is because it is right. The cruel disease of discrimination knows no sectional or state boundaries. The continuing at tack on this problem must be equally broad. It must be both private and public it must be con ducted at national, state and local levels and it must include both legislative and executive action. In the last two years, more progress has been made in securing the civil rights of all Americans than in any comparable period in our history. Progress has been made through executive ac tion, litigation, persuasion and private initiative in achieving and protecting equality of oppor Unity in education, voting, transportation, em ployment, housing, government, and the enjoy ment of public accommodations.

Edwards 1541 Oregon ave. Medford, O OUR VALLEY In this beautiful Rogue River Valley, So peacefully nestled, it seems, Surrounded by towering mountains, Nourished by myriad streams. Blessed by a river of beauty, That travels its roguish way; From end to end of our valley, It makes its mad-cap way. A sight for the eye to behold! Proud nature at its best; A beautiful place to live, Till, at last, Eternal rest. The Douglas Fir, the towering Pines, Surround our lovely homes. The deer, the bear, the wildlife. Within this realm do roam. Many a year has now gone by, Since first we saw this vale; And now our thoughts grow bitter, As we unfold this sorry tale. For our valley slowly is dying, Dying from lust and greed. The human race is taking toll, What matter, there is no need. To put a blight upon us. For, with less of greed and gain, Our valley would not suffer This excruciating pain. With pain and suffocation here, We slowly will expire, Like the pre historic beast, Caught, in the vicious mire. Burners from the sawmills Belch forth their filthy smoke, While other forms of business Have furnaces to stoke. To cap the awful climax. The orchards lend a hand, With a foul and awful blackness That's a curse upon the land. It seems, with frost approaching. And the Pear trees in (he bloom, They must light the smudgy oil-pols. And give them ample room To permeate our valley; Witli putrid, vicious smoke. 11 penetrates to the very core, And makes us gag and choke. The once green lawns arc ebony black.

Tha Church in Russia To the Editor: The slate approved visit of 20 Rus sian clergymen as the guests of the hierarchy of the World Council of Churches has en gendered considerable verbal strife because of the allega tion made by some that these men are actually spies sent here to propagate Khrush chev's tranquilizer of "peace ful co existence through American pulpits. As a result there is considerable confu sion in the minds of many. This is being written to pre sent the actual status of the church in Russia. On Tuesday, May 5. 1959, Mr. Pclr S. Deriabian, for merly a major in the Russian security police (NKVD), a de fector to the West, appeared as a witness before the sub committee to investigate the administration of the Inter nal Security Act and other Internal security laws, of the committee on the judiciary of which Senator Dodd was chairman. The subject under investigation was the status of the Orthodox church in Russia. In his testimony Mr. Deriabian stated categorical ly that no man could be a priest in Russia without also being a trained agent of. the NKVD. Gen. Karpov Is head of the NKVD and he also controls the Russian Orthodox church. To be a believer and to ask people to join the church is to engage in anti Soviet activities. If a man re fuses to become a spy he can not become a priest. The present Metropolitan of Russia is Archbishop Nico- lai. At the All-Union confer ence in Moscow of the "Parti sans of Peace," he said among other villifying words: "The greedy tentacles of the over seas octopus (the United States) strive to enmesh the whole globe. Capitalist Amer ica, that fornicatrix of the resurrected Babylon, having arranged a world market, at tempts to seduce peoples, pushing them on to war. But the simple people of all coun tries draw away their eyes with repugnance from this shameless nakedness. "The overseas siren sings of 'freedom' Freedom to rob, to do violence, to kill this is their 'freedom.' "Wc shall not distribute arms to young men that they shall kill one another screams the Washington Cain: and in their wails the frenzy of the rascal mingles with t he desperation of a coward." Doesn't he out Stalin Stalin? It was this man who train ed Archbishop Nikoriim. the leader of the group now in America. What do you, the reader. Anna M StrceH ;!6 North Teach st. Medford. Loss of Freedom To the Editor: In this era, Freedom in every corner of the world has become the greatest desire of mankind.

FOX United Press International Notes from the foreign news cables: British Politics There is considerable Brit ish newspaper speculation that Prime Minister Harold Macmillan i will step down soon and call general elec tions. But insiders in London say this is not in the cards. Informed sources say they cannot see him stepping down under' any circumstances be fore the fall, or possibly next spring. Most authoritative quarters feel that Macmillan hopes to bring the political climate around to the point where his Conservative party has a better chance of win ning before he makes a move. By law, he has a deadline of the fall of 1964 to call gen eral elections, and he just might let the full time run out so the Conservatives can of our Freedom and help oth ers establish it.

We can scrap all guarantees of individual voice in our own destinies. ' This is not Progress, this is retreat, abandonment that paves the way to dictatorship and involuntary servitude, the direct opposite of the prin ciples upon which our nation is predicated. These steps lead only toward the fulfillment of Khrushchev's boast, "We will bury you. It was just such insidious steps as these that led Abra ham Lincoln to warn the na tion that if our form of gov ernment was ever overthrown it would be from within, and this is the way the Soviets plan "to bury us," not from external powers but by grad ually leading us to relinquish our freedoms one by one.

Views Will Change To the Editor: If the young women seeking employment were actually in search of work, and assuming that the older ladles were no longer employed by our local busi nessmen, could the young women then "land" a job? Webster defines a "job" as a piece of work of the small, miscellaneous kind taken as it comes from the public. From experience and ob servations with women in bus iness. 1 believe that the rea son employers retain older women is because of that "ex tra something" which they exert in their work, and which the young women arc very obviously lacking. This "extra something" is a com bination of things. Among them, a smile, a special inter est in people, a knowledge of their work, and a sense of responsibility. Young women scein to be especially self centercd, unconcerned where people arc involved, and very often nut willing to gain a thorough knowledge of their work since they feel that it is only temporary. They arc more concerned about how much they are paid than how much they cam. The old ad age. "The customer is always right" is a thing of the past with many young people. They fail to understand the term "service" and arc Insult ed if this term Is changed to "servant." When young women recog nize the fact that they are only apprentices, not masters; that they arc being paid for their service and not the styl ish clothes they wear; that the customer comes first, and that the dictionary is the only place where success comes be fore work, then they will have valid reason for stating that all of the older women have the jobs. A young woman of 18 may refer to a matron of 40 as old. Those, of us who are at, or nearing. this formidable age. ! do not relish the term "old ' Many ladies in their 60s are j not eligible for any kind of : pension, regardless of how j wonderful Social Security j m a y sound.

Working Women To the Editor: To the lady who is under the illusion that all Medford women are too elderly to work, and "They do so to escape boredom, or to buy a new car, or rug for their homes." It's hard to tell where you get this kind of information. I am afraid your knowledge has been sadly neglected. We might be getting older. We all do! But when it's time for Social Security then you don't have to worry about the aged women working. They are automatically retired. "The Middle Aged". I imag ine there are quite a few of this age-group working in of fices and stores. I fact, I know quite a few, but I assure you I hardly think they work for the reason you mention. In the place where I work, with the exception of three or four, the complete staff, each and every one, maintain the full support of their homes. Those of us who have help still have a very good reason to work. Because these wo men have the misfortune of growing old, does not mean they are less efficient. They were not old when they started. In fact, some of them began working when they fin ished school. They have been trained in their work. They have given long years of ver satile, veracious service to their employers. So, if they were' not competent and ef ficient they could not have held their positions this long. This applies to all stores I know several women who support their homes or help out to get out of debt. Don't blame their managers either: with all us married women he doesn't have the laborious task of worrying about the amorous, gbod-looking boys standing in line waiting for a date. These students you have worried about I'm sure if they have the intestinal forti tude along with their faith they will manage without too much difficulty. All they would have to think about to give them an extra lift, is to thank God they didn't have to work and go to college in the middle thirties. They can take my word for it. It was more than rugged. Please don't sell these youngsters short. They have a lot of ambition and those that have what it takes will make it. They have every chance in the world. With this atomic age they will have op portunities we never dreamed of. All they need is the guid ance and training of loving parents to cope with this old world. Mrs. A. F. Martin 1685 Minear rd. Medford BI9 Lias To the Editor: Our Stale Legislature appears to have come up W'ith a "magic" form ula to "painlessly" extract another $50 million or more per biennium from Oregon taxpayers by placing them under the temporary anes thesia of deception. The false story is being circulated that the extra tax will in fact come from the federal government and not from the individuals against whom it is to be levied. This deception is based up on the following three big lies: 1-State income lax is the only state or local tax that is allowable as a deduc tion on the federal return; 2 Evcryone will qualify for this deduction on his federal re turn; 3-The Oregon income tax will reduce federal in come tax in equal amount. The truth of the matter Is this: 1 With a few minor ex ceptions, any state or local tax assessed against the in dividual is deductibe on the federal return istate income tax is no different in this respect from other types of taxi; 2-. No one can deduct his state income tax or any other I state or local tax without first United States doesn't see why Japan should be concerned about losing $2 or $3 million worth of textile sales, since it has the fastest growth rate of any industrial power in the world.

He thus en ters a difficult and ill-defined area What is per missible and what is impermissible parti sanship? And what is its source? For the question is not merely what is being said; it is also who is saying it. The reasons for this self imposed assignment are clear. For eight years as Senate Democratic leader under the Republican administration of Dwight Eisenhower, Johnson consistently refrained from attacks on Eisenhower policy "beyond the water's edge." So did the late House Speak er Sam Rayburn of Texas, even though privately they both ground their teeth on many an occasion. ... MOREOVER, to the best of their ability they sought to restrain intemperateness among the Democratic rank-and-file in Congress. And they notably reduced the effective ness of partisan assaults on General Eisenhower's conduct giving up his right to take the 10 standard deduction. In fact where the personal de ducions include medical ex pense, they do the taxpayer no good at all unless they ex ceed 14 of his "adjusted gross income"; 3-The Oregon income tax or any other stale or local tax will reduce fed eral income tax, if at all, only to the extent of the federal rate for his bracket. In the bottom federal bracket each $1 paid in allowable taxes will reduce federal tax by only 20 cents. The master logic in the move to disallow the federal tax as a deduction lies in that it can be expected to do to discourage high income indi viduals from coming to Ore gon. The present state top bracket is BVi. For an In dividual in the 50 federal bracket the new plan would double his rate making it 19. For one in the top fed eral bracket of 91 the Ore gon tax on his $9 remaining after federal tax would be $9.50, or 105 59. Earl Glidewell 1090 North First st, Hermiston, Ore. Poor Practice lo the Editor: I wish to commend the gas company on the way it left the road after laying the gas pipe on Reager St., and the safety program they took as far as letting the Kicis play around the big ditch digger. I thought it was about ab solutely zero. Reager st. had been a good road before they sloped the pipes on the left hand side, then cut across the street and left that in a mess too. I wonder if they intend to repair this mess they left the road In? I know for sure it will be one hell of a mess this comming winter if it is left this way. David J. Sletten 121 Reager st.

Whit of world affairs from tha Democratic national commit tee's advisory group by coldly boycotting that group alto gether. In short, the Johnson-Rav. burn leadership of a Demo cratic Congress in notable in stances gave to General Eisen hower the decisive support ho required to remain the con stitutional master of the for eign policy of this country. All this Vice President Johnson's associates ara pointing out urgently now to Republican members of Con gress along with some re bellious Democrats. In short, they are appealing to the Re publicans, for the generosity toward President Kennedv in world affairs which was shown to President Eisenhow er by the Democratic, leaders of his era. ... A LL this is well and good " and wholly justified, so far as it goes. The difficulty, however, is that the harshest criticism of Mr. Kennedy on Cuba is not coming from, tha Republican leaders of Con gress, any more than such criticism came from the Dem ocratic leaders in General Ei senhower's time. Instead, it is issuing from secondarv Re publican congressional figures just, as it used to issue from secondary Democratic figures. The whole record on Cuba by the Republican Senata chief, Senator Everett Dirk sen of Illinois, and his House counterpart, Rep. Charles Hallcck of Indiana, does not show extreme partisanship if "extreme partisanship" ba defined as that form of criti cism which is plainly only destructive and strictly politically-motivated.' But down below this level individual Republicans and some Democrats are giving Mr. Kennedy a h a r d timo about Cuba, just as below tha Johnson-Rayburn level indi vidual Democrats and soma Republicans gave General Eisenhower a hard time about the world crises of his tenure. ... T'HE long and short of it is that any President has got to expect this sort of thing. His highest rational hopa must be that the opposition leaders will try to be under standing of his and tha nation's ' problems. The present Johnson mis sion, therefore, can realisti cally have only the most lim ited of objectives. This is to keep the Republican leaders plus such rank-and-filers as can be persuaded to go along, as a sort of bonus from rocking the boat more than is absolutely necessary in a two-party system. Though it may sound odd, parly leaders are nearly al ways more amenable lo such persuasion than are rank-and-filers. For every party leader knows from his own personal experience what it is to bear responsibility. They all also know what other politicians often do not. This is that in the last end of it there can be only one President at a time and thai when we ara embroiled abroad he alono has simply got to call the sig nals.
