Mcdford's city council is expected to take action on the city s dog ordinance. 20 YEARS AGO April 21. 1943 (Wednesday) War department lists First Lt. Robert G.

Sugar scheduled to gn up 20 cents a pound In Mcdford. A 'Complaint Department' Are the existing checks and balances built into our governments federal and state still adequate to insure that they will remain respon sive, and do well their job of serving the people? There is some doubt that they are. The DfODOsed new Constitution for Oregon would create the office of controller, who would have "watchdog" duties, including auditing, for the executive and administrative offices of the state. In the Army, the office of inspector general performs similar functions. A ND IN .Scandinavia, the office of "Ombuds man" (which means "Representative") has been created to perform a like duty. The idea is spreading. Connecticut is now considering the establishment of such an office. And the Scandinavian countries are receiving many inquiries about the system. The American Bar Association is sponsoring a measure to create an independent otnee of leel eral administrative practice, which could, among other things, "receive complaints regarding mat ters of practice and procedure and make investi gations or recommendations as deemed appro priate." WHEN THE nation was small, its government was small and uncomplicated. Now, how ever, it includes scores or (iiiierent oiiices ana bureaus and denartmcnts. and millions of em ployees. States, too, have grown complex ana oiten unwieldy. Many of these officials have considerable power, including the power to affect the rights, nrivileeres and needs of private citizens. At the same time, many of them arc virtually immune, not only to criticism, but to remedial action. It is possible for some officials to do wrong without its being known except by chance witness the Billie Sol Estes affair. And who ainontr us has not trround his teeth h rage and frustration at what we consider to be j JF&&,g& the arbitrary and capricious actions of some bu- the soviet union have been reaucrat at one time or another? I JNDER THE proposal now being studied in Connecticut, the Ombudsman could inves tigate, either upon complaint or upon his own initiative, such matters as preferential treatment, influence peddling, inadequate or arbitrary regu lations, wrongful detention, police overzealous ness or laxity, unjust procedures, arbitrary cen sorship or secrecy, patronage excesses, ineffi ciencies and delays, had conditions in institu tions, payoffs and kickbacks, discriminatory ac tions, nonenf orcement of state laws, and a long list of other abuses or situations. He could not enforce any changes, nor would he have the power to prosecute. But he would have the authority to make investigations, to in spect records, to hear witnesses, and so on. And his reports presumably would carry great weight with both public and legislative opinion. AN ARTICLE in the Christian Science Monitor !1 VG ""J"' ''The fundamental justification of th Ombudsman's work is to strengthen the people's confidence in their government by helping to make sure that they receive the best possible public service." As it is, individual citizens often can do little when confronted with a situation which needs remedying. He can write to his elected represen tatives, legislative or executive. But this is not always productive. Having such a complaint department in "Do You Think I'm Being Too Daring?" Today & Tomorrow By Walter lippmann Icl 1963. The Waahington Post "PEACE IN THE LANDS" Beset by rivals who prom I ise a new order of human life, I and demoralized by anxiety and unbelief and aimless ness, there is in many West e r n men a yearning for a statement of the meaning and purpose of a free so- c i e t y. Now they have one tion of the natural law. It is a profoundly moving event in the history of our times that this high-minded and good-hcartcd Pope should be telling men that this is the way to peace among them selves and within all the lands. tieala l.tr-pinann By Joseph Alsop (ci New York Herald Tribune Syndicate ON THE OTHER SIDE Vienna At the close of a European journey in this year of great changes, it is hard to decide which chang es are more striking and significant. On our side of the line that divides the world, the re surgence of n a 1 1 onalism personified by Gen. de Gaulle is menacing the Western Alliance. But on the line's other side, there is not only disunion in the Com munist camp; there are also profound changes inside the Soviet Union itself. Alsop thought about and written about largely In terms of their effects on individuals. It has been suggested that Nikita S. Khrushchev's power was declining, which is poss ible but not certain. Much at tention has also been given to the troubles which have over taken Vevgcni Ycvtushcnko and other intellectuals of the avant garde. BUT lt is clear by now thai the power struggle in the Soviet Presidium and the new repression of the Intellectuals and artists arc only elements of a much larger and more far-reaching process. The main features of the process are as follows: First, the restriction of in tellectual freedom, already noted.

Snow-packed roads have closed all but one of San Diego county's mountain schools. notably in the arrogant speech of the then political officer of i order which the Soviet Armed forces, Gen. Golikov. Second, the sharp re centralization of the whole Soviet economy, under Dim itri F. Ustinov, the man who has been handling the Soviet Armed Forces weapons pro curement ever since 1941. This reversal of Khrushchev decentralization seems to be the culminating episode in a long argument about invest ment priorities. In view of Ustinov's past associations, it would appear that the Armed Forces have won the argument. Third, the great increase of prosecutions for economic and other alleged crimes against the state; the more and more overt anti-Semitism; and the apparent growth of police ac tivity and authority. The statement has been made in the Easter encyclical letter of John XXIII, that most Christian Pope. Here is a re statement for the modern age of tile central philosophy up on which are based the in stitutions which we mean to preserve and intend to de velop. The encyclical is addressed not only to the clergy and the faithful, but "to all men of good will." The text bears out this greeting literally and or ganically. For the foundation on which the whole of the argument rests is that "the Creator of the world has im-1 printed in man's heart an his conscience ; Highest Challenge Probably all jobs in this complicated world of ours have certain inherent risks anil dangers in volved in them.

The regime of Josef Stalin had the same kind of familiarity. It resembled the terrible transforming reigns of Ivan the Terrible and Peter the Great. But what is happening now does not seem to be a return to Stalinism, in the true, terror-drenched sense of the word. Between its great, san guinary upheavals, Russian history has always followed a sort of bellows-rhythm. The air was let in, and the air was expelled again, in almost con tinuous alternation. The reign of Nicholas I was the classical airless period. There was no terror, at least of the extreme Ivan-Pcter-Stalin sort, and there were no great, transforming changes. There was a rigid and dead ening autocracy, hostile to ideas of any kind at all. squarely based on the armed forces and the police. The most competent Euro pean students of the problem more and more incline to be lieve that Russia is entering another period like the reign of Nicholas I. made far worse, of course, by the fact that Russia is now a Communist society. Where this return to airlessncss icaves Khrush chev, who let Ihe air in to begin with, remains an open question. PROBABLY the most im portant clue is that fact that KhrushchfiV is known to have been personally rcspon- i siblc for the publication of the a s t o n i s ll i n g prison-camp ' novel. "One Day in the Life I of Ivan Dcnisovich." In the j light of hindsight, this looks Very like a move in an inner political struggle, comparable to the last-minute decision to spread all the crimes of Stalin on tile public record at the 112nd Congress. If this appearance is not misleading, Khrushchev's I power has probably declined. ! But In reality, what happens I to Khrushchev is much less important than what has al I ready happened to his pol- icies. Whether or no Khrush i chev continues in charge, the ! Soviet state-machinery has clearly begun to move in a reveals to him and enjoins him to obey." This proposi tion, which is the first prin ciple of what is known as nat ural law, can be held, and in fact has been and is held, by men of widely differing theo logical beliefs. In reaching out beyond Ihe clergy and the faithful of his own church to ail men of good will, including the de clared enemies of his church, the Pope has based the argu ment of his message not on revelation and the inspired teachings of the church, but upon a philosophical prin ciple. It is that there is in all men at least the rudiments of a conscience, at least some capacity to reason, and some inclination to follow it. THE natural law, of which this is the foundation stone, is older than the Christ ian church. St. Paul's concep tion of the one church, "neith er Greek nor Jew . . . bar barian, Scythian, bond nor free," was in the Mediterran ean air at the time of Alex ander the Great in the fourth century B.C. It was first ar ticulated by the stoic philos ophers and was then worked out by the Roman lawyers. Ernest Barker in his book, "Traditions of Civility," says, "The rational faculty of man was conceived as producing a common conception of law and order which possessed a universal validity. . . . This common conception included, as its three great notes, the three values of liberty, equal ity and brotherhood or fra ternity of all mankind. This common conception and its three great notes have formed a European set of ideas for over 2,000 years." These ideas flourished "from the days of the Refor mation to those of the French Revolution." They inspired and justified the glorious revolution of 1689, and they were the doctrine of the Americans who made the revolution of 1776. The Dec laration of Independence is on essay In natural law; the first ten amendments of the Constitution, known as the Bill of Rights, are an applk'a- rPHIS is not the place to at-a- temjat a summary of what is, though it is merit, a closely-reasoned and highly - condensed text. It covers the whole range of ex ternal human interests from the family to the world com munity, of the public philos ophy as distinguished from private, interior, mystic and aesthetic experience. It docs not, of course, pro pose concrete solutions for concrete issues, say, what to do about Castro and Cuba. The solutions fall, as the Pope I says, within the realm of 1 prudence, which is the capac j ity to judge what is oppor tune and useful in a particu lar moment. But if the ency clical contains no panacea for Cuba, its way of thinking could be. with good profit, studied by all who would deal with Cuba. "One must never," says the Pope, "confuse error and a person who errs . . . The per-; soil who errs is always and above all a human being, and he retains in every case his dignity as a human person, and he must be always re garded and treated In accord ance with that lofty dignity. Besides, in every human being there is a need that is ! congenital to his nature and never becomes extinguished, compelling him to break through the web of error and open his mind to the know ledge of truth."

I ven ture to think that this vener able Pope will be better un derstood by the new political generation that is coming lo power in the Western lands. There is, I believe, a suc tion of opinion toward the center and away from the ex tremes. In the terms of con tinental European politics, there is a strong tendency for the Democratic Socialists to coalesce with the Christian Democrats. This may prove to be of decisive importance of the world The Pope's encyclical seems to have been timed after de ciding that the "moment has arrived . . . when it is honor able and useful" to restate the old philosophy for the modern age. lerscholastic Tournament t-nicago.

On top of this, comcidcntally, there remains that wonder- more and more thinks and speaks of the Alliance in terms of America and "Europe," an essentially false apposition. It can be argued, indeed, that the very concept of "alli ance." as history has shaped the common concept, is essen tially false in the era of nucle ar power, which has basically altered not only the nature of war but the nature of sovereignty.
