MEDFORD. OREGON WEDNESDAY. JUNE 12. IMS Sunday, June 16 217 E. Main St. Medford In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS In the news of this morn ing at least up to the hour this is written there is noth ing that GOES BANG! It isn't a big headlines day. IN A graduation address at American University, Pres ident Kennedy announces a moratorium on nuclear test ing in the atmosphere as a part of a new "high level" effort to resolve the five year old test ban deadlock with Russia. He said: "The U.S. does not propose to conduct nuclear tests in the atmosphere SO LONG AS OTHER NATIONS DO NOT DO SO." He conceded that successful conclusion of a nuclear test ban treaty depends on Soviet leaders adopting a "more enlightened attitude." But, he added, "I believe we can help them to do it by SETTING THE EXAMPLE in all areas of human relations." WELL, ifs worth a try So long as we KEEP OUR POWDER DRY. IN HIS address, President Kennedy noted that Rus sia and the United States have never opposed each other on the battlefield, and then ad ded: "Both the United States and its allies and the Soviet Un ion and its allies have a mu tually deep interest in a just I, V '! K5 I FOR THOSE WHO CALL US IN TIME OF NEED . . 'Hi J S Dignity and Reverence. Faithful and Prnmnt .ruir. lu...e Your confidence is Sacred C. M. Litwiller Trust we treasure. Mrs. Litwiller New, Economy Ambulance Service, Non-Emergency for Medford! CALL I ITWII I FR 1811 Ashland St. 482-2810 FUNERAL HOME Ashland and genuine peace and in halting the arms race.' TRUE enough. But The Soviet Union is ruled by communists whose purpose is to CONQUER THE WORLD FOR COMMUNISM. As long as that remains true, an eventual clash is in evitable. As long as the U.S.A. remains the U.S.A., Ameri cans will never submit to communists without a battle to the death. Mr. Kroosh might as well put that in his pipe and smoke it. A THOUGHT: We might have clashed with Russia over Alaska. We DIDN'T. We might have clashed with Russia over the Russian settlements on the Northern California coast. We DIDN't. But that was before COM MUNISM took over Russia. IN CONCLUSION, two ques tions: 1. Where is American Uni versity? 2. What is American University? 11 ERE are the answers: 1 1. American University Is located in Washington, D.C. 2. It is a coeducational lib eral arts college. It was char tered in 1893, and is con trolled by the Methodist church. It has a college of arts and sciences, a School of Public Affairs, and a Grad uate School. Its normal enrollment Is presently in the neighbor hood of 3,000 to 4,000. ZOO SCORES FIRST Dunstable, England OJPD Whipsnade Zoo has hatched European white storks for the first time - on top of a tall, imitation chimney: The storks refused to nest In the zoo be fore because its chimneys were too low. Try and Stop Mo -By BENNETT CIRF- A 9-YEAR-OLD LAD, having participated in his first inter class basketball game, arrived home in a high state of elation, " we creamea inem, aaa, e repot icu uiuuiymuiuj 'hut it was nin.nnri- tuck right down to the wire." "Good ior you," approved his lather. 'What was the score?" The boy replied, "One to nothing." An American business man vu called upon to make a, few remarks at a conclave in London. His audience failed to respond to a couple of his corny jokes. Piqued, the business man remarked, "You Eng lish v-ill probably laugh at my stone some ume next Bummer." "On the contrary," the chairman laughed at them teat summer." 1 California Is spending- millions to transport by pipeline some of the rain water that beats down so persistently on the coastal 'region of Washington and Oregon. A University of Washington professor In Seattle told me, "That majestic peak you see about sixty miles to the Southeast is Mount Rainier. We use it as a weather guide every morning If we can see it when we wake up, we know it's going1 to rain later in the day. If we can't see it, we know it's raining already!" When Seattle folk can see Mt Rainier, incidentally, or when Mt. Hood is visible to the citizens of Portland, the common phrase is, "Oh, look: the mountain is out today!" C 1963. by Bemwtt Cert.

Josephine County Employment Rises Grants Pass Employment in all facets of the Josephine county economy was on the uptrend by the last of May, according to Don Stiffler, manager of the Grants Pass office of the state employ ment service. Unemployment rates for the month, however, were higher than last year's comparable figures. This was mainly tem porary, Stiffler said, and by the end of the month totals were dropping fast. The dollar value of city building permits issued dur ing the month showed a dra matic increase over last May, Stiffler said. Permits worth $536,550 were issued, compar ed with $87,600 for May, 1962. v ' The majority of local mo- fr COOL COOL COOL COOL COOL COOl COOl COOL COOL! MM COOL!

Le master is serving in Copping en, Germany as a member of the Army's Fourth Armored division's public information staff.

Two of the three men in the helicopter were fatally injured and the third was in serious condition. The air craft's crew was lowering an 880-pound cross into position on a bell tower of a church under construction, when it crashed. LcMaster and Staff Sgt. Franklin D.

Keiser, who is in charge of timber management for Rogue River National forest, was main speaker for the timber committee of Die Southern Oregon Conserva tion and Tree Farm associa tion at a morning meeting June 11 in Stanley's restau rant. Better utilization and im proved logging practices are on the increase and account for increased footage in the reinventory of standing for ests, Keiser stated. This will result in more timber for harvesting in the future, he pointed out. The amount of blowdown timber sold and the manner in which it has been handled to date will not result in a shortage of timber to be sold in future years, he continued to say. The ovcrcut, to salv age blowdown, can easily be absorbed in allowable cut figures without creating a marked decrease in use of Forest service timber, he ex plained. Road construction costs, the price of timber, quality of timber and adjustments for error in quality appraisal, also were discussed. The next meeting will be concerned with road construction and costs as outlined by the U.S. Forest service in timber sale appraisal.

Caramanlis had announced his resignation earlier, follow ing a brief audience with the king at the royal palace which the premier said ended in "complete disagreement."
