It would probably be overly optimistic to say that it of a new era in international relationships, but it is cheering to speculate THERE is widespread agreement. It ranges faintly ludicrous "Ban some of the most solid community. A number of the latter, including some of the most respected business names in the nation, recently paid for a full page advertisement in the Wall Street Journal telling, in big type, "Why business leaders want a Nuclear Test Ban Treaty." The rather long statement concluded thus: "An effective test ban treaty lifts the ominous pall which overhangs and opens the door to rationality, and, therefore, to hope in a constructive world. "Such risks as may be involved In a test ban treaty should not be magnified. The gains to be achieved far outweigh them. "We, therefore, commend and support the Admin istration's continuing efforts to achieve an effective test ban treaty with the USSR, confident that our own security will be protected and also world survival."

In part, TRB said : "He would abolish the graduated Income tax (sub stitute a fixed rate income tax on all alike, rich and poor). He favors the compulsory open shop and calls the federal school program Illegal until the Constitu tion is amended. He would make a tax cut conditional on a balanced budget. He believes unemployment can be solved only by private investment. The Birchites, he believes, are mostly fine people, though he thinks their founder, Robert Welch, is now a handicap and should retire . . , "His foreign affairs approach: brandish the bomb, support banana dictators, withdraw recognition from Communist countries, Invade Cuba, retreat from the UN, take a 'strong' stand around Die world, and save money by reducing military expenditures." a e 'THE columnist also pointed out that Goldwater wrote an approving letter to the then city man ager of Newburgh, N.Y., Joseph McD. Mitchell, alter he put into enect ering welfare expenditures most of which sub sequently were tossed out as illegal. Mitchell recently resigned to become an organizer for the John JJirch society.

Alvy Kendall 3306 Snowy Butte rd., Medford. JFK and Barry To the Kdilor: In your edi torial of July 17, you stated that Oregon's Gov. Mark Hat field Is a "moderate, a middle- of-the-roader," and implied that this fact, in itself, boosts his prospects for winning the general election of 1964 tor the Presidency above those of Anions j Senator Barry Gold- water, as the moderate view is that of the "thinking voters of the nation." Political real ity, however, shows that no candidate tins the chances of the proverbial snowball against President Kennedy's political Image, rugged good- looks, and vote-catching per sonalitynot to mention the distinct advantage of having the prestige of the office itself behind hlm-unless he csj of- MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE.

In short, the Re publican party needs to turn away, at long last, from Twee dledum and Tweedledee and political "metooism." Unless in 1964 the G.O.P. can give the public a nominee whose philosophy o f government shows obvious differences from the President's, voters will continue to place more stock in public image and per sonality than in effective lead ership and responsible think ing. This can be illustrated by a brief glance at the Presi dential election of 1960. When given a choice be tween a Conservative Liberal and a Liberal Conservative. professing similar political beliefs, the public quite nat urally selected the more dom inant and personably-appeal- ing of the two. The same re sult would most assuredly be fall the Republican party in '64 if it should select a liberal as its nominee. There is little doubt that President Kennedy is . the Number One politician in America. Only Barry Gold' water can hope to campaign effectively against one so deft at projecting a favorable pub lic image and who enjoys such obvious popularity as the in' cumbent.

Helping One's Self To the Editor: Lydia Burn ham's "No Prayers" (MT 714), concerning the Su preme Court's ruling banning prayers and Bible reading in the public schools, reminds me of the old saying, "God helps those who help them selves!" My belief is that if one gets In the habit of help ing himself, he usually doesn't need the help of anyone else It reminds me, too, of the story 1 heard when a boy of the darky who, on Thanksgiv ing Eve, found his cupboard bare or the traditional tur key. "Lord send me a tur key," he prayed. Time went by. Finally, out of patience. he prayed, "Lord send me out AFTER a turkey!" I believe that God, long ago, did about all He could for the human race. Think of the constancy of the laws that govern our universe! Think of how marvelously balanced are the various functions of our bodies some perform ing voluntarily, others invol untarily, and our unique brain working both ways! What a "comic opera" life would be if we had to say to the heart, for example, "Now beat now rest," or to the lungs, "Now Inhale now exhale." It seems to me, too, that In the conception of the Father hood of God we should allow room for the Idea that He might desire a life of His own. Perhaps, like an earthly father. He wants us to grow up as responsible citizens, able to take care of our selves, and not as "spoiled brats'" always asking for help Even Christ as early as twelve announced his emancipation from his earthly parents when they found him in the temple. I once attended a Prayer Circle: A farmer asked the minister to pray for rain on ly to have another farmer ask him to pray that it WOULDN'T rain! The first explained that his land tend ed to be dry and quick-drain ing: the second that his farm was already devilish wet and swampy. The minister neatly solved his dilemma by simply advising the former to "Build a reservoir"; the latter to "Dig a drainage ditch." Should we not. then.

ART FORM One of the ironies of the film as an art medium is that it seems to do much better with the sec ond-rate than with the first- rate. Great ness in a nov el or in a play does not tran scribe i t s e If weU onto the screen. Two recent movies, aarru "No Exit," adapted from Sartre's play, and "The Trial" adapted from Kafka's novel, are depressing examples of this truth. Each was excellent in its own me dium; both fail dismally as films. The best movies I have seen - from a cinematogra phic point of view-have been second-rate works, like "Re becca" or "Gone With the Wind." And "David Copper field," which is not one of Dickens' superior novels, made an absolute stunning movie. Yet the great Shakespear ean plays, such as "Hamlet" progress, endeavor to pray less and DO MORE about our problems? How inspiring the example set by our clergy men and other white citizens as they march in protest against the injustices that are being done to our colored bro thers! Evidently, they had de cided that mere praying wasn't enough. George M. Babcock 427 Hospital dr. Ashland, Ore. Reforms Needed To the Editor: It would be a great pity if Walter Lipp mann's excellent column of July 7, "Strength to Govern Well, were to pass wltnout the commendation it so richly deserves. Under our present anti quated congressional proced ures, the variety of techniques for obstructing or delaying ac tion upon important Admin istration bills is limited only by the ingenuity of those whose interest It is to main tain the status quo. Perhaps in earlier times the Congress could limp along in this fash ion, but the case is different now. Mr. Llppman quite rightly points out that govern mental paralysis, in our pres ent crisis, may produce grave injury to existing social and political institutions. While I do not necessarily share his priorities, I whole heartedly support Mr. Lipp mann's proposal for a rule which would force the Senate and its committees to set up on important Administration proposals. In the last Cong ress, and again in this Cong ress, I introduced a resolu tion (S. Res. 42) which would require each standing com mittee of the Senate to con sider any Administration bill referred to it within a reas onable time prior to July 4, and to report its recommenda tions for or against enactment to the Senate so that the Sen ate as a whole will have a chance to act upon it before the end of the session in which the bill was offered. This proposal, along with numerous others. Is now pend ing before the Senate Rules committee, and two days of hearings have already been held. I hope that these hear ings will continue, and that a number of the more Impor tant rules change proposals now pending will be favor ably reported to the floor of the Senate before much longer. It is later than many think. Joseph S. Clark U.S. Senator (Democrat, Pennsylvania) Washington, D.C. Appetites Whetted To the Editor: In paragraph 18 of your editorial 71663, you wrote "There is currently under way an effort to destroy the whole intent of the consti tution, as it was written and as it has developed through interpretation over the years." Remember, it was Earl War ren who said the original in tent of the Founding Fathers has evolved. He did not say that some people or even con ditions have changed, but that the "original intent" has changed. Now, if he and the Court and the Liberal Estab lishment truly believe this, you will agree they (the Court) will wander from the original Intent when they in terpret the constitution. So, are you implying Earl Warren and the Court do not under stand the constitution? If so, your implication will no doubt be accepted as an understate ment. There was a superficial as pect in your editorial. In its title alone, "Understanding the Constitution.'' More neces sary, more valuable, is an understanding of the moral and religious principles that inspired that constitution -and yet - the Supreme Court (composed largely of non-coii- J. Harris e "Macbeth" have never been done well en the screen. Laurence Olirier's film version of "Hamlet" was disaster; and Orson Wells' "Macbeth" was even worse. The more profound a novel or play, the less successfully it seems to lend itself to film treatment. Perhaps this is because the greatness of a play er a novel consist, to large de gree, in disclosing the In ner life of its characters, in placing a microscope close to the secret springs of their motivations . The film, on the other hand, is an enormous mag nifying glass, fit for show ing us the craters on the moon. Its very scope may defeat the purpose of axtt it calls for so many people, so many scenes, so much ac tivity on the surface that the symbolic meaning be comes obscured and lost. When a movie does not try to do very much, it succeds admirably, for it can depict the appearances of things in large, broad, commanding strokes. When, however, it tries to capture the inner feelings of the protagonist in "The Trial," or the three people trapped without exit in Sartre's personal hell - then it falters and falls, tripped by its own cumber some size. Each art form has its own peculiar limitations, which may be organic; nor are they interchangeable. The novels of Henry James simply do not make good plays or moives; what is lost is the "interior movement" within the au thor's mind - and no exter nal action can substitute for this. It is significant that when James himself wrote for the stage, his productions were hooted down after a few performances. I think that a survey of grea film adaptations of the last 30 years would show that they have invariably been taken from minor works and have been improved in the screen version. Perhaps one of the measures of the greatness of a novel or a play is its refractory resistance to being changed into another medium. stitutional scholars), decreed those principles may not be learned in the schools, but rather, should be taught at home. (In this light It Is a strange paradox that the "pro gressive educators insist they must have the children earlier and keep them longer, in order to offset the "bad" in fluence they are exposed to at home, making it harder for the educators to do their job.) Earlier you registered agreement when the Court said no to the New York Re gent's prayer. In the New Testament (of the Bible, to which the Court also says no), there is another prayer known as the Our Father, reputed to have been composed by Christ. Not for the classroom says the Court. By thus exil ing God, we can only bring on the tyrannization of man. Anyhow, the atheists and the secularists have had their day with the Supreme Court, though no doubt their appe tites have only been whetted. With the Supreme Court run ning amuck like this the stage is set for the nudists to have their day in Court (read, school). After all, why should children whose parents are confirmed nudists be "forced (?)" into clothes with the rest of the children whose parents are merely Influenced by a bygone, outdated, vague idea of prudence (not to mention Christian purity).

This is a very neat way out, but I do not have a talking dog. Another keen solution was thought up by a lady columnist who got her hus band to write her column on that dreadful day. He wrote about how swell the book was and how his wife was so em barrassed she was hiding un der the bed. But I do not have a husband and, anyway, there is a rowing machine I never use cluttering up the under side of my bed. So there's nothing for it.

In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS Headline: BROAD SMILES IN MOS COW. 11HE STORY under the head line coe nn to relate that our Ave re 11 Harriman and Britain's Lord Hailsham were smiling at the close of the sec ond round of the Moscow par ley on a formula to outlaw nu clear weapons tests. Before the opening of the day's talk, Russia's Valerian Zorin was askd if he believes the talks are proceeding satis factorily. The correspondents report that he replied with a smile: "In my opinion, YES." IT ALL SOUNDS super-wonderful. But in the warm glow of good will that appears to be pervading the present meet ing In Moscow, let's not forget Hamlet's famous crack to the effect that one may smile and smile and be a villain still. In a big deal, it always pays to keep your fingers crossed until the papers are all signed. BRITAIN'S Sir Bernard Lov ell, director of the Jodrell Bank Radio Astronomy Ob servatory, is just back in Eng land after a three week visit to Russia. He says the Soviet Union is planning to build an "orbital platform," much like a flying hotel, that will operate out in space. It is expected to be completed within about five years. "The author writes with charm, wit, delicateness, del icacy and a delicately delin eated lasciviousness. And ha unquestionably shows a prom ise which presages increasing maturity as he increasingly matures. "The nostalgically delineat ed scenes of his boyhood in Chillecothe, New Brunswick, where he was a member of a juvenile sex ring, for in stance, are couched in a lan guage which will evoke the ghosts of childhood memor ies for many a greying read er, particularly those who grew up in Chillecothe, New Brunswick, juvenile sex rings for there is a gold mine of real Americana here. "But in. reveling in such eminently delineated idyllic interludes, one must not lose one's sight of the iconoclastic message the author subtly brings one. Let us take as an example the seven chapters meticulously detailing how the skillfully delineated hired hand skillfuly ravishes 13 voluptuously delineated milk maids in a row. Some will in dubitably read this as simply a bucolic pastorale. Yet a small but discriminating group of readers will surely find in this microscosmia drama a reflection of their own lives. "On the other side of the coin, however, is the sorry fact that this book lacks an index." Well, that strikes me as the fairest of reviews. That you'll get out of me. Or a talking dog for that matter. After all, you've got to admit it's one of the more stimulating reviews of a book on the dreary sub ject of politics you've read lately. And I just hope you don't get the idea this book deals exclusively with sex, lust, rape, incest, carnality, nym phomania and general de pravity. I just hope. Wait a minute! Did I say it was illus trated? Well, I won't It wouldn't be honest. The "platform," he says, will be assembled in space by joining together a number of space ships to form what ha calls "a sort of hotel." Ha adds that it will be manned by a number of astronauts who will stay out there for spells of five to six days. Women, Sir Bernard says, will almost certainly take-part in the enterprise. WHAT ABOUT US? Well, a dispatch from Seattle this morning says: "Five scientists entered a space chamber here yesterday for a test of an integrated life support system such as would be needed on a space station or on a moon base. They may stay for 30 days, depending upon what they learn and how well they hold up. "The test is being conducted by the Boeing Company, and is the first to Include all ele ments of life support for a 150 man-day space mission. Crew members will bathe in a closed-circuit shower, designed for use under WEIGHTLESS conditions. It has a separate water supply which Is filtered and chemically treated for re use. "Special diets of freeze dried foods, some in squeeze tubes for simulated weightless feeding, include such items as shrimp cocktail, strawberries and peanut butter sand wiches." QUESTION: Why the squeeze tubes? Well, out in space, you know, one is WEIGHTLESS. So, if the astronauts' food were merely put on the table and the word given to coma and get it. it would be likely to float off around the room. So it will be put in tubes, enabling the astronaut to grasp a tube containing his breakfast, his lunch or his din ner and cat while he floats around the space chamber. There's always a way, you see, to get around problems. If OW ABOUT a bath in the "closed-circuit" shower? It would be quite an experi ence to take a shower while floating around the moon with the water flowing UP from your feet. This space travel is going to be SOMETHING when we get around to it.
