Finley fought like a wildcat, but finally was overcome and robbed of all the change in his pocket thirty cents, to be exact "You're a fighting feller," grunted one of the thugs with something like ad miration in his voice, "but why would you be want ing to put up such a bat tle for a measly thirty . cents?" "Sure," confided Finley, "I thought yez wanted the ten- dollars I've got hidden in me shoe!" "In every organization," observed Dr. Charles Lapp, "there are three kinds of people: rowboat people, sailboat people, and steamboat people. Rowboat people need to be pushed or shoved along. Sailboat people move when a favorable wind is blowing. Steamboat people move continuously, through calm or storm. They are the ones who axe masters of themselves, their surroundings, and their fate." Terse verse from Colonel Francis Duffy: "He let his head get swollen up, And sniffed at those who hired him. He thought himself a, great big gun And that is why they fired him." j O by Bennett Cert.

DOWNTOWN IN MEDFORD. 412, tA 11 M it n ijy ii r nji ii tt If y2 112 EAST MAIN In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS From Moscow: The U.S., Britain and the Soviet Union signed a his toric test ban treaty which they hailed as an initial step toward ending the cold war and guaranteeing peace. With a quick signing of names in St. Catherine's Hall of The Kremlin, they agreed to the first major control pact be tween the East and West since the end of World War II. At the end, when all three had signed with an army of diplomats and officials look ing on, Premier Khrushchev, beaming with satisfaction, led those present in a champagne toast to the future. correspondent, says that high level American "sources" in Moscow warn that the U.S. does not intend to relax its vigilance in dealing with the Soviet Union because of the split between Moscow and Peking. He adds that these sources say U.S. policy is not based on the supposition that the two communist giants will re main apart. It is by no means certain, he adds, that they would not JOIN FORCES if either were involved in a conflict with a non-commun ist nation. AS they signed, the repre sentative nf t h A throp nations concerned each offer ed a comment on the signifi cance of what had just oc curred. Here are the com ments: U.S. Secretary of State Rusk: "It is a good first step. If, collectively, we and other nations pursue a course to insure that the forward mo mentum is maintained by further steps, man's long hopeful quest for peace will cease to be only a dream and will begin to acquire solid reality." Soviet Foreign Minister Gromyko: "The treaty may pave the way for other, more important, international prob lems, including the problem Of DISARMAMENT. Britain's Foreign Minister Lord Home: "The treaty is an important breakthrough in the arms race. Now there is a chance to employ our great resources to produce a more abundant life." F SOUNDS wonderful, doesn't it? Almost too good to be true, One can't help wondering how, and why, it all came about. AND Especially One can't help wondering why Mr. Kroosh. who for years has been talking about BURYING us, has come around so suddenly to this talk of getting alon ' with us. ANYWAY, we'll see what we will see. If we keep our fingers crossed and our powder dry and our armament definitely and permanently superior to the communist armament, everything may turn out all right. This is no time for either side to get trigger happy. For the first time since history began, man possesses the power to destroy this world we live on. Never before was there such a need for inspired and capable leadership. Three Injured in Traffic Mishaps Three persons were injured in two accidents last night, state police reported. Janet Sue Nelson, 21, of Eugene, was treated at Cra ter Osteopathic hospital for numerous bumps and bruises when a car driven by her hus band rolled over after hitting a guard rail on Interstate 5 at the Tolo overpass about 5:45 p.m. yesterday. The driv er, Larry Leroy Nelson, 21, apparently fell asleep, police said. Gracie DeHass, 71, of 1725 Gregory rd.. Central Point, and Mable Meadows, 65, Butte Falls, passengers In pickup trucks driven by their hus bands, were treated for broken ankles following a collision on the Crater Lake highway about 7:45 p.m. yesterday near the Sams Valley turnoff, po lice said. The two women were taken to a physician by private automobile. The accident occurred as a truck driven by Lethew Lee Meadows, 61, started to pass the truck driven by William Scott DeHass, 76, as DeHass was making a left turn, police said. ON THAT point, the A.P.'s Bill Ryan, who is usually very well informed, has this to say: "It is likely the Red Chi nese-Soviet Communist split played a part in bringing the partial test ban about Khrushchev's stated policy with regard to world com munism is that more flies can be caught with honey than with vinegar. Peaceful coexistence, as he sees it, weakens the polit ical armor of the West, ap plies pressures against West ern governments and creates a climate of trust for tne Kremlin in which communists can operate more effectively. Warlike gestures, such as those indulged in by Stalin, only tend to UNITE the West." Which is to say: Old Kroosh may have de cided to use honey instead of vinegar.
