Charter went into effect. They have been 18 momentous years. The United Nations, while not always successful in its peacekeeping mission, has had its triumphs, and no amount of ill-informed sniping and criti cism can dull them. NO one claims the United Nations is perfect. But it has had the undivided support of all Presidents from Franklin Roosevelt to John F. Kennedy; it has had majority support in both houses of Congress, and, if pollsters are to be believed, it has solid support from a majority of the citizens of the United States. President Eisenhower once said the U.N. is "man's best organized hope to substitute the con ference table for the battlefield." Adlai Stevenson recently said that the chief importance of the United Nations was as "a com munity of tolerance." Even Barry Goldwater, who once thought we should quit the world organization, now believes we should not unless Red China is admitted. THE Birch types who wail about the United Nations taking over the United States armed forces and putting them under the command of a Russian colonel (either Sobelof or Suslov, de pending on which version of the fairy tale is being told) have not been able to convince very many people of their fantasies. One recent publication said of the U.N. : "The international body never has become the sort of world parliament that some of its critics feared it might. Us original function of world forum meeting-place, sounding board, tension-easer, whatever image one likes remains its essential one." And a tremendously important function it is, too. E.A. UNICEF at Aside from the United Nations itself, two of its agencies have come in for witless criticism. One of them is UNESCO, which can take care of itself. The other is UNICEF, which usually (and sadly) needs a boost about this time of year. UNICEF is the U.N.'s children's fund, and its chief work is feeding and caring for kids throughout the world who otherwise would die of illness or starvation. Donations support it. But, because some of these kids live in Iron Curtain lands, it too has come under suspicion. (Permitting a child to die because you don't like his form of government hardly qualifies one for a bouquet of daisies.) )NE week from tonight is Halloween. For the past several years more and more young sters out trick-or-treating coins, as well as candy, and donating the coins to UNICEF. This humanitarian project, and the organiza tion which benefits from it, has the solid support of all who care a whit for the health and happi ness of children, and who know how UNICEF operates. Recent statements by Presidents Hoover, Truman, Eisenhower and Kennedy have praised it. E.A. A Way With Names The British have a way with names. The Queen is called Elizabeth. The family name is Windsor, but until World War I was Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, previously Hanover. Eliza beth is married to Prince Phillip Mountbatten (formerly Battenberg). Hut she does not take the last name of her husband; she remains a Wind sor. He is now the Duke of Edinburgh. Her oldest son is Prince Charles Philip Arthur George, and presumably he will be Britain's next ruler. Although commonly called Charles, he need not necessarly become King Charles 111: he could use another of his names. THE Queen's uncle once was David, Prince of Wales. Later he became King Edward Y11I. and after his abdication, Duke of Windsor. Her father was Albert, Duke of York, before becoming King George VI. Her sister was Princess Margaret Rose (Windsor) until her manage to a commoner, An tony Armstrong-Jones. Then he became t h c Earl of Snowdon and the father of David Albert Charles, Viscount Linley, fifth in line of suc cession to the throne. A ND now Lord Home has become prime min " ister of Great Britain. Because of his title, he could not sit in the House of Commons, where the real business of government is done. So, he dropped his peerage and became Sir Alec Douglas-Home. And, to add to the confusion, Lord Home pronounces his name Hume. Why pronounce Home as though it rhymes with fume? Well, the perhaps-apocryphal story goes that one of his Scottish ancestors was leading a battle several hundred veal's ago, and in the course of the melee a knight yelled, "To Home, To Home," meaning, "rally round Lord Home, bovs." But some of them thought he meant "Go home!!" Which they did. ! It's been pronounced Hume ever since. Ori at least that's the way the story goes. E.A. I Halloween have been accepting MEDFORD 'What A Dirty Trick, From Behind ASIAN BALANCE SHEET WASHINGTON - For the long pull, this autumn's most signifi cant news may well concern the harvest in Communist China. Recent evidence that may be considered conclusive indicates that this year's harvest was poorer than last year's. Superficially, t h e difference may not seem dramatic. Last year's Chinese Communist grain crop was on the order of 182 mil lion Ions. This year's may be as low as 175 million tons, and will certainly be less than 180 mil lion tons. The difference, then, is no more than three to nine million tons. In the conlcxt of the crisis in China, however, this drop in the crucial grain crop is an exceed ingly dramatic development, full of intimations of danger. The point is that the Chinese Communist leaders themselves have placed their whole reliance on an increase in agricultural productivity, as the only way out of their troubles. . EVERYTHING has been sub ordinated to securing this increase. Industry has been al lowed to come to a half-halt. Public investment has been sus pended. Every kind of conces sion has been made, to concil iate and to spur on the Chinese peasantry. Last year, moreover, when there was a slight but sig nificant rise in farm output, these measures seemed to be working. Only a few weeks ago, when this reporter was in Hong Kong, the China-watchers there still be lieved that lata would again see another slow rise in farm output on the Communist mainland. Tile fact that the output has in stead dropped has several mean ings, all of them pretty hair raising. Politically, the new fact means that the government of Mao Tse tung can no longer be regarded as stable and secure. It is irra tional to suppose that any group of national leaders must have a secure grip on power, when they have first inflicted a gigantic catastrophe on the nation they lead, mid have then totally failed to find any way out of the ap- palling situation created by the catastrophe.

MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. Sneaking Up On Us Like That!" Matter of Fact By Joseph Alsop cl New York Herald Tribune Syndliate all the drastic self-reversals by Mao and his colleagues, the fu ture of Mao's regime is now in doubt. This does not mean, of course, that a great change is to be im mediately expected. This does not mean, either, that, if and when there is a general upheaval or a great leadership crisis, the successor-regime will not re tain the Communist label. But this quite certainly means that U. S. policy in Asia must be based on a balance sheet, which shows the troubles of the other side just as prominently as the difficulties we ourselves have encountered. Our own difficulties have at least been somewhat exagger ated by the obsession of a num ber of the American newspaper men in Saigon with a political moral crusade against the gov ernment of President Ngo Dinh Diem. The warnings offered by the outcomes of similar cru sades, in China and later in Cuba, are being conspicuously ignored. INDEED the actual war in Viet Nam is being rather conspic uously ignored, if one may judge bv the extreme rarity of front line datelines among the lurid reports of the leading crusaders. And the war is still going rather well, even though the govern ment of President Ngo Dinh Diem has probably ceased to be permanently viable as a result of the Buddhist crisis. Thus our own difficulties have been painted in unduly emphatic colors. They exist. They are al ready serious difficulties, and it cannot be excluded that they will grow more serious with the pas sage of time. In the present state of affairs. President Diem s im mensely powerful brother. Ngo Dinh Nhu, may even try to make the deal with" the North Viet namese Communists for which the French on the spot have been intriguing. On the other hand, our diffi culties in Viet Nam are down right trifling, compared to the difficulties which now confront the Chinese Communist regime not to mention the regime in North Viet Nam. where condi- (ions are even worse than in 'China. j j if we hang on. therefore, we ' : can reasonably hope that the zig-zag in the course of history OREGON Internal Split, Independence Desires, Make British Guiana Source of Trouble f. f ; PHIL NiWSOM UPI Korelin News Analyst As Britain step by step has gone about the business of dis mantling its empire and giving independence to lormer colo nies, among the most persistent of its headaches has been the crown colony of British Guiana. Although on the way for more than 10 years, independence still is a goal to be realized by British Guiana which is situa ted on the north coast of South America and is about the size of Kansas. Now the British are making another try at setting a date. British Guiana has been de scribed as a small country with big problems, poor, racially di vided and isolated by moun tains and jungle. As well as being a problem to itself and to Britain, it also is a problem for the United States. At the center of the problem is Guiana's prime minister, Dr. Cheddi Jagan, an American trained dentist of East In dian descent, and his wife, Janet, who once called Chicago home and who doubles as min ister for home affairs with re sponsibility for internal secur ity. Jagan is an admitted Marxist and an admirer of the Soviet Union and Castro Cuba. In London, Jagan has been making dire predictions of an "explosion" if British Guiana does not achieve its independ ence now. The country, he said, could be the signpost, whether the whole of Latin America is to proceed through peaceful evolution or bloody revolt. Jagan derives his strength from the East Indians who make up nearly half of British Guiana's population, living mostly in rural areas and work ing on the big sugar planta tions. His chief opposition comes from the predominantly Negro Peoples National Congress led In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS Mismash in the news: Lord Home, Britian's new Prime Minister, assembled his cabinet to discuss the problems that lie ahead. One of these problems is that as Prime Min ister he must be a member of the House of Commons. He ISN'T. He must get elected first. So the opening of the fall session of Parliament must be postponed until the new Prime Minister can get himself elect ed as a member. TTAPPILY, that isn't as diffi- cult as a similar situation in the United States would be. One of the peculiarities of the British House of Commons is that its members don't have to be elected from the districts where they live. They can toss their hats into the ring in just ANY district that looks the most promising. So It is reported He will contest for the elec tion in Kinross, up in Scotland, which is regarded as a "safe" conservative district. THERE'S another block in the road that must be removed. Lord Home is a member of the British peerage. He is an earl. Before he can be elected j Prime Minister he must become 1 a commoner. So He must shed his earldom. He will ask Queen Elizabeth to postpone the reopening of Par-! espocjalv in the education de liament, which is scheduled for 1 partment before we think about this month. 3 PEAKING of hats- j The National Hat Council is mNt down our throats.

Why Barry Can t Win To the Editor: With all this noise about Goldwater lately you would actually think he has a chance to win. Actually, there are three good reasons why he does not have a chance. He is a halfbreed Protestant Jew. Since he is a halfbreed the Westerners won't vote for him; he is a Republican so the South erners won't vote for him; he is anti-labor so the Northerners won't vote for him; he is a Westerner so the Easterners won't vote for him; he is a Jew so the Protestants won't vote for him; he became a Protest ant so the Jews won't vote for him; the Catholics won't vote for him because they already have one to vote for; he is aaginst civil rights so the Ne groes won't vote for him; he is against government subsidies so the farmers won't vote for him; he comes from a rural area so the urbanites won't vote for him. In other words, Goldwater will get the vote of every half breed Protestant Jew in the country. That is, every half breed Protestant Jew who is not a Northerner, Southerner, Easterner, Westerner, Laborer, Farmer, Negro, Catholic, or city -dweller. This only leaves one person. Senator Barry Goldwater. And Goldwater won't vote for him self because he has said that, if elected, he would not elimi nate the income tax, which he is against because it is unfair. I may vote for him. At least we have a candidate who has stated clearly and concisely just where he stands. Leo J. Hughes Jr. Butte Falls, Ore. People Have Spoken To the Editor: In Sunday's M.T. in the editorial, "What is it the voters want?" E.A. asked "Pray tell what is it the voters want?" Really, Mr. Editor, if the overwhelming vote against this tax bill did not tell you what we want then I don't see how it could be made any plain er. It would seem now that the people have spoken that the pro ponents for more spending and higher taxes would let this thing drop before the legislature pre sented this bill. We the people ask them to hold the line on more taxes and again at the polls Oct. 15 we asked loudly again for no tax increase and elimination of wasteful and un necessary spending, mainly in the educational department. I think there are few of us but that are willing to sacrifice for our children's education if neces sary, but we don't like the waste of our tax monies. Unless we want another repeat iike we got on the daylight sav. ings time issue after the people had spoken, we should write our representatives demanding a full investigation and housecleaning in all state departments and I any other form of taxes or change in existing taxes, before I we cet another huce tax cram- job, I think I would listen to the will of the people on this issue.

Strengthened Red Ties Jagan used the period to strengthen his ties both with the Soviet Union and Cuba. He seized Shell Oil storage facilities and used them to store Russian gasoline. Cuba shipped in oil and flour and the Soviet Union offered long term loans and cheap prices for fertilizers ind agricultural machinery. . Jagan also offered landing Parking in the courthouse area has been a problem lor years. The city of Medford sev eral years ago made an at tempt to solve the problem by restricting parking in the li brary block to two hours. This past summer courthouse em ployees were requested to park their cars away from the imme diate courthouse area and this has further alleviated the park ing problem. As one who has enjoyed the resulting improvement of the parking situation, I am desolate to learn my pleasure has been at the cost of such great in convenience for county em ployees. (Name on me) Medford. Extravagance To the Editor: With reference to Tax Questionnaire, front page Sunday Mail Tribune, it is our opinion that the author of the questionnaire is sidestepping the real significance of the "No" vote on the tax bill. Most of us know that our in comes have their limitations and that sickness andor dis ability can affect those limits. We know that we must restrict our spending to where our in comes will cover our needs and necessities and have a little for that rainy day. We are also aware that we cannot wish our selves a raise in income and start spending it before it is a reality without hurting ourselves or someone else. When we observe the ever in creasing numbers of department of state vehicles on our roads, often one passenger to a car and often following one another; when we realize that our mon ey can be spent by the bucket fulls, to try to obtain a vote so such extravagance may be con tinued, and so a new crop of state employes can be absorb ed annually or oftener, when we note that our elected state ol- ficials can raise their own sal aries and expense accounts and can include members of their familiies in their benefits, when we observe our school transpor tation vehicles coming and go ing in every direction, after school hours and on week ends, and when we assume that the 1800 graduates that our state is reported to absorb will require their share of expense accounts and state owned vehicles, we be lieve that some of the same economy measures used at home might help if applied in our departments of state. It is Strictly Personal By Sidney J. Harris (cl Field Enlerpriaes. Inc. PERSONAL PREJUDICES One of the saddest sights in the world is a man who. at the same time, looks aged and immature; who has become gray and lined be - yond his years, and yet has not acquired me cnaractcr to match his appearance. "Giving an example" is not proof of anything, except of giving an example: we all know that one swallow does not make a summer, yet we persist in trying to prove our dubious points by Mushing a bird or two from the bushes and calling them a "flock. When parents correct or rer nmand a child, they should nev- er say. "I'm only doing it for your own good," which the child quite properly resents as smug hypocrisy; they should say, if j Fm doing i, for MY " R000- because it makes me i b.' try to make you into the kind of child I want you to oe. When a bright man wants to be Incessantly clever In con versation, he almost invari ably makes a fool of himself: his it. of which he is so proud, usually becomes the very vehicle of his downfall. Some people can refuse to do a j favor with more grace than olh- I ers can confer a favor; and we 1 would rather be refused with tact than obliged with oilv self- satisfaction. Speaking of tjprs ol person alities. I'm fond of the annony. mous definer of a "pessimist" rights to Cuban planes next door to both Venezuela and Brazil. The United States sees an in dependent Guiana under Jagan as another Cuba and its sus picions are confirmed by Jagan's own words. It has brought pressure upon Britain to see that such does not occur. On the other hand, there have been British complaints that the U.S. position destroys any chance of racial peace or national unity. also our opinion that a new tax measure would be a go signal for further extravagance. Jesse P. Elder, 3579 Table Rock road, Medford. Socialist Utopia To the Editor: Why do so many people have the erroneous idea that Russia has socialism? This is not true. The system that masquerades as socialism in Russia is one in which the po litical state owns the land and industries and the Communist bosses control the State. Tha people of Russia work for wages and have no more to say about determining the economic pol icies under which they produce than have the employees of Gen eral Motors, United States Steel, or any other American corpo ration. The police-state appar atus created under Stalin, whish has been curbed but not dis mantled by Khrushchev, was re tained to preserve this system of bureaucratic despotism. By way of contrast, under tha genuine socialism advocated by the Socialist Labor Party, there will be no bureaucrats, no pol iticians, and no political parties, not even a Socialist Labor Party after socialism is established. Administrators will have no jobs to dispense, hence no means of building up subservient follow ings. They will have the privi lege to serve, but NEVER tho power to rule. Further, the workers who elect them will have the power to recall and remove them. All power will be in the only safe place for power to be in the collective hands of the people. Under socialism there will be the strongest possible guaran tees that power will not be us urped, nor freedom destroyed. And these safeguards will be enormously strengthened by the fact that material well-being will be enjoyed by all the peo ple. It is one of the best-kept secrets of the age we live in that right now the material con ditions exist, not only for wip ing out the curse of poverty, but for insuring that every human being in the land receives an abundance in a world free from war. The profit system, now no longer serving a useful purpose, is a hangover from a simple age to which it was fitted to a com plex age to which it is not adapt ed. Lydia Burnham, 814 Warne St., Prescott. Ariz. as being "somebody who's been forced to live with an op timist." We cannot understand why ; boys generally follow the lowest ; and wildest among them, unless we recognize that bovs need a vent for their anti-social impul ses, and the leadership of such a boy allows them to give free rein to their rebelliousness with out assuming the prime respon sibility for their deeds; the bold leader is popular not because they value him in himself in the end thev desert him but because he embodies their re- Dressions. and thev are usinrj him more than he is using them.

The fatal defect with most flatterers is that they put so much cheese In the trap that there's no room left (or the mouse. i It is easier to respect a per ( son who depreciates us than one who wildly overestimates us; the former can always be sur j prised when we turn out to bo better than he thought, but the latter can only be disappointed when we fail to live up to his inflated estimate of us.
