Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
K' LAMATH'S remarkable suburban develop
ment is cited as an example of a city's
, fringe and its problems in an article appearing
In the Oregon Business Review
' under the by-line of Dr. Daniel
1 D. Cage, associate professor of
i business administration at the
University of Oregon.
; Said Dr. Gage about this
community:
! "According to the census,
Klumath Kalis grew but slight
ly from 1930 to 1940. Actual
ly the 'city' had a very sub
stantial growth in population;
but a large part of it, some
8000 people, was in the Alta- EPLEY
mont district of Klamath county, on either
side of the highway approaches to the city
proper. This outside growth not only disturbs
land used within the city, but it brings with
it a host of problems in regard to public health,
equitable tax levies, school facilities, police
and fire protection."
That's all Dr. Gage had to' sav about the
local situation specifically, but his article is
devoted to a discussion of the general problems
mentioned, particularly the decentralization of
business as well as residential development.
Blame the Auto
HE points out that the automobile has more
to do with this situation than anything
else.
There have to be terminal facilities for the
private conveyance of the automobile user if
he can't find it in the downtown district of a
city, he will find it somewhere else. Fore
sighted retailers, sensing this - demand, have
been locating business where automobile park
ing can be provided. Furthermore, the un
loaded users of transportation pedestrians
are likewise annoyed and inconvenienced by
downtown traffic congestion.
"If cities want to retain some of their former
downtown districts, then it is incumbent upon
somebody to provide parking facilities off the
street and out of the paths of pedestrians on
their way to make purchases," said Dr. Gage.
Dr. Gage mentions, the usual things that are
done parking meters, wider streets, signals,
safety islands, walkways, pedestrian zones, etc.,
as "palliatives." He says some of these have
contributed to the pedestrian problems rather
than helped solve them.
Basic
HE advances the thought that zoning not
just inside the city, but outside as well
may be found as a basic solution, though not
necessarily the means of preventing decentral
ization. Its purpose is to control rather than
to prevent.
"Zoning," he says, "confines commercial uses
to one part of the city, industrial to another,
residential to another, etc. It prevents one
from encroaching on the other and disturbing
values. Zoning can be made flexible so expan
sion can take place, but at the same time can
be controlled."
: He points out that while zoning is generally
being applied in cities (it is used in Klamath
Falls) it has not been extended to any extent
beyond city boundaries. "When zoning hampers
individuals they go outside the city limit, and
down totters the attempt of zoning to develop
an orderly pattern," he says.
Dr. Gage's concluding paragraph:
"In conclusion, we may say that, while the
disintegration of our commercial and residential
centers is deplorable, we must recognize that
perhaps decentralization is. the inevitable result
of the extensive use of the automobile. We can
do one of three things: (1) do nothing and let
the decentralization run rampant; (2) curb the
use of the automobile; or (3) provide city and
extra-city zoning to keep decentralization with
in limits. The last appears to be the most
logical."
Morse on Communists
SENATOR WAYNE MORSE, who has been
pretty much in the news lately, has sent
us copies of communications he has recently
exchanged with a Mrs. Ray Thomas of Salem,
who claims to speak for Salem communists.
The senator said in his letter to this news- '
paper that he wasn't sure the Thomas letter
was not a phony, but he has answered it never
theless. Below are the wire from Mrs. Thomas and
the senator's reply:
WESTERN UNION TELEGRAM
, , May 27. 1948
Senator Wayne Mori
Washington, D. C.
Dear Senator Morse: The communist party
of Salem requested me ta wirs ,
that you oppose all anti strike and other anti
labor legislation now pending.
MRS. RAY THOMAS.
WESTERN UNION TELEGRAM
Mrs. Ray Thomas,
Salem, Ore.
You may tell the representative of com
munist party, if jn fact there are any in
Salem, that any vote I cast on labor legis
lation in senate of United States will not be
bated on any advice or desire of communist
party. My stand and votes on labor legisla
tion pending before senate 1 motivated en
tirely by my desire to protect civil liberties
and individual rights guaranteed to every
cltisen in this country by the American bill
of rights. The communists seek to destroy
those rights and seek to substitute for in
dividual liberty in this country state control
and domination of the life of every person.
I shall oppose that totalitarian philosophy
with all the vigor that I can mutter.
WAYNE MORSE, U. S. S.
This little exchange of wires is interesting
because it afforded the senator a chance to
express his opinions on communist philosophy.
News Behind The News
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, June 7 Messrs. Bevin,
Molotov and Byrnes have now spoken
their peace pieces of the conference interim
and are packing their bags for the June IS
resumption in Paris. Mr. Byrnes spoke with
hope, Mr. Bevin with chagrin and Mr. Molotov
with recriminations. The hopes and chagrin
of the United States and Britain therefore are
facing the recriminations of Russia for the
new meeting. Of the three Molotov spoke
least hopefully. Indeed he Ignored hope en
tirely. Therefore the council of the ministers
will be resumed with a rhetorical firming of
the stalemate he caused in the previous meet
ings. Various interpretations are being prominently
exposed to the American people. The most
sedate American newspaper presented the Bevin
speech as "a picture of gloom, bewilderment
and resentment against the Soviet Union," al
' though it seemed exactly the opposite to me,
and probably was a stronger statement of de
termination to resist "handing every country
in the world over to the Soviet system" (his
interpretation of what Russia wants) than that
of Mr. Byrnes who only effused hope without
furnishing any substance for it. This may
be due to the longer experience of British and
socialists in dealing intimately and unsuccess
fully with communists for many long years,
whereas we have only lately been required to
take up that task, or to personalities, or other
reasons.
Gloom Prevails
BEHIND all this is the major inside question
of whether a strong policy or a weak one
is best in negotiations. Actually we have tried
both without any material success. But our
officials and the people now are troubling
themselves about such matters as fear of war,
and in their desire to avoid any possibility of
it, are falling into fearful misconceptions of
what the situation today really and truly is.
and have lapsed into some general degree of
"gloom, bewilderment and resentment" by any
estimate. I venture to suggest they are mis
reading the inner actualities, to wit:
Russia wants war less than anyone. She is
merely playing upon our desires and fears for
her own diplomatic ends. She cannot feed or
equip her own people for some years yet. She
cannot even think of anything military except a
short campaign which could not long be suc
cessful against United Nations planes and navies.
War is really unthinkable for her. now but
not for three, five or 10 years from now.
The time to take a stronger diplomatic stand
against advancement toward a communist em
pire of the world is now. This is the time to
stop the war by fullest diplomatic firmness,
not later when her empire has grown strong
and is able to store and equip itself for world
conflict. Instead, we are promoting a tendency
to advertise the futility of hopes without sub
stance, to yearn for some sort of compromise
or appeasement to "satisfy" Russia, and gain
time, whereas time will work her way, eventual
ly giving her the atom bomb for instance.

Red Technique
THIS is the very thing Russia wants us to do.
Her adamant and belligerent foreign policy
is a familiar communist diplomatic technique,
indeed is the same theory used by Hitler be
fore Munich and afterward, when he played
himself up to war making strength upon our
fears and hopes for peace, although he could
have been stopped by a firm stand anywhere
along that way.
In short, we have worked ourselves into a
state of mind ripe for Russian plucking, or
have been worked into it by her adamant and
belligerent resistance to our peace hopes. If
it gains her compromises which will afford
power in those nations which have rejected
her at the ballot box, or in other nations where
communists are ambitious or even enough
power in them to get a communist in as an in
terior minister where he will have charge of
the secret police and future elections, she will
win. But if she fails to scare us into appease
ment, as Hitler did, and merely succeeds in
preventing a joint peace and causing us to
mope about the "failure of the peace," and to
be "bewildered" and "confused," she will have
won her alternate desire, namely the weaken
ing of our foreign policy, by undermining it at
home.
That's her inside game. Our people just
have not dealt with - the communists long
enough to know them. On the other hand, if
we can get off the defensive and away from
confused sorrow about lost hopes, and make a
few demands for ourselves as to bases and our
rights (we should be demanding more than we
want) and otherwise asserting ourselves affirm
atively, we might loosen the bonds which are

Today
By DeWITT MacKENZIE
AP Foreign Affairs Analyst
The up-shot of Britain's two
dny nailliiiucntary debate on
foreliin relations would appear
to bo the momentous decision
that appeasement ot Russia is
out thu window Mid on this
both the aoi-iallst iiovernment
and its conservative opposition
are an rood.
This is by way ot being a
curtain-raiser for the resump
tion of tho deadlocked confer
ence of tho Dig Four foreiitn
ministers in Paris next woek.
John Bull is said to havo made
up his mind that If tho parley
fails to reach a compromise on
the European peace treaties,
then these pacts should be con
sidered by the 21 other bellig
erents of the United Nations
Irrespective of Russia's views.
And that's, powerful medicine.
"Appeasement" Is a word that
has a fearsome nml bitter sig
nificance for England. It's
synonymous with disaster a
reminder of the part which
me late prima Miuislor Cham
herlain's attempts to anpease
Hitler played In precipitating
the second World War.
Chamberlain Recalled
I know how deep that feel
ing Is in war-rucked Itritaln, for
1 followed Chainlierluin about
as ho made his various appeals
until the fuehrer's Munich tri
umph which gave Germany n
slice of little Ctcchoslovakln and
encouraged the nail chief tn
further demands. And not lonu
ago at the Nuernberg trials Ger
man Field Marshal Wilhelm
Keltel testified that Hitler would
have backed down at Munich
if the western allies had stood
firm. The dictator was flabber
gasted at the concession hand
ed him on a platter, and
promptly grubbed for mure.
So England is afraid of "ap
peasement." In Wednesday's de
bate In tho house of commons
former Prime Minister Church
ill voiced the common British
fear that "the seeds of a new
world war are being sown" in
tho areas under Russian Influ
ence In eastern Europe.
He also said in his dramatie
way that although a united
world is desirable, "It Is also
belter to have a world divided
than a world destroyed." It Is
to avoid the development of
conditions which will foster war
that Britain has decided to
eschew trouble-brewing appease
ment. Russia Wants Peace
Now let's not misunderstand
this situation. It should bo cm
phusizcd that Russia is Just as
anxious for peace as are the
other allies. She wants to get
about the business of repairing
the terrible ravages of tho war.
No understanding person
charges that the Soviet Union
Is deliberately sowing dragon's
teeth In eastern Europe. Hut
the point is that, in her efforts
to ensure alr-tielit . ..-, ,riiu
against another upheaval like
the Hitlerian conflict, and to
spread communism, Russia is
creating conditions which the
western allies consider danger
ous not only to themselves but '
to Europe as a whole. Their
fear is not that Moscow Is de-'
tcrmined on war. but that three
conditions might precipitate
trouble.
