Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY HIGH coats continue to hold down the building program here. I sat in on a meeting last night at which there was a long discussion of the de sirability of a major project. There was no seer there w ho could peer far enough lu the future to tell the ponderers whether they would sin or lose by waiting for a while before undertaking their enterprise. Tills BMiin lit monv nt har I $ It has been considering a build- f lng project for several years. It wants to buna, out it nas eeen waiting for the cost situation to Improve. Instead, it has become more serious, and the conferees now look back wistfully at the CPLET cost which they at first rejected. Now, they are bothered by the thought that per haps in another year or two. they will look back yearningly on the costs they are presently consider ing too high. It Is a tough problem, that has to be settled on the basis of the merit and value of each project proposed. From the standpoint of the general public welfare, it Is perhaps a good thing that not all jobs are being rushed Into action at once. A reservoir of work la building up that may, later on, prove to be an excellent cushion in a period of economic Blackening off. GOP Contests In Spotlight THE McKay-Hall contest and the battle between 8tassen and Dewey, both In the republican pri mary, push the democratic primary far Into the background of public attention in Oregon. The demos are puttering along with only one or two Important contests, no question about their presi dential preference, and not much appeal of any kind for public Interest. Senator McKay Is beginning to strike out more forcefully at his chief opponent in the OOP guberna torial race. He has attacked Hall's record in the legislature on gambling and liquor Issues. This, If anywhere. Is Hall's political weak spot, and the Marlon senator la reaching for It. The Oregon Voter recently published a comparison of Hall and McKay legislative action on matters pertaining to gambling and the liquor laws, and concluded that McKay has voted more consistently than his op ponent In the defense of the home. Hall, In the meantime, continues to get favorable press as the governor of the state. His recent declar ation at a governor's conference in Sacramento in favor of the elimination of state border barriers didn't do him any harm. He is walking carefully in the governorship to which he succeeded, and la mak ing few administrative or policy mistakes. Br UKOKUE E. SOKOl.SKV HE river Elbe is the dividing Hue between east and west in Euroi. between tit Teuton and the Slav, between what Toynbee calls the Western Christian and the Eastern Orthodox civilisations. Rising in Bohemia, It passes through some of the most Important areas of Chechoslovakia and Ger many. Into it flows the Moldau. the Wel.sswa.vier, the Eger. It passes throush the beautiful "Saxon Switzerland." where Frederick the Great fought one of his most important battles. It touches on Dresden, Wltteivberg, Magdeburg, and Hamburg and finally flows into the North Sea off Cuxhaven. It was at Hamburg, between the Elbe and the Alster, that Charlemagne built a fortress in 808 to keep out the Slav and Norseman. The church he erected three years later became the heart of one of the great centers for Christian missionary activ ity not only among the Slavs but also In Jutland, the Danish Isles and Sweden and Norway. Hamburg became under the Holstclns one of the most Important commercial cities In Northern Eu rope and a thriving center of Hanscatlc activity. It has ever been a dividing line between European and Slav, Between Europe and Eurasia. Bohemia it self Is the dividing kingdom between east and west. and the Moldau. where It flows Into the Elbe, on the Saxon border, is in the western part of that country. The Hard Cora AND so in 1948. the Elbe marks the westernmost movement of the Russian thrust Into Europe, the farthest penetration without war. Here they have encountered the hard core of European civili sation which is Christianity, in lu Catholic and Protestant expressions. Here they encountered not politics and economies but religion a power that resists evil most when evil seems to be most tri umphant. The Italian election is a case In point. Whereas the communists may shout, "Fraud!" "American dollars," the fact remains that the Italians responded to the direct, religious challenge of the pope. It became an election for God or the devil. At no time was the question at stake In doubt; priests were cam. paignlng for the survival of their faith. Against that power. In hard times, Italy responded valiant ly for God. This election is one of the most decisive In European history. And curiously, the Russians have accepted its re sults as decisive. All the talk of strikes and up risings was dissipated once the results were In, for the Russians, guided by historical materialism, recog nized their defeat as not being accidental but as a repetition of the results of every effort that the eastern orthodox civilization has made to overwhelm the western Christian civilization. The east has often moved westward but It has always encountered this hard core and has always lost the battle and receded to its own steppes. Europe remains Europe and Europe is not merely a geographical expres sion; it is a civilization. SIDE GLANCES 1 Wnl COPS IW IV Wt ll.VlCt. IbC. T ' If . 2 0 "I could be making nil kinds of money, but my parent! fixed that I have to sit with my own brother and sister!" The Doctor Says- Early Diagnosis For Cancer Question ONE thing that is bothering some people: Will Hall, the governor- In his own right, be the kind of governor he is in the present circumstances, under which he holds the office without being elected to It? Or will he, once elected to the office, be a governor along the lines of his legislative career? There are many people who can find no fault with Hall aa governor, but didn't admire him as a legislator. They are searching for the answer to those questions. Tha Invisible Wall THE Ottoman Turks encountered the same ex perience when they moved Into Europe. They were able to conquer In the Balkans but when they reached the gates of Vienna, they came up against the European core of religious faith which stood like an invisible wall against them. It stemmed the tide and although the Osmanli continued for centuries aiterwards. thriving on slavery, their crea tive force had spent Itself. The Arabs, earlier, en countered the same core at the battle of Tours (732) when Charles Maptel. representing Western Christ Unity, defeated Abdar-Rahman. Gibbon speculates on what might have happened had the Arab won the battle of Tours: "A victorious line of march had been prolonged above a thousand miles from the Rock of Gibraltar to the banks of the Loire; the repetition of an equal space would have carried the Saracens to the confines of Poland and the highlands of Scotland: the Rhine is not more impassable than the Nile or Euphrates, and the Arabian fleet might have sailed without a naval combat into the mouth- of the Thames. Perhaps the interpretation of the Koran would now be taught in the schools of Oxford, and her pulpits might demonstrate to a circumcised people the sanctity and truth of the revelation of Mahomet." By EDWIN r. JORDAN. M. D. Written for NEA Service About one-fifth of all cancers in women originate in the breast the most common location of cancer in women. When discovered early, good results can be anticipated. With early diagnosis and prompt treat ment. 75 to 80 per cent can be cured Cancer o( the breast is rare before the age of 25. It is more common between 45 and 55. Alter 55 it be comes less frequent again. In the early state there Is not 1'kelv to be any oaln. burning or other sensat'on. Some flntten'nit nf a portion of the breast Is suspicious. Anv Irreirulnritv which had not been nresent before also calls for attention.

(To the Editor) People endeavoring to clean up Klamath Falls do not seem to get much cooperation. The writer has recently had occa sion to reseed a strip of lawn lrom the sidewalk to his front porch but It was constantly being ruined by peop:j Insisting on taking short cuts across the lawn instead of keeping to the walks, so yesterday a wire was put up as a temrjorarv fen,-. tn discourage the practice. This morn ing the wire was missing. There seems to be a certain ele ment In this city that resents any "ort towards a clean and decent appearance as indicated by the tendency to throw papers, bottles and what have you on the lawns and parking along the streets. While on this subject, I might call attention to the fact that some of the alleys are occupied by shacks surrounded by rubbish and are not fit for habitation. Besides being a fire hazard, they are a menace to health. Garbage is often left uncov ered near these places for days. As to the last named conditions, I leave It to the reader tn rt in clusions as to the responsibility in this matter. W. P. Howard. 411 N. 9th St. When a lump In the breast !s found which might be cancerous, a small piece of the tumor should be removed and examined under the mlcro-sroe. If the microscopic ex amination proves the presence of cancerous cells, then the tumor and the breast as well should be re moved as soon as possible. When done early there is a good chance of complete cure. If the early signs and symptoms are neglected until the enncer cells have spread to the glands in the armpit or else where, cures ran still be obtained, but not so many. Cancer of the breast offers a par ticularly good opportunity to make an earlv diagnosis and to perform a thoroughly satisfactory surgical re moval. Because the chances are so flood, it Is mast unfortunate when women who have the slightest sus picion of breast trouble put off their visit to the doctor because they are afraid mat they might be told that tnev have a cancer. Delay Is, gen erally very serious. . The Doctor Answers QUESTION: How many peonle bit born with their hearts on the rlRht side of their bodies and how lon do thev live? ANSWER: Actually there are about as manv hearts on the right side of the chest as on the left. If there are no other abnormalities. It generally does not Interfere with life expectancy.

Si'clba Is head of (he country'! ptince lorces, ov virtue of his r cabinet post. He was moved to give his warn ing by fear that the public might be lulled Into a feeling of serur Ity becnuse of the election re sults. "When vou have In the house as many romimi- p.w.ti Mocbbnii lists as we do" (some 30 per rent of the voters cast their ballots for the rommunlst-lrri popular front i, he said, "you cannot ever be safe against all attempts at violence. ... I am still convinced that If a favorable occasion turned up. the communists would not (all to take advantage of It and that they would do everything they rould to dominate the eouniry." Sound Advice Thai's sound advice (or Italy, and I'.'s equally sound for every other country, for we are dealing with world revolution. There's only one vav for the democracies to meet this menace, and thnt Is tn battle It to a finish. Individually and collectively and never relax vi'illance. The trouble Is (hat every time thfre Is a lull In Ihe bolshrvln of fensive wishful thinkers let Iheir fears die down. Some sav: "It won't happen here." Others want to send ar emissary tn Stalin, bearing frankincense and soft words. In an effort tn apiense him. The answer to all this Is Hint H ran happen here, and we saw apiwascmrnt tried on Hitler. Fortunately, so far as conrern Joint defense the democracies are swinging Into action with encour aging eneruy. Communist bolilnes as dlMilaycri In Ihe raie of Cerho.
