Every ao often you pick up a
Pacific Coaat paper and read thai
one of our major cities is having
an air raid drill to see how well
and how fast the local gentry
can get themselves into a place of
safety.
On the whole the tests aren't
much good and prove very little
except that equipment refuses to
work, wardens are misinformed
the clocks are off and fifty percent
of the people are deaf.
I suppose the time will come
wnen we u nave wen vuuugu vi
ganiied CD unit here thai we'll
have to put up with drills again.
When thai time comes a lot of
things will be revealed. The most
pertinent of which being that the
average adult would rather get
, his head blown off than appear in
what he considers a ridiculous sit
uation. And your average citizen
tas if there could be such a thing)
- considers crouching against a wall
with his arms shielding his face
to be a ridiculous situation. The
minute he gets in the position he
starts sneakng a few peaks over
the elbow to see if everyone
Is in the correct posture. And all
he sees are myriads of guilty eyes
focusd on him to see If be is
.obeying the ordinance.
m Sure, it would be swell if every
one would be a good boy and do
"ts he la told. But It won't do any
good to try. Even during the ac
tual attack Mr, Average Jerk will
snap his head up to make sure
his posture isn't too ridiculous.
Probably just in time to pick up
a piece, of shrapnel between the
eyes or get a good radiation burn
or whatever it is you gel from A
and H bombs.
Then you can sit around with
the remaining relatives and dis
cuss the sad fate of Uncle Elmer
and curse the horrors of war. And

Would anybody like to have a
college choir sing for them?
We refer to the Humboldt State
College choir. Here's a chance to
see if they sing as well as they
play football. (Humboldt handed
Oregon Tech one of its three foot-'
ball defeats last fall, and it s even
up. one and one, in basketball
you'll remember.)
There's an opportunity to get the
Humboldt choir because a Grants
Pass engagement, in its spring
tour, has been cancelled. The- dale
is March 6, a Thursday. :
It's a 37-volce choir. To get them
here would require making ar
rangements for the concert, of
course, and providing housing for
the students 16 boys and 21 girls.
That's all. "
Anyone interested in sponsoring
fame, call yours truly.
If your're hazy about Humboldt,
it's one of the California junior col
leges. It's located at Areata, on
Humboldt Bay, near Eureka not at
Arcadia, near the race track. '
Don't let this mention dim your
sights on the appearance of Andy
Loney's world champion trumpet
player.
Rafael Mendez, the Babe Ruth of
trumpet players, will appear in
concert with the KUHS band and
a cappella choir on April 4, a Fri
day. Mendez also will work with stu
dent musicians the next day. In
addition to being the world's fore
most trumpet soloist, he's a movie
and television star.

Two of them live In and work in.

Shannon, the housewife, lives out

woman's work Is in the home, then
the works outside, too.)
Here's one concrete answer on
the question: Would a larger cor

somewhere in the city an air raid
warden will blow his brains out
in despair because he feels that he
has failed in his Job of teaching
the people how to survive. He'll
go on to his reward never real
ising, Just because he was a con
scientious soul from the start, that a
man died not through lack of
training but through inate stupid
ity. The poor cluck.
Oh well, when the time comes
I don't suppose the crack of doom
would alert the great mass of the
people anyway, so why worry
about It?
If our city-proposed system goes
through to put advertising on the
parking meters in town I wonder
if a firm could be organized to
sponsor signs for the last meter
in each block? A sign that would
say:
Keep in your own lane, you jerk!
It wouldn't do any harm and
might do a little something to ease
the traffic situation. Although it
is getting much better. More and
more drivers are beginning to
move over to the correct lane
when approaching a corner so
that you can go straight through
if you're in a hurry.
Fishing season must be just
around the corner. The sporting
goods houses are taking 'out the
displays of skis' and hockey sticks
and shotguns and putting in win
dows filled with fishing roads,
nets, creels, flies, lines, waders,
camp stoves and all the other
paraphernalia that goes with the
art of fishing. Now all the ang
lers have to do is wait for the
snow to go off the roads enough
and the mud to dry up enough
that thev can get back Into the
creeks and rivers where the big
ones arc.

That's not often the deciding fac
tor, but it does happen. You could
assume that it would have a bear

at times too.
Our secret operative No. 7 re
ported that after the panel went
off the air, both proponents of the
Stay Out of the City theme said:
Oh yes, the time will come, and
it won't be long, when we should
join the city but we're not quite
ready yet.
Doing without advertising is like
winking at a pretty girl in the
dark. You know what you're doing,
but nobody else does.
Timber Access
Roads Sought
WASHINGTON Wl More tim
ber access roBds are needed in the
Pacific Northwest, an Oregon lum
ber expert tola a Senate subcom
mittee Thursday.
W. D. Hagenstein. forest engi
neer for Pacific Northwest Forest
Industries, said Congress should
authorize 30 million dollars a year
for five years for such roads in
national forests.
He told a Senate public works
subcommittee that prime timber is
going to waste because loggers
can't reach It. He added that the
average annual timber cut in West
ern Washington and Oregon na
tional forests was only 56 per cent
of the allowable harvest under
sound forestry principles during
the last 10 years.
"The public forests are not con
tributing their share to the forest
products needs of the citizens of
the United States," he said.
Hagenstein, who is from Port
and. said that the lumber industry
would build many of the needed
roads, if the government would sell
timber in larger blocks.
He commented that the federal
aid highway bill now being con
sidered would authorize 32 million
dollars a year for forest highways
and 28 trillions annually for forest
development roads or trails, much
of the money to be used for main
tenance purposes.

NEW YORK Lfl Some years
ago I started the pleasant custom
of kissing all the girls in the office
on my oirtnciay.
I don't know where I got the
Idea, but It's a wonderful Ymse
for a fine pastlrtie.
My boss has never cared for the
practice, however. particulars
since the year he came out and
caugnt me closing in on a winded
secretary who had run five times
around the water cooler trying to
get away.
This week I was 41. and there
were no thrilling chases around the
water cooler. The girls were good
sports enough to realize I am not
up to that sort of thing anvmore.
They came up to my desk one
after the other, said "happy birth
day," and gamelv submitted to
their annual punishment. One of
the rewards of being 41. I noticed,
was that four out of five pecked
me on the cheek.
Sample dialogue:
Parley
First girl "Oh. eo ahead nrt
kiss him. It's no worse than if he
was your own grandfather."
Second girl "Well. I'm new
around here. If I got to kiss old
iosiis to hold this job I'm under
paid."
I looked out the window, and it
was snowing Just as it was the
day of my birth. When I remarked
on this to a friend, he said:
"That isn't snow coming down
it's your second childhood."
Brrrrrrrr! What an unhealthy
thought.
How does It really feel to be 41?
When I was 21. full of the timeless
snobbery of the young. I was cer
tain that people over 40 didn't
really have any feelings left at all.
Tbey were merelv sad charac
ters, plodding wistfully through the
fog of lost dreams.
The day I was 40 I still felt
pretty much the same way. Life
hadn't looked so depressing since
I lost my first true love In kinder
garten. Gradually, however, and some
what to my surprise. I found that
being 40 wasn't altogether a crime
against nature. And I learned there
were even some compensations for
Communist negotiators at Pan
munjom naturally would like Unit
ed Nations spokesmen to commit
our side to a postwar poltical
conference, with Formosa and the
issue of Chinese Red entry into
the UN on the agenda.
Thus far our representatives have
not accepted any such terms, and
there is no sign that they will, pro
vided they can recognize them at
all times. For the Communists have
a talent for phrases containing con
cealed jokers.
Actually, a satisfactory armistice
could be had without settlement of
the question whether to call a later
conference and UN negotiators
ought to Insist on leaving this Item
out, rather than haggling over it
indefinitely or making risky con
cessions. -
The idea of a conference is per
fectly all right, so long as Its pro
spectve agenda is not frozen in
favor of the Communists.
Beat Way
The best way to assure that is
to let the eventual diplomatc con
ferees themselves determine the
program, Instead of putting that
responsibilty in the hands of mili
tary men at Panmunjom.
But however the agenda is fixed,
we must make certain that it re
flects our own major concerns in
Korea and the Far East. We have
a right to insist on international
guarantees of any Korean settle
ment, so we don't have to contem
plate renewal of the conflict at
some future date.
And any discussion of Korea can
hardly ignore the issue of achieving
a unified naton from the Yalu
River to Pusan.
Apparently U. S. officials In
Washington are now adhering firm
ly to these points. They go further.
They would Insist that a future coir
ference be widened to Include not
Just the present Korean belligerents
but all nations with a stake In Far

the" disaster.
At 41 you wake up in the morn
ing with no worse a taste in your
mouth than at 17. You Just have
'to hack a little harder to clear you
throat
At 41 you find yourself leading
a slightly better life. Ii would be
nice lo credit this to the slow
growth ol character, but the truth
is probably that you Just have
wearied of the old treadmill of your
small vices and dull dissipations.
At 41 you just begin to enjoy
tills new sense of virtue, because
you realize that being virtuous is
much more relaxing than being sin
tul. Succumbing to temptation after
40 Isn't play it's hard work, and
hard work is for the young.
At 41 you feel normal. You don't
envy young people. You feel sorry
for them, knowing all the prob
lems they must meet, before they
achieve the balanced wisdom of
middle age.
Prime
But at 41, of course, you don't
feel middle-aged. You begin to
think of middle-aged people as
those over 65. You? Why. you're
just coming Into your prime.
At 41 you still feel young of heart
but you do have to learn to face
the fact of what you see in the
mirror.
Everv once in a while as vou
shave you get a weird sense of
mystery.
"Is that my face?" you think.
"Why it looks like my dad's face
did when I was a boy."
And you wonder whether vou are
shaving yourself or your father.
ai 41 your senses are more alive
than at 30. You feel the small
pleasures of life more clearly the
awakening from sleep, the aound
of a bird, the intoxication of a sun
set, the storm and sunshine of a
child's face.
At 41 you see the world In softer
focus. And you still have a big am
bition left you want to be 42.
Yes, at 41, you say, "it must ne
epulslve to be 21. I wouldn't be
that young again for $1,000,000."
And at 41 you might as wen
keep right on telling yourself that.
There isn't anything you can do
aoout it.
Eastern peace.
That might Include Japan, India,
Burma, Indonesia, Siam and Indo
china. Painful Point
More Importantly, American dip
loma's would demand that a broad
dened conference deal with such
painful and long-standing questions
as the guerrilla warfare sparked
by Communists in Indo-China, Ma
laya and the Phllllppnes.
There is no earthly reason why
it should be proper to discuss For
mosa, an island the Chinese think
we menace, and not talk about
Indochina, a land we are convinced
they threaten.
Future political discussions could
well include one more UN demand:
That any decisions arrived at In
regard to general Far Eastern Is
sues be not linked directly to a
Korean settlement. In other words,
the maintenance of peace In Korea
should not be made to hinge on
what we do about Formosa or what
the Reds do about Indocbna.
As an issue, Korea Is a thing
apart, and It cannot be made the
subject of diplomatic trading. If we
can stick to all these guns, we
shall not likely be In danger of
losing any further ground to the
Communists In Asia at least not
around the council table.
The big question' Is, of course,
whether the Reds for their part
will find it possible to stomach so
decent and fair a general settle
ment. The proofs are still lacking.

Is Indian
Jurisdiction
Switch OK?
By HALE SCARBROl'GH
A transfer of jurisdiction of the
Klamath Indians from the federal
government to the State of Oregon
may be In the making, but there
is one school of thought on the res
ervatlon aganst It that the propo
sal Is piecemeal and not the com
plete break from the restrictions of
governmental paternalism the In
dans should be entitled.
Last week a conference was held
at Salem with Indian Service off!
clals, state officials, and men from
Uie Klamath reservation in attend'
ance. The upshot was that - an
tight-man committee was named to
study the . request of the Tribal
Council for transfer of jurisdiction
The Tribal Council voted last De
cember to Instruct its official reo-
resent stives to take Initial steps in
negotiating a plan to transfer the
responsibility now held by tne rea
era! government over reservation
and Indian matters to the state.
Few Vetc
The vote was as for, t against:
a very small percentage of approx
imately 440 adults on the reserva
tion entitled to vote. But, under
the rules of the Tribal Council, ap
parently It is binding.
Any plan of transfer of jurlsdlc
approval of the Tribal Council
again and also of the Congress.
Presumably It would also have to
have the approval of the Oregon
Legislature.
About three or four years ago a
bill was Introduced in Congress to
liquidate the reservation, dissolve
the wardship in which the Klam
aths have been held for 87 years
and give the Indians their full free
dom. It was opposed by the Tribal
council ana nas never come up
for vote In Congress.
Then last year a wimarawai diii
was Introduced in Congress, to al
low Indleldual members of the
Tribe, to voluntarily withdraw from
the tribe and allowing them to
take out a major percentage of
their share of the tribal worth.
That bill was referred to the Bu
reau of Indian Affairs for report,
and still rests there.
Third Facet
The proposal for a transfer of
Jurisdiction from the federal gov
ernment to the state Is a third
facet of the whole continuing en
deavor for a softening of regula
tions applying to the Indians.
The theory of the Indians attend
ing the Salem conference last week
was that the Indians should be
come free citizens, but should keep
their treaty hunting and fishing
rights and keep the reservation In
tact, operating its business as a co
operative. That nrnnosat nrobablv will draw
strong opposition from members of
Strong opposition ironi iiimiw "
the tribe who want to get out en -
tlrelv. There Is talk now of
mending a reservation-wide secret
ballot vote on the subject, claiming
that the J-8 vote of the Tribal
Council might not have been rep
resentative. Burning Truck

when we first went there you
could smoke In your room; Willi
the door closed and a window open.
There waa one dreary golden oak
cubicle off the lobby marked
"Smoking Room." Otherwise you
smoked outdoors, and If you could
not get out It was Just too bad
for a smoker.
Nobody broke the rule because
the place was policed by a self-
appointed gealapo thai caught you
oeiore a inaicn was ugiueu. TO
carry matches wan reason to be
suspected and tailed by nice old
laaiea wnost waking mission in

out of the pure air of this sani

Anyway they called tt pure. It
was pure to the extent that the
old gala were as pure of limb and
mng as oi neart. on the heart
acore l had no question. -The
only chance fresh air had
to enter the public rooms waa
when a wheel chair got caught In
the doorway, and the door was
held open that frightful 45 aecomls.
Which signalled a scurry for wraps
and mufflers, to a chorus of "oh

radiator fleet.
Like as not next dav you'd hear
that old Mrs. Cornbloom was con
fined lo her room from being In
a draft. And Uncle Geniie's bron
chial asthma had flared up again.
SMOKE HNKAK'
So to anrak outside for a smoke
you had to be constantly conscious
of the draft age which there
abouts was 80. A fine time was
when the gtstapo waa occupied by
the arrival at the desk of a new
comer: who, If blonde, risked be
ing rated a "hussy from New
York" until they opined that she
might be the new hair dresser:
with whom they would have no
truck at all. having no hair to do
not of their own.
Anyway, while the desk was the
center of attraction, you slithered
through Uie door. Then, though well
off the porch, you heard Miss Ter
ryberry trying to talk to Mrs. An
struther who was very deaf. She
was pointing at you and aaylng:
"That's thai Tripp man. He
smokes."
"Who'd you say was his folks?"
asks the deaf one.

A few years age some of us

Ity to advocate this country have
one political parly.
Mrs. O'Brien begins Iter article,
and I quote:
"Soinetmra I wonder what la
really accomplished by Ihe differ
ent political parties. Now, If there i
was -only one parly, but several
nominees regardless nf party affili
ation, let the best man win."
Then she ends her article with
the question:
"What la the difference between
the two parties anyway, perhaps
question of tariff, which could b
Ironed out In Congress."
No, Mrs. O Hrlen. Having two po
litical parlies does not mrun to me
a question of tariff. It ineana a
representative form of government,
which we the American people en
Joy. Not a one-party totalitarian
government like Russia haa.
It means to me the power of free
rotlng to keep this a government!
of the people, for the people, by
the people.
And, Ood willing, we will keep It
that way,
