Nine months ago United Nations negotiators sat down with Com munist spokesmen to begin truce talks in the' Korean war. Probably no such talks have ever taken so long, or proved so unproductive. Our negotiators lately appear to ha'e been operating under the theory that unproductive talks are better than no talks at all. Whether this is really so is a question we end our companions in he UN ought now to examine seriously. Realistically we have to acofttt the fact that we are in a potentially dangerous position. We cannot calmly assume that stalemated peace negotiations are to our ad vantage, any more than stalemated military onerations are necessarily good for us. ' It would be pretty foolhardy at this stage to predict glibly that a settlement is in. early prospeot- or in prospect at all. If no real agree ment is to be acheived. then what .have we gained by this painful process of talking with the Reds? We have reduced the fighting to minmum and thus cut casual ties aharply. . Yet that very gain carries within It seeds of danger . For during this convenient lull the Communists have built up a strong defensive air force, vastly improved their anti-arcraft emplace ments, augmented their regular ar tillery and constructed defenses in depth. In other words, they have gone far toward recovering or sur passing the military potential they But employers still didn't have to and asks for the order he ll get j bargain with a union. President Ichanged that with the Wagner Act j which compelled employers to bar gain. But the Wagner Act didn't say unions had to bargain in good faith and employers now did the com plaining, thev said the act was loaded for labor unions, me situa tion remained unchanged until 1947 when the ReDubllcans got control of Congress.

T,e Democrats made repeal ot T-H a plant in tneir una party platform. They won back control of Congress that year and have had it since. But they 'haven't re pealed T-H. With the Wagner Act, the gov ernment got neck-deep in laoor management relations. With T-H it was empowered to. Intervene even more because T-H covers so much more territory. And T-H restored some of the old injunctive powers of the courts, but with a limit. It said when a strike threatened the national wel fare, the President could get a court order slopping it for 80 days. If there still was no settlement bv then, the union could strike. So T-H doesn't permit an injunction forbidding a strike. It only delays a strike. Why didn't Congress write Into T-H injunctive power to deeper in both their llve3. He scixed the steel uiaustry in stead of using the T-H 'Uijuncllon to deluy tor another 80 days a s,rike which the workers them selves already had delayed for three months.

In rec ognition of this, National Hearing Week will be observed this year from May 4 to 10, and several col umns this week wiil therefore be devoted to the problem of better hearing. Hearing difficulties are not rare; H is said that one person out of ten needs some kind of hearing help, but it is encouraging that so mucn is being done to prevent difficulty and to ald those who do have some hearing troubles. An Interesting report on a con servation of hearing program for school children comes from Hart ford County, Maryland. During the three-year period of a survey, 70 per cent of the children in the county's schools were screened for hearing defects. About one child out of seven, among the 7000 tested, failed to have perfect hearing as shown by the original test and was referred for further study. , Out of the 1118 youngsters who failed the original test, 712 showed a certain type of hearing defect called chronic conduction deafness, which was nearly always associ ated with phronlc or acute Infec tions of the upper Breathing tract most commonly, infected tonsils end adenoids. One hundred-ninety children had their tonsils and adenoids re moved, though this number waa only about one-third of those for whom it had been recommended. Of those for whom this proce dure was done, about seven out of 10 showed definite improvement in bearing. Only about three out of 10 of those for whom It was recommended, but was not done, showed any hearing improvement. The degree of hearing Improv ment was about the same in older tnd in younger children. 6o there seems to be no reason for waiting to have the tonsils and adenoids removed to conserve hearing, if removal is otherwise indicated, merely because a child is older. In other words, the op eration should not be postponed merely in the hope of improve ment. This experience is only one of several attempts to conserve hear ing. It is, of course, better to save good hearing than to try to treat it once it has gone bad, and there fore, efforts to do this should be encouraged. In closing this column. I should like to mention the fact that the American Hearing Society (817 14th St.. N. W., Washington 5, D. C.) is a national headquarters for information relating to hear ing. The Volta Bureau (1537 35th) St.. N. W.. Washington 7. D. C.) also distributes pamphlets on this subject. Death Takes Dr. Yincil PORTLAND W Funeral serv- ces will be held here Saturday for Dr. Frank H. Vinci), who prac ticed medicine in Roseburg for many years. Vmcil. 69. died Wednesday in the Portland Veterans Hospital. He has lived here since retirement in 1946. A native of St. Louis, he prac ticed in Roseburg from 1906 to 1917. He served as a captain In World War I then went to Astoria where he practiced until 1946. He was active in Masonic and American Legion circles. A newspaper, like the community it reflects, is the sum of those who make it and something more. It has a vitality of Its own. There is no reason why good newspapers and good towns should fail to grow together endlessly. even though those who make them must grow old themselves and die. FREEDOM The one thing a newspaper must have to endure Is freedom. Ameri ca has bad a free press ever since its founding. That is the only rea son why today it has the greatest press in tne world. It has been free for so long that most people in this country take their newspapers tor grameu. It would come as a dramatic shock to them If some day they awoke to find their newspaper could print only items that had been approved by a government censor PLANT DISEASES EUGENE WI Hairy vetch fields in the Junction City area show two bacterial plant diseases, ac cording to John Hardlson.

In- half a century a man can fall victim to fallen arches, dys pepsia, cynicism or delusions of grandeur. Over that period he be gins to feel himself coming apart at the seams. So do many governments, be cause governments like men are susceptible to interior ailments. In such countries newspapers that try lo remain tree are ruth lessly suppressed.

Olten the best reporters are those who refuse to go to the big cities. They would rather make their ca reers on newspapers in the com munity of their choice. One of the greatest, William Allen White, won world fame In Emporia, Kas. It proved a better springboard for him than New York, Washing ton, or Chicago did for scores of his contemporaries.

They are told exactly what the dictator wants them to know and nothing more. What is it like to live in such a country? It is always to live in doubt about what is happening, what really Is going on, not only In your own country but in the rest of the world. Truth and propaganda become Intertwined. Rumor and cossln ride the land. The final result la that no sensi ble man can afford to believe any thing he reads or hears. All he can ultimately be sure of is how tne dictator spens his name. located In small or medium-sized communities. A man likes to feel that what he has invested his life In was worth whileand will go on. Although the average reporter doesn't spend much lime talking about it, that ls one of the privi leges of newspaper work It has continuity of life. You may wear out, but the newspaper will go on, serving its community. All surveys show that American newspapers are of higher quality, are read more widely, than ever before. , They probably will continue lo be, so long as they remain free to be the voice of the people.

Should I complete the canasta? What should I discard In any case?" Let's begin with the first burning question It was a good Idea to meld the eights. It would hve been even better to meld the fours also. You can't expect to win the pack with this type of hand, so the best you can do is to try to meld out quickly. You have a better chance of striking your partner with two melds of "fresh" card than with just one such meld. When your second chance comes. you should certainly meld the fours. Your partner ls unlikely to have three of them, but he may have pair of foure. and may de velop a seventh four or a wild card at his next turn. Do pot complete the cansasta yourself.
