COi? A u or oasaoN lis.usy fJZZliZ, ORE. n) Aow o)AWk V In The- Day's lews By FRANK JEM INS One of the AP'h t.y political writers, Morrie Li nr.sberg, has just completed a survey of the political situation in California. As a result of his findings, he con cludes that the outcome of the Presidential campaign in California will be decided by what he calls a "great block" of uncommitted and independent voters. He adds that at this time four years ago it was pretty apparent that D w i g h t Eisenhower would sweep the state and he did. But, he says, it is just as clear NOW that a considerable shrinkage has occurred in the ranks of the Democrats who will support Ike again. He sums it up in the words of a Los Angeles Democrat who said to him: "I voted for a change in 1352, but 1 don t like what I got, Why doesn't he like what he got? Well, the. Eisenhower adminis- tration, in general, has to practice common sense, moderation, mid dle-of-the-road policies because these are the policies of the El senhower administration. If people don't like these poli cies, this must be the reason: They don't want common sense. The want MIRACLES. Let's be frank about it. There isn't universal satisfaction with present conditions. Farmers harried by lower prices for what they have to sell and higher prices for what they have to buy, want the miracle of higher prices in the face of over supply in the form of ever-mounting subsidized surpluses. Business people, harried by ris ing costs of labor and raw ma terials, want the miracle of bet ter profits in a time of steadily narrowing margins between costs and selling prices. Working people, harried by the rising prices that HAVE to lollow steadily rising wages (wages av erage about 67 per cent of all costs) want the miracle of more goods and services for their paycheck. So- Not getting these desired things, which are impossible of attain ment because there is no such thing as something for nothing Peoph) are unhappy that is, the people who want miracles are unhappy. What is wrong? I don't know positively, but I think we have fallen into the de lusion that we can have every thing we want by the simple pro cess of passing a law. Unfor tunately, it isn't as simple as that. REAL, prosperity, I think, comes only in those occasional golden periods of BALANCED production when everybody is able to ex change what he produces for the things that other people produce on a fair and equal basis (if you make hats you can exchange your hats for the shoes your neighbor makes on such a fair basis that the more hats you make the more shoes you can have.) Getting back to the promises of his piece, the Democrats if Jthey win in November will be no more able in the years between 3956 and 1960 to satisfy these ' yearnings for miracles than the I Republicans have been in the i years from 1952 to 1936, which by : all the modern rules have been among the most prosperous years in our history. So- If that is true Come I960 the Democrats will be thrown out again and the Re publicans will be put in again. Where will it all end? It can end happily ONLY when people cease to expect political miracles and settle down to a rea sonable basis of common sense and sound economics. Gibson Faces New Charge COOS BAY Coos Coun ty authorities added a new charge Friday to the record of Ernest Le roy Gibson, 29, whose capture end ed one of the most extensive man hunts in this area in years.

Police Unfold Dual Marriage CHICAGO m The mother of a 1-month-old baby, kidnaped but re turned safely, said Saturday she would "stick by" the baby's fath er, despite the disclosure he Is mar ried to another woman. The other woman, however,- said she had "no pity" for her husband, the father of her five children. The unusual incident had its be ginning Thursday night.. Then, the baby, Ronald Bucher, was taken from his home. Police arrested Mrs. Gladys Bynum, 24, as the woman who had taken the child. She told officers she had de ceived her husband into thinking she was pregnant by padding her figure and buying maternity wear. She completed the deception by taking the child. A grand jury reportedly voted a true bill charging Mrs. Bynum with kidnaping. Soon after the reported indict ment, Mrs. Joan Paterimos. 27, came to the state's attorney's of fice and reported the baby's father who had tried vainly to avoid news photographers, was her hus band, she said she recognized his picture in a newspaper. He had left her and their chil dren 22 months ago, she said. Faced with her accusations Pater imos admitted he was never legal ly married to the kidnaped baby's mother. Miss Lois Bucher, 21. Paterimos was charged with adul tery, child abandonment and non support. Miss Bucher said: "I love. him and I'll stick by him. He's been good to me. Mrs. Paterimos had different sentiments. "He's no good," she declared. He hasn t supported us. I have no pity for him. Send him to Jail." EXCLUSIVE HEADS GLENDALE, Calif.

Dr. Albert B. Sabm, professor of research pediatrics In the College of Medicine, made the report to a select group of scientists meeting in Cincinnati. The' Cincinnati Times-Star carried it Saturday in an exclusive, copyrighted story, Dr. Sabin said a single dose of the new vaccine will produce im munity against all three major strains of polio virus. He said the vaccine has proven safe after ex tensive tests on animals and hu mans and is now ready for mass testing on an international basis. Worldwide tests of the new vac cine will begin next year in four foreign countries as well as in the United States. Dr. Sabin said the vaccine is the first effective oral preventive against polio. He said it works in persons who have already re ceived Salk vaccine. Dr. Sabin's report indicated ar rangements have already been made with a leading pharmaceuti cal house to produce the vaccine a pilot plant. Production, the report said, will be cheap the vaccine itself costing less than the cherry syrup vehicle by which it is administered.

Pries 1 mate 41 pages Anti-Fire Veek Set In Nation In observance of President Ei senhower's proclamation of Na tional Fire Prevention Week, Octo ber 7-13, Colonel Samuel C. Gra shio, Commander of the 408th Fighter Group at the Klamath Falls Air Base, has appointed Fire Marshal Major 0. D. Whitten. Fire Chief E. R. Deatherage and Fire Prevention Inspector Assis tant Chief J. C. Webb to organize ana promote a Fire Prevention Week program. Colonel Grashio advocates edu cating base personnel, both mil itary and civilian, in good house keening practices as a primary factor in maintaining a safe and fire free installation. The goal of fire prevention and protection programs, Deatherage said, is the total prevention of any loss of life or property by fire. Although this goal is as yet un attainable, measures to prevent the outbreak and serious spread of fire, and to promptly detect and extinguish-fires, are being stead ily developed or improved, he added. . -i i To augment this goal the Air Force encourages reciprocal aid agreements for fire protection be tween Air Defense Command in stallations, such as the one here in Klamath Falls, and nearby com munities. Such an agreement has been ar ranged between the Air Force Fire Department and the numerous lo cal fire fighting organizations. This organization is known as the Mu tual Firefighting Assistance Forces and the chief officers of the de partments which are parties to the group meet every mree months to coordinate their efforts to reduce fire Josses. When, in the opinion of the chief officer of any member agen cy,. assit.iocn is required In the! immediate area of his responsibili- tv De&theraee ONDlained. he 1 transmits his reui ai to. a cen- tral fire alarm station and sped' fies how many men and what type of eauinment he needs. The central fire alarm operator will then call upon the nearest fire department to respond with the type of assistance requested. 11 such a move endangers the com munity from which the help comes, eauinment from other areas is moved up to protect that zone. Chief Deatherage reminded ev eryone in the community to con sider the slogan for this year s National Fire Prevention Week: "Don't Give Fire A Place To Start."

He praised local physicians who have shown a 22.7 per cent per capita increase on the 45 per cent who have reported their gifts. The physicians have assumed the responsibility of conducting Klamath Medical Society. Tom McCarry,' associate chair man with Jack Otterbein of the campaign, closed the meeting with a quote from Harvey Fire stone: "We have no legal obligation to provide for the unfortunate, but we do have a moral obligation." The Klamath County United Fund-Red Cross drive has I goal of $141,676 this year to meet the operating needs of 27 youth, health and welfare agencies.

Sen. Humphrey (D-Minn), chairman of the group of six Re publicans and six Democrats, re leased a special staff study on disarmament and at the same time supported the proposal of Adlai Stevenson that this country take the lead in moves ' toward halting tests of large nuclear weapons such as H-bombs. Sen. Bridges (R-NH), protested that he and other members of the disarmament group had not seen the staff study or been consulted about its release. He said Hum phrey's action "instead of foster ing bipartisanship in foreign pol icy, in effect undermines it." Bridges expressed doubt as to "the propriety of releasing staff studies bearing upon serious in ternational problems without a meeting and careful consideration of them by the subcommittee." MUCH TROUBLE "Such a practice can be ore- ductive of much trouble," he said especially if it becomes Involved in the heat' of a oolitical cam paign." At the same time Bridget backed President Eisenhower, Vice President Nixon and other Republicans who have taken is sue with Stevenson s suggestions for halting H-bomb tests. "Our preparations and teste In nuclear defense should go on to . insure maximum progress in tech nology and a strong national se curity," Bridges said. Humphrey contended it would -not be necessary to rely on the Soviet's world alone" that an agreement on banning H-bomb tests waa being observed. "Nor would such an agreement, to be effective, require an elabor ate inspection system, he saw, adding: "Our detecting methods are presently located outside the So viet union. Many ouer nauona have means to detect large nu clear explosions , wherever tney occur. -"ny violation of an agreement eS"Hr- therefore, be-' almost in stantly known to the world at large." - - DIFFICULTIES The staff study released by Humphrey cited numerous diffi- cullies facing disarmament pro- P' m oom pumitoi .m frhnirjil vieWDoints. It urged that some system for international control of intercon tinental or long-range missiles, capable of carrying nuclear war heads, be worked out promptly. "Some country Is quite sure. within the relatively near future, to complete a successful test of the ICBM," the report said. 1 In the event the disarmament agreement were disolved or brok en, the country having completed the test and having carefully pre served its research and develop ment data would go into produc tion of the weapons far ahead of any other countries." - The report also noted that it would be almost impossible to de tect hidden stockpiles of nuclear and other mass destruction weap ons under any disarmament agreements, , It YEARS OF INDECISION ROANOKE, Va.
