Lightning SI onus
By FLORENCE JENKINS
Old-time foresters of this area
fay that this month's lightning
storms are the worst they can re
member since the bad year of
1337.
We've been lucky, so far as our
timber stands are concerned, to
have rain accompany most of the
pyrotechnics put on by nature.
Actually, on a national average
only about five per cent of the
forest fires arc caused by light
ning and the remaining 115 per cent
are the result of the carelessness
of people.
In Oregon, only 411 per cent of
fires in the woods are man-caused
That figure permits no encour
agement or jubilation, however, as
man-caused fires are responsible
for more than 95 per cent of the
forest loss through fire in Ore
gon. It's sort of a case of 'you
can't win for losing.'
The Forest Service and Klam
ath Forest Protective Association
have a network of lookouts manned
on a 24-hour-a-day basis during
the fire season which can quick
ly locate lightning-caused fires.
Their superlative efficiency is ev
idenced by the small percentage
of damage done to Oregon for
ests by lightning fires during the
last few years.
A carelessly tossed cigarct or
match, however, can burn quite
an area before the volume of
smoke makes the fire visible to
a lookout. Valuable timber can be
quickly destroyed by a small
warming fire that is let get out
of control or left before it is en
tircly extinguished.
It is time again for the annual
plea to motorists, campers, pic
nickers and lishcrmen to make
It' a ipatler of individual respon
sibility to protect our forest as
sets from fire.
Wonder if wet matches would be
the answer.

STAMFORD, Conn. (API-Thc
Iron Curtain seems more easily
pierced hy air than on the ground
At least radio amotcuri of the
United Stales and Soviet Russia
find it simpler to communicate
wilh each other on a person-to
person level than do political
leaders of the great rival powers.
Ham radio station operators in
the two countries strike up cither
wave friendships freely, apparent
ly with no governmental objection
from either side.
Perhaps a typical example of
these new adventures in interna
tional understanding Is the rela
tionship between Frank Enge and
Leo Shiskin..
Enge is supervisor of research
and development for the Ameri
can Machine & Fnundary Co.'s
electronics laboratory here. Shis
kin is an electrical engineer in
Moscow.
Their friendship started Aug. 11,
1958, when they first made con
tact via ham radio.
After that they quickly became
pen pals. Leo asked Frank lor
copies of American radio journals,
and sent him copies of Russian
radio journals also some Russian
classical phonograph records lor
Frank's wife.
Frank congratulated Leo on the
Russian scientific achievement
when the first sputnik went aloft,
and Leo replied in kind when the
U.S. sent up Explorer I, adding:
"Let our slates to be tggether
on Ihe earth as our man-made
moons are in the 'sky."
That was Ihe nearest Ihe Rus
sian ever came to a political re
mark. Enge said.
Shortly after their initial and
only radio contact, Leo Shiskin
lost his amateur license "lor in
fraclions ol the rules." but he
wrote Frank:
'My absence in Ihe air has no
relations lo our mailing.."
However, he never did explain
the nature ol Ihe violations lhat
did cost him his license.
Leo wrote lh.il he made about
Il'ihi rubles a munlh Mhe -.ulile is
otlic-ially pegged at 2S mils'.
"He also said that he only hail
to pay So rubles a month rent."
Enge recalled, "bill he had In
share a communal apartmrnt
with lour other families. The
apartment had only one bath
room, one kitchen and one tele
phone "Leo also wrote thai he had In
pay a fourth of his salary :iihi
rubles a month in income taxes,
and that a suit cost hurt from 4ik
lo 1.700 rubles. He said an old car
would cost him H.tm rubles, a new
one fin noo rubles."
Frank urote back thai his own
income was about Sl.niM a month,
lhat he had a 5-room, J-b.itli
apatlment and owned luo cars.
"This comparison may have
made Leo unhappy, hut so far he
hasn't said so." remarkrd Ence
willing.
Enge eslimaled that perhaps
12,000 of some Imi.ooii American
radio hams have made contact
with Russian amateurs. He esti
mated the number of Russian
hams at 2,000. He himself has
contacted radio amateurs in 15 ol
the Soviet republics.
Askea how he feels about Leo
Shiskin, Enge said:
"I have a lot of sympathy .
I admire the wartime sacrifices
of the Russian people, and feel
they are trying very hard to make
a better life for themselves. I
don't feel that way about their
government.
"I think if Ihe Russian people
knew the American people, and
wc knew more about them, there
would be no need for an Iron
Curtain."

WASHINGTON (AP)-The So
viet Communists, like Ihe Oevil,
have been credited with diaboli
cal cunning in planning every
move. They look now like men
who have been in a confused
search for a foreign policy for five
years.
Joseph Slalin was neither mod
ern nor subtle. Ho could think on
ly in terms of violence. This pro
vided him with a 'simple philoso
phy at home and abroad. He used
terror to keep the Soviet people
and the satellites in line.
As for Communist expansion, he
thought in Hie crudest terms: push
where you think you can get away
with it. For instance, Ihe war in
Korea, the pressure on Iran, Tur
key, Greece, and the Berlin blockade.
But what he achieved was what
he wanted least: a solid Western
alliance against the Soviet Union
and a view by neutrals lhat the
Soviet Union was a symbol of the
bogeyman. He had outlived his
lime.
He died in 11153 at the dawn of
a new age: the atomic and hydro
gen bombs and intercontinental
missiles. His heirs had to accom
modate themselves to both the
new age and new Indies to offset
the damage he had done.
To win over the neutrals, Nikitn
Khrushchev sought lo give the ap
pearance of a benevolent Soviet
Union freed at last from Ihe ter
ror f of purges and violent ad
vances.
As an example of Ihe new d;iv
wilh Ihe exception of Secret po
lice chief Lavrenti Beria who was
execuled Khrushchev's rivals.
like Mololov and Malenkov, were
simply purged from, Iheir jobs.
Unshot, they were banished to
Ihe provinces.
And the Soviet Union began eco
nomic help to the backward coun
tries. At the same time Khru
shchev had to find a way to soften
the West and split its alliances by
giving the appearance ol a new,
peaceful, friendly Soviet Union.
Hence his denunciation in 195(1 of
Slalin as a murderer and his sug
gestionundreamed of in Stalin's
lime and anathema then and now
old-line Stalinists that there
ire dilterent roads lo socialism
meaning communism.
This was intended lo woo back
Yugoslavia, give the appearance
of relaxation of Soviet control
over the satellites, encourage
Western nations lo show less hos
tility lo their own. native, home
grown Communist parties.
Meanwhile, Khrushchev in per
son bounced around Europe and
Asia, talking good will. Bill all
this, as it turned out, was not so
much a well though! out policy as
experiment, and one which
turned out ruinously.
The Poles and Hungarians, tak
ing advantage of what they
thought was relaxation, revoked.
The latter had lo he crushed by
the Soviet army. Yugoslavia re
fused to be wooed back into the
Soviet fold.
In short, the policy failed, and
doubly so: the Western alliance
did not disintegrate under Khru
shchev's blandishments and unrest
in the satellites continued, even
though Khrushchev did make
some progress with the neutrals
Apparently the Soviet Commu
nists became frighlcned by the
Khrushchev experiment. The
purge was restored with the exe
cution of Hungarian Premier Imrc
Nagy and some of his lieutenants.
This wanton act of murder
shocked the world, including the
neutrals. No doubt if was intended
as a warning to any would-be reb
els in the satellites. In one foul
execution, the Soviet communists
ui.did much of their work since
1053.
It proved what only the absent-
minded could, have forgotten, that
the Communists are political can
nibals who will feed on them
selves and all others who get in
their way.
Khrushchev and his friends
who by their taclics have just about
wrecked any chance of a summit
meeting appear at the moment to
be in search of a new foreign pol
icy.

chusetts firm outwit -the recession.
Faced wilh the tendency of
ojder women to make their pres

the siump, a Chicago firm has
started its sales curve upward
again by nudging the younger set
into Ihem earlier.
One auto maker is jacking up
Ihe selling record of dealers and
salesmen by as much as 50 per
cent wilh a new training center.
And another car builder is fight
ing the foreign influx by joining
them with its own European made
vehicles, boosting sales by 136 per
cent.
The list of companies who are
learning lo live wilh the recession
and like it grows longer each day.
Some sell luxuries, some neces
sities. Some are big and some are
small. Here are just a few ex
amples:
The 28 store Davega chain says
sales gains of up to 72 per cent
over 1057 are being recorded by
outlets selling appliances, sporting
goods and clothing at or slightly
above cost with no down payment.
and the first payment three
months after purchase.
Chrysler has been training
salesmen at a new center at Rye.
N.Y., for a month on sales and
service techniques and reports
some of them have increased
Iheir records by 58 per cent.
rord reports its English Ford
line, thanks to a new distribution
pattern, has chalked up a 136 per
cent retail sales gain in the lirsl
five months of the vear.
Lawn-Boy of Lamar, Mo., says
Texas motel owner uses its
power mower part of the time to
cut three acres of grass and the
rest of the time to pull a cart
heaped high wilh patrons' luggage
to pare bellhop costs.
The Tile Council of America
says it's investing $700.noo this
year in advertising and promotion
and has opened a $500,000 re
search center. It says that during
the recession 25 manuafcturers
have come up with 50 new di
signs for tiles, helping them lo
lick Ihe recession.
The Picture and Frame Insti
tute says consumer buying is
hooming because many house
wives are redecorating lhat way
instead of buying new furniture
or repainting.
The American Rack Merchan
disers Institute predicts a M per
cent gain in sales of nonfeod
ptems in the nation's supermar
kets this year.
But the kitchens of Sara Lee
Chicago, say gross sales of luxury
baked products are up 27 per
cent this year. And Pfaelzer
Brothers of Union Stockyards.
Chicago, claim good sales for a
package of U. S. prime cuts of
five different types of steak and
a sirloin roast for $95.
Perma-Lift, Chicago, complains
that women are cutting their in
ventories of foundation garments,
but says its drive to get teen-agers
into bras and girdles earlier is
paying off in fatter sales.

Senator Wins Fourth Term
Sans Aid Of Party Backing
FARGO, N.D. (API-North Da
kota's colorful veteran Sen. Wil
liam Langer won Republican
nomination for a fourth term
without party backing in a race
with Lt. Gov. Clyde Duffy, the
GOP choice, in yesterday's pri
mary election.
Duffy conceded in a telegram
in which he wished Langer the
best of luck in the fall election.
With 471 precincts of 2,331 re
ported, Langer had 15,089, Duffy
10.278.
Langer's bid for re-endorsement
was spurned by the GOP State
Convention this spring in favor of
Duffy, Devils Lake attorney.
Kntering the race as an inde
pendent and relying on a follow
ing built up through more than 40
years in state politics, Langer
made only a handful of cam
paign appearances. Although
showing eflects of a recent ill
ness, the 71-year-old senator
claimed his health was not a
campaign issue. He read a state
ment from a Maryland hospital
saying he had recovered com
pletely. On the Democratic side, returns
from 214 precincts gave Raymond
G. Vendsel, slate senator and
farmer from Carpio, a lead of
2,481 to 1.359 in the Senate nomi
nation race over Anson J. Ander
