(( tj) W II li Mafes? Y P Thmka-ioahatlo Lucile OWeill By FLORENCE JENKINS A strong and fearless voice has been heard in Oregon for seven long years in support of the best in education for the youth of the state while Lucile O'Neill has been a member of the State Board of Education. She came to that post with the highest qualifications in experience in addition to the abundance of na tive intelligence and good judgment with which she is blessed. She and her husband, Vic O'Neill, came to Klamath Falls in 1926. For 10 years she headed the Enclish department at Klamath Union High School. And she served for 20 years on the local library board A whole generation of people business and professional men, truck drivers, housewives and ca reer girls learned an apprecia tion for the correctly written and spoken word from ' Mrs. O'Neill. She was able to stimulate an en during interest in reading in addi tion to exposing her students to the mechanics of sentence pars ing and a definition of gerunds. Her retirement from active class room work saw her efforts trans ferred to the administrative level while she served for five years on the Klamath Falls elementary school board. She was appointed by Oregon's Governor McKay for two terms on the interim commit tee on education and received the significant honor of 'being named as a member of the White House Conference on Education in Wash ington, D.C. a couple of years ago. In appointing her successor this week, Governor Holmes remarked that she is the lirst member of the Slate Board of Education to servo her full seven-year term. Mrs. O'Neill is a lifelong, active Republican. The two-party political system in this country has been made the excuse for removal from office of more than one vigorous, experi enced and valuable public servant. Her sphere of influence expands as the ripples caused by a pebble dropped into a quiet pool reach the far perimeter of the water. The effect of her sound thinking and logic will continue to be felt at Salem just as it is here in Klam alh Falls. And there's one sure Ihing: An other job will find Lucile O'Neill and absorb her energy and talents probably before she has finished her summer's output of strawber ry jam. life, plans no big splurge with her money. "I already have an apartment, a mink jacket and a sports car," she said, nonchalantly. "I think I'll buy stocks and bonds." She said working girls today have two major problems "lone liness, and the fact their values change so much they find it diffi cult to find happiness. "What they really want isn't a career but someone to love who loves them. "But they get more' and more sophisticated, demanding, cynical, and harder to please. They ma ture. They're looking for some thing more than the boy next door. "The more you demand the harder it is to lind happiness. And every time you mtet a guy who breaks your heart you get a little tougher. "But the bachelor is just as much a problem as the glamor ous, older married man to the working girl. "The thing I hate most in the world is liars men liars, because they are more dangerous. No lie by another woman could really hurt another woman much.. But there are lots of lies a man could tell that might hurt her if she believed them. "I have a very high opinion of men, and want to live up to it That's why I'm so hard on them.' Miss Jaffe feels she can't be completely happy herself unless she has two careers writing and marriage. "I want a man who I can re spect and who will respect me and my interests. He will have to he enough of a man in his own right not to feci he has to run me down." A look of early sorrow crossed Hona's child-wise face. "What defeats a woman if any thing does is not to be loved," she said. "You can make a lot of things happen to you in this life f you work hard. "But one thing you can't do. You can't make another person love you." Lilcr.iry Discovery By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK (AP) "Show me a man who won't run away when a girl says, I love you re marked Rona Jalfe, "and I'll show you a man who's married to somohody else." Miss Jaffe, who is pretty, dark haired and only 2t: years old, is being groomed as the literary dis covery of the 1958 fall season. "My ambition is to he a famous novelist to be No. 1 on the fiction list," she said. She may make it this year with her lirst novel, "The Best Of Everything." to be published next month. Some 30.ti(H) advance copies already have been sold out, and producer Jerry Wald has snapped up the movie rights lor $100,1X10. Here's her unusual story: Rona, a bright nnd determined daughter of well -to -do parents, graduated from Itadclitie at 19. She got a job in a publishing linn, wrote and sold eight short stories in the next few years. Last summer, during a visit to Hollywood, she heard producer Wald say ho was looking for "a modern Kitty Foyle." ("Kilty Foylc." by Christopher Morley, was one of the most successlul novels ever written about the poor working girl.i "1 decided then and there Id write it," recalled Rona. So she came back to Manhattan, quit her job and settled down to write the realistic story not of one, hut of live working girls. "I had been living with my parents," she said. "Hut 1 moed into another apartment to be hy myself. I wanted to he frank, nnd knew 1 couldn't write it under the roof of the sweet, well-meaning people who were going to get the shock of their lives when they found out what their little Frank enstein had written. "I set myself a goal of no pages every day. I wrote Ihe book in exactly five months and live days plus" she smiled archly "plus the sullcring of 26 years." Magazine editors lead the mncl in galley proof, gulped, and de cided against serializing it. Their verdict: too spicy. But piodticor Wald read only imi pages. plunked dnn his Sioo.ikhi gladly The paperback edition rights sold for twice the advance received hy "Peyton Place.'' Miss Jaffe. who has been used to the best of everything all her. Ike's Proposal By JAMES MARLOW Associated Press News Analyst WASHINGTON AP -' This country has responded warmly to President Elsenhower s proposals in the United Nations for Mideast peace. But getting action on them by other countries in or out of the U.N. is something else. This suggestion captured most attention: that an effort be made to see whether the Arab countries would agree lo setting up a de velopment organization to help their industry, farming, water supply, health and education. Eisenhower did not say this should be part of a U.N. program, lie suggested the money could be put up by the United States, other countries which wanted to take part, and private capital. The de velopment organization would be run by the Arabs. It's easy lo see trouble ahead on tins one. President Nasser of the United Arab Republic, who seems bent on bringing all his Arab neighbors under this thumb, can do it easier if they're wracked with discontent than if they see a bright future ahead. lie can stall on this one in the belief that lime is on his side and given time he can capture his neighbors. Then lie might talk about a development organization, with him as boss. It's doubtful the Soviet Union would want in on this. Soviet in liltration in the Middle East is easier if the individual countries try to improve their lot with So viet help in manpower, materials and loans. Further. Eisenhower limited his proposal to the Arab countries. This left Israel out. an omission which must have been deliberate. Eisenhower knows he'd almost certainly not get Arab approval lor a development program in eluding Israel. Yet, somehow in any Mideast development plan Israel would hae to be considered. For exam ple: in any development of the Jordan River. Perhaps Eisenhow er has something in mind for Is rael by itself, if the Arabs buy his development idea. Eisenhower also proposed steps against indirect aggression spe cifically broadcasts beamed from one country into a neighbor's re cciving sets to inflame the people against their government. The President didn't mention Nasser on this one. No doubt he had Nasser in mind. This idea al most certainly will run into oppo sition not only from Egypt but trom the Soviet Union, too. In any discussion of a curb on broadcasts into another country whether or not their purpose is subversion the Soviets would probably insist that American broadcasts behind the ' Iron Cur tain be stopped or monitored. - Another Eisenhower suggestion that the U.N. take "action looking toward the creation of a standby U.N. police" to keep peace in the .Middle East. Nasser, highly sue cessful so far with his pressure tactics, will hardly buy this one. And even Jordan's King Hussein so close to being thrown out is cool to any idea of a U.N. police force on any Arab borders with Israel. This Eisenhower proposal seems destined to get the coldest shoulder from both Nasser and the Soviet Union: that Ihe "nations in volved in the 1948 hostilities (the Arab-Israel wari might approve creation of a U.N. study to see what could be done about control in'g the shipment of heavy arma ments into the area." He didn't say anything about extending arms shipment control to the Baghdad Pact countries Turkey, Iran, Pakistan which this country in effect joined as a full partner a couple of weeks ago for defense against the Soviet Union. Nasser has been bitter against this military alliance right on the Arab doorstep in the Mideast. And the Soviet Union has been bitter about it because it stretches along her southern frontier. Both the Soviet Union and Nas ser almost certainly would fight any such Eisenhower proposal as this arms control plan unless it included at least fran and Pakis tan. Turkey could get arms any way from this country because it s also a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. All in all Eisenhower's pro posals do ndt face clear sailing. Strider Utiles By SAM DAWSON AP Business News Analyst NEW YORK (AP)-Stnck brokers say they doubt if stricter rules on margin trading will slim it down much so long as stock market volume is large and prices seem likely to rise. That's because the average margin trader is a bull at heart and also an in-and-out operator rather than the investor type. How do traders set up a margin account? How do brokers handle it? Where do most margin traders live? A margin account under Federal Reserve Board rules is one in which the trade puts up 70 per cent of the purchase price of stovks and borrows the other 30 per cent from his broker. This way he makes $70 do the work of $100 in the amount of stocks he can buy. ff he guesses right his profit is that much more than if he had paid cash for fewer stocks. Brokerage firms have their own rules, over and above those set hy the Federal Reserve, the Se curities and Exchange Commis sion and the various stock ex changes. Rules vary among tirms but there is a general pattern. Pogo Tv INYK9IIUATE VHZ-AMPl nMkl A I Hi7 Ai,1 . J2& Al .i ovi ffcnr'ACMN, UCW P-T IT AiNT ENOUOH awav w'th an fvsresp.v' so Acas ve sir VBVWmAT W&E HUMBLY eve&j, V j -am The first rule in accepting a new margin account accordin; to Charles D. Halsey, partner of Bache Jt'Co., with branches in 71 cities is this: they look up your credit closely. They do this if you open a cash account, but with a margin ac count they make doubly sure you can support an account and put up more margin if called upon And they review the accounts constantly. Most brokers, Halsey says won't handle the lower priced stocks on margin. A little price fluctuation means a big percent age drop. How do brokers handle charges? Some customers pay the interest on their loan and the commissions on purchases and sales out of pocket sometimes for tax rea sons. Others have such costs charged to their trading account, thereby eroding its total volume and limiting any stock switching by that amount. Most margin traders live in New York or other market centers where they can watch their stocks closely, get the latest information fast and move quickly to take profits or cut losses. Cash traders can ride out price fluctuations more easily and wait for the ex pected long-term gain.1 About 80 per cent of margin ac counts are quite active and used by the in-and-out trader. Only 20 per cent are used by persons who buy or sell infrequently. Although most margin traders are bulls at heart, they can also sell short on margin. Some mar gin accounts include both stocks the trader is buying in expecta tion of a price rise, and stocks he borrowed from the broker to sell in expectation the price will fall so that he can buy at a lower fig ure and repay the borrowed stock at a profit. If he's a short seller 70 per cent of what the broker paid to get the borrowed stock is charged against his account and the bro ker carries the other 30 per cent at the usual interest, averaging around 4 per cent. The trader's account, of course, must be large enough to cover the 70 per cent of market price the Federal Re serve now requires. Margin traders are most active and numerous on rising or active markets and tend to take to the sidelines on falling or sluggish markets. iicslioiis and AllSWCI'S By EDWIN P. JORDAN, M. D. Written for NEA Service One of the things which makes doctors extremely angry is brought out by today's first question. Q My wife may have to have a serious abdominal operation per formed. Since she learned about this all of her friends have been telling her about people they know who have gone into the hospital for such an operation and have had a simply horrible time. Now my wife is scared lo death. Do you approve of this? J. L. A Such loose talk happens all too often. I simply cannot under stand how apparently well-meaning people can talk in such a thoughtless manner. In the first place they cannot possibly know what will be found or what will be done to a person going into the hospital for surgery. In the second place, even if they did, they would he hurting rath er than helping any "friend" who is faced with a difficult problem. I suppose busybodies will always he with us, but J. L. (and others like him I should encourage his wife to lough at these stories. Q Please say something about people not being able to sec at night. Mrs. II. L. A This question probahlv refers to the fairly common situation in which a person does not see as well as others in a dim light. This is sometimes called night blindness. In some cases this mav be re lated lo a' vitamin deficiency which may or may not be helped hy taking Ihe appropriate vitamin Of course, a person who has night blindness should be particularly carclul about such things as driv ing a car. except in bright day light. Q I have had diabetes for soii'c time and during the past three years have had totiblc with my. tongue being raw and sore Also. I hav e a skin infection which doesn't heal. Could one or both he the cause of diabetes 'Mrs. M. A Neither could bo the cause of diabetes, hut both could be a symptom or result of that disease Dryness o( the mucus membranes is fairly frequent in diabetes and is perhaps related ta the difliculty with the tongue Also, one of the well-known complications' of dia betes is chronic infection of var ious sorts involving Ihe skin. You should receive immediate and careful care of the diabetes and its complications. Board Denies Group's Bid ARLINGTON, Va. (AP) - The offer of a segregationist group to field 600 rifle and pistol club mem bers to prevent possible disorders when schools open next month has been rejected by the chair man of Arlington County's Board of Supervisors. Chairman Ralph Kaul said he was confident county authorities "will be able to maintain law and order without any help from pri vate interests." He said the board is making ar rangements with neighboring Al exandria and hairfax County for Experts Doubt Pill's Value BURLINGTON, Vt. (API - An American scientist warned today that no antiradiation pill ever will be a match for the H-bomb. At the same time a French sci entist expressed doubt that pills thus far developed are as protec tive against atomic rays as their makers believe. Earlier this week Dr. David G. Doherty of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory reported to the Inter national Congress on Radiation Research on a cheap pill which he said could reduce injury from a given amount of radiation by 50 per cent. Today Dr. Walter Gordy of Duke University cautioned against giv ing people the "false hope" that they can be immunized against radiations such as would be loosed upon them 'in all-out hydrogen warfare. In any event. Gordy said; "they can always make the H-bomb big ger faster than they can make the pill bigger." He said the only good protection against nuclear war is peace. Dr. Raymond Latarjet of J?aris also cautioned against expecting too much from such pills. Doherty had said his Oak Ridge pill would double the dose of radiation a per son could take without increasing the damaging effects. assistance should extra police be needed. "We don't expect any real trou ble," Kaul said, "but with the lessons of Little Rock and other areas in rnind it doesn't hurt to be adequately prepared." In other Virginia school segre gation developments: l. An attorney for white Nor folk parents was expected to ask a justice of the State Supreme Court today for an injunction to prevent the Norfolk school board from assigning any pupils white or ivegro to public schools. 2. Alexandria school officials confirmed that 14 Negro pupils nave applied lor admission next month to four white schools. Jack Rathbonc, executive sec retary of the seereeationist De fenders of State Sovereignty and individual Liberties, offered the services of the rifle and pistol club meiriDers to Arlington County. Arlington Countv has beerf nr. dered by federal courts to admit seven specific Negroes to white scnoois next month. In addition, 24 others have applied for admission to white schools when they open Sept. 4. .
