PAGE S A- HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath falls. Ore. Wednesday, Julv 22, 1359 PRANK JE.NK1NS Editor BILL JENKINS Managing Editor FLOYD WWNE Cuy Editor MAURICE MILLER Circulation Mgr Ph. TU 4-4732 15 i Ari'.'i liy R1I.L JENKINS As we were saying in this spate yesterday we have been off in the dusty grey yonder looking about for ways to escape the heat and the oltice telephone. The first morning out in camp is always one of the highlights ol the trip. This trip was no differ ent. I awoke much later than I planned to find the sun already peeking over the ridge and the mosquitoes waiting lor breakfast. While standing in the meadow slugging away at the morning fruit juice .? nice forked horn came ambling out ol the small trees to the south of the clearing, nosed around nonchalantly and then sighting me. took off in cautious elarm up the green slopes of a juniper studded ridge. The few birds to be found at that altitude tuned up, the creek changed its night song to morning sound and the sun gained heat. We broke camp. Loaded up the pickup and took off, pausing on the way to fill a bucket with snow from a deep drift to chill the re freshments. In fact, we managed to keep ourselves In ice practically all the way by this expedient. A long loop down dusty logging roads, past Tumalo Meadows and eventually Into Bend. Then north to Sisters where we cut back for the high country again on the Three Creeks Lake road. Went in to the lake, Ihen doubled back find again gained the rim and the vastness ol the Broken Top Crater, wnere we camped lor the second night at 7100 feet on the edge of the Three Sisters Wilderness Area. Even up there surrounded by snowbanks and an ice cold stream it was hot sleeping. But nice. Having had our fill of the area and having hiked clear up into Ihe wilderness area for a looksee, we hauled out? and headed west. The McKenzie road was 'crowd ed with tourists, the camps full After a good deal of backing and filling we ended up at a lovely campground at Trout Creek. This camp was obviously new It lies about five miles off the highway on Ihe east side of Ihe pass. Towering pines surround the clearing, there isn't any brush and the wind has a happy sound as it breathes through the cool corridors of the trees. The creek is small and deficient of Irout but cool and good. Altogether a lovely place to spend a night. And the only cool one we had , on Ihe trip. Windup day of Ihe trip saw a blistering hot junket to Eugene where Dick caught a plane for his Portland home and I headed back over the Willamette. A long way to go but a lot of fun. We certainly weren't alone, ei ther. Except that we felt like orphan children since we were about the only ones that weren't towing cither a house trailer or a boat. I couldn't help remarking on I his trip that Ihe outdoor recreation boom has really hit. There are more cars in the woods area, more camps, more boats, more trailers and more big families. America is on Ihe march when it comes lo outdoor fun. And yet all the camps we In spected were clean and well kept. There is a possibility that the mo toring public is coming to lis senses where cleanliness is con owned. Very little litter at any given spot. I don't douhl that a lot of peo ple not only enjoyed their outdoor vacations this year but went home with n lot of new thoughts about the future of our outdoor play grounds. , It is amazing what the popu lation explosion has done lo the outdoors. If you don't believe it just get out and look around. I recommend it. By FLOYD L. WYNNE Don't admit you know whal bundling beds are because you'll be dating yourself. Do as I did. profess your ignor ance and adopt an interested air. It may come as no surprise in this day of old aulos, oil lamps, player pianos and what have you, but the bundling bed Is making noises that sound suspi ciously like a revival. What is a bundling bed? Well, as I understand il. it Is bed with a hinged board down the center. In Ihe old days, when heat was n problem, young couples vho were courting would slip inlo bed fully clothed, aller which thi-v were tucked in by Ihe maidens' molher. There, with a plank lo separate them, they could rPlax in cozy, comforla'.iie propriety fighting off the winter chills while chatting (bout whatever engaged couples Entered as second class matter at the post oflice at Klamath Falls.

Gradually, the sofa replaced Ihe bundling bed and spooning moved into the parlor. A recen( release from the Max Cooper Company indicates that the bundling bed was revived recently at the Chicago Furniture Market, more as a curiosity than anything else. The Dearborn Company of Osh kosh, Wisconsin, unwrapped a pilot model of a bundling bed at the show and (ound itself sudden ly swamped with cash orders for the old-fashioned divided bed The bundling bed interest appar ently stems Irom the controversy that is developing between twin beds and the double bed. I have a personal interest since my wife keeps talking about twin beds tpcrhaps it's my snoring) At any rate, we might instead, give some consideration lo the bundling bed. The vice president of the fur niture company turning them out says more than one divorce court judge has decried the trend to twin beds as a factor in marital discord. In a typical sales pitch, he also says, "With its removable center board, the bundling bed per mits young married couples to overcome initial shyness and re serve." Many furniture dealers ate plan ning to exhibit them, in display windows throughout the country, more for novelty sake than sales appeal. , Many persons, me included, have never seen a bundling bed. They were almost completely native to New England where the winters were harsh and long and most homes log cabins in the 17th and tilth centuries. They served an excellent purpose. However, if you find yourself in Ihe middle of that controversy about twin beds or a double bed, you might find a bundling bed the natural compromise. 1 don't need one. My feet are cold, I loss in my sleep and I snore. Bundling beds wouldn't help me, but they might help my wife. Waisliiiigf on Window By LYLE C. WILSON WASHINGTON (UP1) The somewhat belligerent word from the West Coast is that any and all out-stale Democrats had bet lor d--n well stay out of next year s California Demo cratic presidential primary. The word comes from the little group of able men who are coun selling Democratic Gov. Edmund G. (Pat) Brown on political strat egy. Brown is at least a favorite- son candidate for the l!Ni0 Demo cratic presidential nomination. The word on California's pres idential primary has been con veyed clearly lo Sen. John F. Kennedy (Mass.), to Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey (Minn.) and to Sen Stuart Symington (Mo.). It is believed in California that all three got the word and will abide by il. Humphrey is on firm public rec nrd that he will not invade Biown's preserves. There Is no indication that Symington has considered contesting California Kennedy is not saying. There is even less likelihood of a contest in the Republican pres idential primary. So, it looks like Brown and Vice President Richard M. Nixon will win their home-stale delegations without contest next year. Nixon is, of course, a candidate for Ihe He publican presidential nomination although he has not formally an nounced himseir. Brown's status is less definite He was reluctant to commit him self to a mere favorite-son can didacy alter taking office as gov ernor. In l-ehruary of this year however. Brown so delined his political status. Your correspond ent was in California when Ihe announcement was made. During a brief discussion of it with the governor. your correspondent SHORT RIBS M0H.IE'.

That purpose was In control Ihe California delegation to Ihe ;iiiO Democratic national con vention and to exercise such in fluence there as such con! nil would assure. Brown neither looked, acted nor talked last Feb ruary like a man who was aim ing at Ihe While House. The additional word from Cali fornia today is of some slight change; enough, perhaps, to sug gest that Rrown can conceive of events which might obtain his nomination for President. There will be, (or example, some not too obvious eflorts to obtain delegate support for Brown in other Western states. The governor will not do any campaigning outside his state but he will be available for speeches at national gatherings. If good friends decide to enter the gov ernor's name in the Oregon pros idential primary, well, why not? By JAMES MARLOW Associated Press News Analyst WASHINGTON (API The Eis enhower's administration now hat Secretary of Labor James P Mitchell has become a one-man fact-finder is directly involved in the steel dispute. The administration seems still undecided whether it will get in deeper by making public the facts Mitchell finds. This is the latest development in one of Ihe Strang est series of events in American labor history. Just a few hours before Mitchell stepped into the picture he was reluctant and this is said on ex cellerit authority lo make' any move Ihe steel industry or the steel union could consider govern ment intervention. President Eisenhower, anxious to have the two sides settle the dispute through free collective bargaining, repeatedly has said he wanted lo avoid anything which looked like government interfer ence or pressure. But his repealed warning .to bolh sides lo avoid an inflationary settlement meaning one which resulted in an increase in steel prices was in itself pressure and therefore intervention. The industry rejected the union s wage demands on Ihe ground that this added cost would compel Ihe industry to raise prices, thus setting off an in flationary spiral. So the strike began last Wednesday. At his June 17 news conference when Eisenhower was asked if Ihe government could bring out impartial figures on profits and wages so the people could under stand the issues Eisenhower said this was the most intelligent sug gestion he had heard on the sub ject and he would have it studied. In the end he decided against pull ing the figures together for the public to see. ' At his July 15 news conference he not only dismissed Ihe idea of setting up a fact - finding board but said: "I believe all the fads are pretty well known." He said all the facts were con taincd in various government re' ports and statistics "so Ihe facts are there and the public knows Ihem, if they want lo take the trouble to read Ihem." Bui Ihe trouble was Ihe public didn't know all the facts because they are scattered throughout the government and not brought to gether for comparison. Therefore the public isn't in a position to read them. As it turned out, Eisenhower apparently didn't know all the facts, cither, for otherwise Mit chell would hardly have thought it necessary to announce he would become a one-man factfinder. When he makes his investiga tion he will report lo the Presi dent and alter that, he said, il will be decided whether to make By Frank O'Neal OOOD&NE. JACK ! MARK ! AL! BETTIE! ANN! SAUW! FRED !

Mitchell is known In have ex pressed douhl that the collection of facts, as suggested by a re porter June 17, could be made public without certain segments of the figures being used to prove one side over the other in the steel case. lie also believed that any gov ernment action short of a genuine emergency would badly damage (he process of free, collective bar- aining. ( How is Mitchell going about gathering his facts? "From Ihe ;eat of my pants, he said. He vill have various government agencies give him their facts, and he will go anywhere necessary to lincl others, he said. The administration has been un der growing pressure, particular ly in Congress, to do something. Mitchell's assumption of the one- man fact-finding role is apparent ly a compromise between two oth er steps that could be taken. The President if he considered the strike an emergency could set up a fact-finding board under the Taft-Hartley Act and force postponement of the strike for 80 days. But, since he sees no emer gency now, this kind of board is out. Or Eisenhower could do what President Truman did in the 194'.) steel dispute: not use T-H but set up a fact-finding board anyway. That board made recommenda tions which neither side had to accept but .which both did accept generally in the end. What has seemed obvious from the beginning in this case is an administration uncertainty on how to stay out but still get a settle ment satislactory to Eisenhower. i'ity Maiuigcr Klamath Falls (To the Editorl The first unpleasant show of dic tatorial power vested in the Klam ath Falls city manager was a sort of over the shoulder rift between Ihe city manager and the coun ty sheriff, whom, according to radio and newspaper reports Tues day, July 14, was not prompt in painting out a sidewalk yellow strip bordering the west side of the jail yard and the sheriff's ingenious Centennial exhibit after being instructed by the city man ager to do so. To say that the reported "show temper" by the cily manager July 14 is his first rift could be a mis- lake. It could be listed as his second rift if the published report of objection lo an expenditure of fi,500 for maintenance of a non profit Centennial information of fice at the California state line can be listed as a rift with the cily manager. It seems reasonable to . assume that when a north bound tourist reaches the Oregon state line near Klamath Falls he is well on his way to Portland and the Cen tennial show and not in need of $2,500 wonh of prodding, financed by Klamath Falls taxpayers, to get him to continue on his way If the tourist is in need of in formation or prodding at the state line near Klamath Falls, the job should be paid for by Portland people who share in profits from the show, not Klamath Falls tax payers, the rank and file of whom receive no financial benefit be cause of the Centennial. The sheriff's interesting museum pieces, relics of frontier days, are deserving of display space border ing Main Street to be more con vcnienl for local people and tour ists lo view during Centennial days.

Ho Slash In Taxes Seen During Next 18 WASHINGTON m President Eisenhower sees no real hope for tax cut during his remaining 18 months in oflice, it was re ported today on high authority. But it also is known that the resident at this time is planning to call for a tax increase. Eisenhower's views on this and Uher matters domestic and polit ical can be reported od excellent authority: STEEL Eisenhower does not ule out the possibility of invok- ng the Taft-Hartley law in an eilort to end the steel strike. But he is extremely reluctant, in part because he feels it would do lit- le ultimate good. POLITICS-He intends to say nothing to influence the Republi can presidential nomination unless he sees a prospect that the choice might otherwise go to a candi date he feels does not embrace what Eisenhower calls his middle- of-the-road philosophy. New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller, along with Vice President Richard Nix on, is on the Eisenhower list of 10 possibilities he could support. With respect lo the steel strike, Eisenhower is known to feel an SO-day strike-halting injunction un der the Taft-Hartley Act would serve little purpose because both sides are dug in for a struggle. He sees no need now or cooling off. If the strike, now a week old should eventually threaten defense Cuban Chief Issues Plea HAVANA (UPD Osvaldo Dor ticos Torrado, 45, who soared from obscurity to the presidency of Cuba in a few short hours last weekend, appealed today for American "understanding" of the Cuban revolution. The president said there was no basis for American fears of a Communist takeover here. "Americans must understand the Cuban revolution and our ob jectives," Dorticos said. "This is a Cuban revolution. It is national istic." He said that if the people of the United States understood this they would have no fears about Communism in Cuba. Dorticos expressed his views in an interview with United Press International. He has written many of the laws and decrees of. Castro's rev olutionary regime and has pledged to carry them out. Cas tro charged that Manuel Urrutia, who resigned under pressure Fri day night, blocked some decrees by not signing them. Dorticos, an attorney, said the principal aims of the revolution included revision of the basic Cuban economy through agrarian reform to raise the standard of living of the people and the guar antee of civil rights. Dorticos said his appointment as president of Cuba "came as a surprise to me. At first I did not feel up to it but I have ac cepted my revolutionary respon sibility." . .

The President is making no guess as to how long the strike may last. And he isn't tipping his hand as to how long the gov ernment will rely solely on medi ation". Eisenhower is known to feel that the steel companies acted stupid lywith expletives at the end of the 1956 steel strike. He takes Ihe position that the companies increased steel prices more than $7 a Ion at that time without first calculating the exact cost of the wage hike they negotiated.

As for the United Steelwork- ers Union, Eisenhower (eels us officials are much like politicians dependent on their constituents and thus determined to get as big a wage increase as possible every time they approach the bargain ing table. Eisenhower is most anxious to avoid any sort of intervention which would have any appear ance of favoring one side over the other. He thinks both sides are straining for any sign of that sort.

Eisenhower is determined that the budget for the next fiscal year starting July 1, I960, will show a surplus. He is equally determined that the budget for the current year will be balanced.
