- ; . . rt PAGE I HERALD AND NEWS, Klanialh Falls, Oregon Monday, July 2, 1963 King Tries To Defend Integration Against 'Red Move' Accusations By I'oited Press International Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. cur rently is having a rash of diffi culties defending his non-violent integration movement against ac cusations that it is being infil trated by workers for world com munism. King calls this a smokescreen by "segregationists and race bait ers" to obscure and deflect the national move by Negroes for civ il rights. The latest incident on this score Involves a rather mysterious fig ure known variously by four names but most often as Jack O'Dell. Two congressional com mittees have labeled him as part of the Communist setup in the United States. He has worked twice for King's Southern Chris tian Leadership Conference (SCLC), mostly as a money raiser Dr. Kerron To Attend Bend Meet County Health Officer Dr. Soth Kerron will attend a regional workshop for local medical inves tigators and law enforcement offi cials, including local police de partments, sheriffs' offices and district attoncys' office in t h e district courtroom, Deschutes County Courthouse, Bend, be ginning 9 a.m., Aug. 6, Dr. Rus sell C. Henry, chief medical in vestigator for tlie Oregon State Board of Health, has dislcosed Dr. William J. Maier, Tri- County health officer and medi cal investigator for Crook, Des chutes, and Jefferson counties, is host and coordinator for the re gional session. Other county health officers expected to at tend, other than Dr. Kerron, are ir. Paul G. Kliewer, Lake Coun ty, and Dr. John H. Weare, Har ney County. - Subjects on tlie agenda of the1 one-day session include the InveS' tigation.of a medical investiga- tor's case, followed by a discus sion of methods of investigating specific types of cases Including deaths from gun shot, poisoning and natural deaths masquerading as violent deaths. The afternoon session will con sist of, a panel discussion In which participants will be Forrest C. Sholes, Deschutes County sher iff; and Louis L. Selken, Des chutes County district attorney, and Urs. Alaier and Henry. The Bend workshop is one of six being Jield at central loca Uons throughout Oregon for the purpose , of developing uniform procedure for Investigating and' reporting deaths occurring as a result of specified conditions or circumstances, Dr. Henry stated, Following published reports last week that O'Dell still ran the New York oflice of SCLC, King summoned reporters to insist that O'Dell had left the employment of his organization "by mutual consent" in June. Tliis came despite a conflicting acknowledgement the same day from King's New York office that 0 Dell still worked there as ad ministrator. King said the dis crepancy obviously was from con fusion and not fact. A spokesman for King later ex plained that O'Dell had dropped by the SCLC office on the day of inquiry but was not working there. King credits the flurry of Com munist charges to two Southern governors Ross Barnett of Mis sissippi and George Wallace of Alabama who testified before the Senate Commerce Committee against the proposed new civil rights bill. Both held aloft a large newspaper photograph which they identified as a picture of King at tending a meeting at the High lander Folk School in Tennessee They said this w.is a place fre quented by Communist sympathi zers. King also defended the school, now defunct because of a revoked charter, saying he had nothing to be ashamed of for be ing there the one time he paid a visit. But the problem still chases the nation's number one Negro civil rights chieftain. Currently, Geor gia Atty. Gen. Eugene Cook has "invited" King to tell him all he knows. King has been defending himself and liis movement against com munism since his early days as a leader of the -Montgomery, Ala bus boycott. In his book on that episode, "Stride Toward Free dom," he relates how in 1949 he studied the Communist manifesto and the writings of Karl Marx in an effort to "try to understand the appeal of Communism for many people." 1 drew certain conclusions which have remained with me," King wrote. "I rejected their ma terialistic interpretation of his tory. Communism, avowedly sec ularists and materialistic, has no pluce for God . . . since for the Communist there is no divine gov ernment, no absolute moral or der, there are no fixed, immuta ble principles. Consequently al most anything force, violence murder, lying is a justifiable means to tlie end. This was ab horrent to me. Constructive ends can never give absolute mo ral justification to destructive means." King still was going strong on the same line last week as he told newsmen: "Tlie SCLC is so firmly estab lished as a Christian non-violent movement that R would be impos sible to be influenced in any way by the method or philosophy of Communism . . . Communism breeds violent revolution . Communism is based on a denial of human freedom which we could never accept." Celebration Loan Okayed DUNSMUIR The Dilnsmuir1 Chamber of Commerce voted at a breakfast meeting Thursday to borrow funds to meet the re maining Railroad Days bills in order to keep the community eel cbration in good standing. Cele bration expenses exceeded in come by over $500 this year due to unfavorable weather conditions during the three-day event. R. L. Palmer chamber presi dent, delegated William Murphy to activate the Dunsmuir Mer chants Association parking me ter committee. Replacement of the parking meter heads with wel come signs is apparently a dor mant project, Palmer noted. "We can't answer questions, un less we have information," Helen Hutaff, who conducts the cham ber information center at the Travelers Hotel, said. She was authorized to seek data from or ganizations, businessmen, and tlie U.S. Forest Service in order to help visiting lodge members, campers, and other visitors to the community.

But tn tlie stump collector's world, Uicy may go a long way fartlier toward helping fill the pocket book than tho (nail box. Postage increases, dollar shrinkage regardless, the hoard ing and collection and trading of stamps goes serenely on, na tionally and Internationally, as II has for nearly a century. Many items of value as widely collected and traded as are post age stamps have regular market places but there is no one center in which tho stamp collector and. tlie dealer do business. The lit erature on collection and evalua tion of stumps is, widespread and international in scope, and tlie novice or the serious professional alike often seek a common stand ard of price if a time comes to do business."

In a new biography of Mao Tse-tung. entitled "Mao Tse tung. Emperor of the Blue Ants." George Paloczi-Horvalh analyzes the long-smouldering dispute. .The hook was published this week by Doubleday and Company. Paloczi-Horvath says al lie dis pute had its beginnings way back in the late 1920 s when Stalin re fused to .recognize Mao's work. The tension grew through the years because of a lack of Rus sian support for the Chinese com munist guerrillas, and continued with the emergence of Red China. HOURS PREPARING Mrs. John Tribe, right, and Adolph Faller, have prepared a thrilling end colorful program, "Wet Spots In History," a public show at the Municipal Swimming Pool. There is no admission charge. The show, complete with fqnny clowns, skits and music, starts at 8; 1 5 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 6. Tlie author sees all power in the nation stemming from Mao, who rules as absulute dictator. At j one time this was guod for China,, but since 1949. when the commun-; ;ists took over the country. Mao's leadership has caused drastic mis takes. The ''great leap forward" of 1958 was one of these, says Palo czi-Horvath. It was a case ot Mao's wishes overwhelming those of the communist central commit teeand those wishes were proved to be wrong. All research material in the bouk was taken from communist .documents. The author spent a jgood deal of time going over the documents both in their original forms and tlieir edited versions to gain a more informed view of Mao's ideas and beliefs by studying what he actually said.

While there are hundreds of dealers in the slamp world, one old U.S. firm, Scott Stamp Pub lications, a division now of Es- quire, Inc., has achieved a prom inent position not by dealing in stamps but by keeping available to collectors and dealers the price structure in the field. It an nually issues a "standard cata logue." listing the price of every major variety ol mint and can ecled postage slamp issued since mm. these number about 150, 000. (Jordon H a r ni e r, editor for Scott's, assembles reports on prices from hundreds of key stamp dealers around the world; about 80,000 price changes arc made each year in the catalogue. A report issued recently on the firm's activities quoted .Joseph Arnslcin, senior vice president of tsquirc. as sayuig that Scott per forms something of the same sort of function as does the .spe cialist in a securities auction market; it has assumed the re sponsibility of maintaining an or dcrly market. Only the price changes that re sult from the constant trading of a slamp, and not the wide price swings due to unusual situations. are entered in the catalogue numbers and are used as identi fication for stamps, rather than a description ot the stamp, around tho world. The emergence of new nations with new postage and the con tinuing steadiness of stamp col lecting as an established hobby led to Esquire's acquisition ol Scott in ltrtvo as an enterprise with growth potential.
