Not only that, but everyone, world wide, would live happily, too, and love the United States and its people. Also its way of life, chewing gum, movies and all. That is how the script read back there in 1918. Our man Woodrow Wilson was a great phrase - maker although a posi tive sucker fur European diplo macy as were some uf his side boys who succeeded him in the White House. Our man was sin cere like a Madison Avenue pitch man. He believed his own slogans and his fan mail. But Wilson and his fellow citizens were bewitched and benumbed Rockefeller Returning To Miami NEW YORK 'UPI i - Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller, the only announced candidate for the Republican presidential nomina tion, today prepared for a mid week political foray to Miami. The governor will be in his office here today and Tuesday tuning up fur his address to a group of newspaper editors and two taicd television interviews in Miami Wednesday. Rockefeller is not expected back in Albany, the state capi tal, until Thursday at the ear-, licst. When he arrives in Miami, he will be returning to the scene of a recent triumph. In September, Rockefeller boosted his sinking political for tunes by emerging as a cham pion of civil rights at the Na tional Governors Conference in the southern resort cily. The governor sought to bring his strong pro-civil rights reso lution to a vote at the confer ence, but was blocked by south ern Democrats who charged Rockefeller with "politicking." Nevertheless, public acclaim received by the governor for fighting for civil rights legisla tion impressed liberal Republi cans worried by the effect of Rockefeller's divorce and re marriage. Rockefeller also delighted al most everybody in the GOP by causing Democratic governors to sidestep voting on tlie civil rights issue to which tlie Ken nedy administration had given top priority. Rockefeller announced his candidacy for tho GOP presi dential nomination last Thurs day in Albany and then left im mediately for a two-day cam paign junket in New Hamp shire, where the nation's first scheduled presidential primary occurs March 10. Rockefeller is rated the un derdog in New Hampshire, where Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona has the backing of most of the slate's GOP lead ers. Undaunted by the underdog label. Rockefeller opened cam paign headquarters Sunday in the nation's capital and Friday in New Hampshire. Police Ponder Plant Burglary Police arc investigating the weekend burglary of the Donco Inc. plant, 1540 Elm Street, in which an electric drill was tak en. J. W. Bailey discovered the break-in Sunday afternoon. He told police tlie tlieft occurred be tween 4:30 p.m. Friday and 3 p m. Sunday.

Pause In Silence Armistice Day was celebrated with noisy toasts to dreamy ob jectives never really achieved, with parades and such. And for many years there was in the United States the ritual of two minutes silence. At 11 a.m. on Nov. 11, United Press wires would fall silent for two min utes, an eerie thing, and citi zens would pause in the streets; yes, and even in the speakeas ies. London bus riders who passed the memorial cenotaph in Whitehall, going to and from their daily chores, would un cover their heads and think a moment for the dead. But the two minutes of silence got lost somewhere over the years and the British in White hall no longer bare their heads. Armistice Day is almost forgot ten, though still an official holi day known as Veteran's Day. Armistice Day was well named. An armistice is merely an in terruption. The interruption was not for long. There was no peace then and there is no peace now except for those who died. Goldwater Stands Firm WASHINGTON (UPI) Sen. Barry Goldwater, R-Ariz., is not going to speed up his decision on whether to seek the GOP presidential nomination because Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller al ready has entered tlie race. Goldwater told United Press International that the announce, mcnt of Rockefeller's candidacy Thursday would not affect his timetable in tlie least. The sen ator made the statement in re ply to questions submitted by UPf. The Arizona conservative is expected to announce his deci sion in January. Sen. Norris Cotton, R-N.H., urged Goldwa ter Sunday to declare his can didacy for tlie nomination he fore January or risk losing the New Hampshire primary on March 10. Cotton said in a television in terview that Goldwater could "very well kiss New Hampshire goodbye" unless he declared himself soon enough for local supporters to campaign for him. Cotton is a Goldwater backer. . Rockefeller went immediately to New Hampshire to campaign after announcing his condidacy. He also plans to enter the Cal ifornia primary on June 2 and has challenged Goldwater to run against him in both con tests. Goldwater told UPI that if he became a candidate he would expect to enter the New Hamp shire and California primaries and perhaps others where there was no "favorite son." The senator also said it would be "highly illogical" for anyone to suggest that he might shift away from some of his conserv ative views if he campaigned for president. He suggested that perhaps Rockefeller might be willing to say "where and why he differs with so many Republicans." Goldwater also took swings at tlie Kennedy administration and opposed a congressional pay raise. Truck Involved In Collision A tow truck was right at tlie scene when an auto crash oc curred Friday night r- because the tow truck was inolved. Police said the Bill's Towing truck driven by Cecil Arthur Sellers. 27, 320 North Filth, clipped a parked car as it was rounding tlie corner at North Fifth and Pine streets. The parked car is owned by E. F. Longer, 2936 Bisbee. Neither vehicle was in need of tlie truck's services.

Cubans Execute Five As Rebels HAVANA i UPI '-Five Cifcans were executed Thursday on charges of participating in a counter-revolutionary band that killed a militiaman on patrol, the newspaper El Mimdo re ported Saturday. Mundo said the men were condemned to death by a Revo lutionary tribunal for an attack Oct. 3 in I rural area near I HaNana Absolving Jews Doctrine Rids Ancient Tradition VATICAN CITY l'PI - A document before the Ecumeni cal Council absolving Jews of sole responsibility for the death of Jesus Christ would wipe out centuries of Roman Catholic Church tradition. Pope Innocent III told coun cil fathers of the Fourth Lat eran Council in 1215 that Jews were condemned to perpetual servitude because they crucified Christ. Numerous other church ac tions and statements dating back to the Fifth Century con tributed to the anti-semitism which persists today, although the Catholic Church and its 'Popes also acted at times to curb the extremes of anti-Jewish -practices. Tlie Fourth Lateran Council ruled that Jews and Saracens (Arabsi living in Christian countries were to wear a dis tinctive badge of yellow cloth sewn on their clothing. Hitler Takes Cue Adolf Hitler thus took a cue from a council of the church when he required 20th Century Jews in conquered Europe to wear such badges. The ruling of the Fourth Lat eran Council was enforced in several European countries up until the time of tlie French Revolution in 1787. The Christian antagonism to ward Jews originated in the an cient belief that Jews were the murderers of Christ. In the early centuries priests, some times deliberately, whipped up anti-Jewish passions with heat ed sermons during Holy Week recounting the death of Christ. Indignant Christians came out of the churches and attacked Jews. A widespread belief of the time held that Jews kidnaped Lost Jeep Recovered A Central Point man lost his jeep while he was towing it from Klamath Falls to Med ford and it wasn't until two days later that tlie location of the vehicle was reported to Ore gon State Police.

The lost vehicle was discov ered by Bryant Schcttler, 194 Dahlia Street, who called po lice Saturday evening and re ported observing tlie jeep at the bottom of an embankment on Aspen Lake Road, near the Geary Ranch.

But despite the actions of tlie councils the Jews enjoyed papal protection from tlie time of St. Gregory the Great 5t604i. Gregory IX, the stern foun der of the Inquisition, issued a papal bull in 1235 denouncing mob violence against Jews. In nocent PV in 1247 repudiated the legend of tlie ritual murder of Christian children by Jews. Gregory X in 1272 ruled tlie testimony of a Christian against a Jew should not be accepted unless confirmed by a Jew. Moore's car went out of con trol and rolled over several times along the highway before it stopped in a field on the right side of the road. Meanwhile, Sieben's car veered off of tlie road and came to rest in a ditch on the same side of the highway. The accident devel oped as Sieben, southbound, was attempting to overtake Moore's car. Sieben was appre hended on the alcohol charge.
