Do you ever wonder what Plato wrote for his Saturday column? Not "The Republic," I'll bet. Column-wise, "The Republic" is strictly Sunday stuff: big, serious, double-dome. Heavyweight thinking went into "The Republic." Sunday-column thinking. Maybe an editor would have let Plato get by with "The Republic" as a Wednesday or Friday column. Both days can accommodate earnest, no-nonsense columns.

IN the crowded Nodine Hill section of this city, where generations of newly arrived Italians and Irish once settled, prospered and eventually moved to more affluent neighborhoods, Walid Fanek, a 40-year-old delicatessen owner from Jordan, caters now to a new wave of immigrants -- his fellow Arabs. He works in a neighborhood of shops and modest multifamily houses, where blacks, Hispanic residents and Arabs intermingle peacefully most days -- and where, at the corner of Elm and Oak Streets, he proudly stocks the bulging shelves of his tiny market with Middle Eastern delicacies like jameed (dried yogurt), pine nuts and fresh spices.

To the Editor: Dr. I. Herbert Scheinberg's assertion that The New England Journal of Medicine impeded the flow of information to the public on the role of aspirin in preventing heart attacks (letter, April 30) contains multiple errors. Contrary to his statement that we held the authors to our timetable, we waited an additional week (of the five weeks between receipt of the manuscript and publication) at the authors' request, to let them honor their commitment to inform trial participants before the results were made generally available.

As technical announcements go, this one is a real page turner. A Japanese copier company has developed a system that it says will automatically turn pages, making it far easier to make photocopies from books and magazines. The Ricoh Company said it believed its system was the first such system. Given the time people spend standing over copiers lifting up a book, turning the page and placing the book back down on the glass, it is perhaps surprising that it has taken several decades since the advent of xerography to open this chapter in technology.

Public Power Supply has one nuclear plant producing electricity. The only other nuclear plant in the Northwest that ever generated power, the Trojan plant in Rainier, Ore., owned by Portland General Electric, was closed in January 1993.
