CONSERVATION TRENDS

In the country.
Help Is scarce, so people in the
towns got out and helped shovel
the corn Into wagons, whence ft
was i shoveled Into nny kind pi
cribs that could be improvised.
.The mayor pf Omaha' himself
went out and shoveled corn, and
the Worid-Herajd pictures him
mopping his brow and filling his
pipe after a muscular session on
the business end of a scoop
shovel. . " '
One way of providing com
cribs was to go out and collect
all the plat fence, of which there
Is quite a little back here, that
could be spared. Even the great
Union Pacific railroad pulled- up'
Its slat snow fences and hauled
tbem free of charge to the places
where they' were needed worst.
When tied together in a ring and
covered witli some kind of roof
that will turn water, slat, fence
makes a first-rate corn pen.
THE World-Herald estimates
that up to this week 43 per
cent of Nebraska's 'threatened
corn had been saved. When peo
ple work together for a common
cause, It's little short of astonish
ing what they can accomplish.
. It is no less astonishing how
much' such enterprises can be
helped by the leadership of an
able, public-spirited newspaper. A
lot of us in the business are be
coming convinced that a news
paper can help vastly more In
ihls way, at the same time can
become much more popular, than
by trying to run the politics of
its community.
OUT of Omaha at night, and In
to Chicago the next morning.
And in .Chicago one must change
cars, at the very least, and us
ually must wangle his bngaggc
from one to another of Chicago's
seven passenger stations.
-. What the brave new world
will bring us is still pretty much
of a mystery, but a non-wripkle-able
suit 'of clothes and ?., non
sollable shirt would help a lot--iilong
with some magic substance
in a vcy small bottle that when
smeared over whiskers would
cause Ihem 10 go up in sweet
smelling smoke. ' .
One might then be able to
travel light enough to be un-
annoyed by such episodes us car
changing in a city whose railroad
industry is so '.vast as' to make
one union station a physical im
possibility. . : .
WHILE they're about it, inciden
tally, the architects Of the
brave new .world might design
typewriter that could be folded
up and carried fit a vest pocket.
And it would also help If some
genius of the coming age of
'plastics and such would con
struct a hotel on the well-known,
accordion principle, so that , it
migjif be puljetj out 'indefinitely
in' pleats, each pleat expanding
info a room with bath
That would lake a lot of the
fuss and worry out of travel
especially If hotel rooms are even
half as scarce In .'the brave new
world as they are now. '

By Charles V. Stanton
THERE is a definite trend in the Oregon State LcgiBlature
toward fish and game conservation, as evidenced in the
large number of bills already introduced with more still to
come. It also is evident, from votes taken to .date, that bills
promising to improve conservation methods are likely to
meet favor.
We have been commenting at much length on legislation,
pending and proposed, affectjng fishing in coastal streams,
but numerous other matters concerning fish and iyildlife are
before members of the legislature.
There are bills which would close certain small streams
and lakes; bills prohibiting use of motorboata on some, lakes;
programs for beaver control, preation of game reserves, ad
justment of bounties, etc.
One important measure, House Bill No. 157, would give
the state game commission power of .eminent domain to, pro
vide access strips to fishing streams and to open trails along
river banks.
This measure is proposed to repair damage done on some
streams, such as the lower Rogue, where long stretphes of
the, river banks are privately owned and access is denied
tjie public. As more and morS river frontage is' acquired
by wealthy people, opportunities for the less fortunate to
enjoy lishing and recreational privileges will decrease.
There js considerable feeling that commissions should pot
be granted additional powers to condemn private property.
But there also Js the probability that, should H. B. 157 be
passed, the knowledge that the game commissipn had such
power would prevent many land owners from denying use
of trails along fishing streams. '
The power which H. B. 157 would confer upon the game
commission already is in the hands of countv courts. It is
i en I . . .... . . . . . .

Reedsport plan for developing recreational facilities in Doug
las county.
But, as we have pointed out previously, county courts are
usually timid in initiating innovations such as the one pro
posed .by the recreational committee. County courts, in
many instances, might be reluctant to use the power of emi
nent domain in acquiring land from personal friends or from
persons controlling a considerable number of votes. But
if the game commission also has the authority, county courts
might be in a better position to carry out a prograni, while
land owners would be less apt to hold out in opposition,
knowing that the commission could step in if county courts
Were unable to obtain agreements. '
But the land owner also should be given careful considera
tion. We are not upholding the right of wealthy people to!
use their riches to buy up extensive recreational areas for;
their own selfish use, but we are thinking rather, of the j
farmers, wio suffer continually from acts of so-called!
snortsmon Svho leave urates ouen or unlocked, break down.

Hftrrtues, kill' or injure livestock and poultry and otherwise
disregard the rights of the property owner. .
We would like to see legislation that would impose most
severe penalties, including mandatory jail terms, upon any
persons willfully, damaging pr destroying property while
hunting, fishing, or otherwise occupying property npt f.heir
own.
If H. B. 157 is passed, as we hope it will be, it will act to
preserve fishing rights for all people equally in days to
come. But, whether the game commission or county court
sets up access ways, every precaution should be used to treat
the land owner fairly aud safeguard him from damage at
the hands of those who have no respect for property rights.

Aleuts, Dusted by

Back to Homes
JUNEAU, Alaska, Feb. 28.
(AP) Three hundred and sixty
Aleut natives, who don't want
to remain in southeast Alaska
iccause it has "too many trees,"
uill be homeward bound within
a few weeks to the barren
Islands from which they were
evacuated when the Japanese In
vaded the Aleutians in the sum
mer of 1942.
Hon Foster, head of the Of
fice of Indian Affairs, said he
had completed plan with the
army and navy to return the
natives from the three south
east Alaska localities Jn which
they have been living.
Kcscttlemcnt officers will go
along, taking with them sup
plies and material for restock
ing cooperative stores and re
building villages. Teachers will
accompany the refugees.

SETTLE IT NOW
Portland Oregonian
The anglers' and conservation
ists' coast stream measure, com
prising certain additional 'restric
tions on commercial salmon fish
ing. Is due for a vote In the house.
The Oregonian repents Its opin
ion, widely shartri, that thiji bill
should bo approved. The sports
men have done' their share to
ward making concessions, since
they have co-operated for the en
actment of a commercia) fishery
measure which would perpetuate
the great Columbia ' 'industry.
They have now a l ight to expect
something of co-operation in re
turn. There is no fcnse in' lead
ing any longer.
This newspaper has a w ord of
advice for those elements of the
commercial fishery camp I hat
may try to defeat or emasculate
the roiistal streams' measure.
They'd hotter look out. This meas
ure llself is a concession to them,
and half a loal ought to be bet
ter than none. After all, the fish
wealth or Oregon does belong to
the people In general and our
coast streams have been de
pleted. If the anglers' bill doesn't
become law. we predict that its
wmliliuns will prove to have been
mild uy contrast with those of an
eventual' measure that will pass.
The public wants fair play, ami.
sufficiently prodded, will rise up
and demand it. It will be much
heller for" ull concerned if the
salmon fishery dispute is arbi
trated and settled, by mutual con
eovton, lit the present sestfioti. ' '
