IP WE had been told about this agreement at the time of the Potsdam conference, we would have accepted It as a perfectly reasonable arrangement. The rea son we weren't told about It Is that traditional diplomacy Just doesn't operate that way. rIE campaign now being waged for INTERNATIONAL free dom of the press is intended to prevent Just such things as this secret Potsdam agreement on the Kurlles. If reporters had been present at Potsdam, telling us all about It as it happened, It would have seemed quite reasonable to us as it really Is. But, coming with a Jolt, as a DISCLOSED SECltET, It up sets us. THAT Is what honest newspa pers mean when they talk about freedom of the press. Freedom of the pns Isn't Just racket for newspapers. It Is a guarantee of the basic right of Ihe people to know what Is going n BEKOHE THEY AHE COM MITTED TO IT. THERE arc still Jitters In the China news, where both fac tions (the Chungking govern ment and the communists) arc accusing each other of bad faith in the keeping of the stop-shooting truce. As nearly as can be guessed from hints in the news, we have apparently COMMITTED our selves to a policy in China that Involves the use or the threat of FORCE if necessary to bring about certain objectives. If we can rehabilitate and reconstruct China into a good customer, the K)llcy will have been amply Jus tified and we and the Chinese will benefit greatly. It is obvious that in carrying such a policy through lo accom plishment we SIMPLY MUST have at our command the KIW KK to make It work. Otherwise It will fizle-Just as domestic law enforcement would fizzle without a police force to back It up. BUT again, following the tradi tional methods of diplomacy, we kept at least the details of the commitment secret. As a result, hundreds of thou sands of American GI's NOT UNDERSTANDING the situa tion, not knowing what it was all about, feeling that their Job whs DONE, kept in ignorance of their country's commitments have be come restive almost to the point of insubordination. Now that the harm lias been done, there Is a lot of explaining. The harm could have been avoid ed by greater frankness at the beginning by telling the people, Including those still in the armed forces, what our commitments are and WHY wc shall continue to need a large military force. COMPLETE International free dom of the press, with re porters present at all these con ferences Hiid free lo tell Ihe pub lic oil that was Rolng on. would have avoided this actuation by making It plain from the start what our obligations and our commitments are and WHY we must have the power to carry them through. Situation! such as these help to explain why complete Interna tonal freedom of the press la an Important step in nuking wars less likely. SHOULD BE By Cherl.s V. Sfantoa The Oregon Coast Association Is reported to have approved expenditure of $11,800 to promote tourist travel to the coastal area. Part of the money is to be spent in preparing a sports fishing guide. We might suggest the street peddlers' "come-along" cry: "Hurry, hurry, hurry, before its all gone!"; for if the people of Oregon do not awaken soon to threatened extinction of sports fishing in our coastal streams, that source of tourist attraction will be beyond recall. But the association is to be commended for its aggres sive approach to what promises to be one of Oregon's greatest opportunities. Wm. G. Oves, president of ciation, predicts expenditures amounting to $13 billion by tourists in 1916. If his estimate is correct, it would average out at about $312 million per state. Oregon's tourist income prior to the war was approximately $50 million. California received more than $100 million from tourists and Washing ton $90 million. Oregon's goal for 1916 has been set by Governor Earl Snell at $100 income. Yet 1946 should not be great majority of motor vehicle owners will be driving old cars. Many persons will not trips. We cannot expect the people secure new automobiles But if tourists are to spend $15 billion in 1946, why shouldn't Oregon expect to enjoy at least a state average, or $312 million, instead of the $100 million set as a goal? The answer Is obvious. We can't expect our proportion until we go after it. California and Washington have pro moted tourist travel and, as a result, are getting the lion's share of benefits. Vet Oregon has as much, or more, to offer in the way of natural scenic and recreational resources as either of the neighboring But we haven't built the type resources; we have not developed resorts; we have not pro moted nor advertised our advantages ; we have not developed sufficient pride among our own of Oregon's superiority. A great part of California's tourist income is realized from winter vacationists who southern portion of that state. Yet greater numbers of persons in these United States would travel to Oregon for winter sports in the high Cascades if we developed and promoted the winter recreational possibilities of that area. Our coastal streams are, at the present time, experienc ing the annual run of winter steclheads. The season will continue through February and into March. We can't promise continuation of stcclhead runs unless people of Oregon awaken to the destruction being wrought by com mercial nets, which already have almost destroyed our Chinook salmon runs, and made heavy inroads on Silverside salmon. But fishermen from every state in the Union could be brought to Oregon for the winter steclhead fishing if we would eliminate nets, provide housing accommodations, and advertise the sport to the world. We have been reading in a popular outdoor magazine how plans are being made to expend millions of dollars in an effort to restore fishing to Atlantic coast streams, where fishllfe has been destroyed by commercialism and pollution. Oregon must cither take steps now to save our fish or we, too, within a few more years, will be spending millions of dollars to try to bring back the resources wc have permitted a ruthless and destructive industry to take from us. We are aiming at $100 million out of an estimated $15 billion tourist expenditure. Our aim is low. There is no reason why Oregon shouldn't top the state average by a large margin, except for the fact that we haven't the vision, or lack ambition, to make the required effort for protection, development and promotion. The Oregon Coast Association seems to have both vision and ambition. We hope the spirit is contagious. Jas. E. Slattery Named Forester in O.&C. Office Here W. H.

All was not amicable, as Daun Lillard. 159 pounder, was awarded the winning decision over Spring field's McDonald, at 154. Spring field's coach threw his towel in disgust on the floor of the Junior High School auditorium. His lad had a bloody nose, but had thrown In several telling blows, and a few times had all but stopped his opponent and pushed him against the ropes- Ray Lord, 1G9, who fought Springfield's Wan, 1G5, in the last bout before the Intermission, knocked his opponent cold in the second round of their match. An other who took a count was Rose burg's Maynard Tally, 117, who was knocked flat in the third round by Hughes, 119. Tally man aged to rise to his knees, finally to his feet, but he staggered, and the flht went to Hughes. Tally had shown himself to be light stepping and a good feinter and ducked many of the punches thrown at him. Other Result Ted Whltworth, 116, of Spring field, took the first bout of the evetiint; by pummelling 113-pound tan uoen s neaa witn weu-aimed, blows. Most of the time Whit worth's gloves were directed at Oden s nose. Clair Von Schultz, 12.". knocked his Sp.ingfield opponent, Cooper, VsH. grctgy in two rou ds. Dale Guse, 125, threw his gloves savagely at uioie, izi. At one point they locked arms and Bible was helpless against the ropes Guse took the ficht. Bob Hatcher, 142, fought well against Meteer, 139, and took the decision, nut the fight might have gone the other way, and Springfield's coach had a brief conference with Referees Dick Oilman and Orlie Xennerllne. Jr. The referees' decision was final, however. Bill Anderson. 147. won over Sponskowski, 152, who was tall and rangy and might better have been a basketball player. Al Morisette, 147, took more blows than he delivered and lost the fight to Akers, 150, of Spring- iiein. An unofficial fleht. which had no effect on scorini;, was fought by Bob Horand, ltil. tailor than his opponent, but otherwise even- ly malonea with Bode, it2. Hor and was W'lnner, for Roseburg. Ken-haired Wes Ashvorn. 1.17. the "Roseburg Killer," fought to a draw with Stacy, U4. Ashworth re.' nagea to land jor.ie trip ham mer punches. Bob wilhlte, 117, was some what shorter than his Springfield opponent, Raugh, 152. Raugh was winner and gave more than he received. Lloyd M a y b o r n. 131. and Adams, 13-1, fought to a draw. IMversionary interest was pro vided last night by a wrestling match between Croucher and Pet tit, both of Roseburg. Although Pettlt won, Croucher gamely stuck and didn't give up until tnc nnai gong.
