Newspaper Page TextJ ROSEBURG NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURG, OREGON. TUESDAY, MAY 21, 194& FIVE Washington Hews From an Inside View - :' . Argument, Sentiment, -Comment By HARRIS ELLSWORTH Congressman, hourrn Oregon District $74,000,000 For Propaganda ' In previous letters, I have men tioned the adminstration . propa ganda machine which has been pretty successful in smearing all members of Congress who vote contrary to New Deal wishes. They attempt to make us- appear , to be "enemies 'ot the people." You might be interested to know that money you pay in fed eral taxes finances this propa ganda program. F. J. Lawton, Bureau of the Budget executive, told the Appropriations Commit tee of the House reectnly: "Employment in education in formational, promotional and pub ' licity activities of the executive branch of the Federal government for the fiscal year 1946 is esti mated as follows: Full-time em ployees, 23,009; employees devot ing more than 1 week but less than their full year to these ac tivities, 22,769; total estimated ex penditures for personal service JSAA other obligations, $74,829,467." With 45,000 people on the public payroll pouring out words sup porting the present type of gov ernment and blasting those who oppose it, can you blame me for objecting to spending public funds for sucn a propaganda macnine : Willamette Project Funds Possibly due to the fact that aDDroonanons for the Willamette Valley project were included in two different mils passea aurmg this session of Congress, there is some misunderstanding as to just how much money has been allo cated to Willamette flood control this year. More than $3,250,000 was appro priated for the Willamette pro tect in the first deficiency appro- - priation bill. The regular bill as finally approved by both Houses of Congress appropriated addi tional amounts making the grand total to be expended on the Wil lamette project this year $8,721, 700. The detailed amounts are as fol Dorena Dam, $3,018,200; Detroit Dam. $3,700,000: Meridian Dam (Lookout PL), $1,000,000; bank nrotection. $512,000; miscellane ous, including plans and surveys on Sweet Home, Quartz Creek Dams, $491,500. Total $8,721,700. Critical Feed Shortage Feeds for livestock and poultry will become increasingly scarce in Oreeon during the next several weeks. No real relief is probable until the 1946- harvest is under ay, starting in Texas early in i Inventory of wheat supplies in the Northwest, just completed by the Department of Agriculture, in dicates, that there will be suf ficient grain to cover government purchases and meet demands for feed only after some curtailment in flocks and herds. Mill feeds will be a little more plentiful because millers in the Northwest are op erating at capacity. Protein sup plies lor May win stand at ciose to 80 per cent of the May 1945 quantities. , - AH wheat being purchased by the government under the bonus program is being snipped, teed mixers and farmers are getting no wheat because they cannot legally pay the price offered by the gov ernment This program continues until May 25th, when the bonus will be dropped. Though the gov ernment will continue to purchase for foreign commitments, the gov ernment price will be the same as that which anyone else may oiler. The recently announced price increases on grains are -designed to bring grain onto the market, but will make it less profitable for producers to use grains for feeding.

EDWARDS Timely Tiff "He that dwelleth in the se cret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty." This inspired statement is the highest peak in the mountain range of thrill ing promise recorded in "Holy; Writ." It gives the assurance of the Christian's constant fellow-: ship with God and-of His un limited protection and over-'; sight. What an lnestlmnb!e Erivilege and' honor it is to ave the Eternal and Almighty God as our refuge and fortress at all times, as we journey through life in this trouble world. To be so intimately united to our Heaveny Father that we can confidently say: "He is my God; in Him will I trust." mat trust will bring the fulfillment of every prom ise found in the Word of God. It makes us more than con querors. Why should we be dis turbed with doubts and fears? God is fully able to keep everv -promise He has made. "With long life will I satisfy him. and show Him my salvation." "God never fails." How many times we have been heart-broken at the unfaithfulness of a friend and what an inspiration it is to know there is one who never fails. "The soul that on Jesus still leans for repose, I will not, I will not desert to his foes;' That soul though all hell should endeavor to shake, I'll never, no, never, no, never forsuke." Amen.
