STANTON ' Congressman Harris Ellsworth is reported from Washing ton as predicting the baring qf war scandals, which, in com parison with previous national relative bearing as a firecracker to an atomic bomb. urapevine rumors irom months hinted at war scandals when given public airing. been bared previously, it is said, is due to efforts of the Nudeal majority in Congress to protect some party leaders. There is, of course, the possibility that the "whispering campaign" is a political move by the Republicans to dis credit the Nudeal and thus gain congressional control. But the insistence of rumor, the "exposures" by news and radio commentators, and the current investigations by the Senate War Investigating Committee, would seem to lend credence to the theory that something big is brewing in the national capital. We have seen how politics can prevent the public from learning the true state of affairs, as we recall how an inves tigation of Pearl Harbor was public still is not satisfied with any of the several reports submitted. Politics have sunk to a low protect criminals, profiteers and extortionists in high places, simply because of their worth to the party. That is what comes from the American public's willingness to elect rub ber stamps, stooges, and representatives of special interests to places in government. County Sanitarian Plan Must Wait Unless the county court can find some method of provid ing for salary and expenses of a county sanitary engineer, it appears that inauguration of this much needed service! must be postponed for at least another year. Attorney Gen eral George Nouner has ruled that the county court does not have authority to include in the budget an item rejected by the budget committee. Failure of the plan exposes one of the many weaknesses of Oregon's budget law, which requires the appointment of a committee of persons, usually completely ignorant of the detailed affairs of the corporate body for which a tentative financial budget is to be prepared. In this particular case a largo share of responsibility for failure pf the project must rest with the sponsors. It is obvious the members of the budget committee were not fully infonnod. The budget committee, on the other hand, appar ently did not take the trouble to conduct any extensive in vestigation, as evidenced by the lack of detailed knowledge displayed by one of the committee members at the recent public, hearing. (Need, for ) sanitarian is plainly evident by anyone who Will take even a few hours for study and investigation. Many of our restaurants and taverns arc in an exceedingly un sanitary condition. Our various communities are expanding at a very rapid rate with no provision for sewage disposal and no safeguards to public health. If we escape epidemics of typhoid, infantile paralysis, dysentery and other diseases emanating from unsanitary conditions, we will be extremely fortunate. It is quite possible that the county court, if it has a mind to do so, may find a way of declaring an emergency, author izing enlargement of the health department by employing an "assistant" to the health officer the assistant, in fact, to serve as a sanitarian or some other method of meeting the situation. We hope it will npt be necessary to wait for another year, but, if the county court does not take a progressive and ag gressive attitude on the proposition, we should see that strong presentation is made to next year's budget committee Chicago Cubs nosed out the New York Giants, 5-4, in 1 1 Inlngs.

His Regime Will Improve Georgia, Talmadge Asserts MONROE, Ga., July 30.- UP) Governor-nominate Eugene Tal madge expressed belief todav that there will be a minimum of such "atrocities" as the lynch ing of four Negroes here last Thursday during his four-year lerm turning in January. The Democratic nominee to succeed Gov. Ellis Arnall issued a formel statement from nis At lanta law office upon his return from a vacation trip in the west. "During my three terms as governor of Georgia, there was not a lynching in the state," Tal madge said. "I am very sorry that a lynching did occur under the present governor's adminis tration and 1 sympathize with him and know that it did cause him chagrin and embarrassment. "While I am governor, I know that such atrocities will be at a minimum. It is very regrettable that mob violence occurs in unv sectlon of the country." laimaage aaued tnat thero was "Kreat deal of mob violence In Detroit, unieago and other sec tions of the country during the past few years" and commented: "The people of Georgia always sympathized with other sections when such occurrences happened. . . . The better thinking people v m-ingici lyni-w lliui 11 was not a reflection on the state ... but only on the individuals who com mitted the crime." State police reported they had run into a "stonp wall" in track ing down every lead in the in vestigation of the multiple Negro lynching near here. Neighbors Won't Talk "We have talked to a lot of people and gotten nowhere," said MaJ. William E. Spcnce, head of the state police. "We think we know who some of the members of the mob are, but we can't prove it." Spcnce said that the "good peo ple in Walton county wouldn't talk about the massacre even though some of them "know wio members of the gang are." The state of Georgia, through Gov. Arnall, has offered $10,000 reward for information leading to the conviction of the 20 odd mobsters who shot down four Negroes near here Thursday.

M. A little tired Of talk of shortatres nnrl priorities, Tom Stcdman, 16, high school junior, has solved the essential farm power problem for his parents' Tcsuoue ranch by. constructing his own tractor after school hours. Stedman, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wilfred Stedman, started the tractor along with his work as a first-year machine shop student under the supervision of L. H. Manker. He completed the 500 pound vehicle at a cost of $112. Collecting most of his parts from Junk yards, Stcdman used a 14-horsepower Brlggs - Stratton engine, two model A Ford trans missions, a model T differential, 616 back tires and dual 16-inch wheelbarrow wheel front tires.
