Xrom page l veto power in the council, which Enables ONE nation to stop ln its tracks ANY action that may be proposed there. The point Is that EVEN THAT FAR BACK Russia was proposing (o go her own way, regardless of opposition, and devised the one Imtion veto as the way to enable her to do what she proposed to po, ' IT is clear now (as it really was THEN) that with ONE na tion holding the power of veto fiothlng effective In the way of enforcing world peace can bo ac complished by ANY kind of or ganization of nations. Suppose that ln the Semite of the United States ONE senator Jiold the power of absolute veto. What, in such a situation, could bo hoped for from the Senate In the way of constructive legisla tion? The answer Is as plain as Jhe nose on your face NOTH ING 1 Everybody knew that at San Francisco, but in those days we HOPED that ANY kind of un or ganization of nations committed even technically to the cause of universal peace MIGHT do SOME good. . , , ... WE all know now that United Nations is a weak reed to lean upon. Nobody knows it bet ter than the men who are par ticipating Jn the Paris conference. They are nobody's fools. But, weak as it is, United Na tions Is all we have to lean on. So we (by "we" meaning every body not dominated by Russia) arc trying to do the best we can with it. The real purpose of the Paris conference is to try to bring to bear on Russia the power of world opinion. That Is about all that can be hoped for out of the conference. THIS writer still has a notion (based wholly upon guesswork and not in any way on ln."!dc knowledge) that if we knew ALL that transpired at Yalta and at ' Teheran we might find it easier to understand Russia's .present stubborn attitude toward nearly everything anybody else proposes. MEMBERS of the House Rules Committee, both Republican and Democratic, agree In Wash ington that the defeat of Repre sentative Slaughter, of Missouri, is an Important feather in Presi dent Truman's cap. Not only thHt, but they think It may be a good thing generally. Representative Mlchencr, of Mlchagnn h REPUBLICAN) says that if the Democrats retain con trol of the next Congress Slaughter's replacement will help the Rules Committee to "function in the wuy it is Intended to func tion." The way It Is Intended to function, he adds, is to send to the House floor the legislative program of the party in power. (Slaughter, the Rules Commit tee chairman, combined with antl administration Democrats to pre vent any administrative measures from even getting to the floor of the House. That was what Tru man was hitting at when he unid that if "Slaughter Is right I tim wrong.") THE real present trouble with our political system, as It works out In Congress, is that we have no real party program. As a result, Congress is just an aggregation of INDIVIDUALS, with each individual more inter ested in GETTING RE ELECTED himself than in any consistent program of national legislation or policy. t. If we are going to ge' any where, we must have SINCERE party programs, along with ef fective pafty::disclpline to. make them work. COMPETITION By CHARLES A public hearing will be Oregon State Public Utilities termine whether or not the granted a franchise to engage Oregon. This company at interstate lines serving Washington, Oregon and Call fornia. A passenger, for instance, may board one of the Trailways coaches at Roseburg and may travel to any point in Washington or California, but cannot travel to any point en route in Oregon. Three schedules in each direction are operating through Koseburg at the present time, and com pany officials report very gratifying patronage from this area. , In the event the franchise is obtained, the West Coast Trailways will be in direct competition with the Pacific Greyhound Lines, which now has a monopoly upon the local passenger business in Southern Oregon. The Greyhound Company, naturally, is much concerned and is endeavoring to head off competition. Both concerns are trying to secure cooperation and aid from the various communities they serve. , The Pacific Greyhound Lines find themselves in a. very embarrassing spot in Southern Oregon, where endorsement to date has been one-sided and in favor of 'transportation competition. , ; The demand for a competing service is not, we believe, any reflection ;iipon the Greyhound lines. We have found Greyhound officials and employes to be most cooperative and courteous. , They have fully evidenced a sincere desire to give the most efficient service. Although faced with difficult problems throughout the war period, working with inadequate equipment and a shortage of help, Greyhound did its utmost to relieve the transportation congestion to the best of its ability. We have always found the Grey hound people interested in any suggestion for improved service and most cooperative in local problems. Naturally, some complaint is to be expected. It is impossible to please everyone, when service is being given such great numbers of people. But we 'feel that Greyhound is doing an excel lent job. Greyhound, however, i.s the ment arising from the shabby treatment given Southern Oregon by the '.'Friendly" Southern Pacific company. The fact that the Southern Paeific owns a considerable share of stock in the Greyhound lines of our people. . We have had our experience with monopolistic railway .. .... .. it J service. We can recite more the Declaration of Independence. Discriminatory freight rates, woefully inadequate passenger service, discourage ment of industrial expansion would not be our lot if we had a competing rail line. Nor would industrial installations be clusterinK at the end of rail were it not for the monopolistic injustices of the "Friendly" Southern Pacific. i Our experiences with "Friendly" Southern Pacific cause us to welcome competition in bus service, even though we may have no complaint against the company upon which we now depend. Just as a sportsman frequently finds the farmer's gate barred because of the vandalism of some unrcgenorate person who parades under the name of sports man, so the Greyhound Lines are finding a demand for transportation competition through no fault of their own. Gray Downs Pinto; Kiser-NazarianGo Results in Draw Top honors plus a vollcv of boos on the wrestling program at the Roseburg Armory Satur day went to a newcomer, Carl Gray, recent entry In Oregon mat circles, from Wisconsin. A 1!0 pound "meanle" who ducked Into the ropes or crawled o(f the mat to cscano dangerous holds, Gray was awarded the decision over youthful Jack Pinto after each grappler had won a fall, and the latter, because of a Jaw injury, failed to return for the third stanza. The card opened with a five man battle royal that eliminated Hilly McEuin and established Jack Kiser and Mike Natulan as the Kcml - finalists. Mike dumped Kiser for the first fall w ith a Boston crab hold, In 20:55. Kiser won a draw, however, with a succession of leg stopiers that made Mike quit just as the gong signaled the end of the 30-minute, overall time limit. In the main event, Gray used his much-advertised full nelson hold to take the lirst fall from Pinto in l(i:23. The second fall went to Pinto in 10:25 with a succession of body slams and an arm stretch. Gray, visibly out weighing the youth at least ten pounds .Manned out considerable elbow and fist work during this round, as long as he remained Inside the ropes, ana at the end Pinto was found with two loosened teeth and a suspected Jaw fracture. Upon (he advice o( a physician, the youth aband oned the bout, automatically for feiting victory io Gray. Applause of the 700 spectators went lo the game, (lustily loser, and their Jeers went (o the un orthodox winner.

San Diego Split (By the Associated Press) The up-and-coming Sacramen to Solons, who only a week ago Jumped out of the second divi sion of the Pacific Coast League today were threatening to make a fight out of it with Los An geles for the third place spot. The Solons wound up their successful invasion of Los Ange les with 9-to-7 and l-to-0 wins in yesterday's doubleheader. They won the series six games to one and climbed to within 14 games of the Angels. This week the Solons take on second-place Oakland. From the way they have been traveling, they might prove embarassing to the Oaks, who are currently three games behind league-leading San Francisco and trying hard to keep the pace. i The Seals won both ends of (heir doubleheader at Seattle to clinch the series, four to three. Both games -were shutouts, the first by 5 to 0 and the eight inning nightcap by 2 to 0. Snn Francisco s other two wins in the series also blanked the Rainiers.

This week's schedule opening tomorrow sends Portland -to San Francisco, Seattle to Hollywood, Los Angeles to San Diego and Oaltlund to Sacramento. Cardinals Again Crowd Brooklyn For League Lead 1 (By the Associated Press) The St. Louis Cardinals once more are breathing on the necks of the National League leading Brooklyn Dodgers, princpally be cause of the prodigious siickwork of their great one-two punch, Musial and Slaughter. Led by these thumping twins, (he runner-up Cards swept both ends of a doubleheader from the Cincinnati Reds, 15-4 and 7-3, Vesterday to advance within a half-game of ihe Dodgers, who lost twice to the Philadelphia Phillies. Musial and Slaughter, who be tween them lead the National League hitters In six of the eight major offensive departments, en Joyed one of their best batting days of the season, with Musial getting eight hits in 10 times at bat and Slaughter six in nine. Apparently aroused by Chicago Cubs General Manager Jimmy Gullugher's statement that they "faint every time the Dodgers come into their park," the Phils released all their fury on six Brooklyn pitchers and downed the Brooks twice, 7-6 and 6-4. The pair of victories ended a skein of 12 straight Brooklyn wins this season and marked the first time Philadelphia had beat en the Dodgers at Shibe Park since Sept. 10, 1944. Bosox, Yankees Split The New York Yankees and American League-loading Boston Red Sox divided a doubleheader which took five hours and 11 minutes to play.
