Joe Martin, Republican leader In the house of representatives, says: "The Republican party ac cepts the RESINSIDILITY the American people by their man date have placed in our hands." Senator Taft, who is s clear thinker and less hidebound than he sometimes nppears to be, says the election shows the American people are opposed (now) to giv ing an "arbitrary central govern ment the power and money to regulate their daily lives," and adds: "Under Republican leadership we can sit down calmly and work out the CONSTRUCTIVE meas ures necessary for peace, for full employment under private enter prise and for social welfare, while leaving the people free to run their own affairs." THE Job the Republican party faces Isn't an easy one. For a decade and a half we have been treading the primrose path, light-heartedly squandering the wealth accumulated by the Industry and the frugality of our forefathers. We have been fol lowing the will o' the wisp whose name Is Something for Nothing. We have been happily trying to spend ourselves rich. All of a sudden, we are discov ering that pleasant and carefree extravagance doesn't bring the abundant life. Our pockets are full of money that won't buy much. Wc are face to face with disil lusionment. IT is easy to go to the polls and mark a cross In front of the name of a Republican candidate But that won't be enough. We are heavily in debt. It lakes WORK to pay off debt as everyone knows who has tried it. It takes frugality as well, and frugality is never fun. We are short of goods which arc as hard to come hy as at the depth of the depression In the early 30 s. It takes WORK to make goods. Wand waving won't do It. Marking a cross on a bal lot won't do it. If the Republican party Is to lead us out of the wilderness ue are wandering In, it will first have to tell us that with the help of sound leadership we must WORK Ol.'R WAY OUT -that we can't dance and sing and fri vol our way to real and lasting prosperity. WE aren't going to like It. No body ever likes paying the plKT. Hut the piwr must he paid. If the Republican party Is to STAY in power, It must make us like it by the process of showing us results In return for our work and our frugality. THK leaders of the Republican party- both those present and those yet to be chosen -will do well to offer up this simple pray er for help and guidance: "Wc ask Thee, Oh Lord, lor t lie strength and the coinage to guide our nation wisely anil well In the difficult years lli;;t lie Im mediately ahead.

CONSERVATION ADVANCED By C1IAULES V. STANTON Pasxpge of the Coastal Streams Fishing bill by a ratio of approximately 2 to 1 in the State of Oregon places respon sibility upon conservation forces to work cooperatively with commercial interests in a program designed to increase fish life in the state's coastal waters, W. J. "Bill" Smith, presi dent of the Oregon Wildlife Federation, told us in a tele- imone conversation lonowing i uesuny s election. Smith, a resident of Portland, father of the Steelhead bill, beaten in the 1912 election, and chairman of the committee favoring passage of Bill 312, has long been a leader of the conserva tion faction. Elated by passage of the fish bill at Tuesday's election, Smith, nevertheless, is fully aware of the responsi bilities involved. Giant strides have been made in recent years in Oregon's program of fish and wildlife and Fish Commissions have The Fish Commission, once dominated almost exclusively by the packers, has been freed recent months indicated a much deeper interest in conserva tion practices. Both commissions have employed experts "Doc" Needham for the Game Commission and Arne Suo mela for the Fish Commission to direct scientific studies of fish and game management. These two men are nationally recognized for their ability. In previous years we have had a continuing war between commercial fishermen and the so-called sportsmen's groups. Bill 312 was the outgrowth of the first cooperative effort between those two factions, and the success achieved in Tuesday's election indicates that a far better method than open warfare has been developed. "We have been making a mistake all these years in fight ing the fishermen," Smith said in commenting on the elec tion results. "The fishermen and the sportsmen have their interest in common. Both want more fish. We can attain our goal in the future by working in harmony rather than at odds." We believe this plan to be most desirable and capable of producing best results. As long as our Fish and Game Commissions are seriously minded on the subject of conservation, we believe they should be given all possible cooperation. If commercial and sports gether to plan a program of conservation upon which both can agree, even through compromise, and then cooperate with the two commissions in would be virtually no limitation to the possibility of fish and wildlife restoration. Conservationists in past years have concentrated their efforts upon better regulation of net fishing. Over-fishing by commercial interests has been one of the principal influ ences in reducing fish life. But operation of the law made effective at Tuesday's election will remove many of the most ijudcsij'able foattircs of commercial fishing practices. 'With improvement in netting procedure, thus providing for es capement with which to keep our streams stocked with fish, the next step should be the improvement of stream condi tions designed to secure the best possible ratio of reproduction. Many factors, other than over-fishini?, combine to reduce the quantity of fisli life. Pollution is one of the most serious of these destructive factors. Another is found in logfinjj practices which strip forest cover, permitting; heavy washing of spawning beds, and depositing ashes from slushing fires into the streams to change chemical content, leaving obstructions in small tribu taries to halt fish from reaching spawning beds, and nu merous other faults. Still another factor is to be found in some sports angling practices, such as wading over spawn ing beds during spawning season, taking small salmon tnd steclheads in tidal waters during the return migration .season, etc. I'ndoubtedly sports and commercial fishermen, if brought together for serious discussion of these various problems, can be united in an effort to promote better conservation. One major objective has been achieved. The next is to apply a scientific approach to the. problem. The two state commissions are now engaged in scientific studies which are developing a fund of knowledge concerning fish habits, water conditions, and other data upon which improved man agement can be based. Through harmonious relationships between all affected groups and cooperation between com missions, the state's conservation prog ram can be made ery effective in future years.

Editorial Views On Election Vary Widely in Nation Ry the Associated Press) Editorial reaction across the na tion varied widely and sharply on the election results and the sug. gestlon of Senator Kulbright (D. Ark.l that President Truman ap point a Republican secretary of sta.e and then resign in his favor. The sweeping Republican elec tion victories were viewed by editors variously as "a protest I against bureaueracy" and was "a vole of no-confidence in the Tru man administration." Some papers favored the resig nation suggestion, others crili. cied it as impractical under the American system. The Chicago Tribune hailed the election resulls as the greatest victory for "the people since Appomattox." Rut the Chicago Sun, which generally suported Democratic candidates, said: "Kor the Democratic party the lesson of the election is clear. When voters want 'normalcy' and a conservative, backward march, they will turn to the party which is expert in these moves. That is the GOP." "The nation can look forward now to a sharpening of controls over government instead of con trol over people." commented the Minneapolis Tribune. Party Break-Up Seen The Atlanta Constitution In the Democratic Sou.h, said the immediate result of the elections "means without question the breaking up of the Democratic party." The New York Times said "what is urgently needed is prompt recognition, both by the President and by the Republican leaders, of the real risks inher ent in an interregnum in which authority is divided between an executive and a Congress of dif ferent political loyalties." only contusion at nome, and a weakening oi American inllu- K of American in flu- I. ran result from an ' either shir to exploit ence abroad, attempt on this di icU-d authurity for partisan advantage. On the resignation issue, the New York nesp,iier PM, owned by Marshall Field, printed the "open letter to the President" by Field which previously appeared in the Chicago Sun. The letter urged the President to step aside in favor of a UOP secretary of state. But PM, In an editorial signed by Max Lerner, termed Tuesday's election result "a congressional and not an executive mandate" and said that "for :he President to turn a congressional election result into a change of execu'ive lowcr would defeat, lather than further, Ihi' dcmxTatic princi i1"" The I'M editorial added: "The Republican niajorily may try to put through dangerous anti-labor legislation, reckless sunprossions of civil liberties, destructive changes in the control of indus try.

The New York Sun termed the proposal "fantastic" and said it was "not worthy of prolonged discussion." The news of Charlotte, N. C, commented: "Senator Kulbright promises to introduce in the KOth Congress a constitutional amend ment authorizing the Congress to call a presidential election if the opposition party manages to take over the legislative branch in mid term." "This seems to us a wise and necssary piece of legislation and it wouht become both the vic torious Republicans and the be draggled Democrats to support it without reservation.'
