wore just helping the war effort.
More contracts, more munitions.
More munitions, more power to
wage war. And so on.
Not in defense of them, but in
the Interest of clear thinking, it
is true that money was then be
ing thrown around like dirt. On
every hand, we saw evidence of
waste and extravagance. We
were shocked at first. Gradually
we became hardened to it.
What's a few more dollars?
That is the way we came to think
of it. It may have been the way
May and the Caissons came to
think. It Is easy to fall Into the
rut of bad thinking.
Hut the shining truth Is that
NOTHING can excuse corruption
and taking, or giving, a bribe to
got contracts from your govern
ment that can't be got by sound,
honest methods Is corruption in
its lowest form.
It Is a humiliating develop
ment, any way you look at it.
THEME Is another upsetting cir
cumstance in connection with
tills May-Gnrsson business.
May stands before the court
and proclaims his COMPLETE
INNOCENCE. He says: "I stand
before the court today with n
clear, clean conscience. I never
violated a law as far as I know
in the 72 years of my life. 1 never
received a dollar directly or Indi
rectly that was not honestly earn
ed or Justly due."
That brings up a confusing
angle of our modern life in
which we so greatly NEED the
truth. What Is the truth? Who Is
the liar?
CONFUSION destroys confi
donee. Without confidence,
you can't go ahead. If you don't
go ahead, you slip back. There
are many things In tills world
that are wrong. The difficulty we
find In drawing the line between
propaganda and truth Is one of
them.
BOTH houses of congio:s final
ly approve and the President
will probably sign the now law to
UNIFY the nation's armed forces.
Among other things. It will place
all the armed forces under a
singglo cabinet officer to be
known as the secretary of na
tional defense.
It seems a sound step to lake.
Hut, after all, a law is only a
law. It Is what we do with the
law that counts.
IF this new law Is to accom
plish what we want It to ac
complish, it must STRENGTHEN
OUK NATIONAL DEFENSE. If
it Is to do that, it must be realis
tically administered.
if it is to be realistically ad
ministered, we must change our
whole thinking in regard to mili
tary establishments in time of
peace. If wp can't do that, the
new law will do us little good.
IN the past, wp thought seldom
of our price time military as a
FIGHTING FORCE TO SAVE
Ot'fl LIVES AND OUR PROP
ERTY W HEN WAR COMES. We
looked upon nrmy posts, navy
bases, etc., largely as social and
lnr.il affairs.
They were nice adjuncts to any ;
town. They add"d refinement ani j
polish. The officers' uniforms
wcv pretty to gap upon at p.ir
ties. And besides Hie soldiers and
sailors spent a lot of money and
made locai business hotter.
That is about as far as we
went in our peacetime military
thinking. In this column yester

NEED FOR
By CHARLES
United States Senator Guy
victory in his drive to secure restoration of funds necessary
for extension ' of transmission lines from Bonneville into
Reedsport.'ind Coos Bay, as well as elsewhere in Oregon
and Washington.; ; The Senator also has been successful in
partial restoration of; funds cut by the House from appro
priations needed by the Forest Service in its road, manage
ment and research departments.
The Bonneville fight has been a particularly vicious one
and had the unusual aspect of a Senator challenging the
motives of a Representatives from his own state.
Bonneville has many detractors. Some persons have a
personal dislike of the Administrator and his methods.
They would cut appropriations and cripple operations be
cause of their disapproval of the Administrator. This was
the charge made by Senator Cordon against Representative
Stockman. There are also opponents of public power who
would combat any measure having to do with extension of
government-owned generating and transmission utilities.
Anything to interfere with the public power program would
meet with approval from these opponents.
Obviously disapproval of the administrator and his
methods should not be permitted to cripple service by a
needed public utility. Stockman has denied his attitude is
governed by his differences with Administrator Raver or
by personal pique. But if administration is faulty then the
administrator should be removed by direct action, not by
methods which cause injury to many people and to a whole
area critically in need of additional electric power for agri
cultural, industrial, municipal and domestic purposes.
Nor are we sympathetic with those who would oppose
extension of transmission lines. While our personal opin
ions favor the free enterprise system over public ownership
of utilities, nevertheless public power is here and here to
stay. We must make the best of it. We are in desperate
need of additional power. Mills in the Umpqua basin are
losing thousands of dollars because of inadequate electric
service. Mill capacity could be greatly increased, new in
dustries could be attracted, more men could be employed if
we had more electric power.
While wo realize that The California Oregon Power Com
pany is striving energetically to obtain materials and sup
plies with which to extend and improve its service, the de
mand is greater than the company can handle. Inability
to secure utility connections is a serious bottleneck in our
critical housing problem.
Construction of a transmission line by way of Eugene,
Reedsport and Coos Ray would provide much relief in the
area traversed and would permit Copco to channel more of
its production into the central part of the county.
Industrial expansion in the Pacific Northwest will come
in direct ratio to development of electric energy. As rapidly
as our hydroelectric resources are made available, we will
find industrial customers. Jt will be many years, we be
lieve, before we reach the limit of consumer markets for
our power.
It is useless to develop power at a dam without furnish
ing transmission lines to transport that power to places
needing it. We have constructed the dams and are adding
generating units. It is not economically sound to reduce
appropriations for transmission facilities while we have
surplus generating capacity.
Senator Cordon's battle to save Bonneville's construction
program is not "pork barrel"; it is only good business.

League Manager Jack Newby
said today. Tomorrow night,
weather permitting, Wards
takes on Pepsi-Cola and Elks
entertain Sutherlin.
Rain again hampered softball
play at Flnlay Field last week
as second half round robin play
began, causing postponement of
the Sutherlin-Pepsi-Cola contest
Thursday and the Squirt-V.F.W.
fray Friday. The Vets Hospital-J.V.-R.
game was called after
five frames with J.V.-R. leading
8-3.
Schemer's Squirts upheld their
first-half undefeated record aft
er the first week of second-half
play in sweeping over Sutherlin
3-2 and Wards 3 0, while the Elks,
who wound up in fourth spot,
jumped the gun on Vets Hospital,
V.F.W. and Wards, for three
straight wins and a shared spot
on the circuit's perch.
J.V.-R., one of the most
strengthened clubs of the league,
had a perfect record marred in
losing, 3-2, to Sutherlin after
edging out Wards, 3-2, but came
back for a second win in dump

Veterans Hospital, previously
cellarizod with Wards, pulled a
surprise 1510 upset on Pepsi

Pepsi-Cola won their other game,
edging out winnless V.F.W. 8-7.

The pennant picture in the
major leagues had taken on a
new aspect in recent days all
because of a couple of real pro
fessionals Ted Williams and
Dixie Walker.
Look al the picture today. The
Elision Red Sox, led by Will

off the New York Yankees' once
seemingly insurmountable lead
and now trail by nine and a half
games. Of these only eight are
in the important "lost" column.
The Brooklyn Dodgers, with
Walker hittin.': with the same
old gusto that established him as
the "people's choice" in Flatbush.
have opened up a seven-game
bulge over the second place St.
Louis Cardinals, with the Braves
and Giants skidding eight games
in the rear.
Dixie drove In throe runs yes

a double in the second, the Red

By BILL BECKER

The Oakland Oaks, fighting to
stay in the Coast League penant
race, nabbed another pair of one
run decisions yesterday to close
the leading Los Angeles Angels'
gap to four games.
The Oaks downed the San
Diego Padres, 3-2 and 7-6, while
the Angels were dividing with
Seattle, 8-4 and 1-5. The Acorns'
southpaw, Bearden, edged Trei

the opener, won as Van Robays
doubled home Sabol.
Van Robays, the former Pitts

Maybe you do not know it, hut the real burglar with"
proper pride in his work, has a list of prospects just
like any honest salesman. Maybe you are on one of
those prospect lists and when your name is reached
and this man in the black mask visits your home,
what will happen? Would you like to replace your
silverware; the furs and jewelry of your wife; and
any other thing which catrhes the fancy of thui
second story worker? Probably not. That is why we
suggest a Residence and Outside Theft Policy for
your protection. It costs very little.
Our advice cot you nothing and places you
under no obligation.
