STANTON Congressman Harris Ellsworth, in his weekly news letter from Washington, relates that he had a hand in prepara tion of the recent Republican platform. It is a good declaration of policy, but wt have our doubts about its appeal to enough voters. Too many people aren't concerned with deficit spend ing, socialistic trends, communistic leadership in high places, high taxes or other evils of government, while handouts, special privilege, support prices, public housing, high wages and other easement benefit a majority. Talks of economy, balanced budget and constitutional government are apt to fall on deaf ears. Even though many voters must realize that our present socialistic course can lead only to economic suicide, they prefer to let the future take care of itself. They will continue to reap while the sun shines. The very name Republican is one of the hardest hurdles to overcome in beating the Wei-Fare Deal. The titles Democrat and Republican have no special sig nificance in party relationships in these times. Neither party adheres to founding principles. The Republican party, formed on principles of a strong central government, is fighting today for states' rights. The Democratic party, founded to battle centralization of power in the federal government, is advocating valley au thorities which would combine in the executive branch, virtually by-passing legislative and judicial functions. The Democratic party, which fought vigorously for free trade, today is a party of tariffs, subsidies, price supports. The Republican party, which was the party of the com mon people, taking political control from the aristocracy, has, through propaganda, been alliance with Wall street, until this concept has obtained widespread acceptance. The Democratic party, on the other hand, has become "champion Neither party, it is obvious, upon which it was founded. For many years our political and left approaches to policy erly dominated our two major parties. This division between the two lines of political thought has become more pro nounced year by year. Yet we and old party labels. ' Many people were born into their political parties. They follow the party line without thought or reason! The tra ditionally Democratic South, continues to vote Democratic simply because of the name not because of political princi ples. Tha Dlxiecrat revolt shows, however, that the South is beginning to break its traditional, unthinking adherence to a name. Many persons, who have long affiliated themselves with the name Republican, will the time has come to drop the our opinion it is time for a new cognomen, more descriptive of the party's position supporting constitutional government and opposing the swift advance of Socialism. We believe a change of name, eliminating the undeserved odium successfully plastered by propagandists against the name Republican, would draw into the newly-titled party a great number of persons who, while opposed to present day principles of the so-called Democratic party, cannot bring themselves, because of long years of opposition to a name, to align themselves with a party designated by the - Republican title. X-ray Meeting ' Set For Monday At Canyonville By MRS. H. M. ANDERSON Many volunteers art expected to attend a meeting Monday at 8 p.m. at tho Canyonville Community hall to receive final instruction before beginning the house-to-house canvass to sign up adults for a free chest X-ray when the chest X-ray survey begins in Canyonville. March T. Mrs. George Binder, chairman, emphasized the importance of each canvasser's presence at the meet ing. Full explanation of the opera tion of the survey will be given so that volunteers may inform citi zens of the importance of a chut X-ray. Each canvasser would he given a small district and be asked to call en every family in that dis trict with the objective of register ing each edult for a free chest X ray. Mr. It. M. Anderson, co-chairman, stressed again that the chest X-raya are free to all person i It is hoped that members of lo cal clubs and men and women s organizations will become actively associated with the survey, either by offering their services as can vassers or by acquainting others with the urgency of the project. C. R. Bradford of Portland, con cultant on X-ray services, and Mrs W F. Amiot, of Roseburg, execu tive secretary of the Doiglas Coun ty Tuberculosis and Health Asso ciation will be here for a meeting of all volunteer workers Monday night. Persons who can assist in this survey work, should contact Mrs. Binder or Mrs. Anderson be fore Monday afternoon.

The action was directly contrary to that taken three weeks ago by the Klamath County Chamber of Commerce when that organization's board of directors voted 7-1 againat the fc'.OOO.OOO Bonneville plan. The pomona also went on record favoring a continuous waterfowl season rather than the split sea son of the past two years. Church Bans Publication! For Race Problem Stories TAMPA, Fla., Feb. 18.-4.P) Critical of the treatment of race problems by some church publica tions, the Hyde Park Methodist church here has banned all litera ture form the official church pub lishing house. The board of stewards also voted to spread the word of its action to other Methodist churches. The church, one of tlie south'a largest, has 1610 members. The ban applies to 40 publica- uuna. inev run trom publications for kindergarten to the official church organ, the Advocate.

It wasn't their appetites for food they were catering to. 11HV IT i Y, then, do they willingly pay 100 smackers for it, plus traveling expenses to Washington and back? The answer is simple. Five thousand dinners at $100 per will raise a half million dollars for tha party war chest, and it will be worth $100 per to every person who attends (other than reporters) to keep the party in power. ' That's the long and the short of it. ' ; a a a THERE was a time when Republi can big shots and would-be big shots would cheerfully have paid JI00 per plata for a similar dinner for a similar purpose. If the Re publicans had been in power as long ai the Democrats have been in power this time, they would be holding dinners like that now. They might even be willing to pay $500 per plate. I wouldn't know. STAYING POWER is Immensely important to all politicians, and afterall It wouldn't make much dif ference, considering what you had already spent for travel cost and Incidentals, whether you paid $100 or SS00 per plate. Tha big thing ia to b among those present. HAT I'm getting at is this: Tht Republicans aren't in power. They are OUT OF POWER. They got out of power because they lost touch with the people and when they lost touch with the aver age run of people they were thrown out. They can get back into power only by getting back into touch with the common run of people and regaining the confidence of such people. They can't do that now by get ting together at JlOO-per-plate din ners. OW can the Republicans get back? Here is my idea of it: They must get back into the men tal attitudes and the mental philoso phies of the men who founded the Republican party and they must get back the FIGHTING SIN CERITY of the party's founders who put Lincoln into the Presi dency to end the evil of human slavery. a a a THOSE men back in those grave and critical years of the late 1850's thought of themselves as a part of the common run of the people of that day. The common run oi people then wanted to end slavery. They thought of themselves as under-dogs. It seemed to them that ALL THE POWER was. back of the institution of human slavery. They were out to put a stop to that or die in the attempt. Feeling that way, they WON.

One year a large group of P.-T.A. presidents, and others, enjoyed a P.-T.A. course in Leadership un der Mrs. Y's direction. She was a First district vice-president (Calif).

Martin jfpf-J terady a quotation, Mrs Y said, she had kept on her desk where she saw it often . . . "Perhaps the most valuable re sult of all education ia the ability to make yourself do the things you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not; it is the first lesson that ought to be learned; and how ever early a man's training be gins, it is probably the last les son that he learns thoroughly." (Thomas Henry Huxley.) But Mrs. Y had done more than keep the quotation by her tele, phone. She had so disciplined her. self that it became a habit, natu ral, for her to be always kind, al ways poised, unhurried, thought ful of others. I never heard her condemn another for failure in tha qualities which she herself possessed. She is a past president of many clubs and organizations, besides P.-T.A. It wouldn't surprise mi one bit to sea her some day sit ting in the chair of the president of the National Congress of Par ents and Teachers. It shows that in the year ended last June 30, the state spent $143. 318.000. Of that amount, 29 percent was spent for highways, 28 per cent for education, and 17 percent for public welfare. Seven percent went for natural resources, six percent for hospitals and institutions, and four percent for general government. The other 11 percent was spent for all other expenses.

"Tick" MALARKEY Notts of Tha Nightingale These few words are about our nurses. The column is named f'r Florence Nightingale, who durine the Crimea wars organized the first complete unit of nurses to aid the sick and wounded troops of that day. She waa not a nurse; but her name is synonymous with nurs ing. This writer dedicates these paragraphs to our station nurses it is for them, about them. Valentine's night District No. "1 Nurses association, all nurses in Douglas county, were entertained at the Nurses' home. A social eve ning at cards, mostly canasta, was followed by refreshments. Iellie Bauldry reports that per capita the nurses "kicked in" with better than $3.00 a piece to March of Dimes fund. We guess that those persons who see misery the closest are the most liberal with their pocket books. The writer never knew a nurse's purse to shake loose a moth.

We also notice that large numbers of , wild duck are also resting and feed ing on the reservation especially mallards. The ponds up and down the Umpqua all have a few ducks on them now. We are hoping from the numbera of wildfowl we are seeing now that there will be a good hatch tins coming summer. ihe winter steelhead fishing n at its height. The boys are making , nice catches in both the North and South forks of the Umpqua riv er. The winter steelhead run does not ' seem to increase. However, they seem to be holding their own lhere were approximately 375.- 000 small fall run chinook salmon released this winter to attempt to restart the fall run of these fish as they have become rather few in numbers. We are sincerely hoping that the game commission will keep up this good work, and get the North and South Umpquas back to something like it was a few years back. We also hope to see the nets kept out of the river. If this balmy weather keeps up the catfish should be hitting down by the bridge. Special Services has tackle. The exact dates of trout season are not known yet. But we are looking forward to a good year. The Rock creek hatchery has been enlarged and is continually being improved for which we are thank ful. This is something that has been needed for quite a while. On driving through the reserva tion quite a number of pheasants were noticed. This very beautiful game bird is on the decline here in the I'mpqua valley. This is at tributed to a number of reasons. Bad weather resulting in poor hatches, largely increased number of hunters, and a large number of predatory animals both of the four and two legged variety.

Flynn'a "The Road Ahead" was reviewed by Cham ber of Commerce President Harold E. Schmeer as the principal pro gram feature of Thursday night's Lions club meeting. The book, he said, likens the ' so cialistic trend" in America to the Fabian movement of England, which over a period of 40 years effected a bloodless revolution witl the ascension to power of the Labor party and the socialization of that country. The purpose of a book review said Schmeer, is to inform the lis teners and to stimulate in them sufficient interest to read the book. His review pointed out how the English people are fast losing their freedom, which they have so long enjoyed, to the bureaucratic state, and he also pointed out what he said were the same trends in this country, which he declared, are headed for more centralization of power in the government and the lessening of the freedom of the in dividual. The term "Socialism" is disguis ed with such terms as "planned economy," the book points out. The meeting was guest night, and a number of visitors were presert Veterans' Aid Told Fuller Johnson, a guest, and a member of the volunteer workers of the Veterans hospital, spoke briefly, describing the volunteer workers' program, and urging that as many members of the club as possible give some time to the cause. He told of the several things that individuals can do to make the lift of the patient more comfortable and enjoyable. He told also of a visit to Camp White, where sev eral local patients had been trans- lerrea ana ne described the joy i mese leuows expressed upon seeing someone from here who remem bered them well enough io pay them a special visit. Johnson further listed some of the coming hospital activities, which will include Softball games, and a planned Easter Sunrise serv ice, in which all of the people of the town can participate. President Dr. J. E. Campbell delegated the health and welfare committee, chairmaned by Claude Baker, to work up Lions club psi ticipation in the program. The U. S.
