MONDAY, AUGUST 19, 1963 Pride In Our County's Resources One of the very interesting features of the Douglas County Fair and Exposition is ;ip be found in the displays coming from the various parts of the county. All too often fairgoers fail to give suf ficient attention to the educational fea tures of these respective exhibits. The booths usually provide a very brilliant display of the products of each of the respective communities. ;If a person should start a list of the many agricultural and industrial products of each community, that list, it is; certain, would indeed astonish the v-riter by the diversity to be found. ;While it was not winner of first place among the community displays, the snowing from the Lower Umpqua coun tjt affords a good example of the many resources of which any community may vyll be proud. ;One of the outstanding activities in the Lower Umpqua is the fishery to be found at Salmon Harbor-Winchester Bay. ThTs sports fishery, which produces a great deal of revenue for the commu nity, was demonstrated by a salmon fro zen in a cake of ice. Along the same line, showing a com paratively new source of recreation, was a; beach buggy. ; Other recreational assets were to be seen in the lavish display of photographs. .'However, recreation was not the sole sObject of the Western Douglas County bpoth. , Other exhibits stressed the Internation al .Paper Company's pulp and paper plant now building at Gardiner. U.S. PJywood Company's Reedsport plant furnished a showing of plywood, drawing attention to the forest resource of the area. ' ' ' 1 A good many people were surprised to find that cheese is made in Reedsport. They sampled some of the product of the Reedsport plant and had good reason to understand why this cheese has captured so many prizes up and down the coast and is in great demand by food stores, . particularly in Southern California. For a long time a concern in the southern part of California had a. virtual exclusive on the cheese from the Reedsport factory. Another unusual display was furnished by the Umpqua River and Navigation Company which placed on exhibit a sam ple of gravel taken from the Umpqua River. We are inclined to think of silver, gold, and other precious metals as making up our mining industry. The fact of the mat ter is, however, that Oregon's income from mining comes not from the precious metals but, instead, from gravel rock, shale, and the more common minerals. And one of the leading "mining" opera tions is carried on in the Umpqua River in western Douglas County. This mention of the booth from West ern Douglas County isn't made to detract, from oth,er community booths. Many factors other than diversity of project had a part in judging the winners and the placement of the various displays. But the booth gave a good example of the resources of Douglas County which were most effectively . demonstrated in the various community displays. Togeth er they add up to something that should fill us with pride. News Analysis P. J.' Left Mark On Venezuelans By PHIL NEWSOM Whatever tho rascalities of one time Venezuelan dictator Marcos Pereif, Jimenez, the plump and pompous former army colonel left his mark upon Caracas and upon its people. It "las been nearly five years sinbe he gathered his family about him and fled to the Dom inican Republic in the face of the Sams' sort of violent revolution by whlcu" he himself had risen to power. But i re to be a monument to Perez Jim enez today is called "January 23rd," commemorating the date of his fall. "P.J." left Venezuela $400 mil Ion in debt despite its oil riches which pour $3 million a day into a country whose population is only aoout six minion, And beyond the monuments of slone and steel which Perez Jim encz left behind, few of these six million had benefittc But besides the hatred which But in Caracas the people still ' he also left behind, one may also iff i. to him familiarly as "P.J."

Stanton ' Kennedy Trying To Emulate Franklin Roosevelt In Pact 1 Is the United States being backed into another propaganda j "corner?" Is the pending nuclear test ban simply another bit of Russian cold war strategy to make the United States look bad in the eyes of the world. Since the Second World War Communist Russia has been prating of "peace." Russia, the world is told wants only peace and friendship. Yet it goes on enslaving people by force of arms, making them prisoners behind walls, shoot ing those who would escape to freedom, killing those who promote rebellion. Yet it clothes itseit m sneepsmns On the other nana, me u n 1 1 e a States is held before the world as a "warmonger." We want war, Russian propagandists proclaim, while the Soviet wants only peace.

For some reason I find it hard We set up a "lend-lease" pro gram that proved to be a "give away," for Russia recognized neith er the lend nor the lease. When Russia flopped as a military ally and was in danger of being sound ly smashed by Hitler, Roosevelt insisted upon opening another front to take the heat off Russia, win- to understand why, as I have said slun ""Jecieu uui was (before, the United States should overruled. he so all fired anxious to conclude I Russia was permitted to accept a pact with a country that time the surrender both in Europe and and again has shown a total dis- Asia irom wnicn territory sne regard for its pledged word.
