Kour resolutions were scheduled
for action today. These included
i, e by the mayor of Medford
asking the State Highhay Com
mission to establish an office to
deal with city problems from
throughout the stale. Mayor John
Snyder told delegates Tuesday
that there is some dissatisfaction
among officiuls "with highway
decisions which result in no prog
ress of interest to their cities."
Snyder urged a smoother co
ordinating system between the
Department and cities as a way
to work out many current "trou
l.lesome problems."'.
Another resolution calls for
larger sha es of Oregin Liquor

cities. The OLCC now parcels out

"That a web of subversion was

"J. Kdgar flower's '.Masters of

both Communist sympa'.hicrs a d
Soviet agents and that I S po'i

infiltrations but also p o.npMy re

"If Franklin D. Roosevelt he
came, as war went on. Stalin's
favorite fellow traveller, it was
not necessarily because any iile
ological conversion occurred.
Galling To Forrtstal
"Vhe pro-Russian utmosphe e in
Washington was galling to
many, including the frustrate J
Secretary of Navy, James V. Kor
restal. Ilis diaries reveal that in
September, 1044, he had written
to a friend that If any American
suggests that we act in accord
witn our own interests, he is apt
to be called a . . . Fascist or Im
perialist, while if uncle Joe ' Stal
in i suggests that he needs the
Kallic provinces, half of 1'olond,
all of Bessarabia and access to the
Mediterranean, all hands in Wash
ington agree that he is a fine,
frank, candid and generally de
lightful fellow.' Such was the
frame of mind Roosevelt took to
Yalta."
The dust cover of "Roosevelt's
Road to Russia" says: "Many
people will be made angry by this
book."
That is a sound and reasonable
prediction, especially if the ques
tions raised by Crocker become
involved in next year's president
ial campaign.

Automation and increasing ef
ficimcy in production are creat

Dubach pointed out. If automa

what will workers do with the

Dubach reminded the group. This
is creating another crucial front

"Are we going to be smart
enoufih to compromise on pro

principle," Dubach asked?
As we deal with communism,
we are constantly faced with the

dulaiid. Our American way of

of population today to keep the

"This is a real issue. Is it pos

in a world like this, or are we
going to become merely cogs on

These are just a few of the
