New York Chicago Detroit I Philadelphia New Industries For Diversification A good deal of thought has been given the idea of bring ing in new industries to Western Oregon, where timber still provides 75 to 90 percent of the average payroll. Some pro gress has been made in some areas, but we still have a long way to go, if we are to keep pace with some sections of the United States, particularly the southeast, a section of the countiy which has inherited a lot of new industry because of its natural resources. Locally we haven’t scratched the surface. Perhaps we can never compete with some localities, which in the past have been in position to offer added inducement in the way of free sites and low cost sites. The least we can do is to offer encouragement to those seeking locations. From what we know of the past this has not always been done and we have lost by this attitude. We have reached a point in our development where we should decide on one or two courses, either lend all the encouragement we can to the prospective new industries or look about us for a good strong fence, so we can fence ourselves in to keep the foreigners out Progress has never been stopped in the history of our nation. Some localities have lost out in trying to stop it. It s largely a matter of public concern. Foreign Muddle In an attempt to establish a foreign policy in the last seven years, it seems to us that the administration has m’tffed the ball on several occasions. We are of the opinion that some of the costly mistakes have made isolationists out of a number of people, even though to be branded as an isola tionist is rather unpopular at the present time. Relatives of soldiers now fighting the so-called police action in Korea are becoming isolationists in the sense they believe we should either get out of Korea or win the war by bombing the Man churian bases as advocated by General MacArthur. The Korean affair isn’t regarded as police action by the soldiers fighting in Korea. It's serious business and if it’s serious business the allies ought not to be limited in their objectives. A lot of people believe that we would not be having our present difficulties if we had let the two totalitarian nations wanted at the Yalta conference, or let the reds take China. We will agree that we can't live in the past, but instead make plans for the future, if we are given any assurance that the same mistakes will not be repeated. It’s taking from 20 to 25 percent of our present income to do what we are doing, but the reds seem to be winning converts faster than we are and at far less expense and effort. It will be interesting to note what the republicans will have to offer in winning the cold war now going on. Unless a change is made Russia will have us so near bankruptcy in another ten years, she can take us without much of a struggle. thanks to more than $0 million worth of American machine tools supplied as defense support under the Mutual Security Program. Letter From Wash i ng ton World Tension Greatest Since World War II by Harris Ellsworth Representative, Fourth District This letter is written earlier in the week than usual for the reason that Mrs. Ellsworth and I have been called out to I-os Angeles because of the den death of Miss Margaret Gildea.

Just recently bankers were urged to consider establishing high school savings programs to familiarize students with the basic fundamentals of business practice. Such a program has been in operation in Atlanta for three years. Students not only buy share and make deposits (now over $50,000), but they also serve as bookkeepers, tellers and supply clerks.

By 1940 the date had been advanced to March 27. In 1951 it was even later, April 28. This year it has been pushed up to May 19. Never before have Americans had to work so long to pay their taxes. Out of each hour worked, 23 minutes pay is taken by the government in direct and hidden imposts. Michigan Exchange Study of the federal budget revealed that the national recovery administration—found unconstitutional by the Su preme Court in 1935—was listed as spending $1,337 in fiscal 1952 for “lands and structure.” The government has spent as much as $6,000 in firing one federal employee, and one agency sjient $150,000 in lay ing off 25 employees, according to Sen.

V-8 engine that powers the Chrysler New Yorker is the most remarkable feature of this remarkable car. It is cer tainly the most discussed automobile engine in many, many years. This is the engine with hemispherical combustion chambers . . . the engine that gets more power out of every drop of ga l. And non-premium gas at that! Actually, it puts you in control of more power than you’ll probably ever need use. You'll sense this . . . together with its unequaled response . . . the very first yards you drive. It runs smoother, more quietly, and with lew wear than any other engine ever built into an American automobile. ... and it makes driving (both (ruining and the short runs) more fun than you have ever known it to be! But that's not all. Along with this engine there are scores of other reasons, too, for driving a New Yorker before resolving on any new car. Like Full-time Power Steering that makes steering five and your control five linen easier than in ordinary cars. limen greater Like Power Brakes that cut needed pedal pressure by as much as two-thirds. Like Onflow shock absorbers that make even bad roads feel "newly paved" . . . big, wide- rextful chair-high seats big windows that let opening doors you ere more.
