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.

In 1920 Americans began working for themselves on
February 26. Up to that time they had been working for the
government in order to be able to pay their taxes. 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.

... 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
