STEV EN SO N
Brookings, Oregon
The house is about to vote on
the president’s recommendation
for aid to Greece and Turkey.
The senate passed this^bill re
cently by an overwhelming vote.
Having had an opportunity to
examine this quesetion from all
angles, and profiting by reading
the excellent debate on the sub-j
ject in the senate, I have reach
ed the conclusion that, as the
lesser of the two evils, we should
proceed to pass the bill.
If we were to refuse to com
ply with the president’s request,
we would be serving notice on
all Europe, and especially Rus
sia, that the people of this coun
try will no longer support an ef
fort for peace and free govern
ment there that we are unwill
ing to finish the job.
So, I think we should approve
the proposal, but in granting this
aid to Greece and Turkey, we
must realize it is a decisive step,
anti we must be prepared to fol
low through to the end on this
policy. The end, we hope, will be
a genuine peace, and genuinely
free, peaceful govrnmnts in Eu
rope.

In Joint Meetings
A joint meeting of the Croft
Lily Growers Association and the
Dei Norte Lily Growers Associa
tion will be held next Monday,
May 12, at 8:00 p. m., at the
community hall. Smith River, H.
T. James, secretary, told the Pi
lot Tuesday.
According to Mr. James, this
should prove to be a most inter
esting meeting inasmuch as a re
port will be made to members of
these groups on the meeting held
at Portland last week, with a
representative of the American
Wholesale Bulb Dealers Associa
tion of New York City, on the
marketing of this year’s lily bulb
crop.
