PAGE SIX BROOKINGS HARBOR PILOT, BROOKINGS, OREGON The World’s Best Climate Harris Elkworth Scorns Sec. of State's Attitude Toward "Nationalist China" Heard over Mutual Broadcast ing Co. network late last week, and mentioned in his column in another column of this paper, Harris Ellsworth, congressman from the Fourth District of Ore gon, spoke his mind from the floor of the house of representa tives. The talk: “In the eventual ba’ancing of accounts, the fall of China may prove to be more decesive than the atomic bomb,” began Rep Harris Ellsworth from the floor o! the house of representatives, branding Secretary of State Ach- cson’s recent white paper on China “an effort to excuse the inexcusable.” As « member of congress from the state of Oregon. Mr. Ells worth explained that China’s fall to the communists is of deep concern particularly to the west coast which still remembers t hat it was the only part of the con- tinental United States to bo un der actual enemy gunfire during World War 2. Thus, said th«? congressman, Americans living on the Pacific coast are intensely concerned with the results of any policy in (he Pacific and Far East for “if there is to be any fateful blunder on the part of our state department in the Pa cific area, it is we on the west coast who will feel the first brunt ommended for these scattered plants. Results at the gorse experi ment station near Port Orford prove that sheep and goats kill gorse seedlings and prevent re seeding. Older plants are killed by goats. Young gorse plants al so make good pasture. Sheep car ried on this pasture should be a profitable enterprise for someone in the community according to R. M. Knox, county agent, who also attended the meeting. Anyone interested in taking the 1 roperty over a -five-year period should write R. M. Knox, Gold Beach, Ore.

REDWOODS HARDWARE Almost in one breath, says Mr. Ellsworth, the United States was giving Manchuria to the Russians and urging a blending of the Nationalists and Communists in China, yet we were, and are, doing everything in our power to check the spread of communism in Europe. The mystery of this two-headed policy, a monster of the Truman administration, the congressman feels, is not explain ed by the white paper. Mr. Ells worth believes that among the prominent officials in the state department were many individ uals who would bear investiga tion: “There can be little doubt that this coteries of communist sympathizing, eager beavers had a very large hand in the active formation of our official attitude toward Russia and toward China.” Instead of finding the China white paper a fiank and full dis- cussion of the Chinese situation, Mr. Ellsworth told members of the house of representatives that he was shocked to discover it was! only an attempt to white-wash tlw “long list of terrible failures and blunders by which we have । An intelligent plan for the fu been presented with catastrophic! ture, rather than clumsy excuses failure in Asia.” for the past and meaningless Not only does the white paper rhetoric, is the desire of the Am fail to explain the past mysteries I erican people, said Rep.
