Human Needs y . .
THE general public has the feeling that the needs of indi
viduals and families are now being adequately met in
all cases of destitution. There are WPA and the state
county relief offices and old age pensions. Surely, one would
think, every needy person is being cared for. j
But the situation is by no means as ro3y as such a placid
belief would indicate. There are hundreds of people who have
kept off relief, but whose resources are now pretty well ex
hausted. We must realize that the cold, wet spring has de
layed all farm work and slowed down construction. Persons
depending on farm labor, on work in' the hop and berry
fields may be in desperate need because the rains keep them
from jobs. Last month all families with an able-bodied male
member were thrown of f relief. How have they gotten along
with few jobs opening up ? j
Higher rents and higher food costs make the monthly
stipends, sufficient a few years ago, inadequate today. How
can families sustain themselves on $26 a month in the city,
paying ten to twelve dollars a month for rent, with only fif
teen left for food, water, light, fuel? J , I r
The taxpayer public is apt to grow callous, and when it
reads of a sitdown in a WPA office to say, "let them starve."
Or "let them get out and get a job." Yes, we might do that;
but we are not going to do that. How can these people get
jobs in weather like the present? And who is there to say, and
to mean" it, that we will deliberately permit folk to starve?
The general economic situation is improving; but there
are many families where their individual situation is not im
proving where higher costs make their position worse. The
public needs to understand some of these facts ; and then
make a more intelligent approach to the problem than to
shrug the shoulders and say, "let 'em starve." j
? Ultra-Red Catalonia !
. 5
!
IN Catalonia political coloration is most pronounced. There
the communists are ".rightists" supporting the Madrid
Valencia government which itself is liberal-socialist. The
leftists are ultra-red; they are the anarcho-syndicalists and
the Trotskyistsr So writes Leland Stowe, in correspondence
to the New York Herald-Tribune. While the elements are now
more or less in agreement in fighting General Franco and the
fascists, they are not in accord over what should come after
Francos defeat..
Probably the majority of
liberal republic; at least that
tion a year ago. The conservatives do not, and they are carry
ing on the rebellion. The anarchists and syndicalists in Cat
alonia do not; and will remain a dissenting group if the
government under Leon Cabellero wins. Because Catalonia is
the most important industrial
pplit in opinion is noteworthy. Stowe says : j
: lThe battle behind the Catalan front most seem a paradox
to the uninitiated. But in reality it is a struggle on the part ot
; the so-called and misnamed "Red" loyalist government to sup
press definitely in Catalonia the real Reds, who want a Trotzkyist
. society or something further left than that."
; The Madrid-Valencia government will probably be able
to keep the Catalan anarchists under control. The other parts
of Spain are far more conservative. There is no outside pow
er which would help these ultra-reds, because he Stalin pol
icy is now one of the "united front," and the feud of the Sta
lin communists and the Trotzky breed is extremely bitter.
The situation shows that the socialist-republicans who now
form the legitimate government in Spain are under pressure
from both extremes.
Governor to Washington !
IN his term Governor Meier made a trip to Washington to
urge power development on the Columbia river. Now Gov
ernor Martin is leaving for Washington to urge industrial
development at Bonneville. The governor wants the adminis
tration and rate structure at Bonneville fixed so low rates
will be provided for big blocks of power close to the dam
site. He opposes blanket rates for the whole area, which
would mean higher rates than otherwise in the territory im
mediately adjacent to the dam. He opposes L6s Angeles and
Puget Sound interference with Bonneville. He opposes pool
ing Bonneville with Coulee dam or putting it under a Co
lumbia valley authority (CVA). So the governor, his fight
ing spurs on, is off to Washington. j
The state will await with interest the outcome of the en
gagement which the "Oregon expeditionary force" will now
participate in. At Washington Gov. Martin and the Portland
ers who accompany him will run head-on into the Messrs.
Cohen and Corcoran, the hot dog boys in the president's ad
visory council; into J. D. Ross, who, on leave from Seattle
City Light, is reported working on the Bonneville set-up rand
probably into the Los Angeles -m. o. officials who want no
" rate preferential at Bonneville. The governor will have con
siderable help from the Oregon delegation, but is apt to run
into opposition from the Washington side of the river.
It is not exactly a General Sheridan ride the governor is
making; but the emergency does exist because the framing of
Bonneville legislation is now in committee. With the spirited
Oregon governor on one side and the canine pepper boys on

IN his report to stockholders, the president of the Curtis
Publishing company said the directors were considering
moving the plant from Philadelphia on account of the high
taxes levied there. He said the Pennsylvania state taxes to
stockholders tot 1936 were $716,000, but in 1934 only $6,000.
The total of state and federal taxes levied on the company
for 1936 amounted to practically $2,000,000. Had the com
pany been located in New Jersey, across the river, the stock
holders tax would have been $8,000; in Delaware $7,000 in
stead of Pennsylvania's $716,000. Such a discrepancy would
give the directors something to think about !
Those planning investment in business enterprises now
mi st consider the burden of taxation as well as the ordinary
business factors of raw materials, markets, transportation,
labor. Oregon for instance, has a high property tax and a high
income tax; but no sales tax. Washington has a sales tax,
no income tax, and a low (maximum 40 mills) real estate
tax. Nevada has no sales tax, no income tax, no inheritance
tax, small real estate ,tax. . v f f ' : '
.Competition will have the effect of equalizing taxation
as among the several states. Otherwise business will be at
tracted to the state with low taxrates. Pennsylvania will be
reluctant to lose a business as large as the Curtis Publish
ing company. We cannot say whether $6,000 or $716,000 is
- the proper tax on the company; but surely. there is inequity
to have the latter tax on one side -of the river and only an
$8,000 charge on the other side. No wonder the directors are
gravely concerned. ; j
The Willamette Is just staging its annual spring opening. Except

Pioneer fiber flax 4-18-37
industry that brought i
first general attention
to our franchise advantages:
A good many hundreds of col
umns and even pages , ot matter
hare appeared In this newspaper
in the past 40 years and more on
the Importance of establishing a
great fiber flax and hemp Indus
try in the Willamette Talley. ;
' This has been accentuated by
the fact that these are among the
most important of oar many fran
chise products and industries
that is, crops and lines of manu
facture which nature has rendered
especially certain of success here,
with the application of man's in
ventive genius and teehnalogleal
skill. '
S "Is
The God of nature drew the
plans here for the flax and hemp
kingdom of the world, and pro
Tided all the materials therefor,
with a five to seven year rotation
scheme Indicated.
Every requisite of soil and cli
mate was prepared therefor, with
out the omission of the slightest
detail.
:
The last long series of flax ar
ticles In this column was in the
September 15-20, 1936, issues,
following another of the same
month that was in the papers of
the 2nd to the 10th inclusive.
In the first above named series
was a clipping from the Salem
Capital Journal ot May 30, 1925,
which read:
'Chester H. Miller, grandson of
Charles Miller, who grew the first
flax to be grown in Oregon and
won first prize at the internation
al exposition held In Philadelphia
in 1S76, was in Salem yesterday
with the actual specimen which
his grandfather sent east to the
exposition and the medal and cer
tificate which were awarded at
that time. Chester Miller is pres
ent owner of the farm which his
grandfather owned at the time the
flax was grown. The lint Is des
crfoed in the certificate as being
'of extraordinary length, superior
floss and silky softness.' The cer
tiflcate Is signed by the 10 men
who acted as judges. The bronze
medal measures some feur inch
es in 'diameter and haa a replica
of the Goddess of Liberty on one
side and on the other side the
words, 'Awarded by United States
Centennial Commissi on.' sur
rounded by a wreath and the
words 'International Exposition,
Philadelphia. MDCCLXXW along
the edge. 'Flax was grown on his
grandfather's farm near Jefferson
during only two years. 1875 and
1876,' Mr. Miller states. 'I've
heard my grandfather tell about
it, he eaid yesterday. . One hun
dred bushels of flax seed were
brought from Ireland at a total
cost or siuuu. unmamen were
used to pull the flax when grown,
between 50 and 75 being used on
the place. Machinery - for the
scutching mill was brought from
New York. A steam engine was
shipped all the way from Ohio to
run the machinery. Miller est!
mates that the total cost of equip
ment must have been more than
35000. Flax growing might have
become a permanent Industry In
the Willamette valley at that time
if there had been a market for the
product. -Efforts to establish
twine spinning mill at Albany
were unsuccessful, and transpor
tation to more distant points was
made Impossible by the heavy
freight charges. There was no dl
rect route to the east by rail at
mat time, all freight going by way
of San Francisco. 'But I guess the
land will raise just as good flax
as it ever did,' said Miller, com
meriting on the recent develop
ment of the linen Industry in the
wuiamette valley."
S m S .
That was not the first fiber flax
to be grown in the Willamette val-
ley; several small patches had
been grown in various parts of
the valley, running back to 1844.
and in the Aurora colony. In the
'50's to the '80s, It was grown,
retted, scutched, spun and woven
into household articles, some of
which are yet in use for flax will
almost fast "forever," If kept In
dry places, and will wear almost
proportionately long.
But that was the first consider
able field of fiber flax grown In
this valley or in Oregon.
In the series last above named,
the writer promised a further re
port on the MUler experiment, and
in a trip to Jefferson on Sunday,
April 4, made a small start In re
deeming this promise, which will
be extended from time to time.
Miss Louise Miller (familiarly
Lou) and Mrs. Lydia Hoyt. sis
ters, living together in Jefferson,
remember many things about the
flax growing and processing ex
perlment of their father, Charles
MUler. t
They recall that he had a part
ner, Jesse Parrish. a nephew of
Rev. E. E. Parrish of Parrish Gap,
who was both a minister and
physician, and who came with his
family in the 1844 covered wagon
immigration from Ohio.
As will appear ' presently.
Charles MiUer was also of early
pioneer stock, his father having
come tn the big covered wagon
immigration. of 1847, and he him
self in 1849 with the California
gold rush, and to Oregon the next
year.
W "a i
How did these early pioneer
neighbors get the idea ot growing
and processing fiber flax in Ore
gon, on a commercial scale?
Miss Miller and Mrs. Hoyt think
that probably the idea came from
two men from New - York, who
they believe, had before worked
with flax. They say the names of
the two men were. Edward Akin
and Calvin Crandell.

Wherever men love reason, hate
obscurantism, shun darkness, turn
toward light, know gratitude,
praise virtue, despise meanness,
kindle to sheer beauty; wherever
minds are sensitive, hearts gen
erous and spirits free there is
your home. In welcoming you, a
country but honors itself.
If yon should never see again
the German landscape you have
loved so well that landscape,
natural, springlike, almost dewy,
yet so formal, so humane. It will
live behind your eyeballs, and be
cause ot you, exist for us. Exiled
from that landscape none can ex
ile you from the culture which
moulded Its fields, Its shaped
woodlands, its lively, gracious cit
ies. Its dreamy towns. For you
are of that culture. Inalienably,
and carry It with you wherever
you go, moving in a German air,
limpid with light, vibrant with
music, an air which all of Europe
once could breathe. -
The very ghosts who walk with
you are more robust than the liv

Wagner and Nietzsche, and the
colossal Goethe all Germans, but
all Europeans, men ot the West,
carriers of the -"Torch
that flames from Mara

beauty binding three ages
Into one time; the waves of dv

eclipsed but never quenched
it."
All sharers, like yourself, la the
great Western passion: the love
ot freedom.
Let them cast you out ot Ger

clearly than you the coming
blight. When Germany was
strongest, most powerful, before
the war when Europe trembled,
you spotted the canker, scented
decay, wrote "Buddenbrooks"
seeing the decline of the bour
geois world. In 1927, at the height
of the feverish after-war prosper
ity, you laid the conflicts in tie
European mind in a mountain
top sanatorium, and showed us all
the iUness of Europe, in "The Ma
gic Mountain." Out ot what have
you been cast, Thomas Mann?
Out of the German language? All
its words are In your mouth, un
der your hands, emerging in forms
and colors and sounds to make as
love a tongue defiled by others.
They cannot cast you out of lit

Matheny Favored
As Ferry's Name
The name. "Daniel Matheny of

Marion county court yesterday by
County Judge W. O. Powell of
Yamhill for the new free ferry at
the Wheatland crossing to honor
the first ferry boat operator
there. Daniel Matheny establish
ed ferry service on the present
route In 1844 and Wheatland,
where he also ran a general store,
gained its name because it was
the shipping point for wheat from
Marlon and Polk counties and
lands to the south. Judge Powell
recalled.
Judge Powell said his court was
planning to build up the road ap
proaching the Wheatland ferry
from the Yamhill county side so
the ferry could be operated dur
ing high water. With the Wil
lamette river up yesterday, the
Yamhill approach was aader wa
ter for a third ot a mile.
