Thm OSEGON STATESMAN. Salem. Oregon. Tnuraday Morning. February 23. 1311 PAC2 FOUH 4 i "No Faror Strays Us; No Fear Shall A tee" From First Statesman, March 28, 1851 THE STATESMAN PUBLISHING CO. CHARLES A. SPRAGUE, President Member of The Associated Press The Associated Press is exclusively entitled to the use for publication of all news dispatches credited to it or not otherwise credited in this newspaper. Copyright "Locked out" by the radio chains and under attack from the federal department of justice, music composers who are members of ASCAP already are "facing the music" and a further blitzkrieg in the Oregon legislature such as is proposed in Sen. Coe McKenna's bill which would make it illegal for any considerable num ber of composers or puSlishers to band together for the purpose of collecting royalties, seems out of place and ill-timed. The steps which the United States attorney general is (taking may logically be "expected to cure any evils which may exist in the copy right protection system, while the ASCAP-BMI struggle promises or threatens, depending upon the point of view, to kill or cure that system. In other words, the entire copyright question as it relates to music is in a volatile state and this is a poor time for a state legislature to meddle especially a legislature which is just about to start serving without pay and trying desperately to wind up its busines as prompt ly as possible. There, is a certain educational value however jln the issue which Sen. McKenna has belatedly Sought to inject into the session. The justice department, theatre proprietors, dance hall managers, jute box entrepreneurs and even the radio tycoons all concede that the laborer is worthy of his hire, even though he be a Tin Pan Alley laborer. Copyright, they declare, must be protected. They object only, in typical "yes, but" fashionjto the method. -It will be interesting therefore, 4f the Mc Kenna bill reaches the hearing stage, to hear Just what substitute method these "yes, but" people have in mind. ASCAP undeniably has its' faults It may be demanding unreasonable royalties, and not enough of the proceeds may ' reach 4he composer. But what is the accept able substitute? From the tenor of the McKen na measure, one gets the impression that each song writer is expected to go dashing about the country bargaining for a few cents royalty here and there, checking up and prosecuting anyone who has played his music for profit without paying royalty. Even if this were possible, it would be as costly and inconvenient to the music producers. If that isn't the idea, what better one do the opponents of ASCAP have in mind? If they have none, then one must conclude that their real purpose is to rob the composer of his just compensation. Obviously all this is a national problem with which the Oregon legislature cannot cope; but its consideration here may shed some light on the fundamental issue and on the motives of the contending parties. Encirclement No one can deny, as the Tokyo papers said, that Japan is hemmed in, encircled, stifled by the threatening " states of Britain, America, Australia and Holland as represented by her Eastern Indian possessions. , Similarly, no one can deny that the United States is hemmed in, encircled and stifled by Canada, Mexico, Japan and Russia. All have somewhat different national interests from our selves, are motived fay a somewhat different mode of thinking, and would undeniably like to have the resources which we as Americans, possess. If Japan is encircled, so are we. i As a matter of fact, the United States feels bound, as Japan, in the words of her foreign minister, does, to establish "a mutual prosper ity sphere," and that this policy is a national conviction. America would be inclined to fall short of the Japanese promise to make such a sphere "firmly at any cost," but nonetheless would like to see it created. Encirclement, and the will to build new do minions for "mutual prosperity" are hardly new battle cries, either for America or for Japan, however, and it is to be doubted that such decrepit arguments, created out of such fustian and cast loose on the winds of the world in the haranguing of Japanese newspaper scribes can have very much effect on the future of East Asia, the United States or the world. The intention of producing them, of course, .is to make-them the heralds of fear among those who would deny Japan her conquests; and for all their ludicrous wisdom they will have effect if, they tighten for a moment the , nerves of the waiting people in the Indies, Australia ! and what was once French Indo China. Words such as these are the white missiles of conflict which is still held in abey ance until a riper hour. . All one can add by way of postscript is that nobody's taken in, and that if Japan still wants to go south for fame and fortune, the risks are exactly the same as they were day before yes terday before the original little . Nipponese found they were encircled. In some ways even that's better than being conquered. Bridges ' The Oregon state highway commission is hereby granted and vested with authority, and ' ' power in the name of the state of Oregon to make and enter into agreement or agreements with the government of the United States or any of its agencies, with the state of Washing ton, any county, municipality, port or other ' political subdivision of the state of Oregon, ' with any person, persons, individuals, associa- tions, corporations, domestic or foreign, for the T purpose of carrying out or putting into effect . the right, power and authority granted by the provisions of this act or by any other lw Sec 2, HB 204, Oregon legislature. That phrase anyi other law," remindful somehow of HR.1776 in congress the lend lease bill occurs in. several places in the bill before the Oregon legislature designed td em power the highway commission to build or buy bridges across .the Columbia river. The au thority granted in the section quoted above, would appear ample, to say the least. . The list of introducers of HB 204 Is headed by Rep. Heisler of The Dalles and Rep. Lage of Hood River, eider's constitutents, one might deduce are interested in a new bridge across the Columbia somewhere in the vicinity of The Dalles or between there and the Deschutes river mouth. Some of Rep. Lage'a constituents might on the other hand, be interested in persuading the state to take over the two privately-financed toll bridges; the Bridge of the Gods and the one at Hood River. Now it may be that the distressed entrepen eurs of these bridges and the Rainier-Longview span are entitled to relief. But a more urgent circumstance is that from Hood River eastward and then northward, there is no bridge across the Columbia between Oregon and Washington; there is no bridge until one crosses into Wash ington and reaches Pasco. This is a case of 'un warranted retardation of transportation facili ties. It is true that the bill in the legislature would empower the highway commission either to build new bridges or to buy old bridges, and heaven knows what else. But in view of the greater urgency of new bridges, it might have been better to grant that authority if it is lacking now than to open the gate as widely as this bill proposes. il'iVmijfc'! roi miuob Surveyor In the hurly-burly of the legislative session, it is sometimes difficult to give proper due to right decisions made in other, more local branches of government. The legislature, however, should not steal public attention and approval from the im portant decision of the Marion county court, and particularly of County Judge Hewlett, to de mand that the county surveyor submit his fi nancial records and those of his deputies to the county treasurer, and in other respects conform to statute instead of to his own caprice. The surveyor, as state auditors . have previ ously pointed out, has made a habit of running his of f ice as a realm apart from the rest of the county administration, a custom which is neith er pleasing nor favorable to the public which provide that official with his job. It' is entirely in the county's best interests that greater re sponsibility should be exacted of the surveyor in coordinating the fiscal affairs of his depart ment with those of the remainder of the county offices. News Behind The News By PAUL MALLON , WASHINGTON, Feb. 19 The congressmen, who ; like business men around the country think ' the British aid plan behind this lend-lease bill is a matter of one, three or five billion dollars at the most, are going to get the shock of their lives when the lid is taken off the arrange ments now being made. The first phase of the program is apt to reach the fabulous fig ures of $10,000,000,000 to $12, 000,000,000. Only three men know the details, Mr. Roosevelt, Mr. Knudsen, and Mr. Morgenthau. They are not saying anything until after the legislation is enacted. But the' $10,000,000,000 to $12,000,000,000 I figures are those commonly a s e d as a rounded total for the minimum goal! in defense commission conferences. It explains ominously the silent opposition of the administration to repub lican proposals for $2,000,000,000 or $3,000,000,000 limitations. j i First public peep indicating extent to which the defense directors haxe expanded their vision lies in the statements of E. R. Stettinius, jr., head of the priorities division. He announced last October 11 there would be plenty of aluminum to meet the demands of the defense program. He double vowed the statement on November 28, saying the production of aluminum during the next two years "appears adequate to take care of military requirements as now estimated and present civil ian requirements with a sufficient surplus to per mit some increase in civilian requirements.' Then he got sore about it on December 29. He said:" "It is unfortunate that public anxiety over our national defense program should be based on shortages (aluminum) which do not exist. Creation of such anxiety, which has no basis in fact, serves no patriotic purpose." . . But here on February 12 he publicly urged users of; aluminum "to give immediate attention to the' use of substitutes including plastics, because of the impact of the defense program which may make ; it impossible for them to furnish the gen eral public with , the usual supply of aluminum implements." The appeal was reiterated February '14, and on "the 17th Mrs. Roosevelt publicly' foresaw a curb rra aluminum pans, among other things. Mr. Stettinius will no doubt be subjected to a certain amount of ragging over the way he has been caught redhanded, but the simple truth Is neither he nor anyone else here knew in Decem ber the extent of the obligations which British aid is going to impose on us. Turns of the war in the Balkans and far east have mainly caused the British to double or treble their production plans. They now see the neces sity of equipping armies all . around the world with planes, tanks and munitions. Their spy data claims , German production is today running at ' the rate or $12,000,000,000 a year, an unbelievable figure, and they intend to meet it if they can with our backing. .- " Mr. Roosevelt is likely to send to congress an . Immediate request for an appropriation as soon as the bill is passed. First large order is supposed to cover about $2,000,000,000 for planes. ; w . In view of these factors administration defense : planners are becoming increasingly impatient with business men who are resisting plant expansions er accumulation of raw materials on the ground , these are unnecessary. Shortages, of' aluminum, magnesium, and zinc are at hand,. as Mr. Stet-. tinius has said. Next will come nickel and brass, ' two lines in which the pinch is just beginning to be noticeable. Our stock! of copper, tin and rub-1 : ber will only prove sufficient if Imports are kept apace of the program. Meanwhile the ultimate of planned plant ex- 'pansions , wQ undoubtedly hava to be carried " through. At least the administration will start a drive to force them through. 'L. . " m via? " " ,tJ. JW'-JJ A W l' ' ' , - ih ' iiii m: -m, Just so It's not Plunged to the Hilt in the World Bifts ifor . ISrealkfast By R. J. HENDRICKS (Concluding Jason Lee is entitled 2-20-41 to be called the father of American government in the Oregon Country; before 41: S W (Concluding from yesterday:) Lee told Cushing: "The greater portion of those attached to the Methodist mission are farmers, mechanics, teachers, and physi cians. The exclusive object of the mission is the benefit of the Indian tribes west of the Rocky mountains. But to acocmplish this object, it is found necessary to cultivate the soil, erect dwel ling houses and school houses, build mills, and in fact introduce all the necessaries and helps of a civilized colony; and this more especially, as one of' the princi pal means relied upon for the improvement of the natives is the establishment of extensive manual labor schools for Indian children and youth. "It is believed that, if the Government of the United States takes such measures, in respect to this territory, as will; secure the rights of the settlers, most of those who are now attached to the 1 mission will remain as permanent settlers in the coun try, after the mission may no Your Federal Income Tax BAD DEBTS YEAR IN WHICH DEDUCTIBLE To be allowed as a deduction from gross income, a bad debt must have been determined by the taxpayer to be worthless within the taxable year for which it is claimed and, where books are kept, it also must have been charged off within the same year. The necessity for this provision is obvious. If a debt could be de ducted without the requirement that it be charged off the taxpay ers' books, the certainty of its worthlessness would be open to question. Neither the taxpayer, nor the government could be cer tain that a debt would not be claimed more than once. - If a bad debt were allowed as a deduction without regard to the year when it becomes worthless, such charges could be accumu lated to be deducted in a year when there was a large income. The burden is upon the tax payer to show that a debt claimed as a deduction was without value during the taxable year. A state ment should be attached to the return showing the propriety of any deduction for bad debts. If in the exercise of sound business judgment a taxpayer concludes, after making every . . reasonable effort to determine whether there is likelihood of recovery, that the debt is of no value, de duction for such debt is allow able. Court action as proof that the debt Is worthless is not es sential. . : It is optional with the taxpay er, in a year prior to that in which a debt becomes wholly worthless, to take a deduction for partial loss if partial worthlesW ness occurs. - , .;. ' The provisions of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to bad-debt and partial : bad-debt deductions are not applicable to a taxpayer, other than a bank! aa defined ; by the act, where ' the debt is evidenced by, bonds, de bentures, notes, or certificates, or other evidences of indebtedness, issued by - any corporation (in cluding those issued by a gov ernment or political subdivision thereof) with interest coupons or ia registered form. . longer need their services. Hence it may be safely assumed that ours, in connection with the oth er settlers already there, is the commencement of a permanent settlement of the country. In view of this, it will be readily seen that we need two things at the hands of the Government, for our protection and prosperity. "First. We need a guarantee from the Government that the possession of the land we take up, and the improvements we make upon it, will be secured to us. These settlements will greatly increase the value of the G o v e r n m ent domain in that country, should the Indian title ever be extinguished. And we cannot but expect, therefore, that those who have been pio neers in this arduous work will be liberally dealt with in this matter. "Secondly. We need the au thoritory end protection of the Government and laws of the United States, to regulate the intercourse of the settlers with each other, to protect them against the peculations and ag gressions of the Indians, and to protect the Indians against the aggressions of the white sett lers. V "To secure these objects, it is not supposed that much of a MILITARY force will be neces sary. If a suitable person should be sent out as a civil magistrate and governor of the territory, the settlers would sustain his authority. "In proof of this, it is only necessary to say that almost all the settlers of the Willamette valley have signed a memorial to Congress, praying that body to extend the United States Government over the territory. "It Is especially desirable that the introduction of ardent spirits into the country should be pre vented. These, as all know, are ruinous to the white man and the Indian. The temperance movement in the settlement you are already apprized of. NOW, the settlers do not desire the importation or manufacture of spirits; and if the mercenary and evil minded are prevented from introducing them, the natives and the immigrants will be saved from this desolating scourge. "You are aware, air, that there is no law in that country to PROTECT or CONTROL Ameri , can citizens. And to whom M1 we look, to whom CAN we look for the establishment of whole some laws to regulate our infant but rising settlements, but to , the Congress of our own be loved country. "The country" will be settled, and that speedily, from some quarter; and it depends very, much upon the speedy action , of Congress what that popula tion shall be, and what shall be the fate of the Indiaan tribes in that territory. It may be thought that Oregon la of little - importance; but, rely upon it, there is the germ of a great state. -- "We are resolved to do what i we can to benefit the country; - but, we are constrained to throw ourselves upon you for protec tion. I am. air, with great re- ' spect, yours truly, JASON LEE." Says the Brosnan book furth er on this subject: "In order r to round out this story of Ore- - gon's determination to become a ' part of the United States, a ; brief account tell of the Ore gon memorial ' to Congress, the David Leslie petition of 1939. "During the autumn of 1939, while Lee was concluding his . . . missionary tours (when he showed himself the greatest missionary collector of money for American missions up to his day), David Leslie, acting in Lee's place in Oregon, placed in the hands of Thomas J. Farn ham Oregon's second memorial (to Congress.) "W "In this document loyal 'Amer icans pleaded for termination of British and Hudson's Bay com , pany's control over Oregon and lauded the economic possibilities and general attractions of the land of their adoption." Farnham carried this document to Wash ington. It was presented to the United States by that stalwart friend of Oregon, U. S. Senator Lewis F. Linn." Of Caleb Cushing's Congres sional Report, containing Lee's pleas, 10,000 copies were printed. It was one of the great influ ences in getting the gigantic covered wagon immigration to the Oregoon Country under way. S Back at work in Oregon, pushing- his missionary labors, the reader of this column knows Lee called the first meeting look ing to the actual founding of the provisional government the meeting of Feb. 7, 1841, at the "old" mission, 10 miles by water below the site of Salem The reader knows that, eight days later, Feb. 15, 1841, Ewing Young died, leaving the largest private property holdings by an Americaan in Oregon; that Lee preached Young's funeral ser mon on Feb. 17, and, at its close, asked the audience to tar ry and consider the organization of a provisional government, so that the estate might be ad ministered. This was done, and an ad journment was taken until the " next morning, at the Lee mis sion, when the Oregon provis ional government was author ized, ad set in motion the gov ernment that was succeeded and taken over by the- territorial government; that was succeeded and taken over by the state gov ernment Thus, the birthday of the founding of American govern ment in Oregon is February 18; the centenary was on Tuesday of this week, and Jason Lee " foresaw and was responsible for the founding of it 1 Tcuday's Garden By ULLTJg L.

His name, however, was not appleseed but Jonathan Chapman. He received the "Appleseed" name because he sowed apple seeds in the wilds of Ohio and Indiana be tween 1801 and 1847. He lived to see many of his trees bear fruit over a territory of 100.000 miles. In some books he is listed as John Chapman, but he is more widely .listed as Johnny Appleseed. , f Wants to know if she may replant her rose garden now.

V When he hadl dined, Kloffer went tol the revolving doors leading jonto the street and looked out. It was a fine night. "I thinks I will go for a walk," he said to the hall porter.

Listening for a few moments, to be sure nobody had followed; him downstairs, he gently opened a window.', He climbed out of this, standing on a wash stand to do so. It was not a very i dignified exit but the Gestapo had a long arm and Its agents operated hot in Germany alone.
