Capper Calls
Arnold Wrong
On AP Suit
WASHINGTON. Dec 21 rVP)
Senator Capper (R-Kas) declared
Sunday he thought Thurman Ar
nold, assistant attorney general,
was "wrong in classifying the As-
eociated Press as violating , the
anti-trust laws." . '-i '.-.- ' , i -,
"I don't understand how be al
lowed himself to be forced to bring
that proceeding, which' I believe
the courts will never sustain," the
' senator said in a ' discussion ' of
free enterprise prepared for broad
cast over radio station WJBW, To
i peka, Kas. Capper is publisher of
The Topeka Capital and a mem
ber of the AP.
Capper said he agreed with Ar
nold's belief in the doctrine of
production in abundance and that
be also believed "in the American
way of life, in the doctrine of
-opportunity for the individual, as
opposed to the doctrine of regi
mentation of the individual in the
Interest of social security.
, "We can have an economy of
abundance, after the war, instead
of an economy of scarcity,. Cap
per, continued. "But we cannot
have abundance if we follow the
practice of restricting production
instead of encouraging production.
"No farmers ; that ; I . know of
believe in the doctrine of scarcity.
restricted production. Neither do
many responsible farm leaders, in
agriculture or in congress, believe
in restricted production.
"But farmers producing in
abundance had to exchange their
goods for other goods and services
provided on a scarcity basis, and
for a while have been following
a similar program trying to bal
ance one wrong with a similar
wrong. I hope we' can get rid of
both wrongs in the post-war
period. '
"Right now, we may as well
admit, we have got hold of a bear
by the tan, and the best we can
do is t hold on to what we have,
and plan to take advantage of the
first opportunity to correct the
more obvious evils in our scheme
of things, "v v
"What I mean by this is that
in the revamping of our affairs
" following the war, we must try
to get rid of restrictive policies
and program in our own country
while regaining and retaining
enough national self-sufficiency
that we can stand upon our own
feet in this troubled world and
then produce the things we need
in abundance.
"We must do this if we are to
survive; probably unless we do it
America, modern civilization it
self, may not survive.

Eagle Returned
To Oregon From
600 Miles Asea
PORTLAND, Dec. 21-(-An
easle that cot off the beam and
wound mp 609 miles at sea was
returned to land Monday by an
ocean freighter.
An officer of the ship said
three eagles appeared over the
vessel far at sea 11 days ago.
Apparently looking for a re
fuge, they dived for the freight
er. Two landed on the mafmnast
bat were too weary to hang on.
They fell into the sea and
drowned.
The third landed on deck and
crew members eantared the un
resisting bird. A biologist Iden
tified it as a young golden eagle
with a six-foot wing spread.
The theory is that the birds
were blown to sea from Inland
Washington or Oregon.
The surviving bird was given
to the Portland see, where ft
demonstrated its returning vi
tality by polishing offr five
pounds of meat. r
Care Urged
To Curtail
Auto Toll
Christmas holiday traffic acci
dents r have claimed an average
of five deaths each year : during
the past five years in Oregon, ac
cording to Earl Snell, secretary
of state, who Monday urged Ore
gon - drivers and pedestrians to
drive and walk more carefully in
order to avoid this-toll this year.
Traffic congestion in restricted
areas due to Christmas ' shopping,
poor visibility due to longer hours
of darkness and inclement weather
are factorsv contributing to this
death toll.
:': This year, J with' more persons
walking than in past years, there
will be increased pedestrian haz
ards as thousands of busy shop
pers crowd the shopping areas of
the - state's cities, Snell 'pointed
out.-Both "pedestrians and drivers
are urged to keep alert In traffic
to avoid being involved in acci
dents: f Pedestrians loaded down with
packages or carrying unbrellas in
such a manner as to obstruct their
vision run serious risks in busy
traffic. 1 This practice has resulted
in several serious pedestrian acci
dents during the past years and
Snell urged shoppers and others
to avoid running this risk this
year. ,
