Industrial Sites
Until the 'minerals' of the Pacific northwest
and adjacent western Canada are developed, '
! until the restraints are removed against, new
enterprises that can produce successfully in '
this region, and until research no longer can
of fer new products and new processes to use
northwest materials, no man can foresee the
limits to which this region may go in using
its enormous power resources to make a bet
ter place for men to live. Paul Raver in
foreword to -Western Oregon Industrial. Sur
veys.' ' ' ' ' i i
"Electric power at the lowest cost in the
, United States" is the key to the-reat war pro
duction program in which the Pacific north
west is now engaged, the Bonneville adminis
trator points out. Other advantages of climate,
transportation, j fuel and water supply labor
supply when the present artificial shortage
ends and considering the growing importance
of the Pacific geographic position, are listed
i h , Miration iust issued, based upon sur-
veys made over a period of years. Distributed
. In the right places, the surveys should benefit
the industrial development ambitions of western
Oregon communities.
Maps of 16 western Oregon cities, with their
environs, are included irv the publication. On
each map the situation and area of industrial
sites which are available and which the Bonne
Tille engineers considered desirable, are marked
in red ink. Filling those potential sites with
factory buildings is not quite so simple as
marking them on a map; yet in the case of some,
it will be accomplished. .' '
An interesting phase of the accompanying
text is the property tax survey. For example
sites within Salem's city limits were taxed
$29.62 per 1000, of actual volume in 1941; sites
outside the city ranged from $19 to $20; sites
within the West Salem city limits $28.82, out
side the city limits $12.89. The difference chief
ly is that on the Marion county side, the sites
outside the city limits are within the ! Salem
school district. Sites outside Woodburn and
Mt. Angel are taxed $12.10 and $12.91 respec
tively on the same basis; but the taxes on sites
within Silverton's city limits amount to $34.46
and outside the city but within the Silverton
.. school district, $20.78.
In this matter of property taxes there are
no marked differences among the various Wil
lamette valley counties; however taxes on sites (
around Tillamook are slightly, higher than the '
' average for suburban sites in the valley, and in
the Coos Bay area substantially higher. Inci
dentally, the rate inside Marshfield is only
$32.51 while in North Bend it is $42.52; that
war an argument used in the recent "City oi",.
Coos Bay" merger campaign. " '
The property tax comparison though intrigu
ing is not by itself a decisive factor; sites in
Washington state might look more inviting on
property tax basis, but industrialists must look
further to the sales tax and prevailing wage
rates. ' S .
But before these red-ink spots on maps of the
Willamette valley can be turned into production
centers, a great deal of chamber of commerce
work will be necessary, and sundry j "bugs"
ironed out; among them river transportation.
- Some of our good folk will oppose the entire
- movement. To a considerable degree it would
. come, even if all in the area oppose it. The

Postmaster Crawford Reappointed
Henry R. Crawford has given an excellent
administration as postmaster at the important
Sal ' t postoffice," and ; there will ; be ' general
satUiaction over his reappointment which has
just been made by the president He was de
sirous of retiring, but when candidates failed
to satisfy the civil service ; requirements and
obtain the necessary: political endorsement he
was prevailed upon to continue in office. Under
the existing postal regulations his tenure be
coiaes permanent until he reaches the. age- pf
reuremenx. r-;-v- .f::,; 2:-si:
Direction of affairs at the postoffice is far
more difficult than in former years. The help "
problem has been serious, and the postmaster
has had. to employ youth and women to render '
service to the public. The postoffice ; has to .
handle such matters as sale of auto stamps, sale
and cashing of war bonds, which are quite un
related to the postal business. The Salem of
fice is run smoothly-and efficiently and cour- .
teously. Mr. Crawford merits reappointment,
and he shares with a fine staff the credit for
the hih quality of service In the local postoffice.

the Germans must hold around Vinnitsa to let the
rest escape, but they seem fairly strong. ! i 1
The Russians are. pushing the! fighting; in; two-'
sectors (Poland and in - the north) much harder
than has been revealed in their communiques.
Yet the main coming battle certainly will be in
the Vinnitsa area. '! . f ;
So If peace is at hand,' it is not yet apparent on
the battlefield. Internally, German transportation
may have broken down more than is evident, but'
there is nothing apparent here in that situation,
beyond the obvious overall fact that the nazi cause
as a whole la lost, and has been for months." I
' You will have to look elsewhere for; the back
.ground of these diplomatically planted peace re
ports, and it no doubt lies on the field of diplo- .
macy. The administration has blown up great gobs -.
of resentful smoke, charging -some people in this--country
with promoting, suspicion of' Russia, but.
Russia obviously Is bent on promoting suspicion of
herself and deliberately; : f: :j l.: -j;;-
; If there are people in this country creating a
harmful propaganda suspicion of Russia, they are
of minor importance, compared with . Russia's in
tent to make herself suspicious to the world--in-eluding

Stalin went home from the world-wide bene
volence atmosphere of Teheran, signed a self -alone- -treaty
with Czechoslovakia,-: attacked the world
wide Mr. Willkie, proclaimed his own Polish poll
cy, then accused Britain of sneaking around seek
ing a separate peace, v.; ? ; v -:. j r'l'ir
To me, all mis means final unanswerable proof :
' of what I have been reporting all along In the face
of strong continuous criticism namely Russia
a realistically selfinterested foreign policy 1 and
propaganda line. We have not. s ' - : 1 "
Our policy and line in the public speeches of
our leaders is that we must love Russia, that any
one who does not love Russia Is a nazi of fascist
Our leadership has not! taught us to know Russia
for what she actually is; to understand her realis-
tically which ' is our ' Onljr real ; chance of getting
along with, her peacefully. ; ; ;r ji 1 - '
First thing we should know is she never neces
sarily means what she says. Her 'working basis Is
to do or say mystifying things toget you to guess
what she is up to, to! smoke you out, to see how
you will act, what you: will do,' Her purpose Is',

... Stalin would consider it a weakness Xand. he -might
call it a profound democratic weakness) to
reveal your purpose. To hate the Russian method
or, to criticize it will do Uttle good. To know it v
for what it is, is necessary. : ,
But our ? news readers are apt I to accept her
pressure news as truthful direct reports and thus
react revealingly, as she wants us to.
' You can .only find out what Russia is going to
do by going behind her utterances and actions into
sound, realistic considerations likely In the military
situation and diplomatic situation to see what she
can get out of a given situation. v '

might defeat us and then turn on him. If Hitler did
not defeat us, then Stalin would face war with us.
" If Stalin would trust the Germans or the situa
tionto this extent he would not be Stalin. ;
Clearly, he is getting ready for peace and the fu

A lady industrialist back east says she hasn't
paid her December installment' on tha income
tax and calls on other business to follow , her
example and put aside postwar: reserves : out
of the money claimed for taxes. That attituda
simply spells: "MY business before my coun-
The men who are giving ; their whole ' lives
to fighting are not , refusing ; their battla in
stallments while they make their postwar jsit
uation secure. They ; are . not bargaining i with
government; nor are they striking fori higher
wages. Yet this business woman j with a repu
tation for being very clever and very success
ful thinks she can get away , with refusal to
pay her income taxes to protect her i postwar
business security. '. ; ' ' -, j ; jj.i- "
This , industrialist says .that if ; she paid ' her
tax "all production . of , these important tools
would automatically cease, 150 people would
be thrown out of employment and our armed
forces would suffer." Since the tax. is based on
ly on profit after all t expenses are charged
against income it is silly to say. her business
would have to stop if she paid her tax,; unless
she has used up the money some other way.
And if everyone refused to pay income taxes
where would she get payment for the , tools
she is making? ; ' , i v
Such sounding off is damaging to the causa
of private business and injures the , cause of
the country in wartime. It is another illustra
tion of how a person can be a success in busi
ness and be foolish in other matters. Fortun
ately there are few who are so silly as to re
fuse to pay their tax. i No matter what they
may think they have a healthy respect for the
government's ability to collect. ; IM 1 ? If ;

The German lines have not been broken.; Indeed,
a fairly strong nazi counter attack was launched
at the focal point of fighting
(the Vinnitsa and Zhitomir sec

to punch through there, 1 but

- Coupled j with the coordinated:
0: Russian offensive already at" a ;
. point: west of Novosokolniki on,
the Lovat front, 200 miles south
ward, the new Russian attack In
the north r is obviously rocking
the whole i German Baltic flank.
It could ' (force ' an L immediate
nazi ? retreat, abandoning all;
' northwestern Russia. '.
Of; major significanc is the
Russian capture ; of Krasnoye
' Slo, a key road and rail junc
tion j point ! la "the Lenningrad :
' communication network. Moscow
. said it was taken in five days t
despite - the fact that the Ger
mans held it since i they ; drew
their seig ring about Leningrad
' in th early days of the war.
The position Is : vital to all I
northern ' j communications i ' for
heavy German forces deployed
in the Volkhov, river bulge be
low it At that point, where a '
25-mile-wide gap has been rip-'
ped in the most critical sector
of nazi lines about Lenningrad,
the Russians were less than ten'
miles from Gatchina. Its : cap
ture would cut the last link of -
the Narva-Leningrad rail system
and virtually seal off the Narva
. gateway to Esthonia. j
The Moscow report that the ;
red army ; captured heavy Ger

through which the Krasnoye

Baltic flank pincer appears aim

sible! junction with the second
jaw, driving southward from the
Russian bridgehead , on the mid
dle Volkhov between Novgorod .
and Chudovo.
Just where the southern break- .
through came and how far it had
been : driven is still undisclosed.

' The Russians appear to be al
ready west of the Kerest tribu
tary ; of , the Volkhov, approxi
mately paralelling the larger
'river ten miles to the west. If
that is the extent of the Rus
sian penetration it offers a dead-
ly threat to . one: link of the
. Liningrad-Odessa railway i and
even ..to the Pskov-Leningrad
railroad beyond. , " - 4
Russian cutting of those roads
would leave German forces still
in the Volkhov bulge without
any. escape except for trails and
minor roads. The southern jaw
of the Russian pincer drive is
within 20 miles of the Dno-Len-
ingrad line and only 35 miles,
from the Pskov-Leningrad sys-
tern. Nazi forces in the depth of
the Volkhov bulge are 30 miles
" or more east 'of the Dno-Lenin-
grad railroad but - could reach it
. onlp northwestward and in ; the
face of -the Russian close Invest-
5 ment from the north of Gatchina
junction, ten miles south 1 of
Krasnoye Selo.
As far as the battle' on the
Baltic' flank in Russia has yet
developed it appears to be a full
scale major- Russian offensive
long planned and timed to off
set the obstacles .mat go jwith
'the unseasonable rainy.. weather
in the northern and " central
Ukraine which is helping delay
completion of the Russian effort
" there.
The first swift successes of the
Russian onslaught tend to con-
" firm the impression that nazi
reserves on all fronts in Russia
have been "thinned , out to meet
the succeeding crisis in the cen
ter, and south, in Italy and In
the Balkans. ;
Among other Immediate . re
sults of the opening of the Bal
tic flank campaign must be its
effect : on Finland. The Moscow
- press has been warning the Finns -recently
that their time is short
for seeking escape from their
dubious war partnership with
Hitler.

Letters from Statesman Readers
More About Roosevelt r
To the Editor: f ! - v
Mrs. Mattie Allen of Portland,'
Oregon, is to be commended for
her I fine letter " of January 12,
1944. At our house we read "It
Seems to" Me" with great glee on
the subject mentioned. t Now I"
have not "bowed ; the knee to
Baal" at any of the three oppor
tunities presented the citizens of
the USA. I too prayed the right
man would win. At first it seem
ed God had paid no attention to
my petition; but not so, Roos
evelt was tnei right man; for a
third term. No one In our whole
country could have done better
to show us the folly and danger
to our form of government, of
electing to i the presidency for
more than two terms, any r"",
no matter how" "good" he might
be. By the i word of "his own
m o u t h Mr. Roosevelt regards
such ; tn honor as picayune,
(worth about 6 Y cents).- -
Now I do not agree with Mr.
Willkie in all his political ideas
but he does have too much re
spect for the highest office in all
the land, ever to smear (that
dreadful ' word we have learned
in the last 10 years) or belittle
the one personally who occupies
it He was merely pointing out
the danger of any man's' holding
the office for more than two
terms. ' k " ' f
He did this in a kindly man
ner and because he really loves
hi country and is most I anxious
about its welfare, I do not know ,
whether he is a stamp collector
or . not but there is no doubt he
is as well equipped to deal intel
ligently with the Russians as any
one in our country. He has a
keen mind,' courage with good
common sense. We could do far
worse than 4 to elect him presi
dent. ;:f:i-fy:'.
: jWe have been waiting for the
warning "not to change horses
in the middle of a stream." The -New
Deal , could not afford not
to use It We are not yet in the
middle of a fourth term stream
and had perhaps better make
different arrangements if we

The senate refused to apply
the 194 1 j "pro tenVj act which
protects public officials and em
ployes in their positions, but
used the I constitutional barrier
against holding two lucrative of
fices to rule the three seats va
cant The house on the other
hand, accepted the 1941 statute
as ' applicable, and j recognized
Frank Van Dyke as representa
tive from Jackson county when
he returned during the session
after discharge from the army,
replacing the pro tern member.
If Attorney General Neuner
rules that the senatorial offices
are vacant as' of next Novem
ber, then persons will have to be
nominated and elected to fill
such -'vacancies. - He may hold
that the 1941 statute is control
ling and an election unneces
sary. The 'question then may be
taken to i court in proceedings
against the secretary of sUte if
against the secretary
he accepts or declines to accept
filings of candidacies. The final
decision would rest .with the
1945 senate which ' lis the : sole
judge of the "election, qualifi

' Capt Maurice Witherspoon1
navy chaplain aboard the car
rier Wasp when she sank, tells
of a - rescued wounded sailor,
who, as he regained conscious
ness, asked: "Did I do my best?"
That's the only question you,
too, have to ask yourself when
you decide the extent of your
personal participation in the
fourth war loan.
There undoubtedly will be
large single: purchases of war
bonds in this community, but
yours if it . is your- best will

your home.
