Am newspaper. Feeding the People f Congress is .going to investigate the food sit uation again. One shivers at the prospect. The government administration j agencies haven't done too well in controlling food supply and distribution, but no one has suffered for lack of food. Civilians are eating better than they ever have before, as a. whole; our army is the best fed army in the world; we have shared our sub stance with allied nations with some allowance for liberated countries. .. A congressional committee is apt to start with two disqualifying, prejudices; first, a jealousy of administrative agencies; second, readiness to accept the producer viewpoint. On the first point congressmen as well as others delight in" abusing.bureaus and bureaucrats. ,' Members ap- pear to have a sort of . inferiority complex as regards the executive branch of government, so they vent their spleen on the underling divi sions. It is always easy to cast judgments on -the basis of hindsight; and in the management of the provisioning of tens of millions of peo ple blunders are sure to show up, which will form choice meat for the investigators. In the second place, the senators and con gressmen from the farm belt who are under steady pressure to break down price controls on farm products will be sure tq argue that if only the farm group plan had been adopted things would be better. Maybe they would; but con gressmen and senators who are playing up Mo : the farm vote are hardly the best judges. '; A year ago there was a surplus of eggs and so much pork that fewer farrowings were urged because of limits of animal feed. This year sup plies are down, but demand has taken a big jump due to heavier fighting and to opening of so much of Europe which is calling for food- stuffs. ' The tendency ' seems to be to cut down else where so that our domestic food supplies may remain high, tRough a cut of 12 per cent on . meats is set for April 1. It would be wrong to ' say however that the civilian population is suf fering from any lack of - food. Virtually all kinds of food are available though not in the quantities of normal times. We may have some what shorter rations for a few months, but no one will suffer. The cut of 87 per cent in American supplies of meat to Britain which is reported to be planned for the next quarter seems unduly drastic be cause the British meat allowance is very small as it is. This cut would reduce the weekly meat rations from 24 to 20 cents worth per person in the British isles. We in America can stand more of a reduction than 12 per cent rather than di minish the portion $o Britain by 87 per cent. jThese questions are primarily administrative and decisions must be left with administrative bodies. It's all right for them to be under con stant scrutiny, and for their acts to be discussed and commented on. Even congress must be per mitted its authority-to investigate. But there U no reason to get panicky. We can still take some curtailment in supplies. And the prospect is that before many (months there will be some relief. And we roust remember that Britain has been on very short rations for nearly six years, , and that peoples on the continent, many of -them, suffer from rfcal malnutrition.

Our Oregon problem Is very tiny, on an acreage basis, though the ruin k of greater significance than the area would indicate because o fthe limited quantity of good bottom land in those districts where gold dredging is carried on. 1 v - Other states have a similar problem on a far greater scale due to strip mining for coal. Mod ern power machinery has made strip mining very profitable where the overburden is not too great. In 1914, strip mines produced 1,281,000 tons of coal. The quantity increased to 21 mil lion tons in 1934 and by 1944 the strip mine pro duction reached 93 million tons, or 15 per cent of the total of bituminous coal produced. According to an article in the Wall Street Editorial Comment FLOOD CONTROL ; The army engineers in Portland state that the Fern Ridge dam on the Long Tom river has proven its usefulness as a unit in ultimate flood control by a network of seven dams. The completed network will, have as its chief purpose the reduction of flood damage in the Willamette river basin .as well as to provide benefits in the way of navigation and Irrigation. Col. Ralph A. Tudor, however, Portland district army engineer, states that two years of op eration show that a maximum benefit can be de-' rived from Fern Ridge dam only if river channel the inner dissension within Germany and elements.
