Wallace,! an other democratic gubenatorial can didate, charged the "republican arty in Oregon had done nothing n the past 30 years but spend money . provided by a national democratic administration." Wallace, who is making his third attempt for the governorship, said ,he believea in persistence "Lin- coin ran. for office nine times Ibe s fore he was elected." Wallace crit icized the state's present reforest ation program and said Gov. Mc iKay "played politics" in his re .cent appointment of an all-repub-ilican new state game commission.

And Smile-the- while, , U t " " il ' or Red Scoffs at 'Peace Crusade' Suggestion MOSCOW, March 13-iP-Ilya Ehrenburg, Soviet commentator for Pravda, made a reference to Senator Brien McMahon's recent proposals today and said "In vain Mr. McMabon thinks of buying us out." (Senator McMahon In a senate speech February 2 proposed that the United States contribute 50 billion dollars to a "peace cru sade" in which Russia and other countries would be aided eco nomically, in return for general acceptance of an effective plan to control atomic energy. He also has urged that a meeting of the United Nations be held in Moscow to debate control of atomic energy). "Our people will never live according to other people's orders." said Ehrenburg. "In vain Mr. Truman contemplates frightening us, in vain Mr. Mc Mahon thinks of buying us out. Don't Need Advice "We don't need the advice of ignorant South Carolina slave owners and we don't fear, haber dashery salesmen from across the ocean, even lr iney aaveruse bombs Instead of suspenders." (There was no explanation of the reference to "South Carolina slaveowners." McMahon is a democrat from Connecticut. So viet commentators frequently re fer to President Truman as a haberdasher. (A section In the middle of this dispatch was not received by the Associated Press in New York. Presumably it war being held up by Soviet censors). Points to Opposition On the other hand Pravda quot ed the Louisville Courier Journal as saying proposals that President Truman meet Prime Minister Stalin to discuss atomic control had created such force it had rattled the windows of the state department The article said the Kentucky paper observed that de spite a growing demand from the American people the state depart ment still opposed such. confer ence. Pravda said thousands of letters were reaching the offices of congressmen in Washington de manding that serious efforts be undertaken to solve present Soviet-American disagreements. Statement Aims At Clarification Of Egg Laws In reference to recent stories which have appeared concerning the possibility of infertile incubat ed eggs finding their way Into certain broken-egg market chan nels, W. E. Upshaw, manager of the Portland branch office of the state department of agriculture, has issued a statement clarifying Oregon egg laws. Upshaw is in charge of the Oregon egg law enforcement. The commercial egg breaking business in Oregon Is carried on under state license and regula tion, Upshaw states. The annual license fee is $50 and the statute requires that the egg breaker have suitable and sanitary housing, machinery and equipment. He continues: Egg meats, in liquid, frozen or dried form, are required to be labeled with the name and address of the packer or the person for MS) whom the meats were packed; the kind of egg meats in the contain er, that is, whether whites, yolks, whole eggs, or otherwise; the net weight of contents, and name and percentage weight of any added substance. Standards Net Attempted . , Official grade standards for egg meats have not as yet been at tempted by either the states or the federal government. Under state law eggs not con sidered fit for human consump tion may not be legally broken for the purpose of slae. Grade C eggs are the lowest quality eggs which meet the minimum require ments. Infertile eggs taken from incubators on the seventh day will usually qualify as Grade C. The only legislation in Oregon affect ing the sale of Incubated eggs is a section which states, "No person shall sell or offer for sale or ex pose for sale any incubated egg unless the same is branded or stamped with the word 'Incubat ed ". This section only applies to -such eggs when sold In the shell. Picks Up Samples In addition to sanitary inspec tions, the department of agricut ture periodically picks up egg meat samples for test purposes. Bacteria counts are made in the state laboratory, but primarily the best test as to edibility- of egg meats is still the organaleptical test. Organaleptical is just an ex pensive way of saying that they are tested by smell. During the years that the Oregon egg law has been in effect, the department has had occasion to seize a number of lots of questionable egg meats. In the majority of such instances the meats In question were from bootleg sources. Reasonably dis criminating food manufacturers or processors do not and should not purchase unlabeled egg meats from unlicensed operators. G. F. Zwicker, Retired City Employe, Dies George .7.

Lie '6n Soot' Over Support Of China Reds LAKE SUCCESS. March 12 -4JPi U.N. Secretary-general Trygve Lie has put himself squarely on a spot In championing the Chinese communists' claim to the right to represent China in the United Na tions. He held his ground In the face of newspaper criticism. There is little likelihood that attacks by U. senators will alter his stand. The Norwegian chief executive of the U.N. has raised a standard of saving the U.N." He says "I am working for a solution based on the collective interests of .the United Nations as a whole, rather than on the interests of Individual mem bers." That means he Is willing to see nationalist China ousted from the U.N. and supplanted by Mao Tze tung's communist representatives. That is what Russia wants. Russia says she will not come back into U.N. sessions until that is done. Lie's legal stand is that the gov ernment which actually controls a country and its people is the gov ernment which should be seated at U.N. council sessions. Lie says that is common sense and not just a surrender to the Russians. Coupled with his "save the U-N. campaign, his stand is interpreted widely in U.N. circles as an at tempt to get at least two more se curity council members Into line to seat the Chinese communists Fifteen of the 59 UN. members have given Mao diplomatic recog nition. Five of the 11 security council members Britain, Nor way, Yugoslavia, India and Rus sia have recognized Mao. The United States has said that if seven members, a majority of tne security council, agree to seat the Chinese communists, the Americans won't actively oppose them, beyond casting a No" vote. Catholic Ecuador and Moslem Egypt are regarded as the most immediate targets of Lie's elebor- ate opinion. Lie's memoramdum gives them the legal excuse. His save the U.N." standard gives them the moral excuse. There has been no open discus sion of what will happen if Lie's campaign fails. He is on a spot which may mean political dis grace, although he has offered to let expert legal opinion and his tory judge him. Lie-has insisted for a long time that he is not a candidate for re appointment when his term as sec retary-general ends next Satur day.

He spoke in the Interest of the Methodist Commission on Over seas Relief, which he has headed since 1948. The retired bishop, formerly head of the Portland area, told of sending powdered milk to aave babies in starvation areas, medi cines, goats to replenish herds and provide milk, blankets and others items to those in need in foreign ' countries. Distribution was cheapened and speeded, he said, by working through the mis sionaries and other church work ers in those lands. The commission was set up just before World War II broke, when church leaders began to realize the suffering it would cause. To meet the needs of the past decade, asserted Bishop Lowe, the funds have "come in like the ravens that fed Elijah . . . just when the need was greatest. Forum Hears Proponents of Atlantic Union The proposed Atlantic Union of Nations was termed "the step which would make effective the policy our country has adopted" by State Supreme Justice James T. Brand at a public forum here Sunday night. , , A full-world federation, arrived. at through brotherhood and com munity, was advocated by Dr. Or val Etter of San Francisco, west ern secretary for the Fellowship of Reconciliation, a pacifist group. Etter and Brand spoke at the First Congregational church be fore about 150 persons. "We're In Western Europe now, if we backed down Russia would take it over in a year or less, said Brand, who is chairman of the At lantic Union committee in Oregon. "I am critical of the Atlantic Union because it proposes a part world government for intimidat ing the other side; that is tearing away its foundation," said Etter. There has been too much ster eotyping of the Russian charac ter, said Etter, adding that a third of Russia's population Is reported to be Christian. "We can drive wedge between the people and the Kremlin if we stop pilloring them and devote more energy to world community, he added. : Etter suggested we put our own house in order on such issues as racial discrimination; improve our financial structure; and feed peo ple of the world on the basis of need instead of using bread as a political weapon. This type of ac tion, he Indicated, will bring about world brotherhood. Brand said the Atlantic Union is looked on as a first step and in volves the proposition that other democracies would be invited to join. "Any who favor extension of Russian domination should oppose the Atlantic Union," he said. It may take further education on the part of congress and the people before we are ready fOTHhe-j movement, however, Brand added. Palace Theatre SHverton.
