Last year, reports the ,U.S. Bureau of Mines,, gold production in this state was only 5,509 ounces, with a value of $192,815. Except for the war years this is the !-lowest of any year since the. pioneers start ed turning up the yellow stuff in this terri--, tory. S Once, in 1865, the state's gold production reached total valuation of $8 million. Those ;were the days of 'the diggings around Jack ; sonville and Grant County and Baker Coun- X California's gold production has decreased from nearly 1.5 million ounces in 1940 to ;253,553 ounces in. 1952. In states where min ' ing of base metals is active some gold is ob tained as a by-product. The July issue of itk X-Ore-Bin of the Oregon Department of Geo- :t;Jogy and Mineral Industries fives this aum 'mary of present day activity- or lack of it - in; gold mininj: Most of Oregon's gold production in recent years has come from placer mining, especial ly dredeinz. In 1992. 83 per cent of value of ; production came from the operation of Pow r. der River Dredging Company in Sumpter Val ; ley. Baker County. This is the only old Z dredging operation Jeft in the state. Two lode ' mines, the Buffalo mine near Granite in Grant " County and the Champion mine operated by Harold E. I Barton, lessee, in the Bohemia I District. Lane County, produced a small I; amount -of gold from ore shipped to smelters. ti Gold produced from the small lode mining operations amounted to S per cent of the to . ' tiL A very imal proportion of the gold pro- y, duced from placer mines came from hydrau ; lie operations which worked during periods of high water a)nd when placering was not prohibited by orders of the Regue River Co- ' r "ordination Board. Ashland,s Festival Ashland's Shakespearean festival will run through the month of August, with a series of playi from "the immortal bard." This is one of the notable events of the summer sea son on the West Coast, -and attracts many visitors from far and near. - The opening play, August 1, will be the tragedy "Coriolanus' one which is not per formed very often. Following in sequence will be "Merchant of Venice," "Henry IV, Part I." and Taming of the Shrew. On the second and fourth Sunday: nights Elizabethan con certs will be given, in lieu of the dramas, the Portland Symphony performing the night of August 9. National Broadcajtirtg Company will put the play "Taming of the Shrew" on the iir Saturday night, August 8. As per usual the bill dealing with O & C controverted lands will be shelved in the rush for adjourning. That has been the fate of similar bills in the past. This one, by Sen. ; Cordon and Rep. Ellsworth, would have given ;iKe lands but7 the proceeds of sales would be divided according to the present O &. C for mull. I Even when the two departments are agreed on the compromise, passage of the bill Is-'difficult. It will'be up for consideration in the next session; but so many measures have been moved forward to 1954 that the machin ery will have to be well lubricated to get favorable action on it then. - Attitude of Reds Toward Armistice Pledges To Mold United States7 Post-Truce Policy ByJ. M. ROBERTS, JR. Associated Press News Aaalyst When the British begin to talk . about basing their attitude toward ' Red China on the sincerity dis played by the Chinese themselves.

The United States is anxious to avoid discussion of membership In connection with the Allied desire for unification of Korea. She has been extremely anxious over the British tendency to meet Chinese terms at this and other points in order to get Britain's China trade back to a more regu lar basis. i In addition to the matter of Red China's character, the United States has also cited the fact that British diplomatic recognition of Peiping before the Korean War didn't produce much of a response Literary Guidepost .

Rogers f THE MAN WITHOUT QUALI " TIES, by Robert MosiL trans lated from German by Eithpe Wilklas and Ernst Kaiser (Cow- ard-McCana; $4) Two things happen, or mildly -threaten to happen, in this over whelmingly Germanic novel set in Vienna in the year before World War I opened: A Col lateral Campaign is organized in honor of both Emperors Franz-Josef and Wilhelm, and a sex maniac, Moosburgger, is tried for murder.

United Nations, General; Assembly will con vene August 17 and its major topic will be setting up the peace conference on ; Korea. This will not be just i U5, Korea-North Korea; Red : China, parley; The UJf. will set up the composition of the conference and de termine where it will meet J ? Here we have the seeds of controversy and disillusion. -India want a seat in the confer ence and wants -places for Communist na tions. Some of our statesmen have protested giving a seat to a U.N. member , which, like India, made po contribution of military forces for the Korean fighting. Opposition will arise to Russia's representation at the conference. Clearly, John Foster Dulles and Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge will have their hands full negotiating the framework of the conference at this U.N. Assembly. They may find it al most as hard to get an acceptable agreement On the composition of the conference as on the subjects it will take up and how they may be disposed j of. Pushed forward by Russia at every oppor tunity is the admission of Red China to U.N. in place of Nationalist China. Secretary Dul les opposes such a step, and the Congress is quite adamant against admitting Red China. But Britain is evidently ready to concede the point after a decent interval if other',consid erations are'j met. There is a possibility, but a thin one, that some package deal could be made! Say, giv ing Red China the seat in U.N. on condition that Korea be unified with free elections and no further support given the Viet Minh re bels. But China probably will insist on get ting possession, of Formosa, too. Under strong pressures from Congress the U.S. delegation will not be willing to agree to this or to any early admission of Red China to U.N. In the face of so many obstacles the dele gates to the coming peace conference will have to be j persons of remarkable skill in diplomacy to work out any general settle mentThe safest procedure is to try to limit the agenda to Korea, leaving to some later conference or to other negotiation the settle ment of other Far Eastern questions. The Townsend plan of enforced retirement it, age 60 doesn't seem to apply to world statesmen. Here is Herbert Hoover taking on mother job at age 79. He has plenty of com pany, too. Sir Winston Churchill is in his 79th year. Chancellor Adenaur of Germany is; 77: Pres. Syngman Rhee is the same age. Ex-Premier Pi Gasperi is another sep- tuigenirian; Premier Yoshida of Japan is 75- and Mossadegh of Iran 72. Secretary of the Interior McKay has thrown his support to the Grant County, Washington, PUD which is seeking a federal license to develop power at Priest Rapids on the Col umbia, a little way above Pasco. We doubt if the Grange will shout "giveaway" on that endorsement. -."Come and Get It" has a most welcome sound to hungry residents of the Soviet zone of Germany. They brave the threats of police and scowls of Communist functionaries to get some of the proffered food in West Berlin. Russia hn a hard time combatting this kind of propaganda. Wayne Petit, veteran ttatehouse reporter for the Oregon i an, has done a series on the governors he has k nown in his- stretch of over a third of a century. As "one who was there" part of the time, we would say Wayne has been to our virtues "very kind" an'd to our faults (more than) "a little blind."

Americans also applauded the statement of Selwyn Lloyd. British minister of state, that "this armi stice should form a turning point for the better in the Far East. In any case we shall do our duty by the world causes of which we are the servants. All this represents a tendency toward greater Allied unity at an extremely critical time.

EXCLUSIVE!: Bin Crosby and the big brass of CBS are huddling about The Groaner" moving over into television this fall Despite his ducking the issue ill this time, Bing has outpriced himself in the radio field. Potential sponsors are balkiing at the $16,500 price tag for Crosby on radio, when they can buy a similar show on same medium with star billings for as little as $3,000. Most likely Bing will have topnotch guests on the new TV show with son Lindsay cutting up a lew touches and a song or two with the old man. CRITIC'S CORNER: "Summer Stock," ti--tth Robert Mont gomery introducing the shows, got off to a mediocre start in its first effort, "Half a Millionaire." The premise of the story was ridiculous but the presentation and acting almost suc ceeded in making the viewer forget how absurd the story line was. John Newland and Vaughn Taylor, both fine talents, were wasted with this script. Elizabeth Montgomery, Bob's pretty daughter, made her debut as the feminine lead. She shows promise and with more experience may yet bring new honors to the Montgomery name. .

Today in progressive states, medical measures are now being undertaken to protect the fight e r s . Physicians thoroughly screen the men to make sure that their hearts are in good condition. They examine for the possibility of epilepsy or the tendency to have convulsions. in some states, any fighter that is knocked unconscious is required to have an electroen cephalogram, which is taken by an instrument that measures the brain .waves and determines whether any brain damage has been brought about Much damage can be prevent ed to -the fighter by using eight and ten-ounce gloves rather than the usual six-ounce ' glove.

King Features) Skdqb (continued from page one.) would have voted No on a roll call: Mignuson and Jackson of Washington, Lehman of New York, Stennis of Mississippi, Mennings , of Missouri, Murray of Montana, Hayden of Arizona, and one lone Republican,' Cooper of Kentucky. The bill should have been de feated. Enough of the Reds have gone to jail for contempt rather than testify to indicate this action would not pry open their lips. The bill might open the way to more serious abuses. The origin of the Fifth Amendment lies in the roots of free government It was a product of opposition to the Star Chamber proceedings in the reign of the Stuart kings when men were hailed into closed courts and forced to tes tify against themselves on mat ters of religion or politics. Granted that the pinkos and others have abused the proteo, tion granted under the amendJ ment, still we ought not to "throw out the baby with the bathwater," and vitiate this amendment merely to expose a , lot of run-of-mine pinks. Very strong arguments against . the bill were made by Lehman, Hoey of South Caro lina and Cooper. Among the arguments were these: , 1. Immunity should be grant ed only by the . executive or judicial departments. It is not within the proper functions of congress; 2. A. grave, doubt exists as to whether this extension of fed eral immunity would exempt a witness from prosecution under state law. If not. then the reso lution would be valueless, be cause the witness still could find shelter under the 5th amend ment 3. Such an authority might permit abuses graver than now exist. Think of the parade of gamblers .and racketeers who came before the Kefauvcr com mittee. Suppose to induce then to testify they should be granted immunity what a farce would be- made of justice! Congress would not do that with well advertised gamblers like Frank Costello or racketeers like Joe Adonis, but it might have with some of the slickers on income tax cases. The strongest argument is this which was made by Senator Cooper, Republican of Ken tucky: "I want to protect in every way possible our free system of government from without or from subversion, but I want also to protect the free structure itself. One of tbe greatest qual ities of our system is found in the amendments which consti tute our Bill of Rights for the protection of the individual. They protect the individual who may be guilty, as well as the individual who is innocent It is the way the guaranty of indi vidual rights from oppression can be made effective. At times those amendments turn loose the guilty. There is no question about that But recognize that fact, we adhere to the Bill1 of Rights because it protects against the power of the .Gov ernment itself and because they protect, at last, the innocent. "When, for reasons of expedi ency or emergency, we weaken these individual rights and give inordinate powers or emergency powers to any branch of our , Government, it is the record of j history that at last that power j will be used wrongfully, or will be used unwisely, or against! innocent individuals." Where in this very important business did our Oregon Sena tors stand? Both Cordon and Morse were present Cordon made no comment and the way he voted is not recorded. But Morse swallowed the bill after he obtained the amendment per mitting an overriding of the attorney general by a majority yea-and-nay vote of the House or Senate. Senator Morse has consis tently advertised himself as a ''constitutional liberal" or at least he did before he became an "independent" The stand he took on this bill was neither "constitutional'' nor "liberal." The ultra-liberal "I. F. Stone's Weekly- has a heading: A Southern "Reactionary" Defend ed the Bill of Rights While the "Liberal" Morse Helped McCarran Put It Over." And it runs this paragraph: The Independent from Ore gon, not at all independent where McCarran and McCarthy are concerned, had succeeded in diverting debate from prin ciple ' te procedure, and then watering down even procedural safeguards." . I do not take Stone's Weekly i for a guide but I would have expected Morse to be in the battle along with Lehman and Cooper to uphold the principle embodied in the 5th amendment, and not merely to introduce an extra step - (vote- of House or Senate) for authorizing a grant of immunity. The House has yet to act on this bill, which is opposed by ,the attorney general. If it doe become law perhaps history will repeat itself. In 1857 'similar authority was granted to con gressional committeer, but as Sen. Lehman ' reported: "The evils and troubles resulting from that, legislation were so pro nounced to rconlre C"n.'ess to amend it five years later, " The 5etT "'I'rse s not to permit it to become law. fTimb Flies rHOM STATESMAN FILES 10 Years Ago J July 11. 141 The army transportation corps reported It had moved 2,000,000 troops overseas to more than 50 countries. j The Eyerly Aircraft Company of Salem has turned its drills and electric welders to the job of making machine tools for wartime use. i - Lt Cecil Quesseth, son of Mr. and Mrs. George Quesseth re cently commissioned in the army air corps M in Salem on leave.
