Neuberger Accuses the President
Senator Wayne Morse in 1946 called Presi
dent Truman a "ham actor," a remark he
lived to regret. Now Oregon's freshman
senator, Richard L. Neuberger, has branded
a statement by President Eisenhower as an
"utter falsehood." The President had said
with reference to federal expenditures for
public works such as power plants, that when
the government does this it can print the
money to do the job; and went onto point
out the dangers from printing 'press money:
"That has the effect of cheapening money,
and I don't think we ought to. go into that."
Neuberger' s contention is that these power
plants pay for themselves, hence his appli
cation of "utter falsehood" to the President's
comments. It impresses us as quite juvenile,
like Morse's "ham actor" outburst.
The President was correct in his diagnosis
of the effects of-printing press money: it
does lead to inflation. Theblowing up of the
national debt from around $20 billion 25
years ago to near $275 billion now has been
followed by great inflation, or in other
words, a cheapening of the dollar. To the
extent that the government printed more
money to finance more public works infla
tion would be given fresh stimulus.
Now it is true that projects like Bonneville
and Grand Coulee dams are paying off their
power investment faster than was required
in the 50-year payout schedule. But they
haven't paid it out yet, and it will be years
before they do. It may be argued . that it
is good business for the government to bor
row money to build these self-liquidating
projects, but that doesn't refute the thesis in
the President's general comment on printing
press money.
The new junior senator may disagree with
- the President's theory about deficit financing
and debate its validity; but he does ill to
himself and to his cause by accusing the
President of issuing an "utter falsehood."

on a judgement of $123,000 on the ground of i $t
fraud. Errion has been missing for four
months. Judge Lindberg of Seattle described g
Errion as a "fantastic person endowed with
great facilities of I persuasion, a magnetic
personality and an irresistible charm.". Many
. around here could testify to the truth of the.
judge's description.
Errion, with his then close, associate, J. f
R. Barton, first broke oi the local scene in .f
the late 1930s promoting an oyster-growing -
cooperative for Coos Bay lands. They in-

money; but the enterprise blew up with a
bang when members accused Errion and
Barton of bilking them. Errion persisted in
oyster bed promotion and was indicted for
using mail! to defraud in this operation, but
was acquitted in 1946.
More recently Errion, who had broken
with Barton, was a prime prompter in Beaver
Plywood cooperative which planned a mill
at Independence. Then he claimed to hold a
big body of choice timber, also special pat
ents for machinery. This project died a-born-ing.
Then Errion moved his talents to pro
moting a plywood and hardboard cooperative
at Estacada, and a similar cooperative at
Mount Shasta, California.
Widows seemed to fall victim to Errion's
- charm and plausibility. One in Seattle holds mmmmmmm&!&&
a judgement for $88,000 against him on a
Coos Bay oyster land deal, and two others
are suing him in Seattle courts. Meantime
neither Errion nor any assets in his name
have been located.
The moral is obvious; but while the law
may sometimes circumvent the designers of
evil or pursue them after the event, the law
can't lower the birthrate on suckers.

Please, No "Alternatives"
Among the various ideas sprung at the
legislature over the tax business is one to
submit to the people various alternatives and
let them make the choice. That would be a
poor way to legislate. The people might vote
down all the proposals. That would of course
leave the fateful alternative of putting alt
the deficiency, subject only to the six-mill
levy limitation, on property.
No, let the Legislature adopt the program
it deems best, leaving the event to the hands
of God or the demagogues. We are not sure
whether it should anticipate a referendum
by prescribing an "iffy" special election.
There's a lot of bucking 'and balking because

Confirmation of John Harlan as Supreme
Court justice was long delayed, to the dis
credit of the senators who held up the
nomination in committee. Only 11 voted
against him when his name finally went be
fore the Senate. Justice Harlan is recog
nized as an eminent lawyer, a man of high
character, entirely worthy of the office to
which he has been named. He comported
himself with dignity through the period of
silent treatment accorded him and in the
hearing where senators sought to get him to
commit himself on public issues, probably
for purposes of entrapment. He has a great
name to live up to, that of his grandfather
who served on ihe same court long ' and
ably; but the country should not expect or
want just a carbon copy of his ancestor.
The four representatives from Marion
County have joined to introduce HB 507
which would create two subdistricts in this
county for election of two representatives
each. One is composed of the City of Salem
and 13 adjacent voting precincts; the other of
the remainder of the county. The population
of the county is divided about equally be
tween the two. No senatorial subdistricts are
proposed. The bill has been referred to the
House committee on elections, and presum
ably a public hearing on it will be held.
Then all, who are specially interested may
appear and express themselves. We think the
delegation was wise in offering a subdis
trict.plan. This county voted for the amend
ment which makes such a division possible.
$58 a share on present stock,
or $5.80 on the increased num

it is figured, would permit a

per cent return on a price of

Total assets of Ford Motor
Co. are given at over two billion
dollars, arid sales last year at
four billion; profits around
$200 million. Profits in 1953
were $175 million. The com
pany has been financing its
postwar capital investment of
$1.7 billion without recourse
to bonds or bank loans.
Thus one of the last family
owned industrial empires will
be opened for public ownership
though not, initially at least
to any public control. Ford has
been a magic name in the auto
motive business and in the
world of modern industry. Hen
ry Ford Sr. started his company
in 1903 with a capital of $28,
000. He had it in mind to build
a low-cost car for the mass
market, and surely succeeded.
Ford had a few early partners
but by 1919 had bought up their
interests for $75 million. , Once
after the first World War when
Ford was short ofi cash he
sought bank loans, but when the
bankers insisted o n some
changes and some voice in
management he turned from
them, shipped cars to dealers
and put them on pressure to

Atomic War for Formosa's Offshore Islands
Seen as Likely, Because of U.S. Weakness

What you get
from: this repel-
alwkAbwp. the ckar'poSsi
bility, almost
verging on the likelihood, that
the United States will end by
having to fight an atomic war
iqr Formosa's offshore islands.
That Is not the Eisenhower
administration'; inteatfaa,
of course. The intention is to
. make a ctase-fire deal. r to
teach the Communists to mind
their manners in a "limited"
fight. Bat the Administration's
Intention has less and less rela
tion to the real drift of event.
It can be safely predicted that
the Chinese Communists will not
formally assent to a cease-fire.
In this city where the best in
formation on Communist China
is available, every competent au
thority, American, British and
Chinese, also agrees that Pekings
means to attack the offshore
islands this spring. Therefore,
unless the National Security
Council again reverses American
policy, a fight for the offshore
islands involving American forces
is now in the cards.
In such a fight, the air battle
will be crucial. A powerful Com-"
munist force is now massed for
the air battles in the great Chi
nese airbase complex in Chekiang
and Kiangsi provinces, as al
ready described in this space.
. Ha i we, then, any assurance of
beating this powerful Communist
air force without using the abso
lute weapons?
An unhappy "no" It the only
possible answer to this key ques
tion. No one ran give any other
answer, who knows the hard
facts of oar' weakness.
Our only prospective allies, the
Chirsse Nationalists, have one
unready group of F-86 fighters,
and one obsolete group of F-84s
to match the very great Commu
nist strength in jet aircraft. All
the rest of the small Nationalist
air force is composed of rotary
engined types.
The U. S. Far Eastern air
force has some 500 planes less,
on its roster today than on the
grim day when the Korean War
began. Furthermore, it has no
bombers whatever except for
one group of B-36s on Guam. As
they have been .exclusively
trained with atomic weapons, the
B-36s cannot hit a fair sized
county with conventional bombs.

ers may be ased as bombers.
But the main Job of sweeping
the enemy airfields, which it
the only way to win the air
battle, will have' to be done by
aval air.
That is the realistic situation.
The Navy's leaders in the Pa
cific are strongly committed to
the view that we must Fight for
the offshore islands. They do
r . want to discourage a bold
policy." They profess to be able
to do the job the situation im
poses -on them. -
But history says it is a very
risky business to send in a car
rier force against a strong land
based air force. In the present
case, the risk is" all the greater
because the Communists are
ready to their llyushin-28 jet
bombers, which are almost as
fast as our Corner -borne fight
ers. Maybe the optimism, of the
admirals will be justified by the
events. But common prudence
demands preparedness for a dif
ferent outcome.
This assessment of the situa
tion is tLe rea! explanation of the
recent, sensational Tokyo story
reporting that l.igh American au
thorities expected atomic war in
a matter of weeks. The authori
ties in question were undoubted
ly located in the Air Force.
The American air leaders in
the Far East are no doubt some

E. C. Charlton, assistant chief
of the police of Salem, received
word he had been named to the
board of governors of the Inter

forcement Officials.
In Salem the past week was

That way Ford got over his
financial crisisMEver afterwards
he was quite -allergic to banks
and bankers.
The Ford Foundation was set
up in 1936 to disburse charity
funds of the Ford family. When
Edsel Ford died in 1943 he be
queathed a large block of Ford
stock to the Foundation and
Henry Ford Sr. did the same
on his death in 1947. This
Foundation is now the largest
of all such philanthropic trusts.
Its trustees feel the Foundation
: hould not be so intimately tied
to the fortunes of one business.
This prospective sale of Ford
stock to the public brings to
mind the earlier sale in toto of
a family-owned automobile com
pany. The Dodge Brothers con
cern had been very successful,
but after death of some mem
bers of the family it was sold
to a Wall Street banking house
which distributed the shares to
the public. The company didn't
do so well under the changed
management, so Walter Chrys
ler picked it up and made the
Dodge division an important
component of Chrysler Corpora
tion. In this instance the sale
of Ford stock forecasts no
change in management which
under-the younger Fords, Henry
Ford II and his brother William
has proven aggressive and suc
cessful. .
So widely used is the Ford
ear and so famous the Ford
name that it is easy to predict
that the Ford stock will be
quickly subscribed when it is
offered to the public it doesn't
take a tipster to make that prediction.
The "life" or death" of the Dis

decided at a meeting of the Wil

cil Wednesday.
The series is financed by the
university's student government,

A special meeting will be held !
Tuesday to hear arguments for or
against the series. Townspeople
are expected to state their views
at this meeting, which will be
held at 4 p.m. at Eaton Hall, as
will the Wednesday meeting.
The university's student gov
ernment now pays the amount of
the cost of a concert not covered
by the sale of tickets. The money
is taken out of a student govern
ment fund.
Discussed at the Tuesday meet
ing will be the possibility of
charging an activity fee to each
student to help defray expenses.
Another topic will be subsidiza

Road Repairs
Potential road improvements oc

bers Friday as two requests for
improvement under the Bancroft
Act and one request to re-open a
road were received.
More than 70 per cent of prop

Labish Village have requested by
petition that the street be im
proved, according to County Sur
veyor A. D. Graham.
Another property owner, who
lives on S. 13th street, conferred
with the court about possible im
provements . in his area. He was
told the road could be improved
under the Bancroft Act, but could
not become part of the county sys
tem because it is 10 feet short of
the required 50-foot width for
county roads. He told the court
he would seek additional right-of-way.
The county is also considering
re-opening a road in Gates which
it vacated some years ago. Re
quest to re-opn the road was
made by a property owner who
now has no road leading to his
place.
The court was told by Assistant
Engineer Ted Kuenzi that if it
should open the road it would give
also access to county-owned prop
erty along the Santiam River
which could be used for public
park purposes. No decision was
reached.

are also inclined to expect land

carrier aviation. The Air Force

these reasons.
Yet however much you discount

still more closely in accord with
the facts than the admirals' view

the forces available in the Far
East to be even reasonably sure
of winning a fight for the 'off

give us a reasonable margin
were sacrificed, long ago. to the
budget and the tax structure.
But if we enter the fight for
the offshore islands, we most
win at all costs. For if Amer

defeat as a decisive proof of su

Tribute to Van Meters
To the Editor:
May I add a very brief note to
your recent editorial entitled, "A
Practicing Preacher."
When I was sponsoring the
Fair Employment Practices Bill
in the 1949 session of the Oregon ,
Legislature, I found no more
helpful or effective ally than the
Reverend William S. Van Meter.
Reverend Van Meter not only
brought many outstanding people
to the Senate Committee on
Labor to testify in behalf of the
bill, but also played a major
role in helping to mobilize the
public opinion which eventually
resulted in passage of the bill.
"Both Reverend Van Meter and
his wife, Jane, were always .in
the forefront of various human
itarian causes in which the Legis
lature interested itself. Without
such people I doubt if very much
social legislation of a forward
looking nature ever would be
passed. It takes the Bill Van
