One of its examples is the rash of jjimmicks which attend modern-day mer chandising. Sales, of .appliances are often accompanied with special deals, like soaps and detergents for washing machines or a store of food for deepfreeze lockers, until One . is not certain whether the machine is going with the soap or the soap with the machine. "Insurance companies are quick to. promote their wares and are ready with tie-in deals to assume the balance of pay ments on a house, car, appliance in event it death of the purchaser for a small remium. iC lding stamps are another lure for busi- a 4 . . r m X "jo. One or the big looa cnains, oaieway, lasvheen bucking the trading stamp trend ut mow is trying it out in a small way. i'hfrw there is the shower of coupons put outjjy manufacturers which worry the life of market -keepers because of their number. According to a publication' in the oil busi-, ness gasoline stations are spending $42 mil lion a year on premiums for customers, ranging from trading stamps to mink coats and Cadillacs. New York papers last week were featuring big ads offering lush prem iums for patrons of the service stations of one of the big oil companies. Some have tried to stop the rash with legislation, but haven't succeeded. The Ore gon court ruled that trading stamps are not in violation 1 lair iraae laws. . nnai mci- chandising is experiencing is the pressure of competition for volume business, and the gimmicks which are introduced merely re flect the imagination and resourcefulness of American businessmen. Sometimes the gim-. rr irL-e YimrV enmetimAf ' tViAxr Afnft "Rnf where one fails two more seem to sprout in its. place. " , As for the customer, he has to learn whether the; gimmick is an added value or not. He or she is the one who has the last say in the retail field. Districting Bill Referred ; i ' One of the surprises we got was the cool ness of the people of Marion county outside the Salem area to redistricting the j county into legislative subdistricts. For some years we had heard complaints that Salem was hogging the legislative delegation, so we were glad to , support the . constitutional amendment giving legislature authority to 'divide the county for election of senators and representatives. When a bill finally emerged it called only for dividing the county into two subdistricts for electing representatives, two from each. This was opposed by resi dents of the north end of the county who wanted the present plan to continue in which they got to vote for all candidates, and it was "opposed by residents of the south part, par ticularly up Staytonfway, because it didn't ' create four subdistricts, one to be elected in each subdistrict. 1 I Senator Mark Hatfield had to use pliers to get the bill on the calendar and then it was amended to let the people of the county vote on it at the next general election. Then we shall see whether the voters like it or not. GRIN AND BEAR IT Bv Ltelity ID tnmotp ert Becomes Law after State Meat Inspection . The Grants Pass Courier notes that five legislative sessions in a row had turned down state meat inspection the recent session, the 48th, set up a pilot program. An appro priation of $75,000 was made which will be supplemented by fees collected from (pack ers and meat dealers. This will enable the State Department of Agriculture to make a start on inspection of meats for human con sumption, a' service now performed by fed eral inspectors only in the few plants in the state electing it, and by inspectors from some cities. I The Courier credits Southern Oregon pack ers withheading the campaign for the bill. That part of the state -has suffered! from dumping of meats that would not pass Cali fornia inspection. One person who deserves a major share of the credit for this initial leg islation is Mrs. Marie Bosworth of the Med -ford League of Women Voters. She gathered petitions, came to Salem with them and lob bied energetically for this consumer protec tion. rBiii m r j lir- I i m jM0bofs th latest m automatic time-taring kitchen equipmtnt for the I basy home maker with the htttt m tdtrision? . , 333IEE (Continued from page one) t: Free Austria ; The powers have finally agreed on terms of a state treaty with Austria, ending the state of war jwhich has existed for 17-years and restoring Austria as an independent and sovereign state in the company of nations. Foreign ministers of the four late allied pow ers: Britain, jFrance, Russia and the United States are to assemble " in Vienna for the signing of the treaty on Sundar. Thjr bbrisummation of hope long deferred cuse$ i the whole world to breathe . a bit eteierr The treaty could have been agreed to years ago. jMost of its conditions had been swelled out, pnly Russia balked time and again as the other powers and Austria pressed for a treaty. Seventeen-years of sus pense is long j in international relations, but the world rejoices that the Russian glacier thawed enoueh to m permit Austria to live again in freedom. The Henry Kaiser venture into auto manu facturing has been disappointing, but other of the Kaiser industries have been booming, notably Kaiser Aluminum and Chemical Co. and Permanente Cement Co. The steel plant at Fontana, Calif has also been a success. The Aluminum enterprise has-attracted the interest, and the capital of giant Kenriecott Copper Co. which has been diversifying its interests, as has Anaconda which is going into aluminum production in Montanar Henry Kaiser seems to have lost none of his busi ness aggressiveness in spite of the fact that the years are creeping up on him. We in , Marion county, particularly those who have followed the work of the Marion County Health Department, are aware of the fine record of faithful service whkh has beer rendered over the years by Mrs. Bernice Yeary, R. N., head of the nurses' division of the department. It is gratifying to know; that that service has been recognized by the state organization, Oregon Nursing Service, as was witnessed in the presentation of a testimonial scroll to her recently. Mrs. Yeary has given able leadership in the field of public health nursing, and is well entitled to this award. ; Rare Metal Discovered in East Oregon PRAIRIE CITY OP) A govern ment assay er found columbium, a rare strategic metal, in a sample Dick Martin, Prairie City, dug from a ledge along Dixie Creek near here, Martin reported Thurs day.. . j He said the government notified him it was sending a geologist to check the deposit in Grant County. Martin dug the sample in the hope it would have uranium. In stead, he said, he was told it showed 2 per cent columbium. I At Portland the State Depart ment of Geology and Minerals said there have been several such funds in Eastern Oregon but so far no deposit has been large enough to make mining commer cially feasible. Persons prospect ing for uranium have found the. mineral, a spokesman explained, because it is radioactive and reg isters on Geiger counters. j Columbium is used in high temperature alloys which are needed for jet plane pipes. The nation now must import most sup plies, although, the spokesman said, substantial production of columbium has started at a mine in Bear Valley, Idaho,, where a good deposit was located. J We build more expressways and arterial streets so motorists can set to the metropol itan centers 'faster. Then we tear down buildings in the city center to provide more parking space which forces tenants to move to -the suburbs. In other words to "save" the city center, we destroy it. 1 Federal Agencies to Cram Information Into I Eisenhower Before Meeting With Bulganin Those who have picnicked under the tall firs at the Clackamas county fairgrounds at Canby will grieve over the order of the coun ty court to have them cut down the space id be available for a carnival at fair time, reports the Canby Herald. The decision to remove them is based on report of tree; ex perts that they ought to come down, land then the area replanted with different species of Oregon trees to form an arboretumi. If that is done 25-50 years hence picnicking in the grove may be' resumed. j By J. M. ROBERTS AP News AiaJyst President Eisenhower is going to have to do a lot of homework in the next several weeks if he goes te meet Bulganin. Every effort will be made in Washington tojnake him a walking State Department. He will be briefed and briefed, and- then briefed some more, on all of the things which have gone on in rela tions with Russia over the years. The President sounded Wednes day as though he rather expected the top-level discussions to be con fined to broad general issues, with any decisions to revolve around areas in which the chief of state agree there is a possibility the foreign ministers can get together. The Russian record, however, suggests that the President better be ready himself with a lot of detail. ; - One of the greatest troubles at Yalta layin the fact that President Roosevelt, while equipped with a vast array of State Department in telligence memoranda accompa nied by advice, chose to work pri marily on the broad general line of establishing a cooperative position, first with regard to the Japanese war, and then with regard to Dost , war problems. Stalin, on the other hand, had a whole batch of definite postwar ob jectives, and by i obfuscation set himself up to attain them. The Americans learned something 'rom that experience about the way Russians use words like "democ racy" and "freedom." In many ways Eisenhower's task will be easier than Roosevelt's, be cause he win know definitely that he is dealing with an enemy. Plenty of people told Roosevelt that, too, but be believed be could prevent tt from proving true. One thing Eisenhower may have to do is go back ovei the road on which Roosevelt stumbled at Yalta the matter of the fate of subju- srated Ertera European Rations. In , any consideration of things which might ease the cold war there always lies in the back ground the fact that the United States can't just pull out of Europe and leave the satellites in slavery. It would undermine her position throughout the world. - When President Truman went to Potsdam the chief matters of con cern were procedural how the Big Three of those days would carry out their administration of conquered territories. A detail was overlooked then which later; en abled the Russians to set up their Berlin blockade and create a situ ation which barely skirted war. Such inherent dangers are well known to Eisenhower and his ad visers. America knows her world political lessons much better than she did ten years ago. The task and responsibility now faced by the President, however, remains mon umental. - ! Association of Advertising Agencies. Those agencies qualify which meet certain credit condi tions and which are "ethical," that is retain the full commission allowance as compensation and do not split it with the advertiser. The second complaint is that publications grant the commis sion to advertising agencies but not to an advertiser who wishes to place his copy, direct This is true? it is a practice of long standing. The justification offered is that the agency really works up a large volume of advertis ing and gives a professional serv ice jwhich makes the advertis ing more successful. As far as publications are concerned there is no agreement or conspiracy any publication can determine its own policy in this regard. Custom has pretty firmly estab lished the agency commission practice and the amount allowed. : Asj for credit rating," the indivi dual; paper needs to have;some assurance that the agency or ad vertiser placing business by mail is responsible and will pay his bill, i Recognition by the ANPA merely simplifies the procedure, in checking credits. So far as I am Informed no publication re jects! advertising offered whose copy! is not objectionable if the credit rating is satisfactory. For the latter a bank reference can suffice. "'-. I do not think publishing ; as sociations or advertising agencies should get huffy because their practices are brought in question by j the federal government. The facts lean easily be brought out and the issues there determined. If any of the practices do violate anti-trust laws, changes can be made! to bring conformity. What is plain to all those in the busi ness is that advertising agencies do! perform a valuable service which! deserves adequate com pensation. Practice has provided that this come from the publica tions ; getting .the ' advertising rather; than, from the advertiser. Shifting the burden would be something of an upset, but the readjustment could be made. The S attorney for the ANPA sought' refuge behind the first amendment which guarantees freedom of the press. I do not see there is any relationship be tween advertising customs and press freedom. Let the case go on to trial. 2 MacLaren Youths Found t Statesman Kwr Service ' SILVERTON Two boys from Macfcaren School were found walking toward Silverton along a highway by a state . policeman after a four-hour search at Silver Falls State Park failed to turn them up. j The boys are Russell Dean Ramsdell, 16. and Elmer Howard Moore, 17. They were found by Officer Robert Anderson about 8 p.m. five miles from Silverton on the Tiighway to the state park. The boys had been on an outing in'the'park with several others. Anderson. Marion County sher iffs deputies and MacLaren School personnel had engaged in the hunt The boys told Ander son they got lost from their fellows. JLXDI Exper Time Flies: From Th Statesman Files 10 Years Ago May 13. 1945 From Washington, D.

Y.-(MP) The old adage, "slow as molasses in January," was well illustrated here recently. The manager of a local feed store could not mix his dairy cattle feed because the mo lasses was too cold to be pumped through pipes into the mixing ma chine. And with good reason the mercury stood at 22 below zero. School Reporter .
