GRIN AND BEAR IT By Liclity
Highway 99W Alternate
Highway boosters over in Yamhill and
Washington counties are promoting a route
from McMinnville through Forest Grove to
Vernonia and thence to Rainier where it
would use the Columbia River Bridge as a
link to Longview and Kelso. They call their
organization the Highway 99W Alternate As
sociation, and are plugging to have the pres
ent State No. 47 improved and designated as
an alternate on U.J5. 99 which would bypass
Portland..
A look at the road map will show that the
proposed route would save considerable mile
age, for the present 99W and 99E swing east
to 'Portland then northwesterly to Kelso.
Presumably the great majority of users of
Highway 99 have Portland as a destination
or a stopping-point, but others would be
glad to avoid the city. Admittedly the 99W
alternate is not in sight as a reality, but
eventually it may come into existence. A
straight line remains the shortest distance
between two points.

Jalbott Under Fire
After the lacing they took over the five
percenters, it is only to be expected that the
Democrats would exploit any chance to un
eovera "sticky" situation among Republican
office-holders. One has been projected in
h hHnr of Harold Talbott. Secretary of
the Air Force, because of his business asso- Name Embezzlement
ciation with Paul M. Mulligan & Co, a busi
ness engineering firm in which talbott is a
partner. When he appeared before the
Armed Service Committee considering his
nomination, Talbott said he had this connec
tion and would continue it, but would take
no profits from dealings with companies
whose business was predominantly with the
government on defense contracts.
Talbott'saidlie had endeavored to help the
company but had not used his position to in
fluence any' government contractor. Letters
from Talbott to industrialists were read in
which he sought consideration for Mulligan
cm business matters.
The issue becomes one of fact as to wheth-
S Talbott has abused his office for his own
nefit. There is, however, the broader ques
tion of propriety, whether a man in high
public office should participate personally in
business activities. If he is a man of prin
ciple he will be extra cautious not to use
his office as a business lever. On the other
hand, in a country where politics rarely is
allowed to become a career, one can hardly
be expected to sacrifice all his business in
terests and connections on the uncertain ten
ure of a political job. In this case we think
Talbott might have retained his partnership
on the terms related to the first- committee;
but he should have refrained from letter
; writing to plug for business.
The Statesman agrees with Mike Bradley
of the Corvallis G-T in complaining over the
appropriation of the name Lolo Pass to a
road around ML Hood. That belongs to the
old Lewis and Clark route over the Bitter
Roots. As Bradley writes in the G-T "Off
the Beat" column:
Opening of a public road across the south
face of Mt. Hood seems in the oning . . . ai
present it is called the Lolo Pass road ... I have
no quarrel with the road, but do wish someone
would think of another name for it ... If the
route is as scenic as it has been described, it
deserves something better than a second hand
name ... To most people familiar with north
west history, the Lolo Pass is in Idaho ... It
was the Indian trail followed by Lewis and Clark
across the rugged Bitterroots, and later figured
as the escape route of young Chief Joseph in his
battles with Gen. O. O. Howard ... It was
named, I have read, by an Indian who could not
pronounce Lewis ... I don't know how the Mt,
Hood Lolo Pass name originated, but there is
enough confusion in this crazy mixed up world
of ours over the duplication of names without
adding another . . . You'd think Portland (Ore
gon, that is) would take some action . . .

AFL-QO
Those who have sat opposite to union scale
committees in collective bargaining sessions
have watched with interest the "bargaining'
in progress between the AFL and the CIO
relative to their selection of a name for the
merged organization. The, older American
Federation of Labor insisted that its name
be retained, but the Congress of Industrial
Organization demanded some change it
didn't want to be just swallowed up in the
AFL. There it stood until the final bargain
ing session. There was still no give, so they
came out with a bifurcated name embracing
both the old ones: American Federation of
Labor and Congress of Industrial Organiza-.
tion. This saves the pride of each group, but
makes a big mouthful for common use. Hard

will have to try working in AFL-CIO in the

Russia May

By J. M. ROBERTS
Associated Press News Analyst
Russia's maneuvers at Geneva
on the German question, in addi
tion to producing general delay,
seem to be based on a desire to
approach it on a bilateral basis, as
was done with Austria.
The Russians seem to think they
might work out something with
West Germany, retaining some ad
vantages for themselves, which
Adenauer will support with the
Western powers.
First, they tried to arrange con
ferences with the West German
chancellor before the Geneva meet
ing. He sidestepped that. Instead,'
he pushed through his Parliament
the first bills beginning rearma
ment.
Now, when he does confer with
the Russians, he will have behind
him a token of parliamentary ap
proval of his determination to go
ahead with organization of an
army, something extremely im
portant to his bargaining position,
It is quite possible that in the
long run Russia may have her way
as to how a German settlement
should be approached. As the Four
Power foreign ministers arrange to
meet later on the subject, there is
no indication from Geneva that
they are any nearer an accord than
they have been for years. The situ

McKay Standv Against
McKenzie Power Plan
Puts Influence to Test
By A. ROBERT SMITH
Statesman Correspondent
WASHINGTON (Special) How much influence will the per
sonal opposition of Secretary of Interior Douglas McKay to the
proposed Beaver Marsh power project in the upper McKenzie River
area nave upon the federal Power Commission as it. debates'
whether to open this area to hydroelectric development?
That is a question being asked here by observers who note
that as the FPC begins consideration of the Beaver Marsh project
of Eugene Water and Electric Board, Secretary McKay has been
letting his personal opinion of
the project be known.
McKay is opposed on grounds

But the Interior Department
officially is not objecting to is

urged that fish protective devices
be employed by Eugene.
About 10 days ago McKay
wrote Sen. Richard L. Neuberger
(D-Ore.) about the project and
sent him the department's re
port, which the senator had re
quested. This past week McKay
was joined by Neuberger in
registering opposition to the $7
million project, which would gen
erate 30,000 KW.
"While the bureaus in the De

not be adversely affected by this

"I noticed, however, in the full

said. "I personally shall contin

A novel feature which we note in some of,
the Oregon country weeklies is a "farm of

farm buildings is printed, unidentified. The

This should stimulate community neighbor
liness. Editorial Comment
SALMON DEPLETION THREATENS
Boating, it is reported, is now the leading
participant sport in the United States. Improve
ments in boat building,, particularly with light
materials; solving the transportation problem,
coupled' with better roads; bigger and more
efficient outboard motors enable more people to
enjoy the salt water fishery. People have more
leisure time. Many fishermen, not interested in
stream or lake fishing, enjoy the coastal fishery.
All these conditions indicate that Oregon's
coastal area will continue its development' as a
playground.
There is only one discouraging prospect: the
' people of Oregon are lacking in vision as to
- what this coastal fishery means as an asset to
the state's economy. We can't have a coastal
recreational fishery without salmon. But the
people have -consistently refused to do anything
about the steadily diminishing salmon resource.
We are permitting our coastal streams to be
come depleted. Living in the past and unable
to visualize the future, we permit the continued
destruction of our salmon runs.
If the people of Oregon would actually look
at the sports fishery growing up along the coast,
and would study the sensational rate of increase,
then project the figures into the future, they
would demand immediate action to preserve this
most valuable resource. Roseburg News-Review

In 'Corruption'
Case Resigns
WASHINGTON UH Air Forca
Capt. Raymond Wool, involved in
an investigation of alleged corrup
tion in armed services purchasing,
has resigned his commission, the
Air Force announced Friday. . ,
It said Wool's resignation, ac
cepted "for the good of the serv
ice, amounts to dismissal of court
martial charges pending against
him but "in no wise handicaps" the
Justice Department in any possible
action against him.
It also said Wool's separations
from the service was "under con
ditions other than honorable" and
that this would bar him from vet
erans benefits to the same extent
as an dishonorable discharge re
sulting from a court martial con
viction.
Senators investigating Armed
Services clothing contracts re
ceived hearsay evidence in May
that Wool "got $50,000" for help
ing swing a 1953 contract for seven
million sailor caps to Harry Lev,
Chicago manufacturer.
Both Wool and Lev denied the
story, but Sen. McClellan (D-Ark),
chairman of the Senate investiga
tions subcommittee, asserted that
Lev had "failed" to disprove the
hearsay evidence. Wool admitted
during the inquiry that he filed
false income tax returns from 1951
to 1953. - -
Wool formerly headed the armed
forces clothing purchasing unit in
New York. He was transferred to
the Air Material Command at Day
ton, Ohio. . and restricted to the
base there after court martial pro
ceedings were started.
The Air Force charged him with

NO HELP FROM RUSSIA
To the Editor:
I was reading the other day
where even some people in this
country think the United States
isn't for world peace and hasn't
done its share towards preserv
ing world peace since World
"War II. Some even say that
Russia is doing more toward
.helping world peace than the
United States is.
You don't have to explain to
people like that, because the
record shows for itself. I. can
remember in 1946, when I went
to Poland (which was occupied
by Russia) as a member of an
UNRA team, we heard from
good sources that the supplies
the United States was shipping
to the people of Poland were
instead going into Russia: you
could sense even then that Rus
sia wasn't going to give us
much help in preserving world
peace.
Over the past 10 years since
the end of World War II, Rus
sia hasshowed us in many ways
she has no intention of keeping
the peace. In the UN she has
used her veto to kill every
measure that has tried to pass
for world peace; she has taken
over many countries by aggres
sion and deceit; she has pulled
the strings of many little wars
that have affected millions of
people.
Russia has tried to bait us
into open aggression by shoot
ing down our unarmed planes
and then turning down any
complaint we might send them.
but the United States has
proved by keeping its head, and
by actively helping any country
that asks for help, that it is for
preserving world peace by any
measure.
The United States has pulled
the world out of near starvation
since World War U, and has
set many a country back on its
feet, while not forcing any of
its way onto the country, Rus
sia has instead torn down many
countries and cause peace to be
something that may. never
come.
