High Cost of Lobbying
The National Association of Real Estate
Boards passed the National Association of
Electric Companies in their reported dis
bursement for lobbying in Washington in
1955. The real estatert pungled up $131,055
which topped the Reddy Kilowatt boys by
$16,170. Total reported lobbyini outlay by
h 1(1 films mnnrli fnr lQS., vii H 385 843.
at compared with $4,182,127 for 1954. Influ
encing legislation Is hit by the high cost of
living, which in Washington is pushed up
by the bills for drinks.
Do not bundle all the lobbyists together as
the outriders of boodle and corruption. Up
lift has its servants as do labor organizations
and project promoters. Among 'the last -named
was the Upper Colorado River Crasi
Roots, Inc., which spent $68,623 and got re
turns on the investment when the bill for
the huge project was enacted this year.
Who do the lobbying? Among others, ex
tnembers of the Senate and House. Congress
ional Quarterly did a head count of these
"exes" and found that 68 of them are listed
among the 4,216 individuals and organiza
tions registered under the lobbying law.
"Potomac fever" has gripped them, and if
they can latch onto a tweet payroll, they
just do not return to Secaucus. Most of the
retired legislator! combine free-lance lobby
ing with a law practice or other occupation.
One former congressman registered for 43
groups since 1947; many have more than ten
registrations, among them ex-Sen. Scott W.
Lucas of Illinois, ex-Sen. James P. Kem of
Missouri and ex-Rep. J. Hardin Peterson of
Florida.
;t The "children of light" are quite as active
.In lobbying at the "children of darkness."
Ex-Rep. Clyde T. Ellis It general manager of
the National Rural Electric Cooperative asso
ciation (the REAs), and Ex-Rep. Jerry Voor
his who lost his California teat to Richard
Nixon back in 1946, is executive director of
the Cooperative League of the USA. - ,
Former members have one privilege which
helps get them assignments. They have the
privilege of going into cloakrooms and onto
the floor of the House and Senate. This en
ables them to rub noses with present mem-
' 1- , 1-1 . - 1 1 .... w .tin.. tk-W
e. concerned with, and turn on heat for tupi
port it it is needed.
No use to deplore lobbying. It if Just part
of the "democratic procesa." The chore it to
' keep it open and aboveboard. As for the em-
ployment of former members of Congresi for
' lobbying, they must eat, and with liberal x
. pense accounts tome of them may eat higher
' on the hog than when they were memberi
and had to entertain delegationi from their
home "dcestricks."
Routing Highway 20
The recommendation of the Chamber of
Commerce highway committee that ah effort
be made to reroute U. S. highway 20 through
Salem drew a counter-blast from Albany as
might have been expected. Present routing
for the highway is from Santiam pass via
Lebanon, Albany, and Corvallis to Newport.
The Democrat-Herald accuses Salem of "go
ing out after the heritages of Llnny Benton -and
Lincoln counties." It offers this cold
comment:
"This plan adds support to the raiher gener
al opinion throughout the state that Salem is a
bit greedy. Already profiting hugely at the ex
pense of the rest of the state through location
of public institutions there, Salem Is constantly
reaching out after still greater profit from pub
lic sources, you hear all around."
We hadn't been hearing it, but perhaps our
hearing is less sharp than formerly.
For our part, we doubt if the number, of
tourists sticking to Highway 20 is big enough
to quarrel about. Just how many start in the.
East or Midwest and hug Highway 20 across
the continent to the shore of the Pacific at
Newport? Probably very few. Usually they
have a general routing selected, with specific
points for turnouts or for destination. Those
who reach the summit of the Cascades at
Santiam Pass have a choice to go on to Al
bany, and Newport or to Salem, just as they
have at Sisters a choice of coming this way
or going over McKenzie. Pass to Eugene.
The Statesman isn't favorably impressed
with the recommendation of the local high-
way committee because it thinks the chance
for changing the routing is slim and the .need
for it small. It favort "peaceful coexistence"
with Albany and Corvallis.
Endorsement for Justice Luxk
While The Statesman's "Political Parade"
is held free from staff editing, we do not
want it to "become a vehicle for false or er
roneous statements. The Monday contribu
tion in behalf of L. B. Sandblast, who is a
candidate for Position No. 5 on the Supreme
Court, contains, comment which should be
corrected. Sandblast wrote:
"For example the average yearly opinion per
judge has been up to about 46. The present oc
cupant of Position No. S averaged 17 decisions
in the past two years."
Note the weasel wording "has been up
about 46." The record shows in 1954 the av
erage number of opinions written per judge
wat 27.6 and in 1955 23.86. Justice Hall S.
Lusk, who it the incumbent of Position No.
8 wrote 25 opinions in 1954 and 27 in 1955.
The Sandblast aspersion it thus refuted.
No informed person takes seriously the
candidacy of Sandblast, a chronic, unsuccess
ful candidate for office. Judge Lusk't fame
tests not on the number of opinions he has
written but on the high quality of hit opin
ions and on his able counsel in interpreting
th 1-w in cases where he does not write the
court'i opinion. Universally respected for

The money wat peddled at campaign con
tributions, but the money-spreaders took
paint to see that it went where senators were
tupporting the bill favored by the big oil
companies. It wat pretty shabby business,
and the exposure helped to spotlight the
mechanics of contributing to campaigns. One
can't help wondering, however, if the pol

From President to Spare Him From Worry
in
1. Stewart Alaa
By STEWART ALSOff
WASHINGTON Are President
Eisenhower's subordinates so
eager to protect him from worry
and strain that matters of great
international Importance are con-
e e a I e d from
him. or their
significance ob
scured? Thit question
it prompted by
the President's
answers to cer
tain questions at
his most recent
prest confer
ence. Was twice
asked whether
'C he and Prime Minister Anthony
Eden had been In recent com
' munication about the Middle
- Eastern crisis. Ha wat tpecifl-,
. cally asked whether Eden had
recently tent him an important
, message stressing the gravity
of the crisis, and the urgent
. need for taking action to bead
off the danger. . . ,
The President seemed honestly
puzzled by the questions. Prime
' Minister Eden and he quite often
i exchanged messages, he said,
: and they often contain reference!
. to the Middle East. But, he said,
' "I am certain tt is no recent
thing they must be talking
; about." He was rare he said,
that there had been no message
from Eden since "some time be
fore" he went to White Sulphur
Springi on March 24th.
- He speculated that perhaps
"They are talking about a re-
cent message I haven't received
yet." Overall, he left the Wrong
: impression that there had been
' no new, urgent, or important
views expressed by Prime Min
ister Eden on the Middle Eastern
crisis. Asked whether the Brit
ish had been pressing the Admin
istration to take a firmer line
In the Middle East, the President
replied: "Well, if they have, they
haven't pressed me."
These Presidential responses
art mysterious. The qoestioM
were largely prompted by a re
port, whirh first appeared a week
ago la thit space in a dlspairh
from London, that Eden had sent
n grave message to the President
stressing the growing danger In
the Middle East, and the argent
need for batle Joint policy do
ehrioM for dealing with the crisis.
This report was confirmed and
elaborated la subsequent dis
patches la the British prest and
elsewhere.
The facts, which are Indisputa
ble, are as follows: About two
weeks ago a high official of the
American Embassy in London
was summoned to hear the views
of Trime Minister Eden. Grave- ,
ly and even frimly, the Prime
Minister held forth at length
about the danger in the Middle
East and the pressing need for
joint decisions and action by the
Anglo-American allies.
Eden Indicated that be bad
called In the American official
to make sure that the President
knew his views of the situation.
The American was naturally Im
pressed by tha responsibility In
volved la reporting a statement
to grave at the Prime Minis
ter's. Ho therefore asked Kdea't
permission it quote nun ver
batim on certain points, to as
sure absolute aeenraey. Edra
thereupon himself wrote eat a
menace, clearly Intended tor the
President, which Included the
warning that major decisions
might be not just a matter of
days, but even a matter of hours.
Such are the facts. In view of
these facts, there seem to be
only three ways of explaining the
President's answers to his press
conference questions.
One theoretical explanation It
that the President, for diplomatic
or other reasons, was being dis
ingenuous. But this explanation

hard U believe that even the
State Department, could lose,
track of an extremely Important
message on n major International
crisis from the British Prime
Minister, in which the Prime
Minister himself laid heavy em
phasis an the hour-by-hour urg
enry of the crisis.
The only other conceivable ex
planation is that the message
from Eden was not transmitted
to the President at all. or trans
mitted in such a way that its sig
nificance was wholly obscured.
This seems the most likely ex- -planation.
It is also the most
disturbing.
Even before the President's
heart attack, there was a strong
tendency te go to great Irnglhs
to spare him unnecessary worry.
Since the attack, the tendency
has been greatly strengthened.

Nonbusiness interest Deductions
The following Information
was Issued by District Director
R. C. Oranquist of the Internal
Revenue Service to taxpayers
who itemize deductions on page
2 of Form 1040 for 1955.
, Interest on personal indebted
ness is deductible, generally
speaking, but only according to
very definite rules.
One of the most commn cases
of deductible interest is that of
Interest paid by a taxpayer on
a mortgage on his home. Month
ly mortgage payments usually
contain several components. The
Interest component is deduct
ible. Taxpayers should obtain t
ttatement from the mortgage
holder in order' to determine
the exact amount of interest
paid during the taxable year.
Other common types of psy
mentt which include deductible '
interest are". Judgments, Delin
quent tax payments. Personal
loans, Installment purchases.
'''
The 1954 Code made one lm-'
portant change in the allow
ance, of interest as t deduction
on the tax return. The new law
provides a deduction for inter
est paid for purchasing personal
property (such as automobiles,
radios, television etc., etc.) on
the installment plan where the
interest charges are not sep
arately stated from other car
rying charges. This deduction it
equal to V of the average un
paid monthly balance under the
. contract, but the interest de-
durtion may not exceed the por
tion of the total carrying
charges attributable to the tax
able year. The new deduction
applies to installment payments
made after December 81, 1953,
even if the purchase wat madt
in a previous year.
a a
Installment purchases are
a fixed sum plus certain carry
ing charges, It it usually known
UH '
that these separate carrying
charges contain Interest and
other charges, such as service
charge., and ..credit charge. .For
years 'beginning after Decem
ber 31. 1953, an Individual will
be allowed to deduct an amount
for interest, if he has chosen to
itemize of all his allowable de
ductions on page 2 of Form
1040, even tf the exact amount
of interest being paid in the In
stallment is not known. If the
exact amount of interest can be
determined, then that amount
must be deducted as in prior
years.
Although the new law pro
vides as an interest deduction
6 of the average monthly un
paid balance, the new 6 rate
is intended at an annual rate.
Therefore, as in the following
example, the total of the unpaid
monthly balances Is always di
vided by 12 to get the average
balance. This process it true
even if fewer than 12 payments
are made in any single year.
Example ef Computing . .
Deduction
On January 10, 1959, A pur
chased "a home freezer for $254.
After a down payment of $50,
the balance, including a stated
carrying charge of $20, was to
be paid in 18 monthly install
ments of $14 each, on the 10th
day of each month commencing
with February. Assuming that
A is a cash-basis, calendar-year
taxpayer and that no other in
stallment purchases were made
in 1954, the portion of the car
rying charges deductible as in
terest is computed as follows:

reference. This committee intends
to support the district budget.
One of its spokesmen said: "All
of us see defects in the school
system, but we feel that defeat
ing the budget is not the way to
correct these deficiencies."
The significance of this news
lies in the attack on "state stand
ards" with mounting taxes the
needle to stir the rebellion. In
volved also is a recurring demand
that schools teach the "funda
mentals." They are accused now
of spending too much time on
frills. The ' recent flareup over
the Flesch book, "Why Johnny
Can't Read" is another sign of
lack of confidence in the school
system.
This tgitation seems to be a
form of nostalgia, a homesick
ness for the past, but actually;
for a past that never was. The
schools of old failed to teach all
their students to read and to
spell and to do arithmetic. They
struggled with meagre facilities,
with poorly trained teachers and
the wonder is they did as well as
they did. Comparative studies
that are accurately based usually
show a higher level of accom
plishment today than in the past.
Much of the progress in our
schools has been due to state
supervision, state encouragement
and sometimes to state compul
sion. What are the state standards
that arc complained of? For one
thing, the school plant must be
acceptable; but the supervisory
authorities have exercised broad
tolerance in . this respect, con
sidering the financial ability of
the district as well as the need
for an adequate and comfortable
school plant. In the case of new
buildings local enthusiasms or de
sires usually carry well beyond
any requirement of the state de
partment of education.
1 The State Board of Education
under authority of law does ap
prove the general course of study,
but generous latitude is allowed
local districts. The extension of
courses beyond the three-Rs is
due to the necessity of a broader
education in this complex society.
The state is the authority gov
erning certification of teachers.
But surely the Roseburg rebels
are not proposing that this be
, abandoned. Fundamental to good
teacher is good preparation of
teachers. That Job is being done
better all the time.
Our schools are by no means
perfect school people are first
to admit that. But the deficien
cies are not state-imposed. On
any valid evaluation, our schools
will rank high when one considers
the conditions under which they
operate: universal compulsory at
tendance to age 18 and the gear
ing of progress to a relatively
low average.

Total monthly unpaid
balances . fl.tSyX)
To arrive at the average un
paid balance for 1933, divide the
$1.(94 by 12 months, which re
- suits In the average unpaid bal
ance being $141.17 and multiply
this by 6 which is the rate pre
scribed by the 1954 law, and the
result is the interest of $8.47 to
be taken as a deduction on page
2 of Form 1040.
"
The new law states that the
portion of the carrying charge
deductible at interest cannot ex
ceed the total carrying charges
allocable to the taxable year. In
order to see if this limitation
would apply to the above exam
ple, take the total carrying
charges of $20 and divide by 16,
which would result in $1.25 per
month; then take the total of the
months involved which are
February through December, or
11 months and multiply by $1.23
per month which results in $13.75
the amount of carrying charges
allocable to the taxable year.
Since the regular computation re
sults in a deduction of $8.47
which is less than the limitation
figure of $13.73, the individual
may deduct the full $8.47.
County Roads
In Woodburn
Area Named
Four county roads in the Wood
burn area were given new official
names at Monday's session ef
Marian County Court.-..
County Road 530, an easterly
extension of Lincoln St. In Wood
burn, became East Lincoln Road.
It was formerly known at Jones
Road in the county records.
County Road 534, an easterly
extension of Hardcastle Avenue in
Woodburn, became Hardcastle
Road. It was formerly known on
the county records by four differ
ent names: Becker, Cooley, King,
and W likens road.' -
The road beginning at Market
Road 57 (County Line Road), ex
tending southwest to the newly
named Hardcastle Road, became
Cooley Road.
A short road, beginning at the
L. Erickson property and extend
ing east from Cooley Road, be
came Meadow Lane.
Re-naming of the roads wat to
facilitate plans for mounted mail
routes out of the Woodburn post
office.
Other business conducted by
court members' Included tn auth
orization to make a final payment
of $18,008 to the Stevenson Rock
Productt Company for the '32.154
cubic yards of crushed rock It had
furnished the county. $12,220 hat
already been paid on the order. '
Court members decided the
county was not obligated to act
on a request for drainage Im
provements from two residents in
the vicinity of Claggett Creek and
Chemawa Road. It wat decided
that poor drainage in the area did
not affect county roads and. there

Before you buy that car, just tell me on the phone the total cons
of the car, the financing and the insurance. Within five minutes
I'll call you back and tell you what it will cost you to buy, finance,
and insure the same car through my Bank Plan. Chances are, for
exactly the same deal, it'll be $100 lessl I know it's hard to believe
but it's worth a phone call, isn't it? Tktn is n tbliatio.
