Millions for Highway Work . . .
From New Taxes
Everyone it licking hii chops at the pros
pect ef the millions which will toon roll in
from Uncle Sam to finance a speedup of
highway construction. Oregon will get an es
timated $26 million a year to be spent in mod
ernizing Highways 30 and 99, our only roads
which are part of the interstate-aystem. It
will get an estimated f 12 million additional
for us on other primary secondary and ur
ban highways and bridges. State funds will
supplement these grants so a big road pro
gram is in sight. Yum, yum!
Nobody should be fooled, however. We
arent getting this for nothing. The federal
gas tax goes up a tent a gallon. Then there
will te additional excise taxes on trucks, bus
es and on tires and retread rubber. For this
Is to be a pay-as-we-ride program. Taxes
which go for rosd construction and Improve
ment and maintenance are borne at lightly
as any tax burden. The sample we have had
of the freeway on 89 from here to Portland
has tasted good, and nearly all users will be
willing to pungle up the extra pennies to ex
tend these improvements. As for trucks and
buses, whatever they spend for this will real
1 be an investment, paying them good divi
dends in lowered operating expense and fast
er time In travel as a consequence of high
way modernitatlon.
. The ereatlv enlarged nroeram will have
economic effects, too. It will increase the
all for labor for road construction most
statea have their local programs ready to
hunch, and the demand for machinery in
highway construction will grow. The finan
cing will be slightly inflationary in its effect,
hut much less so than if deficit financing had
been Indulged in. As far as the individual is
concerned, a tax is a tax regardless of its pur--pose,
and the pennies diverted to this pro
grain will not be available for other spend
ing. - "
' In brief: the country is to get an accelera
tion In highway construction, and motor ve
hicle operators will psy for It.
County Sales -Taxes
. The last legislature in California passed a
law authorizing counties to levy a aales tax to
i maximum of one percent, in addition to the
three per cent state sales tax. At latest re
port 13 of the M counties in the state will
be collecting such a tax after July 1st.- In case
cities levy sales taxes, the limit remains one
per cent of which three-quarters is held by
the city and one-quarter goes to the county.
For cities which levy no sales tax and for un
incorporated territory the full county tax ap
plies. The estimate on collections for the first
year run as high as $83,000,000.
The state board of equalization collects
both sales taxes and remits to counties and
citiea their shires less deductions for admin
istration. in many states sales taxes ire collected by
cities either independently or in addition to
state aales taxes. Now in California, counties
are catching the sales tax bus for a relatively
painless ride to revenues. When Oregon
adopts a sales tax either it will have to share
revenues with local taxing units or see the
latter try to tap the same source.
Otto Strasser, former top Naxl who spent
20 years .in exile, chiefly in Canada, held a
gathering in Miltenberg, Bavaria, Sunday to
found a new political party, the German So
cial Union. Bavarian youth organizations,
however, stormed the rally and considerable
violence resulted. German youth want no re
. vival of Naziism, and want no new Adolf Hit
ler to strut across their stage.
Our National Parks
Western Oregon is a couple of days drive
from Yellowstone National Park but this area
'nonetheless shares with the rest-of the na
tion a pride in a major development begin
ning Monday in that great sanctuary.
The development initially comprises ground
breaking ceremonies for the new Canyon Vil
lage, a 130.000,000 partnership enterprise of
the federal government and the privately
owned Yellowstone Company. It is designed
to do away with the lodges, cabins, stores and
horse corrals which have been encroaching
on the nearby rim of the Grand Canyon of
the Yellowstone River between the spectacu
lar Upper and Lower Falls.
The increasing attention given our National
Parks is heartening indeed, and certainly it
is fitting that prime attention be given to the
largest (larger than Delaware and Rhode Is
land combined) and oldest (March 1, 1872) of
them ill. "Mission 66" for park improvements
is perhaps the best legacy of Douglas McKay's
term as Secretary of the Interior.
Under a long-range program in Yellow
' stone, whose guest list exceeds 1. 300.000 an
nually and is triple that of two decades ago,
cabin and hotel accommodations now 8.0O0)
and camping facilities (currently taking care
of 15.000) are to be almost doubled. The new
Canyon Village alone will take care of more
than 1.000 visitors for housing and meals, and
50 additional picnic areas are being opened.
Of paramount importance is the statement
of policy which National Park Service Direct
or Conrad L. Wirth set forth last week: "Any
plans to provide for more than 2.000.000 vis
itors to the park each year would be "mean
ingless unless we preserved the scenery, the
wildlife, the integrity of the wilderness and
those other natural resources which are the
reasons for the park's existence."
With that premise firmly established, we
welcome most heartily the renewal of devel
opments in all our National-Parks one of the
nation's greatest assets.

Editorial Comment
Gl'ARDTNG AGAINST SUBVERSIVES
The Supreme Court strengthened the Federal se
curity program when it held this week that em
ployees in non-sensitive jobs must not be dismissed
as "security risks."
Wt share the view of the S-to-S majority of the
court and believe that it has ruled wisely and
realistically. The overriding need ii to prevent
security abuses where national security is at stake
and that is exactly what the Supreme Court directs
the Administration to do under existing law.
There is ample authority and ample flexibility
available to the President, within the range of the
law and the decisions of the court, to safeguard
rigorously against the subversive in government. If
we thought otherwise we would be the first to urge
Congress to enlarge the statute under which the
executive is doing the job. But the Administration
has all of these powers in its hands:
It can peremptorily fire from any "sensitive"
position that is, a position giving access to classi
fied Information affecting the national safety any
Federal employee deemed to be a "security risk."
At its own discretion the Administration can at
any time extend the range of "sensitive positions."
In determining security risks it is free to utilize
confidential information without disclosing the
source, as the Supreme Court ruled S-to-t on
Monday.
And speaking of underhanded tricks,
the entire news staff (anyway, the male
members) were up in arms over a news
story In Thursday morning's Statesman.
"I.EVITTON, PA, An outspoken woman with
the Iron of self-reliance In her blood says that many a modern
American husband dies too soon because his wife saddles him
with endles household tasks." . . . Why was the news staff sore

So what we have bad in Oregon
is a decision by a slate agency
which is dedicated to a single
purpose: the conservation of fish
and enforcement of specilic laws
with reference thereto. This can
not be said to have been the action
by an unbiased body with power
to weigh all factors as to the use
values of the river at the Pelton
section. It is true that the Legis
lature at one session refused to
pass a bill favorable lo this con
struction but the elfect of this
was to leave the decision to ad
ministrative agencies.
In 155 following a report of an
interim committee the Legisla
ture created an agency which has
no attachment to a single interest
in water use. such as irrigation,
power, navigation, fishinn -- the
Water Hcsourcc.s Commission.
This commission now has auth
ority to resole conflicts out
waler use, within the Irame of
reference' laid down by the sta
tutes Some time ago 1 suggested
that I'GK reopen its case and
present it to this body. I'GK in
formed me that because of the
lapse of so mud) time, prompt
action was necessary or lis per
mit would expire and its very,
favorable contract on powerhouse
equipment would run out. There
fore it elected lo go ahead under
its FI'C license as upheld by the
L'. S. Supreme Court.
For this rukng the slate has
itself to blame. It took into federal
court the issue of whether FPC
power licenses superseded stale
water laws, and took a beating.
The highest court ruled that in
this particular case federal auth
ority prevailed because of pre
vious reservation of the lands, for
an Indian reservation on one side
and for power purposes in this
section. The state tested the law
and failed. It cannot now complain

ority validated by the highest
