Vetoes Invasion of Power The Statesman commend President Eisen hower for his veto of the two billion dollar military construction bill. Ai passed, the bill tied strings to the Defense department on the development of the Taloi guided missile which the Navy has been working on. Ac cording to the language of the bill the appro priation relating to the Air Force's guided missile program would not become effective "until" the secretary of defense ahall have come into agreement with the Armed Serv ices committees of the Senate and House" with respect to the use of the Taloi missiles. President Eisenhower returned the bill with out his signature, citing this provision as a violation of the fundamental principle of aeparation of powers. As we have pointed out before, commit tees of the Congress (and of our State Legis lature) have been encroaching on adminis trative power by tying such strings to bills. This time the string was apparent in the very language of the bill. At other times ' there may be a aide letter. Thus Bonneville Power Administration scrapped its extension of a transmission line to Klamath . Falls on the basis of a letter from a House or Senate subcommittee, In Oregon, the emergency board persists in exercising unconstitutional powers with respect to spending of appro priated funds. i We are glad President Eisenhower rejected this bill, and wish state administrative offi cials would resist similar legislative encroach ments. The President's veto accomplished re sults, for the bill is being redrafted promptly without the, offending provision. The legisla tive body can write laws, but its duty and its responsibility end when the law is passed. State Board of Agriculture The farmers are -busy harvesting their crops. Congress has disposed of farm legis lation. The weather Is hot. and it seems quite an inappropriate time to discuss Marshall Dana's proposal to abolish the State Board of Agriculture or else 'give it more powers such as to designate the director of agricul ture. (In . weather like this the board itself would probably favor the former step.) At its origin in 1S31 the State Board of Agriculture was made advisory In character. Creation of the department by consolidating several previously Independent agencies was one of the reforms of the Julius Meier ad ministration. Complaint was heard from the first that the board, representing various seg ments of agriculture, lacked power. About the only real authority given it was when admin istration of the Jrfilk Price Control Act was wished onto it, and a public member (Dana) appointed. When milk price-control was re pealed this lone power was terminated. We believe the department is getting along very well a Jt Is. It is primarily a regulatory body 'and' so lends itself well to single ad ministrative type ef organization. It probably would function all right if the board made the appointment rather than the governor, but not any better. The board fills a usetul purpose as an advisory body, though it could - be abolished without serious damage to the functioning of the department. President Eisenhower has called on Repub lican leaders in Congress to make a "last ditch" effort to revive the school aid bill. The - call comes too late; the last ditch has been flooded out. Republicans to Try Electronic Campaign While Demos Rely on Whistle-Stopping lv JOSEPH AND STEWARD ALSOP WASHINGTON - Is television a new and revolutionary polill eal instrument, destined to' change radically and (orever the style ef the, American political campaign? Or is it just another medium, among many, for reach ing the voters? ... The coming election ought to give a (air idea of the answers to these ques tions, simply be cause the Repub- , liran campaign : strategists are "l proceeding J the first as sumption, and the Democrats a m ' - r Tki Hmihll. ran campaign will be pitched directly at the viewers ol the nation's 40 million television seta. The pilch will start in earnest at the Republican convention in Ean Francisco. Republican Chair man Lea Hall and Campaign Di rector Robert Humphreys have recruited Hollywood actor George Murphyo direct the convention, much as a Hollywood director directs a motion picture. Murphy's problem Is more complicated, of course. His main object is to keep the television viewers glued to their sets, de spite a total lack of suspense about the out come, right up to the grand climax of the rresldcnt'a ac ceptance speech. To that end, he hopes to treat the television viewers , to an orderly and en tertaining spec tacle, rather Mrwart A lamp than a continuing mob scene. Put eaavealiea Olesal. r -rb ehee-Uke la ether to Ore., Thurs., July 19, '58 ' Ifi Not a Nice Thought la there going to be another war? The good ''citizens of Ludington, Mich., undoubtedly, , would hasten to say their latest action consti ' tuted no prediction of such. They would say they are Just facing practicality, reality or whatever it is that compels us to take off the rose-colored glasses when looking into the crystal ball. , The Ludington (Mason County) Veterans' Council is planning a six-sided granite memo rial column. One side will have an inscrip tion. Each of four other aides will have en graved the names of Mason County veterans who died in major hostilities one side for i each of the World Wars, one for the Spanish American conflict and one for the Korean "police action." The sixth? Chairman Robert Christiansen says, 'This is a permanent thing and we must be prepared for the future." We hope the Ludington memorial's sixth side stays blank for a long time. We hope, : also, that there is never any need for a sev : enth side, or sn eighth, or ninth. Permanency in the realm of human relations is an eter nally long time. But if the stark bareness of ' that sixth side constitutes a permanent re ' minder of what can happen it will serve a r real purpose, even though it seems to carry the Scout motto of "Be Prepared" almost to the point of ghoulishness.' We'll be glad when conditions in Europe settle down so American soldiers can come home and stay home. Considerable friction arises between troops and the populace where they are stationed. Discipline can't be main tained strictly off the bases and individuals or .groups of soldiers get into trouble, some times very serious trouble. Jealousies arise when the Americans win favors of resident girls, and clashes with local swains occur. In Germany, the Army has imposed a curfew in an effort to curb "unfortunate incidents" involving soldiers and Cermans (which have included killings and rape). The officers should exert themselves to the utmost to pre serve order and good relations, and the men themselves should realize they are American ambassadors. Even so, It will be a hapDy day all around when it becomes safe to pull serv icemen out of these foreign stations. Matyas Rakosi, Red boss of Hungary, has resigned as first secretary of the Communist Party. He gave age and poor health as his reason, but his probable ailment is falling out of favor. The wheel in Hungary has done another turn. Under Malenkov, Premier Nagy was top man, Ratysi down. Malenkov out. Nagy followed. Now Rakosi has been dropped down the chute, perhaps a sacrifice, as was Molotov, to Marshal Tito's conditions for re union with Moscow. A great deal of reshuf fling is in progress through the Communist world. More heads may be looped off in the scramble for power, and eventually the "cult of personality" may get another turn as some new dictator gathers and holds the reins of power. The Washington clothier who circularized congressmen and urged them to stock up with lightweight .clothing for attending the ' GOP convention because San Francisco in August is "a hot and humid city" certainly drew the horse laugh from California's Native Sons. For San Francisco in August is neither hot nor humid. The Pacific Ocean acts as the air conditioner, laving over the city chilly summer fogs, which city dwellers often seek escape from. The clothier must have been stuck with a Palm Beach surplus for which Congress has provided no price support. The Harvey Company has announced com pletion of financial arrangements to assure construction of a huge aluminum plant at The Dalles. Whether the firm's resurgence of ac tivity m Oregon will lead Executive Vice President Lawrence Harvey to renew his in terest in Salem TV Channel 24 remains to be seen. There are still some TV sets, pur chased while Harvey was negotiating for transmitter sites here, with special adapters for that channel.

But when she and her husband, Harold Larsen. arrived there, they 'found three sheep missing from the trailer. They sought the sheep ' on the way home, but couldn't find them. When they didn't come home wagging their tails behind them Harold set out to search again. He finally found two near a grain field near Mt. Angel. And the next day he found the other one, near the same place. Seems the sheep had slipped through a jiole in the maving trailer. Moved by both Biblical and current market quotations, Harold rejoiced a little when he found the last lost sheep ... o Wbea the Salem Lions Club went ta the dogs 20 years ago, it did a good job. From a doggone small beginning the club's annual dag show has grows so fait that the ZOtb annual show at the State Fairgrounds Sunday will be the second largest in the Pacific Northwest this year. Dog fancier the nation aver recogalie the Salem show as one of the finest. "Purpose of these shows," says Harry Willrtt, guide-dog ef the shows since their beginning, "is to improve the breeds of dogs. If these shows suddenly were ta be eliminated. Inside ef 21 years yau'd have nothing but mongrels." A nasty thought for letter carriers, anyway ... Although the winning entries get nothing but trophies, ribbons and prestige, the judges make pretty good money. One of the judges at the Sunday show here, Jerome Halle of Cleveland, will receive a $600 fee. Several other judges will get $500 each. But because these judges will work a similar show in Portland on Saturday, half their fees will be paid by the Portland group. For Halle, a department store owner, judging dog shows is a profitable hobby. But it's a full time deal with another judge, Mrs. W. C. Edmiston of Ralston, Neb. Selwyn Harris of New York is one of the nation's top dog . show judges and makes a good living at it . . .

Should government build a high dam, or should private power' construct three lower dams in the same stretch of canyon? The answer calls for a comprehensive study in hydro graphy, which probably has been completed. The ruth dam has marked advantages over multiple con struction as we are told by school boy geometry. The same juvenile authority says that the hitch dam would cost much more than all thnee lower dams. Is the super iority in potential service worth the cost? Congress has the responsi bility of derision, but must weigh carefully between com petent engineers who, for some reason, differ in their appraisal of long range values.

CLARENCE GILAtORE, Oregon Slate Hospital. Jp 3HEJ3E nTOiTm i Continues from page 1) vely few fishermen and campers who wanted to pene trate the wilderness. Now "mul tiple use" has hit the forests with a bang. Over 76 per rent of the stand of old growth timber is now under federal administra tion, chiefly in the national for ests. With the reduction in priv ately owned timber the demand for timber from federal forests increases. This, calls for selling plans and conditions, for notices of sale and contracts and check- ing on contractor performance. Access roads are a necessity since today's log transportation from the woods is by motor truck. Appropriated funds are not sufficient so sales contracts are arranged in which the suc cessful bidder constructs the roads. These are built to good specifications 18 inches of crushed rock on a grade laid with adequate drainage. The Willamette district has a thou sand miles of roads and about a hundred more are added each year. The road system is the key to successful forest management. Not only docs the timber crop come out over the roads, but after that they provide access for replanting, for fire suppres sion and of course for extensions for additional cuttings. Road sys prime importance, both for eCon tent planning is therefore of omy of the timber haul and for future management uses. Another use whose dimensions are growing is recreation. At all the camp spots we saw campers and picnickers, sometimes in considerable numbers. On week-! ends and holidays people swarm ' to these forest recesses by j stream or lakeshore to "get away from it all." In this, con- j flicts over resource use arise, the latest being the one over diversion of waters of the Cppcr McKenzie for power generation by the Eugene Water and Elec tric Board. We stopped again at. Clear Lake and at the falls in the McKenzie just below Saha lie and Koosah and rejoiced that the people of Euffene iiatt . voted down the bond issue (or the power project. One has only lo visit Sahalip Kails to join in the prayer that they will never be molested. Here the consider able flow of the I'pper McKenzie - seems to leap over the rock rim to fall in a tumult of spray and . noise into the pool below. A proposed redrawing of the line of the Three Sisters Wilder ness area has also provoked con troversy. A hearing on this has been held and the decision rests with the Department of Agricul ture. Supervisor Aufderheide has set up a special project for a study of land use. Mapping now is be ing done in the section from Fish Lake past Clear Lake and down to the turn in the river at Bel knap Sprinps. The bureau, of public roads is building a new highway between the Santiam Highway and the McKenzie right along this route, so planning for the increased use by recreation ists is timely; In general the plana call for leaving forest cor ridors as screens along the high ways, to' open' up scenic vistas and to establish a sufficient number of picnic and camping spots for public convenience. The big handicap here is lack of funds, for they come only through congressional appropri ation. Numerous bills have been offered to provide more money. Sen. Neuberger has one to au thorize a study of the suhiect. The forest service itself plans to make such a study following somewhat the pattern of the Na- tional Parks service which came up with its "Mission 66" pro gram. One thing I want to report and that is, the awareness of the for est service to the importance of reforestation. We saw many cut over tracts where the new growth is evident in ample vol- ume. The great problem is how to renew the stands on soulh slopes. Experimentation indi cates that soil temperature is an important determining factor. When temperatures get to 120 and above, the mortality among seedlings is heavy. We saw some experimental plats in the II. J. Andrews experimental forest in the McKenzie district where tem peratures and soil cover types are under study the cooler the cover the belter chance the seed lings have for survival. Incident-, ally foresters over Western Ore gon are happy this year because there is a fine crop of cones on the conifers. This will permit ai big harvest of seeds for future' pointings. In this same experimental for est studies are being made on stream runoff both as lo quantity and siltation where foresUacut tings are niade. The harvest pat tern in the national forest now is by staggered settings or patch es. This system has many ad vantages, helping to confine tires and giving some hrnefil from natural reforestation, also help ing to conserve moisture for slower runoff. All snags are felled under the cutting contracts and slashings are burned to re duce fire damage. Receding or replanting is done then, Pressures, will, Increase on these forests both for timber fur hungry saws and for spots sacred for recreation. Bolh purposes are laudable.- One must not shut out the other, and under re-, sponsible management need not. The forest administration needs putflic support in its effort lo balance these pressures and lo serve tn the maximum degree all the legitimate demands In he made, nn our forest land-water resource! under its cars.
