UNDER "BIO TOP" AT SALEM
TT 1 tcarcel? an exoggeratlon to llkon the open
ing of a new adralnlatratlon and a new legislature
at Salem to a clrcua. The performance now be
ginning "under the bin top" It likely to fulfill the
conventional ballyhoo "icreateat In history".
In the new "ringmaster". Gen. Mnrtln. the atate
baa a man of unusual determination and firmness.
The assistant ringmasters, Messrs. Snell and Hoi
man have plenty of that quality known as "color".
And In the eomblnatlon of a Democratic House
and a Repnblloan BenaU, with Zimmerman and
Burke prowling ap and down, you hare a combina
tion whJob baa at least at many possibilities for ac
tion as one of those sets which combines In one
.cage a lot of Hons, tigers and panthers. . ,
Nor are the sideshows leeklng. For this year's
performance there will be more lobbyists than ever
and It you have any doubta that, the hand, can
be "quicker than the eye," Journey down to
8alem tome day and observe at cIosh range this
marvelous aggregation of sword swallowers, gro
' tesque giants, pigmies, snake charmers, bearded
ladles, and slickers who are expert at "shelj
games." . t
We have high hopes that Lane county's dele
gation to tblt session will Jurn out to be "strong
men". Wheelor and McCornack In the Senate;
Hill, Hyde, and Merrlam In the House are men of
xperlence and sense, with little amhltlon (fortu
nately) to be aerial artlata, tight rope walkers or
Jugglers. Though small In numbers the Lane coun
ty delegation la strategically placed In Salem.
'' Lane county has little to seek In Salem except
what la for the general welfare of the state. In
sighting for adequate funda for higher education
we are only fighting to preaerve state Institutions.
The problems of property tax relief, common achool
reorganisation, highway administration, -relief and
development In which we are specially Interested
art) statewide problems.
This session eannot be expected to do more
than lay the ground-work for cooperation with the
federal government In major social and economic
reforms tuch as Industrial Insurance and old age
peoslons and development of great systems of
flood control, power distribution,. Intorlor- naviga
tion and Irrigation. It will be a good sign If there
la a minimum of "law making" and a great deal
f attention to adjusting for economic and efficient
administration.
It la to be hoped that tha Eugene Chamber of
Commerce and the Lane County Chamber of
Commerce will make the usual setup of sr da
aommltteea to keep close contact with the lne
(legation. Only If this community Is prepared
lo twlng Intelligent and forceful opinion to their
tupport can the Lana membera be expected to
have full effectiveness on situations which will
arise, touching our Interests and atate Interests.
that cities can and should be planned. It Is so costly
to build without a plan.
After less than 90 years, Eugene Is aware of
handicaps which which have resulted from lack
of plan streets which are too narrow, Intersections
, which do not match, a city hall here, a courthouse
there, a postofflce blocks from the constantly
shifting center of the town. In those Interesting

slty, a few dollars could hsve acquired lands which
It will take many thousands to acquire now.
We can make a choice. We can get together
as reasonable people and decide upon some fairly
logical and reasonable plan for our town or we can
go on repeating the waste which Is the history of
towns. 4
It Is fairly reasonable to suppose that Eugene
will 'have 50,000 population before most, of us turn
It over to the coming generations. It It not Im
possible that business and Industry may spread with
more or less Intensity over the entire area between
13th avenue and the river. Lying "cat-a corner" In
the elbow of the river, Eugene will need not one
but many main arteries to conduct traffic acrose
town. Regular air transport Is at hand. New days
are at hand In rail transport and river transport
may be revived.
We need planning for an area which goes far
back- Into the hills beyond the present city limits
If we are to Invite Industries and home builders
with any assurance that values here are sound.
We can' make a beautiful city or an ugly city, a
modern city or one that Is obsolete. We can de
velop Eugene In orderly, business-like faHhlon or
we can Junk and re-Junk It. Which do you choose?

hand tht I'nlverslty for leadership and guidance on
cultural lines. More and more, however, the town

this sort, and tha Junior Symphony la one nf the
most Important movements of this kind.
For a long time to come, It will be nooossary
for Bugene to combine with the University In the
formation of lit major symphony orchestra. In
faet, this eomblnatlon of resources and talent should
always bt maintained. The development of orchos.
tra work among the younger people, mostly those
In their early teens Is merely a necessary step to
ward making a larger and more tystematlc contri
bution In players and In muelral Interest on the

Most of the youngsters who are now lahnrlng
earnestly with violin and flute and oboe and horn

LADY KNOWS HER WAY AROUND
A KTER giving ship captains, radio stations,- news
papers and millions of friendly admirers (Includ
ing one husband) a very uneasy morning while
flirting with Pacific fog bankt on the air road
from Honolulu to Oakland, Amelia (nee Earhart)
Putnam guides her trim red and gold monoplane to
another happy landing and steps out sweet and
smiling to take on new plaudits and new fame.
With a mob growing frantlo for a better view
of Ita heroine and policemen and airport officials
losing their hend, Amelia alone remains calm
enough to recognize the urgent demands of clamor
ing newspaper men. From tlje nerve-worn members
of the so-called Journalistic profession there should
go up paeant of gratitude for that smiling:
"Deadlines, of course; I know" (as she rebuked
the cops for trying to shield her from the Inter
viewers) "The police seem to think I'm frail; I'm
not an Invalid, you see".
There can be no doubt of It. Here Is a lady
who literally and figuratively "knows her way
around". Here la a lady who can drive full speed
through a ghostly curtain of cloud with an angry
ocean tossing thousands of feet below and calmly
"correct bearings" by chatting with radio operators
ashore and on ships below.
First person, male or female, over to mBke a
aolo flight from Hawaii to the mainland, first
woman ever to cross the Atlantic In a plane and
first in many astonishing things, she comes
straight to a "three point" landing, stops only to
powder her nose and Is ready physically and
spiritually for "ordeal by Interview".

ON OFFICIALS
UGE."E, Ore. (To the Editor)
I should like to express my ap
preciation and thnuks to Mr. R. S.
Hryson and to .Mr. Crowe for their,
faithful service in the interest of ray
self and my friends and neighbors
of Lane Couuty ami of Eugene. I never
met .Mr. Irowe but I have read of his
work, so I feel that I con, with pro
priety, express my personal thanks
for his work for our county. I have
met and worked with Mr. Bryson for
the betterment of the higher moral
welfare of Eugene unil 1 have been
present when he hnd to sentence of
fenders. From these ocensious and
other times I learned to deeply res
pect him. If he has been untrue at
any time only Our Master Knows, but

is a great difference between security
from adversity and - aggrandisement
for failure, there is a great difference
in having an equal share in production
and having several times at much as
other folks receive, for example the
entire value of all agricultural crops
in 1984 was. ?4.7S2,6'.'6.000, and now
the old folks who are hut twelve per
cent of the people wont over five
times as much for themselves as the
entire crop production of the United
States,
Mr, Green's assumption that fear
lurks behind my words that the plan

not succeed if it ' were enacted, and
the only reason that '.attack it is
because it generates a selfish "Mob

a great injury to the cause of Justice
