Report on Off-Street Parking , Although Eugene was one of the first cities in the country to talk of off-street part ing, it is far behind the- proqesslort in pro viding such facilities. Springfield bid? fair o beat Eugpne to the punch with jts excel lent plan for a McKenzie highway "cutoff" t four-lane), paralleling the 3-P. piain line a few hundred feet south of Main Street. The space between the new highway and the rear of Main Street business properties would become a municipal parking faeility, ', Acquisition' of a large strip of land which Southern Pacific has been holding for indus trial use and cooperation of the State High way Department in relocation of the MePen zie highway through Springf jele are the two essentials ef the program. These detail? are being worked out. Springfield, with the help qf Howard Buford's planning office, has worked out a definite plan. Eugene lags. Therefore, it is interesting to read a recent bulletin of Public Administration Clearing . House which says: . Sixty-five cities last year opened new off - street parking facilities ta reduee downtown ! traffic congestion, according to the Internation al City Managers' Assn, , r Information gathered for the 1947 Municipal ' Yearbook further reveals that a total of 345 . cities out of 875 reporting now have one- or ; more off-street parking lots n operation, mark- ing a 63 per cent Increase over 1842 when only ,' 211 cities operated municipal efNstreet parking 1 '. facilities. - Four cities spent more than $50,000 each on new municipal parking lots last year Eau Claire, Wi.

About , 35 cities have placet) twO'tO-four hour limits ; on parking (n city.ewned lota, Fqr cities the Piae of Eugene, block clear ance is still the most economical plan for off street parking Garage utruotures or under ground facilities involve huge construction and operating costs which Eugene's farmer logger customers probably could not pay. Block clearance does not need to be "on the main drag" but on the margins of the busi ness area. Even so it involves great initial ?ost snd special problems of financing and. taxation. More than year ago, the Merchants Division of the Eugene Chamber of Com ijierce came to the conclusion that off street parking should be provided as ggon as pos sible for a minimum of 1.4Q0 vehicles (four to five blocks of clearance). They also recommended engineering studies as the basis of such a program. The 1947 legislation passed enabling acts which will greatly facil itate such undertakings. Of the many problems which crowd for money and attention, this is one of the most urgent. Why Argue With Russia f In this country, it is in the nature of things to stop and Investigate and adjudicate, f the big bully across the tracka is accused of beating up his little neighbor we hold an inquiry. Therefore the demand which our State Department has made on Russia in the matter of the' Communist seizure of Hungary is in the American pattern. It is not of much value except as another gesture, eomplished, We propose now to go In with a joint commission and see what has hap pened. The Russians and their Hungarian discipleg will undoubtedly show that the con version of . Hungary to Communism was merely "the will of the people", The fact that the will of the Hungarians is guided by Russian bayonets makes little difference. The bayonets are there and the answer will be: "Do you want to make something of it?" . Nobody wants war, and at the present time, war is not the remedy, But Russia her self wants Joans, materials, economic asgis tance, many things which we have to offer. Is it not possible to gay that we will simply stop dealing with Russia until she ehanges her tactics? Ah, but Russia may bolt the United Nations, just as she bolted the league years ago. Perhaps now is the time to have that happen. It will not be a calamity so long as the deer is left open for Russia or any other recalcitrant nation to return when willing to deal openly and fairly, Russia will yowl that she is being "en eircled" by a western bloc, Russia is brazen ly organizing her own European-Asiatic bloc. Today the economic weapon is potent. Tomorrow it may net be. Strong words are meaningless without strong measures to back them. WASHINGTON LETTER By PETER EDSON NEA Washington Correspondent Hoovers Separate Peace Idea WASHINGTON, June 13 (NEA) If Herbert Hoover's word shout making 9 separate peaee with Germany should become U, S. policy, prao tioaily every International big shot in the country will have to go op a diet pf eating his own words. What Hoover said was this: "We might even contemplate a separate peace with this govern ment (meaning the merged American and British zones of occupied Germany) If the next conference of foreign ministers does not succeed in more con structive policies." Official American statement? against any idea of 8 separate peace treaty with Germany are many. They have been made by Roosevelt, Truman, Hull, Byrnes, Vgndenberg, and Marshall. They have been incorporated in a number of official documents apd declarations made at Moscow, Teheran, London, Paris and Washington. They eo back over five years. Here are a few representative samples: in the Declaration of the Unitad Watinnc ! signed at Washington Jan. 1, 1942, "and subsequent ly signed by every one of the United Nations ex cept Argentina, appears the original statement gainst separate peace, geotien two reads: "Each government Pledges itself to co-ODerate with the governments signatory hereto and not to make a separata armistice or peace with the en emies." No Closed Corporation In the Declaration of Moscow, signed by Hull, Eden, Molotov, and Fog Ping'Sheiing, It was stated that "the governments of the United States pf America, the United Kingdom, Soviet Russia and China . . jointly declare: 1) That their united action, pledged for the prosecution of the War against their respective enemies, will be continued for the organization and maintenance of peace and security, 8) That those of them at war with a common enemy will act together in all matters re lating to the surrender and disarmament of the en emy. S) That they will take all measures deemed by them to be necessary to provide against apy violation of the terms Imposed upon the enemy." At the first Peace Conference In Paris on May 21, 1948, Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg summed tip the policy under which the Axis satellite treaties were drawn up by saying: "It is a policy whiph invites all the countries participating In the war. instead of a closed corporation of big powers-r-fo have a proper vojqe in the making of the treaties and the entering of the peace which results from the common victories which we all helped win. t ll S policy whieh wants a peoples' peace," In hli message to Congress last Jan, , Truman said: "Puring the long months ef debate on these (six Axis satellite) treaties, we have made it clear to all nations that the U. S. will net censent fo settlements at the expense of principles we regard as vital to a just and enduring peace. We have made Jt equally clear that we will not retreat to Isolationism. Our policies will be the same during forthcoming negotiations in Moscow on the German and Austrian treaties and during future conferences on the Japanese treaties." , . ;: v Requires An About-Face in Policy A week later in a speeoh at Cleveland Just be fore his retirement, , Secretary Byrnes said! "We must not let ourselves believe that peace can be made by any one treaty or series of treaties, or by any one resolution or series of resolutions. And we must not let ourselves believe that the struggle for peace is hopeless because we can't at once find way of reconciling all our differences." Secretary of State Marshall took up thip' theme In a statement at Moscow March IS, during the Council of Foreign Ministers meeting. "It is the view of the U. S. that when common objectives have been agreed Upon by the four occupying powers the absence of any agreement to imple mentation of these discusions, far from preventing one or mora of the occupvina nowers from rfnin what they can singly or jointly to advance these uMjDutiven, imposes on mom we opuga lion to do their utmost to achieve the maximum of progress in the direction to the eommon objective." In the light of all these statements. It would be necessary for the U. S. to make a complete change SOCIETY, WOMEN'S ORGANIZATIONS By ANN CONNEIX " " New Property Law Is Basis for Talk . To Business Women. Plfferences which will be brought about by passage pf the new " community property law were the basis of a talk given by L. L. Ray to Eugene Business and Professional Women's Club, Thursday noon. The ehange from the present rulings, bases' en old English fommen law, to the new community property law, based on Spanish law, while considered an advantage in making income tax returns, offers several puzzles in regard ta other matters, the speaker warned. Mainly, a wife's inheritance will be affected. Whereas new it is possible for a wife to inherit her husband's whole property without probate, if carried in the names of both, under the new ruling, unless foeclal provision is made otherwise she will receive hut half his estate, the other halt goes to his estate, and a probate being re quired. Attorneys are making a full study ef the matter, he stated. Mr. Ray was Introduced by Mrs. Floyd Horn, chairman for the day In place ef Mrs. Carmen Albert Olson.
