program is not a gift from Uncle
Sam. It is fallacious to consider
the development of this energy

local prosperity. It is a great na

tools for creating new opportuni

Raver said. "This banking job is

Secretary Visits

Green Association while in Eu
gene Tuesday warned that forest
fire conditions are fast becoming
serious in Oregon.
Conditions will continue to
grow progressively worse until
general fall rains arrive, the ex
ecutive-secretary added. Loggers
are deserving of attention in Ore

for the record they have made so
far this season in preventine fires
in operations.
Faced with more 'than a three-
year slash accumulation in many
areas, it is a splendid record, he
said.

in the fields of traffic safety, juve

Leader in Education
Since the founding of the United
Nations Organization in 1945,
Judge Bosone has been a leader in
the field of public education on
world affairs. She was selected to
speak on ABC's Town Meeting
program here because of her
knowledge of the Unitdd Nations
Organization and the problems It
faces in maintaining international
peace.
In addition to active public ser
vice career, Judge Bosone, who is
a widow, has put her daughter,
now 22, through college.
Two additional speakers for the
program will be announced this
week, the sponsoring council re
ported Wednesday.
Free Tickets
Free tickets to the broadcast
may be had at most downtown
business houses, or by sending a
self-addressed stamped envelope
to The Eugene Council on World
Affairs, 27 E. Broadway.
Glenn Gregory, acting chairman
of the council, reported that most
of the necessary funds for bring
ing the broadcast to Eugene had
been .raised, and said that the pro
gram has been made possible by
hundreds of contributions from
housewives, businessmen, indivi
duals and organizations who
wanted to help bring Eugene's
message for peace to the public's
attention.

the Berlin crisis can be settled
before It reached the point of
open fighting.
They do not, however, dis
guise their concern that It might
lead to war.
Their determination is that if
there is to be shooting the blame
must rest upon Russia and not
upon the western powers.
As one informant put it: ''If the
Russians want a war at this time
they can get it, but they will have
to bring it about themselves."

when a new French government ic .

foreign policy which the Schuman
administration had followed-
policy of full cooperation with the 1
United States and Britain.
One of the dangers which top
Washington officials hope to
avoid aa the developments of
the next few weeks unfold is a
growth of hysttrria in the West
over the possibility of an open
conflict with Russia.
These authorities declare that
the United States must reject two
extremes of action appeasement
on one hand and excessive bellig

Both President Truman and Sec
retary of State Marshall have re
peatedly called in the past for the
American people to keep cool.

Congress has decreed that WAA

So Wednesday administrator

it would lake only 18 or 20 years.
