RECLAMATION CONGRESS
All who have observed the work of the Oregon reclamation
congress through the years should find satisfaction in the
organization's current condition and the recent broadening of
its field of interest. All were apparent at the annual meeting
concluded last Friday at Albany.
Originally formed for the promotion of the irrigation of j
arid lands in eastern Oregon the congress now interests itself i
in aspects of reclamation not covered by irrigation. Thus at!
Albany there was program discussion of reclamation by land
drainage, of reclamation by flood protection, of reclamation
by soil conservation as well as of reclamation by the applica
tion of water for the production of crops.
In this expansion of its interests the congress finds itself
concerned not only with the agriculture of eastern Oregon but
with that of southern Oregon and, in a very high degree, with
that of the Willamette valley. There, in the state's largest
potential farm area, some 2,500,000 acres or a region equal in
size to that of the Columbia basin project all phases of rec
lamation are important. As said by the Albany Democrat
Herald: There is a growing conviction among valley farmers that,
where water is readily available and can be applied without
excessive cost irrigation is not only practical but highly dosir
. able during the summer season. It has been found that some
crops that could not heretofore be grown at all in the Wil
lamette valley yield excellent returns under irrigation. Ladino
clover is an outstanding example.
Flood control and river bank protection are vital problems
here. Drainage is certainly coming to the front in this area.
All of these matters are pertinent to the Oregon Reclama
tion congress program which is now in session here. Time
was when such an assemblage would have been of interest
mainly on the Oregon plateau. Now, however we here in the
valley are hardly less concerned by the problems with which
the congress deals than are eastern Oregon operators. As
the west gains population its need for farm land grows. Rec
lamation, irrigation and erosion control fulfill this need. Or
ganization hastens desired development of agriculture as it
does for any other enterprise. Therefore the Oregon Recla
mation congress, whose scope of activities now encompasses
the entire state.
This enlargement of the field of the Oregon rec
lamation congress has taken place in the able administration
of its retiring president, E. E. Lage, of Hood River. Mr.
Lage is now succeeded by a Central Oregonian, Howard W.
Turner, of Madras, who is currently realizing the fulfillment
of a hope long held the development of the North unit.
We congratulate the congress and President Turner and
prophesy, under his administration, continued progress and
development.

Prolonged Strike
May Benefit Reds
Washington, Nov. 26 HPi The
coal strike had international re
percussions today some curious,
some grave and some disturbing
political.
Diplomatic quarters believed a
prolonged strike might strength
en communism in both Italy and
France.
Within 60 days, it was said, the
strike may bring iialian industry
to a standstill and just about
nullify all the gress that has
been made towa.d her economic
recovery.
If that should happen, these
quarters added, the resulting un
rest would almost certainly give
the Italian communists a big
boost.

Youths Reminded
Of Draft Signup
Even though youths under 19
years of age are still exempt
from being drafted, selective
service regulations require that
all young men register immedi
ately upon reaching their 18th
birthday.
Local selective service head
quarters stressed this fact to
day, noting that many young
men still do not realize that reg
istration continues to be required.
Failure to register under selec
tive service regulations still car
ries the same fine and jail pun
ishment as when the war was ac
tually in progress.
Announcement
After ten years of operating the Stil
well Service Center, in order to look
after other interests, I have now
turned the management of the business
to Fritz Horn, formerly operator of
Mission Service Station. Fritz will serve
you along with the other members of
the Service Center personnel: Ray
Shaver, Oscar Ketchum, Lee Stilwell
and Tommy Tonkin.
I wish to thank all our customers for
business of the past and solicit their
patronage for Fritz and the boys.

By Peter Kilsoti
NEA Yeihiii:tn l,rrveiHnd.nt I
Washington, Nov. 2ti It may
be near the end of the season for
the Truman team, nut for the
remaining games on the schedule
keep an eye on the new right
end. Secretary of commerce V.
Averell llarriman. Take note
It's right end he's playing, though
he replaced left end Henry Wal
lace when that great open field
runner got kicked off the squad
for breaking training.
llarriman Is a shy man, In spite
of his height, his reach ami his
weight as a big businessman. Wal
lace was shy too, hut in a differ
ent way. While Wallace could
be counted on to make the head
lines once a week with some spec
tacular play, llarriman avoids
publicity. Consequently, t h e
Washington sports writers have
not been giving him the attention
he deserves.
Since Harrlman appeared in the
first string line-up early in Octo
ber, lie has quietly been making
his weight felt. Reports leaking
from the secret workouts and
skull practice sessions of the
cabinet squad give Harrlman
credit for helping plan several of
the trick plays which have been
uncorked in recent scrimmages.
For one thing, a lot of the sup
port which cap Krug gets for his
off-tackle smashes against John
L. Lewis comes from Harrlman.
For another, Harriman's coach
ing has a lot of Influence with
halfbacks Byrnes and Snyder.
Harriman, as U. S. ambassador
scouted the London nnd Moscow
teams and knows how they play
the game. Harriman as a big and
successful capitalist in his own
right would naturally be listened
to by Snyder.
For a third thing. Harriman in
the nearly two months he has
been here has been carefully
studying his department of com
merce field, and one of these days
he will be ready to show just how
he is going to play his own posi
tion as right end in the cabinet
lineup.
In this connection, the National
Association of Manufacturers is
giving a lot of advance promotion
to Harriman's scheduled pep talk
opening the 51st annual congress
of American business at New
York, Dec. 4. say the N. A. M.
posters for this big game: "This
is your opportunity to find out
which way the department of
commerce is going to face from
here on."
This recalls what happened on
the same field when Henry Wal
lace played against the N. A. M.
a year ago. The night before Wal
lace had starred at a wild labor
mass meeting in Madison Square
Garden. The rafters rang with
shouts of "Wallace for president."
Next morning Wallace up-
pea ivd before a cold and critical i
N. A. M. convention which looked,
down its long noses and sat on Its j
hands. Wallace mumbled his pre-1
ared speech and to polite but de-;
cidedly iinenlhusiastlc applause
got out of there as fast as w'
could. It was an awful perform-;
anee, ami something to forget.
What Wallace said was 'nolhj
Ing to dash the hopes of the N.:
A. M. They Just didn't like Wal
lace and he didn't trust them. It
was the way he said It that left
his audience cold. Rereading the
speech today uncovers these key
sentences:
"The department of commerce
is designed to provide all possible
help for business we want n
sustained high level of Investment
production, employment, and
profits- business men must set
prices so they can make money
at two (hints of capacity opera
tions our free enterprise system
must bo preserved what we
need Is a genuine Increase In mass
purchasing power wo can't
spend our way Into good business
just by dipping into the federal
treasury -- we want prosperity
a sustained, solid prosperity not
subject to shattering ups and
downs we have got to help the
rest of the world get hack on Its
feet we are up against the
necessity of raising the American
standard of living."
The above was Henry Wallace
speaking, not W. Averell Hani
man. It so hapens. however,
that the other day Harriman
made a speech before the New
England council in Boston. It
was in the nature of a warm-up
for Harriman's coming speech to
the N. A. M. Just for the fun
of it. note what Harriman said,
comparing each sentence with
what Wallace said:
"The department of commerce
is largely a service agency to
further the economic welfare of
the country by fostering com
merce and Industry our objec
tive is to maintain a high level
of employment it is now the
responsibility of business men to
assist in preventing inflationary
