' X0W F0,R THE REST 0F THE HIGHWAY
With the completion of the Chiloquin cut-off on The Dalles
California highway and the opening of the new short section
between the Crooked river and Culver junction interest turns
to the question of the improvement or the reconstruction of
other portions of the road. Sooner or later if it is to come up to
, the standard of these recently finished portions of the high
way the full 75 mile section between Bend and Diamond lake
junction must have considerable attention.
It is correct to say, we believe, that the many millions spent
in the past 10 to 15 years from Klamath Falls north have been
spent more especially with relation to traffic using the Wil
lamette highway. What is virtually a new highway has been
built from that city to the north end of the new cut-off and in
, the same period only the most meagre expenditures have been
; made on the section between that point and Bend. In that lat
ter line, however, there are conditions of curvature, high
! crown, pavement failure and inadequate width that have been
crying for attention. The time has now come to answer the
. cry. . .
. We have always been of the opinion that the Willamette
. highway was an expensive luxury. Had the millions that have
; been spent on it been used on the Pacific highway and The
. Dalles-California each would have been brought nearer to
; modern standards than is the case today and interstate travel
. would be better served. It funnels travel into the Pacific
; route whose limitations are thereby aggravated. Its mainten-
ance is difficult, especially in winter. Heavier and more costly
1 surfacing is already required. However, the highway is built
and in use and'the improvements on The Dalles-California
. with which it connects are complete.
Now for some expenditures on the forgotten section south
. of Bend.
WE WONDER
, The Oregonian thinks that the liquor-by-the-glass measure
on which the voters will pass in November "proposes a more
; reasonable method of serving liquor, in strictly licensed and
; supervised restaurants, hotels and clubs than now exists in
'. Oreg6n." At the same time it "is convinced that better regu-
,Jl Jation of beer parlors, in many of which conditions are more
, 0 degrading than ever they were in old-time saloons, must be
undertaken whether or not the Knox law is amended."
These two assertions make us wonder. The liquor commis
sion has the same authority for strict licensing and super
vision 'of , beer parlors as it would have for the restaurants,
hotels and clubs that, if the measure passes, will serve liquor
by the glassi The Oregonian thinks that beer-parlor condi
tions are more degrading than ever they were in old-time
saloons. What, we wonder, leads it to believe that the commis
sion's authority will be better exercised in restaurants, hotels
-. and clubs than it is now exercised in beer parlors? .

Others Say . . .
KEEP LIQUOR CONTROL
AS IS
(Medford Mail-Tribune)
According to the Oregonian,
Portland favors liquor dispensed
by the drink in public bars, ho
tels, restaurants, etc., to the
present store control system, two
to one.
Oregonians ouslde of Portland
favor the present liquor system
by a five to one margin. .
The country people, In this de
partment's Judgment, have the
best of It.
The proof of the pudding Is in
the eating. Let any unprejudic
ed, fair-minded person compare
the liquor situation in this state,
with that in California where
there is no state control. Evi
dence of the superiority of the
Oregon system will be over
whelming. .
'
The claim In the Oregonian
write-up that drinks by the glass
would decrease drunkenness is
particularly silly.
The Implication that when an
individual buys a bottle he feels
impelled to sit down on the curb
and drink it all up is the sheer
est flap-doodle.
There have been many efforts
since the passage of the Oregon
liquor system to modify and
weaken it, chiefly for the sake
of greater sales and greater prof
Its for the dispenser.
It is to be hoped this effort
will fall also.
' The state-store liquor control
system is not perfect no liquor
control system could be but we
believe it is the best yet devised,
from I he standpoint of properly
regulating the traffic, returning
the maximum profit to the peo
ple of the state, and effecively
eliminating the grave abuses and
demoralizing effects of the old
time saloon.

Washington
Column
By Peter Edson
(NEA Washington Correspondent)
Philadelphia (NEA) Backbone
of the Henry Wallace third party
Is revealed here as coming from
the leadership of the left-wing la
bor movement. It has for its front
a few radical intellectuals like
Louis Adamtc, Howard Fast, Lil
lian Hellman, and Prof. Rexford
Guy Tugwell of the University of
Chicago. It gets Its mass support
from , Negroes, Jews, Townsend
ites and other minority groups.
But the main strength Is drawn
from 11 unpurged CIO unions,
plus a scattering of Wallace button-wearers
in the right-wing
CIO unions, the AFL, the railroad
brotherhoods and the United Mine
Workers. Chairman of the nation
al labor committee for Wallace Is
Albert Fitzgerald, president of the
United Electrical Workers, CIO.
His right-hand man and chief
counsel is Lee Pressman, former
CIO lawyer, now secretary of the
third party platform committee
and a candidate for congress from
Brooklyn. Theli three vice-chairmen
are Courtney Ward of Cleve
land, president of the Northern
Ohio Painters' council, AFL, Don
ald R. Hicks of Minneapolis,
Brotherhood of Locomotive En
gineers, and Hugh Bryson of New
York, president of the Marine
Cooks and Stewards, CIO.
The CIO Internationals that
openly support Wallace, and
whose officers are all for Wal
lace, are: United Electrical Work
ers; Mine, Mill and Smelter Work
ers; United Office and Profes
sional Workers; Fiir and Leather
Workers; Farm Equipment
Workers; Harry Bridges' Interna
tional Longshoremen and Ware
housemen; Fishermen; Marine
Cooks and Stewards; Food
and Tobacco Workers, and Furni
ture Workers.
These left-wing unions repre
sent a total membership of about
1,500,000, of which 600,000 are in
the United Electrical Workers.
All their third party activity is
carried on-against the policy laid
down by Phil Murray. Dave Me
Donald, Jim Carey and other top
CIO officers.
Phil Murray's opposition to the
Wallace movement has forced
Fitzgerald and Pressman to do a
certain amount of underground
work in getting support from
rank and file members of the-
more conservatively led unions
In the anti-communist directed
Steel, Auto and Rubber Workers
unions, Fitzgerald's organizers
have worked at the local union
level. They claim some 300 shop
comm ttces lor Wallace, junction-
lng against the top officers of
the r unions.
Jack Kroll's CIO political action
committee has fought this Wal
lace movement as hard as it
could. PAC units that show any
interest In the Wallace candidacy
are disciplined.
, Fear of getting In bad vlth
their International officers has
kept many union men from sup
norilns the Wallace movement
onenlv. Fitzgerald lieutenants
say, strangely enough, they report
no opposition from leadership ol
the AFL unions or from John L.
Lewis.
What these left-wing labor ele
ments want out of the Wallace
mnvomont is fantastic. Don
fnr the railroad
ers before the Wallace platform
committee, ouinnea mese uc-
mands: The six-hour day; pension
at half -pay for tailroaders with 30
uiMru1 serviep! amendment of the
railway labor act to give the
brotherhoods more power, pena
Ing eventual national ownership
nt tho railrnaris. Stanley L. Lon-
ey, UEW vice president, made
these demands: iree nign scuuui
and college education tor an; iree
medical care and hospitalization
for all; $100-a-month pensions for
all over 60; $l-an-hour minimum
wage; $40 a week for 52 weeks'
unemployment insurance; 52
weeks guaranteed work every
year, and so on.
These are lair samples oi ine
demands made by a parade of
over 75 witnesses from special in
terest groups of world federalists,
Amigos de Wallace, tenants, so
cial workers, artists, scientists,
teachers, Slavs, Armenians, writ
ers and what-have-yous. Out of
the wfiole bunch, there was not
one that said there was anything
good about the United States of
America.
