TO TEST THE PENSION LAW As a preliminary step toward dealing with the old age pen sion law, which, among other things, threatens to wreck the , state s financial structure. Attorney general Neuncr has step ped forward with an opinion on the act in which he questions its constitutionality. ; f ; It is, of course, to be kept in mind that his statements do , not nave and cannot have any of the standing or effectiveness i of a court ruling. It is his opinion and that only. The law con tinues to stand, unchanged in any particular and is neither constitutional nor unconstitutional- by virtue of his pro v nouncement. Still, his views on the subject mav helD to brinor about some worth while results to the extent that they are accepted as advice oy trie members of the board of control, which, according to the provisions of the old age pension act, : is required to put this appalling bit of popular legislation into : . immediate effect. ;-.;; , ; Whether the board has been in need of advice is something eise again, judging irom me statements oi uovernor John 11. ; Hall, an experienced lawyer as well as head of the board, that body was already determined to force action leading to su ' preme court rulings. Bv "sitting tiirht." refusinc to nine tho ,law in operation, they would invite mandamus proceedings, under which the issues in dispute could quickly be carried to the high court. This tactic is suggested by the governor. An- otner metnod would oe to request a declaratory judgment. In either case it is to be taken for granted that the board will do nothing that might be construed as acceptance of the law except on mandate from the court. This attitude is, to put it mildly, encouraging. With Gover nor Hall and his fellow members, Treasurer Leslie M. Scott and Secretary of state Earl T. Newbry taking this position, the general feeling of disaster following the passage of the pension bill will be lessened. By no means secure as yet, the state has reason to believe that its insecurity may not be so complete as had at first been feared. " ZONING ACCEPTANCE DESIRABLE When another election rolls around it will be well if there is added to the Deschutes county ballot a measure which will 1 give the voters opportunity to accept for local enfo'rcemenf the ; provisions of the state zoning law. Little present need for this ; exists for wayside building is still pretty much at a minimum on central Oregon highways. But that is just why preparation for control should be made now. If unsightly construction is to be prevented the means for prevention must be at hand. If undesirable developments along the highway, whether for trade, industry or residence are to be blocked the authoriza tion must first be given. . Lane county is the first in the state to avail itself of the power of control extended by the enabling act. In Lane there was already an unpleasant misuse of wayside locations. To an extent preventive action was already too late but at least it can ' be applied to safeguard roadside properties against further misuse. The people of Lane county have gone even further in their endeavor to rescue the natural beauty of the area from cleso- cration. In addition to approving highway zoning they have voted establishment of 20 garbage disposal centers as a means of stopping the continued dumping of refuse at undesignated spots. Perhaps something of the kind could be inaugurated here with good results. FARM BUREAU FEDERATION The Farm Bureau federation is an organization primarily interested in the development and welfare of agriculture and of those engaged in agricultural pursuits. Conservative in its outlook and methods, democratic in its operation, it is a group closely associated with the best in farming objectives. Re luctant to become entangled in political undertakings, it does, nevertheless, take sides on more important questions. Its judgments are usually sound. Bend is privileged this week to have approximately 200 ' members of the federation as its guests. They are here to attend the 17th annual state convention. Their interest in this community is gratifying, especially when it is recalled that this organization is not given to moving about, year after year, Irom one town to another, when it goes conventiomng. We hope that the delegates will enjoy their stay in Bend and that they will come again.

Some of their sayings may be sign language on which there will be conflicting Interpretations. But among the things which the election results seemed to say, there may be listed these: The people said they liked the new deal reforms. Any Idea that Harry Truman won because he campaigned far to the left of what he himself thinks privately, may be wrong. For a reference point on that, go back to Harry Truman's 1946 budget message in which he outlined a 21-point program of increased social wel fare and better living conditions for all the people. He has stuck consistently to that. The people said they don't want a reactionary republican govern ment. This does not necessarily mean that the republican party is dead. More likely it Just means that the people think the republi cans made their mistake at Phil adelphia last June, when they chose the candidate with the best political machine instead of the best candidate. The people said they don't like a candidate who is too cagy, too cozy, too smooth. The people said they like a scrapper. They like an underdog who is inclined to put up a good fight. The people said they like a man who is hon est, even if he is sometimes wrong. The people said they pre ferred a candidate who told them frankly just where he stood on every issue. ' The people said they wanted nothing to do with communism. They said that In their repudia tion oi Henry Wallace, Leo lsac- son, Lee Pressman and their so called progressive party, , The people said they wanted something done about high prices and inflation. Ihey did not neces sarily say they wanted full war time price controls and inflation. But they apparently believe that doing something even if it turns out to be the wrong tmng is bet ter than doing nothing. You get confirmation of that in such things as the election of an ex- OPA administrator Chester Bowles as governor of Connecticut. The people said they didn't like the record of the 80th congress. lhe people didn t like what the 80th congress did not do about such things as expanding social security coverage, Increasing the minimum wage level, taking care of public housing. The people didn't like what the congress did do about labor legislation. A ma jority of the people said they were willing to have the latt Hartlev act repealed. President Truman so pointedly made that an issue of the campaign that there can be no doubt about it. A vast majority of the people said they wanted a civil rights program enacted and they want it enacted for the whole country, not Just parts of it. a There are' many fine clean things like this about the last election. 'Ihey leave a pleasant taste In the mouth. They tend to GOP to Control 1949 Legislature; Posts Are Sought By Eidon Barrett (United Preaa Staff Correspondent) Salem, Nov. 10 Ut Republi cans will control the legislature in 1949 but the democrats will have a louder voice than they did two years ago. In fact the democrats with 10 senators one-third of the upper house membership form a strong bloc of votes. Just to prove how strong the democrats are in the senate, Sen. Thomas R. Mahoney, Portland democrat, who was - reelected, says he li running for the im portant post of senate president. Mahoney stands about as much a chance of getting the Job as the No. 10 doorkeeper but he wants to let the GOP know "us demo crats are still around." Two Are Holdovers ' Mahoney was one of five demo crats in the senate last session. Two of the five Orval N. Thomp son of Albany and Austin Dunn of Baker are holdovers; the other two Walker J. Pearson, treasurer-elect, and Lew Wallace defeated for governor did not attempt to retain their senate Jobs. , The republicans have 19 senate seats, and another to be vacated by governor-elect Douglas McKay Is in the GOP bag. Nine of the 19 are holdovers; five were re-elected and five are newcomers. Two ot the newcom ersMarie Wilcox, Grants Pass housewife and the only woman senator, and William M. McCallis ter, Medford attorney, have had previous experience in the house. Number Not Certain In the house the democrats have ten of the 60 members al though they may gain or lose one when the canvass of general election votes is completed. In the 1947 session the demo- prove that this thing called dem ocracy works. Just tell the people all the facts, and they will Instinc tively decide what Is the right thing to do. ; The marvel of the election is this thing called democracy the American system of having a revolution every four years whether the country needs it or not works better than most peo ple realize. Many of the people who went to the polls to vote for Truman and his party did. so with misgivings, not expecting that their votes would do Any good. But they voted their convic tions. And Just look at the result. The people voted with their heads. They split tickets all over the ballot. The element that threw the election to the democrats, (the element that threw the profes sional poll-takers for a loss, tyas the nine per cent of the vojers who were "undecided" on now they would vote until the last minute. They were the ones who went to the polls and kicked but the officeholders they thought were no good, substituting candi dates they thought better. That is where the people spoke the loud est.
