- CVA, NORTHWEST OVERLORD
If, as we suggested, you kept the Mitchell pro-CVA article
that has been under discussion here, you will observe that
there are no more numbers against the paragraphs. Accord
ingly we proceed without numbers and find the next Mitchell
assertion to be :
Today we have 33 federal agencies attempting to manage
northwest resources. No one of them has the over-alt author
ity to direct this complex job To place responsibility
and assure direction. President Truman asked congress to
create the CVA. He asks this to provide the needed mechan
ism to make the federal agencies function together.
There we have the bald admission that the CVA is expected
to become the overlord of the S3 federal agencies concerned
with the resources' of the Pacific northwest. To appreciate
the extent of the control that 'Representative Mitchell wants
to see the CVA have in the northwest one has only to read the
list of agencies that go to make up that S3 total. Here it is.
U. S. Department of Agriculture
Bureau of Agricultural Economics
' Agricultural Research Administration
Agricultural Research Center
' Bureau of Agricultural and Industrial Chemistry
Bureau of Animal Industry
Bureau of Dairy Industry
Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine
Bureau of Plant Industry, Soils and Agricultural En
gineering Of fice of Experiment Stations
Extension Service
Forest Service
Rural Electrification Administration
Soil Conservation Service
U. S. Department of the Interior
Office of Land Utilization
Bureau of Land Management
Bureau of Reclamation
Bureau of Indian Affairs
National Park Service .
Fish and Wildlife Service
Geological Survey - ' -;
Bureau of Mines
Oil and Gas Division
Division of Power
Bonneville Power Administration '".
U. S. Department of Commerce
Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce
Coast and Geodetic Survey .
Weather Bureau ,' . '
Off ice of Technical Services
U. S. Department of the Army .
Corps of Engineers ',. , ... t . , ,
U. S. Federal Security Agency , ! -- - . ,
Public Health Service . - : -
U. S. Federal Power Commission -
U. S. Federal Works Agency
U. S. Interstate Commerce Commission
U. S. National Security Resources Board .
Read that list over again and think over just what it would
mean to have three directors of a CVA making, to use Mr.
Mitchell's words, these federal agencies function together. '
MORE GOVERNMENT WASTE
Here is a news story from the current issue of the Madras
Pioneer offered as another contribution in the campaign
against government waste and inefficiency. We invite others
who have similar evidence to submit it for publicity purposes.
Only by exposing this sort of thing will there be a possibility
of bringing it to an end.-.
Howard Kriz, Madras druggist, no admirer of the Truman
administration, Tuesday came face to face with a situation that
made him yell "bureaucratic inefficiency" loud enough to rattle
the windows.
His mail contained not one, but five, letters from the Public
Housing administration of the Housing and Home finance ...
. agency at Seattle inviting him to check items of surplus proper
ty he might be interested in bidding on.
Not five copies of the letter in one envelope, mind you, nor
five different letters; but five separate, identical letters. It wasn't
a case of the addressing machine getting stuck and addressing
five envelopes before it went on to the next address either. Each
address had a "key," a group of numbers, opposite the name of '
the addressee; and each of the five "keys" was different
"All in franked envelopes, of course," Kriz observed.
Behind the Scenery
By l'hll F. Ilrngan
C1.01U SCKNKKY
Clouds a ix- definitely a part of
the Central Oregon scenery. Un
like the "eternal" hills and other
features of the volcanic landscape
of the upper Deschutes country j
of Oregon, clouds, with one excep
tion, assume new tonus irom ;
hour to hour and from day to day,
providing an ever-changing back-;
drop for the earthly scenery. The i
exception is the rare cloud known
as lenticularis.
Cloud scenery ot Sunday eve-;
nlng, as viewed from central Ore-;
gon points facing the Cascades, 1
was magnificent. Three typos of
clouds were visible. Blanketing
the Cascades was the type known
as stratocumulus, formed when :
warm winds were forced up thei
steep western slope. Curving over j
the Three Sisters were lens-shap-1
ed clouds. High in the heavens
were wisps of cirrus. All vied for
ttention, but it was the middle
clouds, great lenticular masses,
that stole the evening show.
These clouds are thick in the cen
ter and thin at the edges. They
are formed by winds blowing over
mountaintops. Lake a waterfall.
such a cloud stays in one place,
but keeps building new materia,!
and losing old.
Over the Oregon Cascades, as
viewed from the east, the lens
shaped clouds, of the family
known to weathermen as alto
cumulus, are the most spectacu
lar of any spot in the world.
The lens-like 'clouds that drape
the Oregon Cascades are of spe
cial beauty because of the manner
they curve over the higher peaks,
remaining In the same position
for hours. At times they curve
in multiple "decks," one on top
of the other to a height of several
miles above the lofty peaks.
Laymen are amazed by the
manner the lenticular clouds re
main unchanged over the Cas
cades. Weathermen say the ex
planation is simple: On the wind
ward side, facing the Pacific,
moisture is constantly blown up
from below, condensed and add
ed to the cloud. To the leeward,
facing the semi-arid midstate pla
teau, the moisture evaporates. In
realty, the cloud mass changes.
The cloud forms remain unchanged.

Out on the Farm
By Ha S. Grant
July 25 Yesterday we had
another workout in the garden.
We have grown half a dozen
crops of weeds while just one crop
of vegetables has been struggling
along.
The squash vines look like ex
otic tropical plants. The zuchini
are in bloom, and at the base of
each pointed yellow flower, a lit
tle squash is forming. It won't
be long now until there'll be
squash for the table. They grow
like mad, once they get started.
For Sunday dinner, we had veg
etables out of our own garden.
The buttered turnips were deli
cious. The radishes have grown so
big that they aren't dainty any
more, and the huge red ones,
some as big as tomatoes, are apt
to be hollow inside. We took a
big bundle of them to the pigs,
and they seemed to enjoy them.
The Icicle radishes are more prac
tical than other varieties, we have
decided. Even though they get as
big as large carrots, they stay
crisp, firm and sweet. They are
so sizable that we slice them like
cucumbers for the table.
Kresh beets arc a delicacy that
more people should know about.
Harvard beets 'are a favorite at
our house, and. I've found that
evep folks who don't like them
plain enjoy them In the nippy
sweet-and-sour sauce. Kor about
two pounds of beets, cubed or cut
In long shreds, you make a sauce
using one-fourth cup 'of water,
half, a cup of ;vinegar, three
fourths cup of sugar, one tea
spoon of cornstarch ' and halt a
teaspoon of salt.' Mix the dry In
grcdlehtsi together, add the li
quid, and cook five minutes. Then
add the cooked beets and let
stand about 15 minutes over low
heat for. the flavors to blend.

Photography
It's here for your inspection
and you'll want to see this
gadget. It makes four cam
eras out of one. And it's called
the Kodak Tourist Adapter
Kit. If you are the owner of a
Kodak Tourist Camera with
the f6.3 or f4.5 lens, this kit
permits the use of 828 Ko'da-"
chrome and black-ndwhite
film and the making of three
different negative sizes on 620
Kodak Film. Think of itl One
camera that will give you three
different ..negative sizes " in
black-and - white and Koda
chrome transparencies as well.
Drop in tomorrow' and look it
over. You can convert your
present Tourist into a four
way camera for just 514.50.
For those of you who would
like to know just a little more
about this game of photogra
phy and don't know just how
to go about finding out some
of tne things that intrigue you,
we suggest that you consider
the many fine publications
that are available in the Cam
era Dept. at Symons Bros. For
the beginner there's an excel
lent source of information in
the book called "How To Make
Good Pictures" and it's a bar
gain too at just 75c. And if.
you're thinking about doing
some of your own photo fin
ishing and are curious about
some of the finer points of the
camera itself, you'll want the
book called "This Is Photog
raphy."' And for those of you that
consider yourselves as "ad
vanced amateurs" there's the
BIG VALUE of "Graphic and
Graf lex Photography" at $4.50.
Another in this class is the
book called "Introduction To
Color."
There is also a complete se
lection of Kodak Data Books
at 35c to cover specific prases
of photography. You'll want
them for your own and they
also make wonderful gifts for
the "hard to buy for", husband,
brother or friend, u ' '
See the Camera Dept. at
Symons Bros, first for all your
camera needs. ' '
