BRANNAN PLAN STRATEGY Froved strategy in administrative aggression is to ask or demand much more than there is any expectation of getting. If by any chance that much is allowed, the executive in ques tion is in an advantageous position indeed. If, as is more like ly, he is forced to make concessions, he may wind up with a compromise which represents at least as much as he expected in the first place. All of us have seen this tactic used in budget making, in business negotiations, in legislation. And, as the week ended there was another exemplification of it, in the compromise that was seemingly being worked out between the senate and Secretary of agriculture Brannan, whose production pay ments plan has been stalled since he proposed it this spring. If any part of it is accepted, the secretary of agriculture w ill be the winner and the cause of socialism will have advanced another step. The Brannan plan, in its entirety, proposes a guaranteed income for farm producers. It also promises reduced prices for the consumer of foodstuffs. If the reduced prices are not sufficient to make up the guaranteed income, and there is no reason to suppose that they would be, the difference would come out of the national treasury. General taxation, that is to say, would take care of the consumer at one end and of the producer at the other. The socialistic intent is apparent. The whole thing, as Secretary Brannan had it worked out, was just too much for congress to swallow. It had. however, such promise as a popular vote getter something for nothing for everybody that it was certain from the beginning that the administration (as represented by the secretary) would make every possible effort to get some part of it, no matter how small, provided through new legislation. And now the compromise is being proposed which will give Mr. Brannan everything he desires for the time being. The bill that has been whipped into shape would give the secretary the right to "try out" his ideas on certain specified products. That is the way it is stated ; actually it is the camel's nose un der the tent. Presently the whole ungainly creature is ex pected to follow. The compromise is not a compromise at all ; it is an infiltra tion. Complete opposition is the only effective resistance that can now be made to the advances of socialism. The concession involved here is not as trivial as the -administration would make it appear. J. ALTON THOMPSON For two score years J. Alton Thompson taught in the public schools of central Oregon and superintended the work of pub lic education. Teaching was his life and he had engaged in it for the greater part of his life, not only in the far vyest but in the middle west in the .period between his college graduation in Michigan and his coming to Redmond in 1907. He was Deschutes county's first school superintendent, a position in wh'ich he continued to serve until two years ago. History was his most beloved subject and he was never so happy as when engaged in some bit of research into the pio neer life and events of his adopted state. ' His decision to retire from the activities of his profession was cause for general regret. His death has brought sorrow to the many who knew and loved him. Out on the Farm By Ila S. Grant Aug. 9 The chickens should be very happy. Their house is beginning to look like a Cape Cod cottage. I can almost picture it painted white, with outdoor flower boxes and a make-believe red brick chimney. The new addition, formerly the front porch on the house, has been T'd on to the front of the chicken coop. Of course the new part hasn't any walls yet. Just a roof and floor. But even so, the ouilding looks like a minia- ture of the first home the Grants owned, nearly 13 years ago. The chickens took only minor interest in the house-moving, and acted somewhat irritated when they had to hop up on the new wing in order to get in to their nests and roosts. They had a visitor yesterday, a half grown pheasant. The cal ler ilew over the fence and ate greedily of the grain. It was so much easier to pick it out of the feeding tray than to forage in the fields. The pheasant didn't roost with the chickens last night, and this morning it was gone.

Condition of Aged Man'Reported Fair Portland, Aug. 9 IP The con dition of a 76-year-old gold pros pector rescued from a Mt. Hood trail shelter after 13 days with out food was "fairly good" to day, doctors said. John Tracy, of Estacada, Ore., was conscious but unable to talk or stand when Ben Franklin, of Estacada and Ray Godleske, Sandy, Ore., f puna him. The aged prospector kissed their hands, the men said. Tracy set out July 29 to look for gold his pioneer mother told him was located high on the mountain. In his car, parked nearoy, were his lunch and a rake he had brought along to scratch moss from the rocks. Tracy lost 30 to 40 pounds dur ing liie 13 days.

Since the laws govern ing unemployment Insurance vary in every state, it is difficult to make a national round-up on this subject that will fit all cases. But the nature of the problem may be stated in general terms. The weakness of the unemploy ment insurance system is in com bating depressions. The system was designed primarily to give temporarily unemployed workers some income between jobs. If the country is now heading into an other period of continued low em ployment such as it went through in the 1930's, that's where the trouble will come. The 33.000,000 workers now covered by the various state sys tems become eligible for unem ployment insurance as they build up "wage credits." The more steadily workers are employed in any year, the more unemploy ment insurance they are entitled to, up to the maximum set by each state. New York now has the most liberal unemployment insur ance terms in the nation. Unem ployed workers there may drew a maximum of S26 a week for a maximum of 26 weeks in any year. When a worker exhausts his unemployment insurance benefits in any year, he may not become eligible for more unemployment insurance until a new "employ ment year" begins. It is in deter mining the limits of this employ ment year that state practices vary widely. In New York, the unemployed may become eligible for addition al benefits at the beginning of every quarter. The rise in Nw York's unemployment insurance claims from 331.000 as of June 11 ,to 425,000 as of July 9 was due in part to the fact that a number of claimants had exhausted their benefits in the second quarter tf The Bend Junior Chamber of Commerce .Presents The iterrDa A Biblical Drama o Thursday & Friday, Aug. 18 - 19 BEND HIGH SCHOOL GYMNASIUM Tickets Available From . . .

But they became ellgl blejor new benefits after July 1. tdassacnusetts and 15 'other states have uniform benefit years, beginning April 1. Maximum' bene fit in Massachusetts is 23 weeks in any one year. When a Bay state worker has used up all his wage credits and drawn benefit pay ments for 23 weeks, he cannot again become eligible for bene fits until after the next April 1. In other states, the usual pat tern is for each worker's employ ment year record to begin on the day he files his Initial claim for insurance. Then when he has ex- ' hausted his benefits, he does not again hecome eligible for more unemployment insurance until 52 weeks after he has filed his first claim. When a worker Is drawing In surance for from 20 to 26 weeks, he is obviously not building up wage credits for the following year. In this ensuing year this worker will therefore be eligible for roughly less than half as much insurance as he got in his initial year of unemployment. National statistics on the ex isting 48 state unemployment in surance systems, as collected by the bureau of employment secur ity in Washington, reveal that for the first three months of this year, 369,000 of the 2.110.000 workers now drawing unemploy ment insurance had exhausted their benefits. Figures for the sec ond quarter, now being compiled, will probably show an increase In exhaustions. Kor the third quar ter the situation will really be come critical unless there is a pick-up in employment. For when a worker can draw no more bene- I fits, he must gp on relief if he nas no other source ot income. During the first quarter of 1049, the average unemployed worker exhausted his wage cred its and his benefits in about 19 weeks. So any unemployment lasting more than five months can easily swell relief anil public welfare rolls. Of the 10 principal labor mar Lioht iff ket areas reporting more than 12 'a per cent of their Insured workers drawing unemployment benefits In May, only one situa tion has been cleared up. That Is the San Jose, Calif., area. FAMILY AKGLMENT Oqn.nn rnlir A . , n O When Arthur Augustad, 4ti. told his wile.
