Proponents of the authority idea must have been somewhat dismayed by both what came from iU friends and : from its foes. j The Nebraskan, Francis P. Matthews, secretary of the navy, began the play when, in an interview in Portland, hei said that he did not know much about the CVA, that the, people of the northwest were the ones to make the decision: on the issue and that he did not intend to speak on the subject ! at the Democratic picnic that was the reason for his presence ; out here- Furthermore, he said that he was opposed to an; MVA. ! Having so delivered himself Secretary Matthews went to the picnic and read an address extolling the CVA. j In the interview it was the Nebraskan Matthews speaking. In the address it was the navy secretary told to do his stuff on j behalf of a presidential whim. Surely neither the northwest I nor the country at large will be deceived by such arguments as that of the picnic address obviously delivered under the , lash of a presidential directive. One can only regret that a public officer should be so far willing to forget his conscience as to obey an order to speak up for something in which he does not believe. It was not many days before the piiblic was- treated to this performance that Agriculture Secretary Brannan had one day supported the CVA and the next opposed it. Here too, the Truman whip was in evidence but on the first day of testi mony, only. On the next Charlie Brannan spoke up for the integrity of his department. Another important contribution to the CVA argument came on Sunday when the Oregon Journal gave front page position to the reprint of an article by Raymond Moley that had first appeared in his column in Newsweek. "Death Sen tence for State Government" was the title of the Moley article and this able writer and commentator in it offered all that ywas needed by way of justification for the anti-CVA attitudes of the four northwest governors who have taken the lead in protecting their states against the proposed federal encroach ment. We shall wait with interest to see what the proponents of the CVA have to offer by way of a reply. Finally, there was the statement by Forrest E. Cooper re ported in Tuesday's Bulletin regarding the taxation aspects of the CVA bill. So compelling was the Cooper argument on the tax phases of the bill that County Judge Allen was ready to indorse it Altogether these have been days of a bad press for thj CVA, EPLEY LEAVES Over the' years we have had frequent occasion to refer editorially -to the comments appearing in "Today's Roundup", a daily column in the Klamath Falls Heftild and News by its manajring editor, Malcolm Epley, Easy to read, entertaining, accurate (except when the writer chose to discuss the relative merits of Deschutes and Klamath potatoes), this feature was one of our favorites. Now it is with regret that we learn that Epley, after 18 years of newspaper work in the Klamath coun ty seat, is leaving to take over an executive position on the Long Beach, California, Press-Times. In his departure Ore gon will lose a fine reporter and editor and, of course, Cal ifornia will gain correspondingly. Our best wishes will go with him. Out on the Farm By Ila S. Grant Aug. 18 The scene was set last night for a wedding in the skies. We watched the proces sion of clouds from the picture window, and imagined that the eternal Bachelor might be waiting to take one of the Three Sisters "for better or for worse." The bride and her two attendants were gowned in powder blue, and they wore dusty rose clouds in their hair. "Something old" was the burning sun that the North Sis ter carried for a bouquet, and "something new" was a wisp of vapor that trimmed her heirloom veil of mist. The skies were a symphony of pink and blue. The birds sang love songs from every tree, and the little water fall in our front yard rumbled like a mighty pipe organ. Nature's cathedral was banked with green fields and dot ted with coJirful wild flowers. When the sun went down, the wind came up to waft the bride groom's caresses to his bride, and the stars came out to light them on their honeymoon. Others Say NORTH SANTIAM ROAD IS OPENED (Salem Caoital Journal) The bright blue sky overhead perhaps reilected the bright lu. ture ahead for the North Santi am canyon. The event Sunday was the opi ning of the new North Santiam highway connecting the Willamette valley with the Des chules country. A simple cutting of a ribbon on the Breitenbush bridge by De troit signified the cutting away of obstacles to travel through the gorge. For years men have dreamed of the day when ve hicles could move easily along the canyon wall. The Capital Journal was one of those who had long advocated sueh a road. Not overlooked by those filling the roadway of the bridge for the ceremony, was the significance of the new highway. It was more than a tie between two sections of Oregon. It was the first step in the building of Detroit dam, too. The new road was lifted high above the old one to permit construction and later flooding below. The dam that will block the course of the Santiam river will mean a change in the recrea tional area there itself. The lake that will be formed will submerge the present town of Detroit. The peaceful tempo of the region, first chanced two years ago when road construction started, will un dergo a further change. Tourists, travelers and sportsmen will come to the area in .numbers hereto-1 fore unknown. That, some resi dents will like, and then again others will pine for the good old days. Development of the canyon will be felt in both the Willamette and Deschutes sections. Salem and surrounding communities on this end of the road will share in the development brought by the new travel link. The snipping of the ribbon let loose the forces of travel, growth and progress.
