"APPROPRIATE ACTION"
tJnless the candidates for the democratic nomination for
governor behave themselves State chairman Josslin, so he
has warned them, will take "appropriate action." Oh, how we
wish thev would keen on with
ing the quarrels to continue so that they will kill off each
other. What we do want to learn is what it is that Les thinks
is "appropriate action."
Sneaking- of these candidacies
and "Piggy" Pearson are up

"Piggy" advocates an increase

The cost of living has gone
income tax payer but Pearson
posal any suggestion as to how, it the income tax take is re
duced in the manner he proposes, the state will find new rev
enue. Lew is in a class with "Piggy". He has no idea regarding
new state income to meet the increased costs he favors.
The third candidate, Austin Flegel, has yet to make his tax
ideas known but they had better be good or Josslin will take
"appropriate action".
POLICE EFFICIENCY
, Whatever moral may be drawn from the service station
holdup of Saturday night and its nearly fatal sequel, Bend
has reason to be gratified at the demonstration of police ef
ficiency which was given. Just eight minutes separated the
two calls to police headquarters marking the beginning of the
case and its completion. The first reported the holdup and
gave descriptions of man and car. The second, from the ar
resting officers, asked for a doctor and an ambulance, neither
fortunately, required by a member of the force.
In between, the desk sergeant had alerted radio cars, re
laying the descriptions by short wave; from the descriptions
the officers had spotted and followed the stolen auto, had
questioned the suspect and had effectively returned his fire
when he resisted search.
All in eight minutes. That, we suggest, is top performance
in any man's league. It is the sort of enforcement, moreover,
that should convince would be violators that crime in Bend
doesn't pay.
The atomic energy commission has said that survivors of
an. atomic bomb attack can expect to live a "reasonably nor
mal life" thereafter without fear of drastic radiation after
effects. On first reading that sounds all right but when you
begin to take the sentence apart you observe that to begin
with you have to be a survivor and you wonder what the
chances of being one are. Satisfy yourself on that point and
then you note the words "reasonably" and "drastic". And
then where are you? ,
Removal of the ten cent federal tax on colored oleo, set for
the first of the fiscal year, will withdraw an indirect price
support for butter. With substitutes in better competitive
position, more of the dairy products will be available for
direct price support. More butter to be purchased by the gov
ernment, the purchase price, of course, coming from general
taxation.
We observe that the 1950 Idaho motor vehicle license plates
do not carry the potato that has been a distinctive mark of
the state's plates in past years. Turned in to take advantage
of the potato subsidy program, we suppose.
Others Say
NOT ALL IN WASHINGTON
(Corvallis Gazette-Times)
The current issue of Country
Gentlemen carries one of. the most
amazing stories of our present
governmental dilcmmu. It con
cerns a survey made in DoKalb
county, Illinois. Twenty-five of
the farmers in t Vie county were
asked this question "What would
be your rough guess as to the
number of federal farm agency
employees either part or full
time in DeKalb county in liM'J'.'"
Their average guess was Sti fed
eral hired hands in their midst.
And 21 of the 25 went on to say
that this was too many.
They were flabbergasted when
told the right answer was more
than three times their pucss. For
178 men and women were work
ing for the federal government in
De Kalb county last year just to
tell farmers what they should tlo,
what they can do, and In some in
stances, wnat tney cannot do.
These 178 persons put in part
or full time and were paid from
$8 a day up to $5350 a year. They
worked only on the various fed
eral farm service programs inside
that one county. One Hundred and
twenty-three of them actually live
right In the county;. 55 of them
live outside the county but reg
ularly visit ns part of their du
ties. Job holders in state, region
al and national bureaus who in
fluence but never see De Kalb
county were not counted.
Uncle Sam spent SHti.OGo.GO In
tax money to bring their services
to the county's 2500 farmers. This
does not include the federal por
tion of salaries received by 55
workers who live outside the
county and made occasional vis
its. This, article goes on to tell of
the various duties of the govern
ment help. It is interesting and
distressing in nil Its aspects and
certainly recommended reading.
WHERE "A BETTER 'OLE?"
(Oregon Statesman)
Speaking In Los Angeles, Pres.
T. S. Peterson of Standard Oil
Co., of California raised two slg
nlficant questions:
"Any reasonable man, before
sanctioning a wrecking job on
American business, had letter
ask himself at least two pertin

as good a life materially under
the next system, and would the

POWER AND ALUMINUM
REDUCTION
(Oregon Statesman)
Reviewing the report cf the
Columbia river power system,
Bl'A, the liend Bulletin notes that
in the past three years virtually
half the delivery of power lias
Di'i'ii lo the aluminum industry.
However, the revenue received
from I his use has been well un-:
der one-half of the total. j
ihe Bulletin refers to "favorit
ism" lo the aluminum Industry.
That may not follow from the
facts as stated. Aluminum pro
duction is on a continuous basis,
its demand is "firm," night and
day. That earns for It the lowest
rate, as is true in any system.
11 is true, as the Bulletin notes,
that aluminum reduction provides
lew jobs relative to the power
consumption; and the nortnwest
would be belter off if the power
were broken up In smaller par
cels and used ny Industries giv
ing more Jobs per thousand kilo-
waits. Perhaps that may come
with development of an alumi
num fabricating industry in the
northwest. One such user of alu
minum is locating in Salem. The
payoff may come at that end ot
the line.

OPPOSES DAYLIGHT TIME
To the Editor:
A majority of our city com
missioners are reported to favor
a change to "fast" time, as op
posed to. regular or standard
time for Bend, and they gener
ously offer to hear our protest
before the execution, the infer
ence being, "Go ahead and holler,
but we'll hang you anyhow."
Last year the people pf Bend
voted this down, and they will
do it again this year, if given a
complete fair and impartial vot
ing election, where the will of the
majority can be accurately ex
pressed. The placing of petitions in cer
tain Bend business houses, for a
sample of sentiment, is not the
most complete or American meth
od of voting.
Certain minority groups claim
that standard time might be con
fusing to California tourists.
They are nice people, but what
do we owe them, that we do not
owe to our own farmers and to
tlio majority of Bend citizens?
Charity begins at home! We are
busy these days telling the world
about democracy, let's try it at
home, by general vote.

Edgar Rice Burroughs, creator of
modern fiction's most famed
character Tarzan the Apeman

The 74-year-old Burroughs made
Tarzan an international legend.
The apeman's tree-swinging antics

Burroughs, a shut-in for the
last few years, was reading the
Sunday comics ns he ate break
fast in bed. Suddenly the news
paper dropped from his hands,
his eyes closed, and the famed
novelist died almost instantly.
Dr. Herman Seal, the writer's
physician, was in the ranchhouse
when Burroughs died. He said
death was caused by a heart ail
ment and hardening of the arter
ies. Burroughs had been critically
ill for 10 days. He was first
stricken about three months ago.

back at Capistrano and the blue
birds are back on Calico farm!
This is the first day of spring.
Spring comes slowly to the
mountain country, but she sends
all .sorts of little harbingers
ahead to herald her arrival. Now
that the season Is officially here,
the signs will be all the more
significant.
New leaves on the Macs are
rolled up in tight little rosettes,
all ready for their "coming out."
The willow that towers over the
cistern looked golden-green yes
terday, as though the sun pene
trated the drab dormant stems
and changed their color even as
I watched.
The rye field that we see from
the window is resplendent in its

Washington The "high-rank,
ing State Department official"
whom Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy
charged had tampered with State
Department personnel records
turns out to be Joseph Anthony
Panuch, now a New York lawyer.
He was deputy assistant secre
tary of state for administration
from November, 1945, to Janu
ary, 1947. Then he was special as
sistant to Gen. Lucius D. Clay in
Germany, returning to the, U. S.
last fall.
Senator McCarthy refused to
name the official at the opening
session of the Sena's Foreign Re
lations subcommittee investiga
tion into charges of security risks
in the State Department. But
identification of the official was
betrayed by Senator McCarthy
himseH in two of his cases No.
14 and No. 41.
When Panuch was informed
that he had been identitied as
Senator McCarthy's mysterious
"high-ranking State Department
official," he refused to make any
comment until M had seen the re
cord. The joke of the whole business
is that-Senator McCarthy criticiz
ed tie "high official" for his
handling of case 14, and praised
him highly for his handling of
ca.se 41. And in case 41, Senator
McCarthy mentioned Mr. Panuch
by name. That was the give-awiv.
In discussing his case 14, Sen
ator McCarthy on the Senate
floor recently charged that, "This
Is a case of pressure from a high
State pepartment official to ob
tain security clearance for an in
dividual with a bad background
from the standpoint of security.
He was appointed a translator in
December, 1945 ... A report from
another government investigat
ing agency under date of Jan. 9,
1946, advised that the suspect
should be dismissed because be
was flagrantly homosexual. He
had extremely close connections
with other individuals with the
same tendencies and who were
active members of Communist
front organizations, including the
Young Communist League . . .
"The State Department's own
security agency recommended the
discharge of this employe on Jan.
22, 194G. On Feb. 19, 1946, this
individual's services were termin
ated by the State Department.
Subsequently, on April 1, 1946,
the action discharging this indi
vidual was rescinded and he was
reinstated in his job in the State
Department.
"In this case a Civil Service Ad
ministration report of Sept. 2,
1947, is replete with information
covering the attempt of a high
State. Department official to in
duce several individuals who had
signed affidavits reflecting ad
versely upon the employe to re
pudiate their affidavits. The file
shows that that high State De
partment employe even went out
and personally contacted the in
dividuals who signed the affida
vits and asked them, "Won't you
renudiate them?, "
While thus blasting Mr. Panuch

for his handling of case 14, Sena
tor McCarthy had this to say
about his handling of case 41:
"There is a memorandum in
the file to the effect that Joe
Panuch had made considerable
effort to get this man out of the
State Deoartment. He was unsuc
cessful, however, and, incidental
ly, the information i gel ana
this is not so much from the files
is that this man Panuch tried
to do a job of houaecleanlng and
was given somewhat of a free
hand under Jimmy Byrnes in
startine to accomplish the Job.
"However, when Byrnes left
and Marshall took over senators
will recall Achesoh was then un
dersecretary the first official
act of General Marshall was to
discharge the man, Panuch. Ob.
viously, General Marsnau aia not
know anything about the situa.
tion. Some one of the underlings
iaid, 'Get rid of this man.' It
would seem to be the only logical
thing that he would not, as his
first official act, discharge a man,
unless the undersecretary said,
'Get rid of him,' which is rather
unusual. Here is one man who
tried to do the job of houseclean
ing and the ax falls."

THIS IS
Photography
A' fella came in the other
day and gave us the dickens
about this column. He said we
weren't giving enough good,
sound advice with respect to
good pictures. "Too much ad
vertising . . ." he said. Well,
maybe he's right. Of course,
we don't want you to forget
that the Camera Dept. at Sym
ons Bros, can supply you with
your camera needs.
But to get on with it, maybe
that fella's right and we should
spend more of our columns
passing along the word of the
experts in the field. One sub
ject, that might bear a little
discussion is the proper light
ing for color film.
Use flat, even light, and let
the colors take care of con
trast and emphasis. So runs
the basic rule of lighting for
color photography. Like many
another rule, it can be and has
been successfully violated, but
only by experts who knew
what they were about.
Like all honest rules, it is no
mere arbitrary matter. It
makes sense. By simple, all
over lighting you give all of
your colors a chance to rise
up and be seen. The minute
you add a.n emphasis with spe
cial lighting, or throw in a
shadow for dramatic effect,
you complicate things; for the
colors do not behave as tones
of black-and-white do. .The col
ors take on totally new person
alities, in terms of value and
chroma, and may fall - com
pletely out of harmony with
your color scheme.
Illuminate your shadows,
don't let them go empty and
black. In -using both- Koda
chrome a.nd Kodacolor Films
you will discover that your
best pictures . . . especially
portraits . . . are made in sun
light when the sky is slightly
hazy rather than perfectly
clear. The same lens aperture
as for clear sun will usually
do.
While front lighting is pre
ferable, it need nol be full
front lighting. Even in color,
such lighting tends to be a lit
tle unhappy looking, especially
in shots of people. Let the sun
come in a little over your right
or left shoulder; in so doing
you gain facial modeling with
out sacrificing color and color
values. Close-ups made in
bright sunlight under a clear
blue sky may require a reflec
tor to throw light into the
shadow side.
In picturing groups, it is
even more important in color ,
than in black-e.nd-white work
to be sure that all the mem
bers of the group have about
the same light. If a few are
in heavy shade, while the
others are in direct sunlight,
your picture will not be satis
factory. While it is entirely possible
to capture the flaming beauty
of sunsets and sunrises with
Kodachrome. avoid making in
formal portraits by a low sun.
For sunlight is very orange
during the hour after sun-up
or sundown, and the faces of
people pictured at that time
will emerge unpleasantly
orange-red in hue. It is true
that some architectural, mountain-top
snow scenes, etc., are
beautifully enhanced by the
late sun, hut such results are
unpredictable and no specific
advise can be offered other
than to "try It and see." In all ,
color work, it is necessarily
important to remember that
your working light has not
only the power to produce an
image on the emulsion, hut it
also has a color and conse
quently b direct bearing n
your result.
Almost all cameras can use
some type or other of color
film. And there's a film type
for every lighting condition
Indoors, outdoors. Hash, f M'tJ.
you can shoot them all. And
of course, you'll find cameras
and films at the Camera Dept.
