THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND, OREGON ' nt?o Vim mrrvinn . - In the past few days petitions to place the name of Dwight D. Eisenhower on the Republican primary ballot for the presidential nomination have' been circulated here. The response, as we think most would have predicted, has been favorable, but reports by those Interviewing prospective signers indicate both a lack of knowledge and a desire for information as to the candidate's social and political beliefs and his attitude on uomesuc wuw. , .

It follows that they i - I a j:i,t ft,..wittAn Panatifinn flfi ovprv flliee.PHH lul advertiser knows, is a necessary adjunct to a retentive memory. 1 , .. , Nevertheless Dwight D. Eisenhower is on record and the record is peculiarly significant in the fact that it was made months before any civil political responsibility had been accepted. Some samples from the record are in order. . Regarding the socialistic trend so apparent under the present administration, he warned three years ago at a Co lumbia college forum ; If we allow this constant drift toward centralized burcauoratlo ' government to continue, finally the governmental function will bo expressed in terms far exceeding the necessary one of laying . ; down Ihe rules and laws for governing each of us in his dally :. actions to Insure that we do not take unfair advantage of our com- 1 rades and other citizens. Government will be the actual field of operation. There will be a swarming of bureaucrats over the land. Ownership of property will gradually drift Into that central gov ornmont and finally you would have to have dictatorship as the ' only means of operating such a huge and great organization. Pretty definite, that. Even more pointed was this state ment, made also in 1949 in, an address to the Saint Andrews society : ' . ' ' . . ' - ; . Jefferson, a man we recognize as the great liberal of. his time, . said, "The best government is the least government." Now we rec ' ognize the degree to which we have changed when we come to ' see that the nefinitlon of a liberal is a man who, in Washington, wante to play the Alipighty with pur money. . -- In 1948, on the occasion of his' installation as president of Columbia, Eisenhower enriched the record with his. opinion of communism and fascism in the following sound pronounce. . ment: 'v.. . ", ;.' '. ' 1 ,. ' : .: The truth about communism Is, today, an Indispensable require ment if the true values of our democratic system are to be prop erly assessed. Ignorance of communism,, fascism, or any other police-state philosophy is far more dangerous than ignorance of the most virulent disease, .., As a military expert, General Eisenhower has been and is closely identified with theeffort -toi-coordinate the defense of western Europe under the North Atlantic Treaty organi zation and, In Washington in February, 1951, he told the United States .congress : . , Western Europe is so important to our future, our future is so definitely tied up with them that wd cannot afford to do less than our best in making sure that it docs not go down the drain. Rut while thus endorsing military aid he repudiated the idea thnt the United States "can pick up the world on its economic, finnnciul and military shoulders and carry it." As to Korea, he stated in 1950 that the American decision to resist the invasion of South Korea was "inescapable." On corruption in government, this, in 1950 : Eft It would do no good to defend our liberties against communist aggression and lose them to our own greed, blindness or shiftless reliance on bureaucracy and the federal treasury. ' On taxation, later in the same year : How far can a government go in taxing away properly rights and si 111 not li iive the government the master of the people instead of their servant? And on inflation, in a 1950 address at Columbiu ; ' Inflation, 'born of Ihe unbalanced budget nullities every in come gain of worker and farmer. Yes, Dwight. I). Eisenhower is on record, definitely so, even if his utterances in the post-war years have been some what overlooked. The samples in the foregoing paragraphs arc offered in evidence and the evidence, as it seems to us, is well worth considering. ilitmiiiiiifiiiiiuiiiimiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiifimiiii WASHINGTON COLUMN By Peter Edaoa (NLA Waankwton CmtponitU) NiitimiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiilniiiitiiiiliiiuiviiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiuuiiiiNijiiuiMliuiuiii WASHINGTON (NEA) Brief cable mention that an American ex-Air Force technical sergeant had-been seriously wounded In Hukbalahap lighting.

"When I came back to the Islands," he said, "I left my parents and my brother in the States. I took a native wife so I would have no divided Interest.". Toaether they went into the hills, the Sierra Madre mountains and the Tanay mountains east of Manila, which have been wuk strongholds. '- Intelligence reports of the Phil ippine .army, chasing the Huks, soon placed Pomeroy and his wife as No. 12 Wl 13 In the Commu nist heirarchy. The Philippine army has had offers of $50,000 a head on the top Huk leaders Dr. Jose Lava, Luis Tarue, Guellermo Capado- cia dead or alive. But they never put a price on the Pomeroys. They are believed to be active principally as educational leaders. They reportedly, taught in Sta lin university, the Huk training school.- , Most recent reports have had We're Asleep at f he Switch lly Oswald West i (Kvinvcrnnr of Oregon) I Fortunately, we adopted a Fifth Amendment lo our Federal Con stitution which prowdes that: No person shall . . . .be de deprived of his . . . properly without due process of law; nor shall private property be Inkcn for public use without just compensa tion. And to further our good fortune In the West, Congress approved: The Oonrrt I .and Ai-t of 1817 The purpose ot litis measure was to modify the old Common Law rule in reriparian rights and, as to public lands patented lifter the above dnle, lo free appurtenant waters, in order that they might become subject to aipropriation and use, elsewhere, for mining, ir rigation and hydro power develop ment. Thus the way opened for Ihe adoption of slale water codes, nd judicntoin. at one lime, of lite rights of all claimants on a stream, and Ute recording of water titles. So, before accenting C. Girard IJehbyl Davidson's recommenda tion that Oregon waters be diverted south for uses in California, let us take a look at what other bright young political pet lawyers are un dertaking lo do lo stale's rights In Californiaand indirectly to those in Oregon. 1M3 Shortly afler Pearl Harbor, or on January 21. 1942. Ihe Navy De partment, through Ihe Deparlment . of Justice, moved, in Southern Cal ifornia, to acquire around DIM acres of Ihe old Santa Margarita Kancho, for a naval ' ammunilinn depot. Tne procedure then, how ever, was smelly in accordance with the "Law of the Land." The U. S. Attorney General, while ad vising thai it had become neces sary lo acquire Ihe property through the exercise of the gov ernment's power of eminent do main, gave assurances that all properly owners concerned would be justly compensated. 11134 Some time later, for Ihe purpose of establishing Camp Pendleton, a Marine camp near Oceanside and Fnllbrook. Calif., Hie government grabbed 12.1,600 more Kancho San ta Margarita acres displacing 14, 000 owners of land and long cslab llshed water rights. Acling, how ever, upon the advice of a group of legal "shave tails", Attorney general McGrath ictuses lo recog nize any claimed waler rights; and has instituted a gigantic suit to nullify all such claims ami without compensating the owners. Says the Attorney General's leading legal "shave lull": "We are going lo litigate Ihe question ot whether California stale laws, for the administration of water rights, supercede the constitution ai law of the government, in re gard lo exclusive jurisdiction." So. they propose lo seize llieie Santa I Margarita waler rights land with out compensating Ihe owners) un der a doctrine of "paramount" and "sovereign" federal powers.

Then at the end of January came a report that he was ser iously wounded while leading" his group to a Huk conference in central Luzon, U. S. Army records piece out the background of the story. He was born at Waterloo, N. Y., Nov. 25, 1916. He was drafted at Roch ester in October, 1942, When he was 25 years old. He .was shipped out of Califor nia for the Pacific theater, and debarked first at Brisbane in De cember," 1943. He was assigned to the tlltn uomoer uroup as an aviation and engineering mechan ic.
