. STEVENSON AND THE PRESS
It was intereaing, after hearing the reluctant Stevenson
indict the newspapers of America as being free, to open the
latest issue of Editor and Publisher, trade journal of the
newspaper world, and find the figures of the presidential
polls it had taken beginning in 1932. It had been tne ateven-
son complaint that "the overwhelming majority of the news
papers of the country are supporting the opposition
candidate" and the E & P current poll showed this, indeed,
to be the fact. Showed it, that is, as to the daily papers and
it is assumed that it was the dailies that Stevenson had in
mind. Apparently weekly papers, important though they are,
are not present in the candidate's thinking. According to E
& P 690 dailies are for Eisenhower and 142 for Stevenson.
There are 86 independent or undecided thus making the per
centages 75.16, 15.47 and 9.37.
v Possibly it was these figures about which Stevenson
! spoke and, of course, they sustain him but and now to the
significant fact such an overwhelming majority has not
alwavs been the case. Had Stevenson looked at the record
he would not have said, "It would seem that the overwhelming
majority is just against Democrats" nor would he have ex
pressed concern over seeing, as he put it, "the extent to which
we are developing a 1-party press in a 2-party country."
The "overwhelming majority" "against Democrats" (for
president) that bothers Mr. Unwilling has developed in the
past 20 years. This, the Editor & Publisher poll shows,
has developed only as a reaction to and the result of Demo
cratic misrule .
In 1932, according to the E & P polls the support for the
nominees was Republican 55.5 per cent and Democratic 38.7.
In 1936 the change began and the figures were-Republican,
60.4 and Democratic, 84.5. In 1940 they were Republican,
66.3 and Democratic, 20.1.- There was a slight reversal in 1944,
presumably because of the war, and the Republican figure
dropped back to 60.1 while the Democratic rose to 22.0. Four
years ago the poll (in October) showed Republican 65.17
per cent and Democratic 16.88. These are the figures for
Stevenson to look at. If he does so he will realize that the
current total of 75.16 per cent of dailies does not have the
meaning that he gave it on Monday. Rather it expresses
the newspaper revulsion to the Washington-Democratic sit
uation that the candidate joins in calling a "mess."
Not only is Stevenson wrong in his reading of the cause
and the meaning of newspaper support for, Eisenhower. He
is wrong when he says that "the overwhelming majority of
the press is just against Democrats .... automatically (and
here is the wise crack) as dogs are against cats." ,
Editor & Publisher, also publishes an annual yearbook.
That for 1952 contains a tabulation of the country's daily
newspapers.. There are 1568 in the list and they have reported
themselves politically thus :
Republican 189, Independent Republican 281, Democratic
iou. iiiuuuenueni iiemocrac zio ana independent 738.
The total of the Republican and Independent Republican
papers is 470 or approximately 80 per cent of all. The total
Democratic and Independent Democratic is 365 or 23 per cent
and the 753 Independents make 47 per cent, a figure greater
than that of either of the other two groups.
We shall grant that the 470 Republicans and Independent
Republican papers are "against Democrats" automatically,
rhat 30 per cent, however, is ho overwhelming majority.
It's a pitiful minoritVi v
But let us go back to that E & P poll and observe that 690
dailies are for Eisenhower That figure is 220 more than there
arc in that assumed automatically anti-Democratic group.
Obviously , there are Democrats and Independents in the
figure. -:'
These figures make it clear that by no means does the
country have a "1-party press in a 2-party country," as Stev
enson put it. We have a press that 1b not at all tied to a single
party nor is it automatically against Democrats. It is free
, and the figures show the fact. And, also, they somewhat mess

Prineville Man
Construction of tho projected
Prineville dam on the Crooked
river approximately 20 miles
soutli of Prineville will aid In re-
claiming many acres of arid land
in uesenutes and Jefferson coun
ties as well as In Crook county.
This was the prophecy voiced yes
terday by Joe D. Thomlson, secre
tary of the Prinnville-Crook Coun
ty Chamber of Commerce, In a
talk before the Dend Kotary club.
Some of the water made avail
able by this dam will he diverted
into tne north unit project In Jef
ferson county, and In turn, the
north unit water from Wickiup
. dam can be diverted to other
acres in Deschutes county as well
as to the -Powell Butte area of
erook county, Thomlson said
The speaker revealed that
every effort will be made at the
lortncomlng session of conRrcss
to ontam an appropriation In or
der that preliminary work on the
Prineville dam might be under
taken. -
Thomlson also gave some of
the early history of the Central
Oregon country when Bend, Red
mond, and Madras were all a part
of the sprawling Crook county.
, He said Crook county had every
reason to be proud of tho "chil
dren" who had grown and pros
pered since leaving the protection
' of the mother county.
., The speaker was lavish In his
j praise of the Bend Rotnrv club
i for lnauguratlne tho 4-H fat stock
show two years ago. He said the
young people of his countv creat-
, ly appreciated this opportunity to
how their stock each year at the
Bend show and sale.

Picnic In Pontiac, Michigan, that it was too- wet to listen to political

County Agent
NEWS
By GENE LEAR
Penchuteti County Agent
After Elmer Johnson finished
making field inspections for potato
certification last week, I asked him
what he considered the most serious
disease that we have in our po
tatoes. Without any hesitation El
mer replied bacterial ring rot! I
had thought he might say late
breaking virus. The late breaking
virus disease has recently shown
up in many fields, and quite a
high percentage of some, in Jef
ferson County. A few years ago,
1946 I believe, it hit in Deschutes
and Crook counties and has been
with us ever since in more or less
amounts.
There are a few potato fields in
Central Oregon now that have ring
rot. With proper precautions among
growers and handlers the amount
of it con be reduced or entirely
eliminated. Russ Stanard, ship
ping point inspector, has just hand
ed me a list that contains the names
of five Central Oregon growers
who planted seed known to have
ring rot. In addition Russ' reports
show three growers who marketed
potatoes last fall or winter that
had a small amount of ring rot in
them, .. - - .- ''
These Erowers are located In six
different communities in the three;
counties. I mention this to indicate
to all potato growers it is time to
be careful. In addition to the
known lots that are affected with
the disease others have planted
seed from the same lots who are
not known.
. I mention this at this time for
several rea'sons." In the first place
to say seed should not be suved
from any lot known to have ring
rot. Three growers I know of have
tried to pick it all out when cutting
the seed. This doesn't work. It ap
parently isn't possible to get It all
out of the seed, even If the cutting
knives are disinfected after each
seed piece is cut. Many growers
hanl their drop seed or size B po
tatoes home after they have gone
over the graders in a publio ware
house. One of the growers who has
the disease now thinks mat is where
he got the disease.
The ring rot disease is so easily
spread and so contagious that it is
very difficult to find out just how
it has spread in many cases. It
is known that sacks are frequently
the carriers but trucks and other
equipment can be the offender.
Seed is the worst offender and so
every effort should be taken to be
sure seed free of the disease is
planted.
Another reason for mentioning the
disease at this time is so that we
will all take the necessary precau
tions to see that it is not carried
from one place to another on shoes,
clothing, pocket knives, "or field
sacks that may have been used
by others.
a a .
It would be a help in preventing
spread if the known infected lots
were graded on the farms where
grown -rather than being hauled to
a public warehouse.
OSC pathologists Roy Young and
Jack Milbuath say "once the dis
ease is introduced Into an area,
it will build up rapidly unless con
trol practices are rigidly carried
out. The amount of ring rot in a
seed lot may increase from a trace
to as much as 50 .to 60 percent in
a single season." The bulletin writ
ten in 1952 by these pathologist de
scribes how to prevent and control
the disease. .
Jet Plane Beats
Its Own Sound
SCHENECTADY, N. Y. -A
high speed Jet plane may get ahead
of its own sound, scientists of the
General Electric research labora
tory find. ' '
. Their conclusions are as follows:
Sound travels about 750 miles
per hour', so if a plane were travel
ing at 1,000 miles per hour it would
on rnnidlv ahead of its own sound.
If such a plane were diving to
ward you, It would nit you oeiore
you heard it coming. .
if i veered off lust before it
reached you' you would first hear
the sound from the point of closest
approach, and it would be very
loud. Then you would hear the
sounds from the parts of its path
farther back, as well as those
ahead, and they would get fainter
on-nriiinllv. It would be something
like the sound of an explosion, sud
den and loud at first, and gradual
ly dying out. If the plane came to
ward you at exaciiy boihu spew,
tho sound waves emanating from
all parts of the path of approach
would reach you at once, in a very
brief, sharp report.

Hie newspapers of the nation are

Now, the argument is raging as to
whether Stevenson, the Chicago

demonstrate his affinity for. the
"common man" or whether he is
just careless aliout his dress.
We don't know the answer, of
