Over the Northern The north entrance to is onen. ; Not so many years ago not merit much attention, "merit. Now, the item gets press. Generally, The Bulletin finds a spot for it on . page l, as happened tnis year. " There are several reasons for increased interest in the news of the opening of ca s far-famed caldera park. : terest because it marks the opening of the tourist Reason for Mid-Oregon towns along U. S. Highway 97. '- The north entrance to the park, via the Diamond Lake cutoff to the summit, then south to the stumps of old Mt. Mazama, is the logical approach for tourists who. corne west over northern continental routes. Also, as "an exit route from the park, it is an important feeder of traffic into U. S. 97. It is the United States, that flows .for night stops, or week-end ' But even more important entrance is the most spectacular approach to a park that has as its central feature a great blue lake cradled in a volcano that partly "blew its top." : Tourists from the west and south move into the park through the resort area, past buildings and through acres of parked cars. They find on the very bxink of the caldera a sprawling lodge. These build ings, parking areas and the primitive beauty of the : The motorist who drives into the park from the north swings his car-from the highway up a slight Incline, halts at a low parapet then looks through a crater-rim gap into an awesome blue lake, beautiful anct pristine in its wilderness . That view the north-entrance visitors get on their stop at the first approach spectacular as that obtained his reiiow prospectors when they halted their mules on the nearby timbered rim just 101 years ago this month. The prospectors called the vast volcanic basin Deep Blue Lake. It is a name that is still applicable when this jewel of. American parks is viewed for the first time, over the northern rim. ' The 18-Year-Old Voters Congress has rejected President' Eisenhower's pro posal to give eighteen-year-olds the right to vote. Ob servers believe that the main reason for the rejection was not opposition to the idea of lowering the voting rage but rather an insistence on the principle of states "rights as far as setting voting regulations is concerned. The Senators who opposed the idea on state rights principles may have been justified. In effect the failure of the President's proposal makes it incumbent upon the states to decide the issue for themselves. There is considerable eighteen-year-olds, who are considered old enough to -ftght for their country, should have the right, to help " decide the policies which itnay eventually lead them into having to do that. Polls have shown that mem bers of the 18-21 age group ness than their elders. ..States should not ignore the issue one way or the other it is their duty to. decide on it. If they do not, there will in time be another bid to have the federal government do the job. States rights should be held sacred and states have a duty to insist that they be so regarded. Yet when individual states fail to take necessary action to make needed reforms it is natural that there should be agi tation to have the federal government act. One of the best ways to preserve the rights of the states is to see - that no responsibilities are shirked on that level. Abuse of Franking T- The franking privilege, Congress to use the. mails , tul ends. It Is, however, frequently abused as was shown recently by the accounts of Congressman Yorty from ', California who mailed out 4,108,000 copies of a speech he made. That mailing resulted in postal costs of $119, Z 146.50. Used properly the franking privilege is justified. A "Z. congressman should not have to use his own funds to suppljt constituents with Information they request. Legislators have a great deal of correspondence which is conducted in line with too is an expense which should be paid for with public funds. mThe free use of the mails, however, imposes on the "-user the responsibility of being certain that the priv- "-ttpge Is not misused, that every piece of mail that biars the frank is an official communication to serve Ceed or a request. It should not lie used for personal "reasons or for conducting political campaigns.- 1 -Congressman Yorty was m spirit if not technically.

At least, however, the country will he able to defend itself. There is still an element in Japan which would like to see militarism return.

Nixon. . The old idea of a V. P. as a Thrott leboltom who had nothing lo do but preside lazily over the Senate has been completely eras ed since the now-41-yearold for mer junior senator from Califor nia took over the number two spot. A look nt the vice president's schedule for a recent week gives the picture. . It shows five White Iloirso con ferences, two radio-TV appeur- anccs, three scheduled speeches and remarks, three diplomatic functions, three other ceremonies, three appointments to pose for photographs with people who wanted their pictures taken with the vice president, six dinner and luncheon dales, , two receptions. All Ihis, plus n foVmal dinner and reception which the vice pres ident and Mrs. Nixon gave for some 50 congressional colleagues and their wives in the old 80th Congress "Chowder and March ing Club," three dates to shake hands wilh people from Califor nia, one tiimilnr function with distant relatives from Ohio, a flying trip to California to attend tho 20th anniversary reunion of his 19IM graduating class at Whit- tier College, and an afternoon of golf with the President. Oh, yes. He also presided over tho Senate several afternoons. But this schedule is by no means complete. The vice presi dent runs two offices. One is the V.P.'s traditional ceremonial of fice in Ihe Capitol, just back of his official chair on the rostrum of Ihe Senate Office Building. He keeps two ppointment cal endars. One is for his scheduled dates at the Capitol. The other is for his outside appointments. The secretaries who keep these books have to check with each other before they can sign up llieir man for nnything at all. And even Iheir lists of appointments com bined for the summary given above don't tell the whole story. The vice president sees a lot of people in the Capitol and ouLiide that he never tells his staff alxiu! at all. v There ore two reasons why the vice president Is called In on. all this sniff. The first reason is that President Eisenhower simply re fuses to lay nil Ihe cornerstones, raise all the flags, unveil all the statues and do all the other time- Tonsuming ceremonial chores that somehow go with' his job. The vice president takes Ihe over flow. Secondly. President Eisenhower is deliberately trying lo make Vice President Nixon, the best trained understudy the White House has ever had. This is to make sure there won't be another great vacuum like tune wns ati first when Vice President Harry S. Truman had to nssume the: presidency on Franklin I. Koose- velt s dctilh. . i It is, roughly, a H to 16-hei;; day job, six days a week, with a few overtime functions Mtmlay now and then.

Hut when he has a night off now and then he calls up a few friends and Ihey get together to talk politics, which is business. The social nick el, which ran be pretty Hying in Washington, he Nixons seem lo take in their stride. Some times the schedule calls for two receptions and -a dinner on Ihe same evening. The Vice President is pretty temperate. He takes a drink now Dove of Peace pjpjjjr and then, but usually, at cocktail parlies, both hands are free. He sometimes skips a course or two nt the heavier banquets. nut ne nas a gooci stomann, can eat irregularly without noticing it and sometimes he raids the ice- lx when he gets home nt night. For relaxation, he tries to gel in one afternoon of golf a week. He took up the game only after he became vico president. He has seldom if ever broken 90. He played with President Eis enhower last week for the first time this year, but they mostly talked politics between shots. The score wasn't announced.

TAKE HOME quarts of oft NO EXTRA bags ' I Bend To The Editor To the Editor: i 1 noted your recent editorial in reference to the milk Industry, the one that told the story of the wnitress who might receive the silver dollar for suggesting milk instead of soft drinks. Why pick on the beverage in dustry to solve the milk prob lem? enclosed is an article in the recent issue of one of the bever age industry's trade magazines. For your information one of Ore gon's largest distributors of milk and dairy products is also a bev erage bottler and beer distribu tor. Sincerely, Andrew A. Borillo. Bend, Oregon, June 18. 1954. In recent months, we've com. njented often on the fact we said fact that much of the' anti-soft drink . propaganda spread across Ihe country was inspired by the milk and lairy industry. There's no doubt about it; more and more the evidence is coming out into the open. The milk people in a midwest slate "advertised" their product by attacking soft drinks. The same thing, in as vitriolic, as distorted and as untrue as any thing in our experience, happened' wilhin the last month in Washing- j ton, D. C. The propaganda against! soft drink3 comes into being un-1 der the mistaken belief that soft drinks are milk's chief competi-j tor. This view is as twisted as thei "retaliatory" measures, since it: is based on envy of a better soil-1 ing job for a good product, and: better public acceptance. We can1 mid do envy the 800 cup per cap ita of coffee, but we den't attack it. We just go our own way trying to match it. . I Under other conditions, don't i know but what we might admire the attempt, if not Ihe method, for the dairy business, based as it is on milk and milk products, is in a depressed state. There's a sur plus of milk rind no easy way of slowing clown production, btoragc against future use is technically difficult and excessively costly. And all because people are peo ple, even milk producers. The P reported on May 4: "A pointed suggestion was made nt n meet ing of the State Milk Commission here (Ashoville, N. C.I yesterday. Milk producers ought to drink more milk. At a recent milk pro ducers' picnic, one dairyman pointed out he couldn't find a lx)ttle of milk anywhere. "Everybody," he observed ralh er sadly, "was drinking soda pop." . .

CHARGE for "Sure-Kold" it's another T ' Redmond S. Grant's We had a wonderful weekend oni Calico farnv pursuing our hob bies, Hiding, sunning and rock hunting. Riding the tractor, that is, ana tolling in the sun, gather ing the rocks It unearthed. There are rocks of all sizes and shapes. All very interesting. We made two little rock piles on high spots in the field, so the gophers will have some place t hide from the dogs. . Those does are characters, tor fair. They fancy that they can dig faster than the rodents. They uncovered several gopher colon ics, but tired of the sport before the holes were large enough for any useful purpose, like burying elephants. The field looked beautiful, when the Chief finished smoothing it with the home-made land level. That level is an ingenious device. The Chief raises and lowers it by means of blocks of wood, tucked under an appropriately located loop of bailing wire. Practically no possibility of mechanical breakdown. Every day is dairy day, out on the farm, but this is Juno Dairy Month, and a good time to give the bossy cows their Just desuerts. (Dairy desserts, of course.) We would like to do something for Amber and But tercup to show them how much we think of them, but so far, we haven't come up with any terrif io idcori. I don't suppose It would be practical to invito some of the neighbor cows over for' a party. Speaking of Dairy Month, now is a good time to get acquainted with a new kind of cheese.. Al though cheese is sold under sev eral hundred different names there are-only about 19 distinct types to choose from, according to the Oregon Dairy Council. Cheese is nutritious, delicious and non-fattening. And what more could you ask? The public is get ting more cheese-conscious, ac cording to statisticians, who love to figure things out. They have determined tha the United States citizen ot today eats 33 per cent more cheese than his father did in 1925. This fact is substantiated by government tables which show the per person consumption of cheese to be 7.1 pounds in 19&3 as against only 4 ',4 pounds in 1925.
