India's Position
Stated by Nehru
afternoon to address the stu
dents and faculty there.
1 k.
The archduke, who has been
gone from his native Austria
since 1846, and was living in
Paris, gives much credit to the
Marshall plan for the improved
conditions In Europe. Also laud
ed for the support that they
have given Europe, especially its
morale, is the Atlantic pact and
the arms aid bill.
Otto's brother was in Salem
shortly after the end of the war.
and advocated the formation of
a United States of Europe. Otto
felt that the unity was being
accomplished.
He spoke encouragingly and
enthusiastically of the meeting
of representatives of countries
of western Europe held at Straus-
berg the past summer.
The most encouraging sign of
the meeting and one that he felt
gave evidence that a United
States of Europe could be ac
complished, was the fact that
for the first time in the his
tory of Europe delegates did not
vote along national lines. Rath
er it was the political parties that
influenced their votes.
United States of Europe can
never be accomplished, however,
according to Otto, until East
ern Europe is liberated. When
this happens, he says, the Mar
shall plan can be discontinued
within four to eight months
and Europe will become self
sufficient, for it is in eastern
Europe that the raw materials
and food for all of Europe Is
found.
Washington, Oct. 13 (PI In
dia's Prime Minister Nehru as
lured congress today that his
country "cannot be and shall not
be neutral in the event of any
world aggression or- threat to
freedom.
But he declared, In Identical
speeches prepared for the house
and senate, that "every prayer
that an Indian raises ends with
an invocation to peace" and he
indicated a possible parallel be
tween India's foreign policy and
Mahatma Gandhi s creed of pass
ive resistance.
The "father of India," said
Nehru in his prepared address,
"taught us a technique of action
which was peaceful, and yet it
was effective and yielded results
which led us not only to free
dom but to friendship with those
with whom we were until yes
terday In conflict.
"How far can that principle
be applied to wider spheres of
action? I do not know. For cir
cumstances differ and the means
to prevent evil have to be shaped
and set to the nature of the evil.
"Yet I have no doubt that the
basic approach which lay behind
that technique of action was the
right approach In human affairs
and the only approach that ulti
mately solves a problem satis
factorily." Microfilm State
Income Tax Returns
More than 1,500,000 state in
come tax returns will be micro
filmed to make a lot of space
available for tax commission
employes, the commission said
today.
In the future, all returns will
be kept four years before they
are put on microfilm. The 1,
500,000 returns to be filmed
immediately are more than four
years old.
The film will be sent to Port
land for developing, and will be
returned to the Salem office.
Waterways
Bill Goes Over
Washington, Oct. 13 (Pi Ma
jority Leader Lucas (D. 111.) told
the senate today action on the
$1,500,000,000 omnibus rivers
and harbors and flood control
authorization bill will be post
poned until the next session of
congress in January.
Lucas said Chairman Chavez
(D., N.M.) of the senate public
works committee had notified
him of his decision not to call
up the bill this year.
He said Chavez Informed him
there is disagreement with the
two Washington senators, Mag
nuson (O. and Cain (Ft.), who
want Columbia river basin pros
pects added to the bill. Chavez
said bringing up the bill now
would result in too much debate.
Chavez left today to sail for
Europe as a member of the sen
ate appropriations committee. It
was said Chairman Whittington
(D., Miss.) of the house public
works committee agreed to the
postponement.
The omnibus bill was passed
by the house earlier this year
It would authorize hundreds of
projects throughout the country
but appropriate no money to pay
for the work.
Congress last week completed
action on another measure the
annual army civil functions ap
propriations bill. It would ap
propriate $634,000,000 for flood
control and rivers and harbors
projects of the army engineers
in the fiscal year ending next
June 30.
This bill now awaits President
Truman's action.
The record books say that the
Dempsey - Carpentier fight on
July 2, 1021, was the the first
heavyweight championship to be
broadcast.

Bell, a former resident of Sa
lem, said installment buying had
been denounced and praised by
individuals and organizations,
but as for himself he thought
the practice had been of great
economic value to the nation.
While some lending agencies
may have extended too much
credit, Bell said that 95 percent
of the borrowers repay their
loans without the necessity of
field representatives.
Canada Rejects
Alaska Railroad
Ottawa, Oct. 13 (CP) The
federal government has consid
ered and rejected the idea of
helping provide a rail link be
tween British Columbia and
Alaska, informed quarters said
today.
The idea came up for specula
tion because of the arrival here
of British Columbia's Premier
Johnson. He came here from
Washington where he had gone
at the invitation of Senator War
ren Magnuson of Seattle, cham
pion of the proposal.
Sources close to him said his
visit to Washington has not
changed his view that the rail
proposal is a federal responsi
bility as far as Canada is con
cerned. A federal official said the gov
ernment already has considered
the proposal to spread a net
work of lines through northern
B. C, Yukon and Alaska Terri
tory. One of its major advan
tages would be a vital transpor
tation link in defense of the
continent.
The government's feeling,
however, was that the cost
would not be justified.
"The government d o e s n't
feel," the official said, "that the
existing road, rail and water fa
cilities are being utilized to
their utmost."
