DESPITE PREDICTED SETBACK
Industry, Business in State
Hit Record in Past Year
By WILL AIM WARREN
(United PreM Buff corrupoodent)
Oregon is growing up In a big industrial and business way,
a growth that reached record proportions over the past year
despite predictions of a temporary setback.
State Corporations Commissioner Maurice Hudson told Gov.
Douglas McKay in his annual report today that the number of
of corporations doing business-
in Oregon as of June du,
was at an all-time high.
Morale was good and "shen
anigans" among dealeri and
salesmen were few.
The report covered the cor
poration's fiscal year, ended last
June 30.
It showed that the number of
domestic corporations organized
for profit on that date totaled
6,005, an increase of 352 over
the number of record June 30,
1948, the previous record high.
There were 1,268 foreign (out-of-state)
corporations organized
for profit and doing business in
Oregon June 30, 1949, or 75
more than of record June 30,
1948. .
The department's receipts for
the year ended last June 30,
reached a hefty new record total
of $467,898.68. That compared
with $438,858.68 June 30, 1948
and $303,811.70 June 30, 1944.
Because of the need for more
help to handle the Increasing
business, expenditures also
went up, reaching $67,888 for
the year ended last June 3u,
compared with $54,078 for the
previous year.
Hudson stilted in his report:
"The field of securities In
vestment in Oregon was increas
ed in breadth and Importance
with the present growth of in
dustry and population within
the state."
Noting that his department,
besides examining securities
for the purpose of registration,
also supervises registration and
activities of dealers and sales
men, Hudson said:
"Instances of misconduct by
registered dealers and salesmen
have been few, but such as have
occurred were Immediately re
ferred to the appropriate district
attorneys and indictments lot
lowed."
The savings and loan activi
ties in Oregon have shown a
healthy advance, said Hudson.
He stated:
"In spite of predictions by
mait business indicators of a
downward trend, savings and
loan associations have shown a
healthy, conservative increase
in both savings certificates and
total assets.
The Indications are, Hudson
said, that business In Oregon Is
good, and growing.

Lebanon Area
Seeks Merger
Lebanon A petition seeking
exclusion of a small area from
proposed annexation to the city
at the election on Nov. 22, was
refused by the city council at
the meeting this week. The pe
tition represented 21 small
property owners on the north
west edge of town.
The petitioners pointed out
that they lived on plots of
ground from one-half to two
acres, engaged in small farming
and did not feel they were need
ed in the area to be annexed.
The council, however, after con
sideration, went on with plans
for conducting a vote in the en
tire area originally described as
the Strawberry precinct.
A resolution of the council
shifted monies from the building
sinking fund to the civic im
provement fund. Directions
were also given the public im
provement committee to study
the advisability of pouring ce
ment sidewalks on public prop
erty within the city limits.
Approval was given the report
of Fire Chief Elmer Fitzgerald,
who announced only two fires
of consequence during the
month. It was termed one of the
finest reports in several years.
Summary of Chief of Police
Cliff Price's report showed a
very small number of arrests,
and only a few for major viola
tions.
At the close of general busi
ness the council declared a clos
ed meeting and a long session
was held unattended by the pub

Cordon Pictures Challenge
Facing Republican Party
By JAMES D. OLSON
The greatest challenge faced
if to bring about a return 10 consuiuiionai representative gov
ornmpnt fashioned by our forefathers.
This was the message given
Cordon to Oregon Republican
ner In
the Chamber oi wm
merce Friday night
We must replace a govern
ment of rjaternalism, that if con
tinued, will in the end rob the
people of this nation oi tneir in
herent rights and freedom" h
said.
Don Eva. of Portland, vice
chairman of the convention com
mittee as toastmaster, first in
troduced all at the speakers-
tables and then selected promin
ent workers from the floor for in
troduction. The meeting was op
ened with invocation by the Rev
George Swift, rector of St. Paul's
Episcopal church, Salem. He
then introduced me principal
speaker.
Senator Cordon declared that
the United States was the land of
promise to which people sailed
in little ships irom me oia
world, people who sought free
dom.
'Our country" he said "was
the only one in world's history
where the individual was free
where a government was set
up by the people, a government
that was a servant of its crea
tors."
He told of the tremendous
material advances made in the
United States, advances far in
excess of anything in recorded
history. And he held that these
advances had ben made even
though the older countries had
the same opportunities in talent,
universities and science, only
because the minds of the people
of this land were free.
"Every person in this land
knew he could create and keep
what he had created" said Cor
don. "He knew he would not
be lashed" The Christian relig
ion found a land where people
could worship in accordance
with their consciences.
Warning of the menance of
subversive groups, Cordon de
clared that there were people
in this country today who would
destroy all, from the church to
the schools, from the police
court to the highest court, and
from the village council to the
houses of congress.
And they are endeavoring to
do this by chicanery, trickery
or any other means known" he
said.
Cordon said that for a long
Deriod of time the United States
had nothing to think of but it
self. But, he added, we came out
of the second world war the
leading nation in the world, the
only nation solvent and the only
nation with productive capacity
not alone for itself but for much
of the world as well.
"We cannot make any changes.
even in domestic attairs today
without its repercussions felt
around the world" he said.
He told the 300 diners the re
publication party must chart its
course with all the wisdom, all
the patriotism, all the ability that
all our souls are capable of
and thus carry the torch of
freedom forward.
He held that the republicans
were faced with the challenge
of bringing a return of that sort
of a government pictured by
Abraham Lincoln a government
of the people, by the people and
for the people and not allow this
country to be run by the whim
or caprice of any man, any dic
tator or any group that strived
for statism.
"Let us go forward as free
men," he added, "without sacri
ficing the right to say yes or no."
Sen. Cordon said he had heard
a great deal about the republi
can party's need of being con
structive and not opposing the
other side.
"But" he asked "how are we
going to be for a free America
and not be against slavery?
How are we going to be for free
enterprise and not be against
socialism."
In closing he said the job be
fore the party now does not
rest with elected or appointed1

Send Communists to Poland
Advice of Writer for Press
Fort Worth, Tex., Nov. 5 ' The foreign correspondent in
communist-run Poland today finds his news sources are constantly
disappearing, Larry Allen, Associated Press correspondent from
Warsaw, said tooay.
"Freedom to write and send
nothing if you can't get the
you
news," Allen, a Pulitzer prize
winner, told the 16th annual
meeting of the Associated Press
Managing Editors association.
"Any Pole who becomes
friendly with an American or
any representative of the west
ern press soon vanishes," Allen
said in an address prepared for
delivery this afternoon.
When the government is ask
ed what's happened, the answer
is: 'They were arrested, but not
because of their association with
you. They were arrested be
cause they were connected with
the underground or engaged in
anti-state activity.' "
Allen told of wretchedness in
Poland poverty and fear and
snort rations.
"If I had my way, any man in
America with communist lean
ings would be given transporta
tion to Poland or any other
communist-held country and
forced to stay a year," he said.
"I guarantee that man would
come back to America and kiss
the ground he walks on,
If there Is to be a war with
Russia, Allen thinks it will come
by the end of 1952.
"I have three reasons for
thinking this. By that time,
Russia will have a supply of
atomic bombs. Secondly, the
Russians feel that Americans are
disunited during any presidential-
election year. Thirdly, the
Russians believe that Marshal-
plan aid will run dry about that
time. They thing we can't keep
on pumping money into Europe.
When our financial aid to Euro
pean countries is at an end, it
will be much easier for them to
step in and take over."
Allen is one of two AP foreign
correspondents to address the
convention. Seymour Topping,
formerly AP correspondent in
Nanking and recently attached
to the Hong Kong bureau, will
speak Saturday, final day of the
meeting.
Special electric cables have
been developed for use in hot
beds.
Holly Says:
No need to wait until the very thought of K
Christmas being only two days away sends
that droopy feeling down to your tummy ('
and gives you that "now what will I do f
when I can't do anything" feeling. fj
Right now November, Is the time to do j
your Christmas buying. Be smart, come in ff
and choose your gifts, get just what you jfi
want while the stock Is in good assortment. f
Pay whatever you wish and we will not S
only put your gifts away from peering eyes V
and itching fingers until Christmas but we
will even wrap them all pretty for you and f',
at no extra cost, f '
