23 County Farm Bureaus to
Review Reapportionment Plans
Twenty-three county farm bureaus will review plans of re
apportionment of the Oregon legislature.
Representative Giles French, Sherman county publisher, agreed
to withdraw his "federal" plan in view of overwhelming odds
against its success. French stated, "If I am relieved of my re
nnnsihilitv tn the Oreffon farm-
bureau federation, the wheatiDcro RaMufin frt
League and the County Judges IxUJJCIi UCIIUWIII IU
association, I will be glad to
throw the full weight of my sup
port behind the compromise pro-
posal. '
French's statement was made
at a Portland meeting of the
legislative and tax committee of
the Oregon farm bureau, on
January 28. Senators Rand of
Multnomah, Marsh of Yamhill,
Patterson of Washington and
Representatives Cater of Um
tilla, Sells of Wasco and Shep
pard of Columbia presented their
opinions on the compromise
proposal at the meeting, Re
ported as favoring the compro
mise were Representatives Short
of Deschutes, Geary, Semon and
Hitchcock of Klamath.
The farm bureau legislative
and tax committee report will
be made available to county farm
bureaus on February 2. General
opinion of the committee is, (1)
The "federal" plan, allowing one
enator to every county, will
draw opposition from metro
politan areas and insufficient
support from western Oregon
counties and the press to stand
any chance of success. (2) The
"compromise" plan, representing
both population and area on a
basis of one representative to
every county, the rest of the
house and the senate apportioned
to according to population, then
most favorable protection of
rural voting powers that will be
politically practical.
The compromise plan, some
times called the "balanced rep
resentation" or the "Mark Hat
field" plan originated in tho
policy committee of the young
republicans and currently re
ceives support and attention
from the young democrats as
well as large sections of the
Oregon Press.
Representative French was
given credit by legislators and
farm bureau committee members
for fathering the idea of a bal
anced representation in the Ore
gon legislature. Farm bureau
president, Lowell Steen, said
that without the "federal" plan
proposed by Giles French the
compromise plan could never
have been developed.
The final stand of the power
ful Oregon farm bureau feder
ation will not be known 'til the
twenty-three affiliated county
farm bureaus have reported their
decision.

Fifty Years Reviewed in
World Almanac Foreword
Information from all parts of the world and on almost every
subject imaginable is contained in the 1950 World Almanac,
copies of which have recently been received in Salem.
Opening subject in the book is the 50 years that have virtu
ally changed the fortunes of the U. S. and turned the world
upside down. '
The Almanac in its survey
lists 34 republics established
within that time against the
eight abolished, while it finds 21
monarchies abolished and six established.
In surveying the balance sheet
of half a century the World Al
manac recognizes out of world
turmoil six major movements
that carry their influences into
the second half of the 20th century.
Listed are:
1. Rise of world co-operation
to avoid war, insure peace.
2. Russian Revolution and its
momentous results.
3. Rise of the United States
as a world power.
4. Destruction of Germany,
A us t r i a - Hungary, Sultanate
Turkey and the rise of national-
n.
5. Decline of British imperial
power.
6. Westernization of the Far
East.
Having as its principal busi
ness the recording of the results
of human and natural activities
of 1849 in such succinct form
that the average reader may
grasp their import quickly with
out confusion, the 1950 World
Almanac includes the govern
ment of the United States, its
departments and organization,
domestic issues holding the at
tention of the Americans and de
velopments through out the
world, Including the United Nations.
Of historial importance is a
new section called "Highlights
of World War II," derived from
official sources. The steady
progress of science in combating
diseases is given space, along
with taxes, list of major state
officials and election results.
Everything from religion to
sports is covered and if one
wishes he can even find out how !
many Americans are flying pri
vate planes today and what's
going on in jet propulsion. I
