Bateson struck out against bureaucracy as something "I d like to avoid" In a talk which gave his views oh the economic future of Marlon county. He emphasized that something positive should be done to en courage enterprise and oppor tunity, especially for the small businessman and farmer. Tying his views in with facts on Marion county, Bateson said he estimated that 15 per cent of the county's 100,000 plus popula tion was engaged directly in ag riculture. He pointed out, how ever, that the agricultural fron tier of the county was all but gone. "With diminishing opportun ity comes an increased cry for security something which can never be had. It can be wiped out by Inflation or a change of government policy," Bateson said. He claimed, however, that op portunity on Marion county's farms could be Increased by de velopment of an Irrigated econ omy. He also suggested that small farmers and businessmen could be aided by tax laws which would permit them to build cap ital reserves. It was the second time with in as many weeks that the Ex change club heard from demo cratic party speakers both of whom strayed from the party line to shake a verbal finger at national practice. The first was Luis Martine Lally, Marion county democratic central committee chairman, who said he didn t care whether Tru man was elected again or not. His talk was aimed at sponsor ing the principle! of the two party system.

Waterloo Only Wants Traffic Protection Lebanon Seeking to reacti vate Waterloo's incorporated status of 1893, a mass meeting last Friday night brought out most of the village's adult citi zens, to hear their problems out- Jned by Kenneth Wllshire, Leb anon attorney.
