Br UU Outildi Ortion; Uonthlr, ll.ni au Mouth!, 740; NEARLY 700 NEW LAWS I The 1953 Oregon legislative session adjourned at the close of its 100th day, having passed nearly 700 bills of tne izb3 introduced to set a new record. Governor Pat- terson has already signed 434 of them into law. The 1951 session lasted 116 days, passing 645 bills of the 1214 in troduced. Unless some rational limit is placed on the in troduction of so many needless and unnecessary bills, en forcing wasted and costly time, legislative sessions of the future will increase in length and costs. It is a little early to correctly summarize the session's record as perspective of time is necessary to discover the special interest jokers and grabs slipped through which always materialize later but the legislative record seems s fair one though there is so necessity of so many new laws to add to legal confusion. ihe legislature balanced the budget for the coming bienmum beginning July 1, but it is based on high income taxes and a business recession could place it in the red. New tax exemptions to conform with the federal $600 exemption will decrease revenue somewhat, but it is jus ticiable. The Associated Press compiles the 10 most important accomplishments of tne session as follows 1. Expand Oregon's teacher training program by adding train' Ing of high ichool teacher and liberal arts counes at tne col leges of education, adding elementary training at the unlverilty and state colleges, and provide four-year liberal arts courses ana teacher training at Portland State College. .. 2. Simplify the state's tax system by putting income tax re celpts Into the state's general fund. 3. Make It illegal for public eating, lodging and amusement puices to aucrimtnaie against minority groups. 4.

( WHERE THE MINORITY RULES You may recall our comment on Malan's victory in South Africa immediately following the election there, we voiced regret and predicted that it forecasted eventual tragedy for both colored and white people there. But we assumed at the time that the vote at least rep resented the views of a majority of the 2,500,000 white persons living in that country. Ten mililon colored peo ple were not allowed to vote. . However, it develops that Malan's opposition cast a decided majority of the votes, 758,000 to 626,000. In 1948 when Malan's crowd took over the vote was 617,000 against them, 462,000 for them. ; How did they win and how do they retain power in the face of a decisive majority vote against them? Because South Africans express themselves by electing members : of their parliament The rural areas where the Boers or Dutch usually dominate are over-represented, the urban areas dominated by the British are under-represented. And the Boers who are now ruling obviously aren't going to correct this condition. So a minority of the whites who are themselves only 20 per cent of the population push the majority of the whites and all the colored peoples around with vicious From this distance it looks like South Africa is heading for plenty of trouble, with only a minority of the white minority instead of a majority of the white minority to blame. But all are going to suffer. ROAD TO PEACE? . .. r$$m?, jyv sasv WASHINGTON MFRDY.nO.DDI IJH I wrong trousers : POOR MAN'S PHILOSOPHER Why So Many U. S.

Sixth Grade Assembly Four Corners A sixth grade assembly will be held at Lincoln schol at Four Corners at 1:15 p.m. Thursday, April 23. Following the assembly Neil Brown of Parrlsh Junior high school, and Miss Ruth Ingram, public health nurse, will speak to parents on prob lems confronting students en tering junior high school for the fall term. Washington Senators who serve on Senators McCarthy's Investigation committee but are seldom consulted about its helter-skelter probes, are curious, to put it mildly, over the reported European antics of its two Junior G-Men. They are Roy Cohn and Dav Id Schine, whom McCarthy sent to Europe to Investigate air planes at the taxpayers' ex pense, got their pants mixed up, and engaged in a brawl In the Hotel Adler. The two junior G-men, now know as Mc-men, have denied that Schine hit Cohn over the head with a rolled-up maga zine In the hotel corridor or that the chambermaid later found their room turned topsy-turvey. But down Id Florida last year, somewhat the same thing happened in the Boca Raton hotel, owned by Myer Schine, when his son David jumped on his fellow Mc-man. Cohn wanted to leave, but papa Myer and mama Hlldegarde Schine per suaded him to remain. Regardless of these hotel battles, the fact Is that these two young men, aged 25 and 28. who officially represent the United States abroad, have been the laughingstock of Europe. The Financial Times, one of England's most conserva tive papers, in a column credited to Viscount Bracken referred to Cohn and Schine as "two brash young men," "scummy snoopers" and "dis tempered jackals." Commented the News Chronicle: "Let McCarthy's two precocious youngsters . . be made familiar with the British hatred ot bullying honest officials to serve the ulterior purpose of a fanatic In authority." . . . "McCarthylsm," continued the News Chronicle, "has done more to bedevil Anglo- HENRY By Carl Anderson Si SI . w t nuns fcj - Caju American relations than any other single factor.". Lord Beaverbrook's Dally Express voiced similar sentl ments. "McCarthy," It said editorially, "it seeking to pro mote bitterness ' between Britian and America," thereby playing "Malenkovs game." STUtoT "WASTE" In Germany the Frankfurt Abenpost a conservative non- political newspaper, confined itself to the following frac- tural account of the , two junior Mc-men: "The first impression of these two in Bonn was re ceived by high commission officials partly , with humor and partly with annoyed dis appointment. McCarthy's two chief Investigators, Roy Cohn 25, and David' Schine, 26, came to Bonn from Frank furt at 11 o'clock Sunday evening. On' this same even ing, they Interviewed James Hoffnagle, a public affairs officer, at the Hotel Adler in In Bad Godesberg during the course of a dinner which lasted for more than two hours. The dinner cost more than $25. The two investi gated said they had come to Europe In order to study waste and mismanagement in the American Information Program.' "There are supposed to be books with Communistic ten dencies in American libraries here. From high commteaion Circles, however. It was learned that they did not ask a single question about costs and personnel. "The two Investigators In former the personnel ot the Public Affairs Office at the high commission that they should be available Monday morning at 8 o'clock. They themselves, however, were de layed and arrived at the high commission building shortly before 11 o'clock. WRONG TROUSERS "Then the event occurred which still is a main topic of conversation. At 12:30, Mr. Schine announced that he put on the wrong trousers. A driver was sent to the hotel in order to pick up the. right ones. Mr. Schine put them on and then discovered that his notebook was missing. He rushed back to the hotel with (Continued on Page f. Column II Soem 22 Y 'ears Ago SALEM 22 YEARS Ed pg April ZZ, 1931 Fire, accompanied by a 50- mile an hour wind and a dust storm that covered Salem and the vicinity Wednesday after noon, caused Salem fire depart ment to answer 15 alarms up to i:so p.m., six reaching the central department between 9:07 and 9:42 sun. Wednesday afternoon the sun had a weak, red glow as dur ing a heavy forest fire and it was but little lighter than twi light because of dust that ob scured the sun. For several hours 6alem was entirely cut off from the outside world when all mainline telegraph and telephone lines failed due to wind damage. The 80-mile gale that started In Salem yes terday afternoon continued throughout the night with In creasing force and Into Wed nesday bringing a cover of dust and cinders over the city that has already resulted in several thousand dollars dam age.

Men fritter away too much of their energy doing unim portant things. Recently X pointed out how meaningless gallantry was aging many men. There is no doubt that the thousands of times In his life the average man tips his hat to . women. drags them across . the street on his arms, lights theft; clg arets, and pushes revolving doors around for them saps bis vitality. . That article made me about as popular with women as garter snake at ladles' aid pic nic. . , I hope, however, that I did n't convey the impression that living up to some of the out worn demands of chivalry was solely responsible for the fact men today don't last as long as women. There are other factors ner- haps even more Important in undermining masculine health, The little lost motions, the waste motions, he makes on his own time help age him, too. . Take the matter of rutting on shoes. Suppose a boy starts putting on his shoes at the age ox o, ana keeps it up until 70. In that time he will bend over and tie his shoes nearly 25,000 times.

Havoc caused bv today's high wind has caused a heavy damage to fruit spurs in cherry and prune orchards in this lo cality. - . A, woman is more sensible. She merely slips her feet into her slippers. NO lost motions. Why can't men wear shoes like that? Take shaving. It requires about 200 razor strokes. If a man shaves every day for 50 years, that means 3,650,000 arm movements. Naturally, anything you do 3,650,000 times Is going to shorten your life. Science needs to do some thing about getting rid of men's beards once and for all Probably the same Is true of scalp hair. As It Is now, when a man's hair starts getting thin, the more madly and des perately he combs it, thus cut ting down his life expectancy. Take the matter of conver sation. Women are supposed to talk more than men. But do they really? The truth is women get the most mileage out of their vocal chords for the time they use them. They use conversation either for relaxing gossip or to deliver an important message to their husbands from his sponsor themselves. The typical feminine greet ing Is in efficient quarter Inch smile. But a man? He breaki out In a rash of gobbledegood such as "Hoy're yuh?" and' "Waddaya know," end "What's new?" He does this over and over, all day long, -making unimportant noises with his mouth when he should b rest ing it. Take exercise. Only mid. die aged men are foolitb, enough to believe it keeni them healthy to zoom up their blood pressure In a hot sun swinging a tennis racquet or following, the spoor of a golf ball. A mature woman has the wisdom ot a lady tiger in a zoo. She knows she can get all the exercise she needs merely by stretching, In this world every motion you make takes its invisible toll. Women know this by Instinct. They make their mo tlons count. And it Is (h lost motions of their husbands spendthrifts of energy, that leaves them widows. When I told my wife abnm this theory, Frances said: "Poor thing. Would It hin any if I lathered and shaved you every morning?" It might. But there are tea many mornings when a hus band doesn't feel like trust ing his wife with the razor. j in the Hew 1953 UHIVERSAL The Hurrkant '-Head Engine new gives 20 greater power to the Universal 'Jeep'.
