APRIL 19,1935 O • “AS YE SOW----- ” •--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- « One is caused to wonder sometimes about where a country is going when it becomee customary to pass the buck to the government on every matter. Nowadays, if a city wants an airport, it sends a petition to its congressmen if a community wants a park; it applies for a project; if the potato growers want to raise the price, they ask to be made a basic crop under the AAA, if a city wants to patch a street it asks for government aid. Now thia is fine for the cities and communities. The local taxpayer is relieved of paying for the improvements he enjoys and men are employed to do the job. Undoubted ly public buildings and public parks are growing where none were contemplated a few months ago, Yet there must be an end to it all some day and it may be as sad as was the ending of the boom times when the rose colored glasses were snatched away by the ruthless hand of economic retri bution and blue ones substituted. American children were once taught that God helps them who help themselves.” Now they are being tacitly taught that the government helps them who won’t or can’t help them selves One might reason that this left the deci sion on the type of support clearly up to the individual, but the government is nothing but neighbors and neighbors neighbors throughout the land and it cannot be looked up on as a perpetual giver. - ' We will spend as much in three years -1934, 1935 and 1936 - as was appropriated by the government from Wash ington’s time to the end of the Taft administration. The country became great, its people the best equipped to enjoy life of any in the world on a policy of sparce spending by the federal government. Now we are trying the other ex treme. It may have the opposite effect. NOT SO SMALL Newspaper readers of this county were somewhat startled last week to read an item naming this county as the smallest county of the state. No doubt, it made the story better, but the fact is that eight counties of Oregon are smaller than Sherman. The very county in which the article was written and printed is only little over half as large as Sherman county. Counties of this state smaller than Sherman are Benton» Clatsop’ Columbia, Hood River’ Multnomah, Polk, Wash ington and Yamhill. In point of tillable and tilled acreage Sherman county is the second in size. Perhaps the story and head line writers were thinking of population, although they should have.said least populous instead of smallest if they had that in mind. It wouldn’t have been true anyway for two counties have fewer persons ^within their boundaries than does Sherman county. They are Jefferson and Wheeler. So it looks like the story in question was a mistake all the way round. An Indian was knocked off the Wishram bridge in a fight last week and died from his injuries. There should be an SERA project to teach Indians not to fight on narrow bridges.
