Just as the world was feeling satisfied that aviation has invented equipment that would make ocean flying possible because of the success of Howard Hughes an Irish lad jumps the ocean with none of it. The talk of taking away his license is silly, of course, and is merely done to save the faces of important beauracrats who must uphold their rulings. The people would rise up en masse if Corri gan was punished for his bravery, or dare devilish conduct. Call it wbgt you will. We like such lads We need more of them—more men who will not be stifled by petty rules and the fears of failure. The timid souls who would sell their liberty for promised security are not for us: give us the shock headed kids with the glint of conquest in their eye who hold life of no value unless It contains something for the spirit. Hurrah for Corrigan. Earl H. Fehl, former county judge of Jackson county, lost his appeal to the supreme court. The state’s high tribunal has ruled that his committment to the hos pital for insane was entirely reg ular. His ultimate release, ac cording to the court, will be up to the superintendent of the insti tution. ait fid is Prairie P (Continued from page one» for the care of aged needy vet erans. The action is reminder of" the fact that up until May 8, 1933, Oregon maintained suoh an insti tution at Roseburg where approx imately veterans were being cared for at a cost to the state of ap proximately 150,000 a year. At that time u,e Federal Gov ernment took over the institution with the understanding j that it would establish a National Home on the site where Oreogn 'veter ans would continue to receive as good, if not better, care than the state ‘had been aible to providee.

Wild Life Paradise t>A O P H t» 4 M A N IT O » * NAT. k PARK The effect that the loan price on wheat will make is still being de- r bated whenever two or more farm- . era get together. General opinion is that the loan rate will peg the price of wheat and that few sales will be made above the govern ment figure. It is estimated that farmers 1 who have “cooperated” with the * government this year will receive around 70 cents per bushel for j their crop. Those who have not ’ cooperated will get twelve cents less if they sell. As a rule it is the most successful faim ers who < have not gone along with the gov- ernment rulings; those who own , their farms and are financially , ■table. Theae men will probably ‘ be able to hold their wheat until ' it is saleable or ui buy stock to feed it to. This wheat, along with ythe government’s wheat, will remain on hand to flood any rising market and depress the price until dis posed of just as did the farm board wheat of a few years ago. The insurance wheat will help build up the surplus Then if an aver age crop is grown in 1939 on the 55,000,000 acres permitted we will have the same sized surplus as this year because the arrangements are all made to perpetuate it in stead of dispose of it. When the cut is made to 55,000,- 000 acres the farmer who has been in busineas (for forty years will be hard hit for the new entrant into the wheat business will have part of his production sewed up by ] government edict. Many will not qualify which will make it almost impoerible to keep the acreage within the limit. It is tending toward a situation in which part of the farihera grow wheat and the othera are paid for not growing wheat instead of a situation in which each farmer is paid to take out a percentage of his wheat. Farmers may soon have the choice of staying in busi ness or accepting payment to get out. This may resolve itaelf into a sensible plan. If selection is made of the land to be taken from wheat production and if the own er of the land is encouraged tq grow- some saleable crop instead of wheat, the balance of agriculture may be restored instead of being further upset as it has been in recent years. as a nunfber of otSier feature«, will be broadcast from the Uni versity of Oregon caroput over versify of Oregon campus over : school year.
