The city fathers voted, according to the press, to sub sidize local dairies by paying them to continue in business des pite the 181 cent top imposed by the OPA. There may be some excellent reason why a town should enter into the job of feeding its citizens in whole or in part, but it cer tainly looks like a far cry from normal American standards of the proper function of government If citizens of The Dalles coy Id not keep dairies running at^nhe OPA price we think it entirely within their rights as Americans to pay whatever /price they were willing to pay for milk The en trance of the city into the deal is entirely unwarranted. If it is illegal for Citizen Doe'to pay the demanded price for miBc, it is il legal for the taxp*y«r to do so through mbsidy. Any taxpayer might, with every chance of suc cess, protest paying for the ma lk subsidy tax. They will be suckers if they de not. We have gone entirely toe far in thia country with the theory that government of one kind or another is reSponadbe for the food, shelter, entertainment, clothing, amusement .enjoyment, etc., etc., of the great American voter. He would and will be a better citizen when the tax-eating theorists get off hie lap and expense account and let him be responsible for his own bread and beans. If no one in The Dalles had the intestinal fortitude to defy the OPA they dhould have done with out milk until they did as punish ment for their subservience. It is not the business of the city- We think the temper of American peo ple such that any business man who goes broke because of OPA deserves his fata. Have all Am ericans forgotten the words: “Go to H ell?” HOT NIGHT Sherman oountiane had a taste of the middle west Tuesday night when the usual sundown chill fail ed to materialize and heat made the night uncorrtfortabAe until the «»mall hours of the morning Probably heat is not among the most unpleasant reason* for sleep lessness. Illness or a bad condence would be more tiring it may be presumed—as a strictly theoreti cal deduction. Those of us who are used to Sherman county nights when a coat ia usually comfortable Short ly after sundown find hot nights very unpleasaht. and sleeplessness tiring, however caused POOR JUDGMENT; WORSE GOVERNMENT A The end of the Wallace-Jones quarrel in overheated Washington was entirely unexpected. The pren- ideot took some o f the power the boys were fightiqg about and gave it to smother , a nqethod every father recognises a s one to be need when some punishment seems neeeaaary smd evidence of guilt is not a t hand. In addition the president told Mr. WaUace and Mr. Jones and every other department head that there could be no quarreling. When there is disagreement they must come to papa. They must never let the people in on any of the quarrel* It is none of the peo ple** business what the leaders of the administration quarrel «Utout They can put up the money and the votes and there their interest ends. Thus a new and dangerous pol icy enters into American adminis tration; something that should not be tolerated even m wartime. The vice-president of the United States was same vote as was tbMNre»ident. He was chosen by t ft P u m e people. He has as much right to apeak up as nny elected officer or any citizen. If he doesnt like M t , Junes e has an American right to **ay so- And if he lets himself be sque - ed by the president he doeen t deserve to be vice-president. n if the president squelches him he doesn’t deserve to be president. Appointed offldala may be made to await word from the big boy in the White House before apeak- ing out, but we will have better government when all official», rood and bad, big « ’■ httle, have no rertrictions on their right to be heard, their right to express their views, their right to disagree with anyone if they choose. • Í’RIDAT, JULY 23. 1943 Kelly ’s Co'uKn (Coni ■»•UfH I i»m «irte» ______ industry in the northwest da up ¡^ < 7 problein.
