MILK
Whenever a visitor in The Dal
les drinks a glass of milk with
his lunch he will be getting a
few drops of taxpayers blood
with it, if the recent decision of
the city council is really put into
effect. 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.
