HIGHWAY SP E E D S
Two serious»accidents on Ore­
gon highways in recent days have
brought increased interest in pass­
age of a new law governing high­
way speeds. There is already oppo­
sition to It.
It now seems likely that the op­
position is letter founded than
the adherents. In both cases at
least o,ne car was traveling very
fast, far too fast, so fast that the
driver would have been guilty un­
der any conceivable speed law. A
law cannot stop such contact for
a law does not ¡»revent a crime,
merely makes certain actions pun­
ishable in the hope that the pun­
ishment will deter the crime.
Oregon’s law about speed Is
pretty good, as good as that of
most states. Washington holds
driving speeds to 50 miles where
possible and it has many accidents
just the same. In the far reaches
of eastern Oregon it is almost cer­
tain that drivers are going to go
60 to 70 miles an hour and that
few of them are going to be
caught. It is a long ways l»etween
towns and roads are good and the
drivers impatient.
Speed in itself may not cause
many Occidents but it certainly
does make accidents more deadly.
The drivers who get up to 75
and 00 miles are reckless «¡»ersons
at l»est and those we always have
with us.
Travel in congested areas Is not
too fast now, except In times of
bad weather conditions and most
drivers slow down for towns,
school crossings and marked
curves. Speed on the straight­
aways is expected in every state
and might as well l»e accepted.
In Canada the driving Is slow­
er and that is because Canadians
do not get In a hurry about any­
thing. It Is doubtul If any law
could make Oregonians calm
enough to abide by a 50 mile an
hour speed limit. If a new law was
not observed It would do nothing
but fill the j»oll e courts. It would
not prevent highway deaths such
as the two big accidents did re­
cently.
*
It is possible that the accidents
themselves will be as good a deter­
rent as we could have.
OLD F A SH IO N E D
An Oregon Journal editor has
been upset in his moral codes by
stories and pictures of women
wrestling bouts at Oregon City,
lie calls upon th«’ legislature to
stop this unholy business of Inad­
vertently feminine mayhem.
It must he something of a
shock to the venerable writer of
opinion that the dainty und falnty
female of his youth should in­
dulge In violence right In front of
the public. He will realize, of
course that womens’ activities
have been less Inhibited in private
than in public and that exertion is
not beyond them. Women have
wrestled with many things: the
washtub, onlv recently a*20 pound
turkey, a half dozen squabbling
brats of all ages and have come
out with honors.
In late years women have refus­
ed to keep their physical abilities
hidden. They play games: they
swim (and perhaps the only rea­
son they didn’t swim years ago
was the suits custom made them
wear); they weld and they wait
and take part In many pursuits
requiring physical strength and
ability. They accept the kindly
protection of men without admit­
ting that they need It.
If women want to wrestle for
pay and for the public th ey are
going to wrestle and for the same
reason that If they want to cut off
their hair that
their “crown
Ing glory" they ore going to and If
they want to wear pants they are
going to. And the men are going
to wind up liking It because there
Isn’t anything else they can do.
for the legislature passing a
law (that aged solution of the le­
galistic) it doesn’t make any dif­
ference. If the women can't wres-

In secret r u s hes like prize fight­
ers did a gmeratlon ago. Women
are as indejiendent as cats and as
hard to dominate or rule.
Years ago, l»efore women got
the vote and the right to indepen­
dence and all the other things she
now possesses, It might have been
possible to tell her she couldn’t
wrestle. It woul«Jbe presumptuous
to tell her now—and useless. Hav­
ing seen the pictures of those fe­
minine wrestlers in the papers
and having read the story of the
bout we are very certain that if
anyone tells the lady wrestlers
they cannot perform it Is going to

may not have l>een feminine but

NOT GOOD
Mr. Kenneth Kendrick, a Texan
with the dialict and hoastfullness
of his native state fully apparent,
Is president of the national assoc­
iation of wheat growers He spoke
at Portland. It is our hope that
wheat men should see that Mr.
Kendrick speaks seldom and then
be restrlcetd to story telling at
which he Is most adept.
He feels that farmers should
have subsidies 'because other sub­
sidies are paid.
He overlooks the fact that sub­
sidies are a small part of the
wheat problem. If it Is necessary
to pay subsidies to assure that suf­
ficient food is produced by farm­
ers for the nation’? citizens we
will have, and should have subsi­
dies.
Of greater concern is another
fact: that the payment of subsidies
to growers of surplus crops had
distorted the American agricultu­
ral situation without helping the
consumers of the, nation and with­
out bringing any stability to the
agriculture of the nation. In oth­
er words subsidies are not a major
part of the problem at all.
If the United States Department
of Agriculture has any function
at all it is to attempt to equalixe
production of food and fiber so
that the needs of the nation are
met. Second, there should be some
production to occasionally aid the
state department with valuable
exports. No one Is helped by hav­
ing wheat stored In country eleva­
tors, terminal elevators, un­
used barns, abandoned ships. Cer­
tainly the wheat growers are not
helped by such a program.
It Is reassuring that the USDA
Is interested of late in reducing
production in non - commercial
areas, which together with some
reduction in parity, may help re­
turn wheat growing to those areas
in the nation that are best adapt­
ed to that crop.
Purpose of subsidies and cer­
tainly the effect of subsidies, is to
increase production. In war time
they may have been valuable.
Now they serve to distort the en­
tire nation’s agricultural produc­
tion. In effect they are taking
away production from the best
wheat growing sections an ' giv­
ing it to areas not suited to wheat
growing.
Apparently Mr Kendrick comes
from an area that should not he
growing wheat except in the dire
straits of war, Production there—
if he was being serious at the
time—is rive to ten bushels. Pay­
ment of a subsidy sufficient to
keep such producers in existence
does great and lasting t’amag? to
producers of th® mid-Columbia ba­
sin who have productive wheat
land.

made annually to obtain a statis­

of livestock on farms and ranches

When anyone asks al»out plastic

lar question. To begin with, there
are some 20 to 25 different types
of plastic pipe and many of these
are In the experimental stage.
There are two general types—the
flexible and the semi-rigid. Prob­
ably more than 90 per cent of the
plastic pipe sold today is polyeth­
ylene, the most common and flex­
ible pipe. Plastic pipe makers are
concentrating most of the produc­
tion on polyethylene, an oil refin­
ery by-product It Is black, looks
and feels like hard rubber and is

A few of the big steel and rubber
manufacturers have climbed on to

Plastic pipe can he used very suc­
