This season of the year has
lieen a time of celebration since
man first figured out the seasons
and discovered that days began
getting longer along about now
It was im portant to ancestor
living in caves and finding a
living after game animals had
moved south.
Early Christians, searching for
something popular to attach
their holidays to utilized this
pagan holiday and transferred it
into a religious time, decorated
with paguentry possible to an
imaginative and prosperous peo-
l’h‘
Certainly the C hristians have
im proved it. Instead of a time
of joy over the promise of longer
days,w arm er w eather and better
hunting, all of which were very
laudable, it is a time of spiritual
revival and dedication to an ideal
of brotherly love. Like their an
cestors C hristians are hoping for
belter times but not so entirely
in a physical sense. The obser
vance has therefore m atured.
WIIE.YI PROGRAMS
Oregon W heat Leaguers
and
the national are hopeful th at they
may get their cherished two-price
plan through congress and duly
signed into law this session of
eongiess. It lias been changed
m aterially since McNary and
Haugen first introduced it at tne
request of northw est grain men
back in the tw enties and it has
some better features.
It would gradually tend to le-
duce the surplus and it would
reduce the acreage in wheat very
drastically it seems by putting
bushels instead of acres as the
m easuring stick for production.
It would perm it paym ent of the
parity price for wheat eaten dom-
esticallj anti it would cause pro
duction of enough iced grain to
scare tne mid-western corn grow-
er.-
;
Some
of these things are good,
The idea will be opposed in
congress by that idea generally
supported by the Farm bureau.
That organization would gradual
ly get governm ent out of tne
wheat business by reducing p ar
ity prices until wheat stood on
its own feet and a farm er woul 1
grow it at his own risk—or pro
fit.
The way the two-price plan is
now proposed it would continue
the rather strict controls the
governm ent has on wheat men;
the farm bureau plan would
gradually release them.
The new adm inistration is ex
pected to favor more governm ent
instead of less but the farm bu
reau controls a lot of votes in the
nation's big farm country. The
battle will be w orth watching.
REORGANIZATTON
Governor Hatfield has unfolded
his plan for state reorganization
of adm inistrative bodies, that is,
it is partly unfolded. We cannot
ay w hether we will like the pro
gram but we are sure we like the
idea, for the legislature has been
building bureaus and boards un
til the house is overflowing with
them.
N either is there reason for tne
legislature to sniff at the gulier-
natorial
proposals;
legislators
have l>een studying the same
thing for fifteen years and those
who studied most are most con
vinced that change
would be
beneficial.
We do not think th a t it is a
m atter to lx? decided in one
session ol a legislature busy as
it will lie with dozens of problems
needing
immediate
attention.
