JIM BUSCH says . . This privilege has been mine, here in— OREGON . ny man can consider himself truly privileged who has hud the opportunity o f speaking with and to nearly 100,000 o f his country men within a period o f slightly more than two weeks. This privilege has been mine, here in Oregon. Your kindness and consideration to me I shall never forget. You have been ihe most gracious, most hospitable people a man could possibly meet. I feel we have become friends. Each day I have endeavored clearly and forth LABOR AND MANAGEMENT We muil restore (he confidence ol lalHii and in.in.igenirnt in their government by a deflnile and consistent labor policy lairly and impartially administered We should strengthen the processes ol collective bargaining and increase to a maximum government mediation o f industrial disputes, strengthen the agencies o f conciliation and mediation, and icduce to a minimum goscinntenl compulsion. We should then build up a real labor department and appoint the best available Secretary ol I abor, stand back of hun, let him serve as the administration's tepre .«ntative in dealings with labor and management and don't let people go around behind his back to overrule him rightly to present my views on the many issue» con VETERANS fronting us all. I have a steadfast faith that we can succe .sfully resolve our problems, here al home and abroad, that America can and w ill go forward as a happy, pros perous, free nation in a world at peace. As I have visited with you, I have stated, as clearly as I know how, my convictions o n : Veterans are entitled to every possible lielp that government •.an give them and in my stale as in yours we've tried to do just that. We must encourage them to start new businesses and bring to them the personal counseling service o f all agencies of government to help them meet their problems, front jobs to health and welfare We must also provide our veterans with the broadest possible educational opportunities so that the s«u ,e esjabbsh themselves in a peace-time economy. GOVERNMENT EXPENDITURES COAfAN/NtfAf IN THE UNITED STATES I am unalterably, whole-heartedly and unswervingly against any sthenic to write laws outlawing people because of then religious, political, social or economic ideas. It is a violation of the Constitution o f the United States and of ihe Bill of Rights It is nothing but totalitarianism itself. I know from many years experience in enforcement of ihe law that the proposal would not work and instead would advance the cause o f Communism rapidly both in this country and all over the world. I am against it because it would drive Ihe Communists underground. Let’s keep them out in the open so we can know who (hey ar» and shat they support— and then beat them at the polls. With a vigorous national government that teally hales C ommunism and knows something about it, we can proceed to convict them when they break our laws. We can completely discredit the Parly and deprive it of ils effectiveness. We can heat Communism in the good American fashion without undermining the líbente» of our people. We must never outlaw any person for his individual beliefs. Those are the methods ol Hitler and Stalin. They must never he permitted to happci n America. POWER AND RECLAMATION It is fundamental in our free society that government should only perform those functions that are essential to llte actual operation o f government. It is also fundamental that taxation should be kept to Ihe absolute minimum that is necessary to pay the cost o f essential government services and to make payments toward the national debt. Every unnecessary expendi ture means a larger lax collection out of the nation s production, and therefore, a lower standard of living for the people as a 'hole. I am personally convinced that expenditure* ol oyi prawlmg Federal government departments, bureaus, and gcnctcs can be reduced EDUCATION l have a deep consciousness o f the place education bolds in t l i e future ol this nation. No slate, no community, is Ivctter than its schools. Hall of a child's waking hours arc spent in school Here the child gets the best possible help to become a useful citizen. Nothing contributes more to the improvement ol out citizenry than docs education, for schooling develops human resources which, in turn, produce wealth und contribute to human happiness Show me the nation with the bevt system of public education and with the greatest schooling in the huniani- ues and I will show you the nation with the gt cates! pro» (<rily and with the soundest and happiest national life dro-eleclnc powei and im g alio n aie uigcnl and ess* >•’ ttic healthy giowih of ihe Pacific Northwest and I uige t ..ey go forward steadily and rapidly. All sound projects i * honestly sell-sustaining and self-liquidating. On this ba »ublic appropnations are to be regarded as investments vmcrica's productive future. The same is true of needed fl<.. •ntrol and navigation projects. River development should be on a regional basis. Su. urge-scale multiple-purpose projects as those for the drainai •asms ot the Missouri, the Columbia and ihe Willamette are natural responsibility for the Federal government. I propos an aggressive and a continued orderly program of developm all such major resources for the benefit o f the Nation, includin¡ McNary Dam, which will generate nearly a million kilowatts and Foster Creek and Hungry Horse and such others as ma be feasible. This also includes the works for the control an< harnessing of the Willamette River which were interrupte. by the war. In these resources some sections are more richly endowo than others, but this is not a sectional matter. Anything thu builds a bigger West builds a greater and stronger Amen for all our people. P U C E AND NATIONAL SECURITY It is elementary that we must build up oui national nulilai nglh to the .point where no nation on earth will date i ack us. But arms will not win the peace . We need a tirst-ratc intelligence service so that we can I ornwd about what is going on in Ihe world . We should start, and start now, effectively to combat ih, ,il propaganda of Communism. 1. We need to bring to China material help and, even moi. nportant, renewed proof of our continuing deep friendship i . We must use our great European recovery plan the o-called Marshall plan—to encourage the development ol United States o f Europe. .6 . We must make up our minds that we have lo wage peace with all the energy and determination and force with which wi waged war. 7 . We must keep cool. Remember this is a war ot nerves I he objeci o f a war o f nerves is to make us angiy and provoke us into doing foolish things. AGRICULTURE And We Can Prove It N o r does the q u a lity o f o u r m ercha nd ise rise and fa ll w ith each tid e o f ch a n g in g c o n d itio n s . Y ou can d e pend upon th is sto re to g iv e fin e q u a lity A L L th e tim e . JIM BUSCH MOTOR CO¿ ON — THE — ■ ■ .... PLAZA 6 AND 8 PHONE 3381 ¿J-útsuiLtf i .’ SPECIAL C o m p le te S p rin g S e rvice i am deeply convinced that agriculture must be maintained on a par with other elements o f our population. An important job lor the next Congress will be io modernize our present parity formulas to provide a true measure between farm prices and farm costs. This should include consideration of the cost ol hired^farm labor. In modernizing parity we should also aim at a program which will correct the present alarming decrease in our flocks and herds to provide us with the strongest possible animal agriculture, as well as protect our basic production ol cereals and fruits and vegetables. Until this complete long-range farm and price support program is completed, present price supports should, o f course, be continued. I he interests of agriculture and industry are always inter twined. If one is prosperous i>e other will he prosperous. Depression for one inevitably means misery for the other. But there is no need to fear depression at all if we can gel ahead with a creative development o f our natural resources. I he inter-dependency of farm and factory is nowhere belter shown than in ihe Northwest’s great program of conservation and utilization of its water resources for ihe development of powei and the tcUamalion of Und. In this critical hour the mantle of world leadership has fallen on our shoulders. Our Republican Parly alone has the laith, the practical competence and the devotion to peace lo meet the desperate appeal of free men everywhere for leader ship. Our country is being challenged in the world today by cold torce and ruthless political opportunism. We must be strong enough to be able to stand up boldly and fearlessly when we are threatened with brute force. But force alone will never win Ui« ultimate decision. I f the world is to he saved trom totalitarian barbar.sm, it must be saved by the skillful use ol peaceful means, by the triumph of ideas and ideals. In the winning of the peace every advantage „ on on, side, Ihe Republican Party will wage and win the peace by a new high devotion to .ha, cause, by skrll and undemanding and evei lasting laith in (he cause of human liberty. 7 M o to r T u n e -U p Lubrication Steam Clean Wash Job Drop in today and get your car in condition for smooth sum m er driving.
