Washington, D. C, Oct. 17. De
spite all the claims and assertions
and propaganda issued by the new
dealers and ' the Republicans, the
cold truth is that neither side is
confident of the outcome. -It is
known, however, that Mr. Roose
velt has slipped deeply from his
high point .of 1936 and that Mr. Will
kie, whose campaign had bogged
down after a spectacular start, is
now making substantial progress.
Mr. Roosevelt, who stated he was
too busy with state affairs to make
a campaign, is now making a reg
ular political tour under the guise
of "inspecting" national defense, but
making speeches which are painfully
political. Mr. Roosevelt was forced
to abandon his pose of indifference
when his advisers realized that Mr.
Willkie was making a real race.
The situation, at this stage of the
campaign, has the managers puz
zled and somewhat worried. The
various polls are not in harmony,
and Mr. Roosevelt is assured of vic
tory or doomed to defeat, depending
upon the poll. The poll sponsors
are in sharp disagreement in their
asserted sampling of public opinion.
Because of the popularity of Sen
ator Charles L. McNary, Republi
can candidate for vice president, the
new deal administration is exerting
itself to prevent him from carrying
Oregon. The new dealers are ob
sessed with the idea that the Pa
cific northwest (Oregon and Wash
ington) are concerned only with
power from Grand Coulee and Bon
neville and they are harping on this
one string. The loss of markets for
fruits, wheat, lumber and other pro
ducts of the northwestern states
caused by the trade agreements of
Secretary of State Cordell Hull, are
ignored by new deal speakers. These
losses which hit the pocketbook of
practically every resident of those
states, directly or indirectly, have
reduced the buying ower of the
people.
On account of the belief in White
House circles that the cost of a light
bill is more important in Oregon and
Washington than jobs or selling far
mers down the river, Henry A. Wal
lace, candidate for vice president,
talked nothing else in his tour of
the northwest, and Harold Ickes,
secretary of the interior, planned
discussing the same subject in Port
land and Seattle. Owing to the un
popularity of Ickes in the northwest
he was compelled to cancel his con
templated trip by friendly adminis
tration advisers. Nebraska's Senator
Norris, once a great crusader, has
been booked for the Columbia basin
area to talk government power and
denounce Willkie for being a former
utilities executive. .
None of the speakers for the ad
ministration are discussing the pros
pect of the United States being drag
ged into war within a short time;
the opinion being that in the north
west ' government ownership over
shadows the threat of war, or any
thing else. v .
Senator Norris' position on war has
changed. He voted against it in 1917.
Also when Coolidge was president
he voted for a senate resolution
which denounced any attempt by
anyone to seek a third term in the
presidency. Now, in his old age,
Norris is supporting the third term,
the presumption being because Mr.
Roosevelt named a dam and hamlet
after Norris in TVA, giving the
aged politician a monument in con
crete. Comparatively few of the men
who registered for selective military
service this week will ever be called
to the colors. The quota for Oregon
and Washington is comparatively
insignificant with the number of
registrant between 21 and 36 years
Heppner
in those states. In a few southern
states the quota is almost nil be
cause of the number of voluntary
enlistments in the army before the
conscription bill became law. All
those who enlisted had the privil
ege of selecting their services; those
who are conscripted must go into
any branch the military authorities
designate.
The rules ' will be very easy on
registrants who are married, and
whenever possible the conscripts
will be confined to single men. No
conscripted citizen will be sent to
a military camp until the camp is
properly equipped for habitation
The health department of the army
is taking precautions against a re
currence of the epidemics in can
xonmeijts oi trie tirst world war,
when thousands of soldier boys lost
their lives.
Washington Scene: Australian
wool clip, which was bought by the
British government, is to be shipped
to the United States and held in
bond. The clip amounts to 250 mil
lion pounds of wool in the grease.
Sheepmen of the northwest will be
protected against this foreign wool
as American officials will guard
against it being dumped on the mar
ket. Wool is listed as a critical ma
terial by the army and navy muni
tions board.... As quietly as possi
ble the war department has been
making a national survey of guess
what coffins. The department wants
to know how many caskets are
available Just to keep the record
straight, when there is talk of war,
sabotage and fifth columnists, it is
recalled that Earl Browder, head of
the Communist party in the United
States, testified that there are 4,000
members of the party in Washington
and Oregon and 6,000 in California.
More Growers Insure
For New Wheat Crop
More than three times as many
winter wheat growers have taken
out federal crop insurance in Ore
gon this year than were insured last
year, a report by N. C. Donaldson,
state AAA executive officer, shows.
The big increase came in western
Oregon where growers applied for
insurance in large numbers for the
first time.
Umatilla county also increased its
policies from 392 to 741 and leads
all counties in total numbers.
Clackamas is second with 603, fol
lowed by Union, which increased
from 97 to 413. Lane county ,has
375 and Marion county 344. The
state total is 4926 compared with
1610 last year. Spring wheat grow
ers will have until February 28,
1941, to apply for insurance.
Only 416 claims for losses in 1940
were paid, as crop conditions were
fairly good.
