ROSY SAYS: It seems t0 be the
time of year when a lot of peo
ple are making predictions of
things to come in 1956, so here
are my predictions: First: I
predict that Morrow County will
have a bumper grain crop. Se
cond: I predict that livestock
prices will move up to a higher
level that, will be nearer the
cost of production. Third: I
predict a solution will be found
to our surplus problem within
the next eighteen months and'
that the surplus will be used to
feed the hungry people
throughout the world. Fourth:
I predict that Heppner people
will appreciate their TV sets
more and more as the political
campaign warms up. Fifth: I
predict that the people of Hepp
ner will be proud they had the
foresight to build a new school
and didn't wait for the federal
government to help build one.
They will be proud they live in
a town that has a new sewer
system, paved streets and good
churches. Fifth: I predict that
more people will buy Ford cars
and trucks in 1956 than they
ever have In history.

V. S. production is not sufficient

Still unanswered, however, is
$64,000 question as to why U. S.,
where cornerstone of nation rests
on free press, has ever permitted
situation to exist whereby the
basic supply for a free press is
controlled by foreigners. '
Under stress of moment, some
purporting to speak for nation's
free press have been issuing
statements about need for a gov
ernment subsidy for publishers,
government control of newsprint,
other measures of like nature.
But as all publishers realize,
once government gets even a
toehold in operation of the na
tion's free press, that press is
not long destined to be free.
But In all the discussion on the
subject, little is said about the
fact that Federal government is

are millions of acres of virgin
forests of same type that feeds
Canada's newsprint industry,
e
But governed as a territory
under the Organlo Act of 1870,
citizens of Alaska have little, If
any, control over natural re
sources of the land they live in.
Rather, control of these re
sources are based on edicts out
of Washington from Interior
Dept. And as is well known,
bureaucratic edicts can change
with changes of the moon.
Obviously, development of a
newsprint Industry requires
great outlays of capital for a
long term. Undoubtedly, there is
substantial American capital
ready to go ahead, but there first
must be a feeling of security.
However, as a territory, sub
ject to changing bureaucratic
whims, investment of substan
tial long term capital in Alaska
to develop natural resources is
almost as uncertain as doing the
same thing in Mexico.
This, of course, would change
if Alaska were given statehood.
Use of country's resources would
then be divorced from bureau
cratic decree.
And it appears obvious that to
develop, Alaska needs new indus
try as badly as free press of
nation needs adequate domestic
newsprint supply.
With unfavorable ratio be
tween production costs ami the
U. S. gold price, mining in Alas
ka is at low ebb. And Washing
ton bureaucratic control of the
once great Alaskan salmon fish
eries has reduced them to a
sad level. But until statehood Is
g'ven Alaska, it appears future
of free press in America depends
on policies of foreign newsprint
monopoly.
