Harder There are some around Wash' ington when asked "What do you think of American foreign pol icy reply with cynicism. The reply: "No question about American foreign policy being foreign ai foreign to everything American as anything could be." rr uepioraoie part of entire situation Is that) money needed for develop ment and ex' pansion of x- dependent Am-' erican business is being siph oned oft via tax route to engage in all -types of confused adven tures, many appearing to be nothing more than attempt to pull British chestnuts out of fire; For out of billions being poured out In foreign aid, some U being given Isreal, some to Arab na tions. Some is also given Pak istan and some to India. And it is quite interesting that commun ist as well as non communist na tions share in this never ending flow of bounty, Thus in two different areas of disagreements, State Dept. is taking stand with both sides due to situations stemming back to past British diplomacy, or per haps better known as machina tions. In Middle East, England li In trouble with oil supply with which she bat long attempted to create world monopoly. Wheth er or not this Is with the con nivance of several V. S. firms Is now being investigated. For years British also exer cised monopoly in natural rubber and tin in her Malayan colonies. American development of syn thetics and colonial drive for independence if upsetting this apple cart. British West Africa supplies major snare of world s coroa, Ceylon leads In tea, and Pakis tan In jute. But In those areas, unrest leads away from British domination. The Empire is in deed In trouble. It would be interesting to spec ulate what British position would be today if she had not doggedly tried to dominate world with monopolies and cartels. Eventually, monopoly tactics lead to disaster. Abraham Lin coln once said, "You can fool part of the people all the time, all the people part of the time, but you can't fool all the people all the time." However, based on record of past 24 years, it could probably be said you can fool U. S. State Dept. all the time. For much of the foreign give ways fall Into a pattern seem ingly designed to help British monopoly whenever and wherev er It gets Into trouble. And as Is by now well konwn, there is a move in Washington to remove from British monopoly anxiety from year to year over how much they can tap Uncle Sam for. The plan is to set up a give away program that would be saddled on V. B. taxpayers for A long period of years. And thus is presented a most ironical spectacle of all time. Independent American busi ness Is handicapped In order to make It possible to bulwark, at least temporarily, the British system of cartel business. What Patrick Henry would have to say about this situation if he were around today. . i IONE COMMUNITY CHURCH Rev. A. Shirley, pastor Church school 10:00 a. m. Morning worship 11:00 a. m.

You will face the shortest gene ral election ballot In Oregon since the adoption of the initia tive referendum and constitution al acts In 1902. There will be one measure and five statewide bills which were referred to the voters by the 1955 Legislature. The lone measure calls for banning commercial fishing in Oregon's coastal streams. A cigarette tax of 3-cents-a- pack passed by the Legislature and blocked by referendum peti tion of the public, will be on the ballot. The constitutional amendments on the ballot that were referred are to place the emergency clause on a tax voted by the Legisla ture, authorizing the state to ac cept and dispose of bequeaths, repeal provisions dating from! 1859 fixing the salaries of top of ficials, double the pay of legis lators and to impose qualifica tions for county coroners and surveyors. Compare the voters good for tune this year with that of 1910 when the general election ballot (an all-time record), was a yard Long and had 14 constitutional amendments and 31 initiative measures to be considered. Those were the days when the initiative was young, a new plaything for conniving politicians and when securing signatures on petitions was a Jucrative vocation for the jobless. At the 1912 election women sufferage was adopted and dou ble liability of bank stockholders passed, as was the famous blue sky law, sponsored by Gov. Os wald West. The income tax was adopted but acts to abolish cap! tal punishment and to prohibit boycotts were beaten. BOOK ON CRIMINAL LAWS A 400-page district attorney's form book, specimens of criminal indictements, information and complaints for charging viola tions of Oregon's criminal code, has been completed and was dis tributed at the District Attorney's conference in Salem last week bv Attorney General Robert Y. Thorn ton. The volume contains several hundred legal forms designed to withstand the most rigid scrutiny of courts and defense attorneys. It is expected that greater uni formity and greater efficiency in the administration of criminal justice in Oregon will result from the compilation of the book. MANY LEARN SLOWLY A "weary traveler" kicked dust from his shoes at a Salen fringe gas station two weeks aeo and whispered, "I just had a collision witn a decent chap down the road. He will settle for $50 and neither of us will have to report the accident to the authorities. I have only $20 and need $30. Can you let me nave the $30111 leave my watch until I eet the money back to you tonight." Gas man still has the showey watch. It sells for about $2. A story of this con game was printed in two Salem papers three weeks ago, however, simi lar Gyps continue to be reported as attempted or successful. YOUTHFUL VALOR Governor Elmo E. Smith would like to receive suggestions that proper recognition may be eiven to Oregon boys and girls for out standing acts of bravery during 1955. The Young American Medals committee of the U. S. depart ment of justice will award med als authorized by Congress. To date Gov. Smith has submitted, the following nominees from Ore gon: I Donna Wampole, 12-year-old1 Garibaldi girl who on May 8, 1955, rescued six children, five of j them under six years of age, from a burning home in a rural; area in Tillamook County. Herj name was suggested by Elsie De-1 Cook, editor of the Tillamook! Headlight-Hearald. ,j Jimmie Whiteman, age 14, La Grande, who on June 6, 1955, is credited with saving a 17-year-old friend who had slipped into the swirling waters of the Grande: Ronde river. The suggestion comes from Fred Schneiter, Man ager of the La Grande Chamber of Commerce. Lynn Pettit, age 12, of Lebanon saved a six-year-old boy from drowning when he discovered him in four feet of water at the Lebanon Community swimming pool on July 19, 1955. He was suggested by Mrs. Arthur P. Christensen of Lebanon. Two suggestions for 1956 nominations for bravery have already been sent to Gov. Smith. Mrs. Patrick Mullen of San Bruno, Calif, is visiting at the Allen Case home. Long Distance Natlon-Wldf Moving Service Mayflower Agents Padded Vans Penlond Bros. TRANSFER CO.

Right now, your present car is at its peak worth. And, with the whole summer and almost half of '56 still ahead of you, you'll get more enjoyment out of a spirited new Buick this year if you buy now. Second, there's the matter of how much more automobile your money buys in the best Buick yet. We tell you flatly that nowhere but in a '56 Buick can you get so much bounty for so little booty. For example, take the beauteous big '56 Buick Sfeqal pictured here. It's one big reason why Buick now ranks in the top three of America's best-selling cars. Yet, you'll find it priced right close to the well-known smaller cars. That sure makes Buick a whale of a lot of car for the money. And look: Nowhere but in a '56 Buick can you get the absolute smoothness and the electrifying per formance of Buick's terrific new Variable Pitch Dynaflow. Nowhere else can you get the obedient respon siveness of Buick's big and mighty new 322-cubic-inch V8 engine. Or Buick's matchless new handling ease and ever-level ride buoyancy -or Buick's bold new sweep-ahead styling, and solidity of structure, and stretch-out roominess. Add it all up and the answer comes out the same, any way you figure it: Now 's the time to buy your 1956 Buick. Will you come in - before another sun sets -and get set with your best buy yet?
