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

SHORT NOVEMBER BALLOT
Breathe deep for a sigh of re
lief Mr. Voter.
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.

(And at the Best Buy Yet!)
What's in it for you if you step out and
buy yourself a 1956 Buick right now?
Well, first of all the time is right.
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?
