HEFFNEI GAZETTE-TIMES. Thursday. Nombr 30. 1961 Ullman Declares Positive Thought Is Prime Need (Cuntlnuttl from Page 1) Farm-City Speech Hits Loose Talk (Otnilnuttl from Vay.r it In Congr, Ullman flnrU that hf rftircM-ni one of the Ian? clUtri.t In the nation, he told ni au(lcii.

As a result of his trip to Eur 0e that started at Iceland, then went to Scotland. Berlin, the Aieonerranean, Gibraltar and Morocco, the congressman said "I came away with a far better view of these people and their prooiems. lie found Iceland friendly de spite the rejKirt that they were nor inenaiy to Americana, He spoke of the polarU sub marine, ohserved at Scotland nml said of It, "There Is no more effective or modern weapon on the face of the earth." As to Berlin, he observed, "No where on the face of the earth do you see a more dramatic con trast between our way of life and inn communists way or lire. West Berlin is a showplace of democracy. The other side la a dead world." Current feeling Is that rather than move In with bulldozers to break down the communists' bar ricado, the best course to follow Is to focus world attention on the situation. Congressman Ullman stated the feeling that the only way to approach communism is with a show of strength and declared that we are far ahead of the soviet in many areas. However, he expressed the con viction that it is "terribly lm portant to move in and widen the schism developing between the Kcd Stalinists and Khrush chev communists." After his appearance here, the congressman went on an eiK Four out of every 10 pw.ple are engaged In farming or nave farm connected employment, h ald. As to the "We talk" that he dcKrrlhed, he aMrtcrf. "There I treat concern aljut tlie dccrca lug number of farm. But tliU is a very natural tlilruf.

"But the facts are that he gets 2 34 per cent for the wheat In a loaf of bread. He's not getting rich from the basket of groceries bought at the store. At the same time, Ballard de clared that It is equally untrue hat "all farmers are going broke," another area of "loose talk." While farmers received a great deal less pay than many industries, they are not all going broke. l'oiiitlnn to still another "fal lacy," the speaker said that hose who challenge the $G bil lion budget of the Department of Agriculture on the grounds that it all goes for benefit of the farmer are badly mistaken. Much of this Is for the public at large food Inspections, loans nd other services given by the epartment. He challenged as "loose talk the frequent complaint that farmers are supported by sub sidies, saying that wages are set by the labor board arid "that is a form of subsidy to the lab orer, that transportation rates are regulated and "that is an other form of subsidy." "We live in a subsidized so- ety," declared Ballard, "and here Is no reason why farmers shouldn t talk to their Congress men when they are furnishing food cheaper than ever before." He added that subsidies are a mere fraction of the total agri Episcopal Bazaar Set For Saturday Annual Christmas bataar of (!.. f'iiiMial women Mill I Siiif'iv ifc-tfinU-r 2. at the! pari-h hall of AU Saints' Fpls copal church.

He told of coming to Oregon on a freight train without any money and of being "kicked off" at Hood River. He started work in Hood Iilver Valley and thought it to be the most beaut iful place in the State of Oregon. As to the state's future, he said, "Don't be misled about a lot of plpedreams about manu facturing just because we have some electricity. It won't hap pen in your time or my time." He continued by saying, how ever, that everything that nap ens to forestry or agriculture this state, as its principal industries, affects everyone in the state. Ballard told of problems of agriculture, and pointed out that ironically, lack of water in sum mer Is the Willamette Valley greatest problem. Irrigation will find increasing use both in west em and eastern Oregon, he pre dieted. Grasses will convert more and more sageland to rangeland, he added.
