C0RVALLIS, Oregon, April 26. The "Willamette valley is
beautiful now aa is all the world in spring. From Medford
to Corvallis everything is growing and green one can almost
SEE the leaves lengthen out and change a skeleton tree of wood,
into a plump fat 'Smowball" of luscious foliage. And spring
has this great advantage over fall it has youth and LIFE.
Fall is more colorful and beautiful but it's nearing the end,
which is always sad.
One striking difference noted In the landscape this spring'
over a year ago. Very little gram planted this year and what
is, hasn't poked up from the soil as yet apparently it was too
wet to plant winter wheat it's all "SPRING." Also several
orchards along the highway wrecked trees, some of them in
bloom pulled up and lying prone. Something rather terrible
about that, killing life just as it starts crushing youth just as
it blooms. (Retter put on the brakes here or we will be bursting
out into mournful song.)

So the season is backward, but nothing backward about the
wild mustard. Can't recall such a display in this state before,
the thin, strident yellow being scattered everywhere, and in
some places solid fields of mustard as if being grown deliber
ately for commercial purposes. Have to ask some one in the
college about this.
The long rains have stopped, but Old Sol is still having a
tough time up here, o.k. when he hops out of bed in the morn
ing, the birds are singing, the skies clear, but almost invari
ably an hour later it's cloudy again and the sun is pretty much
obscured until noon, when it has a brief burst and then another
one just before it goes to bed, the 'tother side of the Pacific.
Many people are like that, full of speed when they got up in
the morning, but struggling against physical clouds most of
the day.

Everyone one sees Is for Governor Martin, but that doesn't
iool the present writer, who has met a similar unanimity before.
There is, no doubt, however, that except in radical and ULTRA
liberul circles the governor is TREMENDOUSLY POPULAR.
And this can be put down as reasonably certain:
If there is large representative vote out, the Governor will
win, if there isn't, he won't. For this is true in politics as m
human nature hate is far more EFFECTIVE than love a
person who HATES some other person, will do far more to
injure him, than a person wno L,nUiO someone win u w ucix...
that person. (We are quite sure that sentence violates all the
rules of A. S. Hill's rhetoric 'but perhaps the idea can be
rescued from the verbiage if the reader works hard.)

One is constantly met by the inquiry "Are you STILL for
Roosevelt!" and raised eyebrows and a look of incomprehen
sion when the answer is in the affirmstive. No one can seem
to understand it. STRANGE!
We didn't support Roosevelt because of his smile or that
beguiling radio voice but because we" believed he had the
right idea about what should be
the repair and reform of the
concerned.
As we see it he has not changed in his FUNDAMENTAL
purposes. So why should we, or anyone else desert him as
long as we believe in the ESSENTIALS of his program, even
though he may make mistakes, serious ones, on the non
essentials! Why above ALL should we go over to someone
who doesn't, and never has, believed in those aims, or those
principles 1

and it probably won't do any good,
but, If the president wanU It, we
may a well let him have It."
Beneath the surface, nowever, mere
are signs. The officers 01 tne sena
torial battalion of death, the men
whom the president most fears, have
met and laid tentative plans. 8ena-
n.,H nt Virginia. Annator Wheeler
I of Montana. Benator Oerry of Rhode
Inland, Senator Bailey of North Caro
lina. Senator Vandenherg of Michi
gan and Senator Borah of Idaho have
pretty well agreed to lead a fight for
ear-marking of the public works
fund.
They have decided that It la hope
leas to try to oppose spending per
ae. and some of them, llko Senator
Wheeler, do not want to do so. They
rightly oonalder the request for a
new public works fund aa the heart
of the spending program, and they
are especially apprehensive that the
fund will be used to rebuild the pres
ident's atrength In atrateRio places.
Thus their resort to the ear-marking
which many conservatives have ad
vocated. Soon a series of regular meetings
of the anti-administration leaders will
begin. Senator Byrd hss already been
recogntred as the general of the
forces, and he can be counted on
to fight as pretty relentless cam
paign. Senator Gerry will play the
part of whip. Just aa he did In the
court bill and reorganisation fights.
And. once more, the Republicans ha vc
a greed to lie as low as possible.
So much for the plans. They are
all tentative, of course, and may col
lapse any day under the pressure of
oncoming primaries. Yet their e-
istence suggests that there may be
trouble ahead for the president.
For him. ear-marking of the pub
lic works fund would bo a galllugly
bitter pill. In the first place, his
economic adviser believe that a fund
wronxty spent will do no good. And.
In the second, there can be no doubt
that the president and his aldea hope
for some political good effects from
their spending. Luckily for the presi
dent, however, he has one good de
fense against earmarking, which Is
the difficulty of knowing how to ear
mark At the moment, the opposition sen
atrs sre searching for an earmarking
formula much In the frantic, hap
harard manner of children playing
"button, button, who's go the hut
ton?" The ahou of "pork barrel"
Is too much feared to permit ear
msrklnc hv proect.. and all form
ula thus far devised for earmarking
by classes of projects are either too
done in this country as far as
social and economic machine is
vague or too objectionable to some
powerful group. .
If a formula can be discovered, It
la not a bad prediction that the op
position senators will win. And It
no formula la deacovered, It la not
unlikely that there will be riders to
the public works bill, forbidding the
expenditure of more than 10 percent
of the money In any state and an
noying the president In other waya
Thus far. this has been a review
of the uncertainties In congress's re
sponse to spending. Among them,
however, one certainty can be dis
cerned. If the same senators lead
the fight to beat the president on
the spending program as led the fight
on the court and reorganization bills,
there can be no doubt that the ad
ministration now has a determined,
cohesive and effective opposition.
Through the first New Deal years,
no real opposition to the White Hons?
could be found In congress. Opposi
tion arose on constitutional Issues,
but for a long time stopped theie.
Now It promises to extend Itself to
an appropriation bill. There is an
old legislative maxim worth remem
bering, that "anyone who wants to
fight an appropriation bill really
wants to fight."

NEW KNOWLEDGE
Dally the question comes up as to
what makes the teeth of certain per
sons so soft and so susceptible to
decay. If the victims of 'this con
dition have any
Idea at all about
It they generally
mention that I
dentist has ex
pressed the opin
ion that It Is be
cause of some
thing lacking In
their food. For
merly the pre
vailing notion
was that they
hadn't taken
good care of their
teeth.
Now all that Is based wholly on
'conjecture ant) hearsay, and In no
degree on any scientific experiment
Investigation or any large scale ob
servation or study of controlled hu
man experience. But It has been re
peated so .often that, for many, it
has come to seem the truth.
On the other hand, we have
enough scientific experimental evi
dence and enough cllalcal or actual
study of experience of various tribes
of people living under reasonably
controlled condition, to convince an
unbiased or open mind of the fact
that carles or decay or cavity forma
tion In the teeth and gingivitis or
pyorrhea or chronic Inflammation
and shrinking or recede nee of the
gums are due mainly to deficiencies
of the diet, particularly Insufficient
assimilation and utilization of cal
cium (lime) and phosphorus and in
sufficient Intake of vitamins, par
ticularly vitamins D, o and, at least
according to English authorities, vita
min A.
There is still room for argument
regarding the Importance of an ade
quate daily intake of vitamin C to
prevent dental carles and gingivitis
(gum Inflammation), but. there can
be no argument against the general
advisability of getting a fair amount
of vitamin C every day, for growing
children and young adults as well as
for Infanta. It ts now the universal
custom to feed Infants a little orange

TILLAMOOK, Ore.. April 11. IPl
A forest fire blazed laat week on Mt,
Hebo. high In the Sluslaw national
forest. A lonely motion picture cam
eraman aimed his lens at the wall
of flame and stood his ground aa the
fire advanced.
Into the camera field came 60 CCC
forest guardsmen, walking In alngle
file parallel to the la. Those In
front carried axes. A second group
had Pulaski tools (combination axes
and grub hoes.) The rear guard was
armed with shovels.
Walk and Awing.
As the line moved ateadlly across
the face of the fire, each man took a
lusty swing with his Implement every
two or three steps. The pace was
only slightly slower then a man would
normally walk. '
When the line had passed, every
tree In lea path had been cut, every
bush grubbed out and the dulf re
moved to leave a ribbon of moist
earth along the route of march. The
fire burned to the edge of the path
way and stopped.
The camera eeased to grind. The
operator had recorded one of the
latest Improvements In flre-flghtlng
technique the "one-lick method" of
building a fire line.
The plan, suggested "by Roy Head
Icy, ohlef of fire control for the U.
S. forest service, and used In the
national forests of Oregon and Wash
ington for the past two' years, is an
adaptation of the conveyor method of
assembling automobiles In modern
plants.
Men Stay In Line.
Formerly the flrellne crew spread
out and each man worked In one spot
unin nis snort sector of line wss
complete. Now each man takes one
swipe with his axe, pulaskl or shovel
ar. he walks by. The next man does
the same, and the next and the ueirt.
The last to pass puts the finishing
roucn on tne iirellne at a given point.
Jack Campbell, regional fire con
trol ohlef. ssys the plan has ma
terially speeded up the building of
fire breaks. He was directed to film
lt operation for the benefit of other
regions.
The "one-lick" method wss evolved
on the Rogue River national forest by
K. P. McReynolds. asslstsnt forester,
In collaboration with Karl L. Janouch.
supervisor. The method was first tried
out by Mr. McReynolds on the Apple
gate sector of the forest In 1938.
Development of the one-lick meth
od resulted from a report received by
lorest neaaquartera here from Wash
lngton, Mr. janouch related today.
l ne report said that the forest serv
ice had developed a high standard of
efficiency In the use of machinery In
fighting fires but the efficient use of
man-power seemed to be legging.
With this report In mind. Mr. Ja
nouch and Mrs. McReynolds set to
work to Increase the efficiency of
i flre-flghtlng personnel. The "one
lick" method wss the result. Mr. Mc
Reynolds was then In chsrge of fire
control on the Rogue River nstlonal
fortst. He now holds the same posi
tion on the Umpqua national forest
with headquarters In Roseburg:
"Mr. 'McReynolds conceived and
perfected the method and deserves
full credit." Mr. Jsnouch said.
So Important and revolutionary was
the "one-lick" process that the Port
land regional forester's office suggest
ed that the method be explained to
a meeting of foresters from all parts
of the country In Spokane. Wash .
and that was done by Mr. McReynolds
In 1936. Mr. Janouch related. Mr. Mc
Reynolds wss prslsed for the lucidity
of his presentation and the "one
lick" method became a standard pro
cess of forest fire fighting all over the
country, Mr. Janouch stated.

No question but fishing is
an honest sport,
Where honesty slips is in
the fisherman's report.
How I wish I could hit a
SUPER lucky day . . .
Catch just ONE of those
whales that "got away"
Then I'd race back home, get
a Chevrolet truck.
And boy, oh boy, would I
broadcast my luck!
'Spose it's "whoppers" they
lose from a broken snell,
Or maybe the whoppers they
come home an' tell !
