And that doesn't ineluda the

their whiffs of nature in state

4.234.310 persons who merely
passed through the national for

Plcale spots abound throughout Oregoa's regions of natural
beauty. Many of them are equipped with outdoor stone fire
places such as the one aboro.

army.
It was a great year for pic
nics the greatest, in fact, in
Oregon, but it won't be up to
1940.
Because now TO out of every

gon car ownership.
The people just have to have
these cart because otherwise
they couldn't get out to some
enchanted spot of their choos
ing on Saturday or Sunday and
back to the old job. With aU
that fishing, swimming, hiking,
surf playing, crabbing, clam
ming, snowballing and skiing,
scenery and glorious air beck
oning, the magnet is well nigh
irresistible. The people have to
go. And they door so a survey
conducted by The Oregonian
Oregon State Motor association

The paid servants at Salem
and Washington, D. C. have
fixed things up pretty nice.
Nature at its best wss out there
all the time. But there had to
be roads. If people were to go
tor a day or overnight or for a
week there must be water to
drink, water for fire protection,
space for cars and trailers, fire
places for cooking, tables, play
grounds, safe swimming and
other conveniences. All has
been provided.
Its a reasonably safe asser-
tlon that every man, woman for state parks.
and child in Oregon could close
up shop and go on a picnic or
camping Jaunt at one and the
same time and find modern
conveniences and all the elbow
room required for a perfect
day.
The national forest parks ars
the ones that apparently ring
the bell in these parts. It may
be due to the policy of manage
ment As F. V. Horton, assistant
regional United States forester
in charge of recreation, puts it,
the idea Is to avoid regimenta
tion. By that he means that
when the town fellow takes the
little woman and the kids to the
forests to make a day of it
ha does so that all may enjoy
freedom. Not that the city and
town dwellers ars exactly im
prisoned in their daily lives,
he says, but because they live
along daily-practiced lines that
in the happiest of homes and
most satisfactory offices and
stores and factories there is in
cluded a good deal of sameness.
So the forest policy is to expect
and require only those stand
ards that most people naturally
observe and the parks are
theirs. That ranger, if you hap
pen to see one, is not a cop
policing you. He's Just a swell
chap trying to help you get a
biKEer kick. That's the United
States forest policy and it goes

Salem. June 10. iP Master
Ray W. Gill of the Oregon State
Grange said today "it is the duty
of every patriotic citizen to sup
ply any information that will
lead to the protection of our
country from fifth column activi
ties." In an address prepared for the
opening session of the five-day
67th annual grange convention.
Gill warned that fifth column
activities "are seeking to handi
cap our defense program." and
that "over iealous patriots may
try to take the law into their
own hands."
Tight for P. U. D.'s
The master said the grange
would fight with renewed vigor
for people's utility districts, as
serting "our sow progress to-
wsrd public ownership Is retard
ing the development of the state
and we are losing opportunity
after opportunity to advance our
agricultural and industrial pro
gress." The National Grange, he said
would continue to seek repeal
of the reciprocal trade agree
ments program, under which
"our country has entered intdl
a lopsided bargaining program."
He said the program has handi
capped American farmers.
Gill proposed that corporation
farming be restricted by taxa
tion and by denial of agricutural
subsidies, and he promised the
grange would continue to sup
port legislation to tax chain
stores.
For Age Pensions
The grange, he said, will sup
port legislation requiring lobby
ists at the state legislature to
register, and It will advocate
that old age pensions be financed
by taxes on incomes, inheri
tances, luxuries, gifts and cor
porations, instead of by taxes on1
sales and property.
The grange will. Gill said,
seek passage of a law to prohibit
sale of liquor near dance halls,
schools and gasoline stations.
Gill recommended a tax pro
gram which Includes higher fed
eral taxes on high and medium
incomes, higher tate income
taxes and higher taxes on large
farming operations. He recom
mended that the grange oppose
sales taxes, tax exempt securi
ties, home exemptions, and a tax
millage limitation.
