It is a swell editorial and I thoroughly concur with all that you have said about him therein. I, too, am one of those who feels that this state will be fortunate if we have him and Guy Cordon as our Senators In Washington, and who feels that the country will be fortunate in the postwar days if we can have Senators of this calibre to assist in the forming of the postwar legisla tion. Very truly yours, Henry L. Corbett, Corbett Invest ment Co., Portland, Ore., Aug. 24th. There is the answer to the anti-Morse propagand ists if any is needed now. We doubt if there are many victims left, particularly in the Republican. ranks. But vou can never be sure of such things. Some of the primary die-hards may still be victims of the smear-Morse campaign, which tried to make out the former dean of the Oregon Law School, and ex-member of the War Labor Board was a New Dealer at heart and a pal of Harry Bridges.

Can anyone picture Henry Ladd Corbett of Portland, or any of the Corbetts or any of the Ladds in this state for that matter, having any truck with a potential New Dealer or a pal of Harry Bridges! Anyone who can, just doesn't know the Ladds or the Corbetts. Can't know either their political and economic views or their vast farm and property hold ings in this state. We don't mean by that, Henry Ladd Corbett is any reactionary, or could even qualify justly as one of President Roosevelt's "economic royalists.

Romania has quit the war, che entered with the same de gree of glee as Finland, and both could hardly wait to battle Russia, to their later sorrow. Romania was also at war with the United States, but not no ticeably. In the past this coun try has suffered much from the light-fingered gypsies of Ro mania, cluttering up the high ways and byways travelling round In Cadillacs. A chance now presents itself to get even without mentioning the name of the robbed citizens. When Herr Hitler captured Paris in 1940, he danced a Jig cf lov. To tune the gent up for the supreme punishment, he : very Carefully, should be marched back to , Paris, and Jig some more. has more extensive property interests at stake, the security of which will depend very largely upon the political course the government takes in the next four years. And H. C. Corbett is not only going to VOTE for Wayne Morse, but he is going to take off his coat and WORK for him! WHY? 1 1 Well, as he remarks in the note above, because he believes the state of Oregon NEEDS men of the calibre of Mr. Morse in the Upper House of congress the need being especially great in the business of forming the proper postwar legislation. And let this be added. The Ladds and the Corbetts of this state, don't give out any political endorsements freely or with "a half a pound of tea." They don't give out anything, with out looking over the postmark and the hand writing and head of the "Corbett Investment Co. of Portland" decided to support Wayne Morse for the U. S.

Washington, Aug. 25 (U.R) The special House committee investigating executive agen cies, citing an "urgent need" for action, today called on congress to restrict the wide and oftimes "assumed" authority of govern ment agencies such as the Of fice of Price Administration. In a report naming no spe cific agency but believed aimed primarily at the OPA and the War Labor Board, the commit tee urged passage of legislation to make sweeping changes in methods of settling disputes be tween individuals and agencies "which are assuming more and more of .the actual government of our nation." "If the citizens of the country are to have any protection what ever from the arbitrary actions of those in charge of executive agencies of the government," said Chairman Howard W. Smith ri Vn in nffprine the rannrl " ".nmmx, m,,ct anar-t ! "-lJwl'l ...uv proper legislation so that they may assert their rights in the proper courts of the land." "The administrative arm of government has expanded enor mously," he said, "and the signs are unmistakable that a vast field of administrative regula tion will continue to exist after hospilities cease." Smith said the new legisla tion should specifically prohibit any "implied powers" by gov ernment agencies. In the ab sence of c ongressional pro visions of powers to any agency, he said, their "assumption" is "a usurpation'of legislative au thority and an infringement upon c o n s t i t u tional govern ment." In previous reports, the com mittee singled out the OPA for special criticism for "usurping" authority. In particular, it de nounced what it called the niency's kangaroo courts where it acts as "investigator, "urose- cutor and Judge" in complaint ! cases. v To correct th'.i situation, the committee today outlined legis lation under which the Presi dent would name hearing offi cers to settle disputes between individuals and federal agen cies, 'with provisions for ulti mate court review.

"We applied full military power," Muldrow said, "nosed the plane down where we were less likely to be seen by the Jpp, circled to the left and start ed climbing so as to bring us up ! on the fighter's tail. We came out of the turn Just below the Jap and about 1200 feet distant." The bow, top turret and port waist gunners opened up. The Jap's starboard engine and wing flared and in another moment the port engine started to burn.
