The oldest university west of
Missouri was founded In 1842
by Lee and a group of other
nioneers who met at the old mis
sion house to consider the needs
of the Willamette university
community for an Institution of
higher learning. From this meet
ing grew the foundation for the
Oregon university, fore-runner
of Willamette university.
To Honor L. Collins
The first founders and bene
factors day will honor Lee and
the lute E. S. Collins, former
member of the board of trustees
and long a devoted friend of the I
university.
The university plans to hold
such a founders and benefactors
day each year, honoring one of
the first builders and one of the
later up-builders of the school.
As President bmith out it:
"It is the plan of the univer
sity to repeat this convocation
annually and each year to honor
two additional people who have
served with distinction in the
up-buildine of Willamette."
Program Planned
The date chosen for the con
vocation will fall each year as
near to r enruary i as possible.
It was on that date In 1842 that
Jason Lee and his colleagues
started actions that eventually
resulted in establishment of Wil
lamette university.

part in the chapel program, to
which the public has been invit
ed, win be kussoii Tripp of Al
bany, Ore., president of the Wil
lamette student body: Jack
Guiui of Monmouth, Ore., Col
lins scholar; Jason Lee, the uni
versity a canpella choir and
President Smith.
A Nicholi' Worth of
Comment On This and That
By HARMAN W. NICHOLS
United Prose future Writes
Washington, Jan. 27 (U.RI
Look at it this way, said the
congressman from Iowa:
The farmer
is "taking a
terrific 1 i c Ic
ing" In the
price he gets
for the things
he grows, while
he still is pay
i n g wartime
prices for what
he has to buy
"I'll g 1 v
LiMJ
Nichols
you a good ex
ample,'7 said
Rep. James I
Dolliver, e
nlcasnnt little
republican from Fort Dodge. "I
got letter from a dirt farmer
the other day who said he sold
a load of hogs for $700 about a
year ago. Twelve months later
this farmer carted twice the
number of hogs to market and
received only $623 for them.
"This fellow, like other farm
ers, has a right to raise a fuss.
He's paying the same price for
overalls, overshoes, hog feed
and everything else. It doesn't
add up."
The congressman warmed up
to his subject as we talked In
his suite in the new house office
building.
Dolliver explained that this
farmer, like many another, has
interest to pay on his invest
ment.
Mo Price Decrease
"The Interest has not de
creased," said the man from
Fort Dodge. "Neither has the
price he pays for seed, fertilizer,
equipment, repairs and the fuel
he needs to heat his home, his
hen house and to run his combine."
Also, he said, the price the
farmer gets for his products is
something over which the hay-
shaker has no control. But the
man In the city controls the
price the man in blue denim
oavs for a new milk nail
Dolliver argues, with consid
erable sense, that the farmer
can get along without the city
guy, but that the urbanite would
starve to death without the man
on the plow.
To put it another way, as the
Fort Dodge congressman did, the
"farmer has his hands tied with
baling wire."
"If you get too much steel in
the city, they turn down the fur
naces and cut down on produc
tion," he said. "But can a farmer
atop the corn from growing?
"No!
Can't Turn On Sun
"By the same token, the in
dustrialist can hypo his produc
tion when supplies get low. But
the farmer can't reach for a but
ton and turn on the sun during
a wet spell when the corn needs
heat. The farmer can't speed
the time for a calf to grow into
a cow that'll give milk. He can't
prod a hen into laying more
eggs when the market goes up.
He can't stop a cow from giv
ing a normal quota of milk just
Decau.se tne price has dropped.
