Who Is At Fault?
To the Editor: When the long
remembered Will Rogers said
that all he knew was what he
read in the newspapers, it's
Hnnhtfiil if h realized the basic
j importance of that statement.
In a democracy like ours wnere
it's people constitute a jury on
controversies, especially of na
tional importance, it is vitally
necessary that the people be in
formed of facts in the case.
Take the longshoremen's
strike that tied up the entire
N. Y. harbor that included a car
go shipment of cobalt held up
that is still felt in the defense
setup. We were let or allowed to
think that it was communist
schemed up, which could have
been. It wasn't that save in a
very minor degree. A Tecent
magazine article told how it was
a strike of union members
against their leaders who were
in cahoots with political gang
sters who were allowed to run
in favorites for the morning
"showup" for work.
Though the union got them
high wages, the regular long
shoremen were working on star
vation pay. Why did not the
newspapers report this at the
time so that this nation's people
could know where the fault lay?
Now we have a paralyzing
strike on the N. Y. Central. The
newspapers are not saying why
the railway brotherhood mem
bers are refusing to work at this
time when our very existence as
a nation is at stake. Are they
communist led or do they have
grievances so great that they can
risk national censure, including
that of our boys across the sea
fighting for this very freedom
that the railroad brotherhood is
apparently flouting?
The vote our f orebearers
fought and bled for is our
strength when we know the
facts.. It is our weakness when
the truth is not given us. Let us
know why and just who is at
fault in this frightening rail
way strike.

Republicans in News;
Candidates
A "candidates' night" for
Jackson county Republicans will
be held at the Medford YMC A
Thursday evening it was an
nounced yesterday.
Under the joint sponsorship
of the Jackson County Young
Republicans and the Jackson
County Republican Women, the
meeting will be attended by a
number of candidates for public
office at the May 16 primary
election.
Two other Republican candi
dates were in the news this week
end. Fred Robinson, Medford, one
of three Republican candidates
for nomination as state treasurer,
reported on the organization of
his campaign throughout the
state, and the father of Catherine
Holtz, a Medford woman who is
a Candidate for election as an at
large delegate to the Republican
national convention, issued infor
mation about her candidacy.
Candidates Coming
The Republican meeting
Thursday will begin at 8 p. m.
and several candidates from oth
er sections of the state will be
present to explain their qualifi
cations for office, according to
Bob Dickey, county Young GOP
chairman. Mrs. Stephen Nye,
county vice-chairman of the Re
publican Women's group and its
program director, said that "most
of the people in this part of the
state do not have an opportunity
to meet with candidates for state
office from other areas. This type
of program will assist in this dif
ficulty.
Mrs. Nye and Dickey urged all
county Republicans to attend,
and stressed the fact that the
multiple choices in a primary
election face the voter with the
responsibility of informing him
self about candidates.
Refreshments will be served
during the meeting.
Committees Organised
Robinson, a brief one-time can
didate for nomination as U. S.
senator, returned to Medford
Friday from a swing throughout
the sta.te in behalf of his candi
dacy for the state treasurer's job.
He said committees for him have
been organized in Portland,
Klamath Falls, Bend, Salem, As
toria and Lebanon.
"Fine enthusiasm" for his can
didacy has been noted, he said,
and has been supported by influ
ential backing.
Committee chairmen in the
cities named will be L. R. Hen
ierson, Portland; Jimm Kern Jr.,
Klamath Falls: Clifford Harold,
Salem; Dr. O. W. Lindbergh, As
toria, and Wendell Granso, Leb
anon. A chairman will be named
soon in Bend, he said.
Charles D. Wheeler of the
weekly Capital Press, Salem, will
aid Robinson in the campaign
as publicity director. He has a
wide acquaintanceship in Ore
gon, particularly the eastern por
tion, Robinson said.

New Location Possible
For The Dalles Bridge
The Dalles (U.R) Wasco
County Judge Ward Webber re
ported to officials here Saturday
that a compromise settlement can
possibly be reached with the fed
eral government to permit the
construction of The Dalles
bridge at a new site.
Judge Webber is in Washing
ton, D.C.. conferring with mem
bers of the Oregon congression
al delegation and the army
engineers regarding compensa
tion to the county for the extra
expense involved in rebuilding
the bridge at a new location.
He indicated that the negotia
tions will probably continue
with the army engineers in Port
land at a later date.
Construction of The Dalles
dam necessitated the re-location
of the bridge.
