Erickson, Oregon state health officer, has reported. Dr. Erickson said statistical experts throughout the country were giving "active considera tion" to the plan, proposed at a recent public health confer ence on records and statistic at Washington, D. C. Neither the census bureau nor the federal bureau of the budget have ap proved the plan, Dr. Erickson said. Would Be First Time If these agencies give ap proval and Congress authorizes the 1955 -census, it will be the first time a national census has been taken on a five-year basis. The census now is taken every 10 years with the last popula tion count made in 1950. Dr. Erickson said "the ex tremely rapid growth in popula tion, coupled with the complex ity of' our present civilization" prompted the five-year census proposal.

TRIBUNE x Editorial Correspondence New York City, June 23 We never expected to praise the New York climate, especially in mid-summer. -But we not only praise it but consider it heavenly.

The Harlows are leaving for Europe in September and may remain over there for architectural research for a year or more. Mr. and Mrs. Alfred leave Thursday for the coast.

But during those last few days, what did the congress do? They voted FOR the spoils system, refused to follow out the civil service reforms not only ; advocated by President Truman but former President Hoover; and they voted to abolish price and wage controls practically all of them.

We surely hope they don't. If they do then we believe the old gag about giving the USA back to the Indians would meet with considerable approval. .- .

We predict this fact will become clearer and clearer as tne time ior tne naming m me presidential nominee approaches. We could hardly believe our eyes when we read David Law rence's column in the Herald-Tribune this morning Lawrence has been one of the Ohio senator's most ardent champions and yet here is his verdict after a return from a month's sojourn in Europe, quote: ... "If the Republican platform is hostile to Europe, or half hearted in its support of American aid to Europe's demoerac-. ies. peace in the world will be endangered. Moreover, millions of independent voters will then look toward the Democratic nominee for help." However, such a conclusion is perhaps not so surprising when one considers the verdict of every news commentator and polit ical news reporter we talked to when in 'Washington, WITHOUT A SINGLE EXCEPTION. . The verdict was unanimous: that while Senator Taft may well win the Republican nomination, he CAN'T win the election. Even such cynical wise guys as Walter Winchell and Drew Pearson expressed the same opinion, not to the undersigned but over the air. R.WJt. Babson Discusses Accidents . By Roger W. Babson New Boston, N.- H., June 27 (Special to Mail Tribune) The death of a friend has brought to my - attention this week both the economic loss to the country and the personal loss to rela tives from needless . auto mobile acci dents. - First let me admit that -these accidental deaths have not increased prcP portionately with the number of motor vehicles, although the deaths may have increased pro portionately with the mileage operated. When I was a student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, there were only four au tomobiles in . the Un ited States. When I was married in 1900, this had increased to only 8,000 automobiles, one of which I owned. Today there are about 45 million' automobiles and about 9 million trucks in operation. Truly this is a miracu lous industry. Unfortunately, most of the roads used today were laid out before automobiles - were even 0 f5PV5i Friday, June 27. 1932 peak. , , high cost of living but will vote m Air L i - 4Ui( in Droaa ouimie n, is sunpij- Kotwoon tv.o rpnrtionarv "Reoubli- -- Dixiecrats is working every day the exhibition could be in destruction! m that a maioritv of the top-bracket dreamed- of. The improvements in these roads have not begun to keep pace with the number of automobiles. This is primarily responsible for most accidents. We, - however, are now. entering a new road building industry of tremendous proportions. Great toll-roads, ; and super-highways, costing .-nearly $1,000,000 per mile, are being built. Those looking for employment oppor tunities or business profits should study super-highways, un derground parking, outdoor theaters and allied develop ments. Estimated 40.000 Killed Last Year It is estimated that there were about 40,000 persons killed by automobiles last year, and many, many times this number injur ed. Over r one-third of these deaths., were due . to collisions; and about ' one-third from non collision accidents,- such as run ning off the road. About 10,000 needless deaths were - the re sult of hitting careless . pedest rians. These new super-highways and improvements in existing roads should reduce the' collision and non-collision accidents, as well as save time, gasoline and main-, tenance.

The surface bone of contention is tnat w e failed to con- suit them w e with before bombed North Korea's Yalu river power plants. But under- neath, - it's much more than that. It's the British fear that they I'hil Newsoni will be dragged as our unwilling Allies into World War III. It's British poverty. It's the differ ences in British politics. It s Britain's other enormous com mitments abroad. It's the fact that Britain is used to giving or ders, not taking them. And along with everything else, it's the fear bora of pov erty. fer is . investors in railroad stocks, which so many people are now rushing to buy- due to temporary high defense earn ings). Very little is now being done, however, to reduce the deaths of pedestrians. Ninety per cent of these are in cities and towns and could be' eliminated Any reader of this column may be " the next pedestrian to be needlessly killed. Obey Existing Police Rules for Safely . Every up-to-date community has traffic lights and traffic of ficers, but neither of these safe ty measures supply the neces sary brains . and self-control to prevent people from disobeying traffic regulations. Pedestrians cross streets in any place with out regard for themselves, their families or the unfortunate auto driver who runs them down. In addition 'to 10,000 pedestrians being killed, 200,000 were in jured. Readers should resolve ' at once to cross streets only at in tersections, and to obey . care fully traffic lights where they exist. Children, at home and at school, should be trained to do this. Diagonal crossing of streets should be forbidden. Those who are caught doing so. should be fined, and the money used to employ more traffic officers.. A New Source Of Traffic Officers One economic problem today is finding work that the aged can do. While automobiles are increasing the number of deaths, modern drugs are increasing the length of life. This situation is being met by pensions, social se curity and old-age assistance. Unfortunately, politics has ser iously entered the latter and the politicians are fighting over whether names should be made available to the public. Relief and old-age assistance are great ly increasing each year; in many cities the cost is second only to school costs. A large percentage of the tax dollar now goes to old-age assistance and relief. Now here is my suggestion: Let us organize the able-bodied men and women who are. now on relief as "Safety Monitors" in uniform. These individuals would work only a few hours a day; but contribute their time without pay. They should be stationed ' at different locations to prevent people from crossing the streets except at marked places. The very presence of these ''Safety Monitors" would tremendously reduce the death and accident toll. By taking the names of those who fail to ob serve the traffic rules, fines could be collected which would materially reduce the cost of relief assistance. I am very ser ious about this . suggestion and hope that every one of the 400 communities in which this col umn is published will give some thought to it " . By Roland Co It is that, far from hurrying the Chinese into a truce, it actu ally might very well goad them intp extending the war. Would Involve Europe Any extension . of the war which might, involve Russia, automatically would involve Europe, and then, for Britain, another blitz and the Coventries of the last war multiplied many times by the atom bomb. Meanwhile, Britain's slide to ward national bankruptcy has been allowed but not stopped. Rightfully, Britain reminds us that in Malaya and Suez she is maintaining more troops than we are in Korea. And, in Korea, she is represented by. the Com monwealth Division. Except for one important fac tor, our reply might be, "so what?" Britain's world - stakes are the same as ours, and, so far as Korea" is concerned, we are paying the great bulk of the bill, both in dollars and manpower. The exception lies in our own need for allies and in Britain's precarious position at home. Can Dethrone Churchill Aging Winston Churchill rules his government .with an iron hand, but he can be dethroned So long as Churchill or his con servative party . are in charge, Britain's rearmament program will parallel ours and our poli cies toward Russia will be rough ly the same. But there is growing up in the opposition party a strong leftist element whose leanings place them not too far from the teachings of Earl Marx and who believe that friendly relations with Communist Ritesia are not only possible but .practical. Churchill needs only to lose about a score of votes to make this, element a real threat to continued close Anglo-American relations. New Buss Policy Seen . . Along with Britain's internal situation is the new policy which seemingly the Russians are de veloping. " This Russian policy seems to be two-pronged but to have as its goal the single ambition of isolating the United States. In such countries as France and Italy, the word seems to have gone out to the Communist faithful to drop their strong-arm tactics and to align themselves with other so-called "peace" par ties to sabotage rearmament. For hard-up Britain there is the additional bait of' vastly in creased trade which could cure all her economic ills. Must Improve Bait. - One of Andrei Gromyko's jobs, when fye takes' over as Russian , ambassador to Britain undoubtedly will be to make the bait even, more attractive. There's no point in underesti mating Russian abilities. We also must consider that we might lose Britain as an ally. Consultation with her on the conduct of the Korean War seems a small price to pay for her continued whole hearted support. Bark Extraction Agreement Signed Salem (U.R) Gov. Douglas McKay has signed in behalf of the State Board of Forestry an option agreement with the M. W. Kellogg Co., Jersey City, N. J., covering the Kurth bark extraction process developed at the-Oregon Forest Products lab oratory in Corvallis. The option agreement pro vides for the payment of $2,000 to the board within 15 days after signing by the governor and thereafter the company has eight months in which to make studies of markets and other details pending final decision as to sign ing of the formal license.

Oregon Voters Expected To Have Chance To By WILLIAN WARREN Salem (U.R) It 'looks like Oregon v6ters will have a chance to pass on pari-mutuel betting next November. But a move to return prohib ition to Oregon apparently has fallen by the wayside, Dave 0lara, head of the State Elec tions Bureau, said Thursday. No completed petitions for in itiative measures have yet been filed. But a proposal backed by the Oregon Council of Churches to ban betting in Oregon, including pari-mutuel betting on horse and dog racing, apparently has enough signatures to make the grade by the deadline July 3 just one week from now. Liquor by Drink Seen- Another initiative measure, to allow the sale of liquor by the drink over the bar apparently has a good chance to make the grade, O'Hara said. That mea sure, if successful, would re move the necessity of toting along a bottle whenever a per son goes to a night club. A proposed constitutional am endment which would shift a large part of the highway tax burden from the big truckers, who already have evaded $2, 000,000 imposed by the 1951 leg islature in increased taxes, to the motoring public. It is an am endment promoted by the big truckers, spearheaded by form er State Public Utilities Commis In the Days News By FRANK JENKINS Averell Harriman, gunning for the Democratic nomination for President on a platform of com plete and unqualified allegiance to Mr. Truman's foreign and do mestic programs, tells an audi ence in Tacoma that the Demo cratic party now has a "phony majority in congress of men masquerading a s Democrats" and calls for their ouster, along with the Republicans they vote with. He refers to Republicans as "grim old pessimists." DID you ever notice that a grim old pessimist frequently leaves his heirs well heeled whereas the rosy optimists who believe in SOMETHING FOR NOTHING nearly always leave their descendants strapped and in debt THE National Geographic So ciety reports that 100 miles above the earth the wind blows 1,000 miles' an hour, but adds: "If you were up there in the ionosphere, exposed to those winds, you'd find them too weak to blow your hat off. The reason is that at such . heights there is little atmosphere." rjHAT is to say: If you were up there and had a puncture you'd have a heck of a time -blowing up a tire because there wouldn't be air enough to blow it up with. I think I'll stay down here. s AN Francisco: "Waxey Gordon, who rode in armored limousines when he was making two million dollars a year as underworld boss of New York's prohibition brew eries, died at Alcatraz. last night as plain Irvin Wexler, a sick old man under one prison sentence and facing another." Brief epitaph: Justice finally caught up with him. RUSSIA tells the rest of the world to keep its planes away from Soviet territory or run the risk of having them shot down or interned.

The journalist challenged a teacher audience yesterday at Southern Oregon college to teach pupils how to differentiate between falsehoods and the truth. Jenkins deplored the failure of the United States to combat propaganda with truth in the Asian boiling pot, stating that we have lost all chances of halting Russian advances on. that con-; tinent. He also criticized severe ly the federal administration for withholding news until political ly expedient times in a domestic propaganda threat. Traces Red Growth Tracing the growth of Com munism, Jenkins said-Lenin took the radical turn left when he realized that it would be possible to concentrate " power . in the hands of a few. He pointed out that only 5,000,000 Communists govern a population of 200 000,000. . The speaker described the sue-' Ballot on Gambling sioner George H. Flagg, to re move the ton-mile tax on trucks. It would leave them only with the plate fees and motor fuel oil taxes now paid by truckers and automobile owners alike, and would mean heavier expens es, officials here say, for .the motorist. Time Change Issue Oregonians will apparently have another chance to pass an other highly controversial issue standard or daylight time. A measure backed by the Oregon Farmers union to keep Oregon on standard time and do away with daylight time in Oregon apparently will make the dead line. Observers here have ex pressed doubt of the workability of such a measure. They pointed out that several Oregon cities are on daylight time right now although Gov. Douglas McKay declined to designate fast time in Oregon, and all state offices have their cjocks set at standard time. A measure to reapportion the legislature has a chance. It is backed by Young Republicans and Young Democrats and the League of Women Voters. Milk Control Talked " An echo of the colored oleo margarine fight in the 1951 leg islative session is heard in an in itiative measure to limit the au thority of the state milk control administrator. It is backed by the affiliated milk committee of Gov. Warren Explains Stand on Big Issues Sacramento, Calif. U.R) Gov. Earl Warren has explained in a single package his stand on taxes, price controls, FEPC, health insurance, UMT and oth er major domestic and foreign issues. Warren's headquarters in Cal ifornia issued a booklet con taining all of the governor's published campaign views. Differences Found Differences between War ren's beliefs and those of the two ranking candidates Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower and Sen. Robert A. Taft can be found in several places. For example, Warren advocates a Federal Fair Employment Practices law while "Ike" has said he is against com pulsory FEPC. Taft favors arm ing the Chinese Nationalists for an invasion of the China main land while Warren said such a move would embroil the United States in an all-out war. While Eisenhower claimed the budget could be cut by $40,000, 000,000 and. Taft promised an outright J5 per cent tax cut, Warren said a pledge of an im mediate tax Teduction "cannot honestly be made." Tax Saturation Felt The California governor con ceded federal taxes "have prac tically reached the saturation point" and came out with a ders a wide berth. TN FACT, I can think of nothing nicer than Russia as a COM PLETE isolationist never per mitting any of her own people to cross her borders on the way out and never allowing anybody on the outside to cross her bor der on the way in. That would be wonderful. TN WASHINGTON two Pacific -Coast senators split on the merits of a bill to place a tariff of three cents a pound on im ports of fresh and frozen tuna. (The bill was aimed at imports of tuna from Japan.) Senator Cain of Washington endorsed the proposed tariff as a defense move, asserting that "a well equipped American tuna fleet is as important to our na tional defense as radar and sup ply ships." Senator Cordon of Oregon op posed the bill on the ground that cessful "divide and conquer" theory, explaining that key peo ple in nations marked for ab sorotion are told they will be given absolute power. As exam ples of the "big lie" technique, he referred to the familiar "Wall Street Dollar Chaser" characteri zation of Americans and the cur rent germ warfare charge in Korea. Influence Chance Lost Jenkins said the United States lost any hope of exerting influ ence in Asia when the adminis tration sided with European co lonialists rather than freedom seeking nationalists. He explain ed that such opportunism on our part played directly into Russia's promise of self rule. Turning to the national scene, the newspaper publisher said it is a great tragedy that the source of almost all news in this coun try is controlled by the White House, the Pentagon and the State Department. He said it is no longer possible to believe any thing at face value, pointing out that the administration releases vital facts only as such informa tion is needed to influence cur rent legislation.: - ."There has been too much power in too few hands too long," the speaker concluded, i which Irene Taylor of Portland is chairman and State Rep. Mau rine Neuberger of Portland is a member. Rep. Neuberger led the fight for colored oleo in the house. The measure would enable the milk control administrator to establish minimum prices to the consumer but would remove his authority to establish mini mum prices for the consumer. The effect of this would be to al low a differential for store bought milk as against home- delivered milk. Commercial Fishing Another initiative with a chance to make the ballot would ban commercial fishing in coast al streams. Apparently doomed to die with the July 3 deadline are measures, to: Bar barbering on Monday; bar commercial fishing at night on the Columbia riv er; appeal the bonus Oregonians voted in November, 1950, to their veterans of World War II; and establish a gross income tax. to finance a $100 a month old age pension plan. Nine acts referred by the leg islature will be voted on. And three acts are being referred by petition the truck tax in crease, a cigarette tax of three cents a pack, and a school re organization proposal which re sulted from the survey of Ore gon's school systems by Dr. T. C. Holey of. Ohio State univer sity. three-point program to cut down by an unspecified amount what he called "excessive national taxation." Warren's stand on other ma jor issues included: Economic controls the whole idea of artificial controls on the economy of our nation is abhor ent to me. However, in times of grave national emergency, con trols may be urgently required to maintain economic balance and prevent run-away inflations. United Nations The UN should be the cornerstone of our foreign policy. Favors Military Training Universal military training Every young man should receive such training and hold himself in readiness for active service during the crisis. I would not send him away from home to a, training camp for a year, or ev en six months. I would have the program geared to a high er educational program so that in one prolonged vacation per iod he could get basic training. Health insurance There must be a way 'to bring good medical care within the econom ic reach of these people famil ies that are self-sustaining on a modest income. I believe it can be done in each state on the insurance principle, whereby people can prepay for their med ical care. Oregon needs imports of tuna fish caught by the Japanese in order to keep all its packing plants operating. THE senate killed the bill by by a vote of 43 to 32. I think it was right in doing so. The BIG question is shall we let the Japanese earn their way in the world by selling to us at least as much as they buy from us or shall we SUPPORT them indefinitely under a global WPA? I think we'd better let them earn their own way. "ITOU'VE heard a lot about this - business of "shortage" of dol lars that is playing hob with in ternational trade. Maybe you don't know what it means. It means just this: We've sold the rest of the world SO MUCH MORE than the rest of the world has sold to us that there are no longer dollars enough to go around. So, from here on out we'll either have to GIVE OUR GOODS AWAY or buy enough goods from other nations to balance the account. Foreign trade is a two-way road. It won't work indefinitely as a ONE-WAY road. That's the long and the short of it. THAT REMINDS ME OF THE SWELULIFTA DISH OF RICH MAID iCE CREAM 6 IVES YOU.
