"THERE ARE sections of Oregon which must know

43 of these areas.

More and More Leaving Farms
The question propounded in the old song, "How're
you going to keep 'em down on the farm?" has yet
to be answered and more and more farm people are
migrating to the cities. The movement, accelerated
since the early forties by war and by the great in
crease in non-agricultural employment opportunities,
has brought the farm population down to a new low.
CIGURES compiled jointly
Census and the Department of Agriculture put the
number of persons on farms at 21.9 million in April
this year. This was equal to l3y2 per cent of the coun
try's entire population, the lowest proportion on
record.
. In 1950, the number
was over Z5,uuu,uuo and the proportion .to the total
population was 16.6 per cent. Just before Pearl Har
bor, in 1941, the farm population was 30,000,000 and
represented 22.7 per cent of the entire U.S. popula
tion. Back in 1910, the first year for which figures
are available, the farm population exceeded 32,000,-
uuu ana represented more than a third of the country's
total population.
TTHE FIGURES show that over the last four and one
half decades the number of persons living on
farms has declined by nearly a third and the ratio to
the total U.S. population almost twice as much. There
are now more th&n six persons in the nonagricultural
population for every one living on a farm as compar
ed with a two to one ratio in 1910. Despite the drop
in the number of farmers, however, agricultural pro
duction set new records over the last decade, thanks
to mechanization and better farming techniques.
The figures show a substantial decline in agricui
tural employment in recent years and a higher pro
portion of those living on farms earning their liveli
hood in nonagricultural industries as off-the-farm job
opportunities have increased. Of the farm working
population in April this year, only 5.000.000 were em
ployed in agriculture as compared with 6.6 million so
employed in iy&u.
e e e
VlHILE,THE decline in
T ing on farms between 1950 and 1954 has been
heavy in all age levels the young people have been
leading the parade to the cities.
There were 1.1 million fewer children and teen
agers on farms in April this year than in the 1950
month, but their 1954 proportion of the total farm
population was higher than in 1950. Similarly, the
proportion of those between 45 and 64, and the 65
and over group also moved up. On the other hand,
the number of those between 20 and 44 dropped by
1.4 million in the four year period,' and their pro
portion of the total farm population went down from
30 per cent to 28 per cent. E.C.F.

He's for Democratic Ticket .. .
To the Editor: You have no
doubt heard among the solid
Republicans the occasional re
mark "I would gladly vote for
a Democrat if they ever nomi
nated one of real merit. It has
never been clear if this was a
snide remark or a really sincere
statement If the latter is the case
NOW Is the time to prove it.
This election year no one can
really denv that the Democratic
candidates are of unusually high
caliber. Richard Neuberger for
Senator is already taking his
place among great liberals. -His
record at -the Oregon legislature
has shown him to be steadfastly
for fair play and possessing a
keen consideration for the un
derprivileged and the needs of
the masses of working peorjle.
Joseph K. Carson for governor
is a fine choice. Carson, old-timer
in Portland, is ex-Mayor of that
city. Successful lawyer, Carson
is a self-made man up from the
ranks. He became' a U. S. Marl
time Commissioner and achieved
national prominence. Joe Car
son has had many successful
years of administrative work of
a very high quality. There is no
blemish on his record. .
Charles O. Porteri candidate
for Congressman, has so many
commendable attributes" it is
herd to know which to mention.
He is a member of the American
Bar association, member of
board of directors Eugene Cham
ber of Commerce and a member
of a list of fine organizations
as long as your arm. This man
is also an Oregonian and a vet
eran.
These men are right for Ore
gon because they are right with
the Issues. Oregon needs electric
power badly. We need low cost
electric power to attract more
industry. The employment in the
lumber industry is year by year
falling off. Something; must take
its place. It must be new indus
try. -Yet each year we Oregonians
watch California and Washing
ton fall heir to the juicy plums
of industry.
The reason? Forty years of
political monopoly with over
seventy-five years without a
Democratic legislature. The rea
soh'for this? Money. The Repub
lican party will spend over 200
million dollars by November 2
in Oregon, This figure makes
the Democratic budget look tat-,
tered. , .
There are . more Democrats
registered in this county than
Republicans. Many of them cross
ed party lines last election. On
the . merits of the candidates,
Republicans should cross party
lines in droves.

Cordon Support Inconsistent
To the Editor: In the October
24th issue of the Mail Tribune
a letter was printed in this col
umn which was authored by
former State.Senator Ben Day
to advocate the reelection of
Senator Guy Cordon to the
United States Senate. I would
like to point out some of the
inconsistencies advanced by Mr.
Day. '
He praised the record of Cor
don by , giving him complete
credit for the appropriation of
monies for the construction of
our Northwest dams and power
lines. In the latter part of the
letter he condemned Richard
Neuberger for being the advo
cate of numerous spending meas
ures.
Mr. Day also gave Cordon
credit for appropriating the
money for the "Talent project."
The actual truth is that as yet
the Talent project is not an
accomplished fact for the money
has not been appropriated.
He further stated that Senator
Cordon prefers' private enter
prise and initiative as against
governmental undertaking and
control, Mr. Day made this state
ment in the second paragraph
after the one in which he had so
generously given Cordon credit
for being the prime mover in
the fight to obtain the money
that Insured the building of our
great dams and power lines. Are
not many of them, such as Bon
neville and Grand Coulee, under
Government control?
The statements made by Mr.
Day are inconsistent, but the
letter as a whole is very con
sistent with the program that Is
being followed by Cordon's sup
porters in their attempt to send
Guy Cordon back to the senate.
It is to be hoped that the people
of this state will be aware of the
fallacy of such a program when
they go to the polls on November
2nd. -

Reply "To Mr. Penman .
To the Editor: It was most in
teresting' reading Kenneth G.
Denman's article on the dog
measure that is to be voted on
at the coming election. -
He said "this measure was
placed on the ballot on the peti
tion of only 29 Medford voters.
Why is he complaining? The law
only requires 20 signatures. If he
doesn't like the law, he being an
attorney should make an effort
to have it changed.
For Mr. Denman's Informa
tion, prior to the time this peti
tion was presented to the county
clerk to have the measure placed
on the ballot a number of peti
tions were circulated and pre
sented to the city council bearing
300 signatures of Medford voters.
-Nine out of every ten ap
proached with these petitions
signed them with "various com
ments.-. Some said yes we wiu
sign the petition, though we have
a dog of our own yet we value
the good will of our neighbors
but we realize we cannot retain
that good will by continually al
lowing our dog to be a nuisance
to them." Others said "yes we
will gladly sign the petition for
we have little innocent children
two and three years old yet we
cannot let them play even in
our own yard because of the un
sanitary condition left by the
dogs prowling on it during the
night."
- Others said "yes we will sign
the petition for we feel that the
dogs have their place and that
is in their owner's yard and un
der his care."
We are still living under a de
mocracy yet some may feel as
one of our ex-state representa
tives expressed himself not too
long ago that the average person
doesn't have the inteUigence to
vote properly. The average per
son may not be too intelligent in
some people's opinion yet they
have made - this the greatest
country in all the world.
At the polls Is where the aver
age person can express his-likes
and dislikes. The plan of true
democracy demands that the ma
jority should rule. -

Condemns G.O.P. Propaganda '
To the Editor: Probably you
have -already encountered the
two propaganda sheets sent out
by the Jackson County Republi
can Clubs. If not, I feel they are
propaganda you should be famil
iar with.
My first reaction was a dis
trict feeling of nausea at the
recollection of the number of
years I've been a registered Re
publican. I've always known
politics could be a dirty business
but the depths to which this cam
paign of villification against
Neuberger has descended indi
cates a degree ' of panic that
would be amusing, if it were not
so disgusting.
Of course from a G.O.P. view
point, it was an irony of fate
that they should have chosen to
call attention to Neuberger's
sponsorship of this logging safe
ty measure the day following
that ghastly , accident at cascade
Gorge where a load of logs was
dumped squarely on the occu
pants of a passing car.
"Certainly this piece of cam
paign propaganda is going to

If there is a man left in Oregon
whose sense of values remains
sufficiently unimpaired so that
he is able to recognize that the
life and wellbeing of all his con

Democratic Election
Washington (US) Thirty-
nine out of 50 Washington, cor
respondents queried In a pre
election poll have predicted That
the Democrats will win control
of Congress next Tuesday.
AU but three think the Dem
ocrats will win a majority in
the House. All but 11 beUeve the
Democrats will win control of
the Senate also. '
The poU, conducted by News
week magazine, showed the av
erage of the 50 guesses was a
net Democratic gain of 25, seats
in the House. For the Senate,
the forecasts averaged out to a
net Democratic gain of three
scats. -
An NBC pre-election survey
released tonight also predicted
a Democratic victory in both
houses of Congress.
The survey predicted that the
Democrats will win the Senate
by eight seats and the House by
20 to 30.
"E.C.F." Editorial Upheld
To the Editor: In regard to H.
D.'s communication regarding
the farmer versus the hunter, we
wish to say that his letter Is very
typical of the class of hunter who
is causing farmers to close their
places to all hunters.
We realize that it is a free meal
they are mostly Interested in,
and they don't care how or
where they get It. It may consist
of anything from a few chickens
or turkeys to a fat calf, If they
think they can get away with it.
This letter la also typical of
the class of hunter who slips into
your place without permission in
that the writer didn't care to sign
his name.
We feel that the land owner is
entitled to select his guests as
much as any other person, and
'there are hunters who realize
they are a farmer's guest and act
accordingly while hunting on his
property.
We, like most farmers, have
friends in town to whom we are
glad to afford a litUe hunting,
but there are so many who seem
to feel the same as H. D. that
they will mooch right in on an
other hunting party. We are hav
ing to be more strict each year.
We have also been quite leni
ent' with trespassers, but, for
fear we might miss H. D we are
lowering the boom on all tres
passers from here on.
In closing, we wish to express
our appreciation to Mr. Ferguson
for his timely and fair editorial
regarding hunting and also to
say that we consider it regret
table that we still have people
with such attitudes as H. D. ex
presses attitudes that contrib
ute to such tragedies as the kill
ing of the twelve year old boy
and the slaying of the pet doe in
the Meadows district . .
We feel sure that the people
who lose the most from such ex
pressions are the decent hunters
whom one can have on his place
without having to aooloalze to
his neighbors for their miscon
duct.

By FRANK JENKINS
Secretary UuUes returns to
Washington from the grave and
critical series of - meetings in
Paris where a new Western Eu
rope alliance In which West Ger
many will be a uU partner was
hammered out on the anvil of
fate.
. President Elsenhower calls the
Paris agreements a great deal
more than a mere diplomatic vic
tory. He terms the action taken
in Paris " historic step toward
the unity so necessary for the
maintenance of the freedom of
Western Europe."
He emphasizes . his statement
by going to the Washington air
port to welcome Dulles home.
When the President of the United
States goes to the airport, or to
the railroad station, or to the
dock, to welcome somebody, it
is a very special honor.
His welcome is Intended to say
to the world at large that Presi
dent Eisenhower feels that what
was accomplished at Paris was
very, very significant Indeed.
WE MUST, of course, keep this
fact in mind:
The agreements at Paris that
created a new western alliance
in which West Germany will be
a full partner, . contributing
eventually an army of half a
million men, to the defense of
Western Europe against Com
munism, were signed only by
the representatives of the gov
ernments involved. They will not
become complete and binding
until they are ratified by the
parliaments of those countries t
and the French parliament,
which holds the key to success
or failure of the new alliance,
has been an unpredictable body.
Nor Is it Impossible that the
West German parliament might
refuse ratification of ,the agree
ments that have been signed by
West Germany's Chancellor Ade
nauer. But at least we can hope. Only
by uniting for their common de
fense can the nations of West
ern Europe hope to defend them
selves against the menace of Rus
sian Communism. .President
Eisenhower's distinguished wel
come to Secretary Dulles is prob
ably Intended to impress these
parliaments with the importance
attached by the United States to
the new alliance.
ARE THE Paris agreements as
important to our side as they
have been made to sound?
We have some interesting re
verse "english" on that point.
They are bitterely criticised by
the official Russian newspapers
that serve as the mouthpiece for
the Kremlin. -
That leads us to believe that
the Paris agreements are really
pretty good. ,s. . j , ,'.
