In 1959 Oregon will celebrate the 100th anniver sary of itsadmission as the 33rd of the United States. It has been proposed that a centennial celebration be staged. There is also sentiment favoring the plan that it be made into a big, "World's Fair" type of event. .-,.. AN extensive study is now under way to determine what would be a logical method of approach, what the potentialities' are, how much it would cost, how it could be financed, and all the other questions which must be answered before a project of this magnitude can be undertaken. Various sections of the state have been asked to put up limited funds to underwrite this survey. The Jackson County Chamber of Commerce has been ask ed to give $500 for the purpose; The Stanford Re search Institute, nationally-known for its detailed and sound analyses of problems, of this nature, has been selected to do the survey in two phases. ! The first phase would merely to be to determine whether it would be practical to hold a World's Fair, or whether the centennial observance should be more local than national or international, according to Charles Bollinger, secretary of the Governor's Cen tennial Committee. ' If it is found that there are no conflicts, and that indications for a larger show are favorable, then the second phase of the survey would 'be made to go into ajl the other, details involved in such a big undertaking. AT a luncheon meeting detail. He said that the centennial committee had con cluded that the state's income from the tourist bus iness, conservatively estimated, at $125,000,000 an nually, could be doubled by a World s Fair. In addi tionhe said, there would be millions of dollars worth of publicity, a period of growth and prosperity re sulting from world attention to Oregon, and a lasting .park site where the fair was held. ' - "All this may not cost a dollar," Bollinger was quoted as saying, because backers who purchased revenue bonds to, finance the World's Fairs 'in San Francisco and Chicago either got all of their money back or made a prof it. '""THE people of Oregon would expect a fair they f can be proud of, a 'story' which will sell Oregon, a cost which would be proportionate to the gains re alized, and some permanent cultural and recreation al benefit to the state," Bollinger was quoted as say ing in the Grants Pass Courier. ' ; j He added that tentative plans for the fair are be ing .made for a two-year event, because both the Chi cago and San Francisco events were "in the red" after one year, but showed an overall profit at the end of the second year. . - - - . ' AS a result of the Grants $500 to help finance the survey. No further contribu tions for this purpose are to be asked, and additional financing would come from revenue bonds, .which Portland bankers have said difficulty. 1 , . Since the tourist trade source of income in both Josephine and .Jackson counties, it appears to many southern Oregon busin essmen that a $500 contribution would be a small in vestment in a project which million-dollar business tourists represent. E. A. The Bar's Service One of the little-known services which the people of Oregon get "for free" is also one which is of ex treme importance. . ,' ; :j We refer to the legislative assistance off ice which the Oregon State Bar maintains at Salem during the session of the state legislature. Here senators and representatives can obtain competent legal advice on legislative matters, and even have bills drawn up. .. . . . . , . '" THE attorney general's office, with its relatively . small staff, each two years finds itself overwhelm ed ! with the bill-drafting task alone, and requests for advice from legislators do not, perhaps, get the response they should. -; ; The following editorial, from the current issue of the Oregon State Bar Bulletin, tells the story . . With the opening of the 1955 legislative assembly at Salem on January 10, members of the Oregon State Bar . will again offer to the legislators competent legal service , ,. through the maintenance of an office in the capitol build- t ing which will be staffed by lawyers from all parts of the : state who have volunteered their services. -; , f - : - : - With only 17 lawyers as members of the legislature this year, the, bar recognizes that committees and. individual ,. legislators will need lgal assistance. The bar seeks to make this assistance available and invites : all members of the 1955 session to avail themselves of it. ; - The bar is motivated primarily , by a recognition of its duty to the public, but, also, the lawyers recognize that J competent legal assistance to individual legislators and com mittees will result in better laws. j The legislative assistance office will not recommend or suggest legislation. Those on duty will seek to interpret the desires of the legislators through the drafting of bills and V through the analysis from a legal point of view of legisla . tion submitted to them for that purpose. THIS service is of inestimable value in keeping Ore " '." gon's new laws "on the beam" legally speaking. And it must be a real relief to legislators to know that they can get competent assistance in putting down on paper, in correct fashion, their ideas for legislation. ; - r. 7- .

' ' ' represents the third-largest could double the multi Matter of Fact NEHRU'S ROLE Bangkok, Thailand The s big gest single if in the future of South Asia is the future devel opment of Indian policy, which of course large ly means the future develop ment of the personal views of Pandit Jaw aharlal Nehru. India's moral a u t h o rity in Asia may seem to many West erners it has often seemed Joseph Alsop to this particular Westerner to be largely based on pretentious talk and a capacity for rousing false hopes. 'But here in South Asia, this Indian moral author ity is none the less a. very real thing. Whether you like it or not, it is a hard, practical politi cal fact that cannot be ignored. It could have been ignored, to be sure, if the American, British and French governments had not chosen to taiake a Munich in Indochina. But the Munich was made, and the results are now so serious that the decay quite probably cannot be halted with out Indian moral authority to reinforce western military pow er and American economic power. If 'Nehru cannot be induced to join the party by a side door, American and free world inter ests will still demand the very greatest efforts to block world communism's relentless march into South Asia. But those ef forts will have a far greater chance of eventual success if Nehru helps instead of hinders. In this connection, moreover, there have been some pretty im portant straws in the wind in the last couple of montns. iirst, Nehru visited the two crucial border states, Cambodia and T.ans. nn whose fate the fate of Thailand also depends. Then, at his meeting with Ho Chi Minn, the Indian leader gave his cele brated warning, that it was all very well for the Viet Minn to take the Chinese-oriented Viet namese regions of Indochina, but that India would stake it very ill indeed if a grab were also made for Laos and Cambodia, with their basically Indian cul ture. THEREAFTER, as though to underline his warning to Ho Chi Minn that the Cultural di vide of South Asia must also be the political divide, Nehru con sented to appoint an jnaian min ister to Cambodia, the firmest and easiest to salvage of the two states immediately ' : threatened by the Viet Minh. And finally, on his way to the Bogor confer ence in Indonesia, he paused here in Bangkok for a social vis it which had special significance because of his past tendency to draw aside the hem of his robe from Thailand's somewhat game government. What Nehru has done so far, tn he sure, rather recalls the story of the English 19th cen tury Lady Jersey, who drove milps to church one Sunday and found there was no service. She ordered the" footman to shove Her railing card under the church door; told the coachman to take the road home, and turn ed away with the remark to her young, "Well, children at least we've done the civil thing." In view of his past, pronounce ments about SEATO for in stance, it will be hard for Nehru tn do more than he has done to save South Asia. But it will also be hafd for him not to do more, in view oi me pressure ui cvcuia. His representatives in Cambodia are warning him that the peril there is very great. His ambas sador in Thailand has- frankly told him that the fall of Cam- hodia will brine on the gau of Thailand. And perhaps most im- rjortant'of alL his old friend and neighbor, Burmese Premier U Nu has bluntly warned enru that the fall of Thailand will di rectly imperil Burma's , inde pendence. 'Nehru may of course choose not to believe all these warn ings. But the danger to India of a yast Communist upheaval in South Asia is certainly more im mediate than the danger to the United States. Thus there is also 9 : ohanee that Nehru may be persuaded to do something more realistic to forestall this danger before it is too late. V' - THE KINEF of thing that might be done is for the SEATO powers to give Cambodia a hard military guarantee; for America to provide Cambodia with the necessary military a.id econom ic aid: and for India, quite inde pendently, to provide the train ing mission that is needed by the Cambodian army. This kind of naraUel effort would bring the full weight of India's moral authority to bear, not only in the rest of South Asia, but also in Peiping and Hanoi. Mao Tse tung and Ho ' Chi Minh would then have to think a very long time indeed before grabbing for Cambodia. And time is vital if the Communist advance is to-be halted. '. Probably, however, it is just pipe dreaming to think of this kind of arrangement, for two different sets of reasons. On the one hand, the, American govern ment has recently been allowing itself, the luxury of pouting, in 1 I By Joseph Alsop our relations with India which is a luxury no great power can afford or ought to desire. ' And on the other hand, if Nehru's Asian policy has shown one kind of self-delusion, our own has shown another kind. We have made a Munich and hoped to avoid the conse quences. In the person of the unfortunate Gen. Lawton Col lins, we have sent a general to do the job of an army. And we have not as yet even begun to tackle the grand, immediate urgent task, of forming at least Cambodia and Thailand, and if possible Cambodia, Thailand and Laos, into a unity that may stUl hold after southern Indo china's all but inevitable fall. .

What we got would be a GIFT...' " x TJUT Oregon isn't resourceless and poverty-stricken. In eco nomic welfare, it is well up in the upper brackets. It pays fed eral taxes on a, scale comparable with that of other prosperous, comfortable states. So ' ;'' You see The people of Oregon would merely be paying that $10,000, 000 ouf of the pocket in which they . keep their federal tax money instead of but of the pocket in which they keep their state tax money. - . T ET'S keep this fundamental fact in mind: Before government can give anybody anything it must first take what it gives OUT OF SOMEBODY'S POCKET. In this case, the federal gov ernment (kindly old Uncle Sam) would be giving the people of Oregon $10,000,000 with" which to build additional schools, but the $10,000,000 would have to be taken out of the pockets of the people in the form of federal taxes. The people of Oregon pay federal taxes along with every body else. T TNFORTUNATELY, over ' the '-' past couple of decades, our people have come to look upon money provided by the federal government as manna- from heaven. . " ' - It isn't. It's just money taken out of the pockets of the people .by the process of federal taxation.

McCANN United Press Foreign Analysis A shadowy little organization called the Caribbean Legion has hx-i '- Ant factor in the revolt in Costa Rica. I It numbers only a few men and it has taken no part, as an organi zation, in the fighting. , '.But as long! "as President Jose Figueres permits h i s cuanes iauj name to ue as sociated with the legion, Costa Rica is pretty sure to remain a trouble spot in Central America. The Caribbean Legion has for its leaders half a dozen political exiles from the "strong man" countries of the Caribbean area. -Figueres personally is a wide ly respected man. He is a liberal and hofa leftist. Detests Dictatorial Rule But he detests dictotorial rule. Hence he has given haven " to political refugees from several "strong man" countries. Every time Generalissimo Ra fael Trujillo of the Dominican Republic, Gen. Fulgencio Batista of Cuba, Col. Marcos Perez Jiminez of Venezuela or Gen. Anastasio Somoza of Nicaragua thinks of a revolt in his own Editorial Comment AN OREGON WORLD'S FAIR "A, world's fair is. a natural if it can be done." - That's . the conclusion of the Capital - JournaL Salem, " after evaluating the recent meeting of the governor's Oregdn Centen nial committee. .:. -; .v "A century of progress would make it sb," the Capital Journal continues. "But we have much more. All indications are that the Pacific Northwest, with its vast water power and other re sources, is. to play a great role in the electric-atomic age, now dawning. The entire country ought to come out and look us over. A, great fair . would bring 'em by millions." The Capital Journal, having thus assayed the tremendous possibilities of a world's fair in 1959, isn't kidding its readers. After asking how the state can stage such a fair, it says: "It's obviously a colossal task that would take much of the time of hundreds of the state's . leading citizens, already "-jusy men and women, for the next four years, and millions of dollars." The editorial then goes on to state that Portland men already have a good idea as to how the fi nancing (estimated at least $10,- 000,000) can be done by a ndn profit corporation. The Capital Journal ' quite properly isn't too interested ' in making money on such a fair, "Oregon still benefits from the Lewis and Clark fair of 1905," the Salem editor says. "It would not only gain new money but new citizens and new capi tal investments." This, is the kind of open-mind ed, appraisal that justifies a thoroughgoing investigation .by the Stanford Research institute. It is the same kind of appraisal that has actuated the governor's Oregon Centennial committee to go ahead with this study, re gardless of tentative plans for a world's fair at Houston in 1959 or 1960. "Whether 1959 is to be the biggest year in Oregon's history or just a year. with some local pioneer celebrations" is the con cluding question posed by. the Capital Journel. "Have we got what it takes to do this tremen dous job?" We think we have, if the Stan ford Research institute's study indicates the fair is feasible, c Oregon JournaL Portland Treasury Building I Gets Exterior Bath ' Washington (U.R) The Treasury building, one of Wash ington's oldest government structures, is having its grime- blackened exterior scrubbed and washed for the first time in its history.

Legion Formed in Cuba , The legion was formed orig inally in. Cuba. It tried to or ganize an invasion of the Domin ican Republic from Cuban soil in 1949. It has since tried to or ganize an invasion of Cuba to overthrow Batista. It played a part in the Costa Rican revolt in which Figueres was a leader. It has been blamed with master minding the assassination of a Guatemalan leader who was an obstacle in the path to the presi- ' dency of Jacobo G since deposed. Somoza blames ii iur an attempt to assassinate him last spring. The changing political picture has forced the movement of the legion from Cuba to Guatemala, from Guatemala to Costa Rica. It has now dwindled to a few hundred men at most, nnssihlv not more than 100. But the remnants of the Leg ion are in Costa Rica. So long as it remains there, and so long as Figueres is willing to give shelter to enemies of the Carib bean "strong men," so long will the strong men look on Costa Rica as a threat. SAVE MONEY!
