Don't Be Silly "As I understand it, the legislators are elected and paid by the people who pass laws in the interest of the people of the State of Oregon. However, it seems the majority of the legislators have forgotten their oath of office, and are scheming to thwart the wishes of their electors. It seems to me that they think, instead of being servants of the peo ple, they are or should be dictators of the people . . ." m THE above is an excerpt from a letter which ap- peared in another Oregon paper last week. Per haps the kindest thing which can be said of its author is that he is vastly uninformed. He is entitled to his opinion, and to express it. But in our view he doesn't know what he is talking about. 1X7E recently had an opportunity to watch the 48th session of the Oregon Legislature in action, as it has been our opportunity to do during all or part of the last six sessions. Once again the chief impression, out of a mass of impressions, was that of a group of 90 mostly sincere, mostly-honest, mostly-hard working men and women doing their darndest to provide Oregon with an efficient, economical and effective government. Sometimes they fail. Occasionally they fail b'ad ly. But the list of their mistakes is of little conse quence when compared to the vast body of good, sound, basic legislation which they have accomplished over the years. The fact that Oregon's government has been relatively clean and effective in comparison to that of other states is proof of this. ; THE legislature is the best possible exhibit of the processes of representative democracy. There is the widest divergence of opinion among the members, and it is freely expressed. There is confusion, pressure, friendship, enmity, excitement, fatigue, stimulation, conflict, cooperation. Somehow, out of this psychic maelstrom emerges a program. Miraculously, it is usually a pretty good program, sound and well-thought-out. This is the eternal miracle of representative democracy. And despite the obvious drawbacks, it is the near est thing yet to perfection in the art . (not science) of government. TF the author of the letter quoted above thinks there is a deep, dark plot to "put something over" on the people of Oregon in this apparently that's just what he thinks) he simply doesn't know the facts. The state is faced with in many years, perhaps in This crisis has been discused in these columns before. The legislators have no seeking solutions to an apparently insoluble problem. Whatever they do, they will CO, why do men seek election to the legislature? For money? No f or the $600. per year salary will barely cover their expenses. For prestige? Perhaps, tinction of being a member not a great and enduring For power? No for the individual power of a For what, then? Could by a sincere desire to serve be attracted by the pulling and committee work, . by the know" on decisions affecting the welfare of the state? THERE is a lack of direction and unity in the pres- for no matter what solution they come up with to solve the problem of taxes and finances, their de cisions are subject to reversal by the voters. Their labors may go for nothing, and the state may suffer seriously as a result. We would not be too surprised to see a special election or. a special session, or both, within the year, unless the legislators come up with something now unforeseen. This unhappy state is not productive of good, open-minded and clearly thought out legislation. . CYMPTOMS of this were the recent hush-hush meet ings held by the governor and legislative leaders in attempts to coordinate and unify their thinking. While we are severely critical of attempts at secrecy in the conduct of public business, we can understand their desire to get these differences and difficulties thrashed out in private. But if the problem is to be solved, it will be solved only with the understanding and approbation of the public. Secret meetings are not the way to achieve it. WOULD-BE dictators? No. Far from it. 7 " Confused but conscientious men, trying their level best to save the state from bankruptcy? Yes. They have our sympathetic understanding, if not always approval. And whatever they come up with as a solution, be advised that their decision was made in honesty and sincerity.

' " " s Matter of Fact GOING, GOING Taipeh, Formosa Another important offshore island is go ing. After having been refused American help to defend Nan chishan, the Chinese Nationalist government has decided to abandon Nanchi to the Commu nists. This is a drastic change of plan. Evacuation of the civilian population of Nanchi shan began soon after the re treat from the Tachens. But the island's military garri son was sup posed to de fend the place to the death. In -fact, this i n t e n tion is Joseph Alsoft still being publicly insisted upon. And while the decision to take off the garrison has already been made, there are public announce ments of reinforcement. For the American policymak ers, the abandonment of this pretty little islet 60 miles or more south of the Tachens will be an event of high significance. On the one hand, it vastly in creases the likelihood of . an early Communist attack on the off shore islands which have been given an on-again'-off-again guar antee by the Eisenhower admin istration. Unless the wisest' Chi nese and Americans here are unanimously mistaken, the Presi dent's willingness to assist the defense of Quemoy and the Matsus should soon be put to an acid test. On the other hand, precisely because an early attack on Que moy or the Matsus is now much more probable, the time avail able for negotiating a cease fire in the Formosa Strait is probably much reduced. . In high Chinese quarters here, it is believed that in Bangkok, Secretary of State John Foster Dulles is promising Foreign "Sec retary Anthony Eden full Amer ican backing, if Britain can trade the rest of the offshore islands for a reasonably guaranteed cease fire. But as both the Chi nese Communists and the Chinese Nationalists have bitterly de nounced the whole idea of such a trade, a good deal of time is surely needed for the trading. "C1ROM the Chinese standpoint, meanwhile,, the evacuation of Nanchishan will be a bitter pill, made all the more unpalatable by the claims that the place would be held at all costs. The pill has been swallowed for two quite different reasons. . First and foremost, the Gen eralissimo and his colleagues are very far from 'averse to bringing nearer the moment for the final test of the Eisenhower Adminis tration's real intentions regard ing Quemoy and the Matsus. Al though the Chinese profess con fidence in public, they are ven omous in private about the un certainty of American policy. And they are not at all averse to cutting down the. available time for cease fire negotiations. The - position on Nanchishan has now become militarily unten able without American aid. Our help in defending Nanchi was urgently requested and not for the first time during the evacuation of the Tachens. Our refusal of aid and the subse quent rapid Communist envelop ing movements then sealed Nan chi's fate. The enemy's enveloping move ments have virtually encircled Nanchi by this time. To the south, halfway between Nan chishan andor Matsus, the Com munists have put troops on the Taishan Islands. And Pekishan and the other . little islands of Nanchis own group, which lie just north of Nanchi, have also been occupied by. the enemy. For some time now, Nanchi has been garrisoned by a regi ment of Chinese regular troops, but the defense of the place was always held to depend on the Tachens. Hence powerful de fense positions have not been built. A hard fight for Nanchi might still have been attempted, how ever, if it were not for the local air balance. . In theory, an air battle for Nanchi was feasible, since it is just about equidistant from the Nationalist airbases on Formosa and the Communist bases on the mainland. But in practice, the National ists have only one fully operat ing wing of obsolescent F-84 jet fighters, plus another wing of Sabrejets which has now been sent into combat ahead of its training schedule. Their other planes are World War II types. In other words, the Nationalists do not have enough jet fighters to want to take on the much more numerous MIG 15s of the enemy; . VlflTHOUT, a simultaneous at " tempt to control the air, any attempt to control the air, any attempt to reinforce and supply Nanchishan massively by sea would be a suicidal operation, especially for the rather weak Nationalist navy. With the Com munists quite obviously prepar ing another triphibious operation like that which won them Yik iangshan, there were only two choices. The Generalissimo either had to sacrifice the Nachi garrison for. the sake of showing fight or order them to abandon Nanchi His' original intention to do the farmer may perhaps have been shaken by American" advice to By Joseph Alsop the contrary. But the desire to bring this crisis of the offshore islands to a climax, and so to forestall any effective cease fire bargaining, quite certainly en tered in, too.- -. - , The abandonment of Nanchis han would always be a develop ment of considerable local im port, in and of itself. Fukien, the mainland province across the Formosa Strait, from which any attack on Quemoy, the Matsus or Formosa proper must be launched, is a geographical trap. Few decent roads across the mountains that girdle Fukien. Any major military effort there pretty well has to be supplied by sea. The evacuation of the Tachens unblocked the route for coastal traffic for many miles south of the big bulge of the Yangtse delta. The evacuation of Nan chishan will open the mouth of Wenchow harbor and will un lock another long stretch for coastal traffic, right down to the neighborhood of the Matsus. In the present circumstances, moreover, the abandonment of Nanchishan has to be viewed against a background which gives it more than local import. As previously reported by this correspondent, there was one big missing piece, until recently, in the pattern of Communist ag gressive preparations. Korea-' hardened divisions and MIG 15s and other air strength had been massed in the Chekiang-Kiangsu region, threatening the Tachens. But no added strength had been redeployed into Fukien, to in crease the threat to Quemoy and the Matsus. This missing "piece in the pat tern is now being supplied. A Fukien airbase which the Chi nese Nationalist Air Force had regarded as not usable by jet planes, has . already been occu pied by "a regiment of MIG 15s. Air reconnaissance also shows rapid installation" of electronic equipment at this airfield. In telligence which is incomplete ly confirmed but regarded as highly probably further indicates that at least two Korea-hardened divisions have now moved into Fukien. ' TN short, the only objective rea - sons for optimism are in pro cess of being removed. And at the same time, the removal of Nanchishan as a threat on the enemy's flank ' automatically makes an attack on the Matsus the most likely next order of business. To be sure, both Americans and Chinese would rate an at tack on Quemoy andor the Matsus as much less likely, if the Administration were not pursu ing the tactics blandly described in Washington as "keeping them guessing." : ' If there were a firm American guarantee of the offshore islands, opinion here would be about evenly divided as to the odds for or against an attack.... Since American nolicv is un clear, however; the best opinion here is that the Communists will at least probe our1 intentions as to the "guaranteed" islands, per haps drawing back after the first attack if the United States re sponds strongly and decisively, HIT 1 " XI i iviayDe me d e s i opinion is wrong. Maybe the Communists will draw back now. Maybe a cease fire will somehow be wangled at the last moment. But one thing is certain. The time of climax is now appreciably nearer.

McCANN United Press Foreign Analyst The new Turkish-Iraq defense treaty has created a new situ ation in the Middle East.. : Turkey has regained the Middle East ern leadership which it lost as the result of World War I. Egypt, which had made a strong bid to ,take the lead ership, has suf- . fered a humiliating.-'- defeat Charles McCann in its attempt to block the Turk ish-Iraqi pact. . The eight-nation Arab League in which Egypt was the leader, has been seriously and perhaps fatally weakened by Iraq's ac tion in aligning itself with Turr key and thus with the Western powers. ; Advices from Cairo now re port that Egyptian Premier Gam al Abdel Nasser may join Indian Prime . Minister Jawaharlal Ne hru as a "neutralist." NATO in 1951 Turkey had laid the basis for its cooperation with the Western Allies when it joined the North Atlantic Treaty Organization in 1951. Last April, Turkey signed a mutual defense treaty with Pat? istan'. It extended the Western defense chain from Arctic Nor way to the Himalaya Mountains, Iran was the one missing link. Then, on August 9, Turkey signed a 20-year aUiance with Greece and Yugoslavia. Greece is a fellow member of the NATO organization. Yugoslavia is not, but Marshal Tito, its Communist president, is aligned with 1 the west against Soviet aggression. Now Turkey turned its atten tion to the other Moslem nations of the Middle East none of them aligned with the Western grand alliance, Marine Commander Of Manpower.Cuts Washington (U.R) Gen Lemuel .

The $20-a- head tax cut was offered an an amendment to a bill to keep the corporation income tax &t 52 per cent instead of letting' it drop back this spring to 47 percent which will happen unless the present law is extended. : So - Ike can't vote the S20-a-head cut without at the same time per mitting the tax . on corporation income to droprom 52 per cent to 47 per cent which, in view of the fact that we're already taking in would be disastrous. T suppose you read Ike's charac- terization of it as "an example of fiscal irresponsibility." It certainly is. But it's SMART. Anybody can see that. THE best comment on this slick trick comes from . Senator Byrd of Virginia, who is a Demo crat from away back, but a Democrat who believes that our country must be kept solvent. . He says .succintly: I '.. "I'm against it.
