A Need for Morals
Oregon's newspapers in recent weeks have carried
a number of stories about the high divorce rate in
Oregon, the number of broken homes, absconding
fathers who fail to support their children and so
on and so on.
There are many facets to this situation. There is
the enforcement problem, for failure to support a
family is a crime. There is the tax problem, for public
welfare funds must be used to support mothers and
children whose fathers fail in their responsibilities.
There is the human problem, for broken homes lead
to delinquency and crime and heartbreak.
DENEATH it all, it seems to us, there is a question
which is essentially one of moral values.
Our civilization still adheres, on the face of it at
least, to a system of morality which is an outgrowth of
the puritan era, reinforced by the Victorian age. But
in many ways, this moral code is neglected, or abused,
or ignored.
And if America is slowly, by default, abandoning
a code of morals to which it has held for most of its
existence, what is to take its place?
TTHE two great wars of the past 40 years and the
strain resulting from the threat of the atomic and
hydrogen bombs, undoubtedly have something to do
with this breakdown of the moral fabric of society.
These factors have one thing in common they
deny, by implication, the dignity of the individual.
Perhaps the individual, the little guy, the confus
ed, unhappy, bewildered joker who no longer is quite
sure what is right and what is wrong, can blame his
world for the mixed-up motives which lead him to
"run away from it all."
Perhaps this confusion, on top of the normal stres
ses and strains wrhich beset every family, no matter
how rational and well-balanced, causes him to crack.
DUT society still owes this little guy something.
Some rather interesting, though tentative, exper
iments along these lines have been popping up lately.
In Portland, the "Pacific Northwest Conference on
Family relations," was conducted recently. In
Albany, a "Marriage Council," composed of 16 clergy
men, lawyer, doctors and businessmen, has been or
ganized and is ready to advise those beset by marital
problems.
HTHEY may help. Other
more extensive, may do
ing marriages, or, better,
being contracted.
But until America can
values either those of
which may develop 'in response to society's need for
moral guideposts it seems to us we will have the
confused and bewildered, like the poor, always with
us. E.A.
Mental Hospital Delayed
A dispatch from Salem reveals that the Ways and
Means committee (which handles all appropriation
measures for the state legislature) has tabled a bill
calling for the expenditure of $3,000,000 for a start
on a new mental hospital in the Portland area.
IT wouldn't be strictly accurate to say that this action
A runs counter to the mandate of the people when,
last November, a vote of the people on the question
wras taken, the proposal was modified by a "wThen-the-money-is-available"
provision.
But it would be well to
the people approved the proposal. It was 397,625 to
128,685. That s more than
HE committee, in voting to table the proposal (thus
putting it on ice as far as this session is concerned,
unless members reverse themselves), pointed out that
the money simply is not available.
It s available, all right
payers, who are also the voters who approved the
hospital. Extracting it is the thing that's causing all
tne aniicuuy.
Vote Due on Emergency Clause
If you are a registered voter, you'll get a chance
to vote on an important constitutional amendment at
the general election in November, 1956.
Senate Joint Resolution 4 passed the last hurdle
in the Oregon legislature last week, and will go on
the ballot next year.
AT present, the legislature is prohibited from put
ting an "emergency clause" on tax legislation. This
means that any tax measure cannot go into effect
immediately. It also means that any group can sign
a referendum petition, and uphold the measure until
the following general election.
The proposed constitutional amendment would
permit the legislature to put the emergency clause on
tax legislation, putting it into effect immediately.
QPPONENTS of the measure say it deprives Ore-
gon voters of a chance to vote on tax legislation.
It doesn't. They can still vote on it, at the same
time as before. But in the meantime the law would
be in effect raising needed revenue .and showing
citizens whether or not they like it.
The present system allows a small minority (5 per
cent of those who voted for supreme court judge in
the previous election, or actually about 1 per cent of
the voters, accordiner to some estimates to hnlrl
legislation which the majority might well approve.
And they thus deprive the state of needed revenue
in the meantime.

Matter of Fact
WHO DID PROMOTE PERESS?
Washington There was
something strange ly ghostly
about the recent hearings, be
fore what used to be the Mc
Carthy Committee, on that earth
shaking question: "Who pro
moted Peress?
A visitor to the hearing sud
denly found himself transported
back in time to a year ago, to
endless, ramb
ling, often
boring but
strangely
f a s c i n ating
Army - Mo
Carthy hear
ings. The cast
of characters
was very
much the
came.
There was
Stewart Alsop
Sen. McClel
lan, and the handsome
Stuart
Symington, looking bored; and
Mundt, looking as much as ever
like a melting mushroom; and
Irwin, of South Carolina, every
inch the judge. And of course
there was McCarthy himself,
mangier and fatter than last
year, and somehow at the same
time visibly deflated. And there
were the familiar witnesses
Gen. Zwicker, and Army coun
sel John Adams, and Army Sec
retary Stevens.
rpHERE WERE moments of
- rather nostaligic drama,
especially when McCarthy asked
one of his brilliantly loaded
questions, in his ponderous,
threatening, oddly halting voice
Jtsut somehow the show never
really got off the ground. There
was even a sort of sadness about
it, as there is about most
dramatic failures perhaps
especially because this was so
surprisingly pale an imitation of
what had gone before, and every
body is a year older so surpris
ingly quickly.
And yet there were certain
lessons to be learned from these
hearings. Take the case of Army
counsel John Adams. A year ago,
the Adams face at least the
upper half of it, as it appeared
in the famous picture of him
leaning his nose on a chair
was one of the most famous in
the country. Yet at the Peress
hearings Adams looked even
more ghostly than the rest of
the cast almost disembodied
And with good reason.
rpHE PERESS hearing is the
-- Adams swan song. As of April
1, he will no longer be counsel
of the Army. It is not certain
whether he resigned or was
fired at any rate, it was made
clear to him that he was "too
controversial," and that his de
parture would be welcomed.
Adams will merit a footnote
in history. The detailed record
which he kept of the pressures
brought to bear on the Army by
McCarthy, Cohn & Company,
started McCarthy down the long
road he has travelled since. But
for present and practical pur
poses, Adams is "a poor player,
who struts and frets his hour
upon the stage, and then is heard
no more." The poor player is
worried. He has been in military
or government service since
1942, and in the circumstances it
is not easy to find a job. There
is no job on the horizon. Adams
is intelligent, and no doubt he
will land on his feet. Yet his fate
should serve as a warning to all
government servants under no
circumstances to show any
imagination or initiative, lest
they be labelled "controversial."
VIHAT WAS not interesting
' about the Peress hearings,
however, was that they were so
boring. The caucus room of the
Senate Office Building, full to
bursting a year ago, was two-
thirds empty, and the press
tables had yawning gaps.
One reason was that the hear
ings were a McCarthy show, and
the sullied demagogue is not
really interesting any more. A
year ago most of the Senate fear
ed McCarthy most of the
country too, it often seemed.
Now (thanks in part to the about-
to-be-unemployed Adams) Mc
Carthy is boring rather than
frightening.
But there was another reason
why the Peress hearings aroused
so little real excitement. The
hearings had to be held, as in
surance against McCarthy's
screams of "whitewash." Yet
long before the hearings started,
everybody concerned knew the
real answer to the question,
"Who promoted Peress?" The
answer lay, of course, in the
endless, tedious testimony about
how the "form 390" was not in
the "201 file" but in three other
places where it ought not to
have been and so on.
NO SINGLE individual, but
the army system imper
sonal, massive, ponderous, a law
unto itself caused the Peress
mess. Every army in the world
has its bureaucracy. But none
can even begin to compare with
the American army, in moun
tains of paper work, miles of red
tape, and rich profusion of type
writers and mimeograph ma
chines.
It might have been a lot more
useful to ask, indeed, why it
was necessary for as many as
60 high and medium officers and
officials to concern themselves
with the firing of a left-wing
dentist. The answer might re
veal a lot about why we must
recruit more than 60,000 men for
every division in the field, while
the Russians need only 22,000.
Meanwhile, it is at least re
assuring that the Peress hearings
By Stewart Alsop
were so tedious, in their ghost
like way. For the very boring
ness of the hearings suggests that
the country has recovered a lot
oi its sanity in the last year.

In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
In this space Sunday I was dis
cussing fabulous Las Vegas. I
think I'd like to continue the
discussion today. When you
come to think of it, Las Vegas is
something new in the American
scene.
TT HAD its beginnings in the
A characteristic American way
in a boom. The boom arose
out of the building of the first
big Western dam.
They named it Hoover dam,
after a great American engineer
President. There came then the
New Deal, one of whose objec
tives was to smear Hoover. So
they changed the name and call
ed it Boulder dam. Came, after
many years, a Republican con
gress, and the name was chang
ed back to Hoover dam.
I think we're all glad by this
time that the name was changed
back to Hoover, who through
the years when his name was
made a political by-word and a
hissing conducted himself as a
patriotic American and in doing
so won the respect of everybody.
It is quite fitting, I think, that
this great engineering achieve
ment should bear the name of a
chief executive who is one of
the world's great engineers.
TUT let's get back to Las Vegas
- and its beginnings. The build
ing of Hoover dam brought a
tremendous boom. At the dam
site, the Nevada side of the Colo
rado was more accessible than
the Arizona side.
Besides, American booms are
raucous affairs and Nevada's
somewhat unusual legal climate
lent itself nicely to the things
that grow up around boom sites
where money flows freely. Gam
bling, for example.
rpHE boom lasted a long time
for huge dams in mighty riv
ers aren't built in a day. But, in
the course of time, it began to
fade. Meanwhile, quite a com
munity had grown up at Las
Vegas and nobody wanted to
see it go back to the status of a
desert ghost town, such as Tono
pah and Goldfield and Rhyolite
and so many others.
Meanwhile, also, Las Vegas
had become a somewhat bawdy
rival of older and more digni
fied Reno. Instead of wilting
with the passing of the construc
tion boom it continued to thrive
as an entertainment spot. It was
about that time that the Vogue
of the Desert began to get its
start in a big way. Las Vegas had
plenty of desert, and it capital
lzed this asset shrewdly. As the
free and easy spending construc
tion workers dwindled, their
place was taken by free and
easy spending tourists who came
seeking thrills.
And, as sports clothes began
to predominate on the streets
over the less glamorous garb of
the construction workers, a new
era was born in Las Vegas. Fab
ulous caravanseries were built
to house the thrill-seeking new
comers. Whereas, a simple show
er-head at the end of a water
pipe had sufficed for the con
struction stiffs when they need
ed a bath, the newcomers clam
ored for swimming pools around
which they could display them
selves in fancy clothes in the
desert sun.
AND, whereas the hard -rock
in on nnH the r.ement hoes
and the rest of the dam builders
had been content in the way of
entertainment with burleycue of
the ruggeder sort, these new
arrivals wanted something more
high toned.
"CIURTHERMORE, it was dis-
covered that alter tnese
dudes had watched a top-flight
floor show at the dinner hour
they were inclined to stay up the
rest of the night bucking the
tiger in the casinos.
That completed the metamor
phosis of Las Vegas from a con
struction camp honky-tonk to a
cornbination of high class Amer
ican night spot which outbids
Broadway and Hollywood for
entertainment talent and the
tvDe of European gambling casi
nos that line the Italian and
French shores of the Mediter
ranean.
FROM there on out, Las Vegas
had it made. For years it has
heen building luxury hotels for
the big shots and fancy motels
for the rest oi us at a dizzy rare,
hut it mn't keen uo with the de
mand. It's still building them
just as fast as ever and no mat
ter how fast it builds the crowds
keep coming faster.

T-iVia T.a Vegas as an eco
nomic contradiction a spot to
tally lacking in what the econo
mists term NATURAL RE
SOURCES that goes on booming
endlessly while thumbing its
nose at economic laws.
But I'm running out of space.
I'll have to put that off until
tomorrow.

Did you know that ... some

Some birds can change their
eating habits drastically during
the year. Adult partridges, for
example, eat a good number of
insects that's meat when
the young are born and before;
during the summer they subsist
largely on grains barley is
their favorite; and in winter
they are virtually vegetarians,
living almost wholly on the tips
of weeds and grasses.
Some crabs have "breaking
joints" where injured legs and
claws are normally snapped off
to prevent bleeding to death.
Then new ones are grown.
The barracuda, a fearsome
fish, herds its prey. The herded
fish may number 150 or more
and consist of gray snappers,
yellow tails, parrot fish, grunts,
angel fish and cockeyed pilots.
The rate of a rattlesnake's
rattle depends upon the animal's
temperature. At 100 degrees
Fahrenheit it will rattle six
times as fast as when just above
freezing.
Most snails are both male and
female hence, the correct
gender is "it."
The beak, skull, feet and all
other bones of a 25-pound peli
can weigh only 23 ounces.

Big Four Talks Seen
Moving Closer' China
Showdown Said Closer
By CHARLES M. McCANN
United Press Correspondent
Things seem moving toward
Big Four talks of some kind on
European problems and toward
iKiyWSa a showdown
b e t w e en the
United States
and Red China
on Formosa.
The question
is whether the
talks or the
showdown will
be first.
There would
hardly be much
use of holding
chanes Mctann any Big Four
negotiations if the Chinese Com
munists forced a far eastern cri
sis by attacking the Matsu or
Quemoy islands.
But if the United States, Great
Britain and France could ar
range what President Eisenhow
er called "exploratory talks"
with Soviet Russia, the Kremlin
might ask the Chinese Reds not
to risk a war with the United
States.
Rising Pressure
In allied countries in Europe,
pressure is growing for talks
with Russia. Talks on easing
tension, high level talks on dis
armament, any kind of talks that
would give hope of removing the
H bomb threat.
It might seem that Russia
would welcome a far eastern
crisis, on the theory that Com
munists always welcome any
thing that causes a free country
trouble.
But the Kremlin has problems
of its own. Its food situation is
becoming increasingly serious.
Some experts believe it could
reach the crisis stage next win
ter. The shuffle in the Soviet
government which started with
the ousting of Georgi M. Malen
kov as Premier continues. The
position of Foreign Minister Vya
cheslav M. Molotov may be
shaky.
Now the Kremlin is faced
with the prospect of imminent
West German armament.
Finally, it must be remem
bered that Russia is closely al
lied by treaty with Comumnist
China.
What would happen if, in the
event "of an armed clash between
the Red Chinese and the United
States, the Reds called on So
viet Russia for military aid?

secret conferences. But he added
that, "There is nothing ... to be
gained by going back 10 years
and showing that, in the light of
after-events, that someone may
have been wrong, or someone
may have been right. People that
are so sure that we could do
this, forget one thing: You can
never recapture the atmosphere
of war."
Angry Statement
McCarthy lashed out at the
President in an angrily-worded
statement which said in part:
"Yes, someone may have been
wrong someone was wrong,
he said. "Wrong enough to sell
into Communist slavery 600,000,-
000 people; wrong enough to
have brought about the Korean
War which cost so many Amer
ican lives; wrong enough to set
the stage for World War III
where so many lives will be lost.
"But Eisenhower says, oh,
let's not talk about that. Don't
expose them because the repu
tations of those who were wrong
might be damaged."

mittee to coordinate university
research on the problem. In
cluded on the committee, Lever
ing said, was famed nuclear sci
entist Edward Teller, who play
ed a major part in developing
the hydrogen bomb.
Seeks Appropriation
Levering said he had been
asked by Sproul to seek from
the state an appropriation "sub
stantially less than $1,000,000"
to help finance the sea water
conversion study.
Other members of the commit
tee are Prof. Everett D. Howe, of
the university's engineering de
partment, chairman; L. M. L.
Ooelter, dean of engineering at
UCLA; F. A. Brooks, professor
of agricultural engineering at
Davis; M. R. Huberty, chairman
of irrigation at UCLA; and C. D.
Wheelock.
"
It looks as if the next few
weeks might be- decisive.
I Final ratification of the Ger
man armament treaties is in
sight. Then negotiations could be
started for a Big Four confer
ence, a conference of Foreign
Ministers which would be fol
lowed, if things went well, by a
conference of heads of state.
There will be a chance for a
foreign ministers' meeting if
Molotov attends the special as
sembly to be held in San Fran
cisco in June to mark the 10th
anniversary of the United Na
tions. It all seems to be up to the
Red Chinese leaders in Peiping.
There was ominous word in
Washington Saturday that the
Reds might attack Matsu in mid
April. If that happened, the United
States government would not
have much time to spare to
think about a European confer
ence. All maples yield sweet sap,
but only two are significant to
syrup producers the sugar
maple and the black maple. In
New England and neighboring
Canada conditions are especial
ly favorable 'for the collection of
sap. Chief factor is the combin
ation of freezing nights and
thawing days that encourages
the sap's spring flow.

when they see that only the
cross is at the center?" Mere
church membership does not
count with God. Only heart ac
ceptance of Jesus Christ as Lord
and Saviour counts. Good works
are out, so far as our being sav
ed has to do. God writes eternal
life on our page, only when we
accept Jesus Christ as dying for
our sins. Accept Christ as your
own Lord and Saviour. Then
being saved, stay by the Bible
and prayer and grow up. This
