. End of Min ing A buses?
There is rseason to hope that this year, at long
last, Congress will do something about the laws which
have permitted abuses of the mining laws.
The situation is of particular interest in Jackson
county, for it was here that a number of mining claims
filed on high grade timber property have tied up the
orderly management of the timber and recreational
land involved. Most of these dubious claims have
been in the northeastern

was the possibility of some groups being unjustly
harmed.
But recent months have seen a development which
may solve the problem. There have been a number of
conferences held m attempts to iron out the differ
ences, and gradually they began to meet with sue
cess.
TTHIS agreement is reflected in the support which
is being given to a number of identical bills which
have been introduced into
oi members, one of them
Ellsworth of this district.
The measure has the endorsement of the Ameri
can Mining Congress as well as the American Forest
ry Association. Its sponsorship is widespread in both
houses of Congress, and to
to it has been voiced.
THE Denver Post, which
1 the problem, hails the
"The proposed legislation would ban the location of min
ing claims for common varieties of sand, stone, gravel, pum
ice, pumicite and cinders. It would limit the use of claims
to prospecting, mining, processing and related activities,
and protect the federal government's right to continued
management of timber and forage on them. It would bar the
removal or use of timber on such claims, except for actual
mining and related activities. And it would expedite the
resolution of title uncertainties resulting from abandoned,
invalid, dormant or unidentifiable mining claims located
before the passage of the new law."
TTHB Post adds that the provisions embodied in the
measure "have been accepted as timely, fair and
necessary by the departments of agriculture and in
terior, by thejureau of the budget, by conservation
ist groups, by the public lands committee of the min
ing congress and by the Eisenhower administration."
If the bill is all it is said to be (and such- unani
mous support could hardly have been engendered
by an inadequate proposal), it is to be hoped that it
will get swift passage.
It would certainly make Jife simpler and easier
for our own local forest administrators. E.A.
The Lowdown on Taxes
Anyone who is puzzled by the ins and outs of pro
perty taxation (as we often have been) would do well
to write to the state tax commission to ask for a little
pamphlet recently put out by that agency.
In simple words, it describes the processes by
which taxes are levied on property for local purposes,
and it gives as clear a picture of the entire procedure
as we have yet seen.
IT points out why taxes vary widely according to lo
1 cation. (There are two reasons: 1. Value of prop
erty varies according to location, and 2. Amounts of
taxes are different in different taxing districts).
It describes how appraisals are made to find the
market value, and how the value is then reduced to
"true cash value," and then to "assessed value."
It continues to show how budgets are made up,
and the amount of tax levies in each taxing district
are applied to the assessed valuation to get the rate
of taxation in mills.
THE booklet outlines the factthat most property-
owners know, that real property taxes have been
going up and up. And it adds that only you and your
neighbor can do anything about it. It proceeds to give
the information needed for intelligent consideration
of taxes and tax needs.
It won't answer all the questions you may have,
but it will do much to disperse an all-too-prevailing
ignorance of how taxes affect the pocketbook of any
one who owns property. E.A.

Matter of Fact
WILL IKE RUN?
Washington Whether Presi
dent Eisenhower will run again
in 1956 is sure to be debated end
lessly, until the
President him
self gives the
deciding word.
Pending that
time, this re
porter has at
tempted to put
the debate on a
slightly very
slightly more
scientific basis,
by making a
Stewart Alsop one-man poll.
In a long day on the telephone,
20 Senators and 20, newspaper
reporters were reached an ade
quate sampling, according to
polling theory. There seemed to
be more Republicans than Demo
crats with their noses to the
grindstone, so the final propor
tion among Senators was 12 Re-
publcans to eight Democrats. All
interviews were "not for attribu
tion," to promote candor. The
answers to the question "Will Ike
run?" broke down as follows:
Flat, confident no: Two Demo
crats, two newspapermen, no Re
publicans.
Hesitant no: One Democrat,
four newspapermen, still no Re
publcans.
Flat, confdent yes: Seven Re
publicans, four Democrats, eight
newspapermen.
Unupsettable fence-sitter: One
Republican.
Stern refusal to participate:
One newspaperman.
This works out to 72.5 per cent
"yes," 22.5 per cent "no," and 5
per cent no answer. The heavy
majorty view that the President
will run was perhaps not very
surprising. Yet the pulse-feeling
did develop some features worth
remarking.
Except for one cynical news
paperman who thought the Presi
dent s supposed reluctance was
an act, everybody assumed that
the President really did not want
to run. Why should more than
seven out of ten think he would
run, despite his own genuine in
clinations? TJART of the answer is found in
another very general belief.
Two Democratic Senators and a
couple of reporters thought that
the President might be beaten.
But almost everyone else agreed
in substance with a Democratic
Senator who has himself been
spoken of as a White House pos
sibility: "For the first time, just in the
past two or three weeks, I've
begun to think he might .not go.
But I still just can't see how he
can resist the pressure. Hell, any
body we put up, he'd knock his
head off, and if they put anyone
else up, we'd knock his head off.
So the Republicans just can't let
him go to Gettysburg."
Over and over again, in one
form or another, came the
phrase: "He can't resist the pres
sure." The Republicans naturally
tended to put the matter on a
high plane. "Ike's a soldier," said
one Republican who spoke for
.the rest, "and he's got a tremen
dous sense of duty. He knows he
owes it to the country and the
Party to run, and he's never
shirked a duty yet."
The reporters and the Demo
crats tended to be more cynical.
One literary Democrat compared
the President to the reluctant
lady in Byron's "Don Juan,"
who, "whispering 'I will ne'er
consent,' consented." A reporter,
no admirer of the President, had
this to say: "Ike's really a pliant
kind of guy, at least about poli
tics look at the '52 and '54 cam
paigns. They'll really hold his
feet to the fire this time, and
in the end he 11 go."
One of the two Democrats who
flatly predicted that the Presi
dent would not run had an odd
explanation: "Shucks, I like golf
too, and I'm up in '56. Suppose
I'd already made up my mind
not to run again, why, I'd be
out on the course half the time.
But I want it, and here I am up
here running myself ragged.
Ike's not running himself ragged,
not by a long shot."
If women's intuition is worth
anything, the majority is wrong.
Sen. Margaret Chase Smith has
publicly voiced her doubts about
the President's running, and one
reporter's wife who answered
the telephone agreed: "All the
women I know say no."
VET her husband, a brilliant
White House reporter, spoke

for the male majority: "Ike really
does love that farm, and he really
does hate Washington he says
so openly and Mamie really
does want him to retire. But what
can he possibly say when the men
he admires most tell him: 'Mr.
President, you've got to run, or
everything you've stood for is
lost." "
The results of this pulse-taking
were, obviously, even more
inconclusive than usual, since the
one person who could give a
really authoritative answer was
not available for questioning.
But the interviews did suggest
the amazing extent to which
President Eisenhower now domi
nates the American political
scene. "The man's a great politi
cal genius," one repotrer remark
ed. "He does what no1 politician
in American has been able -to
do he makes hardly any ene
mies, only friends. And the Re
publican party's not going to let
its one and only political genius
retire."

In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
As this is written, it is expect
ed that the long-awaited Aus
trian peace treaty will be signed
in Vienna.
When and IF the treaty is
signed the Austrians will be free
from military occupation for the
first time in 17 long years. Their
country was under Nazi occupa
tion for seven years, and since
Hitler's defeat it has been occu
pied by the Western allies and
Russia.
That period of military occu
pation has lasted for ten years.
AUSTRIA is described in the
dispatches today as ONE
GREAT BUNDLE OF JOY over
the prospect of regaining her in
dependence. Well, who wouldn't be?
Not only will the Austrians be
able again to run their own local
affairs. Among other things, they
are required by the treaty to
FORSWEAR WAR. They will be
allowed only military forces
enough to police their country,
and -they will not be permitted
to enter into offensive and de
fensive alliances.
The lucky dogs!
No wonder they're happy.
rpHE California legislature is
considering a law to permit
California counties to levy a one
cent sales tax. The tax would be
collected both in the cities and
the non-incorporated rural areas.
The bill, as so far amended,
leaves it up to the cities within
the counties as to whether they
want to turn over part of their
collections to the county or keep
all the money collected within
their borders for their own use.
Everybody, you see, is scraping
the bottom of the tax barrel.
YjUHY is the sales tax spreading
"so rapidly?
The answer to that one is easy.
The sales tax gets the most
feathers from the goose with the
least squawking.
rWHE rice industry is suffering
-"- from what in these modern
days is a common ailment. NOT
ENOUGH RICE IS BEING
EATEN IN THE UNITED
STATES.
Rice growers and rice proces
sors are being urged to take
steps to induce people to EAT
MORE RICE. The rice surplus,
the growers are told, is already
HUGE, and if people can't be in
duced to eat more rice it will get
even HUGER.
SO far, so good.
But
If everybody is talked into
eating rice, LESS WHEAT WILL
BE EATEN. And the wheat sur
plus is even bigger than the rice
surplus.
And
Since prices of both rice and
wheat are GUARANTEED TO
THE GROWER, it seems prob
able that too much rice and too
much wheat will continue to be
grown.
QUESTION:
Where will it all end?
rpHE stock market at noon Fri-
-day was HIGHER after two
days of sharp price declines.
Good?
Or bad?
Well, at least the two days of
declining prices caused people
to stop and remember that what
goes up CAN come down.
That's a healthy thought.
If everybody came to the con
clusion that stock prices are al
ways going to GO UP and are
never going to COME DOWN,
then everybody would quit work
ing and saving and would devote
all his efforts to getting rich
quick by speculating on the
stock market.
Something like that happened
just prior to 1929.
SCREWBALL though:
What if stock speculators
became so numerous that they
could go to congress (which al
ways pays attention to large
blocks of voters) and GET A
F L.O O R UNDER STOCK
PRICES?
Then all of us could speculate
happily on the stock market, se
cure in the knowledge that we
couldn't lose.

that the temperature at the

wolf packs seldom exceed 10
and then consist of one family
and close relatives; their howl

season; the father is perhaps the
kindest and best provider in the
mammalian kingdom and helps
train his young; and, no, there
is not one authenticated case of
a wolf killing a human in Can

4. The walrus's calf is the most
prolonged nursling, nursing un

Ho Chi Minh Enjoys
Big Day as Last of
French Leave Delta
By- CHARLES M. McCANN
United Press Foreign Analyst
This is a big day for the frail,
wispy-bearded Indochinese Com
munist leader who calls himself
Ho Chi Minh.
The last
French troops
are pulling out
of the Red Riv
er Delta under
the 1954 ge
neva treaty
which ended
the Indochi
nese war.
Ho, as presi
dent of the Red
"Democr a t i c
Charles McCann
Republic of Viet Nam," thus be
comes the undisputed ruler of
12,000,000 people and 77,000
square miles of territory in
Northeastern Indochina.
Now Ho has only to sit back
and wait to see whether South
ern Viet Nam, with its 10,500,
000 people and 50,000 square
miles of territory, is going to fall
into his hands like a ripe peach.
As of now, it would be a bold
man who would bet even money
that Southern Viet Nam, torn
by dissension and threatened
with open civil war, can be kept
for the free world.
Elections Scheduled
Elections are to be held next
year in both Northern and South
ern Viet Nam to determine the
future form of government of a
unified country.
About 800,000 persons includ
ing military personnel and civil
ians have fled Northern Viet
Nam since the Geneva treaty was
signed last July 21.
Undoubtedly many more
would like to go southward to
escape Red rule. . v
But there are disturbing re
ports that some of those who fled
to Southern Viet Nam would like
to go north again. They would
rather take their chance under
Communism than risk being
caught in a chaotic civil war;
In no other country in the
world would the West have any
reason to fear a free, properly
supervised election. But it can
hardly be said with certainty
that th Viet Namese will vote
against Ho unless the situation
in the south improves.
They call Ho shadowy. A year
ago, in fact, some doubt was ex
pressed that there was any such
person the speculation was that
he had died and the Reds were
just using his name as a front.
Attractive Personality
Ho is a tiny man, with a little
goatee. He is quiet and ascentic
and from the Western view
point has a dangerously attrac
tive personality.
But politically, Ho is a very
substantial personality. And he
has a long background of cruelty.

He was born on Jan. 15, 1892,
