Peace and prosperity here in
he Northwest are closely linked
with peace and prosperity in Eu
rope. For instance, we once had a
good market for prunes in Ger
many. That market was lost
partly because the U.S. adopted
a policy which restricted Amer-

ican purchase of German prod
ucts. Germany could not earn
the dollars needed to pay rep
arations, let alone the dollars
needed to pay for Oregon prunes.
Now we have a good market
in Germany and western Europe
for mint oil. What would happen
if Russia took over? Would
Northwest growers be crowded
out of mint as they were crowd
ed out of prunes?
Western Europe
We look to western Europe as
a market for some of our pro
cessed fruits and vegetables. Fre
quently we send Oregon seeds
to these countries. Last winter
much of our barley was shipped
there to relieve shortages: this
winter Europe is taking wheat
because last summer's crops
were short.
In return, we in the Northwest
frequently ship in seed, plants
and animals from western Eu
ropean countries to help meet
our needs.
Many of us wear watches and
use cameras made in Europe.
Now we notice more and more
European cars on our roads.
Affects Northwest
Indirectly, the health of Eu
rope's economy affects Europe's
ability to buy goods manufac
tured in the United States. This,
in turn, affects jobs and job op
portunities in this country and
the domestic market for farm
and forest products produced in
the Northwest.
Europe's wars have cost the
American taxpayer money, too.
They brought price inflation and
cut the purchasing power of the
U.S. dollar by half. Past and po
tential wars are the big reason
for today's high federal taxes.
Twice in the last 50 years
peace in the United States has
been interrupted by troubles in
Europe. Each time many North
west men and women went to
wars that started over political,
economic and social difficulties
there. Some of them did not re
turn; others are disabled for life.

HIT-RUN HORSE AND WAGON
Newark. N. J. (U.R) Police
decided Monday a hit-and-run
driver without license plates did
not have to have them and
might not have been able to
stop. A man complained the
driver made off after running
into his parked car but said he
was unable to get his license
number because he was driving
horse and wagon.

'Ghost' Cat Silent
In Walls of Home
Glendora, Calif. (U.F) A cat
believed trapped in the Vincent
Carta home for more tiian three
weeks gave no further cries to
day and authorities speculated
that it may either have died or
escaped.
The cat cries had been going
on ever since Carta, his wife
and their two young children
moved into their new S20.000
home. But Monday, for the first
time, there was no sound from
the "ghost" feline. ,
Plumbers, carpenters, police,
firemen, technicians, veterinar
ians and humane society work
ers conducted futile searches to
locate the cat, believed trapped
in the walls of the house.
The Carta family was be
sieged by phone, mail and wire
from persons all over the na
tion who had offered suggestions
as to how to rescue the cat.
Holmes Notifies
Ragnor Johnson
Of Replacement
Salem (U.R) Gov. Robert D.
Holmes yesterday notified Real
Estate Commissioner Ragnor
Johnson that he was being re
placed after Johnson rejected
a request that he resign.
The governor said he was
sorry that Johnson, a Republi
can appointee of the late Paul
L. Patterson, had decided to take
this course.
Gov. Holmes said he was re
placing Johnson because he
wanted to make his own com
mission appointment and "be
cause the office is apparently
more interested in serving the
real estate profession than ,the
public."
Johnson Replies
The action followed an an
nouncement by Johnson that he
was refusing to resign and indi
cating that he would contest
any effort to remove him. His
resignation had been requested
by Gov. Holmes last week.
"It has troubled me as. well,
in the case of Mr. Johnson," the
governor said, "that since I ask
ed for his resignation this office
has been besieged by telegrams,
obviously prompted, in his be
half. Without exception this
'spontaneous' appeal has come
from the real estate profession."
Johnson countered by saying
'1 think the governor is more
interested in the power of poli
tics than he is in good govern
ment. The statement that he
makes that the real estate com
missioner is more interested in
the real estate people than the
public I wonder who he thinks
the real estate people are if
they are not the public?"
Governor Cites Law
Gov. Holmes said he was
sure he was right in his opinion
to remove Johnson even though
he was appointed for a four-
. year term which expires March
I 31. 1958.

"Any person holding an ap

offices, department or institu
tions of this state, shall hold
the same for an indefinite term,
not exceeding four years, and
shall at all times be subject
to removal by the appointive
power which made the appoint
ment. The appointive power may
in all cases appoint a successor."
The real estate commissioner
is appointed by the governor.
