ated to demonstrate that Chris
tian faith is inseparable from
matters of conseauence in daily
life that the understanding of
freedom and its development in
human affairs grows out of
Christian faith which emphas-
sizes the responsibilities as well
as the riehts of each person and
that freedom is always today's
vital concern and not merely a
past achievement.

Farm Land Values
!n Oregon, U. 5.
Hit Record High
Corvallis Values of farm
land ii Oregon and across the
nation are still rising, reports
Mrs. Elvera Horrell, extension
agricultural economist at Ore
gon State college.
Oregon land values have come
up more than a third since 1947
49, Mrs. Horrell said, and are
now at the highest point on re
cord. Value of farm land and
buildings in the state, cot count
ing livestock or farm machinery
and equipment, now totals close
to $2 billion.
Average Value
Average value per farm in the
state is in the neighborhood of
S33.000 about $10,000 higher
than the national average. On a
per acre basis, however, Oregon
farm tends rank 31st among the
48 states, having a value on
March 1 of $84 per acre com
pared to better than S94 per
acre as a national average.
Looking over reports for the
U. S. department of agriculture
Mrs. Horrell found that land
values in 34 states, including
Oregon, increased 2 or 3 per
cent during the four-month per
iod ending March 1. In general,
there has been a steady uptrend
in national farm real estate
values since 1954, Mrs. Horrell
said. The onlv exceptions have
been those states seriously af
fected by drought.
Values Supported
The strong farm land values
are supported by forces both in
and out of agriculture, Mrs. Hor
rell believes. Within agriculture
there is an expanding technology
based on a mechanized agricul
ture and to make the most ef
ficient use of their machinery.
farmers are reaching out for
more land.
Outside of agriculture, there
is a high level of business ac
tivity, a rising price level, and
need for space for the nation's
growing population.
Norblad Suggests
Postal Closures
Washington (IPI Repre
sentative Walter Norblad an
nounced today that he is recom
mending to the Post Office
department the closure or con
solidation of six small Oregon
post offices, based upon postal
inspectors reports.
"Prior to the advent of mod
em roads and transportation,"
he said, 'these offices were
probably a necessity, but they
are now simply an unnecessary
expense and the patrons can be
served just as well by a rural
station or by star routes.
Norblad said one of the ex
amples was the office at Mabel,
Ore., in Lane county, where
there are only six families to
serve through post office boxes,
and where the receipts are $280
per year and the cost to operate
the office annually is $2300.
He also cited the Granite,
Ore., post office as being "oper
ated in the summer time only"
and serving only seven patrons.
Other offices that Norblad
recommends be closed or con
solidated are those at Ada,
Hardman, Eastside and Wonder,
Ore.

Interior Oregon
Fire Danger Up
By UNITED PRESS
The humidity dropped below
30 per cent in western Oregon
today and the forest fire danger
signal went up as the state
braced for its hottest tempera
tures of the year.
The weather bureau said fire
danger would be moderate to
high in all interior areas of
Oregon through Saturday but
that the danger on the coast
would decrease.
Temperatures of 90 to 100 de
grees were expected today and
Saturday in southwestern inter
ior galleys and the Columbia
gorge. Medford was the hottest
spot in the state on the Fourth
of July with 99 degrees.
The weather man said it was
probable a slight break in the
hot spell would occur late Sat
urday with a push of cooler air
from the coast.
The five-day outlook called
for little or no rain for Oregon
except for a chance of thunder
showers early next week. Highs
are expected to range in the 80s
On The Side By e. v. During
(Distributed by King Features Syadicate, Inc.)
Balzac was the first novelist
to have a woman of 30 as a ro
mantic heroine. Before that all
the heroines were starry-eyed
teen-agers. Many persons of ex
perience believe the male attrac
tion of a woman is at its height
when she is 30 or thereabouts.
Right now it is the woman of 40
who seems to have the most
powerful male appeal. Of course
it must be considered that
any intelligent woman of 40 can
make herself appear 30 years
old or even younger. Anyway,
women of 40 are reported gen
erally winning over younger
women in the battle for male at
tention. Daughters are even re
ported losing their boy friends
to their divorcee or widow moth
ers. Our Horses and Women de
partment has been instructed to
completely check this interest
ing situation and report on same.
Get It Right
Darryl Zanuck, when a pro
duction executive at Warner
Brothers, fired Clark Gable. So,
I note it said. That is not the way
I heard it. Zanuck, then known
as "The Boy Wonder From Wa
hoo," wanted to hire Gable.
Jack Warner, head of the studio,
voted the suggestion, saying re
garding Gable, "His ears are too
big."
Among The Married
How about the connubial fel
icity at your house? Is your wife
being kind to you? What con
stitutes cruelty to a husband to
the extent of being grounds for
divorce and eliminating the nec
essity of paying alimony? In one
case a husband testified and pro
ved his wife had said she "hat
ed" him. Though admitting so
saying, the wife contended she
was still entitled to support. The
court ruled otherwise saying,
For a wife to state to a hus
band that she has ceased to love
him is the end of connubial fel
icity and neither law, justice
nor reason demand that the hus
band under such circumstances
shall be condemned to a condi
tion of penal servitude."

Borden was born in Norwich,
Conn. He invented condensed
milk in 1853 when he was 56
years old.
Dogs
Despite repeated claims to the
contrary a dog is better off in
the city than in the country.
The city ddg usually lives two
or three years longer than the
country dog. His life is also a
happier one. That is because he
meets more people. Dr. James
R. Kinney, internationally fam
ous dog expert, has said, The
dog loves cities because he loves
to be with people. The dog
doesn't care a thing about the
society of other dogs. Intimate
association with human beings
is what he wants, it's what he
has had for centuries and that's
what he gets in cities."
Greed

000 a day! Yet this establishment,
in common with other similar
Las Vegas joints, complains its
state and federal taxes are too
high. What greed! Gambling is
a luxury and should be taxed
accordingly.
Sidelights
The most "telltale spot as to
a woman's age are her elbows.
On this many experts on the
subject seem agreed. An or

all right financially. . .GaU Bor
