Bob Sage spent part of his holiday vacation cultivating his two acre grove of Christ mas trees and discovered that the bunny rabbits had bitten off about half of the young firs. He can's figure out why, as they were not eaten, just bitten off. Bob said, he saw a big fat jack rabbit near his trees sometime ago and thought some of shooting him, but he looked so pretty and innocent, decided not to. We would hate to be in Bre'r rabbit's shoes if Bob should meet him now, and have his gun along.

ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Washington Correspondent Washington - Rep. Walter Norblad, Oregon's only Re publican in Congress, does not sr discount him self as a pos s i b 1 e candi date for high er office in one of the next two elec tions when he thinks the GOP will show renewed strength in the state. At the same time, Congress man Norblad looks to Gov. Mark Hatfield as the key man in the Republican party hopes for countering the widespread advances of the Democrats in Oregon in recent elections. "If anybody can (steer the Republicans to a . comeback), Mark's the guy who can do it," observed Norblad. Both of Oregon's Senate seats, now held by Democrats Richard L. Neuberger and Wayne Morse, will be up for grabs in the next two elec tions. Neuberger's term is up next year, Morse's in 1962. Like many others, Norblad is wondering whether Neu berger will run for reelection, for the senator himself has cast some doubt on the matter by his frequent references to his preference for living in Oregon and returning to the comparatively free and easy life of a free lance writer. May Run for Senate If Neuberger should bow out, Norblad might saddle up his long tethered senatorial ambitions and . make a run for it. If Neuberger seeks an other term; Norblad will un doubtedly stay put and run for another term as congress man from the First district, which stretches from Salem to Astoria and is still pre dominantly Republican in voter registration. Norblad is feeling no pain as a result of "his handsome victory over the challenge last November of Democratic At torney General Robert Y. Thornton. He notes that hjB defeated Thornton by some 18,000 votes, and yet the Re publicans in his district enjoy a margin of only about 10,000 over the Democrats, and that Thornton spent a good deal more money on advertising in behalf of his candidacy than did Norblad. Moreover, to reach the gen eral election, Norblad had to defeat Phil Hitchcock in last spring's primary. The out come wasn't even close. So, for the first time in his 12 year political career, Norblad has faced and walloped two major contenders, one from each party. Norblad doubts that Hat field will run for Neuberger's Senate seat next year,, only two years after being elected to a four-year gubernatorial term. But he allows as how Hatfield might go against Morse in 1962. He doesn't dis count himself in the event that Hatfield should run for another term as governor that year. Eyes Governor's Office If Hatfield runs for the Sen- ate in 1962, then the govern orship will be wide open once more. The congressman, whose father was once gov ernor, showed a desire to hold this high state office himself early in 1956 when he an nounced his intent to seek the GOP gubernatorial nomina tion. But when party leaders lined up behind Elmo Smith, Norblad withdrew and ran again for Congress. Smith then lost in the general elec tion to Robert D. Holmes, Democrat. As for the upcoming legis lative work in Washington, Norblad hopes to get some funds to develop the Ft. Clat sop park which was author ized by the last Congress. He also wants to get money to start construction of the Ya quina Bay navigation project and to start Green Peter dam on the south Santiam river, a federally authorized power and flood control project which the administration had wanted to develop as a "part nership" dam in conjunction with'Pacific Power and Light Co. Asked for his view of re ports the administration will not favor starting any new projects this year, to hold the line on spending, Norblad said, "I think, a complete policy of no new starts is not warranted. I think the complexion of this Congress is such that it will add funds to the budget to start new pro jects." By ELMER C. WALZER UPI Financial Editor New York - (UPD - The best way to win the economic war against the Soviet is to en- 0mmms Ust business which now is in the 4F sta tus, says Don ald K. David, c h a irman of the Commit t e e for Eco nomic D e vel opment. David is Eimer wauer convinced we are in an economic war to a finish with Russia and that the goal is to determine whether our system or Com munism is the superior one. He bases his conclusion on a quotation from remarks by Nikita Khrushchev. "We de clare war," said the Soviet leader. "We will win over the United States. The threat to the United States is not the ICBM, but in the field of peaceful production. We are relentless in this and will prove the superiority of our system." So far, says David, we haven't convinced the Free World of the superiority of our system. Recalls War Effort "What is needed," he says, "is a means-a mechanism-by which business can enlist in the economic war.

I I "Although the war is being fought in areas of their spe cial knowledge and experi ence, businessmen are in something of a 4F status. They pay taxes but are not directly involved in the fight ing. I think they should be at the front. I even believe that more of them should be offi cers."' He recalls how we created the "arsenal of democracy" two decades ago through mo bilizing our economic power for waging the more conven tional type of war. "We did it by government contract with private indus try equipped and able to do the jobs that needed to be done. "And when I think of the job that now most needs to be done in the underdeveloped countries, it seems to me that this technique is particularly appropriate." He holds we must export skills as well as capital since most of the underdeveloped countries lack both business enterprises and business man agers. A New Partnership Such operation," he notes, requires the building of a new partnership of business and government dedicated to pro m o t i n g economic develop ment abroad. "This partnership," David says, "could be effected by having responsible govern ment agencies contract with private companies and private management to plan, build, organize, operate, and train local people for operating business enterprises abroad . . The responsibility would extend all the way from as sessing the soundness of the projected enterprise to organ izing the company, securing its financing, building the plant, developing its market, and finally, recruiting and training local people to move in and carry the enterprise." Business would not have to invest its own funds but ar rangements could be made to let it acquire at least a minor ity interest in the enterprise. The U.S. government would have to develop the economic programs for the various na tions, select the American firms, negotiate contracts and set and maintain standards of performance. For its part the American firms would be given a rea sonable fee.
