in Portland will be a good one, of which no Ore
gonian need be ashamed. And we are glad that
this is so. ' 1
BUT it occurs to us that the important part of
the Centennial doesn't center in Portland at
all; that the most significant contribution that
this 100th birthday celebration can make is
throughout the state in the form of festivals and
activities in which the people of the state as a
whole can participate.
' The 4-H wagon trek which left; Jacksonville
Monday for Corvallis is a good example. AH the
details may not be historically accurate; condi
tions undoubtedly are far different from those
of a century ago and the event is more of a lark
than it is of a serious undertaking.
But, perhaps, therein lies its charm and its
attraction.
HY should history
of thins:? Why can't it be made to come
alive, through active participation? The answer
is that it should, and it can. Even the Centennial
beards which had such a vogue a few months
ago, and which still can be seen around, are ex
amples of personal participation, and identifica
tion with Oregon's brthday party.
If the Centennial does nothing but get Ore
gonians more familiar with their own state, its
history and its attractions, it will have accom
plished much.
But it bids fair to do far more than that.
It could, indeed, be the beginning of a renaissance
for Oregon the like of which has not been seen
before, although there were hints of such growth
and progress following Oregon's statehood in
1859, and again after the exposition in 1915.

defined in the desk.Webster as ". . . Any period

There are signs that the Centennial is, in
deed, sparkling this type of thing. The number
of art shows, for instance, is far larger, with a
broader scope, this year, than in any year we can
remember.
The lively debate over the Portland airport
mural, and the murals at the show in Portland,
are onlv svmntoms of an awakeniner interest in
cultural affairs the affairs which stimulate

DR. ADENAUER'S
DIFFICULTIES
Although in the past 60 days
Dr. Adenauer has reversed
himself about the Presidency
and the Chan
cellorship, his
convic t i o n s
and his pur
pose have
been quite
consi stent.
Above .all
other things,
above, for ex
ample, the re
unification of
Walter
Lippmann
the two Germanys, he is de
termined to assure the con
tinuity of a close collabora
tion between West Germany
and France.
This" -is the core of his
European policy. Its instru
mentalities are the Common
Market, the coal and steel and
atomic communities, and in a
considerable degree NATO it
self. The binding force for
the time being is .personal
affinity between Dr. Ade
nauer and Gen. de Gaulle.
The problem which he has
been wresuing with this
spying is how he himself can
most effectively defend and
promote this Franco-German
policy.
.
ON APRIL 7, he had let him
self be persuaded by his
nartv leaders to cive ud be
ing Chancellor and to run for
President. He believed then
that this was the, best way to
insure his Dolicv beyond the
hazards of the elections of
1981. For at least two years
to come, he would be Presi
dent and the Chancellor
would be his appointee and
his subordinate. The Chancel
lor would be Herr Etzel, who
is an experienced and deeply
convinced believer in the Ad
enauer policy. During these
two vears. Dr. Adenauer
would enhance the power of
the German President, pre
sumably as Gen. de Gaulle
has enhanced the power of
the French President. Then,
if the elections of 1961 went
against the Adenauer party,
he would still be President
with much power and great
influepce to check any radi
cal revision of his policy.
These calculations have mis
carried because the bulk of
the party leaders refused to
accept Herr Etzel as Chancel
lor. The nartv insisted that
the Chancellor be Dr. Erhard,
whom they "consider their
very best vote-getter. This
destroyed the assumptions on
which Dr. Adenauer had
made his decision to give up
the Chancellorship and to
run for President.
: -
17IOR TWO big reasons Dr.
Adenauer couian t accept
Dr. Erhard. one is that Dr. Er
hard is not an enthusiast for the
idea of a Little Europe of six
nations revolving around col
laboration between Paris and
Bonn. He is in fact a German
version of a 19th Century
commercialist liberal who ex
pects an ever-increasing pros
perity to come out of ever
wider and freer markets. He
believes in wider markets not
only in the Little Europe, not
only in the bigger Europe
which includes Great Britain
and the Scandinavian coun
tries, but also in all of Europe
which would mean more
trade with Eastern Europe,
with Russia, and beyond.
Although Dr. Erhard has
conformed and has been loyal,
he is not a true believer in
the Adenauer European pol
icy. At the same time he is
not a yes-man, and he is in
fact a strong man in his own
right. With him as Chancellor,
Dr. Adenauer would be un
able to enhance greatly the
powers of the President. So
he has felt compelled to re
verse the decision of April 7,
and to declare his intention
of remaining, if he can, Chan-

elections of 1961.
THIS IS not, to be sure, the

is the only one that makes
sense and fits all the known
facts. Moreover, it is the view
generally held by those who
have a close knowledge of the
problems of the Common
Market and of Franco-German
collaboration.
In his television speech Dr.
Adenauer explained' the re
versal of his decision by say
ing that since April 7 the
international situation has de
teriorated, and that therefore
he must stay at his post. This
is certainly true of his own
European policy in that his
calculations about the future
have foundered on the rocks
of German internal politics.
The kind of collaboration
which now exists between
Gen. de Gaulle and Dr. Ad
enauer is not assured for a
long future, in that in neither
Germany or France is there
successor in sight who can
Be counted upon to carry on.
A PART FROM this, can it
"be said that the interna
tional situation has deterior
ated? Has anything happened
since April 7 which was not
clearly foreseen then? .
It was evident then that
there could not be an agree
ment to reunite the two Ger
manys, that the Soviet. Union
would not permit, and that
not m Bonn, Paris, or Lon
don, was there any serious
and ardent wish to bring
about reunification. On April
7 it was evident also that
nothing could be done to re
unite the two Berlins.
It was evident, too, that if
the future of West Berlin as
a member of tne Western
community was to be assured,
it would not be sufficient to
stand pat on things as they
are. For the position of West
Berlin is very vulnerable to
all manner of pressure and
harassment and to uncertain
ty and anxiety. Against these
pressures there is in fact no
military defense. Therefore,
the future of West Berlin
must be assured, if we are to
honor our commitments, by
the statesmen.
rpHEY MUST build upon the
old foundation wnich is
that West Berlin belongs to
the Western community and
that the Western powers have
a right to be present there
with troops. Upon this old
foundation they must build a
new structure, of which the
essential elements are that it
has the explicit approval of
the Big Four and of the two
Germanys and of the inter
national society.
This may take some time
to achieve.. But as long as it
is a practical possibility, it
cannot be said that the inter
national situation in Europe
has deteriorated badly,

In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
In California. Gove rnor
Brown loses his battle to levy
two per cent severance tax
on oil and natural gas, taken
from the ground, with an
:qual levy on IMPORTS. The
reason for the aqual lew on
imports is obvious. Otherwise
over-the-borders gas and oil
products would have been giv
en a market advantage in Cal
ifornia, , which is now an oil
and gas importing area.
It is obvious that with the
import tax added the lew
would have amounted mere
ly to a selective sales tax on
gas and oil. Its result would
have been to make eas and
oil products more costly in
California than elsewhere.
flNE could lecture on that
"point at considerable
length. Gas and oil are basic
raw materials. Through the
processes of chemistry, they
are sources of a wide range
of commercial products. They
are basic sources of power. To
the extent that a tax on pow
er increases operating costs
of industry, such a tax would
tend to limit industrial ex
pansion in the state levying
it. That, in turn, would tend
to limit employment.
The same is true of a tax
levied oh basic raw materials.
So- i
It could be argued- i
The result of the proposed
severance tax on gas and oil
would have been to lower the
profits of industrial concerns
in California, thus handicap
ping their expansion and caus
ing them either to cut down
their production or to go to
more costly automatic proc
esses in an effort to meet the
price. .
That would tend to RE
DUCE JOBS and job oppor
tunity in California and to
build up other states not sub
ject to such added costs. Thus
California development would
be handicapped.
rpHAT, however, is not the
-- purpose of this piece,
which seeks merely to point
out FACTS. One of the facts
of life is that NOBODY can
permanently dodge taxes. No
body can permanently shove
his share of the tax burden
off onto somebody else be
cause taxes are a part of the
cost of doing business and so
have to be added to prices.
Since we all have to BUY
THINGS, we all in the long
run pay our share, according
to our means, of the tax bur
den. rpHE'hard truth is that the
-- only way in which taxes
can be reduced is to reduce
the COST OF GOVERNMENT
-in other words, to spend less
for government. What we
need to do, above all else, is
to reduce the WASTE in gov
ernment spending.
Government is inherently
wasteful.
Let's put it this way:
You and I would be waste
ful also if when we ran out
of money all we had to do was
to reach into the people's poc
kets and take out what we
needed.
AND-
-t- We shouldn't be too
rough on our representatives
in the state legislatures and
the congress. They think that
in spending recklessly they
are doing just what we want
them to do. They have reason
to think that-the reason be
ing that for decades the spend
ers have tended to be elected
and the economizers have
tended to be defeated in elec
tions. As long as that goes on, gov
ernment spending will tend to
be reckless.

share, France has refused to
permit stockpiling of U.S. nu
clear weapons on French soil.
Without the weapons, there
is little use in basing there
the planes which would have
to carry such weapons against
a potential enemy.
U. S. Fears Leak
U. S. refusal to share such
secrets grew out of her allies'
demonstrated inability to keep
them from filtering to the So
viets. France, with the second
largest Communist party in
Europe outside the Soviet
Union, was counted among
the greatest risks.
But such practicalities
never have counted with De
Gaulle.
To him, France even in the
midst of World War n defeat
merely was passing through a
phase which could not . dim
the lustre of her world great
ness. He once said: "There is a
twenty-century-old pact be
tween the greatness of France
and the liberty of the world."

Liberals' Choice
By LYLE C. WILSON

nomination.
The fellow
who seems to

Lyie c. Wilson now is Sen.
John F. Kennedy (D-Mass.).
Bits and splinters of news
come along from time to time
which suggest that some of
the Democratic left wing is
maneuvering to 'blackjack
Kennedy.
There is, for example, Mrs.
Eleanor Roosevelt's sustained
effort to proclaim Kennedy
unfit for presidential respon
sibilities. There is the ques
tioning but interesting splint
er of news from Detroit that
in Walter P. Reuther's big
United Automobile Workers
Union (UAW) there is devel
oping a warmth for the presi
dential candidacy of Sen. Hu
bert H. Humphrey (D-Minn.).
Hints From Detorit
It may not be wholly by
chance that Humphrey seems
also to be Mrs. Roosevelt's
favorite-of-the-moment for the
Democratic presidential nomi
nation. And, perhaps, it is not
by mere coincidence either
that there are hints from De
troit that Kennedy finds some
favor there for next years'
presidential nomination.
Mrs. Roosevelt has indicat
ed her willingness to see Ken
nedy nominated for vice pres
ident although she firmly op
poses him for the top spot.
On Humphrey, some time ago
she agreed he was coming
close to the spark of greatness
which she deems an essential
presidential qualification.
Some elements of a stop
Kennedy movement seem to
be imbedded in this leftist
friendliness toward Humph
rey's presidential hopes and
acceptance of the idea that
Kennedy would grace the
Democratic ticket in second
passed from those days when
the late Josef Stalin described
him as a man "not compli
cated." Or when an exasperated
President Roosevelt described
him as an upstart playing
Joan of Arc,-and Churchill is
said to have replied:
"Yes, but my bloody bishops
won'.t let me burn him."
De Gaulle for France
First, last and always De
Gaulle is for France. He will
lift the French by their boot
straps whether they like it or
not, politically or economical
ly.' He will force the world to
recognize France whether the
world likes it or not.
So, ; as in World War II
when he played the part of
thorn in the flesh to Roosevelt
and Churchill, Tuesday he
seeks to leap-frog years of
French political anarchy and
ineptitude and to force by
whatever means French entry
into the so-far exclusive club
of nations owning the atomic
bomb.
The extent of his single
mindedness is revealed bv the
He must have known you
won't believe this. That's why
he says let your wife do it.
Women are especially sen
sible in matters relating to
tipping, fair but not foolish,"
he says. It must be true, too,
because I've heard many a
cab driver say the same thing,
sort of.
Frome, being an old man,
naturally starts out with the
presumption you will be go
ing by car. He says it will
help to get it fixed first, be
cause the local mechanics are
cheap compared with those
you will find in somebody
else's home town.
Once under way, figure $30
per thousand miles for the
gas and oil. From there on,
you can write your own bud
get. It appears there are three
courses to follow, ranging
from expensive to uncomfort
able.
Camping Easier
Taking them in reverse or
der, there is camping. Frome
says 22 million people did it
last year. Camping he says, is
not what it was in the good
old days, and thank goodness
for that, anyway. ., , .
The difference is in the fine
new camp sites, with conven
iences ' like showers, some
times with hot water, going
up in state and national parks
all over, the country; also in
place. If the movement is
vital and soundly based, it
will be coming out in the
open soon, probably in ex
pressions of political opinion
from such elements as Ameri
cans for Democratic Action
(ADA).
Humphrey is ADA national
vice chairman. His political
aspirations were given a boost
this year when ADA picked
the senator as keynote speak
er at its 12th annual con
vention. Kennedy describes
himself as a liberal Democrat.
Humphrey seems to stand con
siderably to the left of that.
He won his high place with
the left wing of the Demo
cratic party in 1948.
Strong Civil Rights Stand
The Democratic national
convention in that year was
reluctantly moving toward ac
ceptance of Harry S. Truman
as its presidential candidate.
The party platform writers
offered a civil rights plank
designed to ease the political
tension then developing be
tween Northern and Southern
Democrats. Humphrey barged
his way to the rostrum at that
point.
Humphrey's speech was a
sizzler. It drove the conven

it be known that he is deeply
at odds with his allies, on a
vital question of Western de

Fleet Withdrawn
The same determination
that France shall be a world
power shaping her own des

nouncement last March that
De Gaulle was withdrawing
the obligation of the French
Mediterranean Fleet to serve
under NATO command in
wartime.
And the same conditions ap

After, recovering from this
initial investment, four camp
ers can hope to get by on $100
a week. But don't try it just
to have money. If you like to
rough it on a foam rubber

motel route is for you:
if so, figure S10 to $12 a
