Beautiful Morning Glory
The ancient Greeks had a
the morning glory the scien
tific nam "Ipomoea"; which
translated, means "worm
like." Being like a worm in
Its actions is not the least of
the peculiar habits of this
climbing plant which has
ever 500 relatives, all grouped
under the descriptive name,
'blind-weeds.
This vine will "crawl" over
anything that will stand still
It is one of the most agile of
the plants; its various and
numerous relatives just about
cover the entire scope of the
unusual. Its next of kin, the
moonflower whose ghostly
white flowers open only at
night, or on cloudy days, is in
many ways directly in contra-
morning glory which, as its
name implies, opens only in
the dewey morning. It also
claims kinship to the sweet-potato,
its most prosaic relative.
Little People
The morning glory is one of
the common herd; one of the
"litle people" and so ordinary
that most of us treat it with

little respect. Every morning
glory follows the well beaten
path of countless generations
of ancestors. If anything could
truthfully be considered in a
rut, or perpetual groove, it
would seem to be this simple,
blue flower that greets every
new day with a cherry smile.
We accept the beauty and
the commonness of the morn
ing glory, seldom appreciating
its simple, blue face. It grows
everywhere; there is even one
variety that grows happily on
a sandy beach, within a few
feet of the open sea. Other
varieties will labor to cover
piles of rubbish, ashes or even
tin cans that some untidy
human has dumped beside the
road.
It grows in forests, lacing
the trees together with twin
ing fingers. Even the culti
vated kinds seem constantly
to be looking for a chance to
escape; to "run a way" and
clamber up in a tree like a
monkey; or sneak under a
wall, or sidewalk to blossom
on the other side.
Blossoms Color ...
The blossoms may be pur
ple, blue or white; some may
even be striped, but seldom
a red flower is produced. The

Curry Justice "
Of Peace Resigns
Gold Beach (UPD - Curry
county justice of the peace
William E. Fuller has re
signed. His resignation was re
ceived by County Judge Guy
Forsyth, who said it will be
forwarded to Gov. .Mark Hat
field.
Fuller disappeared for sev
eral days earlier this month
and was found in an isolated
cabin near here.
An audit of Fuller's ac
counts showed a deficit of
more than $5,000, but a check
was received to cover the
amount, and no charges were
filed against him.
morning glory has a tuberous
root; heart - shaped, dark
green leaves. It is visited by
the larvae of a small moth
that often skeletonizes the
leaves. Bees cross - fertilize
the flowers.
In the fall of the year, or at
the end of the growing season,
the morning glory vine, like
a little old grandmother, gath
ers all her numerous "chil
dren" about her and surrend
ers to them the trust and con
fidence that another genera
tion will surely follow. .
It was toward this ultimate
end that all the climbing,
crawling and blossoming was
intended.

Oregonians Have Own
On Achieving Balanced

Washington (Special) - Ore
gon's four members of the
House
Representatives,
t r a ditionally
the more con
servative wing of Con-
gress on fis-
cal mat t e r s,
all seem to
agree that, if
i they were
president, they
would try to
a. Kobe smith balance the
federal budget. But they dif
fer in their emphasis on the
importance of this and related
federal fiscal considerations.
They range from the view
of Republican Rep. Walter
Norblad: "I feel very strong
ly that we should have a fed
eral balanced budget this
year and I feel that we should
have had it every year except
during a time.like World War
II or the Korean war."
To the view of Rep. Al Ull
man, a Democrat from Baker:
"Do I want to balance the
budget? Of course I do, and
so does everyone else. But
budget balancing is not an
end in itself. There are times
of economic or military cris
is." It is far more important
to meet the emergency than
to balance the budget."
Rep. Charles O. Porter, Eu
gene Democrat, said flatly:
"I would seek to balance the
budget," and he followed up
with ideas on how to achieve
it. Rep. Edith- Green, Portland
Democrat, indicated she fa
vored cutting President Eisen
hower's proposed budget of
"extravagance" in farm sub
sidies, military funds and pos
tal subsidies for magazines,
and noted that Congress this
session has already cut nearly
$600 million below the presi
dent's budget request: "This
is, I believe a record on which
the Democratic Congress can
stand proudly."
Congresswoman Green said
"a truly balanced budget" is
"a program of federal expen
diture and revenue which will
take into account the needs as

Eskimos Turning To Use
Of Refrigerators, Other
Conveniences
Toronto (UPD - Eskimo igloos
with electric lights, radios
and even refrigerators are
giving the Canadian Arctic
a new look.
It's part of a program by
the North Rankin Nickel
Mines to adapt Eskimo labor
to mechanical jobs at the com
pany's operations at Rankin
Inlet in the Northwest Terri
tory.
According to The Northern
Miner, a Canadian mining
publication, ,the experiment
has been highly successful
with the Eskimos doing well
at the jobs given them.
Some Oddities
But the contact with civili
zation has prompted some od
dities in mining camp life, as
told by the newspaper:
"North Rankin officials
(have), built 19 three - room
housing units which are be
ing sold to Eskimo employees
at cost (but) not all Eskimos
are interested in living in
white man's type of housing
and there is still a sizeable
number of both company em
ployees and other Eskimos at
Rankin Inlet who prefer to
live rent-free in igloos in the
winter and .in skintents in
the summer.
"Inside igloos, The North
ern Miner found the oddest
assortment of purchases made
by the 'nouveau riche' of the
North. With no bills for elec
trical power, freely supplied
by the mine, electric lighting
is commonplace even in some
nearby . igloos. -A large num
ber of Eskimos own radios
and delight in any kind of
noise which the squeaking
boxes produce; other keep
screeching record player in
constant operation.
"Although there is not yet
too much competition among
refrigerator salesmen in the
Arctic, two Eskimo' mine em
ployes have actually purch
ased them. In the case of
head - Eskimo Sheeniktook,
the mine manager suspects
that the purchase was made
only to show that if the white
man can have a cold box, the
Eskimo can have one, too.
"Other Eskimos have im
ported washing machines,
large electric clocks, and most

well as the resources of the
nation." She said in these
terms, the Eisenhower budg
ets "have constantly been un
balanced." By cutting the
items she cited, she would
spend or invest more in edu
cation, health research and
other social programs.
Would Eliminate Aid
Porter said he would reduce
the expenditures by eliminat
ing all military assistance to
Latin America and other un
derdeveloped countries not
close to Communist - held
territory, and try to eliminate
the farm subsidy programs
immediately. He said he
would, in turn, add funds for
new resource development
projects having a high benefit-to-cost
ratio.
Norblad said he would make
some cuts and add some funds
but he didn't specify in what
fields. Ullman said he would
expand "education, medical
research, housing, water pol
lution control, resource de
velopment and help for the
aged, and have money left
over if we use wisdom in
those expenditures and if we
act in time to stop the budget
r,aid by special interests, in
cluding the money lenders,"
The big cost item Ullman
would cut, he explained,
would be interest on the na
tional debt - estimated to be
$8.6 billion this year. He said
this shoujd be done by reduc
ing interest rates on federal
securities.
Includes Debt Payment
As for the size of the na
tional debt, Porter said he
would include " at least one
per cent payment on the na
tional debt" in each year's
budget - thus whittling the
years. Norblad said he favor
ed cutting the debt because
"this interest is a very size
able sum." Mrs. Green joined
Ullman in critizing the high
interest ratets which have in
creased "the size of the fed
eral budget significantly." .
Speaking of private as well
as public debt (roughly total
ing $900 billion now) Ullman
declared: "The economy is
paying $8 to $10 billion more
this year for the use of money
than it would have paid un-

TT,: r.).ln,u
"Although most local needs
are supplied by the Hudson
Bay trading post, with nearest
competition nearly a thous
and miles away, Eskimo min
ers are quickly learning . to
use mail order catalogues and
make their purchases through
the mine office directly from
southern deparment stores.' ,
"While the Eskimos are
anxious to learri everything
they can from the white man,
they refuse to imitate his eat
ing habits: They despise ham
and beef, but supplement
their cariboo meat and fish
diet with canned vegetables.
They delight in carbonated
drinks and have exhausted
in four months a year's sup
ply of pop stocked by the
Hudson Bay post."

were killed and five others
injured Monday' night when
two cars collided on Highway

of the Morgan car, his 5-year-old
daughter, Cathy; Peggy

each with a population, of
more than 100,000. There are

capital of India, Madras and
Hyderabad.
Ideas

viously in 1952. This is part
of the inflation created by
this administration through
its money policies."
As for whether they would
increase taxes to cover in
creased expenditures or in
dulging in deficit financing,
they differed. Porter said he
would favor higher taxes in
good times, nut not in times
of slump, adding: "I do favor
additional taxes being im
posed now." He noted he
backs legislation to reimpose
an excess profits tax, a re
duction in the oil depletion al
lowance and to eliminate tax
benefits "given to recipients
and corporations by the 83rd
Congress."
Regrets Debt Increase ,
Mrs. Green said: "I regret
seeing the debt increase, but
I would strenuously oppose
taxes until the prosperity'
we hear so much about makes
itself felt in the pay envel
opes of the American people."
She said as' long as there are
"pockets of unemployment"
it would be "basically wrong"
to impose major tax increas
es to pay for social or defense
legislation which unbalanced
the budget.'
Norblad said that, unpopu
