Oregon also has one national park, Crater Lake. We have nothing aeainst Arizona, and nre sume that all of its 17 to mention Grand Canyon National Park and Lake Mead National Recreation area) are well deserved. But we're a bit jealous. e TE BELIEVE that Oregon has just as beauti 'r ful scenery, and, except for Indian pueblo rums, lust as interesting Oregon has been slighted in the national park and national monument department. We'd like to see Oregon recognized a bit more equitably. The first step should be the creation of a national seashore in the Oregon Dunes area a project on which the late Sen. Richard L. Neu berger was working at the time of his death. A bill to create such an area, and to name if for Senator Neuberger, has been introduced in the House by Congressman Porter, and in the Senate by benators Mansfield and Kuchel. It has an excellent chance of passing, now that it has the support of most agencies and individuals in volved. PUT that shouldn't be " for areas of national For instance, in the number of areas with every bit as much attrac tion as areas which have been honored with federal designation and protection. First on the list, we Sisters area, including ful and fascinating lava The Mt. Jefterson "wilderness" area, mav lar as, say, Glacier or Mt. National Parks. But it is and significant as, for instance, Great Smokies National Park, and others. e e e a THERE are areas in the Wallowa Mountains TirVilori wo wnnlrl pnmnnro with nnv mnnntiiin scenery anywhere in the And, though it mignt strike some as iancnui, there are parts of the "high desert" in central and eastern Oregon which should, we believe, be set aside and enjoyed as samples of unique west- ern terrain DieaK ana Dare dui, in lis way, oeau tiful and attractive. And what about the Snake deepest canyon Perhaps we need a few more people like Will Steele, who almost single-handed earned on the battle which created Crater Lake National Park, and like Dick Neuberger, who knew the beauties and benefits of the out-pf-doors, and fought to preserve them. E.A. Legislative Pay Most of the measures on which Oregon's vot ers will pass judgment this year will be on the November election ballot. There's one exception, a measure which will be on the May primary election ballot. This proposal would raise the pay of members of the legislature from the equivalent of $50 per month to $175 per month. The measure should pass. About the only question is whether the increase is really enough. e THERE are many reasons why legislators should be paid more than they are. Most important is the fact that with legisla tive pay only $600 per year, the number of people who can run for the legislature is limited to those who are wealthy enough so they don't have to worry, those who are "subsidized" by some special-interest group, or those who are willing to make a considerable financial sacrifice. As a result many potentially top-flight legis lators never even run for that office. They can't afford to. THE "Bi-Partisan Committee for Fair Legisla 1 tive Salaries" has been formed to work for passage of the pay-increase measure. It reports that Oregon's legislators are among the worst paid in the nation. Just to the south of us, California pays its leg islators $6,000 a year. Washington pays $1,200 per year, plus $15 per day during legislative ses sions. Alaska pays $3,000 per year, plus $40 per day for expenses during sessions. In Oregon the pay is $600 per year, pins 10 cents per mile for oiilv one trip betweem home and Salem, plus stationery and postage. And that's all. TOR this amount, they must attend the regular sessions every other year (plus whatever spe cial sessions may be called), and in addition de vote a great deal of time between sessions to leg islative committee work and other duties. Since regular sessions in recent years have been lasting about 100 days, it works out to about $12 for each day of the session, far less than the cost of living in Salem, to say nothing of lost income, travel expenses, the necessity to main tain two homes, and so on. No one should have to pay out several thou sand dollars for the privilege of servintr his state as a member of its lawmaking body. E.A. Oregon?

These are the male sex and the Demo cratic party. The concern of the men in this 40th an niversary year of woman's suffrage can be simply stated. Let's face It: there is a strong probability that for the first time in history more female than male votes will be cast and that women will begin to control our politics - in both parties - even more than they have been doing. This is a threJt to tradition which all men can properly fear, whether they be Demo crats, Republicans, indepen dents or whatnot. You don't need to be a partisan - except a pro-male partisan - to look with less than satisfaction on this prospect. You only need to be a member of that large band, the highly un-exclusive American male ciuo. WOMEN long since have been spending most of the money earned In the United States, even though most of it is earned by men. Now they are on the verge of doing most of the electing, too. The Democratic party's anx iety, on the other hand, is strictly partisan - and strictly business. For the Democrats certain unpleasant facts are all too clear: For many years each suc cessive presidential election has seen more and more wom en voting. For example, 39 per cent more women voted in 1952 than in 1948, as against only 16 per cent more men. In 1948 women made up 46 per cent of the Republican vote: In 1952 they made up 52 per cent; in 1956 they made up 52.5 per cent. Already, therefore, Repub lican women have been out voting Republican men in that party. Moreover, In all recent his tory the "women's vote" has been more and more Republi can. In 1952, according to figures based on surveys by the nonpartisan A m e r 1 can Heritage Foundation, women represented 46.5 per cent of the total vote cast for Demo cratic candidate Adlai E. Stevenson and 51.9 per cent of the total vole cast for Re publican Dwight D. Eisenhow er. In 1956 women represent ed 48.2 per cent of the Steven son vote and 52.5 per cent of the Eisenhower vote. IK) PUT IT another way, an estimated 12,700.000 wom en voted for Stevenson In 1952 against 17.BOO.000 for Eisenhower. In 1956 the total women's vote for Stevenson dropped to 12.000,000 while that for Eisenhower rose to 18.700,000. And in 1956 wom en came within an Inch of casting as large i grand total vote - that Is, in both parties -as the men. The grand total female vote was estimated by the Gallup at 30,700.000; the male vote at 30,900,000. Now, the latest census fig ures put the adult female population for this year at 55.6fil.000 against a male population of 52,378.000. And the future gels tougher for man the farther the census bureau looks into it. In 1970 adult females will outnumber males by 4,668,000; in 1980 by 5,454.000. Women thus could be do scribed as the most profound ly u n s e e r e t (and unquiet) weapon of the G.O.P. for this November - and for later. To sharpen up this already sharp William (. wnlte Menace S. WHITE weapon is the purpose of Mrs. Clare B. Williams, the Repub lican national committee's fe male chief, In the eighth an nual Republican women's con ference which brings 2,000 G.O.P. women here for parti san basic training April 2 to April 5. THE DEMOCRATS have a very savvy ladies' chair man, too, in Mrs. Katie Louch heim. There is no doubt, how ever, that the fundamental Democratic problem today is to find a way to appeal to more women - who on the whole seem to prefer the more-or-less conservatism of the Republicans to the more-or-less liberalism of the Demo crats. Maybe there Is one other point, too. This correspondent has long suspected - and never proved - that the fact the G.O.P. Is usually considered more desirable socially has not done the G.O.P. any harm with the ladies. (Copyright, I960, by United Feature Syndicate, Inc.)

MORE from Washington, along the same line, but even more fantastic: Representative James G. Fulton of Pennsylvania pro posed today that a GIANT HOSPITAL AND MEDICAL CENTER BE LAUNCHED TO ORBIT AROUND THE EARTH. Congressman Fulton, a member of the house space committee, said the radiation in space might aid cancer victims and the weightless ness would be beneficial to old folks and persons suffer ing from heart ailments. HMMMMMMMM. Do vou reckon we lust MIGHT be going off the deep end in this space business? PERSONALLY. 1 have a no tion that before we start launching hi.pitnls and giant medical centers off into the wild blue yonder we'd beller get more of them financed and built and functioning here on old Mother Earth. Wilson Compares Federal Spending To Old-Time Tree1 Lunch; Costs Hidden By LYLE C. WILSON Washington -(UPD- This lr the month of the day of reck oning. The day is April 15.

The old time beer sa loon, itself, was an institutiflh and it, too, is gone along with free lunch, perpetual motion, and, maybe, the pioneer spirit of the USA. Free lunch varied from sa loon to saloon. At most it was hot, thickly-sliced ripe ham, with gravy, vegetables and such, or a big roast of beef with all the trimmings. At the least it was of sandwiches and pickles, tomatoes, perhaps, and all the mustard or ketch up you cbuid spread. This free lunch was for the customers and there was no direct charge. In that sense, only, this lunch was free. With a nickel beer, a customer could browse the free lunch counter from end to end and hack again, forking up eata bles which would cost, maybe, 85 cents to one dollar in a I restaurant nearby. had been wounded in clashes with South African police. Verwoerd's warning meant that more could die unless they returned to their allot ted place. Shows Attitude Early Verwoerd is a proiessor of psychology turned politician whose racist attitudes became apparent early. In 1936, he was prominent in a public protest against plans for South Africa to pro vide a haven for a shipload of Jewish refugees from Nazi Germany. In the last 10 years, he has authored some of South Africa's most repressive race laws. Ironically, at the same time he has been instrumental in building schools, hospitals and housing developments for Negroes. But their numbers have been insufficient to make more than a minor dent in slums, illness and ignorance among Africans. Born in Netherlands Verwoerd was born In the Netherlands in 1901 but moved with his parents to Africa when he was two. Before becoming professor of applied psychology at the University of Stellenbosch, cultural center of Afrikaaner nationalism, he studied in Germany at the universities of Hamburg, Leipzig and Ber lin. He Is a tall, handsome man with an athletic figure who boasts that not one of his seven children ever has been bathed or put to bed by a Negro servant. His Nationalist Party draws its support from the 1,600,- Johnson of Kennnedy, Humphrey, Sy mington, Morse and Nixon. Well. I want to be fair about this thing but I have encountered difficulties. I was told upon telephoning his of fice that Johnson has no cam paign headquarters here. Visits Senate That being the case, I de cided to do the next best thing and beard the candidate in his own den. So I headed for the U.S. Senate, where Johnson serves as resident miracle worker and leader of the Democratic majority. Johnson strides up to his chair, sits down on the back of his neck and coils his long legs around each other. Then he opens a manila portfolio marked "floor folder" and outlines the day'i senatorial business. There is a saying that only God knows what the U.S. Sen ate will do, but it is generally recognized that Johnson makes a reasonably reliable prophet. Appears Relaxed Currently, his powers of clairvoyance, as well as his reputation as a prime mover of legislation, are being sore ly tested by the civil rights fandango. But n o n c h a ntly slouched there behind his desk, alertly relaxed under a cross-fire of questions, he gives the impression of hav ing the situation well In hand. Thus far, Johnson has been running for president mainly in Texas. Some observers think he will need sonic help from the other 49 states, but nobody ever got rich under estimating LBJ. According to some dope stories I have seen recently, Johnson has been gradually moving Texas out of the South and into the West in order to broaden his political footing. From what I know of John son, I wouldn't be surprised if he tried to move It north and east, too, and perhaps even take in parti of Canada, A bum minus a nickel for beer might dart in and out clutching In one hand a stolen sandwich and clutching the seat of his pants with the other. The store keepers did not encourage bums minus nickels to browse the lunch counter. A kick in the pants sped such moochers on their way. Built In Prices The honored guests were the beer and whisky drink ers, the rummier the better. Built into the prices of their beer and whisky was a fat and ample margin of profit. This margin more than paid for the liquor consumed. It paid, also, for the so-called free lunch. It had left over enough pennies per drink to swell the storekeeper's bank account, to send his kids to college and the like. No one ever claimed that 000 South Africans of Dutch ancestry who call themselves Afrikaaners. His party sees a spiritual justification for keeping the races apart and Verwoerd uses Old Testament references to support his arguments.

Wood on the Ground To theEditor: I am of the opinion that there should be steps taken in the legislature to prohibit leaving portions of trees in the woods, after log ging, which can be sold for any purpose, to require that such useful portions of trees be sold or otherwise be dis posed of in a manner which will benefit the people and not left on the ground to rot or be unnecessarily burned. The time is sure to come when our virgin timber will all be gone, much of which has been left in the woods to rot and of which a goodly per centage is still useable for many purposes. , One firm of my acquaint ance has many thousands of acres of logged over territory, which has a terrific volume of useful material left on the ground to rot. They evidently are not interested in selling or giving away this material, much of which is quite valu able for some purposes, split shakes, shingles, fence posts, grape stakes, mine props, fence rails, (believe it or not, there is a market for them) poles for construction, etc. In fact, the firm referred to above has an attitude some what like a dog with a bone. Something should be done. Floyd R- McCabe Mt. Pitt Star route Butte Falls, Ore. Box-Cars) To the Editor: Who's got all der box-cars? Ve have appoint ed 20 Committees to find out.

It was Houttiekier'i own ex pensive brand. Feeling that all was well with the world Houttieker walked the few blocks to hia home only to discover that the place had been burglarized. Among the items missing was his humi- I dor of cigars. the free lunch was not good. But it was not fres. The cus tomers were picking up their part of the tab each time their elbows bent. The cost was con cealed, however, and the storekeeper got away with claiming that his forage was free lunch. The customers never chal lenged this claim any more than the voter-taxpayer seems to challenge the claim of the politicians that he can give them something for nothing simply by tapping thn U.S. Treasury till. These promises of the politicians are begin ning to resound through the land this year. If the record proves anything, it probably is that the voter-taxpayer is likely to buy the promises of the loudest promiser who promises the most. Promises Cost The idea that these prom ises will cost money and that someone will have to pay seems not to be raised in the voter-taxpayer's mind. Per haps that is because the prom ising politicians have im proved on the strategy of the saloon free lunch. Saloon free lunch paid its way over the bar as drinks were bought. Political free lunch is part ly on the cuff. The voter-taxpayer Is required merely to make a down payment. He leaves it to his kids and theirs to pay the rest.

Backyard Burners Heavy Contributor To Air Pollution Ashland - Back yard rub bish burners are among the heaviest contributors to air pollution and smog, Meteor ologist William Rogers told the Ashland Chamber of Conv merce this week. Rogers is an employee of the U. S. weather bureau, and is in charge of the annual frost warning program for orchardists. He praised local fruit grow ers for their voluntary efforts to control air pollution from ochard heating and said that "within five years all orchard heaters in the valley will be of an approved type." He esti mated that full conversion should cut down smoke by 60 per cent. "The people of the valley who are shouting the loudest are the back yard burners and I understand nothing can be done about them because they won't stand for it," Rogers declared. Year - around trash burning in one back yard would be about equal to one day of orchard heating, he said. Too restrictive measures would greatly damage the valley's fruit industry, accord ing to the meteorologist. He added that sawmill operators, too, are trying to cooperate in smog prevention. Describing Medford as a "very bad smog area," he ex plained that the bad inversion situation is created by a lack of wind and by cold air below upper warm air. REJECT FISH PLAN Moscow (UPF- Japan Thurs day turned down a Soviet plan for slashing the red sal mon catch and claimed it was technically impractical to sort red salmon from other types of fish.
