When everybody is talking
about politics, let's talk about
the European corn borer.
According to a survey just
completed by the U.S. Depart
ment of Agriculture, this vora
cious insect pest, which was
accidentally imported from
Europe some 40 years ago,

People Asked to
Remember Laws
With the celebration of
Law Day, USA, just complet
ed, Chief of Police Charles P,
Champlin has asked area resi
dents to remember throughout
the year the importance of lo
cal, state and national laws.
"A vital part of these laws
are Medford's traffic regula
tions," Champlin pointed out,
"They should he respected
just as the more lofty laws."
He lists tnese tratlic laws as
some which are often dis
respected: coming to a full
halt at stop signs, keeping the
car under control by driving
at speeds consistent with con
ditions, bicycling with the
flow of traffic and crossing
streets at intersections.
These laws don't have
quite the importance about
them as laws of search and
seizure or murder, yet these
traffic laws, too, are on the
books to uphold the dignity
of each man, woman and child
and to protect lives, Champ
lin added.
He added that statistics
show traffic law breaking to
be an important factor behind
the 492 traffic deaths and
nearly 20,500 traffic injuries
in Oregon last year.
"Each Oregonian's practice
of the rules of safe walking,
driving and bicycling un
doubtedly would eliminate
much human suffering each
year," the chief concluded.

bite out of the 1959 corn crop.
Which is to say that but for
the corn borer the 1959 corn
crop would have been 68 mil
lion bushels larger than it was.
HWO questions:
Is that a disaster?
Or is it a blessing?
LET'S put it this way:
This 68 million bushels of
corn that the corn borer elim
inated from the 1959 crop
back in the corn belt won't
have to be added to the sur
plus that is already stored
away in the bins.
It will amount to 68 mil
lion bushels less stored corn
to hang over the corn markets
of the future like a dark thun
dercloud. That Is something.
4 NOTHER cynical question;
What will happen when
(and IF) all the storage bins
are full and there is no more
room to build additional bins?
Tb?t miaht solve the Prob
lem. If all the land back in
the corn belt were covered
with storage bins, there would
obviously be no more land on
which to raise surplus corn.
If half the land were cov
ered with storage bins, there j
would be only half as much
land on which to raise surplus
corn. That might help.
T KNOW all this sounds ter-
- ribly cynical. It isn't meant
that way.
The corn growers, the wheat
growers, the rice growers, the
cotton growers are not to be
blamed for producing all the
corn, all the cotton, all the
rice, all the wheat they can.
That is their job. Nor are
they to be censured for ac
cepting a subsidy. There are
so many subsidies that the ,
farmers should not be pillor-1
ied for accepting one.
The trouble lies with the
politicians, whose interest lies
in farming the farmers for
votes instead of farming the
land for crops. That's the root
of the problem.
Status of Minority
Groups Top Issue
Portland-ITOD-The status of
18 million Negroes and other
minority groups in this coun
try has become the nation's
number one domestic issue,!
Herbert Hill, labor secretary
of the National Association
for the Advancement of Col
ored People, said Friday.
Hill told about 500 persons
attending the Oregon Inter
group Relations Forum here
that the integration issues
should be considered a nation-1
al rather than a southern
question. '
The segregation situation,
he said, is breeding a new
generation with contempt for
law in some sections.
