Oregon s Economy
Oregon is going about its economic develop
ment in tne wrong way, and it hasn t much mor
time to straighten itself out, is the message whic
Howard Morgan brings back to Oregon.
The former Oregon public utility commis
sioner has concluded a two-year portion of t
term as a federal power commissioner. This has
given him the opportunity both to see first-hand
how industrialization ana population growth are
affecting other pails of America, and to study
industrial trends; and he has taken some time
to correlate these to the state of Oregon.
He has seen a New England river into which
a firm employing a few nundred persons has
been allowed to dump industrial wastes with a
bacteria count comparable to raw sewage from
a city ot lso,uUJ persons. And he has seen towns
in the bast, not many years ago aptly desenbed
as charming, in which the sun is no longer visible
at any time because of the overcast of pollutants
IVf ORGAN has also seen unemployment and
T squalor and slums (one has but to look
around Washington, D.C., to see the worst as
well as the best of the United States).
And all of this is coming our way, Morgan
says, unless we do something now to head it off.
We don't have to, and shouldn't, give away
land, precious natural resources, and tax ad
vantages as we re now doing to entice new
industry and to encourage the expansion of ex
isting industry, says Morgan.
In the first place, this encourages industries
which are poor neighbors rather than good neigh
bors who share the tax responsibility to help
Duild new schools, streets, sewaee disposal
plants, water systems, and so on. In the second
place, industry has been coming to Oregon and
will continue to come in ever-increasing propor
tion compared with other areas of the country,
whether we dispense incidental favors or not. for
we have in ample supply the ingredient which
most other parts of the country are running out
oi iresn water.

fPHE MAIN thing Morgan would have us do
with regard to Oregon s economy, then, is to
prepare our state for the invasion sure to hit
our children and grandchildren, and even most
of us living today. He would have us concentrate
on passing protective laws and forming active
programs to assure the conservation of our nat
ural resources, their reclamation where neces
sary, and orderly planning for their future use
to fullest advantage for all citizens.
Morgan emphasizes that this is not some
thing to nod our heads about and set aside for
some other day. It is a fact that life in Oregon
within the next generation will be completely
different from what it has ever been before, be
cause of the flow of people and industry sure to

us do with retrard to Oregon's economv is to iec-

ognize mat we cannot solve all ot our own prob
lems without help.
UNEMPLOYMENT, he says, will never be
solved in Oregon so lone as it remains a na
tional problem. If we attract more jobs to Oregon,
we will merely attract more unemployed workers
from some other region of the country. But if
we worn with the other states and the federal
government to defeat unemployment nationally,
then when we get new jobs in Oregon they will
be filled by the unemployed in Oreeon. closer
to the ideal of one new job per new , immigrant
or youngster coming into the labor force.
freight rates to Eastern markets, power in

west, and other regional and national matters
beyond Oregon's power alone to control, are all
areas in which the state should be workintr. m
stead of pretending that the federal government
and other political subdivisions are the natural
enemies of Oregon, says Morgan.
Morgan's message is not a comforting one,
but it has the ring of prophecy. His anticipation
or the problems to be raised bv the new life
which will be forced upon this region, and his
suggestions tor heading them off, are logical.

To the Editor: I've always
been under the impression
that according to a state law
II candidates must file an
account of all campaign ex
penses. Have read the papers
very carefully but, to date
haven t seen where our Gov.

expense: Olympla, San Fran

D. C, Massachusetts, New
York and Miami, to say noth
ing of the regular tri-weekly

After putting his man
speeches together, cross-word
like, I have come up with
humdinger of an idea. Save
the taxpayers the $20 billion
estimated cost of placing
man on the moon by sending
him up there free. How? Very
simple, just take three of
Mark s political trial balloons,
put two side by side on the
ground, cover with a fire
proof tarp, enshrine the astro
naut snugly atop the third
and place it on top, point him
in the right direction and then
touch a match to those under
nealh. BANG I I I WHOOM
and he will be up there be
fore the gas and smoke is
cleared away. Bring him
back? No need to, as all he
has to do Is release the gas
from the ascension balloon
and, Presto! the snow and ice
the moon is supposed to be
covered with will be melted
and in short time the entire
planet will be covered with a
green, luscious growth. As
the supply of balloons will be
inexhaustable, others can go
up in the same manner and
in a short time the planet
will modernized to the ex
tent ot drive-ins and snack
bars.
Reward? No thanks. Being
of a very modest nature I
couldn't accept, but willing to
do a small task, the privilege
of lighting those to send Mark
up there.

Now Imago
To the Editor: Your recent
editorial, "Sundown No
More," reporting the "new'
treatment racial minorities
are receiving in Medford, was
superb!
Since it was developed in
part from Inquiries 1 had
made for a report I am pre
paring for the next meeting
of the Medford Human Rights
Council, I think your readers
should know a few additional
facts that you shyly chose to
leave out.
(I can hear some of your
readers now; "Eric Allen
shy?" And I can hear their
laughter.)
The Human Rights Council
Is trying to determine its ac
complishments and explore
future responsibilities. What
other towns arc diing or have
done is of interest to our of
ficers and members in evalu
ating our activities.
The question I had posed to
Mr. Mark Smith, director of
the Civil Rights divlsio of
the Oregon Bureau of Labor.
was, "in the area of civil lib
erties, how does Medford
stand in comparison to other
communities in Oregon?"
Mr. Smith answered that he
considered Medford one of
the most progressive com
munlties in the state and he
went on to say:
1. That probably the Med
ford people did not realize
now the Medford "reputa
tion" had changed in Port
land and San Francisco.
2. That Medford's progress
was important because the
community had not wasted
time explaining or apologiz
Ing for circumstances that
had created the earlier, well
deserved, "bad" reputation.
3. That the "new Medford
Image" among officials, mi
nority citizens and minority
group leaders up and down
the Pacific Coast, was "due
solely to the editorials writ
ten by Eric Allen."
I can hear you say that you
couldn't have done it alone.
that many other peode have
worked hard to help make
our town healthier and hap
pier and fairer, in fact and in
spirit.
And that of course Is true
but, when leadership has been
exercised, and results have
been accomplished, then rec
ognition is due.
And so I hore von feel a lit.

chair. Speaking for vour
