Xoott, ipieta mrermatio Park Board Measure A CITY measure to be on the November 3 ballot which may not be fully understood Is the proposal to abol ish the park board as now constituted and transfer ita functions to the mayor and council. At present, under a state law, the members of the . city park board are APPOINTED FOR LIFE by the cir cuit judge. We do pot know all that was behind the pas sage of Oils law many years ago, but when we first heard of It we could hardly believe it , Now, we favor the measure which will be on the November 3 ballot not because we question the judg ment of any circuit judge or the ability of the members of the park board. Our attitude on the matter is purely impersonal, based on a sincere belief that the method as set up in the state law is unsound. Life appointments are hardly the thing for a park board, or any other city office, so far as that is concerned. A person appointed for life' may lose interest or other wise become unsuitable for the office, but can hang on until death parts him from the position he should have left long ago. Life appointments for public office are a rarity for that reason, being confined chiefly to the fed eral judiciary. That feature is enough to justify the change now proposed. City parks are city property, and it Is reasonable that their administration should be tied In closely with the policies carried out by the elective officials of the city. Those are the officials we can hold responsible, and those are the policies which come frequently before the voters for approval or disapproval through the elections of the officials that carry them out. i? What is planned, as we understand it, Is that the city park board will not be eliminated if this measure passes. A park board will be set up by city ordinance, with terms of say five years each, staggered. We suggest that present interested park board members would be Ideal prospecta for these appointments for, as we have said, we have no quarrel with the way they have handled the work and we do not consider this measure a "crack" at our park board. Neither do we consider it a "crack" at the present circuit judge or any judge of the past who hat had this appointive job thrust upon him by state law. As far as we are concerned, we would orefer if the park board set-up were provided in the city charter, with appointments by the mayor to be confirmed by the coun cil. Perhaps this can be done ; later. The proposal on November ballot could be the first step in this direction. Big Crop Goals for 1943 Will Be Needed for War ByHvuLMXllOM tor;,-' I -us WASHINGTON. Oct. 23 The trouble at Guadalcanal has been that the main Jap battle fleet was cantered in an area Just north of there, while ours was scattered around the world. The Japs, therefore, have been Die to call upon an overwhelm ing force of na val power center upon that one point any time they chose and we could do nothing to bal ance it Their naval strength available for summoning to that point out classes our Paul Mellon probably two to one. Ashore, on that magnetized fly speck in the far Pacific, the opposing forces apparently were about equal, after the October 15 Jap landings. Each side ore- sumably had something like 15,- uuu men. But the final outcome of tha struggle obviously rested from we start, not upon the land strength, or upon the ability of enner side to reenforce its rorees, out solely upon the ex lent to which the Japs would cnoose to use their fleet. With It they might seize control of the seas at anytime, and isolate our resisting land force.

An au thoritative computation Indl- cates the drys have gained about IS local communities in the last 42 contests this year, The explanation of Senator Josh Lee's attempt to tack a mil itary post prohibition on the draft bill is two-fold. His Okla homa is a dry state, into which liquor has seeped to the army in considerable quantity. Also, on a national scale, considerable trouble has developed from 11 quor dispensing conditions around army posts. But when Mississippi's dry Senator Bilbo attempted to start a national dry campaign two or three months ago with a meeting here', no one came (including the noted dry leaders like Henry rora, who were invited.) So while the prohibition move- poused a policy of silence durlnir ment has gained some consider- actual continuing operations, and 8ble momentum since the start n unwi engagements were war, U does not yet ap with an army of 10 million men in the offing, it is under- stanaaoie wny iu3 farm pro- auction goals catling lor a food output even greater than this year's record total will be need- ed, reports R. B. Taylor, chair man of Oregon's USDA war board. . Selective service and army of ficials indicate that America's armed forces will number about 10 million men by the end of 1943. The food requirements of an army of that size will take a large share of the nation's food production. This required pro duction is recognized as a na tional task in which farmers will need full support in meeting la Dor ana other problems. "One day's rations for sueh an army will take almost 41 million pounds, or 819 carloads of food," Taylor said. "That' food in con centrated forms canned, dried nd dehydrated that can be shipped to the fighting fronts." Oregon's entire 1942 pork production would do little more than supply a week's meat ra tions for America's projected 1943 army, points out Taylor. The dally food requirements for 10 million men, based on the army's menu for expeditionary lorce no. l, will include 9,355,- uuu pounds of meat and meat substitutes, 4,634,000 pounds of dairy products, 738,000 pounds of cereals, 7,345,000 pounds of vegetames, 5,908,000 pounds of fruits and 12,765,000 pounds of other foods." ' : Food for the army comes first, and unless farm production can be increased proportionately, less food will be available for civilians,.' the war board chair man explains. Farmers are will ing to do their Job, he believes, but they will need more help. Farms will probably lose addi tional men to the armed forces pear to be a potent political factor. It is true that quiet local tem perance units, exerting individ ual pressure upon politicians, without any national display, could conceivably exert a con trolling influence on congress. So far, however, national prohi bition is only an extremely re mote possibility; over- opera- L and to war Industry next year, hence city dwellers, women and school children will have to give even more help than they did this year and other labor aids will be needed if production goals are to be met.

(To the Editor) As a man trying to put over the spud harvest In the Klamath basin I would like to pay tribute to the Klamath high school girls. The Paul Tschlrky ranch In Tulelake was needing helb bad ly. Spud pickers making as high as $30 a day quit the job. Good spuds. Ominous, lowering clouds added to the dismal outlook. I observed two cars rabidly entering the spud field, honking horns and waving hands. Two cars packed with Klamath high school girls eager to do their bit. In a Jiffy, they had on boIU and were ready to ramble. iney never had picked oota- loes beiore and before I cou d give a few Instructions one Blrl had completed a row across the field, one quarter of a mile, and filled every sack, 100 pounds. We needed a truck driver, they were only getting $10 to $16 per aay. una of the girls was be hind the wheel before I could recover my shattered morale. She was an expert. They never slowed down and at quitting time they clamored for more spuds, 20 more sacks anyway. With such girls the country can't lose the war. We will win, its a cinch. These girls would volunteer to drive the tanks while the men do the shooting, P. C. CHAMBERS.
