WEST GARNERS
APPOINTMENTS
111 CONGRESS
By WILLIAM E. LOWELL
WASHINGTON. Jan. 13 ()
The west was riding high as the
79th congress inched through
its first business week.
In committee assignments so
tar announced the west claimed
two new senate chairmanships
Murray (D-Mont.) for . labor
and education, O'Mahoney (D
Wyo.) for Indian affairs: whiie
Thomas (D-Utah) shifted from
education to military affairs.
It also placed Rep. Anderson
(D-N.M.) on the house ways and
means committee. Reps. Gilles
pie (R-Colo.) and Horan (R
Wash.) on appropriations. Most
others found themselves strate
gically assigned to aid their
states' interests.
President Roosevelt presented
a budget that seemed to meet
the needs of most western activ
ities, including $44,000,000 for
reclamation. But he also re
newed his suggestion for water
resource development on a
basin-wide basis, which isn't too
happy a prospect for most west
ern members.
Westerners forced a postpone
ment of increases in grazing
fees and proposed to look into
the necessity for the change, but
lost their fight against OPA
ceilings on beef "on the hoof."
Some were consoled by the be
lief that the new ceilings were
not so bad as had been expect
ed. The rivers and harbors bill
came back to the senate con
taining several needed projects
to fit western harbors for the
new, heavier-type vessels and
minus the item which blocked
approval of the half-million doU
lar program last session. This
was the proposal of Rep. Elliott
CD-Calif.) to waive the reclama
' tion law's 160-acre limitation for
the central valley project.
Twenty-nine of the 43 west
ern house members cast a fu
tile vote against the bill to re
create the Dies committee to
investigate un-American affairs.

Bang's Disease in Cattle
May Affect Public Health
During recent . months the
problem of Bang's disease in
dairy cattle has shifted from
one only of economic import
ance to the dairy industry to
one which may also affect the
public health, according to a
statement issued by Lee Holli
day, president . of the Oregon
Dairy association, and Antone
Larson, president of the Oregon
Dairy Manufacturer's associa
tion. All reasonable precautions arc
being taken in order that dairy
products will meet standards af
fording safety to the health of
the consumer, however, and the
following program has been pro
posed. A complete pasteurization
program for all milk and dairy
products which would include
food products containing milk,
manufactured in Oregon or else
where, has been suggested.
This appears to be impossible
as the war production board re
cently released a statement, say
ing that equipment for such a
program cannot be obtained be
fore at least one year after all
hostilities have ceased.
Recognition must also bo
given, say the officers of the
two statewide dairy organiza
tions, to the plight of small
dairymen who are selling raw
milk from herds that may bo
considered disease free under
the most rigid interpretation of
that term. It is therefore sug
gested that all milk and cream
sold in Oregon in the bottle
trade be either pasteurized or
produced by carefully controlled
clean herds and that all butter,
ice cream, cottage cheese and
milk drinks and fountain con
coctions be pasteurized.
it is also suggested by these
organizations that herd testing
laws and procedures be stepped
up to the limit of available in
spection and veterinarian serv
ice. Herd testing laws are now
being carefully rewritten and
administrative policies outlined
with the purpose in mind of
doing everything possible to
control Bang's disease and tin
dulant fever at the source.
Recent surveys indicate a
wide variation in sanitary levels
throughout the state of Ore
gon. It is therefore believed im
perative that a state standard
for fluid milk be established
below which no city ordinance
will be permitted to go, accord
ing to the released statement.
It is further suggested that
both the public and the indus
try may be better served if leg
islation is enacted to bring
about a better correlation be
tween the state board of health
and the department of agricul
ture. The department is now en
forcing sanitary laws covering
all eating houses, but it is felt
by these dairy organizations,
that this activity should be
transferred t o the board o f
health, since the serving of food
to the public is purely a health
problem.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13 M')
Defense of the Pacific coust
would bo strengthened. Senator
Cordon (R-Ore.) says, by. estab
lishment of a naval academy in
that area.
Cordon, liko his predecessor,
tho late Scnutor Charles L. Mc
Nnry, has introduced a bill to
establish such a federal school.
Men trained on tho Pacific
coast, Cordon told a reporter,
would have a more compre
hensive knowledge of defense
needs of the coast; they would
encounter every conceivable
condition of terrain, climate and
navigable water.
Opposition of the war and
