    TEN HERALD AND NEWS
STOCKMAN SEES
JAP CRACK-UP
BY NEW YEAR S
Answ-irlng what he called the
"sixty-tour dollar question,
Congressman Lowell oiocicman
told Rotariani Friday that in his
opinion Japan will crack by the
first of the year.
Stockman opened his talk to
Kotary club by saying that this
had been his prediction some
time ago, and that he still stuck
to It, However, he mentioned
three unknown factors which
could keep Jap resistance up lor
two or three years.
Three Factors
The first point in question was
, "how much intelligence do the
Japs have? the question oeing
if they are smart enough to
know they're whipped. I'omt
two: "How much influence do
Jap militarists have over the
neoDle as a whole?" Point
three: "How fanatical is the jap
indoctrination?"
Stockman said that the ques
tion asked him next often to
that concerning the war's end
was what he tnougni 01 presi
dent Truman.
His appraisal was that the
president is a nomey man wno
knows the value of a dollar, who
can take expert advice to solve
problems, and who picks good
men 'as lieutenants and then
delegates them authority to do
a job. Their qualities, in his
opinion, make a welcome cnange
for the better.
Stockman characterized the
new members o the Truman
cabinet as "solid, sensible men.
OPA Problem
The OPA, Stockman said, Is
another topic often brought up
by his constituents. Defending
his votes for its continuance, he
said, "the principle of the act
is most excellent tne admin
istration of it is lousy." He
went on to say that the admin
istration of local boards had
been excellent but that local
boards are not given the author
ity to do good jobs.
The trouble with OPA, he
said, is that the executive heads
of most agencies are men who
have gone broke in private busi
ness or nave not been good
enough to hold private jobs. This,
plus the practice of most agency
heads of having unwieldy staffs
of 300 to 400 secretaries, makes
OPA almost unworkable at head
quarters.
Main Trouble
. In answering questions from
the club, Stockman said that
cutting down the top-heavy gov
ernment agencies, or any other
drastic change, can come only
from popular demand by the
voters of the country. "The
trouble is," he said, "everybody
has the 'gimmies.' "
. In closing, Stockman praised
Senators Cordon and Morse as
being highly intelligent, ef
fective and cooperative. Henry
aemon was chairman of the day,

Good Deed Daily at 68
I'm 68 and I try to do my
good deed daily. So the young
ish old man told it as we drove
on into the city. Then we asked
him If you were to go out into
eternity this very hour, would
all your good deeds blot out
even one sin? Would you go out
a sinless being? God is sinless,
Christ is sinless and so also are
the angels in heaven.
Then we went on to say that
God is now calling out a people
from all nations. A people who
believe in Christ for cleansing
and for the power of a new
life. When you permit your
heart to trust in Christ, the new
life is on the way. Let your
heart believe that Christ has
cleansed away all the sins of
your lifetime and it- is done.
From that instant, with, sins
blotted out, God names you a
. sinless being. ONE He now
has a new photo of you that
shows you sinless and gowned
in his own righteousness. TWO
He puts your name in His
Book of Life. THREE He gives
you the urge to do His will and
to look to Christ for the power.
To this man of 68, it was all
new that his good deeds would
not save him. And from what
followed, he must have been
turning- nis neart to Christ.
What does your heart say? Do
you die sinless in God's sight?
Your heart knows. - .
Would be glad to have a line
as to your victory in Christ for
this space paid for by a West
Slope dairyman.

GROUP VIEWS FALL
One of the most important
fall seeded grain trials, oi wheal
and barley particularly, viewed
at luimuun agriculture experi
ment station ncld day, Friday,
was of extreme interest to tho
small group who attended.
A. h. Uross, superintendent of
the station, conducted a lour, ex
plaining tne trials and results of
grain varieties, alfalfa varieties.
meadow foxtail, potato-sprout
ing preventive treatment, and
grain trials on lower Klamath
Hike.
Utah winter barley, planted
October 1, 1944, now ready for
harvest, showed evidence of a
good yield, even on rather poor
land. A three-acre field of this
barley, seeded October 26, was
of particular, interest. General
forecasts were that this field
would yield over 100 bushels of
excellent barley.
A field of hymar wheat, seed
ed October 26, also showed
promise of an excellent yield.
Both of these fall-seeded
crops were on relatively poor
lands that had previously been
class 5 lands, incapable of bear
ing taxes and water chorges.
These lands have been improved
with drainage, sulphur added to
the soil, and legume crops, as
well as frequent leaching out of
salts with water. .
