Member, Associated Praaa Member Audit Bureau Circulation Today's Round -Up By MALCOLM EPLEY PRESIDENCY of the state senate which car ries the added responsibility of acting as governor under certain circumstances will be ought at the forthcoming legislature session by Klam ath's Senator Marshall Cor net. Senator Cornett is an avowed candidate, and indica tion that he is making head way is seen in a dispatch from Salem quoting Senator Doug las McKay, another who has been discussed as a possibility for the post, as declaring him self definitely for 'enator Cornett's candidacy. Senator McKay gave j s f EPLEY clean-cut denial of any intention to run for the presidency. Mc- Kay has just been released from the army, i where he served as a major. He will run for i election from Marlon county and if elected will ! count himself with Cornett in the presidency i contest. j The other declared candidate for the senate leadership is Senator William Walsh of Coos Bay. Senators Cornett and Walsh are now in the preliminary stages of their campaigns. They are somewhat handicapped by. the fact that 16 members of the senate must be elected this year,, making the personnel of the body un certain .until after this fall's general election. Senator Cornett was re-elected to the upper house two years ago for a four-year term, and will not have to run this year, giving him more time for his campaign for the presidency. The Klamath man is among the abler members of the upper house who can be counted upon to bring fairness, talent and dignity to this Important office. We hope he is elected. Early Filing INCIDENTALLY, political aspirants hereabouts are reminded that the law on candidacy fil ing has been changed and all who expect to run for nomination in the May primary must complete their filings not later than March 8. Heretofore, candidates were given until 45 days before election to file, but the period has been lengthened to 75 days. In past election years, even under the old law, there were notable stirrings in local poll tics by this time. For some reason, little along that line has happened this year, and we are waiting with Interest for some one to start the ball rolling. There are a few important posts open this year, and those who are going to run will have to be making up their minds pretty soon. .,. The Jaycee Award v FOR two reasons, special significance is at tached to the selection of Karl Dehllnger for the Junior chamber of commerce award to the young man giving outstanding civic service. Mr. Dehllnger is a fanner, and his most im portant service in the last year has been as head of the county's active grower organiza tion. Thus his selection represents a recogni tion of the importance of agriculture in the community economy and community life. Mr. .Dehllnger is an ex-service man. It is highly desirable for community welfare that the young men coming back into civilian life . take an active lead in constructive community affairs. That is exactly what Mr. Dehlinger has done, and his selection serves to emphasize the community's welcome to veterans as com munity: leaders. ' The award winner is member of a prom inent farming family, and may be expected to contribute increasingly to , worthy community activities In" future years. - WASHINGTON, Jan. 29 -All signs from within point to the food shortage continu ing another year or more. The man who came into the Truman cabinet so clear-mindedly to cure shortages, Agricul ture Secretary Anderson, has run into the usual Washington dead end for the ambitious. The old gang in his department, the administrators and sub-administrators of the Wallace new deal ing regime, has passively resisted him. He is "in bad" with them, as the insiders themselves put It And, then, when he came out for a new program to abandon the parity price concept and to accept the world price theory in some respects, the farm folks and their lobbies here started letting him down. This is what is behind the rumors occasion ally printed of late in some of the columns that he has lost Mr. Truman's confidence and may retire. Indeed some who have their noses to the White House pane, suspect the old gang is grooming a successor, Milton Eisenhower, brother of the chief of staff. Eisenhower is more of a new deal politico than the general. Certainly it is difficult to see how Anderson can survive. . His novel price theory is con trary to what he does in his own milk produc ing business in Albuquerque. There he sells what milk the market will take at the highest possible price, and lets his surplus go for whatever it will bring. The idea of abandoning the parity notion made the farm bureau federation right mad. And the opposing crowd in the farmers union turned against him when he named Lassiter instead of Hubgins to farm security. Became Involved SIC transit clear-minded new officials. When he was in congress, Mr. Anderson knew just what to do. The objectivity of his post then permitted him clarity of vision. But when he took the cabinet seat, to face the clique which ran his department (as cliques of subordinates dominate the top men of all these government departments), he immediate ly became involved, and each week plunged him into deeper involvement. Remember how Mr. Truman came in an nouncing how closely he would work with congress. Now before his first year is out, he is involved in such a desperate struggle with congress, he is asking people to propagandize against them. The loudest cheer for his recent message came not from the chastised legislators, but from Sidney Hillman of CIO. The con fidence of business which he enjoyed at the outset slipped perceptibly also with the re jection of his wage compromise by both steel and motors. I have rarely seen this process to fall. The human personality rarely Is able to surmount it. Outside of bureaucracy, men may see clear ly and devise clearcut programs. As soon as they get in the seats of power, they fall under the spells of bureaucracy, adulation, and the politics of the self-perpetuating old gangs or resisting, become involved in self-thwarting struggles. Farmers Afraid Of Abundance THE secret of Mr. Anderson's troubles, how ever, I suspect, are the same as the rea sons why the food shortages will continue beyond another crop. His conflicts with the clique and lobbies are, superficial reflections of a deeper cause, namely: farmers are afraid of abundance. The farm leaders think they can easily produce too much for this country, know they cannot sell much abroad, and hence by nature resist any abundance theory. Winter wheat was hurt by weather and much of the seeding did not come up. Meat produc tion, already short, Is being permanently dam aged by the strike, which keeps stock feeding on the farms at this season and hence is likely to result in a feed shortage. Poultry supplies are being drained by the meat shortage. Eggs may be plentiful for a little while, in the spring, but not for long. Vegetables fluctuate, but there should be enough if the weather is favorable. Yet if Britain spends 25 per cent of her loan for our short foods, and we try feeding the world as everyone seems to want, our meager prospects will be still further en dangered. It is impossible, therefore, to expect relief from the food shortage anytime soon. SIDE GLANCES . -v I T COfH. IW 1 UU MHYK1, IP. T. HHt MT.

Ore (To the Editor): In recent times editors and commentators, not without cause, have written and exhorted the citizens to main' tain respect for our congress and senate. But in light of some things we are witnessing and hearing of our congress it is causing our respect to wear threadbare, stretching rather thin our pa tience. Labor troubles rampant threatening to engulf our eco nomic and social structure, great combines disdainful ot much ot anything, or anyone, except divi' dends. The countless problems of re construction, our continual loss of respect throughout the world. All these and legions more to solve; and remedy, and now the shameless Bibbo threatening to talk for 60 days fiddling while Rome burns. All business In the senate at a standstill, while he talks of the fair practices act? No! About everything from mint juleps to viewing with alarm, or pointing with pride, to this, or that, not relative to the bill before the senate. How long will we be expected to respect such miscarriage of responsibility? This past week members of the house became very perturbed over , a picture sent broadcast over' th'e nation showing ap proximately 175 out of over 400 members of the house in their seats when congress convened. Their excuse was that the pic ture was taken at the time the chaplain was offering the morn ing prayer. A good many mem bers, don't come to their seats until after the morning prayer. Could this be indicative of the laxity apparent in our govern ing bodies? One commentator put it this way, "In the name of God, isn't this a time for prayer?" We are flooded these days with the claims of science for a better world, an easier living world. electronics, plastics, medicine, will smooth out paths, lengthen our days. But with all these, is it impertinent to observe our smart men can't even solve the prob lem of the price and distribution of butter! I have heard many observa tions that our labor disturbances are the result of the workers being coddled and exoectinK something for nothing. But noth ing much is said of the extensive lobbies of Big Business that has had a clause written in their tax bill that makes it incumbent on the government to return sub stantial sums In past war years should Big Business earnings fall Deneatn a certain level. So believe it or not. the mills of "Big Steel" could stay locked ail ot 1848 and still make as much through tax refunds as they did in 1B40. ' Nice work If you can get it. Has anyone heard ot a tax re fund for the workers in 1946, who will not mnko wages ap proximating prewar years? Bis Steel, via the air. professes great sorrow tor the public. Arc not the 750,000 workers and their families quite a segment of the public? And too, a great sympathy for the stock holders who were conveniently forgot ten, and whose stock went to zero during the carly 30's, be cause steel chose to expand, us ing the great surplus gathered In lusn times to pyramid Uiclr holdings. In 16 years lust Drior to 1917 in the Black Towns along the muddy Mahongahala river where atcel ruled with an iron hand, wages rose Is per cent while living soared 22 per cent. In the first war Navy Secretary Dan iels fought unsuccessfully for a reduction in cost of armor plate, and steel prices In general, but the suave Gary intimated that bteel was as big as the govern ment (it was in income) and the government could take it or leave it. So we paid more for steel in our Atlantic coast ship yards than Britain did for U. S. steel laid down in England. When the late Charley Schwab left all that he had to other lands, most journalists eulogized with all the superlatives in their vocabulary, But one, William Allen White df- Kansas said he could describe Schwab thorough ly with a three lettered word that begun with "H" and ended with "G." He, Schwab, as one of the Carnegie originals. typified steel's attitude toward the work ers more than anyone. with the possible exception of Frick, who engineered the breaking of col lective bargaining at the great Homestead strike in 1892. Schwab's motto was "if labor lifts its head, crack it." The writ er knows a little about condi tions when rugged individualism was riding the saddle in those Black Towns, Homestead, Brad dock, McKeesport, the 12-hour shifts. 7-day weeks. 24-hour shifts every two weeks when day and night shifts alternated. He was 16 years old when Carnegie gave a library to Homestead, he was on the night shift, all the night shift was expected to parade in celebration. But this writer felt more like going to bed after 15 hours awav from home. The real rugged Individ ual was the one who could stand up to the grueling hours, low wages, filth and sordid surround ings ot the United States Steel empire of those days. ART BENEDICT.
