An election year ought to be a
(rood one for the people to turn
back to the land of fairy talcs. It
should serve as a balance to keep
the world even, for when elso
would vou find an era, a people
and a world bo tilled with the won
derful creatures of fantasy? The
Wizard of Os, the Mad Hatter, The
Tortoise and the Hare, the Jabber
wockv. The Giant and the Ogre
can be found In their natural state
and habitat during any real good
election year.
But I doubt If It will be any
of these that the little people will
yearn for. For the vision of the
little people is being dimmed and
their outlook twisted and distorted
by the crushing weight of world
events. Like the wonderful looking
glass thst threw back the equally
wonderful images. The glass we
have today is just as mythical as
that one, but the Image it throws
back is neither wonderful, accurate
nor Imbued with magical qualities
of prognostication.
No. I thUik ihe fairy tale the
people would turn today is of fey
origin. Back to the days of the

But If you don't know, a Lepre
chaun is a tiny little Irish mite
(sprite if you prefer, but I take the
more personal view of it) who
spends his life making shoes,
grinding- meal and in many ways
being kind and thoughtful toward
humans who treat bim with equal
dignity and respect. In addition to
these sterling qualities the tiny

offered to buy this column's lunch.
We knew there'd be a catch to
it, but accepted anyway. The catch
turned out to be-porcupine. That's
right, the pincushion rodent of the
genus Erethizon, the fat, ambling
porky of the woods.
Here's the way it is. they said.
The porcupine is the greatest ene
my of the woods there is. These
pesky critters destroy more timber
than anybody ever dreamed of har-
vesting. And the trouble is that no-
Dody realizes it.
When you mention porcupine.
most people think of the old myth
about the porky being the lost
nan's friend the one animal he
f$n always kill and eat for suste
nance.
How many persons that were
lost in the woods ever saved them
selves by killing and eating a. por
cupine? None. Not one. But people
still think they're good for that rea
son and so actually protect them.
The predators that are the natur
al enemies of the norkies are kept
down, and the porkies multiply and
they're eating up our trees. It's
awful.
If It's that bad, we asked mildly,
why don't you kill 'em off.
That's Just it, they said. To keep
the porcupines down we need the
help of every man who enters the
woods every fisherman, hunter,
picnicker and hiker . . . and that's
where you come in.

On Pact
WASHINGTON (fl Gen. J.
Lawton Collins told the Senate Fri

new pacts with West Germany
would give President Truman the
rights to order American troops
into an International army.
"That's out of my field," said
the Army chief of staff.
He was testlfvlnsr before the

ing the President the right to assign
American troops without the con
sent of the Senate.
Collins told the committee there
are no plans "under present condi
tions" of sending more American
troops to Europe.
He was not asked whether those
plans would be changed if world
conditions worsened.
Another witness, Frank Nash, an
assistant secretary of defense, said
the two treaties "make no change
in the status quo" on the contro
versial troops-for-Europe issue, the
Issue that set eft "the great de
bate" last year.
Thus. Nash seemed to line up
with Secretary of State Acheson
who told the committee earlier he
believes the President has the pow
r to send American troops where
ever necessary to protect the Na
tion's security.
Both Collins and Nash urged
swift enaotment of the two pacts,
one a peace contract with West
Germany, the other an amendment

So that is why I think the

And where else could there by a

Wealth without kindliness leads

job of popularizing the porcupine

Well ... uh ... of course they're

for cooking a porcupine easy
enough. Or. better yet. kill one and
cook it yourself. You'll become

The lunch was fair: the talk was I

matter under advisement.
The only trouble is. we've not
been able to pin anyone down to

cooked and ate a porcupine, or if
so. that the dura thing was even
palatable.
A hard working newspaperman
hardly ever has a chance to get
off the pavement, of course, and
we've not been able to conduct the
experiment first hand.
That's the way it stands.
That's the way it stands except
that Just this week Dale Prentice,
whose Western Pine domain in
cludes all of our Southern Oregon
and Northern California country,
showed up with some scientifically
compiled data on porcupine dam
age. He has just taken actual tree
counts in sample areas on the re
production trees that have been
chewed up bv Mr. Porky. On re
production and second growth
trees clear up to 24 inches in diam
eter, here's the percentage of
trees that show porcupine damage:
Greensprings area: 6.5 per cent, i
Thomas Creek area, northwest of
Lakeview: 26 per cent. I
Westside Mill area in Lake Coun-
ty: 28.2 per cent. 1

That's a fact over half the
young growth damaged by porcu-1
nines in some places: Many of the
larcrer trpfs wprn orlrrileri near thlr I
tops. Prentice said. Some of these
showed the dead tops blown out,
some had grown to "umbrella"
shape, none will ever produce a
sawlog.
So, Mr. Fisherman and Woods
man, you in turn are herewith
charged with killing every porcu
pine you come across.
If you have the experimental
turn of mind, and if you fancy
yourself as an outdoors cook, skin
the bugger and cook him and then
give us a report.

approval to dredge the Snake river
near the proposed Hells Canyon

Idaho Land Board Friday, subiect
to approval by Oregon authorities.
In making the application, Atkin
son estimated that dredging opera

Welser, Idaho, to 40 miles down
stream from Welser would yield
approximately 171 million dollars
in gold, monazite and other metals.
Edward Woozley. state land com

would also have to be approved by
Oregon ana would be subiect to
any federal approval necessitated
by statute. Woozley further ruled
that Atkinson could not Issue stock

Since that is an occupation

House To Get
Control Bills
WASHINGTON tfi The House
Friday hod two bills to continue
epirnig Majt-pntc-reni comroia.

1 other approved by Its own House
: Banking Committee.
I The government's present au-
i thorltv for all antl-lnflatlon curbs
expires midnight June 30, two
weeks from Monday
The Senate bill, passed 58 to 18 I
and sent to the House Thursday,
would extend this power eight
months to next Feb. 28. It would
also add a full year until June 30.
1953 to authority for credit checks
and allocation of scarce materials
to Industry.
The House legislation, a one
year extension to June 30, 1853,
was reported favorably bv a 15
to 3 Banking Committee vote. But
It would end all curbs on consumer
and real estate credit, a point at
oods with the one-year extension
of credit restrictions voted by the
Senate.
Rep. Spcnce (D-Ky), chairman
of the committee, said he expects
prompt action on the House bill
debate probably beginning Wednes
day and winding up by week's end.
In final action on the measure
Thursday night, the committee add
ed no major provisions which hud
not previously been approved. Its
most important action reportedly
was a new provision, adopted 17
to 5. to drop a price regulation
requiring
certain reports from
dealers who sell at below-celling
prices.
The Senate action was swift af-
ter efforts to tack on amendments
'bearing on the steel strike were
abandoned. The bill as it stands
! contains a request to President
Truman that he Invoke the 80-day
anti-strike inlunctlon provisions of
tne rail-Hartley law in tne steel
dispute.
The Senate measure generally
would continue control authority
about as Is, but for eight months
Instead of the two years the Presi
dent had asked. The House version
Is for one year. This and any other
conflict between the two bills would
have to be worked out at a Senate
House conference, If the House ap
proves the Banking Committee
version.
One change voted by the Senate
would limit dispute-settling powers
of the Wage Stabilization Board
(WSB), whose steel proposals
evoked considerable criticism in
Congress.
