Berlin conference that It intends
to Decome "the solely dominating
power on thi European continent."

man question, tne governmeni
said: "
"The (West German) " federal
government, together with the
Uerman people in the 'federal re
public and in the East Zone, is a
unity in deploring the result of the
Berlin big four conference.
The Soviet Union has blocked
the reintroductlon of freedom In
her occupation area and has
tnerewith blocked the reunification
of Germany in peace and freedom.
"The Soviet Union has made it
clear that she wants to control
Germany as a country with im
paired rights. The plans and pro
posals of the Soviet government in
Berlin have taken away the veil
from her resolution to make the
Soviet Union the solely dominat
ing power on the European conti
nent." ,
The statement from Chancellor
added:
"In the name of all Germans
lor whom reunification In peace
and freedom Is the utmost aim of
all their labor, the federal gov
ernment wants to express its grat
itude for the actions of the foreign
ministers of the three Western
powers in Berlin."
The government statement came
after a special cabinet meeting
summoned by Adenauer to map a
dynamic campaign to speed the
unification of West Europe. Offi
cial sources pictured Adenauer as
oelleving that Russia's position
has created a solid opportunity for
linal approval of EDC.

Alberts C. ULLMAN
Ullman Speaks
To Democrats
Albert C. Ullman,' Baker real-.
tor who has announced his candi
dacy for the Democratic nomina
tion for Congress in Eastern Ore
gon, spoke Thursday night to a
large .group of Democrats at the
court house. Ullman stated that
fult development of the Columbia
and Snake Rivers is of basic im
portance to Oregon and to Klam
ath Falls.
The Republicans, he stated, seem
determined to turn Northwest re
sources over to Eastern monopo
lies, but if the Northwest loses
low cost power, it will lose all
chance of real industrial develop
ment. He described the loss of the
Bonneville transmission line to
Copco as a severe set back to
Klamath Falls and the recent lo
cal raise in electric rates as evi
dence of the dangers Inherent in
limited development by private
power. The Bonneville Twstage
stamp rate will bri'jg Industry Into
a community. High power rates
will keep Industry out.
unman stated that the Republi
can administration is unsvmnathet-
ic to tne needs ol the farms. He
pointed to the present, depressed
potato market. Local farmers
are receiving as little as $1.15
per sack, far below the cost of
production. A Republican depart
ment of agriculture, which forces
farmers to sell farm produce on a
iree market, ' wnich in fact is
controlled by wholesalers and re
tailers, can only rum tne farmer
and particularly the small farmer.
There Is too big a spread between
the price that the farmer gets and
that which the consumer has to
pay.
The Administration's Hoover-type
philosophy, the discredited trickle-
down economic theory, he said
has already caused hardship and
more. Ullman stated his belief that
the only sound economic policy is
one that plaoes money in the hands
of the farmers and of the working
men. The prosperity of the coun
ty is assured only if farmers and
working men are prosperous.
Ullman stated his intention to
wage a vigorous -campaign on the
issues of maximum development
of regional resources and a sound
farm policy sympatnetio to farm
era' needs.
