The McDonalds appealed to Ells worth, who recommended that they file suit In court. For 20 months the government attorneys stalled the case on technicalities. Tien a new solicitor took over In tile Department of Interior. Con gressman Ellsworth -filed a six page brief In which the case was outlined, a request made that miss ing' elements of the files be re covered, and that Impartial exam ination be given. Tills was done and patent was Issued, s Obviously, mining laws were completely ignored by government bureaucrats. Legitimate claimants were caused unnecessary expenses in excess oi $30,000. ' This case is now being made a political football. It is being twist ed and distorted for political pur poses. Candidates who will resort to such 'tactics are, In our opinion, undeserving of public trust. NHUBERGER AND ALASKA I wish to commend you on your articles that are dally a part ol your excellent newspaper. I es pecially enjoy your articles on the Neuberger campaign, which is cer tainly a fiasco If there ever was one. I am a new citizen to your com munity and will be in business here in another thirty days. 1 do not want to think that I am living among people that are gullible enough to elect a man that prom ises in one day's "commercials" to vote in Congress for most every thing, and anything, to get a vote; give everything away, conserve everything, cut taxation, increase services, and so on and 011I You see, I have been an Alaskan many years and remember when Mr. Neuberger was an aide to General O'Connor at Skagway In 1942-43. As you no doubt know. Oeneral O'Connor was not one of the most popular generals, and, for the most part, all that we could see that Mr. Neuberger contributed to the war effort were articles pub lished in national magazines to his personal profit and to help promote Mr. Neuberger's interests while traveling at Uncle Sam's expense The articles were well - written,. but their content was as ridiculous to Alaskans as they were enter taining to people In the States, .. The citizens of Oregon should be proud of the representation they have sent to Congress in the past many years and even though they were at times very conservative, or very outspoken, or very radical in their views, they kept the re spect of the rest of the nation. (You bet the Alaskans would not trade Secretary McKay for Secretary Ickcs! ) I, for one, want to see the Oregon people continue to send rncn of stature to Congress. ' There has been a lot of talk about the Alaskan election. You might be interested to know one ex-Alaskan's views. The main can didate was Delegate Bob Bartlett. who won over his opponent, a very little - known woman candidate. Mr. Bartlett is one of those indi viduals who should not be classed with the common "politician." "as he Is truly in the "statesman" class. (Of which America has too few.l I would say he polled as many Republican as Democratic votes and is head and shoulders BILLBOARD above political parties.. As for the rest of the election. It went Demo cratic this, time for the same rea son it went Republican last time with the hope that a new Con gress will vote statehood for Alas ka. Alaskans have taxation and government controls without rep resentation and as the majority of the people want statehood, they will continue to vote against any parly that controls Congress and does not give them statehood. (You cannot blame them they are Americans, after all.) Thank you again for your ar ticles. I am glad to know there is one editor that has "guts" enough 10 publish- his opinions as he sees them and ambitious enough to fer ret out the facts and get them in print where common "Joe Dokes" like myself can read them. Keep up the good work! Ken Chatwoort ' - Gen. Del. Klamath Falls, Oregon By BILL JENKINS Cars are always a fascinating ; subject to us Americans. And to j everyone else . I suppose: But I ' learned ouite a lot from a imie. booklet that recently came across mv desk from the Automobile Manufacturer's Association. , I learned, for Instance, that there are 70 million drivers of cars, I trucks and busses in this country, that 35.000,000 families own cans, and that the total mileage for the year just past was half a trillion miles. . ! To insure these vehicles we i spent more than three billion dol-1 lars (my policy always looks ati least that big when it comes in) with insurance companies. i Highway users paid out 86,000,-! 000.000 in taxes, too. : Last year, for instance, .we pro duced over six million passenger cars in this country. Most of which manage to get in front of me any time I'm in a hurry to get any where. And, finally, - n the first 54 years of this century we have produced a total of 138 million motor ve hicles. No wonder the highways ate crowded. It is fairly common knowledge that If you put salt in with boil ing eggs It will prevent the egg cooking out of the shell in case it cracks. Or at least I've always been led to believe that and see no reason to doubt it now. ' But there are number of others ; that I'd like to try. For instance that belief that planting garlic in among your flowers will keep moles out. What if you happen to have a few moles around the gar den that like garlic? . - Another one that I have not tried to date is the idea of sticking a Christmas' tree in a pail of water sweetened with sugar in order to keep it fresh longer. I guess It's a pretty well explod ed theory that stringing a hair rope around your sleeping -bag will koep snakes out. And that's a hoary old belief I hate to see go. (Incidentally, I wish , some one I would discover , a way to keep Iwood ticks out a guy's whe:i i he's sleeping out in the woods. 1 I lain always a little disappointed when I hear that a hounds tooth : is not clean. Medicos tell us it is I usually highly coated with germs of various kinds. I'm inclined to douot this a little. My dog makes la practice of opening up various cuts on me almost every day and I havens come aown wmi -thing yet. Except loss of blood, i Anvway. In this age of srience, !the old beliefs are still with us. i And a. few new ones cropping up that sometimes work and some- WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1954 times don't but that at least don't have to be all fogged up with mathematical formulae and scten. tific wordings. As the guy once said, the old things are best. He was probably referring to money, cheese, wine, whiskey and things like that,) Not too long ago there was quite a tlurry about crows in the news. Old Crow was being used as an ad, a white crow was the cen. ter of a fight in England and sev. eral other small Items turned up. I As far as we know the only good j to come out of it was a gift front 1 an unknown lady to a friend of hers who owned a crow named Ole' I Crow. She sent him a lady crow jfor a bride, crowesa by the name I of Oleander. POET'S CORNER JUVENILE QUESTIONS By Orpha Collins He asked about this and he asked about that But tho question that drew the last spark: "Do you think that the dogwood trees are so named Because they really do have a bark?"
