JOURNAL IS INDEPENDENT BUT WILLING TO CO-OPERATE— IS pretty well known, the Journal is pol A S itically independent, and being soley inter ested in the building up of Nyssa and Malheur county, does not feel inclined to take sides for or against any political philosophy. However we do feel the public is interested in learning all sides of the various questions. In an effort to give equal opportunity for discussion of partisan mat ters, the Journal is inaugurating this week a (Col umn entitled, “Political Forum.” Under this heading we intend to publish some of the material sent to us from various party headquarters. We welcome letters from our readers, stating their view on political questions, but we cannot publish letters of personal nature. We hope we can make this column just as the name implies, a political forum; a place where all political parties can have their say. We think it only fair, however, to limit the discussions to a general nature and we cannot be expected to publish articles boosting a certain candidate when such material should come under paid advertising. We want you to accept this as an invitation to participate in our “Political Forum,” as the newspaper belongs to it’s readers. We want to know YOUR viewpoint on state and national policies. ------------------- + ------------------- CCC BOYS MAKE GOOD MORAL RECORD IN OREGON— An analysis of the discharges from the CCC from the period between January 1, 1936 to August 10th, has reached our desk and contains some interesting comparisons. In the entire state of Oregon during that per iod there were only three dishonorable dischar ges, and all there were for theft. Administrative discharges were issued to 125, and out of this total, 104 was for desertion. Other causes for administrative discharges were refusal to work, serious and continued misconduct, unwillingness to abide by rules and regulations and not consid ered worthy of reenrollment. Malheur county only had 8 discharges, four being to accept other employment, three desertions and one other ad- minstrative discharge. Honorable discharges was far in the majority, with a total of 754 leaving the service to accept employment, not desiring to re-enroll, to return to school and for other reasons. The CCC organization can well look with pride on a record of this kind. It is not often that out of thousands working in a group of this kind, there will be only three dishonorable discharges. The record would seem to indicate that the boys in the CCC camps are above the average moral ly. ------------------- * ------------------- CLARK WOOD COMMENTS A red hat, khaki pants and a rifle do not make a deer hunter. — A hick town is not so bad, if you leave it to the hick. New York hoarders are buying platinum certi ficates from a brokerage house. With enough of them, any personable chap ought to be able to land a platinum blonde. A Columbia professor says the average man can tell all he knows in four hours. It’s after ward, though, that he generally has so much to teH. Seeing a lot of red-hatted hunters on the street a local wise-cracker wondered if they were “a bunch of cardinals.” Another explained that they had to have red hats or they’d likely become a bunch of angels.
