NYSSA GATE CITY JOURNAL’S PROGRAM + ------- -------- Co-operative Marketing Association for Malheur Farmers A Properly Equipped Trailer Camp A City Park A Comprehensive Street Improvement Plan BACK TO EARTH (Industrial News Review) T HE United States seems to be turning away from all kinds of “isms” and back to the fundamental theory of our government, namely, a free people and individual opportunity — a government to protect, not to compete with its own citizens in business. To quote the President, “Private industry will have the responsibility of providing the best, speediest and most efficient mass produc tion of which it is capable.” There can be no question of the desire of American industry to cooperate to the limit of its ability with our government to attain unpre cedented heights of efficiency and service to the end that America may swiftly be provided with the best defense system in the world. And there should be no question of the willingness of our public servants, from the executive down, to co operate with private enterprise in order to guar antee the successful completion of that gigantic task. It has taken a world calamity to reawaken our people to the vital role which private enter prise plays in our national life. The men, the machines, the resources, and the technique which private enterprise has de veloped, are our first line of defense. The great industries of America made possible the highest peacetime standards of living for all— and out of these industries, staffed with free men working under a free enterprise system, must come our weapons of defense. The time when we could afford socialistic experiments to the destruction of private enter prise — if we could afford them — has passed. The national defense is the first and foremost duty of the Federal government in its determin ation to perpetuate the American way of life. We must get back to the fundamentals of democracy if we are to survive as a free and se cure people where government is the seivant, not the master of its citizens. this."

E. Beck, Safety Director of Idaho Power Company. These are: (1) Guard your ditches. (2) Instruct your children about the hazards of playing near ditches. (3) Learn artificial respiration. At least one life was saved last year, Beck said, because a mother studied artificial respiration and was able to administer it when her child feel into an irrigation ditch. “It is hoped that the tragedy of drowning can be averted by proper precaution,” he stated. “Sixty thousand pamphlets are now being distributed to residents of southern Idaho and eastern Oregon for the purpose of instruction in artificial respiration, and to remind people of the dangers that exist in our irrigation ditches. Civic organiza tions, safety groups and newspapers are cooperating in this effort.” Copies of the pamphlet describ ing the procedure of artificial res piration are available at the Nyssa Journal office and at the Idaho Power Company office. 1940.

GAME COMMISSION TO HOLD HEARING Regulations for the 1940 hunting season will be formulated next month by the Oregon State Game Commission. The annual hearing on this subject has been set in the Portland offices of the Commission, 616 Oregon Building, at 9 a. m. on July 13th. Questioneers have been forwarded to all sportsmen's organizations with the request that they be filled out and returned to the commission office as soon as possible. Perhaps the most controversial subject to be determined by the Commission will be whether the antlerless deer season in the Mur derer’s Creek district in Grant county will be continued. Open sea son on antlerless deer was provided In a bill passed by the 1939 legisla tive assembly and authority was granted to the Commission either to continue or discontinue the sea son In 1940. No provision was made for providing a limited kill. If the season is left open in this district no change can be made in the pres ent bag limit of one forked horn OPINIONS BY OUR READERS Submitted by readers of The Journal and the opinions may or may not agree with the policy of The Journal. You are invited to send in your ideas on current questions. June 13, 1940. Mr. Louis P. Thomas The Gate City Journal Nyssa, Oregon My Dear Mr. Thomas: Glad to see your editorial “Finish the Job You Are Paid For”. That is just exactly my sentiment. I be lieve Congress should stay here on the job. I think its advice ought to be valuable and people would feel better about it. I hope they are making their sentiments known where it seems necessary. Very sincerely yours, Walter M. Pierce, M. C. Every employe in Oregon or Washington who works in any bur eau or agency in the department of the interior will be required to make an oath that he is not a member of the Communist party or other subversive group. The order has been issued by Secretary Ickes. Either before adjournment now or not later than next session, con gress will be asked to vote for a measure requiring compulsory mili tary training of every physically fit youth of 20 years. Such suggestions in the past have been unpopular, but public sentiment changes and President Roosevelt favors the idea. Threat of war is working transfor mation in the thoughts and cus toms of the American people. Many things will be different a year from today.
