C O U N T Y G R O W TH PREDICTED
K. L. Johnson of Boise, general agent of the
Union Pacific system, told members o f the On
tario city council last week that Malheur coun
ty towns along the main line of the Union Pac
ific have prospects for a bright future.
O f course, the towns included in his predict
ion are Ontario and Nyssa. Because they are on
the mainline o f the railroad and also on a coast-
to-coast highway they will reflect Malheur
county’s growth first. Mr. Johnson probably
bases his prediction on the great agricultural
possibilities o f the county, coupled with the in
creasingly greater use o f agricultural products
in industry.
Only one large site for an industrial plant re
mains vacant on railroad company land in On
tario, Mr. Johnson explained, as a result, the
railroad man urged development o f an indust
rial district. He also suggested that Ontario in
augurate a street improvement program, which
would be geatly appreciated by the packing
house firms already in Ontario and those that
might be induced to locate there.
Nyssa, through the forsightedness o f some
o f its businessmen and city officials, is several
jumps ahead o f the program suggested by Mr.
Johnson for Ontario. Nyssa businessmen have
purchased a large tract o f land south of town
for industrial plants and have formed a comp
any for handling the property. With construct
ion of a siding, ample land for industrial sites
will be available for several years.
The city o f Nyssa is also forming definite
plans for a street improvement program, which
will have to wait until after the war. But the
program will be ready as soon as materials are
available for street work and industrial con
struction.
Prospects indicate that Nyssa will be ready
for the development when it comes. I f it isn’t,
it will suffer the consequences, because the gr
owth is certain to be rapid, with the eyes of
many sections turned in this direction.

A Blushing Matter
Recently I auuresieu an audience
well salted with men of my own
calling: teachers, senool executives
anu men oi degree in loiinai educa
tion. 1 talked about tilings 1 be
lieve in, such as consinu.ional gov
ernment, laws maoe by representa-
uves of the people, tree speech, un-
snacKled faith, anu open competi
tion. After the meeting one of the
educators told me 1 was not objec
tive, did not iiave an open mind.
He was ashamed of me for having
convictions.
What a spectacle 1
was in his eyes, a college president
with my mind made up! 1 spoke oi
representative, constitutional gov
ernment as belter than state social
ism. 1 delended man s right to own
property, to create and operate a
business with a hope of profit, as
better than government management
of industry. " I f we luse these princi
ples," 1 said, "w e will drift to lower
standards, surely as water seeks
its level."
We Need Fixity
Those are facts. Experts in polit
ical economy can prove them to any
open-minded listener. Or a student
can travel the Earth and see for
himself as 1 did. Where docs labor
get the highest wages?
Where
docs agriculture enjoy the highest
living standards? It is in America,
only in America. The reason is our
economic system, not just our re
sources or our people. These facts
need to be taught.
Europe’s outcast
philosophies,
wrong as they are, make progress
in America. Why?
Because too
many of our young men leave col
lege believing they must have an
objective attitude toward everything.
They get no firmness of purpose at
school. In my opinion it is high
time educators got some fixed
principles on vital matters like gov
ernment, morals and religion.

Even the pup has a right to be
completely covered when he's
home. But are you, yourself?
If you have only fire insurance
on your home or your busi
ness building and its contents,
you're far less than completely
covered against the insurable
dangers that may come your
way. Your fire policy should
include "Extended Coverage"
which insures you against loss
from a number of other haz
ards to which your property
is subject. Ask us about it.
