You’ll Get Better Streets The proposed Malheur county road program does more than just build and repair the farm-to-market roads. Nyssa and the other cities of the county will also benefit. Of the 10-mill, five- year levy, one half of the tax revenue derived in the city will be returned to the city for street improvements. The other one- half will be spent on roads leading to the city.

This advertising sponsored by Malheur County Court LABOR AND MANAGEMENT [ny man can consider himself truly privileged who has had the opportunity of speaking with and to nearly 100,000 o f his country We must restore the confidence of ltbor and management in their government by a definite and consistent labor policy fairly and impartially administered. We should strengthen the processes of collective bargaining and increase to a maximum government mediation of industrial disputes, strengthen the agencies of conciliation and mediation, and reduce to a minimum government compulsion. We should then build up a real labor department and appoint the best available Secretary of Labor, stand back of him, let him serve as the administration's repre- , tentative in dealings with labor and management and don't let people go around behind his back to overrule him. men within a period o f slightly more than two weeks. This privilege has been mine, here in Oregon. Your kindness and consideration to me I shall never forget You have been the most gracious, most hospitable people a man could possifcly meet. I feel we have become friends. Each day I have endeavored clearly and forth rightly to present my views on the many issues con fronting us all. VETERANS Veterans are entitled to every possible help that government can give them and in my state—as in yours—we've tried to do just that. We must encourage them to start new businesses and bring to them the personal counseling service of a<! agencies of government to help them meet their problems, from jobs to health and welfare. We must also provide our veterans with the broadest possible educational opportunities so that they can re-establish themselves in a peace-time economy. I have a steadfast faith that we can successfully resolve our problems, here at home—and abroad, that America can and will go forward as a happy, pros perous, free nation in a world at peace. As I have visited with you, I have stated, as clearly as 1 know how, my convictions o n : • GOVERNMENT EXPENDITURES COMMUNISM IN THE UNITED STATES I am unalterably, whole-heartedly and unswervingly against any scheme to write laws outlawing people because of their religious, political, social or economic ideas. It is a violation of the Constitution of the United States and of the Bill of Rights. It is nothing but totalitarianism itself. I know from many years experience in enforcement of the law that the proposal would not work and instead would advance the cause of Communism rapidly both in this country and all over the world. I am against it because it would drive the Communists underground. Let’s keep them out in the open so we can know who they are and what they support—and then beat them at the polls. With a vigorous national government that really hates Communism and knows something about it, we can proceed to convict them when they break our laws. We can completely discredit the Party and deprive it of its effectiveness. We can beat Communism in the good American fashion without undermining the liberties of our people. We must never outlaw any person for his individual beliefs. Those are the methods of Hitler and Stalin. They must never be permitted to happen in America. POWER AND RECLAMATION Hydro-electric power and irrigation are urgent and essential for the healthy growth of the Pacific Northwest and I urge that they go forward steadily and rapidly. All sound projects can be honestly self-sustaining and self-liquidating. On this basis, public appropriations are to be regarded as investments in America's productive future. The same is true of needed flood control and navigation projects. River development should be on a regional basis. Such large-scale multiple-purpose projects as those for the drainage basins of the Missouri, the Columbia and the Willamette are a natural responsibility for the Federal government. I propose an aggressive and a continued orderly program of developing all such major resources for the benefit of the Nation, including McNary Dam, which will generate nearly a million kilowatts, and Foster Creek and Hungry Horse and such others as may be feasible. This also includes the works for the control and harnessing of the Willamette River which were interrupted by the war. In these resources some sections are more richly endowed than others, but this is not a sectional matter. Anything that builds a bigger West builds a greater and stronger America for all our people. It Is fundamental in our free society that government should only perform those functions that are essential to the actual operation of government. It is also fundamental that taxation should be kept to the absolute minimum that is necessary to pay the cost of essential government services and to make payments toward the national debt. Every unnecessSry expendi ture means a larger tax collection out of the nation’s production, and therefore, a lower standard of living for the people as a whole. I am personally convinced that expenditures of our sprawling Federal government departments, bureaus, and agencies can be reduced. EDUCATION I have a deep consciousness of the place education holds in the future of this nation. No state, no community, is better than its schools. Half of a child’s waking hours are spent in school. Here the child gets the best possible help to become a useful citizen. Nothing contributes more to the improvement of our citizenry than does education, for schooling develops human resources which, in turn, produce wealth and contribute to human happiness. Show me the nation with the best system of public education and with the greatest schooling in the humani ties and I will show you the nation with the greatest pros perity and with the soundest and happiest national life. PEACE AND NATIONAL SECURITY 1* It is elementary that we must build up our national military strength to the point where no nation on earth will dare to attack us. But arms will not win the peace. 2 . We need a first-rate intelligence service so that we can be informed about what is going on in the world. 3 . We should start, and start now, effectively to combat the evil propaganda of Communism. 4 . We need to bring to China material help and, even more important, renewed proof of our continuing deep friendship. 5 . We must use our great European recovery plan—the so-called Marshall plan—to encourage the development of a United States of Europe. 6 . We must make up our minds that we have to wage peace with all the energy and determination and force with which we waged war. • We must keep cool. Remember this is a war of nerves. The object of a war of nerves is to make us angry and provoke us into doing foolish things. 7 AGRICULTURE I am deeply convinced that agriculture must be maintained on a par with other elements of our population. An important job for the next Congress will be to modernize our present parity formulas to provide a true measure between farm prices and farm costs. This should include consideration of the cost of hired farm labor. In modernizing parity we should also aim at a program which will correct the present alarming decrease in our flocks and herds to prov iile us with the strongest possible animal agriculture, as well as protect our basic production of cereals and fruits and vegetables. I ntil this complete long-range farm and price support program is completed, present pnee supports should, of course, be continued. The interests of agriculture and industry are always inter twined. If one is prosperous the other will be prosperous. Depression for one inev itably means m isery for the other. But there is no need to fear depression at all if we can get ahead with a creative development of our natural resources. The inter-dcpcndencv of farm and factory is nowhere better shown than in the Northwest's greai program of conservation and utilization of its water resources for the deveiopme.it of power and the iccUniuuou of land. In this critical hour the mantle of world leadership has fallen on our shoulders. Our Republican Party alone has the faith, the practical competence and the devotion to peace to meet the desperate appeal of free men everywhere for leader ship. Our country is being challenged in the world today by cold force and ruthless political opportunism. We must be strong enough to be able to stand up boldly and fearlessly when we are threatened with brute force. But force alone will never win the ultimate decision. If the world is to be saved from totalitarian barbarism, it must be saved by the skillful use of peaceful means, by the triumph of ideas and ideals. In the winning of the peace every advantage is on our side. The Republican Party will wage and win the peace by a new, high devotion to that cause, by skill and understanding and everlasting faith in the cause of human liberty.
