In Oregon Attended By

As Switchmen Return
To Work
The value of the United Nations
as a means of spreading goodwill
among the world’s people, providing
a forum for discussion of ideas and
preventing world conflict was em­
phatically espoused by at a regional
workshop on international relations
and the United Nations in the Nyssa
-little theater” last Thursday night
by representatives of the Oregon
Congress of Parents and Teachers
at a conference held in New York.
As the meeting was opened Rev.
Donald S. Campbell of the Meth­
odist church led the group in sing­
ing several United Nations songs
and Mrs. Campbell accompanied on
the piano. Mrs. W. W. Foster, presi­
dent of the Malheur county P. T. A.
unit, presided.
The National Congress of Parents
and Teachers is particularly that
the P. T. A. become more alert to
international relations and learn
more about the United Nations,
said Mrs. Jennelle Moorehead, presi­
dent of the Oregon Congress ef
Parents and Teachers, “ so repre­
sentatives of the Oregon P. T. A.
attended the conference in New
York".
Mrs. Moorhead, one of 120 per­
sons in the conference group, said
they were able to get conferences
with persons to top executive pos­
itions in the United Nations, much
to their surprise.
The speaker said there is a tre­
mendous need for Americans to be
able to read newspapers and listen
to radios Intelligently and be able
to distinguish between news and
propaganda, “ not only for ourselves,
but because we do Influence foreign
relations” .
A large part of American diplom­
acy is based on what the people
are thinking, said Mrs. Moorhead,
who added that “ the state depart­
ment is continually taking the
temperature of the people; they are
watching the newspapers of the
nation and getting opinions through
opinion polls.
So we do make
foreign policy If we are to have
sound ground on which to work for
peace, the program must be con­
ducted through communication be­
tween peoples” .
Mrs. Moorhead recommended the
exchange of students between na­
tions because it helps people to
understand others.
“ We have a way of living that
is foreign to other people", Mrs.
Moorhead said. “ We don’t have
the least concept of what we have.
Other people can’t realize we can
express our opinions without being
turned in to the police. People who
do not know about us can’t under­
stand us. Person-to-person contact
will do more than all of the millions
spent under the Marshall plan. We
urge children to carry on corres
pondence with foreign children.
Foreigners judge us by the tourists
and judpe us by our mortion pic­
tures, which give a false idea. We
are wctims of a lot o f false propa­
ganda. Foreign people are taught
they are not like us. We are trying
to establish commun icotions so we
can understand other people and
they can learn about us.
E Dean Anderson, world citizen­
ship chairman of the Oregon Con­
gress of Parents and Teachers, said
“ Nearly everyone is as much con­
fused about our foreign policy as 1
am, probably because we are flooded
with international relations. It Is
important that the pe^nle think as
(Continued on Page 2)
So far as Nyssa is concerned,
movement of m&il and freight is
virtually back to normal today, de-
pke a limited restriction due to Che
railroad switchmen’s strike.
The postmaster general relaxed
restrictions Wednesday for accept­
ance of mail o i the restricted cate­
gories, but post offices west of the
Mississippi river cannot accept mail
in the restricted categories for de­
livery east of the Mississippi. Re­
stricted classes o f mail remain the
same as those in the order of Fetor
uary 8, except that there is no
restriction in retard to the weight
of air mail parcel post. The re­
stricted category now includes se-
oond class mail, except daily news­
papers, all itlhird and fourth class
matter and first class over eight
ounces. There is no restriction now
on westbound mail.
All embargoes on freight ship­
ments on the Union Pacific railroad
were annuled today and freight was
moving through Kansas City, Coun­
cil Bluffs and Huntington, Oregon
However, freight can’t be moved
throuth Chicago, where terminals
are still embargoed.
As switchmen have not been on
strike here, Nyssa has been moving
most of its freight, tout cars have
been tied up here because of con­
gestion in other areas. Hundreds
of cars have been sidetracked be­
tween Huntington and points east.
Thomas O. Jones, Nyssa agent, ex­
pects "everything to move out of
the yard today, both east and west” .
Telephone Fable
Line Completed
The Malheur Home Telephone
company completed placing its new
cable Into Adrian Wednesday
The cable is actually in service
to a point one mile north of Owy­
hee comer. As the splicers are able,
they will extend the service toward
Adrian.
Placing of the cable means that
the major construction work has
been completed to Adrian. The work
now is a matter of attending to
minor details and building open
wire lines branching off from the
cable.

Reports on activities of the Mal­
heur County Labor Sponsoring as­
sociation were given at a meeting
held in the office at the labor camp
last Thursday night.
Considerable work has been done
by the association already this sea­
son. Representatives of the associ­
ation have attended labor meetings
in Portland and Washington, D. C.
and have held several meetings lo­
cally for the purpose of arranging
for labor. The association directors
feel that with the full co-operation
of the members enough labor can
be brought into the area to take care
of requirements.
The directors told farmers that
“ The reasons we must have your
full co-operation are particularly
important this year; more so than in
the past few years. Considerable
off shore labor will need to be trans­
ported and housed in the area this
year, which has not been the case
for several .years. To bring this
labor In we must first be prepared
with sufficient equipment to take
care of them. This means we need
to buy a large number of blankets,
beds, and kitchen equipment, and
have sufficient personnel to oper­
ate kitchens, keep payrolls, and dis­
patch the labor in an orderly fash­
ion. To do this we must be ade­
quately financed. We feel that if we
have all o f you participate in our
program this year this can be done.
“ Dues have been set this year at
$1 per acre on all row crop land
It means that if you are having 50
acres o f row crop land, your dues
would be $50. If everyone joins the
association, we will have enough
funds to have a workable labor pro­
gram. If not, then it will be im­
possible to bring in some of this
off-shore labor and care for it, and
you are all aware of how expensive
that can be. When labor is in
short supply, it is impossible to con­
trol prices and keep them in line
with what we can afford to pay.
Fieldmen of the sugar company
have labor association membership
cards. We urge farmers to sign
these cards and make arrangements
for the payment of dues at the time
they sign their sugar beet contract
Arrangements for the payment of
your dues can be made with tht
sugar company fieldmen.
Those
who are not contracting for sugar
beets will be contacted in the near
future as other users of labor. Every
effort will be made to keep an
adequate supply of labor in the val­
ley to take care of all crops".

es for the water year of 1951.
The cost of operation and main­
tenance of the project for 1951 as
estimated by the bureau of recla­
mation will be $4.52 per irrigable
acre within the Owyhee Irrigation
district. In addition to the oper­
ation and maintenance item, there
is included In the assesment a
charge of 10 cents per acre for ad­
ministration expense, 10 cents per
acre for delinquencies In collect­
