How Much Control?
Las*, week this paper carried ar. editorial on the need
for legislation to control the law.ess element of our
unions It r.as brought more comment back to us than
anything we have earned since taking over the paper
We haven't made direct inquines to get individual re
action but apparently a lot of other people feel strongly
about this matter A ll comments but one have been
favorable for the action called for. or something similar
that will free the honest members of the unions (and the
public) from the control of lawless leaders
The one dissenting vote merely said h<:- could not go
along with all of it We are not trying to fool ourselves
with the idea that all people agreed with us
There
are people who, if you criticize the unions in any part or
respect, disagree with, you in whole— these are like the
people who are so narrow that they can see nothing but
good in their own political party and nothing but bad in
the other one You will also find another group of people
who feel that they should share in the accumulations of
all other people who are better off financialv than them
selves— a sort of “ SOAK-THE-RICH and DIVIDE-THE-
S P C IL S " class
One pitiful part of the whole thing is that our legis
lators are taking their stand on labor legislation from a
political viewpoint and not from what they really know
is right and fair And as usual it is the public who w ill
suffer
As of Tuesdav. there were 500.000 steel strikers idle,
more than 100.000 non-strikers of allied industries who
were forced out o; w r . by the strike, the steel industry
was losing 300 million dollar» worth of business each
week, the idle workers wpre 1 - * 70 million dollars in
weekly pay. ar.d McDonald, he;
e * e steel workers
union, was gone to
Dn"t the picket
He said he
was not going to re tiate with the “ second-string” quar
terback. R Cor~ad ^
per. who was selected as the chief
negotiator for 12 ~ a ,o r steel companies involved It may
be that McDonald has seen how successful Khrushchev
has been in insisting on meeting with the “ top-man.” and
so he won't condescend to talk to a mere vice president
of one of the companies.
The outcome of this strike and the pending labor leg
islation are of great importance t you. M r Citizen, and
the principles involved are much more vital than the
mere price spirals that usually occur.
1958 was a very bad year in the U. S. automobile in
dustry Sales were lower than anticipated and far lower
than 1957, with but one exception—American Motors,
with its Rambler car. whose sales increased 80 percent
over the previous year.
American Motors, in setting its 1958 record, spent six
million dollars on advertising. More than two-thirds of
this was for newspaper ads and absolutely nothing for
TV Other car manufacturers spent large sums on TV
It w ill be argued that 1958 was an unusual year and that
these figures are meaningless, but another factor to dis
pute this was that the one showing the most loss was the
one which spent the largest proportion of the advertising
budget on TV.
TV and radio are great mediums but nothing can
supplant the newspapers, when it comes to selling your
products TV and radio are primarily for entertainment
and are not designed for information or education. They
are ideal for telling you about the weather, the current
livestock market, and short newscasts But you must be
at a particular place and at a particular time to see or
hear the message they have to offer And usually vou
must grasp the message the first time it is offered to you
or it is long gone The old reliable newspaper tells you
who has what to sell, the price, and when it is available
And. if you are too busy to read it when it arrives, it w ill
wait until you come in from the field
It won't fade
out in five seconds, and you can refer to it over and over
for the needs of the entire family
The merchant who does not advertise when business
is bad because he says he can’t afford to. and who doesn't
when it is good because he doesn’t need to is like the
Arkansas Traveler with the leaky roof needing repairs—
he just doesn’t get the job done

Th.« rambling column has been
Dm. tied the part two weeks
thought you ought to kr.cna- it)
and I car truthfully say there has
beer no local agitation to revive
it
But there was ONE request
from, out of town, sent by word-
:?-m,cuth. that it be placed back
in — and brother that one was
enough'
The nice thing about one of
these columns is that you can
say something outr.ght question
it. or merely hint and let the
reader do the guessing If you get
collared ’ on any part of it you
ran always give them the old
"Can’t you take a joke" routine
ONE reason for the omission of
the column :r. the past has beer
the trouble of selecting materia,
for ,t There has been so much
transpiring that I wonder how
any country editor selects what
he think« his readers should
know, and would be interested
to learn
Are your people pri-
marily interested :n world events
or m the local movements of them
acquaintances’ Should Khrush
chev be invited over here, should
he address our congress fin spite
of the wishes of Sam Ravbum)
or should he merely address the
U. N. assembly?’
Or why
didn't the paper rur. that wedding
picture of my daughter, full-
length the -way we gave it to
them’ ???
The nights sure have been
pleasant recently, and the days
haven't beer, bad
It never gets
hot here fexcept sometimes in the
summer.) The most of the gra.n
in the area has been harvested,
potatoes are about to reach a
peak, and hunt.ng season is rapid

Game commission says the pheas
ant population w ill be below their
estimate, and other upland game
will be down m Malheur county
It also notes that the coyote popu
lation is on the increase here in
the county. But that can be most

Note to PARENTS WORRIED
ABOUT A COLLEGE EDUCA
TION FOR THE KIDS— You can
relax ar.d quit worrying about it
now . . . Banks, states, and the
Federal government are making
loans to students for their educa
tion. It is called "Learn Now. Pay
Later From Your Earnings" and
,s growing in leaps ar.d bounds
In 1955-56 these loans totaled
about 40 milion dollars, with only-
one half the available money used
In 1959-60 the amount is expect
ed to reach 120 m.liion and 10
years from now will be more than
1 billion dollars

Just tries to see the joke:
He’s always finding little ways
O f helping other folk
He sees the good in everyone
Their fault he never mentions:
He has a lot of confidence
In people's good intentions.
No matter if the sky is gray.
You get his point of view;
And the clouds begin to scatter
"M AN BEHIND THE S M ILE "—
Ar.d the sun comes breaking
through.
I don't know how he is on creeds.
I never heard him say;
You’ll know him if you meet him.
But he’s got a smile that fits his
And you'll find it worth your
face

And he wears it every- day
To cultivate the fr.endship of
If things go wrong he won't com
