Editor and Publish*» Pocatello Minister To Conduct Services At Methodist Church By T. M. B. In recent weeks we have re ceived booklets from many of the major departments of the State of Oregon. Some of these are very elaborate—printed on high grade glossy paper, well-bound with attractive covers in color and with considerable photo graphs inside. They tell what has been ac complished, what they hope to do in the immediate future, and in many cases say they need more money for operations. We haven’t been in Oregon long enough to know if they are required at this time to furnish information for the legislative assembly or if they just happen to come at this time. We have just succeeded in plowing through the report (66 pages) of the commission for re vision of the Constitution of Ore gon.

REV. ROSS J. MILLER ... To Speak to Nyssans ♦ ♦ The Rev. Ross J. Miller will be guest minister during special Len ten preaching services to be held at 8 o’clock each evening March 4-7 at the Nyssa Methodist church. The Rev. Miller was born and raised in Twin Falls, received his bachelor of science degree at Kansas State university and also studied at Boston university and Pacific School of Religion at Ber keley, Calif. He is presently assistant pastor of the First Methodist church in Pocatello and campus minister at Idaho State college. He is a for mer assistant pastor of the First Congregational church in Rock land, Mass. During his Nyssa visit he will discuss the booklet “Romans: Book of Power,” which deals with Paul’s letter to the Romans. Themes of his messages will be: March 4, “The World’s Need of Salvation;” March 5, “The Way of Salvation;” March 6, “The Fruits of Salvation;” March 7, “Implications of Salvation for Everyday Living." It appears to propose placing a lot of additional power in the hands of the governor through his appointments and control of department heads. We feel sure some changes are merited but wonder if the entire docu ment needs to be changed. ing the U. S. are moral deteriora tion, deficit spending and commu nism—and in that order. “I am not a businessman but have sense enough to know that when you spend more than you take in something is radically wrong. “Most of us do not worry about the size of the national debt be cause it is too big to worry about, but I have the old-fashioned con viction that the debt must be paid someday.” • • • • SPRING APPROACHES . . . PLANTING TIME NEARS With the temperature in the 5O’s for several days most of us get to thinking spring has arrived. Some grain has been planted and before another week has passed considerable beet fields will have been seeded. The fancy of some of us will be turned to golf and fishing. BUT it is almost another month until SPRING according to the calendar. • * • * DID YOU KNOW? According to FBI reports, two out of five thumbs raised seeking a ride are on file with the police? The interest on the federal debt runs to $17,690 every minute and only 22 years ago the govern ment operated on what it now pays out for interest? Postage is up for NEARLY ev erybody? Yet the 28 publications of rural electric co-ops rate de creased from one - half cent to one-eighth cent? (They must have known somebody!) No baseball player in the na tion can ever hope to net as much as was paid Babe Ruth 30 years ago? In 1931 Ruth was paid $80,- 000 and had $68,53'5 left after taxes. To have the same amount left today a player would have to receive $960.000! • • • • No one should envy our sena tor and representative in Salem. With an acute money problem, taxes to raise what is considered absolutely essential will be a bit ter pill. And then every agency and most segments of the popula tion want something favorable. Farmers want lower property taxes—the lumber industry wants relief from out-of-state competi tion — retail merchants want to shift part of the burden of the inventory tax to others, and tea chers want more starting pay with more security. Bob Smith said he and Tony Yturri would try to help keep down bad legislation. After read ing some of the bills proposed it might be a full-time job! • * • • CLOSING THOUGHT . . .
