NEWS FROM BIG BEND •.............................. BY GOLDIE ROBERTS THIS LAD MAY NOT HAVE BEEN THE tallest or largest in the Nyssa rodeo parade but he was among the ‘speediest’ ones. In fact, the Journal photographer tried to take a shot of him and another youth driving a similar ‘four-wheeler’, but found that it just couldn’t be done. The unidentified lads were stationed to ‘bring up the rear’ of the parade and it supposed that their ‘speed-demon’ noise might have frightened some of the numerous horses in the line-up. - Journal Photo.

From the viewpoint of his own career which has taken him from political science professor, to Governor of Oregon, to U. S. Senator, Mark O. Hatfield, in his political autobiography cautions both politician and citizen against the dangers of the “easy answer.” “Layman and political newcomer often misjudge the degree of difficulty in legislative problems and are inclined to overlook the hidden complexities and settle for the simple solution. “This same error of oversimplification may sometimes be found at the opposite end of the scale, in the very highest councils of government, not for lack of contact with the inexpert but sometimes wiser public,” states Senator Hatfield in his book detailing his career. suppressed the population or Titled “Not Quite So Simple,” until it has remedied the causes it was published on July 12 by of the revolution — the long- Harper & Row. festering political, social and One of the first in political economic injustices,” writes life to speak out against our Senator Hatfield. involvement in Vietnam, Sena The United States commit tor Hatfield believes that the ment in Vietnam has not ser war has been one of the areas ved to defend the freedom of which has been subjected to the South Vietnamese people but oversimplification. rather to help preserve posi Not only was the Administra tions of power for their oppres tion guilty of campaign misrep sors, says the Senator. resentation, but they have con To those who have censured sistently distorted the true the criticsof the Administration nature of the conflict in South east Asia, says Senator Hat field. Although Ho Chi Minh is a Communist, his primary thrust and appeal to the Vietnamese has been on the basis of nationalism. There is little con vincing evidence to support the idea that Ho’s forces were primarily motivated in their fight against the French, by a desire tospreadCommunism. More clearly the facts indi cate that the Vietminh were motivated by a desire to rid Vietnam of foreign influence and to unify it under one govern ment, writes the Senator. The current conflict was caused by the refusal of South Vietnamese leaders to provide the people with the kind of gov ernment they wanted. Because of this, the war was, and still remains basically a civil war. Even if Ho withdrew all his troops, today, and stopped sending supplies to the South, the social injustices which caused the South Vietnamese people to take up arms against their government would not have been eliminated. “The guerrilla war will con Olympia Brewing Company.

FIRST THURSDAY, JULY 18, 1968 policy on the war the Senator states, ‘‘Those who question the loyalty of the dissenters often subscribe to a perverted patriotism based on a commit ment to ‘my country right or wrong.’ I would caution these people not to confuse patriotism with blind endorsement of bad policy . . . I am sure that among the responsible dissen ters there is none who would not prefer to be supporting our President's policies inatimeof national crisis. We don’t enjoy being forced to conclude that our government is not being honest with its citizens.” Having come to politics from the academic world, the Senator was sqon made aware of the contrast between the abstract solution and practical applica tion. Relating in his book the variety of issues and problems which have confronted him throughout his years in politics, Senator Hatfield continually stresses the importance of understanding every aspect of a problem and for refusingcom promises born of political expediency. - Harper 4 Row Publishers.
