GOOD WORK DONE BY SITTONDudley L. Sitton has resigned as superintend­

ent of the Malheur experimental area after de­veloping the place from a run-down farm to a modern farming property.

The buildings on the farm have been improv­ed, new buildings erected and the land brought back into a productive state since Sitton open­ed the station under the supervision of the Ore­gon State college extension service in 1942.

Some very valuable information has been gained from the work done at the station and increasingly important data will be secured as the extension service has had more time in which to experiment. The station gives the farmers of this area the advantage of know­ledge gained through experiments without a cent of cost to them and without any time lost in attempting to find crops suitable for their properties.Sitton secured some outstanding results in livestock feeding operations and learned some interesting facts relative to the use of fertilizer cn sugar beet land.Mr. Sitton confirms his faith in this section as an agricultural area by starting his farming operations at Cairo junction, a short distance from the Malheur experimental area.

He said “It draws an issue ¿hat will rise again until we decide whether the majority rule is going to prevail In the United States senate. Under the rule, a minority Is empowered to block the will of the majority. Your interest., are violated because you send re­presentatives to Washington to vote upon any legislation that L presented.”Sena.»..r Morse said he challeng­ed 48 other senators to stay with him in session for 24 hours a day as long as necessary to break the i dibuster.Referring again to Lincoln, the senator said his years In the pre­sidency molded as no other the destiny of the nation."Each generation faces its own problems," the speaker stated. "We will survive it If we keep faith in Lincoln's belief in unity.”Senator Morse urged unity of the political parties in perpetuating peace, adding that "There seems no way of winning the peace except through the united nations oganiza- tlon. The alternative is return to selfish nationalism. We cannot jus­tify a course that will lead to another war.”The senator emphasized the fact that this country might not em­erge as victor from the next war and urged that matters now ue cided by economic pressure and military force be decided in the chambers of a world court.“This peace is going to be a costly peace. Concessions will have to be made if economic warfare is eliminated. Unless economic war­fare can be eliminated pospeels for preventing military warfare are

million dollars are only a drop the debt bucket. However, savings are essential in balancing the an­nual budget. I believe the distri­bution of taxes should be much more equitable The liberties en­joyed by free Americans certainly entitles our government to tax in­vestment from those who have a decent standard of living. I be­lieve the majority want to help protect the value of the dollar."We did not take the profit out of war. In fact this country is bulging with blood money. Profit was taken out of war for those sleeping under the white crosses

and those crippled in the conflict. The war Improved the economic condition of millions of people. I think the republican party should stand for a fair tax program to re­duce the national debt."Some think the solution of the la nor strife is passing anti-labor legislation. Let me tell you that anti-strike legisatlon is unwise. However, labor has no right to adopt policies that Infringe on the legal rights of others. Fair wages paid to workers have a direct rela­tion to the price paid to farmers. The interests of labor and the farmers are very much in common.”

SMOOTH OPEN ROADS from farm to market had their beginning in Grange-sponsored legislation. Today countless farm trucks speed their produce over hard-surfaced or well-gravelled Oregon roads.

The movement for better rural roads as a part of the Grange program is as old as the organization. It will continue to be a basic Grange policy as long as the need exists in any part of the State.

Projects of this nature are as vital a part of Grange activities as better agriculture itself. That is why 28,000 progressive farmers belong to the Oregon State Grange—why membership continues to grow—why the Grange is a dominant force for social progress.

Information about the purpose and accomplishments of the Ore­gon State Grange is contained in a booklet "Let's Look at the R ecord” . C on tact your local Grange for copy, or write direct.
