Major Steps For
Reconstruction
Taken Norway

OSLO, Norway July 10. - The
confidence vested in the new coal
ition government of Prime Minis
ter Einar Gerhardsen by all the
significant political elements in
Norway received its fullest practi-
cal expression this week when the
Storting voted to give the Gov
eminent full authority to make
all expenditures necessary to make
the reconstruction program effec-
tive at once, though the budget
won't be ready for many months.
Only eight of the $50 members
of the Storting voted against the
unprecedented grant of financial
power. To provide the Govern
ment with funds Immediately, the
Storting approved a collection of
taxes and revenues for the fiscal
year 1945-1946 on a basis of the
rates which were effective in 1914
and 1915. The King was also en-
powered to make minor changes
in these rates as dictated by cir
cumstances.
The most important instrument
placed in the hands of the Gov
eminent was the right to borrow
to meet current expenditures up
to S3OO,OOO,OOO Fifteen hundred
million crownS). Such loans may
be made at home or abroad.
It is the first time in the stor-
tings history that such an extraor-
binary mandate has been given
the Government Never before
has an entire financial program of
the Government been approved be-
fore a detailed budget was pre-
scented: never before has a King
been authorized to collect funds to
meet expenditures before estimat-
cd costs were approved
Spokesman for all parties agreed
to the need for starting rehabili-
tation work, so urgent extraord-
mary measures We're mandatory
The authority given to the King
to make certain changes in the
tax and revenue laws refers to
certain strictly Quisling and Ger
man revenue provisions inserted in
the general tax legislation last
year for the sole purpose of pro-
viding the Qu'slings and Germans
with funds for their own purposes.

Mount Rainier

REAT and ma jestic in your silent power
= Looking heavenward from snowcapped tower
You stand, where pine-trees reaching to the skies
Line roads to Sunrise and to Paradise
Around your feet tender flowers blooming
Where snowy waters rush and bears looming;
Where deer watching from behind the trees,
The crowds enthralled by mountain sceneres
From harps and flutes in tune with westwinds humming
While from afar is heard the Pipers call
Inviting fairies to his fancy ball.
The legend tells of precious Jewels hidden
Within your walls, where humans forbidden,
Until, perchance we find the magic key
By which open up the treasury.
Proud Mount Rainier! You the browning glory
Of all the chapters in creations story;
A beauty sublime where only silence speaks
When sunset gories your mountain peak.
And standing here in ecstasy behodng
The matchess before your eyes unfolding,
We feel the Presence of unseen power,
An urge to worship in this sacred hour.

West Coast Fights TO Hold
War Time Industrial Gains
BY DOUGLAS LARSEN
NEA Staff Correspondent

LOS ANGELES - With West
ern optimism, the Pacific Coast
states are determined to con-
solidate and improve their war;
time industrial gains.
A tour of California, Wash
ington and Oregon reveals ro-
bust confidence in the prosper
Gus future of the West, from
the common laborer who mi
grated here to state officials and
industrial leaders.
Some eastern circles had fear
ed widespread unemployment
which would occur in Califor-
MIA. especially, when its fabu-
lous airplane plants and ship
yards closed. Probably more
workers migrated here for war
jobs than to any other state.
But the unemployment problem
so far Is not serious.
Thousands of workers laid off
when Government contracts
were cancelled are being COB
bled up by man-hungry agricul-
ture, mining, and other peace
time industries. In fact. these
employers aren't getting the dis
charged workers fast enough.
Many workers are taking va
cation, living on their savings,
looking for an attractive perma-
nent job. Only trickle is flow
ing back eastward to their home
states.
A riveter from the Douglas
plant in Santa Monica who had
just received his last pay check
put it this way:
Leave California Not me.
I've saved enough to keep me
going for a year. I'll look

want to do and everything is
back on its feet. There are plen-
ty of possibilities here. More

An owner of drug store in
Beverly Hills said: We've seen
the end of domination by the
East Coast. With Europe in ruins
and the Japs licked once and
for always, trade will shift to
the Pacific. We're prepared to
take it,"
In 1914 California led all
states of the nation in cash farm
income. With the advances in air
cargo transportation which are
expected, farmers here will find
an expanding market for their
fruits and vegetables.
But the big businessmen of
the west are counting most on
industrial expansion. And what

The concept of the German
superman and the Fuehrer prin-
ciple are defined as criminal
doctrines. The indictment de-
MES the Nazi contention that
any political party has the
right to destroy its opponents
and to dominate the entire
political structure of nation.
Elimination of free elections,
purging of unsympathetic civil
employees and destroying free
dom of the courts are condemn
ed, along with terroristic tactics
and brutalities of the party.
Actual war outrages are list
ed specifically. The actions in
clude such incidents as the sink
ing of the American steamship
Robin Moor in the South Allan
tic by a Nazi submarine in the
spring of 194l, the slaughter OF
American prisoners in the Bat
tie of the Bulge, and the Da-
