' Dally, by carrlur pur yeai- If tht People Could Only Speak PRIOR to the beginning of the year 1939, the state of Ore ' eon suffered under a miniature rule of terror by labor racketeers, called goons. There seemed no way of ending the beat-ups and the high handed practices -that is, there seemed no way at the time, short of using force. but working men themselves wrote the finish of the goonsters ; and. In a way the goons never could have foreseen, i A proposed law was placed on I the ballot In the 19.18 election. It ' was called the "antipiekelinfi ; bill." What the proposal provld- cd Is ut this time quite unim ' portant. The Important fact is that this proposed law, which was the most severe measure to be directed against labor organi zations In the history of our stale, was passed by the voters by an overwhelming majority and some of the heaviest totals recorded for the measure were rolled up in the labor precincts of Portland! Until then the goons had been slrongarrnins I he working men. They had been making every man who dared raise his voice wish he had remained silent. The honest working men (lid not like I he slliiallun but tlicy could find no means of lillllng hackof showing how they really fell. They had no way, that Is, until they entered the privacy of the voting hoolh. There they hit, and hit hard. Vole returns by precincts revealed that they w ere overwhelmingly in I lie ma jority but bad not realized It before. The poons read the fig ures and stole sllenlly away. They knew the game was up. They knew they were hopelessly exposed. Apparently the goon disease (hat plagued Oregon is now spreading over the whole coun try, especially in the national de fense Industries. The current strike wave Is too large and loo damaging to defense to be a gen uine labor movement. The voters of America have supported organized labor to the very nth degree these last sev eral years but I hey supported labor not racketeers, There is a rapidly growing public reac tion against these strikes. Pub lic opinion Is approaching Ihe . conclusion (if one may judge ; from hearing average Ameri cans express themselves inform- ! ally I that a better method than i striking must ho found to sell It- disputes in the industries proline j ing essentia materials. It Is time now for voters in all ! slates to have a chance to reveal j the true senllmont of Ihe people ' as was done In Oregon III l!.'S. I When and II Ihe cily of Hose j hurg enjoys some Increase in ; population and business activity I as a result of the operation ol the forest resources of Ihe cmin- ly, we are ready in one Import- I lull respect.

These had Ik-en hoi stuff In Ihe past Per shut fighting, breaking and leni fylng the enemies against whom they were sent. He put thousands ol men l. work smoothing off up area on ; the flat plain bo that the charge of the chariots might be unbroken. A LEX AN PER, sizing up the sit " uation, did two things. He put javelin men and arch ers ahead of his phalanx to kill or wound the horses before the chariots could strike home. He then marched his army obliquely before the Persian host, so as to MISS the ground Darius had so carefully smoothed off. The chariots had to charge PREMATURELY, before their prepared ground was by passed and left and the charge was promptly broken by Alexander's javelin throwers and bowmen. The Persians were discomfited by Alexander's march to the side. A gap appeared In their line. Instantly Alexander's disci plined cavalry charged inlo the gap, breaking and routing the Persian host. When the sun set that night at Arbela, the power of Persia was liKOKEN FOR EVER. DARIUS, smoothing off the pecting Alexander to attack where the Persians were all set to ANNIHILATE him, reminds us Inevitably of France building her Maginot line and expecting the Germans to attack at the point where the ereat Maginot guns were all aimed and ready to blow them into eternity. Alexander and Hitler acted alike in similar circumstances.. Insteading of attacking where the enemy was all set and ready, they attacked where he WASN'T READY, and WON. In its basic principles, war doesn't change much from cen tury to century. Wm. S.

Higbe got into a lot of tight spots against his former Philadelphia teammates but gave up only six hits. A nice Job of relief pitching, three-hit ball for eight innings by Southpaw Melton, gave the New York Giants an 8-3 decision over the Boston Braves. For Ihe Chicago Cubs, the man of the day was Passeau. The right-hander shackled the Cincin nati Reds except during one in ning, Ihe sixth, when they put to gether I heir only three hits for their lone run. The Cubs mean bile made a dozen safeties good for a il-l verdict. ' - ....

He recently rchn quished his exceedingly lucrative position to respond to selective service in the army. The ncwspaiwr boys gave him a big hand. ' Did you hear of Ihe famous young film star, who quit (or postponed) a corpulent salary because selective -service de manded his appearance before an army board? The newspaper boys gave him a big hand. Did you near of the baseball celebrity who gave up his fat pay check w hen his number under se lective service was called, and joined the army? The newspaper boys gave him a big hand. All of these men were paid about ten times as much for one year's effort as you or I could reasonably hope to save In a life time. They are talented, and tal ent is entitled to rich rewards. But I don't mind telling you I am so fed up on the sob stories the typewriter artists have dished out to the public about these men that the mere mention of some he-Cinderella forfeiting his glass shoes because of a vast pulsating surge of patriotism leaves ' me colder than a defeated candi date's handshake. Patriotic? Of course they are. Bui so are the young men who drop the handles of a plow and leave a farm which maybe has paid returns and maybe hasn't; or left a counter, or a desk or the mill or any other job which has yielded Ihem only a bare living wage.

Service in the army looms much more grim to such as these than to the wealthy man, because it's going to be a lot tougher on their families while they are gone and a lot harder for them to get a Job when they get back. " You don't seem to hear so much about this type of selectee, but they arc the ones who will do most of the fighting, if there is any fighting. Not because they will be more willing than their rich brethren, necessarily, but be cause there will be so many more of them. Give most men a typewriter (sure, I use one) and the public eye for a goal, and it seems then that only the spectacular holds an appeal for them. So they ladle out copy about rich men giving up their all to join the army. Let's take down our hair and cry for a while over the poor, or dinary, garden-run citizen, such as most of us are. When he starts drawing Uncle Sam's1 check for $21 each month he won't be able to write one of his own f-r five or six figures to tide him over handily until next payday. He'll borrow six bits from some lucky crap shooter and he glad to get it. A good country can't get along without rich men and their good works, and I certainly admire the worthy ones. But I am getting tired of hearing so d much about them.

Padres Climb Back To Second Place Tie With Seattle San Diego climbed back into a second place tie with Seattle in the Pacific coast league baseball race by thumping the defending champions in three out of four fames over the week-end. It set a new low in the fortunes of the Rainiers by giving the scries to San Diego, five games to tour. The setback was the sec ond in there series for Seattle, and it has been a long time since Emll Sick's habitual pennant win ners have taken it on the chin that hard. Seattle and San Diego divided two Sunday games, along with all other teams in the league. Seat tle took the first game 41, with Gregory turning in . a masterful six-hit mound job without allow ing an earned run. San Diego took the second game 5-,2 as Southpaw Al Olsen blanked the Rainiers until the last inning. Oakland and Sacramento broke even In their Sunday stand. Christoff's homer with a man on base gave the Oaks a 7-6 edge In the nightcap after the Senators had opened with a 5-4 verdict. In each case the deciding de velopment came In the last frame. Christoff's long poke was a scv-cnth-innlng job, and in register ing its success, Sacramento scor ed twice in the ninth to come from behind. Oakland won Sat urday's game, 5-4, on four runs in Ihe seventh. After whitewashing Portland I Saturday, 6-0, on Seats' three-hit pitching, San Francisco had to struggle more than three hours and through ten innings to finish ahead, 10-9, in yesterday's first game. The second went to the Beavers, 4-2, with Speece blank ing the Seals from the first in ning on. Fernandez singled with the bags loaded to win San Francisco its Sunday decision. Before that, however, four hurlors had been called out by each side to pitch to i a total of 80 batters, and Port land made-17 hits to 13 for the Seals. Only twice in seven games did Hollywood succeed in muffling the boom of the seventh place Los Angeles bats and only once in three week end tries. That once was in the opener of yesterday's doubleheader, which vent to the Stars 13-1, Babe Her man, playing regularly at first base for one of the few times this year, connected for a homer, double and single to drive in five Hollywood runs. . .
