Worth Match His Deeds
SOLDrERS arc supposed to
light not talk. Eloquence,
generally speaking, has little
place as men face cannon-hurled
death. The doer, not the sayer,
wins the medals and decorations.
Yet time and again men have
leaped to victory with a cry on
their Hps. Phrases have fired a
nation "Remember the Alamo,"
"Surrender, hell, we haven't be
gun to fight," "Give me liberty,
or give me death," "Dam the
torpedoes, full speed ahead."
Abraham Lincoln at Gettys
burg thought "the world will'
little note, nor long remember
what we say here, but it can nev
er forget what they did here."
Ills words still ring, but the battle
rages only In history books. Now
we have a man whose words
equal his daring, whose j phrases
slash as did his men on Batumi.
Here's proof that the MueArthur'8
magnificence shines not only on
the battlefield: '
"There shall be no compromise.
We shall win or we shall die." To
the Australian Parliament.
"Men will not fight and men
tvlll not die .unless they know,
ivhat they tire fighting and dying
tor." Assuring reporters in Aus
tralia he would hold back only
news vHlunble to' the enemy.
"I came through and I shall re
turn;" Arriving In Australia',
lrom the Philippines.
"Take every other normal pre
caution for protection of the head
quarters, but let's keep the flag
flying." Reply to officer Insisting
flag should be removed from Ma
nila Army headquarters.
"Today, Jan. 30, lfll'i, the anni
versary of your birth, smoke
bogrlmcd men covered Willi the
marks of battle, rise from the
foxholes of Butaan and the bat
teries of Corregidor to pray rev
erently that God may bless Im
measurably the president of the
United States." nirthday message
to President Roosevelt.
"Only those are fit lo live who
are not afraid to tile." To a West
Point graduating class.
"This Job will last a long time."
After marriage to Jean Falrcloth.
"I shall lead the patrol to let
the boys know that somebody at
headquarters Is willing to go Willi
them." Reply to officer In 1!)1H
who tried to keep him from going
over the top.
"Americans never quit." Ordei
lug U. S. boxing team back into
competition at lies Olympic
Games after coach withdrew
team in protest over a decision.
"Very well, If we lose ,10(10 men,
we lose 3001." When warned in
France that a certain operation
would result In 3000 casualties.
"I shall keep (he soldier's
faith." Assuming command of
United Nations' forces in South,
west Pacific.
Here tlien slunds a man who
can and has and will back up his
words with his fists. The enemy
know3 the sting or those fists and
has felt the lash of that tongue.
Yet It can be as gentle as a moth
it. He talks with the simplicity
of Lincoln, but those common,
stralghtroi-ward words drive
deeper than the oratorical blasts
of a hundred sunshine patriots.
As an Australian reporter pu!
It, "He Is not only a first -cliuw
thinker and Tighter but a fine
speaker. When you hear him,
you may not rememlier a word lie

lie infused his forces with such a
heroic fighting spirit."

the office of price administration
has suggested that bakers stop
slicing bread. This proposal pur
portedly is offered as a means of
saving time, labor, and paper.
If the prospective bride Is well
aware that she may have to slice
bread, she'll think again about
marrying that lad before he goes
off to war. Why, one of these days
they might even ask her to bake

says (for public consump

He adds:
"British influence in India in

They've been listening, of

secretary of war and now FDR's
personal minister to India, has
had talks with Pandit Jawaharlal

president, of the All-India Na

What they talked about Is not
divulged.
He is said to bear a letter from
FDR of undisclosed contents to
an unidentified Indian leader. It
Is undisclosed whether he has yet
delivered It.
His talks arc described as "ex
ploratory," which all horse-traders
will understand.

WASHINGTON, D. C, April S
A few days ago one of the dol
lar a-year men of WPB Boss Don
ald Nelson announced that small
business should close up shop and
not waste the economic strength
of the nation; the war effort
should be In the hands of big
business. Originally, Nelson had
some such Idea but he has chang
ed with his discovery that produc
tion must be increased. The
United States senate has now at
tempted to solve the problem by
setting up a corporation (within
WPB) devoted exclusively to
small business and authorizing
$100,000,000. If It works many
little Industries In the northwest
will be saved .from extinction.
Unlike RFC, which expects
loans to be repaid and Jesse
Jones asks for good security, the
terms for small business will be
more liberal. It ,is conceded by
the senators that many loans will
never find their way back to the
treasury. Considering the waste
and excessive profits now going
on In the war effort, the small
losses to be incurred will be neg
ligible, and hasn't Nelson said to
produce and forget the cost?
The new corporation will act1 as
a prime contractor and let sub
contracts to little industry and
itnese small snops win oe given
the same attention as the big cor
porations; the corporation can

j Salvation of Garages
! This new set-up will be a bene

going out of business because of

i closes that there are many garag
:es with welding units, lathes,
shapers and grinding machines,
all tools that are needed and can
be used. Many of the major lum
ber operators have their own
railroad equipment and their me
chanics are qualif jed and equipped
to turn out innumerable articles
requiring steel and other metals
and they can make gondolas and
freight cars now badly needed.
Scores of metal working shops
scattered from one end to the
other of the three states are cap

able of manufacturing something
for an airplane, it only bolts and
screws. The small foundries,
stove works, plywood plants and
some of the pulp mills can do war
work. All of these industries have
been ignored in the past, for pro
curement officers of army and
navy preferred to do business
with some 100 of the largest cor
porations in the United States.
Injustice Corrected
Truman senatorial committee
investigating the war effort, af
ter a study of the bomber and in
terceptor factories of the west
coast, charged that delay in pro
duction of these badly needed air
ships is the fault or failure of
responsible government to give
subcontracts to several hundred
small shops which make the thousand-odd
necessary parts entering
into construction; the govern
ment procurement has been more
anxious to expand the assembly
plants and overlook the shops
that make the gadgets. Senator
Mon C. Wallgren of Washington
signed this report.
For months a northwest little
factory, employing 600 workers,
begged for a loan of $500,000 to
expand. This factory has been
offered $1,000,000 of orders for a
certain airplane part; other air
plane corporations offered addi
tional orders. Nothing happened
although no fighting plane can go
into the air and drop a bomb
without this item the little indus
try can produce. Another north
west concern, ready to turn out
small boats for the navy or make
machinery, could get nowhere
when its president came to the
national capital and offered his
services. The maker of those
heavy logging trucks which can
go anywhere in the forests and
emerge on the highway with tons
of plywood logs, offered to build
these trucks to carry guns. He
was turned down and a big east
ern corporation which never
made a logging truck was given
the contract.
The small business corporation,
authorized by the senate, will
stop this sort of attitude on the
part of the government.
Mining Will Be Aided
Industry is being appealed to
"to do more," but the unending
line of business men who come to
Washington return home empty
handed and many are compelled
to close their shops for want of
material to produce for civilian
use. All this the senate hopes to
cure.
The mining industry, dormant
in Washington, Oregon and Ida
ho, will be eligible for loans from
the $100,000,000. There is a short
age of copper, zinc, lead, tung
sten, chrome and other metals
now buried in the ground- of the

The fifth annual Douglas '

terday in the Roseburg senior
high school. The purpose of the
program is to acquaint graduat
ing seniors with possibilities of
what they may do after gradua

as well as vocational supervisors
for youths not able or interested
in going to college. Approximate
ly 15 high schools participated in
the program, which was declared
a success by all present. Included
on the program were conferences
led by Dr. Walter Redford, presi
dent of Ashland normal school;
Dr. E. M. Pallet, registrar at Ore
gon university; E. B. Lemon, reg
istrar at Oregon State; Dr. Bid

Emphasis was placed on the con
