Rising U.S. Power
Assures Victory,
Knox Declares
Navy Chief Warns, However,
Long Bloody, Costly Fight
Lies Ahead for Allies
NEW YORK, Oct. 28-AP)
Navy Secretary Frank Knox
says this country Is rising un
yieldingly to a military strength
that assures victory, but that only
a long, bloody, costly fight will
produce that victory. ,
"We have a long and agonizing
road ahead of us," Knox told
some 3,000 persons at a navy day
dinner last night. The re
lentless vice of war will squeeze
us tighter and tighter. The price
in blood and treasure will be stag
gering. "We will suffer cruel losses
but we know now that
we are going to measure up to
our destiny.
He declared that the navy had
"hit the enemy some savage blows
and we have just begun to fight,"
but said that while ships, planes
and trained men were coming
faster, the pace was not fast
enough to do "properly our vast,
world-wide job of patrolling, of
, escorting and of fighting on all
the seas."
He asserted that when the
United States reflected upon its
troubles, it might also reflect on
those of the enemy whose "sky
is not so rosy as the fourth win
ter of his bid for the world sets
in."
Knox said submarines had
taken an "awful" toll of cargo
ships and seamen. We had losi
proud fighting ships and the
enemy had pushed us back to the
waters of Australia and the banks
of the Volga.
"But," he added, "the picture
Is changing now."
"We are marshaling our man
power to the last man," he con
tinued. "We are marshaling our
economic power to the last dollar
and our materials to the last
pound of metal.
"We have converted the great
est peaceful industrial plant of
all time into the greatest arsenal
of all time. We will produce more
munitions and construction for
war purposes in 1943 than the
total production for all purposes
In 1940."
He declared that after the war
"we must for our security insist
upon the maintenance of Ameri
can naval power, at least during
the transition period between the
end of formal hostilities and un
til effective means of preventing
war have been established and j
provpn." I

Shape Athletics
To Fit War Need,
High Schools Told
SALEM, Ore., Oct. 29 (AP)
High schools should maintain
their existing interscholastic ath
letic programs, but they should
subordinate them to the wartime
physical fitness programs, the
slate conference of city school
superintendents, high school
principals and junior high princi
pals recommended here.
The conference resolution said
that the first job of the schools
is to provide programs for the
maintenance of physical fitness
for every boy and girl.
Other recommendations includ
ed: Boys should be given military
drill, to be conducted either by
the slate guard or by military and
naval personnel.
Saturday classes should not be
held, vacation periods should not
be eliminated, and the number of
daily school hours should not be
increased.
Schools should cooperate wilh
employment agencies in getting
high school students to work out
side school hours, but no student
should work outside more than
four hours a day.
Juniors in all Oregon high
schools should be given premili
tary training.
The high school victory corps
program was endorsed unani
mously. The conference endorsed the
iniative measures, to he voted on
at next Tuesday's election, which
would give school districts all in
come tax receipts in excess of $7,
750,000 a year. .

From West Coast
Areas Completed
SAX FRANCISCO, Oct. 29
(API In a movement without
parallel in the nation's history,
110,5!U persons of Japanese an

Claims to Be Oregon's . .
Longest Auto Driver
OREGON CITY, Ore., Oct. 29
(AP) Until somebody proves
him In error, R. B. Graham of
Wllsonville will lay claim to being
Oregon's longest driver of auto
mobiles, and It not that, at least
the state's most careful driver.
Graham, a retired locomotive
engineer which may have had
something to do with his owning
two steam-powered autos before
buying one with a gasoline motor
in 1904 has been drlvlna for al
most 45 years.
What's more, he says, he has
never so much as dented a fender
of any car he has owned.

Ptey Mr Mi Pom
IVE your state legislators ade
quate pay for serving you and
the State of Oregon. They sacrifice
their time and income to represent
you. Help Oregon choose its most
capable citizens to make its laws.
Make sure of sound legislation by
having sound legislators! Vote 300X
Yes on November 3 to increase the
pay of legislators from $3 a day to
$8 a day for a 50-day session.
A Poor Man Cannot Afford to
Serve as a legislator!
Through the injustice of the present
rate of pay for legislators, fixed in
1859 ($3 a day 83 years ago would
be equal to $30 a day now), a poor
man is actually prevented from
serving in the Oregon legislature.
That's not America! That's not rep
resentative government! Remember,
Lincoln was bora ia a log cabin
he was a poor man all his life.
Present Rate of Pay ;
lowest in Matient
Oregon pays its legislators less than
any other state in the Union. Legis
lators in the 1941 Oregon session
actually were paid less than $1.94
day. How can you give a poor man
an opportunity to represent you,
how can you expect Oregon's most
able citizens to serve you on this
inadequate pay? Oregon legislators
should receive reasonable and fair
