, even. Most Judges wi" toll you
, (If you can got them to talking
shop) that contracts that are fair
and reasonable to both sides sel
dom get Into the courts, where
as the SLICK conl raots that, are
put oyer by the SMARTIES very
often get Into the courts.
Litigation Is costly and cats
rapidly into prof lis.
s
ECRETARY HULL is telling
us that If (in our after-the-
wan dealings) we arc fair and
honest with other nations, the
agreements we arrive at will be
likely to. Inst longer and work
better.
All wise business roer' wlll
agroc with him. j
FROM International dealings,
Secretary HUH went on In his
frank conversation with' j the
members of the committee lo
the problem of employment after
the war. i
He said:
"The tijuth, I bcllevo, Is that
after the war, II we are to fur
nish employment to people who
should have It and who are en
titled to it i we jmust
increase production, distribution
and consumption."
HE didn't go on from there to
give details, but If he had we
can imagine (hat Ills ideas might
have run something like this:
If wo are to have increased
. production, distribution and eon
. sumption we must TAKE OFF
,;THE RESTRICTIONS. We must
do away with rules providing that
a worker must 'produce ONLY
SO MUCH In a day. On the other
side of the fence, we musl wipe
from the statute books the mass
of laws that are Intended (o keep
somebody from underselling
somebody else.
1 We must get clear In our
minds t lint the way to HAVE A
LOT is to PRODUCE A LOT.
We've done a lot of talking In
recent years about dividing
things up. We must plainly un
derstand thai wv can't DIVIDE
what ISN'T PRODUCED.
IN these days of bright-eyed
I young men who are running
things these are just notions that
are held by old fucldy duddys. It
has been more or less evident on
numerous occasions that our
bright-eyed young men in Wash
ington regard Secretary Hull us
an old fuddy-duddy who ought to
be got rid of at the first possible
moment.
So oni! wonders how far he
will get with currying these sini
pie, plain, common-sense, small
town honest business man ideas
Into the rarlfled atmosphere of
world diplomacy.
This writer, for one, hopes he
gels a LONG WAY.
This will be a belter world to
live In If he docs.

THE ARMY NEWS MONOPOLY
By Charles V. Stanton
IT is extremely difficult at times to resist the temptation to
become an armchair general. It is so easy to criticize the
strategy being employed on the war fronts or to attempt
an "expert" analysis of tactics. The flow of opinion from
radio and newspaper commentators and editorial writers
offers about as many views as there are observers, while
few agree as to facts and trends. ' '
Wo note in editorial opinions of our exchanges consider
able criticism of the situation in Italy where progress hag
been disappointing to the general public. Some writers are
finding fault with strategy and tactics. A good many seem
to be of the same opinion as the soldier who wrote recently
to the editor of Colliers magazine, stating, in effect that
dliod generals were fighting the campaign according to rules
laid down in the book of strategy and it was evident the
Germans had read the same book.
But, yielding to the urge to do a little "experting," we
believe the present Italian campaign is going "according to
plan" and is a move in a giant strategic plot which has de
feat of the axis as the assured outcome.
We are not concerned so much with the issue itself,
however, as with the fact that all the second guessing ol
commentators and editors would be unnecessary and the
public could be saved much anxiety and confusion if official
dom would only provide the information to which we are
entitled.
If our leading military authorities would tell the public
the Italian campaign is serving the purpose for which it is
intended and slow progress, hard fighting and old-style,
solid-front tactics are all a part of a pro-conceived plan of
action, the nation would be given needed assurance. Or, on
the other hand, we could absorb news that the campaign has
so far failed of its purpose, that we bit off more than we
can chew satisfactorily and that we must expect heavy
losses until we can make needed corrections. Official state
ments would at least serve to focus comment and avoid con
fusion now resulting from scores of divergent, unofficial
opinions.
But, instead of giving the public an intimate picture of
the campaign, military authorities are clamping still fur
ther controls upon the news, for, according to dispatches
from London, orders have been issued that correspondents
may not use on-the-spot facilities for transmission of their
.stories, but must send copy back by courier service for
censorship at base headquarters. j
General Mark Clark's command is said to have taken
this action because "of annoyance caused by some press
dispatches concerning, the beachhead operation."
Particular criticism centered around news reports calling
the beachhead "another Tobruk or Dunkirk."
If, instead of attempting to bridle the news correspon
dents and keep the folks back home from knowing what
their boys pro up ugainsj; in Italy, the military authorities
would give us official statements in which we could have
full confidence, regardless of whether the news is good or
bad, analysts, commentators and armchair generals
would at least have something tangible to discuss instead of
making wild guesses.
But, as pointed out by the editor of Sntuntau Evening Pout,
the army contends in an official publication that "news is
not the sacred property of the press." Because the armed
services make, the news, they have a vested interest in the
reporting and editing of the news, the army declares.
If this interpretation is to be maintained, then freedom
of the press will soon be as dead as a Uooseveltian "Balance
the Budget" promise.

Lose 2nd Tilt to
Ashland, 41 to 39
The Roseburg high school In
dians were beaten again Saturday
night in their two-game series
with the Ashland Grizzlies, but
the home team knew it had had
a ball game. Ashland won 41 to
39 in a fast and rough game in
which the two teams were never
separated by more than four
points.
Ashland's tall center, Bartell,
with his pivot shot, won the
game for the Grizzlies, as the In
dians could not find a defense to
stop his swing toss, permitting
him to make 21 of Ashland's 41
points.
Ashland led 10 to 6 at the quar
ter and 21 to 18 at the half, but
the game went Into the final pe
riod with the score tied at 29-all
and it was either team's game un
til the final whistle.
Lineups:
Ashland 41 Pos. 39 Roseburg
Robertson F 9 Young
Landing F. 4 Wiley
Bartell 21 C 11 Loomis
Riggs 8 G 11 Cummings
Samuelson 8 ..G 3 Krell
Substitutions: Ashland Kan
nasto 1, Waybrant 3; Roseburg
James 1, Marr. Officials: Hardy
and McClain.
An indication of the pace of the
game was shown in the fact that
Roseburg took 42 shots at the
basket, connecting for 16, wjiile
Ashland took 77 shots and hit 17.
Fifteen fouls were called against
Roseburg and 13 against Ashland:
The Indians crossed the moun
