Their purpose, of course, Is to

It might be either.
THE expected Jap all-out assault
on the allied base of Imphal,
in northeastern India, hau not
malorial.ed as these words arp
written, but Is moncntarlly ex
pected. The monsoon rains, which
will bog down transport, are
near, and if the Japs are to save
"face" In India (where they have
been hoping to stir up political
trouble) they will , have to get
going pretty soon. Already the
rains are beginning.

ON the home front, the dis

OPPOSITION vote."
Any politician ran always rend
something favorable Into any
kind of political developments,
but realistic thinkers accept the
results In Florida ai)d Alabama
as Indicating that the South will
vote solidly, as usual, for the
nominee of the democratic con
vention. THE Solid South, plus the led
cm I office-holder vote, gives
the New Dealers Rtrong start.
Any republican who thinks the
election this fall will be a walka
way Is Just a plain wishful think
er. The only ho)o of n republican
victory lies In a choice of h candi
date and the adoption of a plat
form that will be so outstandingly
GOOD as to win the complete
confidence of the public.
A GRAVE ACCUSATION
By Charles V. Stanfoft
SENATOR RUFUS HOLMAN, speaking before a group of
republican leaders at a meeting in Roseburg Saturday,
made grave accusations of administration blundering in
connection with national defense, and laid responsibility for
Iho Pearl Harbor disaster squarely in the lap of President
Roosevelt. .,; :
Senator Holman was angry. He was particularly irked;
because of charges of falsification made" by the opposition
to his candidacy. Anyone who knows the : senator .is well
aware that when he is angered he does not mince words. In
fact, despite five years in the national capital Holman has
not mastered Washington double talk. A good deal of the
criticism leveled at him in the current name-calling campaign,
stems from the forthrightness with which he lias declared
himself in the past. The senator often says what he thinks
without stopping to think, if you get what we mean. He
may be accused of many things, but beating around the bush
is not one of them. His statements on political matters do
not leave much possibility for varied interpretations.
' His accusations leveled at the administration, in anger
over what he described as a deliberate attempt to "purge"
him from office, were not couched in diplomatic language nor
phrased to achieve his purpose by implication. Not only
did he make flat declarations of political malpractice, but
lie shouted his charges and called attention to the fact he
was not whispering." ......
Taking into consideration the fact that the senator is a
candidate for office, engaged in one of the bitterest smear
ing campaigns this state has seen in many moons and that
charges and countercharges are being made with reckless
abandon, nevertheless the accusations concerning the ad
ministration should bo more fujly elaborated and complete
information should be given the public. '
It is customary for candidates for office to exaggerate !
conditions, and to turn any situation, if possible, to their own i
advantage. It therefore becomes possible that Senator Hoi-;
man was making political hay by his sensational charges.
But we have no reason for doubting the truth of his asser
tions, As a member pf the senate committee on military
affairs, ho iias access to information denied the general
public.
If it is true, as he stated, 'that President Roosevelt disci
plined General MaeArthur because ho demanded more ade
quate defenses for the Pacific area, then the public is en
titled to know all the facts.
Senator Holman charged that Admiral Kimmcl was select
ed for the Hawaiian defense post simply because he was a
close personal friend and social pal of the president; that
Kimmcl, instead of following the usual naval practice of
immediately setting up a defense, program, countermanded
all the orders and procedure of his predecessor, destroying
by one order the plan for repelling attack in which personnel
had been thoroughly drilled, so that when the Japs struck
wt.. Pearl Harbor there was no organized and relieafsed
program for meeting the assault. ' "'
Army courtmartials are being Jield every clay, thtl sena
tor asserted, and there is no reason why Admiral Kimmcl
and General Short should not be brought to trial, except
that "one hundred and thirty million people would rise in
rage if they realized the extent of the president's blunder."
Senator Holman thus openly accuses the administration
of withholding facts, to which the public is entitled, be
cause such information would affect the forthcoming presi
dential election. We have no cause to doubt the truth of the
senator's statements until they are controverted by facts.
The nation has long been suspicious of a "nigger in the
woodpile" in connection with the Pearl Harbor tragedy, be
cause of the administration's reluctance to bring to justice
those responsible for that great disaster. The senator's
charge, openiy made, is one which should be thoroughly aired
before the American public is called upon to elect a chief
executive.
