that has given the employer.
There is also the tradition of
feudalism. We must remember
that here ,on this very soil, In
feudal times, the worker was a
sei-f, TIED to the land he tilled,
wholly at his master's mercy.
So, you can see, bitter memories
cluster around this term "TIED
cottage."
It is generaiy expected that
the new labor government will
do away with the system. Em
ployers wonder how, without it,
they will be able and "hnndle"
their labor. This writer's guess is
that it will GO and go quickly,
another relic of the past over
whelmed by the swelling tide of
new thinking that Is sweeping
this Island.
THIS Evesham area is regarded
as distinctly "advanced," For
example, if a small holder wants
to clear out, he can sell his lease
and his property, such as growing
cfops, to a neighbor and move on
without, saying "by your leave"
to nisi 'landlord. ' That Isn't the
fjenorril nile,-this writer is told
(with England's feudal tradition,
landlordism! an Institution here
(hut we Americans find it hard
lo understand).''
Also, it a tenant has fruit trees
or asparagus, or some similar
long-term crop, the trees and the
roots are HIS PROPERTY, and
if he sells his lease and moves,
or is dispossessed, he has to be
recompensed for them. That also
isn't the general rule elsewhere,
If the tenant moves after putting
out an orchard or an asparagus
patch it is just too bad, and he
loses them.
This Evesham right of the
tenant in such matters has been
upheld by the courts recently.
( More evidence pf the spread of
new ideas.)
.
EVEN among these small hold
ers, with their tiny areas,
MECHANIZATION Is taking
hold. Mr. Hall has a garden trac
tor (one of these little affairs
working from a traction wheel in
front and guided by handles like
a plow). It is made by a well
known American manufacturer,
and Its owner thinks very highly
of it Indeed as a sturdy depend
able tool. "I've 'ad It for 'ite
years," he says, "and In all that
time it's never 'ad so much as a
new bolt or a new nut. It stands
up and tykes it year arfter year."
THE town of Evesham (it is a
place of 00,000, but here' In a
nest of huge cities that Is a mere
village) is neat and attractive,
with that distinct and unmistaka
ble air of comfort, well-being and
reasonable prospciiry that you
feel In the ulr. Its shops are well
slocked with good merchandise,
in strong contrast lo London
whose stocks have been practi
cally cleaned out of everything
by gift-hungry Yanks.
Evesham has no dally news
paper only a weekly. There are
practically NO small city dallies
in England. Tho Manchester
Guardian and the Yorkshire Post,
published In cities far larger than
San Francisco, are referred to
here as the "provincial press."
AtX through rural England
thatched roofs are common.
Thatch is a good roof, warm in
winter and cool in summer. Its
disadvantage is that mice nest
and tunnel in it, along with some
birds, constantly showering down
debris into the rooms below.
That, however, has been checked
by putting. a covering of wire
screen around the thatch, and a
tight sheathing of boards under
it.

RAMBLING
By Charles V. Stanton
Kclease of workers in shipyards, aircraft factories and
other war plants, coming simultaneously with lifting of
gasoline rationing, has filled highways with families return
ing to their homes or seeking new locations. Roads are con
gested with jalopies heaped high with household furnish
ings and personal possessions as the hegira of, war workers
from industrial centers geta under way.
The present condition is but a mild sample of what 'is to
come. We can anticipate a vast movement of population
continuing over a period of years. Predictions point to a
mighty tide sweeping westward to the Pacific slope in the
postwar era.
Recently we picked up a soldier hitch-hiking his way
south from Camp Adair. We learned that he came from
New York city and was seeing the Pacific coast for the
first time. Given a 30-day furlough, he struck out to view
as much of the coast as his limited leave would permit. He
volunteered information that he is greatly intrigued by the
West coast and plans to bring his family out this way as
soon as he secures release from military service. He has
been using every weekend pass to visit Oregon cities, and
was on his way to California, foregoing a trip back to his
home with his wife's telephoned consent during his fur
lough, in order that he might search out their prospective
postwar homesite. ' ,
' This soldier is only one of many thousands making like
ulans. Brought from' the Midwest, South and East to Pa
cific coast camps for training, great numbers of men fell
in love with the Far West and plan to join our communities
a3 soon as circumstances permit. Thus we can prepare for
a great influx of young, stalwart men, filled with ambition,
whom it will be a pleasure to welcome into the fast-growing
coast area.
Removal of gasoline rationing has filled highways with
more than families making their exodus from war produc
tion centers. A state policeman told us a traffic count he
conducted during his patrol
on the highway to be from
certainly has returned to normal
ing one-fourth of cars counted, half bore Washington
licenses, with the balance from Oregon and miscellaneous
states.
Here in Roseburg, ability to
downtown traffic and parking
have been walking to and from
intervals, are rapidly returning
ing the family bus downtown during the daytime, or driv
ing the two blocks to the neighborhood grocery. Growing
congestion furnishes further proof of Roseburg' 8 rapid boost
in population tjnd renews attention to the urgency of; fiv
cilities for off-street parking, wider streets and traffic con
trols.
Speaking of traffic controls,
due the city council and street department for the new
"Stop" signs erected to replace the "tire busters" previously
set in the center of streets at intersections with arterials.
The new curbline signs are attractive and a decided im
provement.
We've had an idea in mind for a long time that the city
of Roseburg could improve the traffic situation materially
if it would remove all power and light poles from the main
streets and cut sidewalks back two feet on each side. Wires
could be placed underground or run over the roofs of build
ings. Street lights could be hung from brackets fastened
to buildings. Presence of poles along sidewalks now wastes
at least two feet of space, so sidewalk capacity would not
be reduced, while addition of as little us four feet to street
width would be of great benefit in traffic movement. It's
just an idea. It may not be worth a hoot. Maybe some
one has a better plan; if so we'd like to hear about it, for,
certainly, wider streets are an absolute necessity.

DAILY DEVOTIONS
DR. CHARLES A. EDWARDS
"And they continued stead
fastly." The early Christians
had the grace of constancy.
They were steadfast in their
loyalty to Christ and His teach
ing and to the Christian fel
lowship. They continued stead
. fastly in prayer. They con
tinued steadfastly in the
temple. They were not "off
and on" Christians; they were
steadfast. Every Lord's Day
found them together. When
the day of Penticost was fully
come, they were all together
in one place. They wer stead
fast,, meeting every day and
waiting for the promise of
their Master to be fulfilled.
Jesus had been steadfast for
them. He steadfastly set His
face toward Jerusalem. He
would not be turned aside. Our'
redemption depended on it. if
He failed we would be lost.. He
has given us an example of
an attainable ideal. Let us not
fail Him. Let us beware of the
enemies of steadfastness, indif.
ference, indolence, careless
company, the downward pull of
evil desires. Paul's admonition
"Be ye steadfast, unprovable,
always abounding," is good ad.
vice lor these days.
"O Lord and Master of us all;
Whate'er our name or sign.
We own 1 ny sway. We hear Thy
can, ,
We test our lives by Thine."

Peacetime Buying
On Installment
Is On Way Back
WASHINGTON, Aug. 22
(AP) Peacetime installment
buying practices are apparently
on the way back in.
It was learned today that re
laxation of the government regu
lation fixing specific down pay
ments on numerous purchase
items and otherwise limiting the
practice of "buying on time,"
may be effected within two
weeks.
The regulation went into ef
fect in the fall of 1941. It was
the seventh point of the late Pres
ident Roosevelt's general stabili
zation program.
It provides for a down pay
ment of one-third at the time of
purchase and stipulates the re
mainder must be paid in 12
months for a long list of items
including such commodities as
bedding and linens, bicycles,
boats, clocks, stoves, furnaces,
Jewelry, cameras, most musical
instruments, radios and washing
machines.
For time purchases of furni
ture and pianos. 20 per cent must
be paid immediately and the re
mainder in 12 months.
The regulation also placed con
trols of loans made to purchase
such commodities or services and
provided that charge accounts
must be paid by the 10th day of
the second month following the
date of purchase.
Whether the regulation will be
abandoned entirely or merely
modified depends on decisions of
officials charged with maintain
ing a stable economy.
