That puts them on notice that WE, AT LEAST, propose to be plain business honest In inter national affairs. It is a sound position for the United States to take. CHIANG KAI-SHEK proposes a new deal (not necessarily a Mew Deal) for China, creates a supreme economic council to tackle It and promises to "spare no effort to bring Internal order and security." He says: "We must not allow Internal disturbances to make us lose sight of the basic need of the Chinese people for a far higher standard of living. He adds: "It is my Intention to assume PERSONALLY the direction of China's economic reconstruction and development." PUTTING two and two together, we can guess that his first step will be to crush communist opposition In the north, thus UNITING China. That looks like a showdown that will bring out what Russia Is going to do. If it develops that RUSSIA CO OPERATES in this program, a lot of dangerous suspicions will bo cleared away. If we could clear the world of the SUSPICIONS that are every where hampering progress to ward bettor human relations, we might be able to get somewhere In the direction of a better world In which great wars will be loss likely. HARASSED, dispossessed, starv ing, afraid-of-the-future Jews arc pouring Into Palestine from all over Europe and arc reported to be rioting and shooting in their cfrorts to force their way in, Arabs or no Arabs. Under all the circumstances of the past half dozen years, we can hardly blame the Jews. Hut sup pose they started pouring Into Oregon, regardless of Immigra tion laws and everything else save their own Immediate security? We's be pretty badly stirred up. So, you see, we can herdly blame the Arabs. The situation In Palestine points out for us some of the difficulties Involved In this post war readjustment the world Is facing. FORMER Secretary of Stale Hull tells the Pearl Harbor in vestlgatlng committee that "the Japs were hell bent for war In 1!M1." He adds that he urged upon Mr. Roosevelt the keeping of the fleet In Hawaiian waters for PSYCHOLOGICAL effect. He defined "psychological ef fect" thus: "If you happened to have a double-barreled shotgun In the house and were talking to a dos iteradn, you'd fool a little better and he'd feel a little worse If he saw the psychological outline of that weapon." THE fault In that reasoning Is that you'd LOAD THE SHOT tiUN. We left the Meet helpless, like H sitting dink, In IVnrl Harbor n ml failed to lake even ordinary precautions against any attempt by nn enemy that might try to SHOOT the tempting ducks. Until that point Is cleared up, the American people will continue to feel that the truth about lVsil Harbor hasn't been lold. President Avlls Comarho has Issued a decree that every liter ate in Moxkn must teach at least unc llllteiate to read and write. INTERNATIONAL VETERANS By Chariot V. Stantoa We have received a most interesting letter from Corporal J. Maurice Morgan of Roseburg, who serves in the statistical control section of a headquarters squadron in Ituly. He probably is in Germany at the present time, as his letter indicated that he was to be transferred in the near future. Corporal Morgan offers some constructive criticism of this column, which, in his opinion, should pay more atten tion to international affairs, and less to matters of purely local interest, or, as he expresses it "could be supplemented by questions of greater importance than rodeos and turkey shows." On the whole, he expresses commendation of our column, for which we are grateful and appreciative. Corporal Morgan writes: I have been keenly Interested in the editorials of the paper. I find only one fault with them. That fault is that almost exclusively your subjects pertain to purely local problems. In the world as it is today Year 1, Atomic Age our peoples' interest should be attracted more and more to problems of national and international scope. America needs that the masses of her people know exactly where and how she stands in 'relation with other nations; what other peoples think of us and why they think that way; what policies of ours foster their beliefs. The ordinary working man there at home hardly has even a faint Interest. He Is content to leave It to others. What better way is there to rehabilitate every American's interest than to begin In the smallest of communities? What better way is there to reach these people than through a free and earnest newspaper with intelligent editorials? Corporal Morgan has much more to say concerning thel subject of international relationship, particularly as to this country's lack of declared and decisive policy and failure of voters to elect qualified leaders. He has a good point there and perhaps it is well that we quote him: Members of congress are elected to their positions by the will of the people from those particular communities of which they are pari But often those elected are lax or uninterested and sometimes a person obtains office with a primary purpose of sustaining Ms personal ego or acquiring a sham prestige. The greater part of my military service has been with' the infantry, where we were taught theories that battles are won by aggressiveness, Initiative, courage and Intelli gence. I believe our national leaders should be chosen on those same merits. Both our domestic and foreign relations depend upon It. Those observations come from a soldier still too young to vote. We find his comments particularly interesting be cause they reflect the thinking of a great number of our veterans and the men still in service. The United States cannot revert to isolationism for many years to come. Mil lions of our young men have traveled too far and have seen too much to ever permit this country to forget Its obliga tion to the rest of the world. What were once far places of the world are as familiar USW,. young men today as their own back yards. ' They have seen the deserts of Africa, the beaches and mountains of Italy. The Mediterranean to many is as well known as the ncighlxirhood duck pond. They have made friends in England, France, Relgium, Holland. They have toured Germany the hard way. They have trod the coral islands of the South Seas. They know the countries-"down under," and have inhaled the smells of the Orient. They have roamed the mystic byways of India, have looked down upon the fabled cities of Tibet and Uurma, have mingled with the "heathen Chiner." They have shivered in the Yukon and Aleutians. As they swap experiences in years to come, they will speak with first-hand knowledge. They will be interested in affairs of those nations and places they have seen and known. The era of America's internationalism will be guided by well informed electorate. Corporal Morgan expresses most interestingly the thoughts in the minds of millions of young men today. We can excuse our own failure to comment more exten sively upon national and international affairs only because of the fact that the S'rivK-livricw has what we believe to le one of the best commentaries on world affairs to be found in any newsmpcr in the daily feature, -In the Day's AVirs," written by Frank Jenkins. Mr. Jenkins is a keen analyst, an accurate reporter, an observer whose insight into interna tional affairs is at times almost uncanny. For us to at tempt observations on matters of international importance in supplement to Mr. Jenkins' column would indeed be gild ing the lily, and with an inferior brand of paint. Continue A-Bomb Production, Advice To United States WASHINGTON, Nov. 29 VPi MaJ. Gen. L. R. Groves told the Senate Atomic Energy com mittee yesterday he considers it necessary to continue making atomic Bombs until we have a suitable supply on hand and the question of International control is determined. It should be possible to make certain reductions in the plants within two years, the head of the secret Manhattan project told Senator Vandenberg. Until then, Gioves said, the production fa cilities should be retained and operated about as they now stand. His testimony before the Sen ate group studying control meas ures included these other points: 1. A recommendation for es tablishment of a special commis sion independent of any other government agency to supervise and control the development of atomic energy. 2. Official casualty estimates of the two atomic bombings of Japan: 70,000 to 120.000 dead or missing and 75,000 to 200,000 in jured at Hiroshima; 40,000 to 4.'.000 dead or missing and 40,000 injured at Nagasaki. 3. A declaration that the atomic bomb was "the greatest surprise since the Trojan horse" and ef lectlve In bringing the Japanese war to a sudden end. 4. A statement that no radio active damage was done to hu man beings except at the mo ment the bomb went off. 5. An estimate that if an atomic bomb were dropped in the "fed eral triangle" of government buildings in Washington, an area about two miles in diameter would be destroyed. Such an area would take In the Capitol and the White House, ranrjo northwest as far as the National Cathedral, and windows would be blown out of the Penta gon building across the Potomac river in Virginia, he said. Amim Iw Prea-toe. Pant Motr's Former Rival Again House Aspirant PORTLAND, Nov. 29 P Another Republican candidate for the First district congressional vacancy left by the late Rep. James W. Mott entered the run ning today. He is Dan Harmon, Ncwberg Republican, who was defeated by Mott In the 1944 primaries.

Johnson (D. Colo.) told the Senate yesterday he sees "no hope for humanity except through an organized world effort to stop war backed by force." He endorsed the pending Con nally resolution stipulating the terms of this country's partici pation In the United Nations and pleaded that the "awful" atomic bomb be used as a "persuader" to prevent aggression. "The world organization of which I am thlnkine is one de signed to stop war with the atom ic bomb in the hands of the United States as a club behind the door to be used only when a bandit nation goes beserk," he said in a Senate soeech. "If the United States Is to be come an Integral part of such an organization, why should she not be made, the custodian of this aw Uil weapon Which she has created?" Earlier, Senator Taft urged the Senate to approve a series or amendments to the Connally res olution, declaring that otherwise any president might be able to push the United States into a costly war or to apply sanctions which would "suppress and cen sor all news going out of the United States." Johnson told the Senate that from now on, wars will start suddenly and be lost quickly, with "no time for debates, consulta tions and declaration. "Nations not set to get under way trigger quick will be whipped before they start, he asserted.

Difficulties In Ruling Germany WASHINGTON, Nov. 29 (fl Bvron Price bluntly warned yesterday the situation In occu pied Germany is growing hourly and the American govern ment must soon decide whether It will abandon its first major attempt to rule a conquered people. The former censorship director made the assertions in a report on a survey of conditions In the Reich for President jruman. Price called for a re-examina tion of the entire structure oi military government in Germany, including the Potsdam declara tion; blamed France for most of the current occupation difficul ties, and declared that France should tell the world whether she bent on dismemberment oi Germany. The German people "nursing old and new hatreds with mount ing hitterness." he said, are "lis tening hourly" for the voice of a new leader that "desperation may Droduce. Among tne points maae oy Price: ' The United States must de cide whether we mean to finish the Job competently ... or with draw. "We must decide whether we are going to permit starvation, with attendant epidemics and dis orders, in the American zone, or ship the food to prevent It. we must decide wnetner ob structions raised by the French government . . . are to be per mitted to defeat the underlying purposes of allied policy." "The next few months . . . will determine whether the American government in its first large-scale attempt at governing a conquered people, is to succeed, or fall, or abandon the effort.
