AMERICANS in general are not greatly concerned with peace scuic-ments in I lie Balkans, but KUSSiA 13. the JialKans are an rmicn a part ot Hussia's sphere ot Inliuence as the Western Hemis phere is ol ours. It that problem can be settled, the way will be opened lor the settlement ol other problems. What we want, above every thing else, Is to get the world back onto an Ol'tHATlNU ba sis. Settlement of the Balkan dis agreements will help In that di rection. FROM London comes a signifi cant statement that a five power meeting of military lead ers is expected to take place in JANUARY to discuss establish ment of the International PEACE PRESERVATION FORCE con templated by the United Nations charter. The United Nations char ter, formed at San Francisco, hat been almost forgbtten in recent months. ' If there is to be international co-operation to prevent war, Ihere must be an international police force of some sort for hu man nature is not yet perfect enough to be good without police pressure. That was recognized clearly at San Francisco. Appar ently the machinery to provide it Is BEGINNING TO MOVE. So', you sec, the hopes that were stirred at San Francisco arc not dead. GENERAL WEDEMEYER, U. S. commander in China, says: "I'ians for moving more Chi nese government armies into Manchuria are under considera tion. Additional American troops (maybe 3,000 to 4,000 will be needed to transport and supply them. Such a development would be an implementation of Ameri ca's new policy of helping Chiang's government." That sounds like the green light for unifying China and get ting her back to work. THE speed with which these de velopments are beginning to get under way suggests that the whole program ot reorganizing the world was held up by lack of agreement among the United States. Britain and Russia and that FULL AGREEMENT was finally reached at Moscow.' THE world is moving forward Jo JAPAN, where the "New Ja pan Women's Party" has Just been formed. It is small in num bers, but c.ecis to have some candidates in the forthcoming Janrse elections. The new Social Democratic party of Japan has Just come out for equal rights Inr women. IN Portland, some 4500 Japanese men, women and children sail for Japan aboard an American ship. Most of them had requested repatriation (return of their Jap citizenship). A lew were be ing deported. A considerable mimlxT of them, the dispatches tell us, 'sailed in the FIRM belief lh.it they are going hack to a VIC TnifKH'S homeland" One ( the leu Uriah', a Jap from Stockton, told the rciorter: "The ma). inly of these people really think J a pan WON THE WAR. They think what they read In the pa pers is Just propaganda and that Japan it tcluslly FORCING the United Stttes to return us as a part o! the peace condition " That's what propaganda can do. NO CONFLICT By Charle I he Eugene Sportsmun's club has publisher" a tabloid paper, "JM9 ligh Pam Jlusiness," which. is being circulated throughout the state, protesting high dams which would destroy recreational value in the Columbia and Willamette Baxins. The paper has as additional sponsor an organized group pf home owners on the McKenzie river, where summer homes represent expenditure of many millions of dollars. Publication of the tabloid at Eugene follows a very com plete and interesting study, "Wealth of the River," covering the proposed Columbia River development. A 60-page book let, "Table Mountain Dam, A Public Liability," recently made its appearance in Northern California. Thus there is evidence that the general public is rousing Itself to protect its natural resources against ''make-work" federal projects which would be of damage rather than benefit. One factor in this "dam" fight we believe should be dragged into the open. A deliberate attempt is in the making- to set farmers and sportsmen at one another's throats for the purpose of building up local fights to divert opposition from federal agencies endeavoring to protect their existence by forcing expensive and useless public works upon the country. Farmers rightfully are interested in cheap power, irriga tion, flood control, etc. Propaganda from federal bureaus would lead to the belief that the old adage, "you can't get something for nothing," U untrue and that all these high dams, public power units, irrigation projects, and other dreams of engineers and economy planners, can be had without cost. Sportsmen contend that high -dams are not necessary at every sitevhere a high dam could be built, and that objec tives can be achieved at far less cost and without destroying recreational and scenic resources. Actually there is no conflict between sportsmen and farmers, except as friction has been deliberately created through propaganda. No sportsmen's organization, we believe, would oppose a high dam if it could be shown that the benefits to be derived would be greater than the destruc tion to be wrought by the proposed project. On the other hand, we do not believe our farmers, already tax-ridden, desire useless expenditures of funds, or destruc tion of any recreational resources which can be preserved, while, at the same time achieving a maximum benefit to agriculture. The entire question revolves around determination of values. If, as sportsmen contend, low dams will serve the purpose of irrigation more cheaply than high dams with expensive distribution canal systems, then, certainly, farmers would be in agreement with the policy of low dams in preference to more expensive high dams. If high dams can be built on tributary streams, or outside recreational areas without destroying fisheries, homesites and scenic values, yet serve the purposes of cheap power, we do not believe farmers would insist upon a dam which would destroy recreational values without providing additional benefits. We must determine whether increased property valuations and income, resulting from development projects, will offset taxes and operating and maintenance costs. We must ascer tain whether recreational values of an affected area are being unnecessarily endangered by the "damitis" malady from which our engineers appear to be suffering. We know personally a great many of the leaders in sportsmen's organizations, men who are taking an active part in combatting the proposals to stick a dam in every stream where a dam site exists. But not one of those men, we are certain, would oppose any project in which public welfare would be more greatly benefitted by dam construc tion than by preservation of existing recreutioiml resources. Sportsmen are only demanding that there be no senseless and useless destruction of scenic and recreational resources when objectives can be achieved by methods less destructive. Capt.B.H.

HEMO 59' Pound Jar Lumber Plants in Klamath District Again in Operation KLAMATH FALLS, Ore.. Jan. 2. l.-Vi Wheels turned today in several AFL lumber plants in the Klamath Basin district council area, after a three months strike shutdown. Operations were resumed this morning in the box factory and planing mill of the major Klam ath Falls mill involved in the strike the Big Lakes Box Com pany. The mill nroper will hum tomorrow. Kalpine Plywood Company of Klamath Falls and the Ralph L. Smith Lumber Company plants at Klamath Falls, Canby and Al turas went back to work, as did the Associated Lumber and Box Plant at Dorris. All AFL opera tions at Lakeview were cleared for action, and AFL headquarters here said that work resumption would be generally effected through the area within two or three days. The back-to-work program is based on ratification by union lo cals and management of a strike settlement announced by negotia tors here last Saturday, under which the sawmill minimum wage was hoisted from 87i cents to $1.02i an hour.

Weed Plant Still Idle A remaining trouble point Is at Weed, Calif., where the big Long Bell Company's sash, door and plywood operations are still in volved in a wage Issue. The Pine Industrial Relations Committee, Inc. which represented employ ers in the strike settlement, was not authorized to bargain for the sash, door and plywood units at Weed, but did represent the Weed Mill and Box Factory.
