.Mjiiuuuva isuju yuan a
garian government will be recog
nized by tne United Males anu
uiuaiii, wmcn nave so lar been
noiuing back.
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.

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. The Northwest

disapproval of the Klamath basin
settlement, but the council's
frowns thus far have not affected
ratification by local unions.
Where meetings have been held,
ratification has been voted.
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.
Unionists here said it is possible
the Weed locals will not be will

and box factory until the situa
tion with respect to the sash,
door and plywood units is settled.
