That is -why people HOARD FOOD at every opportunity. They realize that it is unfair to others, but in the face of the fear that the food supply may become In- adequate the law of self-preserva tion takes command and they lay hands on food when and where and how they can and store It up for their OWN ' possible future pressing needs. - CO It Is with the now closely or J ganlzed CLASSES of our pop ulation. As the fear of Inflation (which Is a mounting scarcity of things, visibly reflected in the form of higher prices) grips them, they take mass action to PROTECT . THEMSELVES, re gardless of ' the welfare o the whole population, Just as -food hoarders act' to get theirs NOW, before It is all gone. I . . THE pity of it Is that these ef forts arc all so useless. The stcelwoi kcrs wage a costly strike and win a considerable In crease in- pay. Whereupon steel rises in price. Since Steel Is a ba sic raw material, the prices of other things rise In response to the rise In the cost of steel. So It Is with coal. So It will be with transportation. All , are funda mental necessities, and as their cost -rises other costs will rise In inevitable, Irresistible. response. Tbe workers, who suffered and denied themselves to win the In creased wages, soon find that the butcher, the baker and the can dlestick maker reach into the pockets where they put their in creased earnings and filch all the new' money away and more be sides. Then It must all be done over again with worse consequences. BUT such Is the nature of Infla tion which Is like a squirrel running around and around in his rotating 'cage. THe harder he runs, the more exhausted he be comes. But he GETS NOWHERE. There is nowhere for him lo get, under the system. THE only hope for the squirrel is to get away from the rotat ing cage system. The only hope for us In our present dilemma Is to get away from the inflationary system. The only cure for inflation Is PRODUCTION. Recurring strikes hamper pro duction, and so leave us worse off than before and move farther off Into the future the time when we can get out of the whirling cage in which we are running ourselves ragged. .... THIS Is a good time to get back to the seemingly callous state ment made at the beginning of this column to the effect that perhaps it would be Just as well if the situation now existing in America were brought to a head by a strike that would stop rail transportation. I(i flallon, which lies at the l oot of all these strikes and disturb ances, Is a form of INSANITY. Medical research Is teaching us that it is possible to cure certain forms of insanity by administer ing a SHOCK to the patient (by the use of drugs', or otherwise). . So, possibly, the shock admin istered. o all of us hy the slop page of rail' transportation might have tlie same effect upon us as a rtation ot people stilfertng un der the rlcluslonsof .the , ljilla-, tioriirrcyek-- ' ' f J.t'.: It might 'shock us out of dur le; hlSlou.-.';:-:;:;- i 'i : ? . t.

STANTON i - ' .' j ' - j i ' - . v. .. , -? -i n.Seyeral.jtrMks':agoin;discussins reckless automobile driv-irig-Tby 'teen-'atfers, we suggested 'that high school students, Who' realized that, 'discredit entire group Dy the actions of a Jew show-olts, could cor rect the matter by using their own peculiar brand of control. Several student leaders apparently have adopted the sug gestion, with the result that there has been' a notable reduc tion in foolish and reckless handling of niotor vehicles in the city ' area.'; Yet,' insofar as we' have, learned, there has been no; resort 'to violence, abuse or ' mistreatment, even though 'some implication of.;such. tactics -might have been sugfeted in "handling" cases of offenders. , " ' ; Anv' example 'of ; how student leaders .have, operated to protect the! good name of our Roseburg-y'ouhg people, is the ase 6f iii&rt alcckp 'found driving aii-autombbile in ,a dan-geroiiS- majiiidry ftiaknVg. wisecracks -'about, tertaiii activities' of the young people," nnd' otherwise .'w in an obnoxious manner. A group of football stalwarts, after waiting for a favorable opportunity, cornered the of fenders outside the city limits and proceeded to "lay down the law," with conclusive definiteness. No further exhibi tionist tendencies have been noted on the part of those con fronted with the ultimatum. It is not our purpose to encourage student leaders to take the law into their own hands. interpret the suggestion in that our high school students reputation to be vigilant in protecting their good name. The general public is prone to judge young people as a whole by the actions of a few. Reading of increasing juvenile delinquency, it is easy to form quents are representative of the entire age group. 'Teen agers going about their affairs in an undemonstrative, or derly way attract no attention. The observer does not realize that they represent the great majority. Cut a very few, through uncouth behavior, reckless driving, loud and obscene language, or disorderly conduct, draw immedate attention of 'observers, who, without stopping to use reason, consider such irresponsible show-offs as typical 'teen-agers. No conclusion could be further off-base. Hoodlums com pose an exceedingly small minority, but, because they so totally disregard convention, they bring disrepute, unde served though it may be, upon others. For every hoodlum there are 'scores of orderly, well-mannered, clean young persons. The latter may be a trifle noisy at tihies, in the natural exuberance of youth; they may do their necking openly and frankly, or in other ways draw criticism from their more sober and sedate elders. But we have found, most frequently, that such criticism usually savors of sour grapes or indigestion. We believe the young people fine as may be found anywhere. They have a right to be proud of themselves, individually and collectively, They have a right to protect and dofend their reputations from those who might bring discredit upon them. We are confident they will 'not become abusive in exercising vigilance when demanding public conduct representative of their group as a whole and will not, in correcting evils, resort to unlawful or violent methods. But they have served, probably without public notice, to bring about greatly improved conditions, and should be commended, we believe, for what they have done. Local Issues May Affect Battle for Control of House By JACK STINNETT WASHINGTON Ask a dozen poltlcal leaders how many and which key districts will determine control of the House in the No vember elections and you'll got two dozen ditferent answers. The difference will be slinht, but not unimportant. It's gener ally agreed that there are from 1115 to 175 so-called key districts, where the vote will be close enough to make the outcome un certain. It's also generally ai'reed that these doubtful districts are in 31 states. The Republicans, with 1!)0 seals now, need US to capture a bare majority of one, hut almost twice that number to enjoy the major ity now held by the Democrats. That doesn't sound difficult. II won't be if there Is a definite trend away from administration policies. But this year, campaign strate gists in bolh camps agree, the Issues aren't going to be "admin istration policies." Don't misun derstand this. If you follow the campaign speeches, you will hear plenty of attacks and defenses of administration policies. Pri marily, however, the Issues will be localized Perhaps It isn't a perfect Illus tration, but In Some of these doubtful districts, the CIO Polit ical Action Committee- will br very active. In some cases it will be fighting Republicans, defend ing Democrats. In others, vice versa. In some districts, pcrsonalllles will sway the votes. Some of these will be Democratic person alities, some Republican. A dis trict that feels It was neglected In the alor.it inn of war plants, or Is dissatisfied with its recon version treatment, or fur any reason Is unhappy or liannv about its present representative, may bo the district that will determine the balance of power in the House when the 80th Congress convenes. But the administration policies aren't likely to lie involved. 1 here seems fo be no doubt that Pennsylvania. New York, Illinois. Ohio. Missouri, New Jer spv nrl California w.hnve the. greatest number ol riouitluUriis. tricts. '-Some Jiiay havt.' double those doubtful In other states.-but there are euoufh other sUtts to was being brought upon their Nor do we believe they will that way. But we are pleased have sufficient pride in their the opinion that those .delin of Douglas County are as make even those with only one close district important. If the race is certain to be close, you can be sure that you are one of those many, many thousands this November who will be casting a vote on whether the House turns up Republican or Democratic when it organizes next January. The Issues may be purely local to you In these 105-odd districts, but to the Democratic and Re publican national committees the outcome may he as vital as if it were a presidential vear. If the Republicans take over in November' and precedent means anything at all, they can win wiin a straw man in 1318. U.S. Backs Tokyo Envoy in Rap At Communism Trick WASHINGTON, May 21 -Mi me Mtate Department has en dorsed a declaration by Its rank ing diplomat at Tokyo that this country does not favor commu nism in either the United States or Japan.

Frear, accompanied by liur dette Leas, foreman of the Doug- last uounty snops; Dale Hattield, road patrolman, and Roland Breedlove. The party traveled through the ApDleate between Grants Pass and Medford and returned by wav of Camp White, they said. The state secondary highways in Jackson and Josephine Coun ties. Frear observed, carry "less traffic in two weeks" than the North Umpqua and Melrose roads carry "in 15 minutes."

Ho expressed the wish that the state could aid in maintenance of county roads which receive heavy use by logging trucks. ; Auto.
