WHITE HOUSE Secretary Ross says In Washington that telegraphic response to Truman's railroad strike speeches was the greatest following a Presidential action in the memory of execu tive employees. Jules Rodler, in charge of the White House telegraph room, says he has "never Been anything like it since I came to the White House In 1900." Secretary Ross adds that the response hiis been "overwhelm ingly favorable." j FL President William Green denounces President Tru man's strike-draft program as "slave labor under fascism." . He adds: "Even the effects of a hatlon-wldo strike on a vital In dustry could not be ns perman ently disastrous to our economy as slave labor and the nationaliza tion of Industry. Yet these are the Inevitable outcomes of the pro posed legislation." ', piIE reaction of the stock mar- ket, where people of all kinds puy and sell, Is fuvorublc. Stocks generally push forward In price --.Indicating that both buyers and sellers refuse to believe the country Is going to the dogs. yHlS writer's advice, offered for . what it Is worth. Is to sit tight. Refrain from Inflammatory state ments. Make your decisions from the standpoint ot tho COUN TRY'S WELFARE not from nny selfish standpoint. . BECAUSE of the menace of the Inflationary cycle, with Its constant throat of runaway pt-ices, there Is widespread fear 61 the future. At such times, peo ple don't act intelligently. Under the stress of fear, the law of self- preservation takes command and people do things they wouKin i think of doing In less hysterical times. Pood hoarding Is an example. Knowing them as Individuals, and neighbors, you can't possibly call ull food hoarders criminals. They are Just PEOPLE responding to a PRIMITIVE urge. IT Is out of times like these thai fascism, na.ism, communism arise. These Isms, whose re wards for the average run ot common, ordinary people arc in no way comparable to the iC' wrds of democracy and Intelli gent' self-government, can come to power ONLY when hysteria and near-panic replace clear, in telligent, .realistic, thinking. , , OECAUSE of the threat of run- P awny Inflation, which follows lack of production, this Is a na tional emergency. We must regard II as such. Otherwise we COULD BE lost. OUR HEROIC DEAD By CHARLES V. STANTON On the first page of today's edition of the News-Review will be found a list of Douglas County's World War II dead. This list, perhaps, is not complete. It has been compiled by Dr. C. A. Edwards, former chairman of the Douglas County Selective Service Board, who has had an intense interest in the young men and women from Douglas County who served with our armed forces. Throughout the war he maintained correspondence with hundreds of service men and now is seeking to gather the final records of those whose lives were given in supreme sacrifice. To date the names compiled for the Selective Service Board provide the only available record. Military services have not yet had the time nor clerical help to segregate casualty reports by states and counties. Consequently it has been necessary to appeal directly to the residents of the county for information. The list published today is prepared from names sent in by relatives or friends of the war dead. If names have been missed, despite the county-wide effort of the Selective Service Board to collect complete data, omissions should promptly be called to the board's atten tion and the additional information needed to complete the Honor Roll supplied without further delay. Mingled with our reverence and sorrow as we read the list of Douglas County's hero dead is an intense, burning pride pride in the achievements of those who died and those who lived. The saga of American heroism was writ ten upon bloody soil throughout the world, and there were few theaters of activity in which men and women from Douglas County were not represented. As we pause today to honor those whose lives were sacri ficed upon the altar of freedom, we must not forget the living, particularly those whose bodies and minds bear the scars of battle. A grateful nation must demand that the best of hospital and medical care be afforded all in need of curative science. To those who return in health we must provide compensation as best we can for the years taken from their lives years for which tltere can be no adequate compensation, except as we pay in spiritual values of peace and good will among men. Flags will be unfurled today, bands will play, parades will be held, sermons will be preached, volleys will be fired, taps will be sounded. But these observances will go unheeded by those whose eyes and cars have been closed to earthly tilings. They have joined the vast army of the ages the army where friend and foe alike have learned the futility of man in striving to gain peace through might. They have learned the lesson living man seems never to learn that peace is not to be found in earthly state but only in spirit; that when the spirit prevails man can and will live in peace with his fellow man. Such is tho message our heroic dead would bring to us today if they could but speak from their graves.. If we could but hoar and heed their message this Memorial Day could mark the birth date of permanent peace. But, instead, wo sing our praises of the dead, honor and reverence their memory, their deeds, and their sacrifice, while in our finite way we strive to solve the problem of peace, ignoring the Golden Rule formula which, in its simple terms, holds the key that all the complicated schemes of United Nations cannot duplicate. But though we fail in our efforts to maintain the peace, the sacrifice of our dead has not been in vain, for, with each succeeding war the spirit of man rebels more and more against needless destruction. He is caused to search afresh for the way to tho goal toward which he has pressed throughout centuries of civilization. Each sacrifice has been rewarded with a refreshing of spirit in those who lived in stronger determination that it must not happen again. And so today we pay tribute to those who fought that this world might be a better place in which to live; tribute to the living and to the dead heroes 'till !

Future Peace or War Seen Resting On Russian Action CHARLESTON, W. Va., May 29 The Russians have just about reached the limit of their legitimate expansion for purposes of security, and if they keep on reaching a dangerous situation may arrive, DeWitf Mackenzie, Associated Press foreign news analyst, said in an address here today. Mackenzie, whose daily Inter pretive column on world events Is published in more than 800 newspapers, spoke at Morris Har vey College's 58th annual com mencement program, where he was awarded the honorary degree of doctor of laws. Mackenzie told the audience: "Britain and America have con ceded (much) readily. They have given way to some other demands unwillingly, with the desire of maintaining frinnHli rnlntlnno among the Big Three. wiinin recent weeks, however, Russia has put forward demands Which indicate that she has am- hitinns piittinir ricpntu nnrl Han. gerously into Britain's position in me ivieuiterranean ineaier. "That is the position today, and it is a dangerous one. Constantly We hPSr the nitnetinn r-alont whether there must be another war. "I'm afraid I wouldn't be worthy of trust as a professional analyst of foreign affairs if I should stand here today and as sure you that there was no dan ger of war. "There Is a danjer, But I am equally sure that war need not euuiu ii an oi me uig inrce wisn to avoid It. "If (Russia) stops whore she is now, all will be well, but If she keeps on reaching, then it will be apparent that there are no limits to her ambitions." Building Material Main Obfective of Emergency Law SEATTLE. Mav 29 ) Build ing materials are the immediate objective of the National Housing Agency under provisions of the veterans tmergency Housing Act (the Patman bill) signed by Presi dent Truman, said George W. Coplen, regional housing expedi ter, yesterday. "Under FHA Title VI, as ai.-ended," he added, "the FHA may now insure mortgage loans up to yu per cent of the necessary current cost," including land. Un der FHA's regular Title II opera tions, 'appraised value' deter mines the loan amount." Coplen also recited that the for mer limitation of $o,400 for a mortgage loan on a single-family house may be raised under the new act to $8,100 by the FHA commissioner, if he finds it not feasible in a particular area to construct dwellings at the lower prices without sacrificing sound standards. Comparable adjust ments are provided on two, three and four-family dwellings. Mort gage interest rates are set at 4 per cent maximum annually, plus S per cent for mortgage insurance premium. "But,"' Coplen added, "liberal ized financing is not the answer in Itself. Private enterprise must produce decent housing at rents or sales within the reach of fami lies needing homes. "Title VI will not be used to sustain current high building costs. The government wants to assist private enterprise to move further into areas of low rental and low price housing for the mass of the American people." (The Veterans Housing Act pro vides that priority-assisted hous ing, built for sale, shall be held for veterans for 60 days while that built for rent must be held 30 days for veterans.) U. S. Intervenes in Reds' . Expulsion of Writer WASHINGTON, May 29 WP) The State Department said yes terday tho United Slates has in tervened with Russia In an at tempt to prevent expulsion from Romania of Ruben Markham, Christian Science Monitor corre spondent. Bucharest dispatches said Markham was still in Constanta, and that his departure has been delayed pending a decision "from a high level." The Soviet military command in Romania issued the expulsion older, claiming Markham had stated in a "political speech" that war between Russia and the United States was Inevitable. Markham denied making any po litiral speeches. The forest area nf tho TTnitnH States, exclusive of Alaska, is larger than the combined area of r ranee, uermany, Norway, Italy, Sweden, Belgium and the Netherlands.
