EVERYBODY would have lis tened. see HE spoke once, and only onoe, of his face to-faoe talk with Sta lin at the Kremlin a couple of weeks ago. Stalin told him then, he report ed, that the Big Four powers U. S., Britain, Russia, France) might be able to compromise ALL their major differences "alter they have EXHAUSTED THEM SELVES IN DISPUTE." STALIN'S statement is EX TREMELY significant. If we read carefully between the lines. It comes pretty close to providing an answer to the $H question: "What la Russia up to?" - -If the world exhausts itself In dispute over what Is to be done (vith Germany, ideal conditions .Till be created In Europe for the 'triumph of communism. Com 1 muniem Is the last refuge of the despairing. It moves In when con ditions have got so bad they -cant get any worse and people .'are willing to ACCEPT ANY THING. There la plenty of starvation in Europe now. There will be - MORE starving people In Europe ; If the disagreement over what la lo be done with Germany goes on to the point of "exhaustion." " MfHENEVER Europe Is nearly ; if enough starved, when there Is no longer any visible hope of '. anything belter, Russia will no . longer have to Impose eommun '. Ism on Europe by FORCE. ' When that time comes, Europe '- will turn to communism as Indl ; vlduals who are without hope for - the future turn to suicide. SO, you see, It may be that what Russia is up to Is WAITING and STALLING until chaos Is ! complete, anticipating that when - this moment arrives communism .; will sweep through Europe as a ' prairie fire sweeps through dry . grass. CECRETARY MARSHALL J makes It plain that In his opinion we miismt permit our selves to be stalled until chaos has time to get here. He says: "I believe that action can nnt await compromise through ex haustion. Whatever anion Is nec essary to meet these pressing problems must lie taken without delay." He adds: 'The patient Is sinking while the doctor's deliberate." THERE is an Interesting and highly significant minor de velopment In the news of the week.

STANTON The 100th anniversary of the first immigrant cabin to be erected in the Oakland vicinity is to be celebrated at Oak land May 3 and 4. Every section of Douglas County is rich in pioneer lore. Each settlement has a background of early-day experience in which hardship and suffering are closely related to happi ness and deep satisfaction in creation of homes from a fertile wilderness. Celebrations, such as the one planned at Oakland, have special significance in the fact that they serve to inform newcomers and the younger generation of historical facts, building greater appreciation of the heri tage of pioneer spirit and industry which carved dwelling places for those of us who have been so richly endowed because of the fortitude and determination of our pioneers. We who live today in fertile valleys with all the conveniences of modern life can better appreciate our homes if we but know and understand the foundation of suffering, tragedy and privation upon which they are built. If we can but ab sorb the spirit of those who came to carve homes from a primitive wilderness, we will generate greater civic pride and determination to carry on their work by building more elaborately upon the foundation they provided for us. Back in 1813 the Applegates began searching for a new route through Southern Oregon, and three years later an immigrant train rolled over the difficult trail bound for the Willamette Valley. But, from time to time, members of the party, finding likely homesites, dropped out to build cabins and start life in the new surroundings. One member of the 1846 party was the Rev. J. A. Cornwall, a Methodist minister, who, with his family, found a beautiful spot over looking Cabin Creek, a short distance from the present town of Oakland. A cabin was constructed and the family spent a difficult winter in 18 16-47, being saved from starvation only by the bountiful supply of game to be found in the valley they called home. Gradually more and more people came to the pleasant settlement, which became known by the name of Underwood. Among the settlers was Alonzo F. Brown, who left his home in Stratford, N. H., at the age of 14 years to make his own way. He had been quite successful in business and in 1859 crossed the plains to Oregon. He led an adventurous life for several years, particularly while operating pack trains and general merchandise stores in Eastern Oregon and Idaho during the gold rush days from 1861 to 1865. It was in 1865 that Brown, returning from the Idaho country, bought the John II. Medley donation land claim, three miles from what was then the town of Oakland, having been so named because its plat resembled an oak tree. He then returned to the Idaho country where he continued packing, stock trading and merchandising until 1870. In 1871, while clerking in an Oakland store, 'he overheard a conversation between an agent of the O. &. C. Railroad Company and a farmer' by the name of Barnett concerning railroad right of way. Barnett wanted nothing to do with railroads be cause they spoiled good farming ground. Brown succeeded in buying Barnett's property and, after selling the former Medley place, annexed two adjoining tracts, which com bined to form the present Oakland townsite. Brown donated a depot and warehouse site to the 0. & C, and offered free sites to the business men of Oakland if they would move to the new town. Gradually New Oakland absorbed businesses from Old Oakland, and resident fol lowed to the new location. Thus from a crude immigrant cabin to a modern city, currently enjoying industrial boom growth, Oakland has had a full century of interesting history. It is well that the stories of Oakland's early days be brought forth to furnish inspiration for those responsible for its future growth. Dance Funds Give Cops New Uniforms Roseburg's police blossomed In new. blue, summer uni form shirts and caps today, which they will wear as long as the hot weather lasts. Chief of Police O. A. Kennerly said. The new uniforms were pur chased with proceeds from the Policemen's Ball, which will be staged tonight in the Roseburg Armory. The shirts are light blue with dark blue shoulder straps. Uniform caps are navy blue. "We want to extend our appre ciation to the people of Roseourg and vicinity for their cooperation In making our dance a success," Chleb Kennerly said. Mayor and Mrs. Albert G. Fie gel will lead the grand march at ihe ball. Members of the City Council, other civic dignitaries, and members of the police force will follow behind the mayor and his lady. The ball is scheduled to begin at 8 o'clock. Music will be fur nished by Vic Rice and his or chestra. Other proceeds from tonight's dance will go Into a fund to be used to buy and equip a police radio system, Kennerly said. Population, Wages On Farms Show Increase A few more people on farms, ?etting higher wages, was the arm-labor picture as of April 1. By regions, increases in wage rates ranged from 7 to 11 per cent, except In the Pacific Coast states where Ihe average increase was 5 per cent. Nationally, aver age wage rates mis year amount ed to almost lour times the 1910 14 "Parity" period. About 9,242, 000 people were at work on the nation's farms, including 7,571, 000 family workers and 1,671,000 hired workers. Both groups were slightly larger than a year ago.
