been a thriller.
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. President Truman signs a
law suspending until March 31,
1949. the present four-cents per
pound Import duty on COPPER.
Copper is one of the things we
have always had plenty of. There
have been times In the past when
it almost seemed we had too
.' much of II.
We are realizing now that we
haven't ENOUGH cupper to meet
present needs. Hence this law to
let It come in from abroad duty
free.

the future we must look In

OAKLAND'S HERITAGE
By CHARLES V. 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.
