1 Actual Meaning Of Appeasement Lost to Wallace By JAMES THRASHER "I don't know of ti single Ameri can principle or public interest which would have to be sacrificed to ,make peace with Russia, " says Henry A. t Wallace, "and I don't know of a single principle or public interest we aren't sacri ficing to suport this suicidal "get tough" policy of the present ad ministration. It would be interesting if Mr. Wallace would explain this ex travagant statement. But since his negative assertion amounts to a confesion of ignorance, an ex planation may not be possible. So an attempt to enlighten him might be made here on behalf of the probable 40,000,000 or more persons who do not agree with Mr. Wallace and who will not vote for him in November. Let us take just one American principle the belief that all men are endowed by their Creator with the unalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That principle we have sacrificed in the case of the peoples in those countries that have suffered political conquest by Russia. Sacrifice Unavoidable If today we were to make peace with Russia we should have to sacrifice that same principal in the case of unconquered Europe and Asia and untimately, perhaps, of ourselves. For any end. of the cold war at present would have to be on Russia's terms. The Soviets have the armed might and the strategic advantage. We have only potential strength. Even if our foreign aid suc ceeds in its purpose, quickly and completely, even if we mobilize our potential strength so that Russia will not dare wage war against us, the people of the satel lite countries will still be sacrific ed. For the peace that we must achieve with Russia will have to be a peace based on compromise and the status quo. Maybe Mr. Wallace does not believe that the Russian leaders and their Communist agents in the conquered lands have taken the life of some who have op posed them. Maybe he does not believe that communism forbids the liberty to disagree and critize without fear, a liberty which he himself exercises so freely in his attack on the government's for eign policy. Facts Being Tailored Maybe Mr. Wallace thinks that, under imposed Communism, there are no obstacles to the pur suit of happiness. Otherwise he could not have made the state ment above with the sincerity his admirers are always boasting about. "It isn't appeasement," says the third-party candidate, "to urge strong controls pn international cartels who are dictating our foreign policy or to urge the building of a world federation with a police force greater than the military force of any individ ual power." The talk about international cartels is simply his own accusa tion, frequently made but never proved. As for the world police force. Mr. Wallace seems to over look the UN efforts to create one. These efforts have not succeeded, and for a familar reason Rus sian disagreement. Under the Russian porposal this force could not be stronger than that of any individual power. For Russia wants an equal con tribution from each of the Big Five powers. For instance, the U. S. would contribute only as many airplanes as China and only as many battleships as Russia. So it appears again that Mr. Wallace is tailoring fact and rea son to suit his own purposes. And in spite of all his denials, those purposes still have all the ap pearances of being directed to ward appeasement. Daun Lillard Completes Cruise Around World Daun Carmen Lillard, seaman, first class, USN, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Lillard. 228 Havnes St., Roseburg, has arrived in San Diego, Calif., aboard the seaplane tender USS Flovds Bay, after completing a 10-month cruise around the world. During the cruise, the crew spent liberty In many countries including Greece, Egypt, Japan and China. Highlight of the cruise was a visit by King Paul I of Greece, when the ship cele brated the Fourth of July at Piraeus Harbor, Athens, Greece. While in the Orient, the ship established a temporary sea drome at Choo San Archipelago, China, a group of small islands south of the mouth of the Yangtze River. Due to one of the most unusual typhoon seasons In the Western Pacific, seaplane tending operations were inter rupted on several occasions. The Floyds Bay visited Guam and Pearl Harbor en route from the Asiatic Theater to San Diego lor relitung. 1 JSSSffi 31D.5" Me charge fcstirna"; h advance. - MRER I 11X r W.-ifl M:3 i- 4T tj ' '.-jr Loggers Seek Ban Against Mohawk Timber Contract PORTLAND, April 8 (. An Injunction suit is planned by in dependent Oregon logging operat ors and lumbermen to halt any contract signing in the proposed Mohawk River agreement involv ing state, federal and private timber. Ray .Brown, attorney for the Western Association of Lumber men and Loggers, said he would file the suit In Federal Court tomorrow. He said this would be in addition to the present suit before the court In which the group contests constituionallty of the proposed agreement. Involved are tracts in Lane and Linn county. The federal timber agencies want to enter into a sustained yield program with the Fischer Lumber Co., Mar cola. The plaintiffs argue it 'amounts to an exclusive buying oner to the private company and will exclude others. Super-Secretary Aim of National Assn., 2 Colleges Bv JANE EADS WASHINGTON Bosses, soon you may be able to get the super secretary. The girls are trying to set up for themselves a degree, or rating, similar to that earned by the Certified Public Account ant and the Certified Life Under writer. CPS would stand for Cer tified Professional Secretary. The idea was started by the National Secretaries Association, which boasts 9,000 members in 250 chapters over the United States. In coooeration with the association, the universities of Kansas and Tulsa (Okla.) are conducting research with a view to setting up some sort of exam ination that may be set up by state boards. Miss Louise Ilelfrich, top secre tary with the National Savings and Loan League here, is chair man of the CPS Committee of the National Secretaries Associa tion. Tentative requirements for CPS candidates have been suggested by the association s chapters: 1. There probably will be a $15 fee; 2. Examinations would be given twice a year. If at first you don't succeed, you can try again; 3. To pass the exams one must make a percentage of 85 and have a knowledge of office machines. Though the super-secretary may not be required to use a compto meter, an adding machine or what have yog, she must be able to see that others operate them properly; 4. The applicant must nave two or tnree years experi ence In a bonaflde secretarial capacity. She must be at least 21 years of age and have at least a high school education. To Elevate Profession Tests no doubt will bo given In commercial law, Enelish, grammar, spelling, punctuation, synonyms, definitions, shorthand and transcription, mathematics, accounting, banking, interview and nersonality. There will also probably be several elective phases such as foreign languages, legal terminology and so forth. "Senti ment among secretaries," savs Miss Helfrich, "is to make the examination's requirements high enough so that we will be proud of the rating we achieve. "The whole Idea Is to elevate the secretarial profession. We have no intention of organizing a union, or anything like that." The National Secretaries As sociation was organized five years ago and has its national head quarters in Kansas City. It will hold it annual convention In Los Angeles the latter part of June. "Better Letter Better Living," is the organization's motto. The initials "B" and "L" figure prom inently on the members' pins, which are shaped like spread wings. Miss Helfrich, who is treasurer of the association's "Presidential Chapter," here has been a secretary in Washington 13 years.

TUESDAY, APAIL 13, I94S Death' 'i'K ? 3.1 it i IHEA leltohotol -Mall I ft. i March Openings For Jobs Fewer, Due to Weather Fewer employment possibili ties were open In the Roseburg area last month than at any time during the past several months. Temporary attempts at resuming operations in the woods has generally resulted in sudden cessations due to abrupt weath er changes, according to the monthly labor market bulletin issued by the Roseburg office of the Oregon State Employ ment Service. The report continues: With fewer job openings avail able than at any time in recent months, shortages In workers are limited largely to the sendee and clerical fields. In this group are a number of openings for sten ographers and sales persons and a few in the skilled brackets. During March the number of applicants for u n e m ployment compensation increased. This was due to the heavy snow condi tions that curtailed logging op erations in the county. At the end of the month there were 699 active claims on file which Included 199 veteran claims and and 127 female claims. Newcomers to the area increas ed 34 per cent over the month of February. The majority of these were seeking work in re sponse to publicity given Rose burg on a national and state wide basis recently. It Is noted Judge by FROZEN FOODS gg' OliverWillis that there was an Increase of 324 ln-mlgrants over the same period one year ago. Unskilled Jobs Scarce Fewer employment possibilities were available at the end of the month than at any time during the past several months. Of the 41 openings, 63 per cent were In the clerical, sales and servlep fields. There were a few In the skilled and semi-skilled brackets, but not an opening was available In unskilled fields. Construction work is practically at a standstill, and that coupled with the cur tailed lumber industry activities, accounts for the absence of open ings for unskilled workers. With the exception of fluctu at Ions caused by different storms, the employed total has not chang ed. The month of April should show definite gains in employ ment providing that the antici pated fair weather materializes. Work in new construction, re- fialrs, farming and lumber is be ne held back for this reason. The supply of workers at this time is adequate to meet the demand. There are a few skilled positions open that are difficult to fill, but for the malorlty of jobs, workers may easily be ob tained. Little change In housing facili ties has been noted. What con struction Is now under way, and that which is anticipated, has been contracted for upon com pletion. Rental units for families are non-existent, but rooms are generally to be found for single persons. No snake has eyelids or exter nal openings for its ears. FiA vox! Watch Finances Closely, Advice Given Farmers PULLMAN, OF) Farmers have a warning from William R. Odell, Jr., Chicago, to watch their finances closely. , , "There has been only a light Upward teriul. In farm mortgage debt during the last year," the treasurer of International Harv ester Company said, "but even Hotel Rose COFFEE SHOP The Hotel Rose Coffee Shop brings you these plus the assurance that all foods are prepared on the highest levels of cleanliness and sanitation. Try the special Family Dinner, served each Sunday. this Is sufficient to call for some warning." "If farmers can't free them selves from debt now, they never can." Odell, opening speaker at the annual Northwest Banker's con ference at Washington State Col lege, predicted that agriculture will be one of the most stable elements of the national econo my. .....
