Z In this country, men can't be compelled to work if they don't want to work. We settled that ' Issue in four bloody years of war in the early 6Cs. We aren't likely to go back on the settlement. I Slavery is dead forever, so far as the United States Is concerned. ' The point in this miner case is I that ONE MAN ordered the Z miners out on strike and refused to send them back to work (pend- ing a settlement of their dispute " with their employers) when or ; dered to do so by a COURT. It is i obvious that if our courts can be disobeyed with Impunity our - whole system (upon which our I liberties are based) would go to pot. In such an event, ANY ONE J ;MAN with a considerable dis- ciplined following (say the leader ;,ot the Communist party in the United States) could weaken us jJatally at a critical moment. i Wo can't permit that to hap. 1 pen. t THE trouble with John L. Lewis I Is that he has too much power. So Implicit is the obedience which " his followers yield to him that Z there is practically NOTHING he tan't do. The clear lesson of his- tory is that power like that has 2 ruined almost everyone who has - -possessed it. . ' Nobody has charged Lewis with being an enemy of his country. . IBut-.-if It should develop that " his power over his followers Is I "so absolute that It can not be ; .challenged even by the COURTS i it might go to his head to such T "an extent that he WOULD be- - come an enemy. It might reach - the point where he would say to " himself: "I AM AMERICA." Supreme, unchallenged power " In one pair of hands has ALWAYS been dangerous. It is dangerous - still. We mustn't let John L. " Lewis, or anybody else, get big . ger than the law. IT Isn't a question of compelling , I men to work against their will i If any miner decides he doesn't want to mine coal any longer, he can quit his job and every sincere 1 thinker in America will back him ' up In his right to do so. What we have to prevent is the " acquisition of complete, unchul " lengeable power BY ONE MAN over the actions of hundreds of ' thousands of disciplined followers Whenever we permit that, we're goners. I Skies of Italy Brighter, Pope's Election Comment ROME, April 33. ItVt Pope " Pius XII, in a formal statement to the American press, said yes t terday the Italian elections "will be memorable in the annals of Italian hlstorv." "An entire people," the Pope ; said, "has elven prooi oi us grave . sense of civic duty and the skies of Italy are brighter with hope WWW W" The Pope Implicitly deplored a "the error" of those who voted for the Communists. - "Our own paternal heart turns. saddened by the spectacle of so many, who In their egoism or . blindness stubbornly held to the - path that can lead only to clis- aster for body and soul alike", ho T eatd. i "May He in His merry and love - Illumine their minds, so that thoy - may see the error of their way. ' CATASTROPHE - CARLSBAD, N. M., April 23. (jP) Tom, the cat, long amazed workers by his ability to open a door latch and enter a potash . mine hoist house. But when a dog look cnase, " Tom forgot his learning. . He jumped for tlie nearest pole. '- But It was made of steel. Tom fell 940 feet to his death in the mine shaft. " ' ' OREGON MOTHER OF 1948 By CHARLES V. STANTON Mrs. Stanley L. Kidder of Roseburif, has been elected Oregon Mother of 1948 a well deserved honor. As proven by this and previous selections, the committee, charged with the task of making the choice from a large number of women nominated of the state, is not influenced by the wealth or social status of the candidate, but seeks those qualities which may furnish a source of inspiration to others. At the same time the award is not to one individual alone, in general, calling attention is as much, or more, deserving tion as is the First Citizen honored for achievements in Mrs. Kidder was not chosen superior to thousands upon mothers. She was selected, rather, because she is typical, or a representative, of the ideal So, while she is entitled honor bestowed upon her, she mothers everywhere who are nition through the merited resentative. Much mention is made in service, her work in fraternal orders, with parent-teacher associations, with the Red Cross and in religious activities, It is evident, as one inquires the community and its organizations, that the labors repre sent a deep devotion to family. The character of a commu nity, the efficiency of its schools, the qualities of religion and charity make deep and lasting impressions upon the community's youth and profoundly influence personalities in later life. Thus the responsibility of motherhood carries with it a responsibility in community service which all too many overlook or neglect but which in the achievements of the Oregon Mother of 1948. It is therefore with great pride that the Roseburg com munity acclaims and congratulates Mrs. Kidder, and appre ciation is given the Roseburg Business and Professional Women's Club which sponsored her nomination. THE COST OF RESTORATION Earlier this week we had a most interesting interview with Charles J. Graham, president of the Pittsburgh and West Virginia railroad, who visited briefly in Roseburg. Traveling in a luxurious private car, he is making an ex tended tour of the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia, particularly contacting representatives of the firms which route traffic over the railroad He is very enthusiastic over burgh to restore some of the of the city's planning commission, he hus helped in forming plans to convert many business blocks into huge public parks. A campaign has largely eliminated the industrial city's smoke and "smog." Many blocks of unsightly structures are being removed and will be replaced by parks, playgrounds and off-street parking garages. We were particularly interested in pUns for stream im provement for which he said Pittsburgh alone is planning to spend more than $80 million. The great city is situated at the junction of the Monongahela and Allegheny rivers where they unite to form the Ohio River. Today those streams are but open sewers. Hundreds of cities and towns pour in sew age and industrial waste. Virtually no fish life exists in these heavily polluted waters. Yet within a few years, according to present plans, these streams will again be filled with clear and reasonably pure water. But it will cost many millions of dollars. Here in the Pacific Northwest we are experiencing ex panding population, business and industry. Our streams are becoming more and more polluted daily. We are making a weak control effort but are Should we not take heed of now to strengthen our anti-pollution campaign and save the millions of dollars restoration if wc neglect the task now? Fire Fighting Methods Slated for Changes Reorganization of fire fighting methods on the Umpoua Nation al Forest will be reviewed here Tuesday by L. L. ColvlUe of Portland, assistant chief of the division fire control at the re gional office, said Ray B. Hamp ton, fire control officer for the Umpqua Forest. Changes in transportation, greater mileage of logging roads, accumulation of more cut-over areas make necessary a review of the fire organization for the coming season, Hamilton said. Colville Is making a similar sur vey on other national forests of the Northwest region. Most birds brood their cees for periods ranging from 13 days to eight weeks.

Forester Tells Of His Observations While in Russia "If within the next 30 years Russia becomes half as pood as the Communists think she is now, that will be the greatest achieve ment oi modern History! ' That was a statement bv Al- I b" 'j0 n,s 1 Bau aPfDraser I Management h'erel'who toid'lhe Roseburg Rotary Club Thursday of his experiences as a forester in Russia. Carlson was employed as a forest engineer with the Karelian Timber Trust of the Soviet gov ernment between 1933 and 1936. His remarks were based on per sonal observation of social and economic conditions there. "I could not have chosen a more difficult subject," he said. "The importance of Russia (In world affairs) has been gaining." He explained that that nation has been an "unknown quantity" and would be better understood if the fact were realized that Russia is distinct and apart from Western Europe. People Kept In Ignorance Russia was isolated in the da"s of the empire and continued so after the Bolshevik revolution of 1917. The people of Russia have been kept In ignorance of world affairs and were "indifferent'' to the overthrow of the Czar. Carlson said he believes the "Iron Curtain" serves two pur poses to keep the Soviet citizen from knowing what goes on in the world outside, and to keep tne outsioe worm irom Knowing what goes on inside Russia. "A Russian raised under Soviet tutelage and emerging for the first time in the non-Soviet world is a strange and bewildered crea ture," Carlson quoted a Red of ficial as saying. Carlson described the Red purge of 1936. when hieh Soviet officials and army officers were executed for treason for their "friendliness" to Nazi Germanv. The government signed a treaty of friendship with German- in Anyone hoping to "understand" Russia should study its history and economic conditions, Carlson reminded. The nation is still in dustrially weak. Production falls far short of that of the United btates. Three Judges Must Hear Suit Against Timber Contract PORTLAND.
