A strong, wise, sincere United Nations could step in as !the police step In when a private 1 feud flares up among individuals. Soon everything would be OK " again. Instead of being strong, United 1 Nations is weak to the point of helpnessness. "HfH0 wrecked UN? , f That question Is about as help- ful to us now as the old one about J ! which came first, the hen or the egg. .UN is weak because the J ! United States and Russia, the only J ; countries in the world possessing . military power enough to handle J ; situations such as Palestine, can't work together. ! I Did we upset the Russians and ; start them oft on a crazy fear i ! binge? J ; Or did the Russians upset us? Those are questions that can ! 1 not be answered intelligently; J ; There is too much fear and bus- i plcion on both sides. When fear and suspicion get loose In the world intelligent co-operation be ', '. comes impossible. . IF you will look back calmly over the nearly three years that have ' elapsed since the shooting war I ended In Europe, you wlU find It 1 hard to believe that we are at . tault. ; Never was there such an out- pouring of good will from one ! people to another as that which went from the American people i to Russian people. We respected the battle they had put up against Nazi Germany. '. WE WANTED TO WORK WITH THEM. We felt that we , could work with them. But it didn't tum out that way, I UHY? J If Well, if it was merely a case of the American PEOPLE getting along with the Russitn PEOPLE, there would probably be little I trouble. Unfortunately the Rus- stan PEOPLE have little to say , about It. In Russia, too much power is lodged in too few hands. Ever since the world began, . trouble has followed when too I much power is held In too few hands too long.

STANTON Today marks the opening day of trout season and we can't keep our thoughts off fishing. We are green with envy for those more fortunate people who have an opportunity to go fishing, even if they don't catch anything, instead of being tied down to a job which permits little time for such recreation. While we pound the typewriter, chin with candidates and candidate representatives, answer the telephone, hear com plaints, and sneak out for a cup of coffee, many of our friends are snaking shiny trout from creeks and rivers, smelling the fresh odors of the great outdoors, swigging hill-billy coffee, flavored with wood ashes, and getting a breath of fresh air Into their lungs. But whenever we think of fishing we think of "incidental catch." ' ; . .' ' . - The incidental catch clause was a joker slipped into fish ing legislation at the last session of the legislature and, while it applies to all coastal waters where Commercial fishing is permitted, the Umpqua was made the "goat" be cause of legislative efforts to limit net fishing to shad and striped bass only. We have a fairly accurate picture of "incidental catclj" now, and if the take of game fish was "incidental," we sug gest a change in the definition of the word. The catch of striped bass, official records show, amounted to .004 per cent of the total commercial catch on the Umpqua. Com mercial fishermen took 2,826 pounds of striped bass as compared to an "incidental" catch of 1,464 pounds of Chi nook salmon, 71,019 pounds of steelheads and 58,185 pounds of silverside salmon, in addition to the shad catch. ' 1 Steelheads counted over the dam at Winchester this 'year numbered about 1,600 less than last year. This is interest ing in view of the fact that commercial nets took 8,343 steelheads during October, November and December "in cidentally," of course. They caught 14 striped bass during the same period. - If you want more complete figures, here they are, in pounds: , May ; June ........ July ... August .... SepL ........ Oct Nov Dec. Steal.

Under rules promulgated by the Fish Commissi!)..1 fo this year, however, shad nets will go into the river May 10! Fishing may be carried on at night from May 10 to July 1. It will be noted that during May and June last year com mercial nets took 665 pounds of Chinook salmon, chiefly small fish, and only 82 pounds of steelheads, while catching 548,738 pounds of shad. We do not believe anyone would raise any considerable objection to "incidental catch" on that basis. After July 1, according to the Fish Commission's order, striped bass may be taken only during daylight hours until Sept 15. In this connection, it will be noted that virtually no fall Chinook salmon nor steelheads were taken prior to Sept 15, while very few striped baas were caught after that date. Cnsaation oi not fishimr from bent. 15 to May 10 is ordered. Thanks to the Fish Commission, it is possible a few fish will be able to get upstream this year to improve future fishing conditions. . .

Cooperation Of Anglers Urged In Saving Fish Toss Back Spawned-Ouf Steelhead For Renewed Life Cycle, Plea Issued The general trout season. ODen- Ine today, is two wpeks later than usual but should be delayed another two or three weeks in the Umpqua Basin, according to Ross Newcomb, Game Depart ment biologist, in charge of the Umpqua River study. Newcomb is urging cooperation of anglers in conservation and thus prevent furtuie damage to the fishery re source. '- ; Due to prolonged high water and unusually low water tempera tures, the stelhead spawning season is from three weeks to a month later than normal, New comb reports. Ordinarily the spawning season is nearing an end by May 1, Newcomb says, oui inis year ine main river and nearly every tributary teems with spawning or spawned-out steel- head. - These fish will return to the ocean, if unmolested. They will recover from bruising received in their migration and will 're turn to spawn next year. They win migrate to tno spawning beds year after year as long as they survive. ; Following spawning, however, they are hungry and will freelv take bait or artifical lures. Many will be caught by opening-day anglers. They have little food value and are far from bing a prime fish. If they are return ed to the stream carefully they will, in most instances, recover and complete their return migra tion. Newcomb urges anglers to re turn spent steclhead to the waters from which they are caught. Anglers also are urged to avoid disturbing spawning beds as much as possible. Conservation Urged With the cooperation of the Roseburg Rod & Gun Club, New comb is placing "Kill Less, Catch More" signs, af all principal fish ing sites. Thetheory behind these signs is that virtually all trout caugnt in tne umpqua Basin are anadiomous or migratory fish. The fish the angler terms "trout" usually are small steelhead or salmon. If permitted to reach the ocean, tney would mature and return tull grown to luwiinh lood. Thus the conservation pplicy approved for the Umpqua; Is to catch fewer but larger fish. (1 ' The "Kill Less, Catch . JVjoVe" puniy is oasis ior mo mcn trout regulations in cnattal waters. During the carry Tpart of the trout season fish in coastal waters run largely to six and seven-inch salmon and steelhead en route from spawning beds to the ocean. If fishing is confined to trout eight inches or more in length, millions of steelhead and salmon will be saved to reach maturity. ( The 8-inch minimum length ap plies to trout taken from the Umpqua river below The Forks and to all tributaries entering the Umpqua in the tidewater section. In all other Umpqua waters the minimum length is six inches. exceDt in waters sDeci- fically closed. Closed to trout fishing until June 15 are Fish, Buckeye, Cliff, and Twin Lakes, and Fish Lake creek. The trout season is also closed in tidewater until June 15. The open season on Chinook salmon angling continues until June 1, with the North Umpqua deadline at the Rock Creek pool, and the South Umpqua deadline at Coffee Pot Side Camp. The steelhead deadline is at Coffee Pot Side Camp on the South Um pqua, but will be moved to Jack son creek after May 31.

LsassssissstBta!j What do you desire most in a watch? Appearance? Time-keeping? Utility? Time-keeping is the primary concern when buying a watch but bear in mind the qualities appearance ana auraoiuty. The plumber, the carpenter or mlllworkcr all active men should own vatchos that are able to stand the gaff, and there are several watches that fill the bill and a lot more that are claimed to be capable of "taking it" that can't. Of the many shock-proof patents only two actually fill the bill, these features are called "incabloc" and "incaflex." Incaflex is used exclusively by the Wyler company and is covered by a good guarantee. Incahloc is used in many Swiss watches and is guaranteed only to the extent the jeweler is trustworthy. (Some companies who make serv iceable watches for rough treatment are Tavanncs, Longines, Tissot, Croton, and Ulysse Nardin.) I ' Many watches are claimed to be waterproof and here again Wyler leads the field with a fine guarantee. Many other watches which are claimed to be waterproof have access of brass covered with chromium; the chromium soon is electrochemically dissolved by an action of your skin leaving the brass case to withstand elements which it simply can't do. Stainless steel and solid gold are by far the best for waterproof qualities. Better be absolutely sure your jeweler is reliable before you attempt to buy a "waterproof" watch you'll have to depend upon his integrity any way because no watch is better than the jeweler's own guarantee behind it. Dress watches sell more readily than any other and therefore there is an almost unlimited market of this type of watch. Most have gold-filled or solid gold cases. Actual value lies not with appearance but with time-keeping abilities and here again you must rely on your jeweler and his guarantee. Most watches carry a factory guarantee but only one, Wyler again, offers a really substantial watch-life guar antee. All others must be backed by the jeweler who sells the watch therein lies the pitfall for many unhappy watch-owners. For unless your jeweler offers you his personal guarantee you nave little redress when you discover the watch is not what you expected. Knudtson's maintain a watch guarantee policy which has been in effect over half a century. We will guarantee any watch purchased in our store to keep accurate time for the life of the watch. This guarantee is tempered by the inherent quality of the watch, whether it be a medium or fine quality watch in the beginning. We do all cleaning and adjusting on your watch for one year at no charge. And wc guarantee all its repairs and adjustments, providing it has not been worked on by another watchmaker. Whatever quality you want in a watch, whatever price you are prepared to pa v. whatever service you expect after purchase remember no watch is anv better than the integrity of the Jeweler who sells it. In this respect Knudtson's maintain justifiable pride. Certified Gemologist Hrgiittfrrd JctrcU r American Gem Society JEWELCRS 103 N. Jackson
