normal business disputes?
THERE Is something new In the
wind on Russia.
It seems that a few days ago
our ambassador in Moscow (Gen
eral Walter Bedell Smith) put the
situation up to Soviet Foreign
Minister Molotov. Why, Smith is
reported to have said to Molotov,
can't our two countries get to
gether and make a decent and
reasonable settlement of all of
this business that is tearing the
world asunder?
He is supposed ot have added
that the United States of America
ISN'T bluffing. Its Russian pol
icy, he is said to have told the
Russian foreign minister, has the
full support of an overwhelming
majority of the American people.
Our policy, he is reported to have
added, will be vigorously and
firmly prosecuted.
Even If there should be a de
pression, he is said to have In
formed Molotov, it won't affect
In any way our basic productive
capacity or change our minds as
lo what we are going to do about
It If Russia keeps on acting as
the hps been acting.
'
MOREOVER, General Smith is
said to have concluded, WE
THINK RUSSIA IS TO BLAME
FOR WHAT HAS HAPPENED.
So why don't we get together,
man to man, and talk It out to a
finish and then DO SOMETHING
CONSTRUCTIVE ABOUT IT?
'
ACCORDING to the Moscow
radio, Molotov Is supposed to
have answered that the Soviet
Union Is ready to pursue "a pol
icy of peace and co operation with
the United States," and to get
together with us for "discussion
and settlement" of differences
that have split the postwar world.
: t
IT sounds good. As a matter of
fact, It sounds too good to be
true. If we're wise, we'll keep our
fingers crossed. Wo certainly
mustn't let up any in our plans
to get strong enough to back up
any policy that we may announce.
But at least wo can watch In
terestedly what follows this new
and dramatic move on our part.

By CHARLES V. STANTON
Having outlined the duties of delegates to the national
nominating conventions and the method by which they are
selected, we list today the Republican candidates. Lest .demo
crats feel slighted by the greater prominence given the Re
publican candidates, we hasten to explain that no contest
exists on the Democratic ballot, where President Truman
appears as the only candidate, while the contest in the
Republican ranks is attracting nation-wide attention and
Republican voters will be far more interested in their choice
of delegates.
We are indebted for much of the following information
to C. C, Chapman, editor of Oregon Voter, as he has gone
to great pains to compile his sketches and put them in easy
form, thereby saving a lazy writer much effort.
Starting with the delegates-at-large, as they, will appear
In alphabetical order on the Republican ballot, Robert A.
Bennett is a Portland attorney, who has served three terms
as state representative from Multnomah County. He is a
former locomotive engineer and ice manufacturer. His slo
gan : "Let's Elect a Republican President and Congress in
November."
Henry Black, also of Portland, is a successful Portland
contractor who appears to get much pleasure in appearing on
the ballot at every election as a candidate for some office.
Editor Chapman refers to him as "self-stuffed, futile." His
slogan: Favoring Henry Black for President. Second
Choice: Bricker, Dewey or Taft."
Henry B. Cockrum is a resident of Portland. He formerly
was a bank cashier at Ontario, Ore., later serving with the
state corporation department as savings and loan liquidator.
He owns and manages farm properties in Malheur and Jef
ferson counties. His slogan : "Personally favor Stassen. Will
support choice of Republican voters."
Richard Deich is a Portland attorney. He is a veteran of
the Spanish-American War, served as state representative
and as district judge. His slogan: "Common sense admini
stration of our national affairs."

Farrell, secretary of state at the time of his death in an
airplane accident which also took the life of Governor Earl

three times ; is a former state representative and state sena
tor. His slogan: "Oregon's preferential choice for President;
State 8 rights and Anti-New Deal."
J. 0. Johnson, a resident of Tigard, has law offices in
Portland, operates a tax service, is head of an electrical
supply firm, and is a loan expert for savings and loan as
soriation. He' is a veteran of the first World war. His slo
gan ; "Let's have a change nominate a young man prefer
ably a veteran."
Phil Metschan, Portland hotelman, has long been a figure
in Republican state politics. Has served previously as dele
gate. His slogan: "Will vote for Republican voters' choice
for President and Vice-President."
Charles L. Paine, Portland, is well known for state leader
ship In the Townsend Pension movement. His slogan: "Van-
denborg if Dewey or Stassen release Peace Pay-as-you-go
Pensions."

veteran of Spanish-American and first World Wars, active
in political affairs. His slogan : "Republican Party will best
solve our problems as in the past."

and executive secretary of the Eagles lodgo. lie is active
in political affairs, particularly with the younger group. His

shoulders of two other "Indians"
In totem' pole fashion, standing
solemnly while a group of stu
dents in "locomotive" formation
entered and gave a few yells. As
the Indians knew nothing of foot

of pep and coordination into their
stunt. Serpentining Into the as
sembly behind five suited football
players, they gave a series of yells
and songs.
The seniors staged a colorful

in the fashion of Indian maidens
and boys wearing blankets sang
school songs and gave yells. :

II.WUjN of
The following statement con
cerning his candidacy for nom
ination for county commissioner
on tne uemocratic ticket was
submitted by Dick Baker, above,
and does not necessarily sienifv
endorsement by the Roseburg
iNtrwa-nuviuw.
"I was born In Bennington,
Kansas, Nov. 9, 1895, and moved
witn my parents to Colorado at
an early age. I am married and
have two children; both of age
IIUW.
"I first camo to Douglas
County in the spring of 1924 for
a visit with relatives. I was so
impressed with the friendliness
of the people, the natural beauty
aim puiumiai resources, rnat I
returned in the fall of 1927 to
make my permanent home. I
purchased a home and accepted
employment from one of the
large automobile agencies. I re
mained with this concern 13
years, being employed as sales
man and salesmanager. For the
past six years I have been with
the sheriffs office, holding the
position of criminal deputy.
"During the 21 years I have
resided in Douglas County, it has
been my pleasure and duty to
hnve traveled over all the countv
and state roads. Very few resi
dents of the county have a more
thorough knowledge of the entire
county road system than I pos
sess. "I have made no campaign
promises, nor have I any axe to
grind. If elected, I will meet each
problem as it arises and deal
with it to the best of my ability.
I realize the many problems con
fronting the County Court at this
time, for Douglas County is go
ing inrougn a vast cnange. i am
definitely for the best roads pos
sible, for nothing can contribute
more to the economic stability of
a county than the roads its citi
zens travel for work or pleasure."
