Fund Reduction
s Affects Program
a SPOKANE, May 28. 7P C.
Guard Davidson, assistant secre-
tary of the interior, said today a
; "hold back provision" writen into
the 1949 appropriations bill will
- reduce Columbia basin expend!
J tures by an additional $3,500,000
- to $4,000,000.
The bill, approved yesterday by
- Ihe House and lorwarded to the
Senate, provides $45,312,000 for
!! Grand Coulee Dam and the Co-
lumbia Iiasin In the fiscal year
- starting July first. The ligure Is
approximately $5,000,000 less
- than the amount requested by
: president 1 ruman.
" 'The reduction from the Presi-
dent's request is more than the
J obvious $5,000,000," Davidson
said. 'There Is another reduction
; of from $3,500,000 to $4,500,000,
I a concealed cut, resulting from a
holdback provision written into
the bill."
. Davidson said the measure re-
quires the reclamation bureau 1o
'. hold back an amount equal 1o
about 15 per cent of the work to
be done under contract in the
. succeeding fiscal year.
Davidson said framers of the
; appropriation bill held that con-
tiiiuing contracts, a practice of
the reclamation bureau for many
years, violate the anti-deficiency
. law unless funds are held back
' for continuing work In part of the
" succeeding year.
r He said that in light of the bill,
J Columbia flasin construction
l. plans must be reevaluated.

THE COST OF WAR
Observance of Memorial Day should have special signifi
cance this year. As we honor our dead, and particularly
those who sacrificed their lives to preserve the nation, it is
well that we take inventory of the cost of war not a cost
measured in money but, rather, the expenditure in lives of
our finest and best young men. If we rightly appraise the
cost of war, we will redouble our efforts for peace, but only
witli the determination that the cause for which our honored
dead sacrificed their lives shall not be lost to the world but
shall advance even though
and tears" may be required.
No major advance in civilization ha3 been made without
its blood sacrifice. Christianity was baptized in the blood of
martyrs who died in Roman
under persecution in the Dark Ages. Its evangelical activi
ties were stimulated by divergent schools of thought among
its leaders. Today Christianity is the fundamental civilizing
force at work in a combative
because of the blood sacrifice of its martyrs.
Millions of lives have paid
new and unique political theory that men are "endowed by
their Creator with certain inalienable rights," as voiced in
the American Declaration of Independence, initiated a strug
gle for personal freedom that still continues. The release of
peoples from political slavery has been a long hard sruggle,
which still is far from its conclusion. While men and nations
have been striving to free themselves from imperialism and
oppresive government, enemies of freedom have organized
their totalitarian theories and
place the yoke of dictatorship
But freedom has consistently
the cost has been high. Today we find more and more na
tions being released from imperialistic and colonial status
and elevated into the ranks
lowed birthplace of Christianity echoes today to gunfire as
a new state fights for its life.
But while some nations have made progress toward free
dom and democracy, others have been brought by force
under totalitarian dictation and slavery. The battle men have
been waging throughout centuries on the upward climb of
civilization still is in progress. The shadow of a third World
War a war more destructive, more terrifying than any that
has gone before spreads upon
darkens our days.
We cannot turn deaf ears
peoples of the world striving
yoke of oppression. Upon the
the robe of the champion of
today for leadership.
Ours are the ways of peace. We seek no quarrel. We covet
no land. We desire only harmony and peace. We mourn our
dead and pray that war shall not again engulf us. But peace
has its enemies. Christianity and. liberty are opposed by
forces of evil. Fear of power Is the only fear these enemies
know. They have no conscience and no sympathy. They can
be controlled only by police
So as we appraise the cost
that cost against the value of liberty and its preservation.
We must, as we count our sacrifice in years past, face deter
mination that those who died shall not have died in vain.
Keeping in mind the tremendous price we have paid for the
advance to date of Christianity
double our efforts to achieve the spread of our political
theory of personal liberty through every effort other than
war. We should strive to set up a police authority sufficient
to restrain aggression, but we Bhould never lose sight of the
goal, the ultimate elimination

DIAMONDS
"ARE COLOR
Yes, diamohds are color blind. How con seventy five per cent of all diamonds
sold in retail stores be "blue-white and perfect" while only one per cent of
all the diamonds mined are actually blue white and perfect? -
Is it possible that in
color? How do these
"blue-white"?
HUNDRED TO ONE
There is only one answer to this contradicting situation: Many of the dia
monds being sold os "blue-white" and perfect are not, but are of inferior
grades. The fact is, of one hundred carats of gem diamonds being mined,
only one carat can be classified as blue white and perfect. Originally the
term, blue-white was used to describe only the finest grade of diamonds. This
is hot true to day.
RED, WHITE or BLUE
The term "blue-white" has been so misused by jewelers that almost any
diamond might be called blue-white, even though it varies in color from fine
white to light yellow or even light brown. What then of the customer who is
comparing values? He is offered the choice, let us say, between a Vi carat
blue-white diamond (which is slightly yellow) for $500 at one store and a Vi
carot "blue white" diamond which is really fine white for the same price at
another store. Since the customer probably could not tell which diamond is
the better even if he could view them side by side he cannot be certain which
is the better value.
TEN STONES TEN COLORS
Because of the misuse of the term blue-white as used to describe the color of
a d'amond, the American Gem Society has long ago banned the use of the
term by its members. A system of color classification has been adopted which
hos standardized diamond grading beyond a doubt. Under this system the
diamonds are classed into 10 grades varying from fine white down to slightly
yellow. The class into which a diamond falls is determined by comparison
with ten master stones which are standardized for color, one stone for each
color grade. Thus a stone sold by a jeweler member of the Society in Berne
Switzerland, London, England, New York City or Roseburg will be uniform
for quality and value.
Color may determine the value of your diamond by one third The actual
value of o yellow or imperfect diamond rises and foils because the demand
for them is less; while the value of the fine white stone is steady as a result of
continuous demand.
Every owner of a fine diamond owns a part of the world's most precious and
rare commodities. That is because all of the gem diamonds in the world would
not fill a box four feet square.
