In a speech prepared for senate delivery, F'ulbright said policies advocated by Gen. Douglas Mac Arthur, including the proposal to bomb bases in Red China, might bring "a moment of imperial glory" but "set strongly against us nearly the whole of the free world." Fulright gave the President credit for past decisive actions that eoual i 'in " mat on, o ' age and effectiveness any ever taken by an American president." He added: "I-el us not permit his occasional lapses of speech or temperment, or his miseuided loyalty to un worthy iriends, to endanger a calm and objective judgment on the pres ent controversy." Fulbright did not name the "un worthy friends." Declaring "every government in the free world" opposes the Mac- I Arthur policies, he demanded: "Shall we. by our imoetuousness. 'cause our allies to fall away from I us, unlil disheartened and hope : less they make tl e best deal they : can with Russia and become our active or passive enemies? . . . . "Shall we gain Chiang Kai-shek and lose Britain, France. Italy, I the low countries, Scandinavia, Greece and Turkey?" Fulbright insisted that General Mac Arthur's program raises scores 1 of questions, and cautioned: "bold ness and bravery are one thin"!. Recklessness and headlong dis patch are another."

Baton Twiwlng Marvelous Gloria Ellexson, head drum ma jorette for the University of Wash inaton, who has won many out standing recognitions for her tal ents, was the highlight attraction of the evening. With her lovely tan, and her uniform of blue sequins, she was striking to look at, but her twirling was out of this world. I can't describe the gyrations she went through, sometimes keeping three batons going at once, Nit she was wonderful. During the session, perhaps a naif dozen major parties brighten what would otherwise tend to be come a long and dreary drag. This is the last scheduled larger affair. I might mention that Rep. Geddes in his more relaxed moments has gained quite a reputation for lead ing groups in the singing of "Alou ette." improvising words that have to do with the occasion and the guests. As so often happens, that was called for last evening and the group joined in heartily in the perhaps unmusical, but hearty ren dition of the song. All in all the evening was a credit to the Fourth district and the only lack I noticed was that the Roseburg Paul Bunyans should have been there to display their brawn and talents and perhaps initiate the governor and speaker, and senate president into the mighty order of the woods. Luther League To Hold Box Social On Friday On Friday evening. April 24, the Luther league of Faith Lutheran church will hold a box social in the Roseburg armory. The eve ning is being sponsored to raise funds to help Faith church's "Youth of the Year" attend the fnternational Youth conference in Colorado Springs, Colo, this June. The box supper will begin at t:30 p.m. with a set price of $1.50 for adults and 75 cents for stu dents. Women and girls attending are asked to bring a box supper for two and table service. After the supper, the evening will continue with a musical pro gram, group singing, and a "slave auction," an auction of personal services volunteered by members of the league and the congregation. Youth Legislature Date Is Postponed Until May The Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y spon sored youth legislature, originally scheduled for Friday and Saturday of this week at Salem, has been --inoie-i until Mav 11 and 12. The postponement was necessary since the state legislature is still in session. About nine Roseburg high school students will partici pate in the legislature, which will loiiuw a routine similar to that of the official body. Government Paternity Criticized By Hoover NEW YORK OP) Herbert hoover says that "the day when we decide that the government is our brother's keeper, that is the day when compassion and our as piration for justice will be lost in America." "Today," he says, "the world is in the grip f a death struggle between the philosophy of Christ and that of Hegel and Marx. "The outstanding spiritual dis tinction of our philosophy from the other is compassnn and an aspir ation for justice. It is the noblest expression of man." Mill's Sprinkling System Beats Firemen To Punch The Roseburg fire department was called about noon Wednesday to Young's Bay Lumber company, where a fire started in the saw dust bin.
