Maybe we just im.igine it, but people seem to smile more broadly and more generously during the holidays. And that, itself, is enough to justify the American variety of "com mercialized" Christmas. If the same pleasant tendency could be continued the rest of the year but, then, we sup pose there has to be blue Mondays and grouchy individuals to make us appreciate the change at Christmas time.

Overnight News Briefs Saturday evening at the Sacajawea we may confidently predict a food shortage along about eight o'clock. The Observer carrier gang will be finishing their annual Christ inas dinner around that hour and when we say "finish" we nean nothing else but. This year due to the absence of a certain red-headed youngster of record-breaking cittinjr ability we can't say with assurance just what ,loy will end up the meal with a light dessert of three or four pie a-la-inodes. But we are sure one of them will they've never lulled us yet. And for the sake of those who plan to dine wisely and well at the Sacajawea on this coining Saturday ,we suggest unofficially that they be seated early. From seven o'clock on we fancy the entire kitchen staff will be engaged in filling youthful stomachs. And if you think that doesn't require the effort of a full staff, just try it sometime. Our carriers will furnish the stomachs. ( The succession of the president of the senate to the gov ernor's chair will cause a lot of comment and reflection on .this rather unique provision of the amended state constitu tion. Should we have a rule by which any man can become tho state's chief executive without being chosen directly by i.no vote oi the people lor a high state office? In the present instance, the experience and ability of Governor Norblad may work out lo the imminent satisfaction of the people and the slate, liut the job of being president of the senate might have been held by a dozen other men, some of them competent, most of them not, for the job of governor. A senate president is not, by the very nature of his normal duties, elected as a possible successor to the governor. Ho is elected for political purposes by his fellow senators with much political maneuvering. Yet the hand of death might, according to our constitution, put any such president of the senate, into tho governor's office. And while the proposal to have a lieutenant-governor has been frequently turned down by the people, perhaps the emphasis brought to the subject by the present situation will make for a more I'avor ublo consideration. Some change is needed, if the voters are to continue the most direct method of government in Oregon. Ily AnmicIiiiciI lrc.ss JIOOIJ II IV Kit Mr. and Mis. M. I..

BAD NEWS roil CHINA On several occasions during the bust few years the news from China has been distinctly encouraging to all who hope to see a unified, able, progressive government in that vast country. Hight now, however, the sky is pretty dark darker, in fact, than at any lime in the past decade. China seems lo be in serious danger of falling lo pieces completely, in a political sense. The Nanking goveninivnt is under attack from three sides. Chiang Kai-shek, so far the ablest leader the Nationalists have found, seems slated to lose his authority. No one is in sight who can replace Mm. Instead of tho unification that was hoped for, and that r.eeinod fairly close for a while, China may actually be ready to split up into three, four or more separate stales, with ill-defined boundaries, chaotic political and national relation ships and no power whatever to restore to the Chinese people the privileges which while nations have taken away. This is extremely disturbing news. The Nanking govern ment was the strongest force for unification that had ap peared in China in more than JO years of bloody struggle. Jf it falls the outlook will be dark indeed. Nor arc the white nations without responsibility. Com petent observers have declared that China can never become a unified nation until the "treaty ports" are given up and extraterritoriality is abolished. 11 goes without saying, of course, that these thingu will not be done if China splits up into scini-independent warring factions. Some day China will be a solid nation, n good market for American and European exporters. That da'y, evidently, is farther off than we had supposed.
