' Japan and China Again AS the Italo-Ethiopian crisis resolves itself into the slow penetration of Ethiopia by the conquering Italian armies - and the. shadow-boxing of the sanction-invoking league members, Japan and China emerge from a season of repose into one of renewed friction. Japan has sent ships and landed troops at Shanghai because of "incidents". The first was the shooting of a Japanese marine. The second was the stoning of a Japanese girl. Both incidents are charged to political purposes Jby the Japanese. Japan claims that in China there are political organizations seeking to offset Japanese influ ence by terrorist methods. One of these is said to be the "blue shirts", a fascist anti-Japan body. In Eastern Asia there is a three-fold rivalry. China seeks to maintain her integrity under the national government at Nanking. But encroaching on that independence are Japan and, the communist bands from the soviet border. The latter are composed of the bandit groups and directed often by the students educated in Russia or elsewhere, who are full of rev olutionary ideas. The Nanking government in its zeal to sup ! press communist revolution, is charged with leaning toward 1 Japan for aid in the crisis. Recently a Chinese minister was , shot because of alleged pro-Japanese inclination. M. G. Griebenow, who is 13 years missionary work in Japan's thrusts aimed more at he savs. seeks to hold Russian srolian frontier to prevent its into Japan. He sees in the family, the old Chinese social unit, the hope for defeat of Russian communism. The world is witnessing the vulcanism of civilization in the far east. Japan has already remodeled its economy on western line "and China is revamping its ancient culture. Thrusting itself into this confused situation is the infection -I of communism out of Russia. So the industrial west and com munist Russia find a new battleground for their conceptions in the cracking cultures of the orient. The stage is set, and world drama on a vast scale is being enacted before our eyes. Future of COME friends of Willamette O , would take over its campus cate in Bush pasture in a be disappointed over the failure For our own part we indulge in few regrets. The loss of the historic campus, strategically located, would have been serious. It was saidf in the senate debate that the state would always have the bjeautiful campus for a background. The geography works poth ways. If the capitol has Willamette for a background, then the university will have the magnifi cent new capitol and the beautiful Willson park for a fore ground, and wherje js the university with a better outlook? It is something to set up new and modern buildings in a new and spacious setting. But the heart of Willamette lies in the molding of youth along conservative lines, linking the present with the past; and blending with the fruit of ad- ! vanced study the traditions of the missionary fathers who founded the institution. Unless that spirit could be carried : into the new quarters the successful mission of the school would have been seriously impaired. The present location has this advantage also : proximity to the capitol, to the libraries, to the law library for law stu dents ; and to the business district where many students find employment. The thousands who visit the capitol see the Willamette campus; and its location thus gives it wide ad vertising. The university does need some new buildings, particu larly a library. The friendly interest of Salem people who worked to consummate the trade with Willamette is surely appreciated by the university organization. The need of course remains; and those of means who are generously dis posed can find no better place for their money than in help ing equip the university with buildings on its present cam pus. The university's progress will continue ; and perhaps in the long range view, on healthier lines, than if it had "sold out" and gone off to the new location. Eastern Oregon Legislators Anew senator who moved swiftly into recognition was J. G. Barratt from Umatilla, Union and Morrow coun ties, residing in Heppner. He is comparatively a young man, by occupation a sheep-grower. He kept his seat during the early part of the session ; but before the 20-day period was over he stood up and showed he was a vigorous and ef fective debater. His final speech was on the closing night, a strong plea for a state AAA, and he put into it a punch that forced attention. Immediately afterwards he was put on the final conference committee on the state capitol, marked rec ognition for a new senator. In the special session Robert M". Duncan of Burns devel oped as one of the real leaders. He carried a heavier load of work than any other member, serving on the important cap itol committee and, after the death of Goss, as chairman of the judiciary committee, which handled social security legis lation. His rugged honesty, his capacity for lucid statement, his conservative temper made him a key man in the session. Duncan is closing his first term as senator ; and is not decided whether to seek reelection or not. Among his col leagues there was considerable demand that he return and seek the post of president of the senate. Another senator of distinguished ability is N. G. Wallace of Bend. Eastern Oregon, by the way, furnished the legislature with many of its ablest members. They seem to be broader minded from the country of wide open spaces. Western Ore gon counties, some of them, had the poorest and weakest rep resentation in the house and senate. Some of them were piti fully impotent, especially in the house. The county budget committee fixed the allowance for privately owned cars in county service at four and one-half cents per mile. It Is true that all a county employe is entitled to is actual expense when traveling on county business. But the county employe, is not required by law to furnish; the means of transportation. The county either must provide the cars or else pay the officials a proper amount for furnishing the cars. Four and a half cents a mile may be enough un der present road conditions. But even at six cents a mile we incline to agree with Commissioner AJelson that the county gets oft cheaper than where it buys the cars, unless It maintained a fleet of them with regular garage service. It would be poor economy in" times like the present to curtail the support for the county health department. If epidemics spread as they are apt to unless strict control is maintained; the number of In digent sick who would fall back on the county for care might easily cost the county far more than It would save by reducing the health department budget. The battle for the health service was won years ago; and Commissioner Hewlett is behind times if he thinks the county could or would get along without, it. ' At a height of IS miles la the air the pilot of the plane exploring the stratosphere could note the curvature of the earth. Thus is proven from visual observation the theory of Columbus that the earth Is round, a theory which was proven Jong ago by other means, notably the voyage of Magellan around the world.

The Great Game of Politics f By FRANK R. KENT Copyright I9i3. by The Baltimore Sua Politics Is Out? Yes? WASHINGTON. Nor. It QN April 28. Just after he had re ceived from Congress a blank Check tor five billions of dollars, Mr. Ro osevelt a s 8 a r e d the people that in the WPA ex penditures "politics, so far as we are con cerned, is out." There would be no sectional or p o 1 i t ical dis tinctions at all. "Feel free " he grac i o u s I jrs a 1 d , "to c r i t icize. Tell me of In s t a nces where Frank B. Kent work can be done belter or im- proper practices prevail." KO one acuses Mr. Roosevelt per sonally of conniving in the politi cal use of money designed "to re lieve human misery." It is possible to lay upon him personal respon sibility for the contusion and in efficiency of the WPA as a whole, but it would be a dreadful thing lo say he acquiesced in the use of WPA power to promote his politi cal fortunes. And the charge is not made. Nevertheless, since the decent elections, allegations that both the power and the dough were so used have been numerous, specific, and accompanied by so much evidence that they are diffi cult to ignore or refute. If what happened In this relatively unim portant and limited campaign is a foretaste. It Is not pleasant to think of the character of the Pres idential campaign next year. WHAT makes these accusations jSignificant is that they do not Come from Republicans who have made the charge in the past, but from independent observers and indignant citizens. The fact is the report comes from widely seper ated sections that Administration agencies played in with the local politicians to capitalize not only the WPA and PWA money by Ju dicious and timely allotment of funds, but that political pressure actually is put upon both men on relief and those on WPA jobs. For example, Mr. Paul Mallon, writing of the election in Pough keepsie, N. Y.. says: "Just a few freeks ago Messrs. Ickes and Hopkins found the Poughkeepsie spigot In Washington and turned it on. The result is about $454, "00 of Federal funds has lately coroe Into this city, which cast 16.703 rotes In the last election. Roughly, this is about J 27 per vote." ilR. Theodore Wallen in the New York Herald Tribune asserts that 42,000.000. or about $40 for every voter, of PWA and WPA funds, was allotted to Kentucky. where Mr. Roosevelt had made himself the issue ten days before election. And the Baltimore Sun states that Kentucky voters on re lief rolls were circulated by an unsigned letter mailed from Washington, which said. "Pres Ident Roosevelt, a friend of the poor, provided relief so that those in need would not suffer. Won't you help President Roosevelt and yourself by voting ror unana;er on the Democratic ticket?" That is a touching appeal, well calculated o drive a taxpayer wild: FROM Erie. Pa., however, comes a documentary story of the effort lo get money for party purposes from WTPA workers, which is more Shocking. The Erie Dispatch Her aid on October 31 printed an ad yertisement by a group of citi iens, reproducing the following letter on' Democratic campaign headquarters' stationery. i "Dear Friend We understand you are at present employed un der WPA. This employment, we Sbelieve. was only made possible jthroush the Democratic party. We ire, therefore, asking you to assist tis with a financial contribution. Please call on Ken. Thompson, treasurer of the finance committee Commerce Building, no later than Wednesday of this week. Your icooperation In the matter will be greatly appreciated. '! Verv truly yours, I "DEMOCRATIC FINANCE COMMITTEE" I The advertisement goes on to say: "Above is a genuine repro duction of the bludgeoning letter that tells Its own story. It is one Of many sent to Erie county citi zens taken on reiier rons ana teiven jobs on projects of the WPA. In Pittsburgh, the Post-Gazette declares that the day before the Selection "1,300 colored voters (were put to 'work' on WPA jobs despite the fact there was no work to do. And on election day. a legal 4roltday. they were riven another full day's pay as WPA workers, despite the fact their only actl.ity was to go out and vote." OTHER evidence comes from Oth er sections. No matter how earn estly the President. Mf. Ickes and M r. H opkins . condemn these things, the fact remains that they are being done; that they are un able to control the politicians and candidates whom they support; that there are men in the . dmlni tration itself not above doing tiblethem. The temptation Is Irre- examnle, when Mr. Hopkins turn- led WPA In Missouri over to the unscrupulous and unsavory pend- iergast machine, who could doubt that the last possible ounce of po litical advantage cou'd be squeez ed out of It? Certalnlv no one who ever heard of the penJergast machine.

It is the aim of the sur geon to remove all physical handi caps, as well as to improve the p i pearance of the sufferer. j It Is wise to consult with your fam Uly doctor about the need of plastic surgery. He will tell you whether Ian operation Is necessary and will direct you to on who specializes in I this work. Bear in mind that the use of plas I tile surgery If it Is to be successful, requires great skill and careful train Mng. Do not confuse the plastic sur geon with tne "beauty specialist , or any practitioner of that sort. This expert is a trained surgeon who spe cializes in work of physical recon struction.

"CONCEIVED BY DEVIL' i Aumsviile, Ore, Nov. 7, 1935 j To the Editor: I noticed that Mr. E. J. Rfid defends the passion play. First, I do not know any of the persons that took part in it. but I am safe to say that they were not Christians, for If they were they would have more hon or of their Lord, Jesus Christ, than try to do the same that Christ did. For who is a fit person to take our Lord's place and Mary's place and go to the cross? Therefore, it falsifies the whole thing and gives the peo ple the wrong impression of Christ's seven last days on earth. Second place, Christ did not die of or in a passion, but died for your and nty sins. There fore, the whole jplay was a bias phemous thing. ' ! We did not hear anything from the pulpit which ought to con demn such a play that is taken from the sacred pages of the Bi Die. ret, we noticed that some ministers are in favor or indorse it. Such people need an old time repentance. All I can. say is that the whole thing was conceived by the dfv il'and Christ's life made fun of For the c;il uses lots of preach ers and lay members to further his cause. ; i In conclusion, ' will say, read the gospel of John and get to know Christ as he really is.

When Julie sauntered in, she refused to be de terred by the flustered secretary and walked into Kent's private of fice, lie was deeply involved with accumulated correspondence, and glanced cp irritably as the door opened. Seeing the anxious face of his secretary behind Julie, be shouted: -"Miss Hughes, wire my brother in New York to come down orr his high horse and get out here as quick as he can. There's work here for the loafer I" "Yes, sir." The girl retired OUickly. Kent paid no attention to Julie, who sat down on the edge of his desk and inspected her lips in her vanity mirror. "I guess yon didn't find any hap py home waiting for you out in Beverly last night, she obser-ved sweetly. "She wrote me she'd sold it and gone East," he said shortly. "I went to the hotel where my clothes were sent." "Oh! So she $aid she was going East?" "Yes. Why not?" Kent looked un at her keenly from his letters. "Oh, nothing ... only I saw her this morning. Julie snapped the vanity case shut and walked away airily toward the door. Kent followed her. "Wait a mini ute. Where did you see her?" j "Up at Stuart's. She's gone back to living with her first husband 1 I hadn't heard she'd divorced you vet. had voui" She went out, laughing. Kent's face darkened with aneer. i "She can't do that to me!" he His secretarr stooped hint in the outer office.

He was gone in a rash, with the implacable air of a man who will brook no opposition to nls wisnes. i And it was in such a mood that he faced Sharlene across Stuart Pennington's threshold. She backed away from the door silently as Kent strode into the studio. i "Pennington here?" he; asked after a swift glance around; j "No." I "What are yon doing here, Shar lene, in his house?" "What right have you to ask? Her voice was very low, very con trolled. I "I believe I'm still your hus band." - , ! She shook her head. "Yon ceased to be that one rainy night last No vember.

Ha laid his hat down on the table carefully, and when he turned his manner had changed from its first belligerency to one almost of apol ogy, j "Look here, Sharlene. Of course I didn't know your mother was dead that night. I wrote you aU about that." j She was silent, remaining stand ing so that he could neither sit down nor feel at ease. He .had to floun der on presently. j "Of coarse that made me seem la brute. Naturally, if I'd known about your mother I wouldn't have acted just as I did." f "Her death had nothing to do with it!" Sharlene said quietly. She was watching him intently; never taking her eyes from him. It had been that way since he had first confronted her at Stuart's front door. It embarrassed him but the embarrassment was apparently with intricate, designs. Contracts have been awarded for the construction of a two-story Baity Kissing Time! ; .. V V. ..

"Infatuations dont last do they 7 "NO That's why I said what I did. Couldn't yon be big enough to forrive?" His voice broke on that word. It was hard for Kent to be humble. harder still to lose control this way. He took a turn or two np and down the room. Then he rushed over to her and put his hands on her shoulders. "Yoa lore me. Sharlene! You know yoa dot More than anything in the world I I could always count on tnac forget what I said. I was a fool I didn't mean it!" She ' was lookintr deeply into his eyes.

Then he turned and spoke to me cnauneur. "Whose car is this?" "Mr. Kent DamereU's. sir." Stuart had been . sure of it all along.

For a long time she gazed at the picture, and then Stuart became aware of her soft sobbing, ne went slowly toward her, and when she felt him there she turned blindly and buried her face in his coat, holding him close with straining arms. j .
