1938: Year of Worries
What he described as the national disease "Frontpage
, ids" was pointed out by the writer of a recent magazine ar
ticle; a chronic malady of which the principal symptom was
a worried glance at the daily newspaper's scareheads and
whose general effect was a headache. Indeed it may seem, as
we scan the final front page of 1938 and review in memory
those that preceded it, that the newspapers have been doing
their level best to scare everybody to death.
It has been a year of alarms; some of them now proven
false, some sounded in time to prevent disaster, others still
hanging fire with their validity not yet determined. The year
opened with worries over the recession and the fate of the
farmers whose ills did not seem to have been alleviated by an
. agricultural relief bill hastily thrown together. As it pro
ceeded there came worries over the national debt, the reor
ganization bill, the supreme court, the TVA, the congression
al "purge," the third term bugaboo. Election campaigns, wor
ried the nation for months and there were dire predictions as
to the nation's fate unless the elections turned put thus and
so. Oregon was especially plagued with labor problems,

that to, recriminations over an anti-picketing bill, the dis
pute over which seemed'only fairly begun when it was enact
f4& by the voters.
For all this imposing list of domestic worries, no disas
ter has definitely befallen state or nation, .although few of

be a trifle better off than we were in January.
But our domestic worries haveleen mild alongside those
of international character. We had come to worry very little
about what happened in Spain, but what happened in China
was much nearer home and by no means reassuring. Europe
however has been our most serious and most constant source
of jitters. Totalitarianism as a philosophical peril was noth
ing new, but in 1938 it became a definite, international men
ace. There was warning enough in the spectacle of a bloodless
conquest of Austria through nazi intrigue and bluff. Central
Europe simmered more and more actively from the moment
that conquest was effected, but did not come to a boil until
in September when it became evident, or seemed evident, that
, Adolf Hitler was ready at last not only to bluff small nations,
but to fight big ones if he could not have his way. How peril
ously near a world conflagration was, no one will ever know.
Today, scarcely three months after Munich, there are many
who suspect there never was any such danger, that it was all
a nefarious plot.
However that may be, our international worries have
not, in contrast to our domestic worries, diminished in com
parison to a year ago. The front pages of 1938 will fade, but
" we face a new series of front pages in 1939 whose headlines
may be bigger and blacker. Yet the experience of 1938 should
be kept in mind as an antidote for the poison of frontpageitis.
The catastrophes that loom before us may not come to pass.
Most real disasters come without warning.
So Why Struggle and Fret?
The rich are not getting any richer and the poor are not
getting any poorer, concludes Carl Snyder, New York econ
omist, after an exhaustive scientific study of all that can be
v known of past and present distribution of wealth. George
Washington, Stephen Girard "and Thomas Hancock, rich
men of the colonial period, were as wealthy for their genera
tion as John D. Rockefeller or Henry Ford for this one.
Within 30 years there may be one or two triple-billionaires,
Snyder predicts, provided the present economic system
endures that long and he has scientific grounds for behev-intr-it
will "Rnr snrri fortunes as that will not hp out of line
with the general trend of wealth; they. "will constitute no
- greater share of the total than the largest present fortunes.
In fact, says the economist, although prices, production
and national income have fluctuated excessively, there has
been "reamarkabjy. slight" variation in the distribution of
wealth in the United States ; and although other conditions
are much different, this distribution is almost exactly the
same in England, France and Germany. He is looking for a
"law" that explains it, and has progressed to this point ; that
distribution of wealth must be based upon the distribution of
money-making ability, which apparently is fairly v constant
from generation to generation and in all populations. What
Stakes it simpler, he adds, is the fact that inherited wealth is
almost negligible as the basis for riches among any current
generation.
There is widespread effort in the United States today to
level off wealth and incomes ; it is the definite policy of the
present administration to bring this to pass and few persons,
no matter what their economic status, would seriously ob
ject provided it could be accomplished without further wreck
ing the economic system. But if it cannot be done short of
abolishing private enterprise entirely, why struggle and fret?
Economic laws cannot be repealed.
Further Aid for Flax Sought
. Senator McNary announces that he is planning to ask
an additional appropriation of $12,000 for experiments in
flax fiber processing, to supplement the $25,000 appropri
ated by the last congress, and also a six-year benefit payment
plan so that plants may be assured of capacity operation and
growers assured of a market.
In making these requests the senator ought to have some
new arguments to present for the reason that the new recip
rocal trade agreement with the United Kingdom unaccount
ably includes flax as one of the products on which tariff con
cessions are to be made by the United States; this despite the
act that subsidies have been found necessary to encourage
the industry here in recent years.
' - The Statesman has been receptive to the general idea of
trade agreements and has always insisted that prohibitive
tariffs on most products are unwise. But when high protect
. ive tanrrs were instituted m mis country many years ago,
encouragement of "infant industries" was the reason as
signed. Today there are few infant industries, but flax and
linen belong among that abbreviated list. It does seem to be
folly to subsidize the domestic flax industry with one hand,
and lower its tariff protection with the other.
Twenty-one nations in the western hemisphere signed
a new peace pact in Lima, Pern as a climax to the conference
there. If some of them do not regard their signatures to
treaties any better than they have on their bonds the nact
will not have much practical value. The real question in Pan
American relations is whether trade relations can be main
tained satisfactorily and international investments respected.
Mexico, it should be added, was also one of the signers.
If Governor Murphy is appointed attorney general, Sen
ator Vandenberg will be "inclined to vote for his confirm
ation,' the senator is quoted as saying. Perhaps he is "in
clined" to think Murphy could do less damage in that office
than he might if appointed to the supreme court. ,
Those "no left turn" signs on. Salem's downtown cor
ners were really put there as reminders to the legislators of
the November election's mandate to "turn right," declares
the Corvallis Gazette-Times.
. Governor-elect Culbert Olson of California says relief
costs in that state will run close to $100,000,000 for the next
Liennium. At least, the states are not yet talking in billions.

(Concluding from yesterday:)
He (Paulding) was made
lieutenant in 1816, and spent the
next three years on the Mace
donian ot the Pacific squadron,"
says the Dictionary of American
Biography, and adds:
"While on duty, again In the
Pacific, on the United States, he
carried Admiral Hull's dispatches
fiom Callao to General. Bolivar's
headquarters In the Andes, a
Journey of 1500 miles on horse
back. He Tolunteered the fol
lowing year (1825)t for a long
cruise in the South Seas as 1st
ileuL on the Dolphin, pursuing
mutineers. He wrote two books
about that Dolphin cruise. Paul
ding was on the Vincennes,
1844-7, on her Toyages to China;
was, the next four years, in
charge of the Washington nary
yard, before, prior to 1856,
operating in the Caribbean. In
December, 1857, he seized "Gen
eral" William Walker and 350
fellow filibusters at Greytown,
Nicaragua; sent 150 of his men
to take 350 filibusters, done
without bloodshed, ; and sent
them home. Nicaragua - gave
Paulding a Jeweled sword.
S S .
In the Clril war, though above
the regulation age of active
command, Paulding was in
charge of the bureau of detail,
selecting suitable officers for
wartime activities. He, led the
expedition which, April 21, 1861,
eracuated the Norfolk rary yard.
Paulding was on the board
for construction of the new type
ironclads; took much of the re
sponsibility for the fashioning
of the Monitor and the New
Ironsides. John Ericsson, in
whose brain was conceived the
Monitor, said: "Without Paul
ding's support, the Monitor
would not hare been built."
That nation-saving, new style
lighting ship was built at the
New York nary yard, on the
official board of which sat Paul
ding, remaining through 1865.
During the draft riots, he looked
to the saying of Jives and the
protection of property in and
about New York Clt-. On his
death Paulding was senior on
the retired list; he was the last
survivor in the battle of Cham
plain. S S
This writer does not claim
the list is complete with the
names of 182 men on the im
perishable roll of honor. When,
last year, this columnist started
with 39 men who learned in the
Oregon country the lessons that
served them in the Civil war to
save the Union for America and
democracy for the world les
rons absorbed when low ranking
officers fighting and handling
Indians here, in the '403-'50s on
how to lead victorious regiments,
brigades, corps, divisions, armies,
in the '60s, that number seemed
remarkable, distinctive.
But, taking in California, 12
names were added, and then it
became evident, vrith painstak
ing research, that still more
names were entitled to places on
the honor roll. It appeared that
the 3ih might be doubled; then
muiypljed by three, then four.
But the list grew and grew. The
original number is multiplied by
four, with 26 more illustrious
names added '182 in all.
s u
But no c'aim is made that all
who ought to have numbers on
the shining 1 silver screen are
there. Counting Indian fighters
west of the Missouri river of
the original pioneer West, the
number would go far above the
200 mark. Counting, of course,
cnly those who when the CivU
war came aided in winning it
for the Union cause.
When one in the search was
reached who fought here and
then went with the Confederate
army, his name was not eUgible
for this shining scroll. But, far
in the minority, their number
was comparatively small.
S S
For some reason, a consider
able number of West Point men
who as low ranking officers
fought in the Indian wars of
eastern Washington went with
the Confederate armies. Some
of them: Major R. S. Garnett,
who fought Indians in the Pn
get Sound country and then in
the Yakima section. He was
killed in battle ta the Confed
erate army. Lieut. Archibald
Grade was another. He led the
party which in May, 1855. con
ducted the peace commissioners
from The Dalles to the famous
council croups at the site of
Walla Walla where Governor
Stevens and the others escaped
massacre through the Interven
tion of Chief Lawyer; that is, the
first Chief Lawyer where one
of the greatest American Indian
demonstrations , of savage gran
deur ever witnessed was ep acted.
Then there was Major George
Rains; and John ' B. Magruder,
who fought on the Confederate
side at Big Bethel, tint battle
of the Civil waK And Capt.
John Henry Winder, Who was in
charge of the notorious Confed
erate prisons. And no doubt
several more.
Even Win, Wing Loring, hrevet
colonel, U. S. Army, who left
Fort Leavenworth for Oregon
May 10, 13 45, w 1 1 h the re
nowned rifle regiment; 600 en
listed men, 31 officers, some
women and children. . 160 wag
ens, teamsters, - guides, train
agents, 2000 mules tad horses,
end subsistence, to make the
Oregon Trail again safe, which
it bad not been since the gen
eral Indian wars beginning in
1855 even Loring vent with
the Confederacy. - So did - John
8. Hood, who became one of the
greatest Confederate generals.
Aug. 5, 1855, 2d Lieut. P. H.
Sheridan relieved Lieut. John B.

tells in his Memoirs, page 121,
volume 1, of being ordered East
in 1861, from Fort Yamhill,
where, thouga only a 2nd lieu
tenant, be had charge he hav
ing been ordered to turn over
the post to Captain James J.
Arcber. Sheridan wrote: "But
I had been notified that he
(Archer) intended to go South,
end his conduct was uch after
reaching the post that I would
not tarn over the command to
him for fear that he i tight com
mit some rebellious act. . . .
News came that he had tendered
his resignation. ... On July 17
(1861) he took his departure,
but I continued in command till
September 1, when Capt. Philip
A. Owen came and gave me my
release."
Most readers know what hap
pened to Sheridan, one of the
three generals who at Appomat
tox received Lee's sword the
other two Ord and Grant, both
of them also having fought and
handled Indians in the Oregon
country. Well what of Archer?
Briefly, here is his record:
Born in Maryland. Was a law
yer; went to the Mexican war;
brevetted major for gallantry in
battle. He got a vote of thanks
and a sword from the Maryland
legislature. In '61 he organized
"Archer's Brigade," in the Army
of North Virginia; was In the
battles of Seven Days, Cedar
Mountain, 2nd Manassas, Antie
tam, Fredericksburg, Chancel
lorsville, Gettysburg was with
Stonewall Jackson in the flank
ing movement at Chancellors
ville. ... He was In the part of
the rebel army that began the
three day battle of Gettysburg,
here Reynolds and Doubleday
on the Union side were in com
mand. (He must have known
Reynolds in Oregon, when he
brought old Chief John from
Port Orford overland to Fort
Yamhill In 1856.) Then, says
the record: Archer was "captur
ed by a flank movement with
many prisoners; was a prisoner
tor over a year; was then sent
southward and exchanged, but
died soon after his release." (He
died Oct. 4, 1864.)
