Sakm, News Behind By PAUL WASHINGTON, Oct, 14 Smoke does not necessarily mean there is fire in Washington. Man ufacture of synthetic clouds is the leading industry ot the capital. Latest formidable fleecy vapor to gather on the horizon la the authoritative suggestion that Mr. Roosevelt might ask Mr. Garner to join him In seeking a third term. This one came out a chimney oth er than that of the White House or the Washington hotel (where Mr. G. Hres). Some say it came out of an accordion. The weird instrument upon which Mr. Roose velt's banshee Thomas Corcoran relaxes from his daily toil of working the White House base ment bellows. In any event there will be no rain from that one. Mr. Garner would not run for a third term with George Washington. He is eelf-consti-tutionaUy opposed to third terms. A lot of political clouds are going to be dissipated soon, in cluding that thunderhead about the war making Mr. Roosevelt's renomination and re-election a foregone conclusion. Nothing inside confirms that supposition. The situation seems to be that the democratic party is reunited on foreign policy. Cur rent congressional debate natur ally puts accent upon that happy state of affairs. But as soon as the pending ship bill is out of the way, the country will have to ret back to domestic Issues. The Jan nary session will bring such is sues to the foreground. That is where harmony stops. Possibility that this country wil enter the war before the nom inating conventions next June is too remote for anyone to see. If the country is neutral and agreed on foreign policy, the basic rea soning upon which third term conclusions now are being offered, will not exist. Anyway (and this Is still merely recounting the most sen sible sounding arguments yon hear from the political maes tros here) whoever Indicated Mr. Roosevelt wanted a third term, except Ickes? The presi dent's friends and most of the news observers think he does not want one, bnt that he might be persuaded to take it. If pressed. That means be prob ably would not get It as the sit uation obviously requires open ardent work on his part. The nomination will not come to him on a platter. There Is more reverence for Jim Farley around here lately. It is not only the postmasters con vention here, although it gave an Inkling of how many friends he has. A wholly impartial analyst recently surveyed 36 ot the 48 states personally and returned here with the conclusion that more than a majority of the dele gates to the next democratic con vention will be very good friends of Farley not necessarily pledg ed to his nomination, bat boys he knows by their front names. worrvino much ahont thom tn Oregon, Sunday Morning, October 15, 1939 "Nazi Offensive" Today's News MALLON This conclusion is verified by ac countable poutlcal authorities. FDR is beginning to squirm In his chair at the length ot the senate debate (you will recall Foreign Chairman Pittman pre dicted a vote last week.) The pre sident apparently asked Leader Barkley to find out when he would get the good news. Barkley stopped opposition Senator Ben nett Champ Clark in the hall and the following exchange ensued: Barkley: "When are you fel lows going to get through talk ing?" Clark: "Oh it will be some time yet. Barkley: "A lotta people are asking me when the vote is going to come? Clark f "Just teU them it will come when the debate ceases. Mr. Roosevelt's vague remarks about a South American gold deal apparently referred to a promise made to Foreign Minister Aranha of Brazil during the visit last summer. It did not get out then.

And because it is this sort of war, the Allies fight it with profound in hibitions and fight it only be cause all means ot communica tion between the rest ot Europe and Germany have been closed for years by Adolf Hitler. This is the tragedy of this most tragic war that communication among peoples has been suspended by the leaders of Germany. This is the reason for the seemingly fu tilft hnmhtne with namnhlets in a heartbreaking attempt at com munication of Europeans witn one another. In 1933 Germany seceded from Western civilization. In 1939, with l complete consequentiality, Germany opened Europe to Asia This war Is a civil war to force Germany back into Western civ ilization and then reorganize and strengthen that civilization by co operative effort, letting bygones be bygones. Like our own Civil War, it is a war to enforce unity. The peace terms cannot be writ ten, because the peace terms can not be dictated. They must be created, together, as a peace for a new and united Europe. In or der to make that peace one must have Germany back in the body of Western civilization. This war is a fight for the liv ing body of Germany. What is Western civilization? It is not democracy, not parlia mentary government and certain ly not capitalism.

It is the syn thesis of three things: the Chris tian ethic: the sclentuic spirit; and the rule of law. Th essence of the cnristian ethic is that the weak have rights as well as the strong ana mat the strong must set limitations upon their own power. tia essence of the scientific spirit is that the search for truth transcends tne state ana may nor. be limited or suppressea oy tne state. It nresumes the separa tion ot state and culture, i.e., the separation of culture from force. The essence of the rule of law is that contract is superior to arhUmrr force: it nresumes a onnttniittr of relslionshiDS. con stantly being modified but of uni versal application at eacn mo ment, and from whose sovereign ty no one ia eiemot. not the Kin sr. not the President, not the pow erful, not the weaK. These are the standards of Western civilisation, and it is no. answer to say that the Christian ethic is not practiced, that science and literature are corrupted, or that the law is made by the pow erful in their own Interests and evaded when it is not. The per ennial struggle of Western civiliz ation, the continual revolution in Western, civilization, is to achieve a more Christian, more scientific and jifster society. That adultery, flourishes is no argument tor the abolition of marriage. That capitalism has abused, the institution of property is no argument against private property; that. Western civiliza tion is always fluid, never static, and in constant change and re form is an argument in its favor and a sign of the organic life that is in it. This trinity of concepts is unique to the West. Russia, Asia and Africa have never produced a society which is a synthesis of the Christian ethic, free sci ence and the rule ot law. The Mahometan world does not know it. China, Japan and India do not know it They know other things, but not these things. The synthesis is the unique contribution of Europe, and only those areas of the earth settled, colonized, ruled and lived in by Europeans or the children of Eu ropeans the Americas, Austra lia, New Zealand, the Union of South Africa belong to Western civilization. These countries are ruled by one kind of spirit, the Western spirit, and Inhabited by one kind ot man, the Western man. We belong together. We have one God, one university, one science, one ethic, a common literature and a common concept of law. a a It is the world's greatest and most creative civilization, al though it has not the most nu merous population by any means. It has produced almost the whole of modern science and technolo gy; it has made the greatest con quest of nature; it has liberated the human mind as it has never been liberated; it has created the most secure societies in all his tory; It has produced the high est standard of living material and cultural rthat mankind has ever known. It Is the only thing worth fighting for, worth dyin for. Against this unity Germany re belled for a thousand reasons, for which the whole cirillsation bears the guilt. But into that unity Germany must return. For the gifts and power and genius of Germany are essential to that civilization. The West can not live without her. Long before the politicians woke up to the realization on the tragedy ot the German seces sionwhile the politicians were refusing to believe in the seces sion the scholars, scientists, po ets, artists, religious leaders tnd philosophers of law were aware aware and dismayed. The persecution of the Jews was not a crisis of Jewry. It was a crisis of Christianity, a declara tion of war against the Christian ethic. The first to see Its pro found threat to one of the three pillars of Western civilization were German pastors and priests. The universities ot the Wesi took up arms against Nazism be fore the states did by a spon taneous and Immediate realization that another pillar was tottering.
