We got a letter from one ot
our correspondents , who , keeps
goldfish the other day and she
reported that Dr.
Conrad A. Loeh
ner. seeing ber
, goldfish swim
ming around in
their bowl, said,
e r y seriously,
"The climate ot
Oregon . is too
damp for gold
fish." ,
Yesterday was
a day to make
any goldfish, on- PmI H. Bum, Jr.
happy, so, risking the frowns ot
the chamber ot commerce, we
called up Dr. Loehner to find ont
about this. Dr. Loehner ad
mltted authorship of the state
ment and said that the goldfish
get tick from watermold, but re
ferred us to Mrs. Loehner, who, he
saM, Is the botanist' of the fam
ily. .v
Well, Uils Is a bad place for
goldfish and It Is due to water
mold, we learned from Mr.
Loehner. However, watermold
(the chamber of commerce may
breathe easier from here on in)
Is by no means exclusive in
Oregon. It's everywhere, bat
especially la mild climates like
oars (plag).
The watermold, Mrs. Loehner
told as, is a fungus. (It's a mem
ber of the Saprolegniales order
and as far as 'we know its lodge
dues sre paid op in full.) It
grows on the gills of the goldfish,
covers the surface, clogs np their
capillaries and makes it very dif
ficult for them to get any oxygen
out of the water. The feeling is
undoubtedly like that a heavy
smoker gets the morning after an
all night poker party. The gold
fish, confined as they are. are an.
able to take the next train to Art
gona and eventually go where the
food goldfish go, providing, of
course, they have been good gold
fish. We might note that it la
pretty hard to be bad In a glass
kouse.
Mrs. Loehner told us that in
New York City once she saw
goldfish ao bad off that th
watermcld was sticking right
out of their gills so yon could
see It. Furthermore, she said,
they were selling the goldfish
to people who didnt know that
' the days of their purchases
were numbered. , la Alaska,
rMs. Loehner has heard, fish
ermen hare a lot of trouble
with watermold because ft clogs
np their nets and erentnally
makes them so heavy they can
not be manipulated.
Damp climates are very condu
cive to the growth and propaga
tion ot watermold and other
fungi, we learned in our pursuit
of botanical knowledge. Mrs.
Loehner told ns that It Is very
easy to get watermold In your
goldfish bowl and that a goldfish
fancier (all goldfish fanciers
please raise their right hands)
must be rery careful what plants
be puts In his bowl. Once contam
inated with watermod, the bowl,
or aquarium if yon're going to be
ambitious about this thing, is
rery difficult to purify.
It fa possible, Mrs Loehner
said, to treat goldfish who have
picked np a case of watermold,
bat it Is qalte difficult. Mrs.
Loehner kept a couple alive for
two months, bat says she ap
parently didn't try hard
enough. Anyway, they died.
If you're not a goldfish fan
cier there's no need for yon to
worry about this. As far as we
know watermold still prefers
goldfish to humans.

By STEPHEN C. MERGLER
Would-be successful political
guess-makers lost one of their
bets yesterday afternoon when
Secretary of State Earl Snell made
known his answer to inquiries as
to whether or not he might run
for congressional representative
from the second Oregon district
next year.
His answer? A mildly quail
fled "no."
"I was Just reelected a short
while ago to serve the state for
four years.' Secretary Snell ex
plained. "Unless some emergency
should develop. I feel that I
should fulfill that obligation to
the people. Therefore, I am not
giving consideration at this time
to becoming a candidate for con
gress from the second district."
This announcement came in
spits ot actual, strong urgings by
many of En ell's friends and fellow
republicans to take op his heavy
vote-r siting cudgel against Wal
ter M. Pierce, democrat and la-
cumbeat. For these "expressions of

LONDON, Dec. -(tfV-Great
Britain's fast-expanding alrforce
was disclosed tonight to have
flown boldly to the attack in mass
offensives i against Germany's
boasted air superiority, launching
a big scale war In the air.
With the cold and cold-blown
North sea as the battleground, the
British pressed repeated waves of
fast long-range planes, capable of
both bombing and fighting,
against the air and sea escort of
a crippled German cruiser, and
against nazl seaplane bases 'at
Borkum, Sylt and Norderney.
These continuing offensive pa

persistent nasi air raids and mine-

ciative, he said, but still does not
feel he should yield.
As to the qualification left In
Lis answer, Snell had nothing
more to aay. ''c
An "emergency" conceivably
could be an unscheduled resigna
tion not at all to be anticipated
on Representative Pierce's part
or other reason for a sadden va
cancy in the house position. ICoro
tempting would be a senate resig
nation, " rumors of which hare
been growing but confirmation of
which has been lacking.
The question may also rest la
Snell's mind, "Why drop a strong
position as secretary of state
whose department : ot state for
ernment Is a large one for a pos
sibility of winning a congressional
seat, a battle that would have to
be ref ought every two years"
The public has taken to Snell
as administrator of the state de
partment. And Oregon democrats
should whether they are or not
be appreciative of his coopera
tion with the late democratic gu
bernatorial administration.

Grand Jury Asks
Law on Shortage
Question of Violation of
Statute Presented to
Judge McMahan
The Marion county grand Jury
yesterday appealed to the circuit
court for assistance in the investi
gation of alleged shortages on the
books of City Recorder A. War
ren Jones when it filed a present
ment with the court which asked
whether, "under the statutes ot
facta following, the acts of A
(figurative designation for the
city recorder) constitute a vio
lation of the criminal statutes . . .
and If so, of what particular stat
ute or statutes?"
The remainder of the present
ment, which filled slightly more
than a typewritten page, was de
voted to a summary ot the re
corder's fiscal affairs from Oc
tober 27, when an auditor dis
closed a deficit of funds in the
sum ot $4081.30. '
"The deficit, as disclosed In
said audit," the presentment
states, "is based on the fact that
said funds were" not found in the
place which we find that the city
ot Salem provided for the keep
ing ot same, and which we find
is the place where said funds
were usually kept by 'A (the
city recorder)."
Finding no turnover whatso
ever of funds to the city treasur
er by the recorder in the months
of June, August and September,
1939, the jury declared that it
did discover a turnover on Satur
day morning, November . 4, . of
$1082.60, and another later the

Red Destroyer
Is Downed By
Finn Battery
Declaration to 'Fight
to End' Made in
Radio Speech
Tanner Says V a y to
- Peace Still Open to
Russians
HELSINKI, Dec lB.-iThe
Finnish high command tonight
announced that a Russian destroy
er had been sunk by coastal bat
teries, twenty soviet tanks cap
tured and others destroyed and
that Russian troops had been de
feated in 14 hours of fighting.
While Finnish forces were re
porting these setbacks to the Rus7
sian invaders, Foreign Minister
Vaino Tanner was putting the is
sue of continued war or peace ne
gotiations squarely up to the So
viet Union government in a sud
den radio speech addressed to
Premier Foreign Commissar Vy
acheslaff Molotoff.
He declared that the Finns are
still willing to negotiate a peace
but, "if Moscow's aim is conquest
of the whole country, then the
Finns will fight to the end."
A high command communique
said coast defense batteries, dur
ing a battle in the outer Turko
archipelagos damaged a Russian
destroyer of the Gordl type so
badly that it sank later in full
view of a Fnlnlsh military look
out.

(Jane's Fighting Ships lists the
Gordi type destroyers as 2800-ton

The Finnish air force, the com
munique continued, made several
reconnoltering flights and at
tacked enemy columns and de
tachments, setting tire to part of
a Russian automobile column
transporting fuel to the front. -
Rosslaxr planes were said to
have attacked the southwestern
Finnish islands and the Petsamo
region, the far northeast corner of
Finland.
Suomussalml, about 12 miles
from the frontier and 225 miles
north of Lake Ladoga, has been a
scene of fierce fighting for sev
eral days. Now, the Finnish com
munique said, the Finns have cut
the roads leading to the frontier
and driven the Russians back near
Kiantajarvi.
Russians Attack In Many
Places on Isthmus
Part of the defeated Russians
were reported isolated and sur
rounded in this lake region a few
miles north of Suomussalml.
Russian attacks took place at
many places on the Karelian isth
mus, supported by tanks and pro
longed artillery barrages, the com
munique continued.
"At Punnuojokl they launched
repeated assaults but were re
pulsed everywhere - and many of
their tanks were destroyed," the
report said.
North of Lake Ladoga the Rus
sians attacked under cover of ar
tillery fire between Llmola and
the lake but were driven back,, the
communique said, adding that
we captured five tanks, as well
as other material." "
In addition, the Finns said the
captured 15 more tanks In the

Previously, Great Britain had
made two urgent demands upon
the South American country to
force the Graf Spee to sail or to
Intern her.
The action of the naval board
was announced shortly before
midnight, several hours after
Great Britain had made a second
diplomatic demand that the G rat
Spee either be Interned for tew
rest of the war or forced to ven
ture Into the high teas, where al
lied warships are watchfully wait
Ins for her.
Previously the Uruguayan for
eign office had announced Ger
many would be permitted to make
the Graf Spee "seaworthy," fol
lowing her damage In Wednes
day's great sea battle with three
British cruisers. .
"Seaworthy Doesn't Mean
"Combat Worthy"
Subsequently, however, the
Uruguayan foreign minister, Al
berto Guani, asked the naval
board to look over the Graf Spee
and define how long she might be
permitted to remain in this neu
tral port to be made "seaworthy,"
without simultaneously being?
made "combat worthy."
This definition was made neces
sary by the blunt British demand
that the Graf Spee either be in
terned or ejected, to fight it out
with the British cruisers which
forced her into refuge here Wed
nesday night. These now are re
inforced. .
Earlier tonight, Guani bad an
nounced he was consulting wl la
the foreign ministers of other
American republics on a joint
declaration to w a r n belligerent
warships to do their fighting out
side the SO 0-mile Pan-American
"safety belt."
The British demand came ae
a formal note transmitted by the
British minister to Uruguay, Eu
gene Miliington Drake, to the
Uruguayan foreign office.
British Pretest Time
Given by Uruguay
A spokesman at the British le
gation disclosed at. the same time
that . yesterday the British gov
ernment had handed a first de
mand to Alberto Guani, Uruguay
an foreign minister.
The Graf Spee has been given
time to make herself seaworthy;
by the Uruguayan government. '
Informed persona said the sec
ond British! note included a pro
test that the Graf Spee had beea
permitted to remain In Monte
video harbor for more than 24
hours without Interment, and that
she was permitted to take aboard;
supplies " and equipment wltt
which to repair her damage.
