Jitters in Geneva j
If one has ever seen a civilian most likely inebriated
but possibly just a well-intentioned though presumptuous
titizen impelled by an emergency get out into a street inter
lection and try to direct traffic, recollection of that scene
affords some idea of what the League of Nations council was
up against when it undertook to slaD the wrist of Joe Stalin.
What makes the citizen look so ridiculous is air attempt to
exert authority which he doesn't have. I
The parallel is not exact. The officious citizen's trouble
is that he can't hand anybody a ticket. The league is in posi
tion to hand out certain types of tickets but it has no police
to drag Joe into court if he tears his up.
Nevertheless it isn't altogether fair to brand the league's
expulsion of Soviet Russia as utterly meaningless, just as it
Isn't fair to brand the league itself as totally worthless, fa
shionable though that may be in this country. The leamie per
formed a number of useful services in disputes that involved
relativelv small nations . Getting back to our analogy, the
traffic-directing citizen may
bruiser with a mean look until one just as big comes along.
When Japan, then Italy, Germany and finally Russia picked
.on their helDless neighbors, the league's bluff was called: in
fact It had begun to look so foolish that about a year ago, Po
land Ignored its potentialities when it seemed convenient to
hake a mailed fist at Lithuania.
' But speaking of neighbors, your self-appointed traffic
director is-bound to be embarrassed if his next-door neighbor
comes along and chooses to Ignore his arm-waving; and thus
it was that the delegates of most small European and Asiatic
neighbors of Russia absented themselves or kept mum when
the vote was taken, while England and France stuttered a bit
In voting "aye." Frail but far away Bolivia boomed out its
vote in lusty and decisive fashion. Yet it should be realized
that one "no" vote would have defeated the resolution; ab
sence of such a vote revealed that Russia had no friends left
in the league, and the silence of the non-voters was as effect
ive as an affirmative, even though more polite and cautious.
The diffidence with which the nations delegates ap
proached the issue was, furthermore, evidence that the ac
tion was by no means an empty gesture. It must be realized
that the notation approved by the league assembly and passed
on to the council contained the following language :
"The assembly. . . condemns solemnly the action of the
USSR against the Finnish state: addresses a pressing appeal to
each member of the league to furnish to Finland material and
humanitarian assistance which each nation is able to bring to
Finland and that each nation abstain from any action of any na
ture which may weaken the power of Finland's resistance; it au
thorises the secretary-general to lend help and technical services
for the organisation of the assistance to Finland outlined above;
It also authorizes the secretary-general. . . to consult non-member
states with a Tiew to eventual cooperation."
Careful reading of this section reveals that the league
invites its members to help Finland in material ways, in
structs its own organization to help coordinate that assist
ance, and by implication, places an embargo upon shipments
of munitions and supplies to Russia. Thus in a sense it is a
stronger step than was taken against Italy in the Ethiopian
matter. ,
Thus the league has gone its limit in opposing Russian
aggression against Finland. But the fulfillment of any of the
steps outlined, is left entirely to the member nations, which
inevitably must consult their. own self-interest; before com
mitting any overt acts. As it is constituted, this is an unavoid
able weakness in the league's constitution and not necessar
ily an unfortunate weakness. Who can say that if the league
had more power, it would exercise it justly? Moral suasion
being its only weapon, there is less invitation to its misuse.
But it is too early to say that the universal sentiment against
Russia, given expression by the league's ouster resolution.
will not be expressed in more
of the member nations and others.
The Battle at Sea
There is a peculiar irony in the fact that a few hours
after the harbormaster of the port of Bremershaven announ
ced to the captain of the returned "Bremen that "this is
cure proof that the British command of the seas is smashed'
the world knew that one of the much-vaunted German pocket
battleships had been forced to flee before a swarm of smaller
and lighter, but swifter, British cruisers. Not much is to be
said for the "he who laughs last" philosophy as a permanent
way of life; but there are times like this, when it gives un
common satisfaction. '
Yet having said that, it is difficult to decide which con
clusion's from the Von Spee's battle can best be drawn. On
the one hand it is clear that in many ways the hour of reck
oning was inevitable for the German commerce raider, and
that from the very day she turned her bow from the protect
ing guns of Helgoland she was the future prey of the British
fleet. This being true, the actual chase and kill are of rela
tively slight importance except as they show, as some author
ities in the present instance seem to think, that the previous
estimate applied to the German pocket battleships must be
revised. 1
On the other hand the spirit of the battle itself must re
main a marvelous thing, even thorjgh the practical results
aeem slight and the outcome in terms of human destruction
and death a "heavy burden. The willingness of the English
vessels to close battle, even though they knew the superiority
of their enemy's guns; the determination of the German to
beat off the terriers swooping to gnash through its vital sin
ews: these remain manifestations pf human resolution which
are in themselves majestic even though the cause in which
they were exercised may be most deplorable.
This conflict is another dependent clause -to be woven
Into accounts of the war of 1939 in future history texts; the
hotly fought battle off the River Platte is no Salamis or Traf
alger. Yet in its curious blend of the important and the unim
portant; of the significant and the merely interesting, this
diminutive Jutland has many of the qualities which have
made naval annals compelling even though the events de
scribed are merely "in the line of duty." So it has been since
swift Cartheginian triremes roke the Athenian blockade at
Syracuse, and so it is still with steel ships and -revolving tur
rets. The sea changes little; and sometimes not at alL

Rer. Horner rare to J. ,
B. Horner; sister of Rer.
Horner Sarah E. Clark, Salem:
W :
Regular readers of this column
noted in the aeries that ran In
the four issues ending with yes
terday's number of The States
man a very skimpy sketch, of the
life of the late Prof. John B.
Horner. Oregon historian, teach
er, author, leader, genius of hard
work.
Some readers may hare noted.
In the article beginning the series
that opened with the issue of No
vember 2, on the John N. Clarks,
that Mrs. Clark was born Sarah
Elizabeth. Horner, without sens
ing any .connection between' the
Clarks and Homers. Indeed, that
was the case with this writer.
U
Well, the step-father of Prof.
John D. Horner was a brother of
Mrs. John M. Clark,, who, with
her husband, resides with their
daughter, Mrs. Ben P. Taylor at
1984 State street.
Ellas Ruark Horner destined
to become the- step-father of Prof,
John B. Horner of Oregon, was
born about 1834 in Perry, now
Franklin county, Ohio.
In the Horner family were 10
children, of whom Sarah Eliza
beth, who was fated to become
Mrs.. Clark, was the youngest. Her
brother Ellas R. was 18 years her
elder, and there was a brother.
John, two years older than Ellas.
John and Elias had planned to
gether that they must In some
way secure money and get an
education, in order that they
might make their marks in the
world, and In the family of 10
children, with their parents not
In affluent circumstances, they
must do some hustling together
to accomplish their ambitions.
It was in 1852. They had been
hearing of the California gold
rush, and some people from their
neighborhood had gone and oth
ers were preparing to go to that
far away golden rainbow's end.
They argued between them'
selves that John, being small of
frame and not hardy in health.
besides having a rather shrink
ing disposition, would better not
be the one to go. So, they agreed,
Elias should go, and, having
filled his purse with gold, would
return, and with that start they
might both get an education
and training to fit them for use
ful places in the world, where
they could help the other mem
bers of the family.
So Elias went with the gold
rush crowd of 1852, the year
when about 50,000 made the
western ends of the Old Oregon
Trail, and over 6000 died and
were buried In unmarked graves
along the weary way.
I,
Elias made most of the journey
on foot. Letters were a year get
ting an answer, and the first
one that reached Elias told the
news of the death of John, who
had gone to school and so applied
himself that he became sick;
took brain fever and died; had
been bedfast only a week.
That was a great grief to
Elias. He drifted, as the careful
reader knows, to Walla Walla,
Washington, going' with the party
of which the Swadlenacks were
members meaning the father
and mother and little sister of
five year old John B. Swadle-
nack, and John B. himself. The
father and the little sister died
at Walla Walla soon, and were
burled there through the kind
ness of the U.S. soldiers, for
then, in the late 1850s and early
18 SOs, there was little at Walla
walla excepting the fort.
Elias R. Horner became a
preacher, a circuit rider, at Walla
Walla. Soon he married the wid
owed mother of John Baptlste
Swadlenack, and the boy was
thereafter known as "the Horner
boy, and in after 'years even
his Intimates did not realize that
he started in this world under
another name.
Rev. Horner travelel with his
saddlebags on horseback all over
the settled portions of eastern
Oregon in the pioneer days of
that section; an able, hard work
ing and efficient circuit rider.
Is
Afterward he had pastorates
at several western Oregon towns.
He erected the parsonage at Falls
City; hauled the logs himself with
which it was built. He was long
the pastor at Beaverton, going
there when It was mostly in the
forest. Two daughters and a son
came into the Horner family.
A daughter and son are supposed
to be living. The youngest, a
daughter, was never strong. Af
ter her mother died. Rev. Horner
for a time had the sole -care of
her. to which he devoted him
self. The ' father married a second
wife. She was nearly deaf, and
remained mostly at home, though
she was a faithful helpmeet.
". V
Rev. Horner died at the Good
Samaritan hospital at Portland,
after a major operation. Prof.
John B. Horner took the bodies
of his mother, his step-father and
his half-sister to CorvalUs, and
had them buried there.
Mrs. John M. Clark of Salem
declares that, though she was but
two years old when her brother
Ellas Ruark Horner started from
Ohio to Join the California gold
rush, she remembers seeing him
take his departure, and that - It
was a great event la the life of
that , family. Such a memory of
one so young is not Impossible,
though is Is unusual. Alt the cir
cumstances related in this article
serve to enlarge, the luster of
John B. Horner's glorious life,
if any set of circumstances were
needed to do this.

Chapter 9
Paul Bodine's hands moved in
silent . applause, and he glanced
in amusement toward Douglas.
"See what strenuous times you
have come back to. Who but
some legendary hero of the past
could hope to live up to this golden-haired
firebrand? Certainly
not a peace-loving painter like
myself who each day gives thanks
that he is not a rancher."
Douglas laughed. "What an ex
citing and unpredictable world I
am coming back to a world fill
ed with mystery, terror, and love
ly, militant women. These raid
ers and their Chinese killer
promise to make life interesting."
"Interesting!" The word came
like a cry of reproach, from All-,
son, and she leaned forward, her
gray eyes like steel. "If you had
ridden out one morning to find
your father dead at their hands,
if you had fought year after year
a losing fight against them and
in spite of everything saw your
self on the brink of failure "
She stopped, her lips trembling,
and Douglas' sensitive face soft
ened. "I regret what I have said, sen-
orlta. Tour pardon."
It was long minutes before the
impact of the girl's words died
away, and to relieve the tension
Paul Bodine fell to bantering Lo
la. "You hare not posed for me In
ten days." he chided. "Each
morning, that half finished canvas
looks at me with, reproach. Yet
you will not come and be Immor
talized." "But you always, make lore to
me." I
"I always shall so bring a
chaperone next time."
"I'll bring my big cousin."
In quiet appraisal Douglas' eyes
passed from one to the other of
his guests, and now they returned
to Alison Neale. There waa some
thing not easily understood about
this girl who sat beside him, and
toward himself he was conscious
of a subdued was it disapproval
or actual hostility? There was
something guarded about her too
something hidden beneath that
clear, level glance. Was she too
finding it necessary to play a
part?
The servants were -bringing
coffee when Lola called across
the table, "Remember your man
dolin. Jack? Yesterday I tuned
it in honor of your return the
dust of years was on it." Run
ning from the table, she disap
peared in the direction, of the pa
tio, and a moment later returned
bearing a well-worn mandolin.
Curiously Douglas took it from

her and swept the strings. "I had
almost forgotten its touch," he
said.
Alison watched him as with
bent head he began strumming
chords from the Instrument. The
man puzzled her. Quiet, smiling,
always at ease, speaking as if he
gave a special thought to what
ever he said with that soft,
slightly foreign accent of his. She
liked the deferential air he had
toward women, liked the almost
intangible wall of reserve, and
yet always he seemed a little
amused, as if at some secret
thought, and toward herself she
felt a kind of armed neutrality.
Again she looked at the dark,
finely chiseled features, that high
nose of the Blasios going back
generation after generation to the
first founders of the family who
had come with Cortes and his
Conaulstadores. Yes, the blood
of conquerors ran in the veins
of this man who sat beside her
touching the strings of a mando
lin. "Sing the nightingale song,"
Lola commanded.
Douglas started to sing a song
his mother taught him years ago:
"En una jaula de oro,
"Pendiente de un balcon
"Una trlste calandria
"Lloraba "
Abruptly the voice ceased. The
sound of frantic galloping clat
tered down the roadway. A
moment later Ed Paxton burst
into the room, his hair wet with
sweat, his mouth working, and in
a voice choked with the dust of
riding, he rasped, "They've shot
Frank Baker."
Sreryone had risen, and Doug
tepped forward. "Is he bad
ly hurt?"
"Dead."
The word lingered like an echo
among the tapestries of that sud
denly silent room. It seemed
darker, more chill, as if death it
self had entered with the rider,
and looking uneasily at one an
other, none spoke. Douglas
hsnded Paxton a glass of water,
and the man drank greedily, wip
ing his mouth with the back of
his hand.
"Thanks," he gasped.
"Now tell us."
"There ain't much to tell. I
found him two hours ago up on
the edge of the foothills, lying
under a pinon. His six-gun was
empty, a pile of shells lay beside
him. They'd come for him in
broad daylight and they'd ridden
around him firing five of them.
He put up a fight to the end.
but he hadn't a chance. They
were packing rifles and kept out
of his range. The bark was chip
ped clean off the pine.'" He was
cold when I got there. Then I
saw this in his hand."
In Paxton's outstretched palm
lay a small stone of greenish
white, and carved in its . center
was the crude figure of an owl.
"The Yellow Killer!" 'Father
Bodine made a sign of the cross,
and a long, shuddering sigh crept
through the room.
- "I been looking for something
like this," Paxton's voice went
on. "I warned him. v
"What did you warn him?"
"That he talked too much."
Douglas had been examining
the tiny carved stone. "Is any
one following their tracks?" he
asked -
- "The wind's been blowing up
there for days now. Less than a
mile from where X found him the
tracks disappeared.
Hands clenched, Douglas walk
ed to the window, his eyes fixed
on the darkening desert. Dead!
Frank Baker dead. A few hours
ago that same man had ridden be
side him, eager and 'unafraid,
filled with plans for the future,
and once more, like a ghostly
echo Douglas - heard the boyish
voice again. "Now you're back.
Boss, well show them." Well,
ha was back and the man who
had spoken those words was- lying
dead beneath a plnon, the wind
covering him with desert sand.
It was a moment Douglas would
never quite forget, for its passing
left him irrevocably changed, with
something of the world's old
friendliness forever gone. This
unseen hand that had struck at
him through Baker loomed sud
denly closer. They had not wait
ed long, those border killers, and
with dazzling clearness Douglas
realized the strategy of their sud
den blow. They were trying to
test the mettle of the new master
of Miracle Mesa; to make him de
clare himself. If he declared open
war on them, it would be a sig
nal for his instant annihilation;
if he hesitated he might sacrifice
all chance of leadership among
the valley ranchers.

News Behind
By PAUL
WASHINGTON, Dee. 16 Mr.
Ickea did not slip, neither was
he pushed Into that statement
opposing McNutt for IS 40.
The amazing deflation of one
of the president's top workers by
another top worker came about
from a question at a press, confer
ence. A friendly newsman, one
of the columnists whom Mr. Ickes
approves, asked what the inter
ior secretary would do If the
president, did not run.
The cabinet officer did not .
appear shocked, or even sur
prised -at the extraordinary
lnjuiry. He did not call the
White Iloaan to find oat if his
. hopes that his 'bora would not
support the handsome Hoosler
were Justified. Without grasp-
L lag for words, he spoke his -
piece.
In its first version, it seemed
somewhat vague to the newsmen.
Several went back in a group to
see him and asked if they heard
him right. He made clear Jie
meant McNutt, Paul McNutt. so
cial security administrator. He did
not back down. He said even
more. His press publicity man
approved the . quotes that were
generally used in the press.
The interior secretary's state
ments scarcely arouse the town
any more, but this one did. not
only because of the circumstan
ces under which It was made,
but because of the Inside White
House situation. Two democratic
liberal congressmen who string
along with the Corcoran-Cohen-Ickes
crowd, for example, pri
vately applauded the statement
and said it was the opening sig
nal for an official McNutt defla
tion campaign by that group.
There - had been reports the
president wss dissatisfied with
activities of McNutt's campaign
friends for ten days or so previ
ously. The wrestling Incident
(when McNutt attended -a meet
ing at which one wrestling en
tertainer voluntarily lost his
trousers so he could display there
under a McNutt banner in an in
appropriate but expansive place),
the American Legion convention
failure of McNutt's friends, and
some other things like a local so
ciety writer's published interview
with a member of McNutt's fam
ily purporting to indicate the
Hoosler's impatience to ascertain
whether the White House court
ing intentions were strictly honor
able these and other similarly
minor matters were supposed to
have displeased the president, as
well they might, although McNutt
certainly was not responsible for
all of them, if any.
Consequently it looks like an
other fair-hailed boy for 1940
may be given a close trim by the
official barbers.
As McNutt loses his official
halo, the whole inside democrat
ic situation will turn around
again. He was brought in here
to beat off among others, Mr.
Garner, the VP, who was then
running off with the show.
Earlier, the new dealers had
tried Bob Jackson, Harry Hop
kins, Bill Douglas, Gov. Stark
of Missouri (mildly), and some
thing went wrong with each.
Agriculture Secretary Wallace
stepped forward once or twice
and had his hair singed. So

MALLOI1
did democratic chairman, Jim
Farley.
The subsequent McNutt bulld
nup had proceeded so far that
ambitious bandwagon riders were
crowding the front row on the
assumption that Mr. Roosevelt
was for him. A newsweek poll
showed 15 political reporters here
picked him for first choice guess,
12 as second, on no other ground
that is apparent.
His passing from the official
limelight would leave no one
for the Corcoran-Ickes school ex
cept Mr. Roosevelt, who always
has been, of course, their only
real candidate. But it also brinet
back into the spotlight three of
ficially unpicked men with whom
the school boys will have to deal
at the convention Garner, Far
ley and Hull.
This big tnree has not been
crowding the limelight., but they
will have a lot of delegates
amongst them. Any successful
candidate at the convention will
have to deal with them, and at
least two of them (Garner and
Farley) are against third terms.
Mr. Garner will issue a state
ment of his4 political intentions
no later than January 15.' It
will probably be a short statement-
that he will accept the
nomination, if offered, accom
panied by a word of encourage
ment to his workers - for their
' coming efforts In the primaries.
The VP's friends figure no in
itial speechmaking efforts are
necessary as his stands on
Tarions issues are well known.
Coming big man behind tht
new utility power. program is E.
F. Scattergood, head of the .os
Angeles municipal power system.
He is an experienced operating
man who was brought in quietly
as adviser to the national defense
power committee. Mr. Scatter
good is open minded, independent
and against political baiting en
the utility issues. .
