the world doubtless belong at
States ; yet when President Roosevelt said some months ago
that if Canada were attacked by a European power this na
tion would have to go to her defense, no violent opposition to
the idea developed.
Two months ago the Scandinavian countries might have
disputed our claim to superlative pacifism. That was before
out saying that Norway, Sweden and Denmark are just as
anxious to live at peace as they ever were. But with one im
portant difference, they are exactly in the position that the
United Stated would be if Canada were attacked. They know
that if the aggressor succeeds in his present objective; they'll
be next.
The difference is that they are not first-rate military
powers and are geographically vulnerable. If Canada were in
vaded, the United States would declare war. But when Fin
land is invaded, its neighbors are forced to the other alter
native; unofficial aid to Finland.
Almost from the start there have been suspicions that
the Finnish resistance to the Russian invaders had the ben
efit of some substantial foreign props. When Finland began
striking back by air, these suspicions were elevated to the
status of near-certainty, especially when coupled with stories
that the Italian fliers who took war planes to Finland stayed
to fly them. If fascist Italians are fighting for democratic
Finland, what help must the defenders be receiving from the
rest of Scandinavia, from England and France if they can
, spare it from all the countries whose sympathy for the
plucky little nation is backed up by self-interest? It isn't safe
- to deny even Germany a possible share in this program.
What this aid amounts to in sum total no one may yet
estimate, but actually there is no limit to its possibilities ; if
the "Finns" with all their foreign recruits should counter-attack
on land and lay siege to Moscow, there should be no real
occasion for surprise.
Sugar Quotas Restored
As evidence that sugar prices have receded to pre-war
levels, the announcement that President Roosevelt will re
store marketing quota provisions of the 1937 sugar control
act, effective January 1, may be classed as good news. Its
meaning to sugar beet producers in the United States is not
so pleasant, even aside from the reduction in retail prices.
The news story of the announcement serves to spotlight
the fact that the quota regulations allot only 23.19 per cent of
all sugar marketed in this country to domestic producers; the
remainder is parcelled out among our island possessions and
protectorates. This not only prevents expansion of the do
mestic industry but limits sugar beet production areas to
acreages and amounts which do not permit of economical op
eration. The eastern Oregon and southern Idaho industry
which Is just now hitting its stride, is seriously handicapped
ly these restrictions. '
What is worse, the president and Secretaries Hull, Wal
lace and Ickes have all indicated lack of friendliness to the
continental sugar industry, deeming it "expensive" whereas
man-hour costs in this industry are lower than in the island
industries, which can compete only because wages and stand
ards of living are incomparably lower. Sugar is the outstand
ing example of the "good neighbor policy" projection to ludi
crous lengths to the detriment of American industry.

who find it objectionable are going to attend unawares and
are going to sit through it rather than face the greater em

Came to this desk, some days
ago. from Max Gehlhar, Salem,
then at the Morrison hotel,- Chi
cago, on a business visit there, a
letter reading:
"Please note enclosed. Is there
any connection between this and
the naming of our Willamette? In
the early records of Marlon county
there la mention of a Frenchman
named Onlmette, bnt the name
did not contain the 1 as here at
Chicago.
The "enclosed" was a clipping
from the Chicago Sunday Tribune,
one of the great newspapers ; ot
that metropolis, ander. the head
line. "Illinois Sold for $10,000 in
1829, Treaty Copies Show," and
under tne heading these para
graphs:
"Photostatic copies of- two
treaties between the government
and Indian nations in the early
1800s. by which the land In Chi
cago and Cook county, now val
ued at more than $5,000,000,000,
was obtained from the tribes con-

"In a treaty between a commis
sion of the United States and the
United Nations of Chippewa, Ot
tawa and Pottawatomie Indians
at Prairie du Chien. July 29, 1889,
practically the whole of northern
Illinois was bought for a sum ot
'$18,000 annually, forever. In
specie, to be paid In Chicago.
"This treaty. Interpreted by J.
C. MUler of Oak Park, first vice
president of the society, further
list '$12,000 in goods as a gift to
the chiefs, 50 barrels of salt an
nually and the unlimited use of a
blacksmith shop In Chicago.'
"Among the signers of this
deaty were Antoine Ouilmette, for
whom the present town of Wil-
mette is named; Alexander Wol-
cott, then Indian agent; Lt. CoL
Zachary Taylor, later to become
president (of the Cnited States),
and John in? Klnzie, for whom
Klnzie street is named.
"The area purchased was
bounded on the south br a line
extending from the southernmost
part of the lake to a point on
Rock river 40 miles north of Its
mouth; on the west by the river,
and on the north by a line from
Ouilmette s land on the lake to
Rock river.
"The Black Hawk wars were
fought in 1832 and in 1833 a sec

"According to Mr. Miller, from

about the payments to the Indians
for the land, the government paid
about $60,000 for what is now
north and central Illinois."
So ends the article clipped from
the Chicago Tribune. It is evi
dent, the careful reader will
agree, that the head writer in the
Tribune newspaper office put the
matter too strong when he wrote
Illinois Sold for $60,000 in
1829," when it was what Is now
north and central Illinois that
was sold for that sum, after 1833.
Also, the careful reader will note

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT
If every Christian neither had
cheated or broke covenant, what
power the church would be!
It would indeed be the light of the
world. When Jew and Gentile
could point to us and say: There
is a people you can trust. They
neither deceive nor break- faith.
How can this so-called Chris
tianity light or salt the earth
when it Is unable to salt itself, Is
not at peace among Itself, trying
to get advantage of each other
rather than seek to do the will of
God? To err in Judgment or un
derstanding is human but this
cannot divide us. The dividing
line is sharply drawn: it Is be
tween honesty, sincerity and hy
pocrisy and deceit.
In John 8:44 Jesus tells us
where the latter class belong. Our
Lord gave only two signs by
which to recognize his children.
"By their fruits (works)" Matth.
7:15-18. and "that ye love one
another," John 13:35.
John also tells us that "God
la Love," consequently this is the
highest possible attainment -' for
as humans. Again he says: "Who
soever does not righteousness is
not ot God neither he that loves
not his brother." 1 John 3:10.
True love Is the seal ot the living
God. spoken of U Rev. 7:8. The
same apostle tells us that "who
soever hates his brother Is a mur
derer and ye know that no mur
derer has eternal life abiding la
aim. This la the mark ot the
beast. . ; .-;
This la the causa ot wars, strife
aad factions In the world. This
must all go before peace can come
to the world. A , good . place to
start Is la our secular schools,
where there la too much national
pride, race hatred, and frivolity
is taught. Next but not least are
our sectarian schools, teaching
religious prejudice, hatred aad
faction even unconsciously. They
are good In a way but like a dish
of chicken noodles with, a little
deadly slow poison fa it. Then

possible that the Onlmette of
Marlon county was related to the
Ouilmette of the section around
Chicago, and that they were both
French Canadian hunters and
trappers, or related to such.

"Not a soul. Shall we go in?"
"Better talk here." No trace of
hesitation In the voice now. That
veil of apathy and Indifferent
slouch were gone. The whole char

given place to instant alertness.
Record looked anxiously up.
"What's new, Jack?"
"A great many things. Do yon
remember that old peon with the
scared face I found outside the
morada? I've been on the lookout
for him ever since, hoping to
make him talk."
"What luck?"
"None except that one of my
vaqneros remembers that Just
such a peon once worked on the
Neale Ranc h." Thoughtfully
Douglas added, "And he's never
been seen since. Sam, I keep
thinking of his terror that night.
He cringed like a beaten dog
and he had reason to. There is a
conspiracy against all human life
here. It is like some crazy dream.
No, I can't tell you yet what the
purpose is, but I can tell yon the
effect it's having. Ranchers are
leaving every week. You can't
hire herders or riders they're
terrified of the raiders and ot the
Killer. In two more years this val
ley, the most fertile spot on the
border, will be abandoned. That's
what we're coming to. Last week
I tried to borrow money In Verde;
the bankers are afraid to lend to
anyone In the valley. We're being
squeezed out. Our only chance is
to run down the Killer."
"What about Paxton? Has it
ever occurred to you he comes
nearer to being the size of the
Yellow Killer than anyone else?"
"You mean that it might be an
American masquerading as a Chi
nese?" "Why not? It's been done."
"I've thought about that I
think Baker suspected Paxton of
something. Certainly he has no
spare love for me. At first he was
wary of me, but now he is con
vinced I am only a negligible im
becile. No, Paxton might be quite
capable of brutish violence, but
never of the fiendish cruelty of
the Yellow Killer. Besides, he
owes everything to my aunt, and
she swears by his loyalty. That re
minds me. Tonight I am having
Alison Neale at the hacienda. I
may even show some of these ter

smiling.

Douglas whole posture changed.

the man's face was obscured by a

The voice was high and liquid.
"Finding any gold?"
A vigorous shake ot the head
and an abashed laugh were the
only answer, and turning, he rode
down the trail.
The two men did not speak
again until the Chinaman had dis
appeared. But now Douglas' eyes
were bright with excitement.
"Who is this Lin Foo?" he
asked as the sound of the burro's
passing died away.
"That's Alison Neale's cook.
He's not much for looks. Is he?
For the past year he'a got the

"Would you say there la any

"Probably not but would you
be willing to swear the figure you

Record hesitated. "I'd say It

best minds of the colonies got
together, affirmatively in peace
and hope for the future and
worked out what they thought
would be the best government for

expressed in this column in dif
ferent and sometimes more com
plete words, notably In a column
of last August 9. Others no doubt
may have said It better elsewhere.
But the fundamental proposi
tion of climbing out of this hole
at the top by expansion with na
tional benevolence and coopera
tion, instead of tube-feeding the
economic system from the treas
ury and trying to bolster the sides
of the hole against collapse by ad
mittedly temporary political de
vices, is one to which the coun
try will pay increasing attention
In the next six months.
Only answer yet offered to
Dewey and his challenge to de
featism Is to ask another ques
tion how? What is his formula?
No doubt this inquiring response
will make a big public impression,
because people seem to be looking
for a man with a formula. A
great many citizens apparently be
lieve prosperity can be reached
by pushing economic buttons.

could lift this country out, the
elevator experts la the govern
ment would bo doubt have had
ns at the top floor long ago.
The answer to this situation
la more apt to be found in
men's minds than in books on
economic magic.
Mr. Roosevelt's administration
has proved this. His most suc
cessful policy was purely psycho
logical.' The strongest period of re
covery he has produced came
from the clear cool words without
promises that he uttered from the
steps of the capitol in the driving
rain of his first Inauguration day
when the country was at the
depths He said everything was
going to be all right and he con
vinced the country it would be
solely from the Inspiration of his
self-confidence. No artificial de
Vice he concocted since that time
has been so effective.
A few slight changes in exist
ing policies and especially the
tone of government might make
a wide difference , in national
spirit.
Any man who can raise the na
tional spirit like that again now.
can sweep all statistics and
prophets of gloom off the table
like dominos with one sweep iif
the hand. People would think dif
ferently, act differently. Money
would again be invested, business
men would take chances, a short
age of labor and credit could de
velop. The old spirit of America
would return.
At least It is one thing that
has not been tried.
