President. Jlember of The Associated ' Press The Associated Press la exclusively entitled ta tha DM for pabllealloa f all bws dispatch credited te it or aot other-vIm- credited la this newspaper. Defense Program and Business v' The Thomas Kay woolen mill in Salem has been awarded a substantial' contract to make blankets for the war depart ment. Pretty soft that is, for the soldiers. The linen mills here may also be expected to share in the defense program, and possibly some other industries. Several Portland firms ' have received contracts. United States News published an extremely distorted- - looking map of the nation, expanding or contracting the areas of states in ratio to the size of defense contracts awarded up to the first otthis month. New Jersey with contracts amount ing to more than 198 million dollars, .seemed to dominate the area east of the Mississippi. New Jersey together with Vir ginia (187 million), Massachusetts (183 million), New xorK (90 million), Connecticut (61 million) and Pennsylvania (55 I million) took up most of the area east of the Rockies. Oregon with less than half a million was a tiny speck up near the cor ner: Washington and California were vastly shrunken; Ida- no ana .Montana were not visioie at an. That was the first of the month ; now the two-ocean navy program is starting and Pacific coast states will take on greater importance, receiving one-fourth of the construction work. Oregon's dearth of shipyards will prevent its exten v sive participation. Meanwhile there is an announced policy to center defense industries inland where tney win re saie irom blitzkrieg. Western Oregon, again, is a little too near the ocean. On the other hand, there is Bonneville power to attract industries to this area. ' The distribution of defense contracts is important but not overwhelminirly important. No matter where factories are located, other communities must furnish materials. Lum ber demand will be extensive, and Oregon can supply it. In dustry is bound to eo ahead, sumer goods demand, stepped to be filled in addition to the To sum it all up, business is going to be good while the defense nroflrram is under way. The next question is, how long will the defense program that an early peace will cause its abandonment? The answer seems to be "no." And this is the reasoning: If. Germany wins an early victory over Great Britain, the United States must continue to arm. On the other hand, if Great Britain wins it will not be an early victory. Supposing that the tide is turning in Britain's favor right now, it will be vears before Germany can So the United States may increased industry and "eood also for the somewhat protracted future. It should not be overlooked that a big defense machine creates nothing; if it ever does more" than tram for an emergency, its business will be to destroy. The nation must support it. The tax program is designed to suDDort it larjrely through the levying of ex cess profits taxes. These will serve to prevent the creation of new millionaires, but to expect such taxes on defense indus try to support the defense program is to believe in perpetual motion. The people will be taxed heavily ; even so the national . debt will increase ; the budget . pens when it becomes time to of that; it's only headache. all be busy and the chances are we 11 all eat. . 3Ir. Wallace's Dreams Mr. Wallace has eaten too many lobsters recently. He has been having bad dreams, which would not be important if he would not insist on imposing them on the country. When he does, as he has rather extensively during the last two weeks, he is both tedious and implausible, and the country may soon tell him so. It could only have been tions of a not very recondite cent outbursts about the appeasers in the republican ranks, and it must have been a particularly restless night which gave birth to the oratorical assertion Tuesday that cavernous economic depression would inevitably result should the re publicans be returned to power Coming from an ordinary would be nothing, more than something to shrug one's should ers about. But originating from a man who Jias previously borne a reputation" for rigorous exactitude as to facts as he saw them, these speeches are more than usually unedifying. Take the one at Hastings, Here the former secretary of iginality, plucked forth the republican party, to a man, being appeasers anxious to sell the country out to Germany. It apparently never occurred to the speaker that such a sell-out would involve the sellers in destruction as well as the country, and that the suggestion is patently ridiculous anyway : Then Mr. Wallace tuned all the trumpets, and, speaking like' an elder descending cautiously and a little mournfully from his private Zion, prophesied "an economic depression more severe than those of either 1921 or 1932," should the republicans be returned to power. He included the proper ad mixture of hellfire and brimstone; and then, in the eternal quest for peace, turned to the democratic government of his heart's desire, which would lead "genuinely wide-visioned business men' through a troubled period of transition from armament production to peacetime production without a tremor. It was the apocalypse, ing away on the 'death of Arthur; and reassuring, as demo cratic speeches always have to That was about all, except for a minor fling at the re publicans as "obstructionists" opposing the president's arm ament program, which was clearly false in the sense in which he meant it. The whole performance was a uttle unhappy, like the brave knight, without fear or reproach, going into the den of thieves and trying to beat them at. their own po ker game. One had thought rather better of the former secretary,- despite the inauspicious circumstances of his draft ing by the president. But politics has a way of revealing ex actly how mean or how exalted a man can be, and this is no exception. One could only wish the secretary slept better. ; : v Forest Fire Season i Ends It is not too late for a setback another protracted dry - spell which would renew the danger but for the present at least thf recent copious rains have terminated the forest fire season. and in view of the unusual August drought, the best guess is that there will be sufficient September rain to pre , vent a recurrence of fire danger. ! It has been an unusuallyjjpng and unusually dry sum mer; It will be recalled that Warnings were broadcast early in June by- federal and state foresters, that conditions then current, aggravated by the winter's dearth of snow, were bound to create an exceptional forest fire peril. ;4 This condition prevailed throughout the Pacific nbrthr west, and in some sections, notably northern Idaho and west ern Montana, there has been a heavy fire loss. There light ning set thousands of fires almost simultaneously and huge crews of fire-fighters worked desperately for days to halt the flame demon. - , j -? : - -. But Oregon, in spite of the dangerous potentialities, en joyed one of its least destructive forest fire seasons in years. A year ago at this time the foresters ruefully counted 311, 676 acres burned over. This year the total was little more than one-tenth of that; only 33,273 acres. The danger -was real but, like Hitler's inyasion of Eng land which has not yet occurred, it received reams of advance publicity; and, like the people on their guard against forest for there is the normal con up by increased employment armament demand. continue?

At page 15S of that book, Baah- rora said: ; -weDiey j. Hauxhurst was born on Long Island. New Tork. received an excellent Christlaa training la a good Quaker home, but, like many another . young man. ha was seised with the wanderlust and atrayed to Cali fornia and later, went to Oregon witn tne Tonng and Kelly party, "The year after his arrival la Oregon he waa brought under conviction of sin by Lee's Breach lng and by the earnestenas of the Indian children's prayers, was converted, joined the church, and remained a useful eltisen of Ore gon until his death. -a "Being a millwright, he erect ed lor tne Methodist mission the first American grist mill la Ore gon, and thus made a practical and very real contribution to the deliYery or the Americans from the Hudson's Bay company's mo nopoly and to the advancement of tne settlement of the Willamette alley." Bancroft's Oregon History, page 95. volume 1, says: "One of roung-s men. Webley Hauxhurst. erected a gristmill at Champoeg in tne summer or 1834, adding greatly to the convenience and comrort of the inhabitants of French Prairie, Including the missionaries, who had previously pounaea their barley in a large wooden mortar, and ground their wneat In a small cast-iron mill called a corn-cracker. ". . The 'Bancroft statement Is. of course, Daaiy bungled. Hauxhurst could not have erected a rrlat- mill in Oregon in the summer of 1834. for he did not arrive from California till the fall of that year, reaching Fort Van couver, Oct. 15, 1834. This writer believes BiahoD uasmora was right: that Haux nurst erected the mill for the Jason Lee mission "the year after his arrival in Oregon." which was in 1835. This writer believes that rrist mill was built on the small creek a few hundred feet north of the first mission houses the creek one crosses going north from Sa Iem, over a bridge some hund reds of yarda before coming to the Wheatland ferry on the east side. w . xjancrort says on the same page 95: "Hauxhurst joined the Methodist church, being the first rruit or missionary work amonr xne settlers. His conversion took place in January, 1837, and he was ever afterward a faithful adherent to the organization." 1. xiauxnurst may nave exner- lencea conversion In . January. 1837, but his baptism was on July If of that year. Bashford told it correctly, thus: "Charles J. Roe and Webley J. Hauxhurst were BAPTIZED AND RECEIV ED INTO THE CHURCH." That waa on the Sunday of tne marriage ox the first white men and women: Anna Maria Plttman to Jason Lee. Susan Downing to Cyrus Shepard. On the same day Charles J. Roe mar lied Nancy McKay, three-quart ers inaian daughter of Capt, Tom McKay and his Clatsoo wife. Nancy died, and, as old and reg ular readers of this column will recall. Roe afterward married another half Indian girl, known as Angelica, as told to this writer by an old timer. Bancroft aays she waa a girl of good character. Roe became jealous of and mur dered her, and. April I. 1859, was hanged for the - confessed crime, at what is now near the northeast corner of Church and Trade streets, where had been the first Marlon county (lor) lall. which had burned dowa In 1157. Mrs. Velleda Ohmart. oldest living native resident of Salem, saw that hanging. She waa a mall girl In her fifth year, for she was bora Jan. 22, 1855. Some seo to 1500 people were present at that hanging. It was before the law required hangings to be In encloaed places; long before they were all performed la the state penitentiary; and now. has oeen snosututed the gaa cham ber for executions, also at the state prison. . - The gray of the murdered wife of Roe was a Uttle way ap the hill from the middle front entrance of the IOOP '. cemetery, on the south side of the entering road.

This at any rate has been the nrenonderant view of our mm- tarv authorities who have been tittinr on the edjre or tneir chairs watching the Incoming dis matches. It is true mere is an other school among-them. Some of our air officers have faith in the ability of the air arm alone to break the backbone morale oi an enemy.

The situation of Lon don Is different. Some three mil lion undefeated soldiers are un der arms around the island. Their ports are open to all the food producing nations oi tne world, and they have the money to buy and the ships to carry. Tho air-minded school Holds that destruction of - water mains, gas supply, electrical energy, would, when added to tho destruction of docking fa cilities, cause resistless civilian pressure upon the government for a negotiated peace. They expected the constantly increas ing severity of destruction would csaue ousting of the Churchill government and es tablishment of a peace party, la control. (Everyone agrees Britain will never give ta as lonr as Churchill fa at the top.) This no doubt reflects Hitler's aim and he has proven himself in the past surprisingly correct in his unique military theories Bat the prevailing opinion from the beginning of the bombing here has been that Hitler cannot win without defeating the army, cannot defeat the army without Invasion, cannot Invade until he gets -air superiority, and the ex perience of London la , only a great dramatic sideshow which cannot be decisive. , The next week or ten daya should tell the tale. The republican high command has aot paid as much attention to the let-down in the Willkie campaign as has the press. Those who have been to the Willkie camp la Rushville report that the candidate deliberately plan ned to ease down, the tempo In preparation for the final drive. The rhythm has been carefully arranged for the future to lead up gradually to a high pitch the last two weeks before election day. The leaders seem fairly well pleased with this new. way of doing things, remembering that the Landon campaign had its let down after October 1.

We are not preparing merely for de fense; we are not arming merely to preserve our American peace; the national guardsmen who are leaving for a year's training and the draftees who will soon be called are not simply a defensive force; the destroyers which we have donated to Britain are not a simple trade all are part of the preparation for WAR. We cannot escape the feeling that Incomparable harm will come from the devloua and dishonest course which President Roosevelt Is taking to lead us into war, The American, people have never quite recovered!, from, the moral shock of being led Into the last World war six months after Woodrow Wilson had won reelection on the promise that he had "kept us out of war." The American people will fight this new war cheerfully and valiantly If they must but , they will never forget that Mr. Roose velt led them into It step by step under the cover of pretended neu trality, i Is it any wonder that American people are growing cynical? Is Is any wonder that they lose faith in leadership? It may be true, aa Paul Mallon points out, that if Mr. Roosevelt had dared a year ago to make the destroyer deal or to take the warlike measures ho is taking now, there "would have been ' mobs in Pennsylvania avenue." This paper ventured to predict a year ago that Roosevelt policy would lead us to war, re ceived r considerable abuse for saying so. Had Mr. Roosevelt had, the moral courage to deal frankly' with 1 his people, he would enjoy real confidence now. We who have lives to give on call have a right to reseat such leadership. It mocks us. It belittles the courage and the traditions of a great na tion. ' The , harm la not that we are on the' way to war but that we are marching without colors fly ing. The evil of such cowardice wilt live, ho matter what worthy purpose may be accomplished. Eugene Register-Guard. 4:15 Speed. 4:80 Novelette. , - 4:45 New. .
