I Axis Pledge Week
a Exactly what Japan and

and on for the last four or five
on the side of the axis powers
economies, their mulcted people and their peanut-minded
leaders need.
The axis leaders, the Hollywood-smooth Ciano and the
two-bit Bismarck, Ribbentrop, have bee -trying to sell;the
Spanish on declaring war against Britain in the expectation
of regaining Gibraltar, lost since 1704, The Japanese have
had "axis support dangled in front of thcjr.jjoses for their
far eastern policy, and are apparently willing to take per
haps the longest shot known and accept a German-Italian
promise at face value. In return, they will clean up Britain
and the United States in, the orient.
The idea is really rather simple, as the axis smoothies
have been attempting point out to the Spanish and Japan
ese diplomats for a number of weeks. Both countries, one lo
cated in the extreme west of Europe and the other in the f ar
therest Far East, can cash in in a territorial sense, and also
become charter members of the new order .in Western Eu
rope, all for a little military support in crucial spots at a
time when the British empire is taking its worst soaking in
centuries.

What is not mentioned is how the German air force is going
to help the Japanese strike at the East Indies and Australia
VjCthough to take the Berlin papers at face value, the German
J? fliers could do it from their present leases with half a tank
of gas and only one wing) , and exactly how a German fleet
is to be built and transported overland to Singapore.
It sounds easier, though, for the Spanish. All they have
to do is wave their arms, make grimaces and loud outcries
like the ancient Iberians who had a tough time with the Ro
man legions, and let the German Landwehr boys do the work
around Gibraltar. How it will be when the blockade cuts off
theHbare supplies of oil and wheat which have been coming
to Spain even now is conveniently ignored, but then this sub
ject may be only a democratic affectation of people who are
' naive enough to think men have to eat to live. The new or
der will fix that.
And so it goes. The Spaniards and the Japanese have a
good deal in common, and one of the things they share, is
rulers who are not especially bright. That the people should
suffer for them is a tragic thing, however, and one for which

' ' The City Manager Plan-V
I , Medford is operating under a municipal system which is
nominally less similar to the city manager plan than that of
Hillsboro, which was described in the fourth article of this
series, but appears actually to be a closer adaptation than
, Hillsboro's. Medford has not changed its charter at all, yet
it has a city superintendent who exercises many of the func
tions of a city manager. r . .
' Medford's case is significant for obviously the city is
under no legal obligation to retain this tystem; it must, in
fact, strain a point or two in order to operate under such a
plan; yet its imperfect adaptation of the city manager idea
i has worked out so well that it is being retained and officials
' are hoping to take further steps in that direction, as the fol
lowing letter, which this newspaper received from Mayor
C. C. Furnas, reveals: . '
. This Trill acknowledge your inquiry with reference to the
- form of municipal administration of the City of Medford.
. - Purauant to the charter of the City of Medford, the admln
lstratlon of the city is in. the Mayor and eight elected council
men; '-r 'vV,i-S:f ' f - V ,

Hy R. J. HENDRICKS
Vancourer la oldest town 9.27-41
In Washington; atory of how '
it was atarted by McLoughlln
of the Hudson'a Bar Company:
- -V -b
One may find la Meanys His
tory of the State ot Washington
a rather. Interesting story, of the
founding of the first town in what
is now the state of Washington,
Vancouver. It reads: .: : .-v ;
. "On going down the Columbia
river in 1124 to take up his work
at Fort George (present Astoria),
he. (Dr. John vIel-oughlln) ob
serred an attractive littl plain
approaching the bank of the rirer
near Point Vancouver, the high
est, place reached by Lieutenant
Broughton in 17 X."
. i- . w s .-.--vr
(That was Lieutenant Wn. R.
Broughton, under orders from
Captain George Vancouver of the
British Royal .Navy, .who, .upon
hearing of the dlacovery 'by Cap
tain Robert Gray In the early
afternoon of May 11, 1492, ot the
River ot the West, having crossed
the bar and. anchored his ship
the Columbia a half mile from the
north bank of that river west of
Point El lice, northwest of what
ia now Astoria, and . close to a
large village 'of Chinook Indians,
had named, the. River, of the West
the Colombia, alter hla vessel.
Lieutenant Broughton- had, :eom
iag over the- Colombia bar;- left
hla vesself the Chatham, at anchor
off what is now the Quarantine
station opposite Astoria, October
24, 1792. (The reader will note
that he was five months and II
days after Gray in getting into
the Columbia.) Then Broughton
ascended the Columbia with most
of his crew in two boats, the
plnnance and cutter, to a" point
above Wash ougal. making obser
vations and soundings and be
stowing names upon island
though he had been the discover
er of the River of the West, and
the British government the own
er ot it. On the sixth day he
named Mount Hood, for Alexander
Arthur Hood, afterward Lord
Brlnfort of England, a personal
friend of Vancouver. Broughton
was one of the cockiest, nerviest
fellows ot all history; what Is
more, the American people let
him get away with it, and have
not slapped his ears down, so to
speak, in all these 148 years.)
Quoting Meany further: . "That
was chosen as the site, and early
in 182S McLoughlln began the
conatructlon of Fort Vancouver.
(That was of course Dr. John Mc
Loughlln. who had become chief
factor of the Hudson's Bay com
pany, ana so virtually the em
peror of the Oregon Country,
with absolute power, though the
joint occupancy agreement be
tween the .United States and
Great Britain was In effect; on
paper.)
V
"At that time the Horticultural
Society of London had sent out to
the Columbia river a represents
tlve whom the Indians soon called
the 'Grass' Man.' This was David
Douglas, . the famous Scotch bot
anist. (The Douglas fir was, right
fully, named for him.) Dr. Mc
Ioughlin took him to Vancouver in
a boat on April t. 1825, and he
at once began excursions for seeds
and plants. Returning from one
of these, he made this Interesting
entry in his journal:
" 'I arrived, at Fort Vancouver
on August 6th, and employed my
self until the 18th in drying the
specimens I had collected, and
making abort Journeya In quest of
seeds and plants; my labors being
materially retarded by the rainy
weather. As there were NO
HUU3E3 yet built on this new
station, I at first occupied a tent,
which was kindly offered me, and
then removed to a larger deer-skin
tent, which soon, however, became
too small for me, in consequence
of the augmentation ot my collec
tions. A hut, constructed ot the
bark of 'thuja Occldentalis'
(cedar), was my next habitation,
and there I shall probably take
up my winter Quarters.'
S S
"That is a picture from the be
ginning of the oldest city in the
state of Washington. Fort Walla
Walla (of the Hudaon's Bay com
pany) was begun in 1818, and
later Wallula grew up at the same
place which might cause a dis
pute on this point. But the life
of Vancouver haa been continuous
from 1825 to the present time,
and la fairly entitled to the honor
of being known as the common
wealth's oldest settlement. (Fort
Walla Walla of the United States
Army and the city of Walla Walla,
Wash., were not ever in any way
connected with the Fort Walla
Walla ot the Hudson's Bay com
pany, or the Wallula that came
later.)
"James Keith, the predecessor
ot McLoughlln on the Columbia
river, when asked by the directors
of the Northwest Company It he
could not raise food for his men,
replied that the country WAS NOT
AGRICULTURAL, and food would
have to be transported over, the
(Rocky) .mountains or by ship
around Cape Horn. - '
"This ridiculous Idea was
promptly abandoned under ; the
new regime. (The Hadson's Bay
company had taken over the
Northwest Company.) Fields were
cultivated, a gristmill and a saw
mill were built, and at the end
of the first decade thousands of
bcshela of grain were produced.
There were hundreds of cattle,
horses, sheep, goats and hogs.1
"Not only could Dr. McLough
lln entertained hla guests at a
bountifully supplied table In the
'Hall' at Vancouver, but food was
supplied for hunting and trading
parties, and an occasional ship
ment ot. flour and grain was made
to distant Islands or . to the Rus
sian-American settlements. . . .:lt
became evident that a post was
needed on Paget Sound. In the
spring of 1832, Archibald -McDon
