Angary
The United States exercised the right of
angary Sunday when it seized vessels of Ger
many, Italy and Denmark lying peaceably in
American harbors. What that right is can best
be stated in the words of the Encyclopedia Brit
annica :
Angary is the name given to the right of a
belligerent to seize and apply for the purposes
of war (or to prevent the enemy from doing so)
any kind of property on belligerent territory,
including that which may belong, to subjects or
citizens of a neutral state. . . . The articles of The
Hague convention of 1899 seem to sanction the
right of angary against neutral property, while
limiting it as against both belligerent and neutral
property. It may be considered, however, that the
' right to use implies as wide a range of contingen
cies as the "necessities of war" can be made to
cover.
) Even this exposition requires a certain
amount of analysis. The right, it should be
noted at the outset, appertains to a belligerent
only a nation already engaged in war against
another nation or nations. Not only that, but
the right of angary applies only on belligerent
territory and a ship was seized in Portland, in
the quiet water of the Willamette last Sunday
morning. .
Moreover, The Hague convention sanctions
the right of seizure of foreign vessels against
neutral property by a belligerent government;
yet the Leme, boarded in Portland, was the
property of a belligerent lying . in nominally
neutral waters. If the United States were actu
ally belligerent, as use of the principle of angary
would seem to imply, the actual transactionwas
nothing more than the seizure of a prize of war.
From another point of view, if the foreign ship
were itself a warship, as might be argued, it
would long since have been subject to intern
ment in the country. Something seems con
fused, badly confused.
Something is confused: the status of this
country in regard to the European war, a status
x which is changing weekly, yet which defies def
inition in ordinary terms of belligerency and
neutrality. This is true; yet the direction of
change is readily apparent, particularly on
analysis of acts such as the seizure of foreign
vessels in American waters.
There should be. in brief, no illusion but
that the seizure of German and Italian ships
lying in American harbors was the act of a belli
gerent, and that it may bring as a justifiable re
sponse from Germany and Italy a formal dec
laration of war. One is inclined to think, in
deed; .that, the only reason why such a declara
tion may not be made, or has not been made
earlier, is that it would be relatively meaning
less so long as neither of the axis powers was in
a position where it could come to grips in any
sense with the United States. Japan is another
matter, but no Japanese ships have been seized.
Weil, and so it is. The act is done, and the
Americans cannot be blamed if they move sud
denly in order to prevent the destruction by
their foreign crews of ships that are already
needed, in spite of the niceties of international
law, in carrying, supplies to Britain. This na
tion is already committed to the British cause
to an extent that makes a formal war declara
tion little more than a formality; evil as this
may be, its implications should be realized, and
" there should be no surprise when it takes sud
den form in acts such as this. ,
It is not, as the captain of the Leme said,
"inhuman," but it is not very nice, either.
Empires .
. Empires are breaking up. Several of the
bigger ones are doomed.
Reference is not to the political empires of
the old world, but to the holding company em
pires of the.new world's power industry.
New deal reforms are out of season in 1941
but the biggest one undertaken is just coming
Into fruition through operation of the "death
f sentence" clause in the utility holding company
act. Under this much-controverted provision
of I the law passed in 1935, utility systems are
required to limit themselves to geographically
integrated units and to simplify their corporate
structures in such manner that an operating
company will have over it not more than two
"decks" of the holding companies.
In carrying out these provisions the Se
- curities and Exchange commission has ordered
dissolution of United Light & Power company
and United American company, a system which
has five holding company "decks."- The com
pany is putting up no fight.
' Repercussions of this trend will reach Ore
gon early. Standard Gas & Electric, with which
Mountain States and Pacific Power & Light are
affiliated, is complying with the policy without
the necessity for an order. Electric Bond &
Share, of which Northwestern Electric is an af
filiate, is not itself involved to date but one
related holding company. National Power &
Light, appears to be taking the same course.
SEC also is preparing to break up three other
large systems: Commonwealth or Southern, En
gineers Public Service and United Gas Improve
ment. Orders for dissolution of still other em
pires are contemplated; somewhere down the
line the SEC will bump into a supreme court
test of the constitutionality of the "death
sentence", clause. ...
. There will be few mourners at the death
bed of the great power empires. The stench that
attended earlier demise-of the Insull empire has
settled upon those which survived. Their cor
porate structure is difficult if not impossible to
defend though-in fairness it should be said that
the system contributed in its heyday, to the
rapid advancement of electrification. One of the
principal items of justification, the existence
of intra-systeru service' companies performing
specialized' functions, is superseded by the de
velopment of : independent, professional com-
panies which perform, the same services for ,
firms with which they have no financial con
nection; If the holding company seem ed "a good
- idea at the . time" the" march' of events - has
sdimmed its usefulness. -. "

If Bonneville is charging more for power
than is necessary, the solution is a reduction in
its rates and not, as the McMinnville paper sug
gests, payments in lieu of the taxes which in
justice the municipal systems and PUDs Ought
to pay.
True, if private1 power companies continue
to be taxed on an ad valorem basis, Bonneville
ought to make payments in lieu of such 1 ixes
upon its power plant, the portion of the dam's
value allocated to power, and its transmission
lines. But if as the T-R suggests, Bonneville
were to make lieu payments so that municipal

Editorial Comments
From Other Papers
A correspondent asks us to tell how the nazi
government finances its war upon civilization.
The subject could easily fill a book. However,
some general observations may help. ;
In the first place, the nazi government operates
in pretty much a closed compartment. In that
compartment the people do what government tells
them to do, else they go to a concentration; camp
to be well beaten up regularly.
In effect, all the German people are working
for the government j The government takes the
products of their labor and gives them back rations
of food and clothing. 1 In other words, this means
that the entire German population is working! long
hours under an intense speedup, turning over most
of the-product to the government and keeping
only barely enough to eat and wear. So j long
as the) materials can be found in Germany j and
the conquered countries, this process can go on
unless, indeed, the people crack under the strain.
It was finance our inquirer asked about.1 This
; is a process that requires no stocks of real money.
Paper marks serve as counters or certificates to
show : the individual's j title to his or her share of
the rations and clothes. No financing is necessary,
in the sense that our correspondent probably1 had
in mind. This is a process, of course, that can con
tinue only in a closed compartment When the nazi
government, buys goods or material from Russia,
'it has to. finance those purchases with something
reaL-i For that it uses: a portion of the goods pro
duced by German labor.
This is, to all intents and purposes, a ; slave
system. Given your slaves and a territory capable
of producing the materials for them to work on, no
financing is needed, j '. j
To this picture has to be added another In
the overrun countries.! These have been and are
being systematically stripped of food, goods and
materials for the Germans in Germany. This is not
finance either; it is robbery. In addition, thejeon
t quered peoples are being compelled to work for
Germany, as slaves, for worse rations thanj the

Usually the county agent gives
the time and material as spray
ing time comes on. One spray
program for grapes gives the
first spray of Bordeaux mixture,
one pound to five: gallons, when
the new shoots are about six
inches long; the second spray,
using the same mixture but
adding Ya pound of arsenate of

blossoms fall, and thereafter
spraying each two weeks until
the middle of August using the
second spray mixture. Some
grape growers use the dusting
sulphur and some an all-purpose
spray or dust at two-week in

ginning as soon as new growth
has started.
S.B.R. Asks for a formula

Letters from Statesman
Readers
MORE ON SABBATH
To the Editor:
I noticed a letter in The
Statesman of March 29th, by a
Mr. Ernston, who was making
an effort to answer the letter of
a Mr. Emill Braxling of Falls
City, Oregon. I am pleased to
note that Mr. Ernston admits
that the command to keep the
Sabbath day holy cannot be
found in the new testament.
Since Mr. Ernston has admitted
' this failure to produce the said
scripture, what is the new tes
tament? The word, n-e-w, indi
cates that it is not old, and that
there is a testament which is
older. The word testament is de
fined to mean a will. , Then the
new will does not have the com
mand to keep the Sabbath day
holy. What does this new will
offer? Adoption, forgiveness of
sins and eternal life. But to en
joy the blessings of this will,
man Is not commanded to keep
the Sabbath day holy.
The Sabbath law was a nation
al law. Read Deut 5:1-5. The
nation of Israel was the only na
tion . that was commanded to
keep the Sabbath day holy, and
the only people to whom God
ever made it known. In Neh.
0:13-15 we read that God made
known to the Israelites at Mount
Horeb, which is Sinia, the holy
Sabbath. Had they been keep
ing a day for 2500 years and did
not know that it existed? No,
this would be absurd. Who is
under the new will, or subjects
under it? In the book of Mat
thew, chapter 28, verses 18, 19
we find that all nations are un- '
der the new will. Today we are
not subjects to a national law,,
but a universal law, which Is
the new testament.
: Mr, Emill Braxling did not set
aside a portion of God's word.
But God gave a new will when
the old will became of none ef
fect Since Mr. Ernston is for .
keeping the whole bible, or air
the words of God's word, will
he be so kind as to answer the
following questions? Do you of
fer animal " sacrifice? Do you
burn incense? And do you stone
to death those who do not keep
the Sabbath? Mr. Ernston says
that Jesus kept the Sabbath day. '
