War Anniversary
Whereas, the imperial German government
has committed acts of war against the govern
ment and the people of the United States of
: America, therefore be it
Resolved, By the senate and house of repre
sentatives of the United States of America in con
gress assembled, that the state of war between
the United States and the imperial German gov
ernment which has thus been thrust upon the
United States is hereby formally declared; and
that the president be and he is hereby author
ized and directed to employ the entire naval and
military forces of the United States and the re
sources of the government to carry on war against
the imperial German government; and to bring
the conflict to a successful termination, all re-
' sources of the country are hereby pledged by the
j congress of the United States.
It was at 3 o'clock in the morning of April
! 6, 1917, just 24 years ago, that the house of rep
; resentatives passed the above simple resolution.
The senate having previously approved it on the
night of April 4, the nation was at war.
President Wilson had on March 22 sum
; moned congress into special session on April 2,
i at which time he delivered his famous "war
j speech." Senator LaFollette the elder blocked
j consideration of the resolution the following day.
; Prior to the vote, the senate debated for 13
: hours; house members orated for 17 hours,
; though pacifist opposition was a mere gesture.
: Vote in the senate was 82 to 6; in the house
373 to 50.
Physically the nation was ill prepared for
war. In the regular army there were about
110,000 trained men; in the national guard pos
sibly 140,000. Company M of Salem had been
in active service on the Mexican border the
previous summer, but early in 1917 its personnel
had dwindled to less than 40 and there was a
r threat that it might be taken from Salem and
given to Pendleton. The nation could not, at
the moment, muster more than a quarter mil
lion men; and the navy was not much better.
But if the nation was poorly prepared
j physically, even in comparison to the present
i situation, it had been thoroughly prepared
j' psychologically. On top of the indignation
j which flared in 1915 over the Lusitania dis
j aster which cost 124 American lives and six
other sinkings which brought the total Ameri
can victims of the U-boats tyj 158 indignation
which simmered but never died out a series
of events early in 1917 served to heighten the
I war fever. Except for the conciliatory attitude
of William Jennings Bryan while secretary of
! state, it might have reached the bursting point
I earlier.
Desperate Germany's announcement of
"unrestricted submarine warfare" on January
31 started the ball rolling. Diplomatic rela
tions were broken off February 3 but the na
tion waited for an "overt act" which did not
come until Fphruarv 2(1 whn th RriticH liner
Laconia was torpedoed. Three of about 20
Americans aboard lost their lives. One Ameri
can had died when the French steamer Athos
went down on the 24th, but the Athos was
carrying French Senegalese troops. Seven
American seamen went down with the Standard
Oil tanker Healdton on March 22, the day that
Wilson summoned congress. Three other
American ships were reported torpedoed though
sailing homeward in ballast, without loss of
life.
I But the lid had really blown off February
28 when the kaiser's alleged "plot" for Mexican
cooperation, which was said to involve restora
tion of Texas, New Mexico and Arizona to
Mexico, was disclosed. That Mexico had ac
cepted the proffer was only faintly hinted. The
I fantastic story included intimations that Japan,
then an ally of Britain and France, might be
induced to switch sides and invade the United
States through Mexico! That Germans were
plotting in Mexico is doubtless true; that it
really was a serious threat to American security,
few will now believe. But the carefully-timed
disclosure ended all doubt of this nation's course.
The drums of patriotism resounded.
"Patriotic week" was observed in Oregon at
the proclamation of Governor Withycombe,
starting March 25. On Wednesday night close
to 3000 persons crowded into the Salem armory
for a series of addresses, the highlight being
that of Justice Wallace McCamant, who pleaded
that "the safety of the world depends on vest
ing in the people of Germany the power that is
now vested in the German autocracy." Bands
played and resolutions were adopted and Com
pany M, now recruited to a strength of more
than 100, paraded before the assemblage. Ten
thousand turned out when the guard unit en
trained Friday morning for Vancouver Barracks,
not to return as a unit until the war was over.
There were patriotic sermons in the churches
and patriotic addresses In all the schools. -
Similar scenes were being enacted through
out the country; Madison Square Garden was
jammed for a rally at which President Wilson
was UFgcd to "strike hard and effectively" and
resolutions bluntly demanding a war declara
tion were passed.
Sentiment was not unanimous; a Salem
woman submitted a letter for publication in
The Statesman which was headed "Proud to
be a Mollycoddle." Thousands of pacifists
swarmed into Washington, DC, and one engaged
in fisticuffs with Senator Lodge. A lot of people
were looking out for number one; a nation
wide . railway strike had just narrowly been
averted. . -
But our point is that war fever was ramp
ant; those who opposed it were shouted down,
branded disloyal, sometimes thrown nr jail.
Oregon's Senator Lane was almost an outcast
for voting against the war resolution. The war
cry drowned out all other sounds throughout
the land. J - ;
' People are saying that all of America's wars
sn in April, xnejnauon rnayhe -physically, on the National Safety council's honor roll also
the nation is not psychologically ready. Bar
ring developments; this April will pass with
out a commitment to fight. By the. garpp token,
barring tremendous developments of another
sort, the nation will be up to its neck in a
"shooting war" before another April rolls
around. Against the irresistible onward sweep
of war fever, precedent hasn't a chance.

Diverted Cargo
A certain amount of interest attaches to
the foundering of a Russian vessel on thife treach
erous sands of Peacock Spit at the mouth of the
Columbia which transcends the custoijaary at
tention paid to ships which-go down! at that
dangerous spot.
The ship, the Vazlav Vorovsky, went down
with a cargo of lathes, oil rags, oil drilling ma
chinery and lard; when she foundered she
was about to bid the coast of North America
adieu or its Russian counterpart and sail
across the Pacific to Vladivostok. Then, into
Russian hands, she was to deliver her lard and
her lathes, her oil rags and her oil well ma
chinery. But where the cargo was to go then is not
for the eyes of men uninitiated into the mys
teries of the peoples' state. One may believe
that the lathes and the oil rags wer for the
great socialized factories of Moscow and Peters-'
burg, where the toiling proletarians giie them
selves up to an inhuman speed-up system. One
may believe that the oil drilling machuiery was
to go to Baku and the Caucausian oil fields.
But with equal pertinency, one may believe
that the lathes and the rags and the lard, which
may be most important of all, were to be placed
on a Trans-Siberian express train at Vladivo
stok, were to be drawn across the Soviet Union,
and were to emerge in East Prussia, thence to be
distributed to German factories and Rumanian
oil wells. I
There is no telling. But one may 'be quite
certain that the reports that the Krjemlin is
willing to give all possible material aid to the
small Balkan states, fighting with Britain is
no guarantee that he will not, with his left hand,
slide similar material aid along the board to
Germany. j
The problem, indeed, is not one merely of
trade with Russia. Two weeks ago I the last
Japanese ship left San Francisco harbor with
a cargo of lead enough to make 50,000,000
rounds of machine gun bullets for the wounds,
of China, or of . . .? More recently even than,
that it has been disclosed that 15,000,000 gallons
of oil have been shipped from San Francisco
alone aboard tankers of the Japanese 1 imperial
navy, and as much as eight times that amount,
from other California oil ports. That! such oil
will be used in the attack on the same China
which the RFC has recently refinanced to the
extent of $100,000,000 is of course too obvious
to mention: Nor does the point need 1 laboring
that 150,000,000 gallons of fuel oil would be a
splendid little treasure-trove in case the long
fabled Japanese drive to the south got under
way, or in case the Japanese and American
fleets were to meet some fine day. It would be
more than merely ironic to see one's enemy
battleships maneuvering on on's own oil: it
would be tragic.
James Young, Tokyo correspondent for 13
years for an American news service, said in
Oregon last week that continued sale of oil to
Japan was mere pussyfooting, that Japan is
much more afraid of America than certain state
department Americans are inclined to think.
The comment has the mark of veracity.
But even if it were not so, arming one's
potential enemies in Asia or in GenjMuiy, on
the eve of possible battle, is hardly an action
marxea by intelligence or penetration. It
should have been stopped months ago1; it cer
tainly should be stopped now.

This writer believes that among

The lower Astor fort, that
winter and spring of 1812-13,
also sent large supplies of meat,
and perhaps also beaver skins,

also some salmon. The two

crime against the whole popula

Editorial
Comments
Economics
Suspicion we have been harboring since
1933, that the economics textbooks were com
pletely rewritten shortly after 1929, Was con
firmed by Prof. William C. Jones in a talk at
the Realty board luncheon on Friday. Or more
precisely, the combination of conditions which
made the old-style "classical economics ap
plicable, has ceased to exist. j
The question persists however, as to who
rewrote the textbooks; economists retaining to
a great extent the objective, scientific view
point, or the new dealers? j
Granting that the economists, professional
and practical, have learned much in little more
than a decade, it is not yet clear that the devices
whereby the economics system was counted upon
to cure itself would have worked if the patient
hadn't been dosed with half a dozenj types of
medicine; or that, if his suffering was unbear
able, a mere "pain-killer" would not have suf
ficed, j
It is too late to find out now; the medicines
didn't work anyway, but a different set of
doctors is curing him temporarily witli a leach.
On one point however we are fairly posi
tive. Though economic theory may have been
revised, and perhaps necessarily, there has been
no radical change in the broad principles of
bookkeeping.
A former communist official testifies that
party members commit perjury as a matter of
policy. Presumably this ex-communist has re
formed, but- it does sort of bring up! that old
schoolroom question about reliability of the
statement that "all men are liars." t
From Other Papers
WINE BILL.
Indicative of what attitude its
publisher, Governor Sprague,
may be expected to take on the
wine measure which passed the
legislature and is now on his
desk awaiting action, is an edi
torial in the Statesman under
the heading "Berries. The gov
ernor and the Statesman have
both shown unusual courage in
opposing the group which has
insisted upon this bill. Threats
of recall have been made, by a
number of Marion county papers
seeking to curry favor of berry
growers of that section who
want this bill adopted. ' j
Showing a keen insight into
the matter the Statesman points
out the futility of trying to pro
duce prosperity for berry grow
ers through market stimulation
in giving a non-competitive field
field for wine used for Oregon
berries. Admitting that this
might aid Oregon growers tem
porarily, the Statesman points
to the outcome when after sim
ilar claims were made for hop
growers, the sale of beer did not
produce continued prosperity '
but resulted in increased plant
ing of hops and resulting low
ered prices with government
marketing agreements ; follow
In. !
In conclusion the Statesman
says, "Assuming for the sake of
argument that wine-by-the
drink would enable berry grow
ers -to sell a great deal more of
their product this year, the in
scription list to start a fund to
make the beginnings of the foun
dation for a school for white
children in the far away Oregon
Country. The amount was $650,
Including $20 pledged by Shel
don Dibble, the only outside pas
senger, who was on his way to
join the American Board (Con
gregational, Dutch Reformed
and Presbyterian) forces in their
mission on those islands of the
Pacific, started during 1820. Dib
ble was a member of the Con
gregational church. i
Most of the pledged money
was to come from the slender
salaries of members of the de
voted company engaged to found
a Christian civilization, and, in
cidentally, an American govern
ment. W
Nothing definite was done to
ward carrying out the project
-that was started at sea on the
Lausanne until January 17, 1842,
when a meeting was held at the
Mission House on the site of Sa
lem which was also the resi
dence of Jason Lee and wife and
of three other missionary fami
lies. At that gathering a com
mittee was appointed to arrange
for an adjourned meeting at the
"old" mission 10 miles by water
below, on February 1, 1842,
where, after discussion, the pro
posed school was named the
Oregon Institute, and a board of
directors of nine members was
chosen, with Jason Lee as its
chairman; empowered to choose
a committee on location, one to
raise the necessary funds, an
other to prepare bylaws, etc.
The committee on location
chose for the site of the school
building of the Oregon Institute
the exact spot where had stood
the Astor fort, on what had
come to be and is still known as
Wallace Prairie, after William
Wallace, one of the Astor clerks
who located the upper Willam
ette fort there.
W. H. Gray, who had left the
Whitman mission east of the
Cascades and come to the Wil
lamette valley, was employed to
superintend the erection of the
building which was Intended to
be used by the Oregon Institute,
beginning in 1842. The Gray
family lived there while the
work of construction proceeded.
There was drilled the first mi
litia company in Oregon. There
was written the first book com
posed in Oregon, by S. W. Moss,
The Prairie Flower." There
Nardssa Whitman visited with
.the Gray family for weeks, in
the winter of 1842-43, while Dr,
Whitman made his famous win
ter trip in the East. There wi
held the first of the "wolfi
meetings. Just north of that spot
a half mile or so lived Baptist
DeLoar and family, the firs!
white' settlers on the land in the
Oregon Country. He was French
his wife Indian, their childrei
half caste; but the sons fough
in all the Oregon Indian wars
on the side of the whites.
But Jason Lee left the Ore
gon Country at the end of 1843L
never to return alive, and died
March 12, 1845, and the Methoj
dist mission was dissolved, and
its property offered for sale.
This enabled the Oregon In
stitute's trustees to buy the
abandoned mission manual la
bor school building, that had
cost $10,000, for $4000.

AS AMENDED
To the Editor:
Your editorial with reference
to HB 336 is apparently based
on the presumption that the bill
was enacted as introduced (by
request) through the joint comj
mittee on ways and means. That
is not the case. When this bijl
was reported in for passage t
was reported with amendments
that substituted $40 for $30 as
it is in the present law. j
The printed bill as amended
also deleted all of section 12
618 except the following: "Afl
.moneys received as reimburse
ment for old age assistance
grants made under the provi
sions of this act shall be paid to
the United States, the state f
Oregon, and the counties of the
state of Oregon as their interests
may appear." The portion delet
ed is that part of the law which
has heretofore given the state
rigni iq reunourse resell, so to
speak, out of the estate of
cipients of old age assistance
that it gives the state a prefer
red claim over all other
against the estate of the reci
pient upon . his death. By tblis
amendment to the printed, bill
the objective of SB .209, which
was introduced upon the request
of the Oregon Pension federa
tion, was attained. j
Among other measures passed
by the legislature which have? a
bearing on "pensions'' was sen
ate joint Memorial No. 1 by
which the legislature asked the
president of the United States
and specifically . congressmen
Mott, Angell and Pierce and sen
ators McNary and Holman to co

The Weivs
By PAUL MALLON
-: rul Mali -
WASHINGTON, April 5 The
first authoritative demand for
an American declaration of war
has come gen
erally unno
ticed,, from the
officially fla-
vored Army
and Navy Reg
ister. This pri
vately owned
.trade -. " publica
tion of the
; fighting serv
ices always re
flects some
part of the of
ficial military
mind and: this
time Is no -exception.
Specifically it urges that green
American troops f can be trained
as well in Singapore, Palestine,
Egypt and Ireland as in
Georgia" and other southern
states, thus relieving British
troops from these empire areas
for the fighting front. The
American determination not to
fight in Eurppe it regards as a
foolish "product of the pacifist
ridden 1920's," and claims the
- idea-no longer holds a majority.
The front it .sees and wants !
to . develop eventually is an
Anglo-Greco-American line' in ;
the Balkans, a protective line to :
cover the southeastern granaries ;
and oil sources from Hitler and '
a short route to Berlin.
A number of American mili
tary minds have seen for months
the prospect that the final allied
offensive (with probably United
States participation) would have
to be organized from the south,
possibly in Africa. Only such
open territory offers an oppor
tunity for organizing powerful
bases. Frontal attacks upon the!
German held northern European
coast are regarded as just as
difficult from a military stand
point as invasion of England has -proved
to be to Hitler.
This does not mean that either
Mr. Roosevelt or the general
staff (they will decide what is
to be done) shares this view
point yet. It does; mean a large
number of leading army officers
have privately believed it prac- ;
tical and now the officially-flavored
semi-official publication
is openly advocating the course. '
Seme news ef outstanding
importance may develop in
the north Atlantic any time
after Sunday.
Most military authorities
doubt the ability of the British
to put a strong foot forward in
the Balkans. General Wavell
had only 250,000 men at the
peak of his Libyan campaign.
; Possibly 100,000 British troops
now are in Crete 'and Greece
' (50,000 of these came from Wa
vell's , army), around 100,000
. are still in North Africa strung
out - between Cairo and Libya,
and about 200,000 troops includ
ing natives are rounding up the
Italians in Eritrea. The roundup,
if direct advances are fulfilled,
' will require no more than two
- . a . a, i m. -
weeas me most, a one, ex
cepting natives, - will then be
available for Balkan work.
But Wavell will have to main-
tain a line behind Bengasi In
- North Africa against the Ger-
man panzer force there, now re
ported to contain five to eight
armored divisions minus their
heavy equipment (60,000 to
98,000 men).
The holding of the Balkans,
therefore, rests heavily upon
Yugoslavia. The question there
; is whether the Germans will be
. met by an armed mob or a really
cool efficient army. -
There are supposed to be
three old Roman roads from the
Bulgarian border across Yugo- '
i slavia to Albania. , These have
been maintained ' by the Yugo
1 slavs but the rescue of Mussolini
could theoretically be effected
most quickly by panzer invasion
r down these three direct routes.
Many la : British military lead
: er has seen,: since rthe fall of
France,; that the road up; through
i the Balkans is the shortest way
to Germany. But they, like the,
American devotees nf that
course, have seen it as some
thing to be done a year or two
from now. At present they are
not well prepared for it.
In great secrecy, some sur
prising official estimates of pilot
losses by both British and Ger-
- mans have reached congres-.
sional authorities. While the
precise information is of a mili
tary nature, it shows fatalities
are far more than outsiders have
suspected. Not only the combat
casualties but the accident toll
of the best flyers is reaching
the critical point.

"Explanation! snarled Prince
Max. "There is your explanation,
you traitorous swine!"
Klof f er"s gaze followed to
where the other was pointing. His
eyes fell upon that utterly, dread
ful face of the man standing be
hind the door.
"Erich Stutz," he breathed.
"Jawohl, StuU," snarled the
General. " A rogue but less so
than you ... a Jew!"
Meredith watched this scene in
amazement. He had no means of
gauging its true import, but he
made a guess at it when he
caught that' word Jude.
Kloffer, though obviously sha
ken, stood his ground. "Are you i
going to take the word of a

tell you what he is." .

Weimar. "Save your breath."
"But he is a renegade . . a po

pockets at the expense of the

, The accused spy stood silent
while the General went through
the papers that had been taken
from Kloffer. There was nothing
there (of that Kloffer was con
vinced) that would support the
charge against him, and he might
yet bluff his way out of this to
tally unlooked-for situation. Yet
what was the object? He had ;
nothing to live for now, save the
glutting of his vengeance and
that would be taken care of even
were they to shoot him out of
hand. He was glad he had taken
that last precaution.

corrected Kloffer. "And you will
