7eallh Conscripted
When the boys came back home in 1919
after the armistice, broke and jobless, and
looked over the list of war-made millionaires,
they vowed that if war camejagain they would
see to it that wealth was conscripted as well
as fighting men. War has come again to all
Intents and purposes. Some men are drilling
and others are making munitions
of war. What happened to the conscription-of- mitted the information was an alien, a citizen
wealth Idea?
Except in a few isolated cases like the
Kearny ' shipyard and temporarily the North
American-Aviation plant, industry has not been
conscription in the sense of an actual taking
over by the government It is hardly necessary
to remark again that in view of the communist
example in Russia and the failure of all-out
socialism to succeed in the absence of totalitar-,
ianism, no sensible person now wants that
(But wealth well, if you don't think it
hasvbeen conscripted, take a look at the stock
market quotations. The New York Herald
Tribune's composite stock market index stood
at 101.18 on August 31, 1939, the day before
war broke out . On August 31, 1941, it stood
at 101.12. The investing public doesn't consider
industrial and utility stocks any more valuable
now than it did then.
1 Why not? Let's take a specific example
one of the big chain department store-mail
order firms. Except in a minpr way at a
middleman it has had no defense contracts,
but it has participated in the general expansion
of retail trade. In the first half of 1940 it
sold 304 million dollars worth of merchandise;
in the first half of 1941 it sold 393 million
dollars worth.
Nice going. But what do its stockholders

pension fund were 35 million dollars as com
pared to 21 million. But federal income and
' excess profits taxes are figured at around 18
million. Employes' pension fund contributions
were just about doubled. So the profit to be
divided among stockholders is less than 13
million which is less than ,3 per cent of the
gross in comparison to more than 15 million
for the first half of 1940. So this company's
stocks are quoted at 72, as compared -to 79
a year ago. .
Wealth is being conscripted in the orderly
manner which respects its integrity but doesn't
insure its survival which is just about parallel
to the case of the conscripted soldier. But by
the way, to what extent do we have conscription
of , labor's income? We'll know the answer
better when the tax bill reaches its final form.
Split the Season
.- For all that moaning was the principal
mode of expression of loyal baseball fans in
, Salem and vicinity throughout the greater part
of the season just closed, our Senators wound
up their campaign only six games "in the red."
If only three more of those grippingly close
contests and they were many had gone the
other way, the Salem team would have broken
even. As it turned out it, finished fourth, one
run higher than the previous year.
Salem has successfully supported organized
baseball through a second season, after the
novelty of the thing has worn off, and the
future of this local "industry" in which George
E. Waters pioneered seems assured. . And as
" for-tbe moaning, we would be the last to
condemn it for is it not typical also of Flat
bush, the perennial though querulous loyalty
of whose diamond fanatics seems in a fair
way to be rewarded this year? When fans
moan, their hearts are with the community and
. Its ball team. N '
Salem fans loyalty was not misplaced.
Taking advantage of the sports editor's ab
sence on vacation, may we digress at this point
to pay tribute to. the all-fpr-one team "spirit
the "old college try," the fine sportsmanship
displayed all tracing back to the canny and
v wholesome leadership of "Skipper" Griffiths
sand far transcending mere pay envelope con
siderations. , v ' There will be talk of revising the Western
f International league lineup for 1942 and the
talk may solidify into action. Of its nature,
prediction at this time is vain. There is, how
ever,, a change in its program which would
seeem advisable because of certain peculiar
problems its various clubs encounter.
At the start of each season some of the
teams are' makeshifts, while they await ' the
release of players who receive tryout with
Coast League clubs. After weak spots are
' strengthened,' , the clubs relative potentialities
are revisedbut those which got off to a poor
start are thereafter handicapped by the "games
lost" totals amassed early.
The halfway point in the 1941 season was
reached about July 8. At that time the Senator
had won but 26 games and lost 38. They started
the last half with a pretty fair
One more good hitter in the
would have been a great ball
to WI league standards. But - they started it
also with a 12-game deficit
Now if the season had been split and
each team had started with a fresh slate,,
what would have been the outcome? No one
Snay sayi the inspiration of a fresh start might
have changed the picture entirely but it could
hardly have harmed the second division clubs.
But as the games went Salem with a clean
slate in mid-season would have finished second
behind Spokane,' with 37 victories and 31 de
feats for a 5.44 percentage. Vancouver, Yakima,
Tacoma and Wenatchee would have f -Mowed in

tjous. - .'.--

Bomb Sight Plans Stolen
Except that it had to come out in order
that the guilty persons might be convicted of
espionage, the American public might not have
been told that full details of the Norden bomb
sight, supposedly one of the deepest of United
States defense secrets, were handed over to the
Germans as long ago as 1938.
and engines
The man now
of Germany, at
quently had the effrontery to take the oath
necessary to United States naturalization and
kept right on supplying details of the bomb
sight's construction and operation to the nazis,
if accusations made at the espionage trial in
New York are correct
As for the spy, he was a loyal nazi doing
his duty as he saw it He took his chances
and it appears that he will pay the penalty,
severe though less severe than it would have
been if the two nations were formally at war.'
But the American public, having been told
so much, deserve also to be told how it hap
pened that a German citizen was employed in
the plant to which the government entrusted
manufacture of the bomb sight, and why any
employe, particularly an alien; was permitted
to acquire such complete information about it
If such a condition existed, what was "secret"
about it? We confidently expect to read, as the
trial progresses, of other such instances of
carelessness and laxness.
After handing Salem a sour and grudging
compliment for its aidto bean growers in the
more southerly sections of Marion county, the
Woodburn Independent observes that growers
in its vicinity were so fortunate as not to need
such help, which couldn't be expert. The rea
son, the newspaper opines, is that people around
Woodburn are "good pickers." That skill ex
tends, we presume, to the matrimonially-inclined
young people of the vicinity.

efforts to readjust his line for
the winter.
'Hitler seems trying to dig
in considerably back of his
furthermost point of advance
in the center. He may give up
Smolensk, thus clearly aban
doning any hope of reaching
Moscow this winter.
Gomel also is likely to be
released. These two points Jut
deeply into the Russian lines
but probably have been too
thinly stretched to warrant
their retention. .
Hitler's aspirations in the
north seem - to have been limited to the capture of
Leningrad. Little further 'activity north and east
of that city Is anticipated here.
The strongest nazi effort is supposed to con
tinue to the Ukraine, where the line (they hope)
may be extended over to the Donat river. This
is flat country suited to mechanized warfare in
winter weather. If the Germans can reach a point
running somewhat east of Kiev, southeast to the
Upper Donat and from there down the river to
the Black Sea they cannot expect more. This
would leave them short of the valued Caucasus
oil fields where the British are planning to move
in to maintain a line with the Reds. '-
All these new elements of the situation of
course may not be maintained. In the current type
of warfare military authorities have suffered heav
ily in attempting to evaluate the prospects properly
from day to day. Yet they clearly suggest a sharp
alteration of the most important aspects.
Where does it leave Hitler? As far as most
military advisers here can see, he may merely be
stopped for winter. The Reds appear to be in no
military condition to launch an offensive campaign.
They have merely shown so far that they have
developed a successful defense against the blitz,
the goblet type of defense, which does not attempt
to block mechanized thrusts but draws them in
and absorbs them. Invasion of Germany is there
fore not considered possible.
No one here seems to think the altered situ
ation forecasts an early end of the war. At least
no government authority is making any prepara
tions in that expectation.
The British meanwhile are preparing for heavy
action in Libya within 30 days. Ninety percent
of our lease-lend materials the past few months
has been going into that area. With Hitler over
committed in Russia, the British have an excellent
chance of driving the Italians and Germans out ''
of northern Africa.

SPRAGUE AND SNELL
Charles Sprague, capable gov
ernor of Oregon, has announced
that he will be a candidate to
succeed himself in that office.
Earl Enell, capable secretary ot
state, may run against Sprague
In the primaries, if "trial bal
loon" stories in Portland news
papers may be credited.
Earl Snell as yet has made no
definite announcement as to
gubernatorial candidacy, so it
may be premature to comment
on the situation. As a friend and
supporter of both Governor
Sprague iand Secretary Snell,
however,! this newspaper be
lieves that Snell would be mak
ing a serious mistake if he were
to decide on a gubernatorial
campaign.
Earl Snell, whose home is at
Arlington, is a "natural" as the
republican candidate for repre
sentative in congress from the
second congressional . district.
The present democratic incum
bent, Walter Pierce, has an
nounced that he will be a can
didate for reelection. Pierce,
though agile at 80, has reached
the age; when he should give
way to a younger man. Earl
Snell is the man who could de
feat this veteran campaigner,
and make Oregon 100 per cent
republican.
Let's look at the situation
from another angle that of
party politics. Oregon normally
is a republican state. Along
with other republican states,
Oregon slipped a bit when the
new deal was in its hey-day.
When the "awakening" came,
however, Oregon speedily got
back into the republican column
with but one exception. Walter
Pierce, 100 per cent new dealer,
continued to win in the second
congressional district
We may be wrong at least
we hope so but we attribute
Pierce's victories more to his
ability as a campaigner than to
any love for the new deal on
the part of second district vot
ers. Also it must be admitted
that we have not had a really
strong republican candidate in
opposition to Pierce.
When General Martin, a dem
ocrat, was governor of Oregon
The Chronicle ignored party
lines and supported this doughty
warrior. He was honest, fear
less and a good governor. His
very fearlessness made political
enemies, however. Certain
. - groups in the democratic party
set out to "get Governor Mar
tin. , .
Oregon republicans and con
servative . democrats as well
were fearful of what might hap-
pen. The forces of radicalism
and unrest were sweeping the
country. ,- Oregon, as well as
. other states, had been infected
by this deadly virus. Obviously
it was imperative that a strong
republican candidate should be
. named. ; At that time, due to mi
nority registration in the demo
cratic party, it looked as though

mies might succeed in defeating
him at the primaries.
Yet the prospect remained that
if General Martin were the
democratic nominee, he might
defeat any candidate, the repub
licans might name. That would
mean political suicide for the
unfortunate republican. ! And
make no mistake about it, Gen
eral Martin would have t re
ceived many republican votes in
a general election. His record
was such that he had the confi
dence of important groups of re
publican voters.
Who would take the chance,
and go on the altar of political
sacrifice? One prominent re
publican after another declined
the "honor" with thanks. An
other year, maybe, but NOT
NOW! !
Charles Sprague, publisher of
the Salem Statesman, was ap
proached. He refused. He was
not a politician. He had a news
paper to i look after. Finally,
when it was explained that it
was imperative that someone of
prominence stick out his "po
litical neck," Sprague reluctant
ly consented to become a candi
date. He was doing this because
of party loyalty; not because he
expected to win. For it must be
remembered, now that one
views the situation in retrospect,
that many of the political "ex
perts" were eexpecting Martin
to get the democratic nomina
tion, and be reelected.
The date of primary election
rolled around. When the re
turns had been counted it was
discovered that General Martin's
political enemies had made good
their threat Registrations had
been changed, in many in
stances, to accomplish just this
purpose.

had nominated a republican who
had all the qualifications needed
to make a good governor. Now
it was the turn of the conserva
tive democrats to switch their
support They did,' and Charles
Sprague the man who risked
political annihilation to serve his
party -was swept into office by
a substantial majority. He
was elected both by republicans
and democrats who had the wel
fare of their state at heart, and
he has been a "darned fine gov-.
. ernor." Even supporters of Earl
Snell will concede this fact and

her shoulders straightened..
Miss Lucia Sims, the head li

room. Miss Lucia was a person .
of minute proportions,; with lilacs
in her eyes, frustrated romance
in her heart, and & rigid " sense
of duty. But she was kind, very
kind.
She took Jane's reluctant hand .
in both of hers. "We had a
meeting of the Board yesterday,
my dear," she said. "I tele
phoned your mother. Didn't she
tell you?" ,
."No. Mother didnt know I
was coming here today." Jane
drew her hand away; standing
tall and rigid.

words filtered' vaguely Into

No indeed, she was not being
dismissed. In fact, despite the
lack of funds, she would receive
the customary two; weeks' full
pay, and, considering her dear
mother and all, Jane could take
long vacation, on half pay,
until such time as well, the
Board felt it wise for her to re
sume work.
Miss Lucia looked up at that
set young face. "Don't take it

Broadway "big shot? had .him
fired from Slagan's Sport Shop,
David Farland deliberately
started- in on double scotches.
For a lad who only went oa
occasional binges, he made a
complete job out of getting
drunk. ;
But slow fires burned back to
the murder of Carlie Breanu.

yes this time; so confident In
his job. How could he guess
what his encounter with f beau

woman, Carlie Breanu, would
be found stabbed to death in the
rumble seat of Jane Rider's car,
when they finally reached the
Rider farmhouse?
