Christmas in a World at War Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceedingly wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all -the coasts thereof, from two years and under, according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men. Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, In Rama was there a voice heard, lamenta tion, and weeping, and great mourning, Rach el weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they were not. Matt. 2. Herod the Great was, in the closing years of his life, insane. He caused to be put to death three of his own sons two of them, it appears, on false suspicion. To such a man in such a state of mind the massacre of the innocents, the in fants of mere commoners and peasants, doubt less was a trifling incident. Nor, in view of his , mental derangement, are we justified in judg- ing the times solely by this one act of whole sale, wanton bloodshed. But .Herod, like the other kings of the Jew ish people whose names the bible has made so familiar to us, viewed in the light of secular his tory was just a little fellow. He was a puppet of the Roman empire. This bloody episode occur red under the supposedly benign Pax Romana of Augustus. Neither Rome nor people of Pal estine seem to have made any effective protest. Human life, it may be said without fear of contradiction, was held cheaply in those days. Today, it may be said just as positively, human life is held cheaply in many portions of the world. But is it not more accurate to put it the oth er way? Is it not true that we deprecate the cheapness of life 2000 years ago and today, in the contrasting light of our own ideology which puts a high valuation upon life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? And upon what is that evaluation founded? Why do we say that the ancient rulers were wrong and that the beasts of Europe and Asia are wrong? Is it not because we deem life sa cred, God-given, and each individual no mat ter how lowly in man's sight, the equal of ev ery oiher in the sight of God? These ideas had indeed begun to find fee ble expression prior to the Christian ra. But the teaching of Him whose birthdays we-celebrate today irj ways grown traditional down through the centuries, was their first effective expression. The seeds He dropped did not all fall by the wayside to be devoured by fowls, nor upon stony ground, nor among thorns. few took root and grew. Their growth has be n slow and uncertain, their fruit sometimes nvs tisedr Yet in our way of life democracy, free ; dom, tolerance, equality, humanitarianism, hon orable dealing and good faith among men and nations these ideas have come nearest to their complete fruition even though the road to per fection still stretches endlessly ahead. But because men not outwardly religious, perhaps not even consciously religious, have contributed greatly to the development of this way of life, we sometimes fail or at any rate forget, to recognize the truth that Christianity is its foundation; that Christianity is at bottom the motivation of all those who today strive fur ther to perfect it. Today we find it necessary to fight for the protection of that way of life. Unless we fight, it is endangered here at home. War is not Christian. Killing is not Christian. Jesus spoke of peace and good will and universal brother hood. And so we are confused. But if this way of life is fundamentally Christian, then protect ing it is a Christian act. It is simpler to say that whatever course is right, is Christian. But because there is con fusion, we have tried to analyze the problem from a broader standpoint. Thanks to the faith lessness of our foes, we are united in our con scientious conviction that our present course is not only right, but the only possible course. And as our countrymen, and the unoffend ing Malay brothers whose guardians we have been for 40 years, share wounds and death on far away isles fighting for our and their com mon protection; and as we pause for a moment to realize that "greater love hath no man than this" it may be inspiring even on the birthday of the Prince of Peace to know that our fight is 1 ' a fight for peace and good will not only for our selves, but for 11 men who share those aspira 1 tions. Daylight Saving Senator Downey has the notion that simply by passing a resolution, congress can order the advancing of all clocks in the nation one hour to impose "daylight saving." He may be right if it's done in the name of national defense. But a prerequisite, we imagine, will have to be some general agreement that such a change is in the interest of defense. As far as we can recall, no one has ever suggested that any daylight could be saved in the dead of winter. It's true that for retail stores which do not use artificial light at all hours, an hour of lighting might be saved by turning the clocks ahead. But the community would merely be exchanging that saving for an expenditure of electricity to light each working person's home in the wee sma' hours of the morning. Well, anyway they look like wee sma' hours to the -workers on a morning newspaper, who don't particularly care because they can't save day light or anything else. The majority of Oregonians have always op posed daylight saving (because it imposes hard ships on our majority of citizens engaged in farming and allied industries. We see no rea son to adopt it now. One can't tell when a blackout may occur, hut frem where we sit, it looks as though an early evening blackout would be preferable to one early in the morn ing. News Behind The News By PAUL MALLON (Distributed by King Features Syndicate, Inc. Repro duction In whole or In part strictly prohibited.) WASHINGTON, Dec. 2 4. -All inner signs sug gest German army morale was high during the withdrawal in Russia. In the city of Klin, the re treating nazis left 3000 as a rear guard. They fought to the last man to cover the escape of their associates. Retreating in the face of the enemy is the most difficult of all military manem s. Rear guards and quantities of equip ment must be sacrificed whole sale. The main point is to keep order, and the Red reports of prisoners captured unfortun ately fail to justify the stories of nazi demoralization. . If the Germans establish a winter line from Leningrad down" to Kersk, Smolensk, Kharkov and Mariupol on the Black sea, they will be fairly well straight ened put on a much shorter front. This would rep resent a retreat averaging 100 miles in the north, 70 in the south. But the Finns may be sacrificed. They will be compelled to accept a separate peace, when the Reds reopen rail communication to Leningrad. f , Hitler customarily extricates himself from dis aster by daring new and greater offensives. In his speech, he suggested he had something like that' in mind. Invasion of "Britain now would fit into his es tablished pattern of madness. All inside evidence suggests it would be impossible. He cannot get con trol of the air (although he has spirited his air force away from the Russian front.) He would be limited by time which would require him to. complete the action before the Red campaign opens in March. Safer would be the now widely forecast march through Spain and Portugal to Africa. No one here believes he can save Rommel in Libya. Italy will be faced with an allied invasion in the spring un less he does something in the Mediterranean sphere. Marching through Spain would be easier than any other place he has tried lately. His objective there would be seizure of the French fleet and acquisition of sub bases in the At lantic and Mediterranean. He cannot hope to march on Dakar (as has been suggested), but with "the French fleet he could slip down the coast and try to take it . n Paul MaHon Uncle Sam (ta) Is Going to Give 'Em What They Asked for Bits for BreaEcifast By R. J. HENDRICKS The passing of John D. 12-25-41 McCully brings to mind memories of pioneer days in Salem and state of Oregon: e S When Ellen J. Chamberlin, who lives with her sister, Mrs. Charles Weller, at 150 West Lu ther street, Salem, heard of the passing of John D. McCully a week ago last Monday, Decem ber 15th, she phoned to this col umnist, wishing him to know and make note of some important facts concerning the life of her deceased friend and her pupil in bis boyhoood days. Miss Chamberlin, is one of the oldest living members of the fac ulty of Willamette University. The Salem Directory of 1874 gives, among the faculty of that institution, T. M. Gatch, presi dent and professor of ancient languages, and Ellen J. Cham berlin, teacher in academical department. S Willamette University, oldest institution of higher learning in the United States west of the Rockies, was founded and named the Oregon Institute on February 1, 1842. Classes were opened August 13, 1844, in the building that had been erected for the Indian manual, labor school of The Safety Valve Letters tram Statesman Readers the Jason Lee mission, beginning in 1840. The school was chartered, as Willamette University, by the Oregon territorial legislature, holding its sessions in basement rooms of that building, on Janu ary 13, 1853. (Note the lucky 13s.) s S The 1871 Salem Directory says: "The increasing popularity and patronage of the (Willamette) University impressed the trus tees with the necessity of erect ing a new building, as early as 1860 .. . which resulted in the circulation of a subscription by the .(financial) agent. Rev. A. F. Waller. ... A sufficient amount having been secured to Justify the commencement of building operations, the work was begun on the 4th of March, 1864, by digging an excavation for a foundation and basement. The work steadily progressed and on the 24th of July, 1864, the cor nerstone was laid; . . . Governor Gibbs (second chief executive of the state) delivered an address. . . . The stone is placed in the northeast corner of the building. The edifice is built of brick MADE ON THE PREMISES." So was visioned and so was1 started the present Waller Hall of Willamette University. But Fi nancial Agent A. F. Waller had to take up a good many collec . tions to get the funds for the finishing touches. And they were added not much too soon, for the "old university" building, the one which had been the mission manual labor school, was burned to the ground December 27, 1872. Miss Chamberlin remembers well the day when Waller Hall was first occupied for the hold ing of classes. It was in October, 1869. She thinks it was on the 24th. On that glorious occasion, the students came marching and singing from the "old university" to Waller Hall, at last finished, fitted and furnished for their classes. a "a S v With those singing students, two are well remembered by Miss Chamberlin. One was young John D. McCully, then in his 13th year, but outstanding in student activities, persistent in his studies, and showing all the marks of a gentleman. Miss Chamberlin recalls that he was chosen by the students to have charge of an entertainment in which he showed the attributes of natural leadership and made it a great success. She remem bers that with the singing stu dent body who on that day marched and sang triumphantly into the new Waller hall was the miss who is now Mrs. Valleda W. Ohmart, one of the oldest wom en, and one of the finest, in this section. She was then Valleda (Continued on Page 9) KSLM THTJHSDAT 1338 X. J0 Bis WShin. T AO News in Brief. 1:05 Riaa N Shine.

Consumer Credit Control Comment has been offered here in the past upon the regulation of consumer credit contem plated in a presidential order Issued early last August, Our attention has been called to the fact that certain types of business firms as well ' as Individuals dealing In consumer credit are required to register prior to December 31 in or der that they may be licensed to engage In this business in 1942. The licensing was automatic for the remainder of .1941. Officials of the Fed eral Reserve bank report that registration is somewhat short of completion and express con cern lest some of those required to do so, may. neglect this requirement and be unable to con tinue in business. Those required to register are persons or organizations engaged in the business, of mak ing instalment loans of $1500 or less, or instal ment sales of or instalment loans in any amount - secured by new or used automobiles; 'aircraft; power-driven boats or motors for such boits including, outboard motors; except those de signed for commercial use; motorcycles; and these articles if desjgned for domestic or house hold, use: mechanical refrigerators, washing I machines, ironeTS, suction dealers," cooking or heating stoves; or ranges, electric dUshwaahers, V air conditioners, sewing machines, radios, pho . nographs, musical instruments composed prin cipally of metals, pianos, electric organs, fur . riaces and heating plants, water heaters, water . pumps, plumbing fixturesv :: ventilating " fans, new household furniture, materials and servi ces in connection with repair, alteration or im- rrovement of real property. Anyone engaged ia Hitler's discard of Von Brauchitsch has been interpreted lightly. It would be bad policy to en courage optimism in the grim task ahead. Von Brauchitsch was a dose friend of Goering, and a bridge across the gap between the nazi party and the army. His going will be heralded by the storm-troopers as a hint of promotion and pay to come, but the army should be correspondingly dis heartened, v Well does everyone know that when Hitler reaches the point where he cannot go on, the army will be the one to take over. It will also be the one to inform him when victory has become impossi ble, and hand him the gun with which to' efface himself. Only through appreciation of these facts does Hitler's assumption of personal control over the . army seem td become understandable. It is custom ary for losing generals to get out. Technically i all that Von Brauchitsch's going would mean is the . loss of, the ablest tactician of the German anny, the genius best suited to handle the troops. The best field fighting brains were shuffled out by Hit ler, earlier and more quietly, when he dropped Generals Bock and Rumstedt, after their Russian failures. j J But the fact that Hitler, instead of choosing another general to head the army, selected himself, is the revealing aspect In my opinion he would not have dared offend the army, to that extent, had his own personal position not been precarious. He sim- ply gathered In the reins' for himself to meet an end ' that all can foresee for him. I think it foreshadows' the early end of Hitler. I must concede this opinion is. not "shared by the authorities here who believe Der ; Fuehrer is ' merely , hanging scapegoats and that he will be in .better shape than the Reds for the spring cam- paign. . , v CHRISTMAS GREETING (Acrostic) C radled in a manger lowly, H eaven sent the Christ-Child holy; 'R ound Him humble shepherds I n them Faith Eternal dwelt . .
