Tires and Retail Trade
Under the heading "That's Where Our Money
Goes" this department analyzed some months
ago census figures on retail trade showing that
farmers, passing up the old crossroads general
store, made the bulk of their purchases in the
nearest town; people from the smaller towns
had acquired the habit of shopping in the cities
of medium size, and people from those cities
made frequent trips for combined shopping and
entertainment purposes to the nearest metropo
lis. In recent years retail sales had decreased in
rural communities and increased in the large
cities, while the medium-sized towns had just
about held their own though the charter of
their retail trade had altered.
All this, the automobile had accomplished.
Now if you want to start an argument, the
quickest way is to assert that tire rationing will
put people back on their feet force them to
quit driving or that it will not. It doesn't make
much difference which side you take, you'll find
someone to take the contrary view. Best guess,
in our opinion, is something in between. Most
people will have tires on their cars and be
able to drive them but they won't drive them
unless it's necessary. This state of affairs will
continue as long as war needs monopolize the
greater part of the rubber supply, and that
apparently means longer than it will take to get
the synthetic rubber industry into full produc
tion. If that is the actual result it will amount,
after all, to something of a return to horse-and-buggy
conditions. Farmers won't visit towns
like Stayton and Mt. Angel quite so often; Stay
ton and Mt. Angel people won't be seen quite so
frequently on Salem's streets; Salem people
won't be dashing into Portland to see a road
show or ball game and do some heavy shopping
while they're there. f
People will buy things at the nearest place
where they can get them. While Salent will lose
some trade in staple goods which are available
In the smaller cities, it is our opinion that other
things being equal-meaning chiefly the gen
eral1 public's buying power Salem and other
cities similarly situated will gain as a result
of this state of affairs. Salem is the nearest
"point, for a great many Willamette valley resi
dents, where almost any conceivable type of
merchandise can be obtained. We'll be badly,
fooled if in the redistribution of retail buying
which results from reduced travel,! Salem
doesn't profit considerably. Other cities in this
vicinity also will gain; and so will the pur
chasers, who will discover that buying nearer
home is less costly, all factors considered. Port
land will be the loser.
;; Salem and the smaller communities may,
meanwhile, discover that it pays to j provide
entertainment and other attractions of the types
for which people have been in the habit of going
to the metropolis. Salem's professional base
ball team, for example, rather than being hurt
by the war, is likely to find its patronage in
creased by this stay-at-home trend. As far asa
I movies are concerned, the best are already be
ing brought here. - In general, community self
sufficiency will be encouraged so long as auto
mobile travel is discouraged by prevailing con
ditions. ' ;
Whispering Campaign !
i; "Pearl Harbor," everyone said, "united the
American people as nothing else could. They
will remain united. Nothing can divide them
until the war ends in victory."
It was foreseen that presently there would
be arguments over policy and procedure per
haps even heated arguments, but none that
could not be resolved by majority rule or sub
mission, strictly in the American pattern, to the
decisions made by those chosen to lead. That
ftase of the effort already is here.
Curiously,' furtively and with no discernible
supporting facts or incidents, another, type of
division has begun to make its appearance;
more insidious and more dangerous. Men and
women who are hard hit by the domestic revo
lution which entry into war has entailed, others
who merely are worried about domestic trends
and the course of the war, have been heard to
remark off-handedly that some group or insti
tution is to blame for "the fix we are in." Some
of them blame the national administration,
others blame "big business" but most often, as
far as we can observe, the onus is handed to a
group distinguished from the rest of us by
reason of race and religion. The same race
which has been persecuted all over the world
in past centuries when things went wrong; the
same race which has been most cruelly per
secuted in nazi Germany. j
. What this race 61 people has done to get the
United States into this "fix" is always rather
vague. You'll hear that they pushed us into
war, or that they were the appeasers and are
responsible for our unpreparedness; that they
sold scrap metal to our present enemy or that
they are responsible for the lend-lease activity
which turned our war 'materials over to Britain
and Russia.' We expect presently to hear that
they, and not the Japanese, bombed Pearl
Harbor. :-''?"'...; j
h A great many of the persons who are talking
in this wise have gotten the idea from! someone
else someone who is apparently vry busy
talking. The someone who ; is starting these
stories is well, we'll give you three guesses
but the first one is right. He is the same fellow
who brought discord and internal strife to Ger
many by starting similar stories about the same
race, and then moved in to profit from the dis
turbance and to set up a mighty political and
military machine which now threatens to de
stroy civilization i ; ' j ; :
He has said that he could disunite America in
short order. He appears to be getting the job
under way. And a lot of fundamentally loyal
Americans whose only error is thoughtless repe
tition of others remarks, are unwittingly help-
ing him. " . ; .

in a purse in the car, demonstrated a keen
and up-to-date sense of values. -

Lumbering Revives
As recently as November there was gloom
throughout the Pacific Northwest over the ap
parently certain doom of the lumber industry
due to governmental restrictions upon non-de-
fense construction. Remember?
Pearl Harbor changed all that. Immediately
after December 7 there was a rush of orders to -the
mills -all government orders for war pur
poses. December production amounted to some
134 million board feet, or 84 per cent of capaci
ty. This was somewhat under the November
production of 154 million feet, but it must be
taken into consideration that December is the
month in which mills ordinarily shut down for
repairs. In the effort to meet the government's
needs, shutdowns occurred only where the re
pairs were immediately necessary.
At the year end the mills had unfilled orders,
for 827 million board feet, an increase of 140
million for the month. Total production for the
year on the west coast was 8721 million feet
as compared to 7086 for the previous year and
6426 million feet in 1939. Government orders
already on file will keep the mills busy through
the first quarter of this year.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14 The senate runway on
farm prices was the result of some very1 quiet
scheming of a few farm bloc plotters on the sen
ate banking committee.
Paul Mallon
Stories are
talesman
Mr. Roosevelt's price fixer,
Leon Henderson, had been
lobbying ardently around, but
did not suspect the reins were
being cut until one day the
committee tried to keep him
out of a hearing. He and Agri
culture Secretary Wickard
were sitting outside.
The committee called in
Wickard, but said nothing
about letting Henderson into
their executive session, on his
own bill. He literally elbowed
his way through the door, and
there engaged both Wickard
and the farm blockers hotly and heavily.
What had thrown him further off their trail,
was the fact that a farm leader, Senator Bankhead,
had made an agreement in the committee to op
pose the OUahoney-Russell runaway amendment
(120 per cent of parity and up). Bankhead kept his
agreement. He voted against it. .
But it developed when the vote was taken, he
was not leading the farm bloc this time. When
the tellers looked around for the farm army usually
behind him, it was discovered he was a general
standing alone.
By the time Mr. Henderson and his busy boss,
Mr. Roosevelt, found they were faced with a
farm price boosting bill, it was too late to stop the
stampede. The bulk of the final votes against them
were being contributed by their own leading sena
tors from southern states.
It was rather generally understood in the cloak
rooms that cotton and potatoes would fare better
than other commodities under the bill. Trying to
stop a southern senator after a cotton price in
crease proved to be just like stopping an axis tank
with a red light. They felt labor had been allowed
to get away with wage increases, and saw re
tribution if not righteousness in their own positions.
No one seemed very proud of the senate after
ward, however. The debate had furnished no recog
nition that a war was on. Obviously many senators
had not raised their sights from -the November
elections. So FDR decided to take hold, and work out some
compromise in the cloistered privacy of the house
and senate conference committees which will- fit in
closer with his price limitation purposes. That will
be done.
The nazis have escaped the British trap in Libya
with at least two armored divisions intact. The
British can hold Bengazi and use it as a base for
further operations when the sunken ships are
cleared from the harbor. But for the present, hopes
of pushing on to Tripoli and perhaps into Italy,
must be held in abeyance. ,
Alexandria says sandstorms let the nazi.. rem
nants get away, but reinforcements which General
Rommel pushed in through Tripoli were certainly
equally responsible. The nazis further impeded the
British with carefully laid mine traps (abandoned
headquarters which would explode when a pencil
was lifted from a desk, mined abandoned tanks
and vehicles.)
Loss of Tarakan, chief oil port of the Dutch East
Indies, has also let our military men know a war
is on, and that we can lose it if we do not get our
coats off fast
The pattern that Far Eastern events are taking,
is plain. Small groups of Japs are able to bring
superior air, land and sea forces to bear upon re
mote extensive coastlines. They may get away with
it as long as their bases are closer than ours to
the fighting spots. ,
Our fleet of submarines would normally be
thrown in upon their line of supplies. As the Japs
move southward, the! going will therefore get
tougher.
The secret of success in this war Is no different
from the Civil war or revolution, although dif
ferent weapons are used. Expectations of victory
require superiority in numbers and equipment
not at home but at the point of contact with the
enemy. Until we can bring superior forces to bear
upon the Japs and nazis at points of our choosing,
we cannot reasonably expect too much.
around that American troops' wffl
serve under British officers but that means only
In isolated cases. A regiment or two In Australia,
for example, would serve under the British, but a
division would have its own commander (acting
under Generalissimo Wa veil, of course.
. An air force in Britain would serve under Ameri
can officers who have been observing in the royal
air force for some time. So would our tank force
in Libya, where a number of our junior and senior
officers have been gaining personal battle experi

centennial year, but do i

V S
(Continuing from yesterday:)
It had been resolved, at the Feb
ruary 17, 1841, meeting at the
Ewing Young grave side, to
form an organization with a gov
ernor, supreme judge with pro
bate powers, three justices of
the peace, three constables, three
road commissioners, an; attorney-general,
a clerk of the courts
and public recorder, a treasurer
and two overseers of the poor.
The meeting named a commit
tee to frame a constitution and
code of laws and to nominate
men for the various offices.
These decisions had been made
in committee of the whole. The
record of the Oregon Archives
reads:
s
"Resolved that the doings of
the committee of the whole be
deposited in the hands of the
chairman (Jason Lee), to be
presented at the meeting tomor
row. On motion, the meeting
then adjourned from the Young
grave side, to meet at eight
o'clock tomorrow."
The record for the next day,
Thursday, February 18 1841,
opens:

Income Tax
METHODS OF ACCOUNTING
AND RECORDS FOR INCOME
TAX PURPOSES
The internal revenue code
provides that the net income of
a taxpayer shall be computed
upon the basis of his annual
accounting period in accordance
with the method of accounting
regularly employed in keeping
bis books; but if no such meth
od of accounting has been so
employed or if the method em
ployed does not clearly: reflect
the income, the computation is
to be made in accordance with
such method as in the opinion
of the commissioner of internal
revenue does clearly reflect the
income.
The regulations recognize that
no uniform method of account
ing can be prescribed for - all
taxpayers, and the law contem
plates that each taxpayer shall
adopt such forms and Systems
of accounting as are in his
judgment best suited to his pur
pose. The methods of accounting
most generally used are (1) the
cash receipts and disbursement
method, and (f) the accrual
method. The regulations provide
that in order to reflect net in
come correctly, inventories at
the beginning and end of each
taxable year are necessary in
every case in which the produc
tion, purchase, or sale of mer
chandise is an income-producing
factor, and that in any case
in which it is necessary to use
an inventory, no method of ac
counting In regard to purchases
and sales will correctly; reflect
income except an accrual meth
od, r-
law to , torn 0f his true
income and under the regula-.
tions he is required to maintain
such accounting records as will
enable him to do so. His books
and records must be kept at all
times available for inspection by
internal revenue officers and re
tained as long as the contents
thereof may become material
in the administration of any iri-
, ternal revenue law.
Him Getting Off
(the Lee Mission), David Leslie
was elected chairman, and Sid
ney Smith and Gustavus Hines
were chosen secretaries.' (Smith
had been a member of the "Pe
oria" (Illinois) party of 1839-40,
and had worked for and with
Ewing Young. Rev. Gustavus
Hines was a prominent member
of the Methodist Mission headed
by Jason Lee.)
"The doings of the previous
meeting (the one at the grave
side of Ewing Young) were pre
sented to the assembly, and were
accepted in part, viz:
' S V m
" "That a committee be chosen
for framing a constitution, and
drafting a code of laws, and
that the following persons com
pose the committee, towit: Rev.
F. N. Blanchet, Rev. Jason Lee,
David Donpierre, Gustavus
Hines, Mr. Charlevon, Robert
Moore, J. L. Parrish, Etienne
Lucier and Wm. Johnson."
(Father Blanchet was the
leader among the pioneer Catho
lic missionaries in Oregon; be
came a bishop; his grave the
most prominent one in the
(new) Catholic cemetery at St.
Paul, Marion county. Jason Lee
Tas of course head of the Meth
odist mission. Donpierre, Charle
von ahd Lucier were pioneers
among the Canadian French set
tlers, former hunters and trap
pers for the Hudson's Bay com
pany. Gustavus Hines was a
member of the Methodist mis
sion; Robert Moore was a mem
ber of the Peoria party of 1839
40, became prominent in pioneer
Oregon; Rev. J. L. Parrish,
Methodist missionary, was one
of the founders of Salem, lived
here till his death, it seems al
most yesterday; Wm. Johnson
was one of the old Hudson's Bay
Company employees, but became
an American settler; was one of
the very first settlers of what
became the west side of Port
land; he had served on the Con
stitution (Old Ironsides) and
was with the landing party on
the Guerriere, when he was
wounded and his life saved only
by an iron piece in his hat)
S S
(But that committee to frame
a constitution and make a code
of laws never acted. Reasons too
long and complicated for telling
here. Quoting the Archives fur
ther:) "George W. LeBreton was cho
sen to fill the office of clerk of
courts and public recorder." (He
so remained, virtually secretary
of state, till he died from a sav
a g e Indian's bullet wound,
March 4, 1844. The Oregon Blue
Book lists him as Oregon's first
secretary of state, and properly
so; he was just that beginning
with that Thursday forenoon,
Feb. 18, 1841, at the Lee Mission.
NOT IN 1843; but he acted in
his official capacity, as was
proper, at all the meetings of
the Oregon Provisional Govern
ment in 1843 and the preliminar
ies thereto at the first building
of the ; Oregon Institute, at the
Joseph Gervais house; at the
May meeting at Champoeg; at
all the meetings at the Lee Mis
, sion to frame the constitution,
4 and at. the one of July 5 at
Champoeg; to adopt the "laws
. and constitution,'' and no one
ever ' told i where ' the "constitu
tion" left off and the "laws' be
gan.)
Quoting further from the of
ficial record of the Feb. 18, 1841,
meeting at the Jason Lee Mis
sion: - - . . - '
X L. Babcock was appointed
to fill the office of supreme
judge, with probate powers. Re
solved, That until a code of laws
v:-
Dr. Baboock be instructed to act
according to the laws of New
York."
SSI.'
"Wm. Johnson was chosen to
fill the office of high sheriff."
(He was the same hero of the
"Old Ironsides" battle, his wife
a member of one of the Indian
tribes.)
f "F. X. Ladtroot, Pierre Belli
que and Wm. McCarty were
chosen constables." (The first
two were prominent pioneers
who had been among the French
Canadian hunters and trappers,
whose descendants are still nu
merous in the northern part of
'"'Marion county and elsewhere in
Oregon. McCarty was probably
not a German.)

Chapter i (Continued)
When the Prince was being
hustled to the patrol car, three
other officers began :a swift but
systematic search of the entire
apartment. They grabbed Toto
le Chat; a half empty bottle of
absinthe explained bis dead-to-
the-world sleep; and Jacqueline,
the maid, .whose opened mouth
was stuffed and stilled in the
nick ' time by a silk stocking.
And they found a slim-bladed
knife and a small Browning
automatic pistol. I
When Philip Horton arrived at
the flat he rang the bell, and it
was nearly five minutes before' it
was answered. To his surprise,
Anne de Vassignac herself flung
the door open.
"Sacre nom d'uri . . ." she
began and then saw who it was.
"Philip, he breather. "Have you
He nodded, and entering,
closed the door behind him.
"I've got it Anne,x he said and
held out the brown paper parcel
to her.
She hurried into the drawing
room never giving a thought to
Satsui's supposed presence in the
flat, though Horton glanced
round in expectation of seeing
the Japanese.
Anne broke the string, un
wrapped the parcel, and laid the
magnificent string of emeralds
on a small table. "At last" she
said softly. "At last!"
My necklace!" She turned impet
uously to the man- and laid a
slim hand on his arm. "Philip,
darling," she said, "you've done
It!" She looked up at the drawn,
haggard face of the man, and put
up a gentle hand and stroked
his cheek. "You're tired," she
said. "So tired. My poor Philip!"
"Anne!" he said thickly. She
smiled and he 'gathered her into
his arms and kissed her.
"My poor -Philip," Anne cooed
in that soft voice of hers, which
could be so caressing when she
wished. "You must get some
rest. Would you sleep here in
Nikki's flat?"
His face appeared convulsed
at the mention of the Japanese's
name.
"No," he said shortly, "not
here. IH see you in the morn
ing. I'm simply dropping."
She watched him go, heard
the click of the door as he went
out and then turned once more
to worship at the; green shrine
of the wonderful Jewels which
. had already cost two lives.
Outside in the corridor Hor

Today's Garden
By LILLIE L MADSEN
CM. asks if limbs on trees
are not completely broken off
but just split and twisted, will
they mend if tied back on?
Answer- In a few cases, yes,
and these are worth the try, but
try to get the limb back in a
very straight condition, as near
ly like it grew before as possible.
Then tie it securely in place
and put grafting wax around the
wound or paint it with some
tree paint
Do not . use wires to tie up the
branches, use cords, or better
still, if the material is strong,
strips of cloth. I have used suc
cessfully pieces of denham over-
alls.: Wires or cords sometimes
cut the bark.
You will have to watch your
tree carefully and remove the
bands when the wound has
knitted. Don't like one garden
er of a few years ago, forget
all about them so that the bark
eventually grows over the bands.
This may greatly injure the tree,
and it will make a rough spot on
the bark.
Do - nfci allow any ragged
pieces of bark or limb to 'hang
on the trees. Be careful to make
a smooth diagonal cut which
will shed rain, and then remem
ber the paint
And don't as Mrs. H. R.
wishes to do, "shape" your tree
at once. Cut or trim off broken
branches and ends and call that
sufficient pruning for the time
being. Your shrubs are a differ
ent matter.
