Much "War, Little Peace V -
Anti-war literature, most of it produced since
1918, fills a couple of shelves in the Salem city
library. A complete collection of such books
doubtless would overflow an entire section- to
say nothing of the -bales of magazine articles.
j Americans have high regard for the potency of
propaganda; this barrage was unavailing. A
great deal of the stuff was worthless, we can
see now, because it attacked the problem di
rectly or, if it sought out the root causes of
war, seized upon the wrong ones. .. ,
But the shortcoming we noticed especially in
a hasty scanning of this literature was its pre
occupation with World War I, an irritating
circumstance inasmuch as our quest at the mo
ment was something factual about the incidence
of war. - '
Just how frequent and how prolonged have
wars been over given periods in history; what
proportion of the time has peace prevailed!
Seems an interesting question, and pertinent too,
bearing upon the difficulty of finding a formula
for permanent peace. The books didn't go into
that, but with a chronology of general history as
a framework and some reference work on the
side, we have worked out part of it.
i "War," the German militarists insisted In
1914 and again in 1939, "is the natural state of
man." If that be true, man is in a sorry state.
We'don't believe it. Still, if not a natural state,
war has been in some periods almost a per
, petual state.
Take the last eight hundred years before the
Christian era. You might start even earlier
perhaps even at the beginning of recorded his
tory but back there history was sketchy and
i dates uncertain, and war so common that spe
cific records of the beginnings and ends of
wars were neglected or later mislaid. '
It wasn't much later than 800 BC when the
Assyrians V came down like a wolf on the fold"
and stayed on the rampage most of the time for
150 years, to be followed by Nebuchadnezzar's
Babylonians; then the Persians successively
tinder Cyrus, Cambyses, Darius and Xerxes kept
things humming until the quarrelling Greek
states were ready to take over. and wind up the
first half of this eighth-century period with the
27 -year Peloponnesian war, though for that
matter the Persians were still in there fighting
at Cunaxa in 401.
It's a pretty fair bet there was no more fight
ing in the second half but there the dates are
more exact. Here's the chronology, perhaps
not quite accurate but near enough to make our
point. All dates are "BC":
394 Corinthian war (8 years)
887 Gauls burn Home
882 Olynthian war (4 years)
. 876 Athens vs. Sparta again
862 Battle of Man tinea (Thebans drub Spartans)

conquest) -
323 Second Samnite war (21 years)

312 Demetrius campaigns (29 years, mostly war)
298 Third Samnite war (9 years)

111 Jugur thine war (5 years)
- 109 Rome wars on Cimbri and Teutons
(8 years)
. 90 Social war (2 years) , 1
88 First Mithridatic war, Rome vs. Persia'
(4 years) '
88 Marius vs. Sulla, civil war ,
83 Second Mithridatic war (2 years)
74-rThird Mithridatic war (11 years)
73 Servile war (2 years)
j 69 Lucullus' campaigns (3. years)
64 Pompey takes Syria
58 Caesar's Gallic wars (8 years)
55 Caesar invades Britain
49 Caesar vs. Pomey, civil war
57 Caesar in Egypt (Venl, vldi, vicl) '
46 Caesar in Africa
45 Ditto in Spain
42 Battles of Philippl
32 Anthony vs. Augustus, civil war
31 Augustus triumphs at Actium ;
20 Tiberius on the march (12 years) ' .
Allowing one year as an average for -the tus
sles whose duration 'is unspecified and giving
full time-credit to each war when more than
one was in progress, thai chronology of 400
years accounts for 290' years of warfare and
leaves only four j?eace-gaps of more than a
decade, the longest being 19 years. We can't
v guarantee that those were entirely peaceful.
And though warfare possibly was then less
murderously efficient " than now and some of
, those wars were minor affairs, in others vast
armies were engaged. Julius Caesar on his
" northern campaigns knew each of his soldiers
by name; but Xerxes was reputed to have had
an army of 1,700,000 and a navy of 4200 vessels
including 1200 triremes.
Has the world done much better ' since the
. dawn of the Christian era? Give us a few days
and we'll try to find the answer.
Ililk Prices and T7ar 7ages
A representative of the, Office of Price Ad
ministration has been meeting with groups of
dairymen throughout Oregon to hear 4heir
story, whose general purport is that higher
prices for mlk are necessary because their costs,
MIHMM MM
"No Favor Sways Us; No rear Shall Ato
From first Statesman, March 28, 1831
including feed and labor, have risen substantial
ly. The OPA man listens but doesn't offer much
encouragement. If milk prices are permitted to
advance milk being definitely a cost-of-living
item that win be a lever tending to lift war
industry wages still further, he points out,
though qualifying his statement by explaining
that his job is merely to report and that he has
not voice in the final decision. .
Existence of the broader economic problem
is of no help to the dairymen, many of whom
are right now "up against it." Many of tho
smaller- operators are selling their herds or
threatening to sell them; meanwhile Camp
Lewis is begging for milk but western Oregon
is in no position to supply It and a shortage
in Portland is threatened.
Incidentally, despite the failurer of supply to
equal demand, several dairymen reported that
fines had recently been levied for over-production.
There may be an explanation but on the
face of it this doesn't make sense.
But the big question is and we recognize
that the fault is not OPA's, for Leon Henderson
has consistently fought for wage ceilings
why are war industry wages so far out of lino
with previous wages for civilian production?
And what is government going to do about it? -

WASHINGTON, Aug. 19 The Russian situation
does not look too bad. It is dangerous, discouraging
yet far from disastrous, so far.
Events are shaping up toward a winter battle

is yet to be determined, and the Russian cause is
not without hope. The army of the southern com-
mander Timoshenko, is still intact, has merely
been retreating, and not attempting to make a major
stand north of the mountains, and therefore should
be able to do this job which is cut out for it
Winter should start closing down the northern
front, above the parallel of Moscow, within ten
days. Snow there generally starts around Labor '
day.
A heavy rainy season, which' will impede me
chanical activities generally, sets in south of Mos
cow about the latter part of September and Octo
ber, and continues In varying degrees until winter
hardens the terrain.
On this central front, the Russians are assum
ing a defensive position, which they hope to main
tain through the winter, along the excellent natural
line of the Volga and part of the Don.
Hitler has just now started some unexpected of
fensive thrusts around Voronezh to break this Don
line in the center. He may soon go hard after Len
ingrad and Moscow again, but so far, north of
Voronezh neither side has had enough strength to
make any appreciable dent in the other. -
The layout of the whole front now is sucHk,that
the reds could lose both Leningrad and Moscow and
not have to give hi if they can hold the Caucasus
mountains and the Volga-Don line. , "
If Hitler fails to get Stalingrad he will no doubt
cut southeastward, along the east bank of the
Volga to Astrakhan, but no one expects him to
go across the deep, safe line of that mighty river
before the snow flies there, also.
Food may become Stalin's worst enemy this
winter. 'Unprecedented bumper crops have been
raised this summer in all unoccupied areas of Rus
sia; but the total volume of the production natural-
Ki? far Aori oI "a8" up the loss of the rich
Ukraine fields to the Germans. True also, we can
not hope to get much in to them. Murmansk, off
the Arctic ocean is an ice-free port throughout the
winter, but German bombings, and the traffic jams
on the single railroad southward to Moscow, have
made it an inadequate base. No others are useable
to any great extent. .
. ' t : ... - i - ..
Nothing has been reported concerning Japanese
Intentions In Siberia, since they concentrated heavy
forces on the Manchukuo border a month ago. They
may strike at any minute, and close that Pacific
port, which has not been of great use anyway, in
view of the long railroad haul from there to the
European battlefront '
If coming events of the battle during the' next
. few weeks will only bear out these modest hopes,
- you will find the summer campaign has not really
developed much beyond what was-expected and
prophesied last spring in this spot, namely, that
the nazis would get a lot more territory but would
not get the Russian armies.

line in the south, running
roughly along the top of the
Caucasus mountains, across the
vital oil regions. This would
mean that he reds may keep
the richest and best of the oil
producing area, south of those
mountains, out of nazi hands
for another winter.
If they can hold the Baku
area, where more than 50 per
cent of all Russian oil has been
produced, they will not consider
this a very unsuccessful cam
paign, when measured against
their advanced hopes.
Hitler has seized the Maikop fields, and no doubt
soon will get Grozny, on the northern side of the
mountain range. The reds have announced that
the Maikop wells have been "destroyed," which
only means that it will probably take Hitler six
months to restore the production system and get
oil from them.
No doubt the reds will similarly "destroy" the
Grozny producing area now at Hitler's reaching
fingertips. - v ,
If they can hold the excellent natural barrier of
the protecting Baku mountains, it may not do them
much good, as far as supplying their own oil
needs, but they will at least keep this vital prize
from the nazis. Their home supply has been esti
mated sufficient to carry them through the winter.
The Black sea will be lost to them but they
have some shipping in the Caspian, which will en
able them to communicate with the main front.-It
would be too dangerous a route, and cannot be "
freely used, but we can get some supplies and planes
in to them through Iran. Furthermore, there is at
least one arms factory behind that line.

Chapter 28 continued
Much had happened since 1921
He had pulled Rainier's out of
the depths into shallow water;
there had even during the second
half of 1923 and first few months
of 1924, been a few definite
pointers to dry land. The prefer
ence dividend was now being
paid again, while the ordinary
shares dividendless and with
out any sign of any, stood, at
twelve shillings and were occas
ionly. given a run up to sixteen
or seventeen. Chet had a contin
uing order with a broker to sell
a couple of thousand and buy
back at the lower, it was the
only speculation Charles would
allow, but Chet derived a good
deal of pleasure from It, imag
ining himself a titan of finance
whenever he made' the price of
a new car. Chet still lived at
Stourton, though part of the
place was closed up; it was real
ly cheaper to live in a house one
couldn't sell than rent another.
The rest of the family had had
to make similar economies, but
the real pressure had been, re
laxed by the resumption of the
preferance dividend, and they
were all comfortably off by any
standards except those of the
extremely rich.
Chapter 24
Jill could afford now her
cruises and flirtations, with no
handicaps .to the latter except
advancing middle age and none
to the former save an increasing
difficulty in finding new places
to cruise to. Julia and her hus
band lived in Cheltenham, play
ing golf and breeding Sealy
hams; George and Vera preferred
town life and had taken a newly
built maisonnette in Hampstead.
Julian was at Cannes, doing
nothing in particular with his
usual slightly sinister elegance;
once or twice a year he turned
up in London, took Charles for
lunch to the Reform Club, and
worked off a few well-polished
epigrams. Bridget had married an
officer in an Irish regiment and
lived in a suburb of Belfast She
had had one child, a boy, and
was expecting another. With
George's girl and Julia's boy
anV girl, this made a problem
atical five against seven of the
previous generation, unless (as
Chet put it) Charles hurried up.
They were not, however, at all
anxious, for Charles to hurry
up; and as both Lydia and Jill
were past the age when any
amount of hurry might be ex
pected to yield result, and as
Vera was sickly "and Julia (so
she boasted) had nothing to do
with her husband any more, the
. ratio really depended on Brid

en considered Julian In such
a connection.
Much more, though, had hap
pened between 1921 and 1924.
The ancient Irish problem had
apparently been settled; a con
ference at Washington had ar
ranged limitation of naval arm
aments between England, Japan,
France, and the United States,
someone had almost climbed Ev
erest; the German mark had col
lapsed and French troops had
entered the Ruhr; Mussolini was
rebuilding Italy and had already
bombarded Corfu; there had been
an earthquake in Japan, there
had almost been another war
with Turkey, there was still a
war in Morocco, and there was
going to be an exhibition at
Wembley.
By 1924 Charles also had
changed a little. It was not so
much that he looked older rath
er that he seemed to have
reached the beginnings of a cer
tain agelessness that might last
indefinitely. He kept himself fit
with careful living and week
ends by the sea; faithful to mem
ories, he had bought a small
house in Portslade that was not
too expensive to keep up In ad
dition to his London apartment
no longer the one near the Brit
ish Museum, but a service flat
In Smith Square. He worked
long office hours, and had to
make frequent journeys to Rain
ier factories throughout England;
there were certain hotels where
- he always stayed, and to the
staffs of these he was satisfying

In 1924 Charles was thirty and
Kitty nineteen. She had done
well at Newnham, obtaining a
second in tha men's tripos ex-,
amination, but of course she
could not take a degree. On the
day she finally left the college
she went direct from Liverpool
Street Station to the Rainier of
fices, hoping Charles might be
free for lunch; he was out, but
found her still waiting in his pri
vate room on his return during
the late afternoon.
"Oh, Uncle Charles, did you
mind? I felt I must call I feel
so sad. I don't know what to do

nobody left in the world but
you!"
He laughed and telephoned
for tea. "I'm glad I never had

good. It was only going to be for

public debate, starting .
-with this Thursday morning:
S V V v
Last Thursday's issue of this
column, discussing an advertise
ment of the Salem Business Col
lege covering a full page in the
1874 Salem Directory, said:
"In the center of the page
advertisement, of the Salem
Business College, the name of
. the college at the top being
printed in red, is, printed In
blue, a picture of a lady bear-,
ing the American Flag, and,
printed in red, underneath the
lady's picture, this, line: ESTO
PERPETUA. '
o W '
"Can the reader tell the writ
er what that means? The writer
took from Its dusty shelf the
Latin Dictionary- that . comas
. down to him from his school
days. The reader who never be
longed to a Latin class in school
can guess what perpetua means;
that it signifies perpetuity, ever
lastingness, like it sounds along
with, English; and that is cor
rect But . how about the word
esto? The writer cannot find it.
in his school dictionary that was
standard , at the University of
Oregon in its early days.
So he relayed the inquiry,
through a Willamette university
student That student finds,
from Dr. Alex A. . Vazagas, a
member of the faculty of that
institution, that esto means this.
Is there a reader to uispute
this? Is it perhaps 'hog . Latin
instead, like a friend at the writ
er's elbow intimates that it
sounds?
The person who wrote the
1874 full page advertisement in
the Salem Directory for the Sa
lem Business College must have
thought1 esto meant something
like this. That is, Latin for this.
"And he must have thought
the symbolic figure in red, white
and blue representing the Salem
Business College of that day
represented a true perspective
of the institution and intended
for it to give fortfi. a prediction.
That is, this (school) (this in
stitution) would live forever;
that it represented perpetuity;
it was a symbol of everlasting
life. . .

"Would there be any law or
precedent against some person
or company getting busy on at

GIKL WELDER'S LAMENT
I wouldn't stay home and
Be a soldier's wife;
So X took up welding
And, oh! what a life, j
I roll out at five and
Grab some toast.
Run down to the shop
And sweat and roast.

And says, "See here.

Like foam on a beer."

That burn holes in your

To make you come out
Of your old sweet dreams.
But the ships we build.
Well build fast and well
Ana we u mow tnose Nips
