K I : ; The Journal observes: i I i "The fundamental cause is not difficult. to identify. It was a deep-seated lack of confidence Al a! ratr AMVmf ttnittUTa which aroused a dominant desire for safety and ef fectively paralyzed the instinct ' for- adven- -ture, driving the investor toward what looked like shelter and leaving him cold to what in fact turned out to be opportunities for1 a handsome return on his money. In other words the phe nomenon is merely one of the many 'which re ' fleet the world-wide crisis through which we have- been passing in the years following the last war, and of which that was but the over- r ture. . j . . , This analysis is correct. Fear has beaten down prices of bonds and stocks. Late recoveries have by no means wiped out the heavy discounts in many classes of securities. This fear relates not only to -the individual security but to the whole , structure of business. The effect is not only det- rimental to existing business but also discour nirintf ta adventures in 'new enterprises1 . . ' The mainspring of our, economic system is profit. The damage done by speculative finan- vicrs til i uic ittv m ouu uj vaa-wa muvwiivii . - of the 30s has left -gaping wounds in the busi--riess world. One of the best contributions to "so cial security" is the Shoring up of business by assurances that it will receive fair treatment by the political arm. The adage is old, very old, but still true, of the unwisdom of "killing the goose that lays the golden eggS." There are signs that even the politicians have become conscious of the value of business. That is reflected in price increases in second-rate bonds. If it can be en couraged business health may be restored enough to provide abundant employment in productive enterprise when the war .buying boom ends. j Quislings, Post-TVar j" Governments-in-exile are pondering what to do with their Quislings when their exile ends and they resume authority in home lands. For the ranking ..or. .rankest) iislmgs there will 'doubtless be one prompt .decision: trial for trea son and execution of the guilty. But what about the thousands ojt other 'collaborators'' ? "Vrij Nederland". Free Dutch weekly pub lished in London discusses this subject in. a re cent issue. It estimates' there are about 60,000 members of the Dutch nazi party two-thirds of one per cent . of the: whole population. "Vrij Nederland" admits "one cannot shoot them all" which is true, the Dutch capacity for blood letting being only a fraction of that of the Hit lerites east of them. And, while some may .be sent to prison, or concentration camp, : "Vrij Nederland. says this will not solve the whole problem "because then we would keep a sou- venir of this war for at least 30 years and these concentration camps would become universities for treason." . , ; . j Then the weekly hits upon this solution: "Why cannot the United Nations compel Ger i many, under the armistice . and peace terms, to accept all ; Quislings and their families , as German citizens? j Those concerned would not have any objections because they never want- - ed anything else than to be German. They mis behaved like Germans. They often said they - ," "T wanted to fight and suffer with Germany. All right, they fought with Germany and now they can suffer with Germany." ' . ' That! an idea. And maybe it has an applica tion with reference to the Japs in the USA. Why - not provide that the Japs who confess loyalty to Japan: be repatriated to the land of their pre ference? We venture the opinion though, that when the war Is over Che last thing the Jap-Japs v will want is to be shipped back to Japan. Barney Baruch, old and wise, is finally, back r in war administration. He made a real success in bossing production in the first world war, He's been onthe sidelines except for consul ta ( tion and for-special assignment, like the rubber f committee, during ,thisT war His return -will 7 strengthen public confidence in the Byrnes or ganization, with, which he is to be connected, though the new dealers will probably grumble f over hitf recognition;" - I Look what a-transfusion the English lang uage gets out of the current LA hoodlumism: cholitas, or "slick chicks", the feminine for pa A chucos, wearers of "the reat pleat zoot suits. Cho ; litas also wear black huaraches. Soon LA will . pronounce Mexico "Mehico", the same as it sounds on our radio rom Mehico City. ' ' - Washington state, which has been a hotbed of i public ownership agitation, enjoys a residential : lighting rate of 65 per cent under the national t average.' But if the rate" were zero the agitators I would Still want to put somebody out of busi- Secy Ickes pulled his hand back from the coal 'mine fire when he felt the heat, His order to fine strikers was rather an unnecessary irri tant in time of crisis. What should have been done (but couldn't) was to fire the whole lot of strikers, and bar them from work for a term. The governors of Oregon and Washington met n the interstate bridge and pledged to keep t mm mm m . mm M . - I sv M tne norm west green." Ana nexi That's getting quick results.

U-Boat Rumor ' 4 The Roseburg News-RevieW has been hearing more rumors about Jap "subs; oft. the Oregon coast. We've, heard them too, or rather rumors of how they were being bopped off. As the N-R says, "If all the Japanese submarines rumored to have been sunk by our aerial patrols have actually, been sent to the .bottom, the Nip navy . must be getting awfully short on U-boats." Correct: or are we just long on rumors? We can't for the life of us see why the' navy doesn't announce promptly if it has knocked out a Jap sub off this coast. It would give the people here the thrill of knowing they had a ringside seat, on the war. When the navy- or army waits . 14 months to : let. the news out, and then via an officer's story in, an eastern magazine, the sinking, though it take place right at our own land's edge seems as far re moved from us as though it occurred in Aus tralian waters. There is distance in time as well as space. -;:.:-:c ' : .. v;' I As far as keeping the information from the enemy, what good is that? IWouMn't the ex--ultation in announcing a sinking be harder on the Japs than getting the news through ultimate non-return of the sub? But perhaps there's been nothing of the kind to announce. Commnnity' Property . The Astorian-Budget, discussing the state's new community property law,recpnunends: r "Our advice to those who contemplate exer cising their option to take advantage of it is to consult an attorney or tax counsellor in order to get a clear picture of what the situation is." As the learned judges sometimes say: We con cur in the conclusion, but not in the reasoning. If those considering enrolling under this split income law will consult attorneys or tax Coun sellors, as they should,,' the picture they will get is apt to be clear as mud. It will probably remain so until court decisions are rendered. Benjamin Elbert Bede, via the Portland Ore gonian open forum, avers and declares that ex pansion of legislature expenses, which was commented on in this column recently, has been probably less rapid than of the governor's of fice. Over a long term period that may be; but Elbert will not have to look very far back to find ONE governor's four-year term when the same didn't occur, despite war time expenses. . In some offices girls have pouted or struck because they were not allowed to wear slacks. At Ford's Highland Park plant they rebelled at an order to wear slacks and insisted on appear ing in conventional dress. All of which' proves that women are still women, even if they work in offices. . Sir William Beveridge, author of a British plan for social security, didn't wait for his law to be passed. Well advanced in years, he just got. married, which after all is an ancient and plea sant form of "social security." , Just as the weather really starts to warm up the government people start talking about fuel oil shortage next winter. -Why send shivers up peoples' spines like that now? A circus advance agent was in town last week. . This news should stimulate recruitment of strawberry pickers among the younger, genera tion those with no grandpas. ::i ;;- What's the radio act "Truth or Consequen ces". Charlie Chaplin seems to avoid the truth but takes the consequences. Knocking the pants off Pantelleria seems to reveal that the allied air force has knocked the pants off the vaunted luftwaffe. "Air attack on Munda" runs a headline. Soon It will be Munda, Tusda and on through to Sunda. - Editorial Comment From Other Papers ; . . ' - - ZOOTS : - - As a matter of scenic interest there must be some , regret that soldiers and sailors in Los Angeles have taken to stripping zootsuit hepcats down to their shorts, or longies as the case may be. Rivals of na ture in her most prodigal momenta, the peer of any tiger, lily, ragweed or sunflower and the envy of the most gorgeous lizard, the zootsuiters nave been a nCTer-failing enchantment to the. eye. ; But the service men say the glad raiment has masked rascals rejected by military service on their cruninal .records and who have been beating; rob bing and otherwise preying on the men at leisure from their fighting duties. This and not a sense of sartorial puritanism is their excuse for action. Off hand, it would seem that the xootsuit's touch of elegance wm be missing from the vista of fight ing forces. San Francisco Chronicle : - Czechoslovakia has had a Lidice; Cfrfaa has had many of them. Since China was invaded in the summer of 1937 Japan has been guilty of barbar ities of a kind that has not been exceeded since the scourge of the Mongols fell on Asia and Eastern Europe. .V , I, :. .. 'j : I-: iy-i": : i : : The Japanese have chosen how they want to rep resent themselves to the world. Weshall take them at their own valuation, on their own -showing. We shall not forget, and we shall see mat a penalty is paid. From editorial N. Y. Times, - ' We have In Britain, as you have in America, plenty of people who would rather drift into a third ' world war than make the intellectual effort and the-eacrifice of prejudice that wfH be necessary to avoid it ' We may stfH be terribly oumumbered by the stu pid and the selfish.

"Good morning, Mr. Wain. Td like to talk to you." If there were American Grand Duchesses, Christopher decided, Helen would be one of them. To begin with, he had had a most difficult time getting in touch with her. Remembering Ann's forwarding address, he had tried put him on the trail to White Sulphur Springs and, although he hadn't got Helen, he had, got. a haughty - person by the name of Arthur, who was stub bornly, reluctant to tell a strange male voice where his, Arthur's wife, could be found in New York-. . :,..-" '-' ',.

Helen had exploded .right off, like a string of Chinese firecrackers, and it had taken him some time to convince-her that Doctor Matheson, the Riv ers old family physician, was taking . care of Ann, and that 1 Emma Jeeves was helping. The presence of Emma Jeeves seemed to be the one bright spot for Helen. If Emma were in the house it meant , that her sister was being properly chaperoned. But even so, Helen lost no time in appearing on the scene, with one Tom Barton in tow. Chris topher didn't .know to this mo ment where Mr. Barton figured in the set-up, but he carried all roe earmarxs or an oia xamuy friend. , . fir .
