Surplus Stocks . I r-
After the last war surplus stocks of goods
of all kinds were thrown on the market. They r.
were bought up at about 36 cents-oh the dollar
and sold to the public. So-called 1"Army and
Navy" stores sprang up and handled .large
quantities of these goods, especially clothing
items. . , - . '
But the 5 million dollars worth ot goods
on hand when the first world war ended is only
about a fifth of what will be counted surplus
when the present war comes to a close. Al
ready people are viewing this surplus with vary
ing eyes according to their interests. Traders
and speculators and dealers in salvage stocks
are doubtless getting ready for a. killing as they ,
see huge quantities of clothing, hardware, pro
visions offered for sale. On the other hand es
tablished manufacturers and merchants wonder
where they will get off if these goods are
dumped on the markets. What business will
regular dealers and manufacturers .have so long
as merchandise in heavy volume hangs over
the market? : j.
'The routine of such operations j is this: The
government department first offers its surplus
to other government depajstmems. inen u. uw
call comes from a government department .the
goods are put up for sale by the procurement
division of the treasury department. Lists of
offerings are given out from the regional offices
of the division in Washington; New York. Bos
ton, Atlanta, Cincinnati, Forth Worth and Kan
sas City; and sales are made to the ; highest
bidder. -..
It is reasonable to expect that the government
will go in for of derly liquidation of its stocks,
but knowledge of their existence can't help
but bear down the markets. One thing sure,
we will find out where a lot of the copper,
steel, cotton and wool went when the war. ends
and the government-held surpluses show up.
Future for Ships j
Before the war this country had eight mil
lion tons of merchant shipping. The Maritime
commission estimates that by the end of 1944
we will have 40,000,000 tons of ; shipping. ,
The significance of this Is plain: wlien the
war endsbuilding of merchant ships will end.
There may be some work" Of converting the
Liberty-type ships into faster cargo -carriers,
or making over the C-2 boats now -used in war
service for merchant use; but only a small pro
portion of the million and a half men and wo-
men now building ships will be required for
this purpose. ' ; " 1 ' 4 v"
British shipping will amount to 20 million
tons which is about its pre-war volume. Brit-,
ish yards will be busy with building new cargo
rnlarp older shins: but Britain will
hardly add to its total tonnage so long as this
country has 40 million tons. j
Admiral Vickery of the .Maritime commis
sion served notice in England recently that the
United States would be in the merchant marine
business after the war in a substantial way,
which disturbed the British considerably, be
cause : they have depended so much on their
carrying trade to support their people.
Looking ahead we can see the tapering off
and final virtual shutdown of shipbuilding, ex
cept on a limited peace-time scale, and a per
iod of competition as the United States seeks
to employ its war-expanded merchant ' fleet.
What may save foreign competitors is the high
cost of operating American ships, unless our ,
government continues a liberal subsidy to ship
operators, which may not be very popular when
post-war budgets are under consideration!
Filipino Quislings
When Pres. Manuel Quezon gets back to Ma
nila one of his first chores will be to deal with
some of the Filipino Quislings who have sprung
up in his absence. Thinking to join hands in
Japan "co-prosperity" sphere some of the lo
cal leaders have consented to serve as puppets
for an independent Philippine government,
which was instituted October 14th. Its president
is Jose Laurel .one-time justice of the Philip
pine supreme court, t ; ;
It is to counter Japanese gestures of granting
independence to the Philippines that Pres.
.Roosevelt announced his purpose to; ask con
gress I to assure the Filipinos t independence
would be effective as soon as the" Japs are driv
,en out. Sen. Tydings has introduced ' a bill to
that effect. Under the present law independence
date was set for 1946. j. -
A Chilean journalist in the current exchange
of nationals says that Japan has made consid
erable headway in winning support, of natives
in occupied countries, except in the Philippines.

American methods of colonial administration
proved far more successful in welding native
support than the British methods. And when

to revise their methods or elsec the virus of

Magpie Bounty
Over in Idaho the fish and game commission
is 'offering a bounty of three cents a head for s
every dead magpie. This showy bird, with his.
dress of black satin and white,' is a rascal not ,
without some redeeming qualities. He is famed
for his petty, thievery, and in captivity, with a-; -split
tongue is as talkative as a crow. But he
has no friends in the great out-of-doors. He is
a nest-robber, one of the worst; and he preys
on nests of birds with some economic value,
either as game birds or feeders. on field worms r
and insects. ; , ' , .
At the bird refuge in Harney county, the mag
pie, along with the raven is rated as a preda
tor, while the commonly abused hawk is giv
en a good rating. Take the Swenson hawk
"he's 105 good," John Scar.f of the refuge will
tell you. In short, he does more good than he ,
does harm. But the magpie, don't let his scold
ing or his colorful coat deceive you. He's a. ras
cal among the birds, and the three-cent bounty
is, money well spent to put him out of circu
lation. . ; - '

WASHINGTON, October 18 JThere are going
to be about 10,000,000 in the fighting services.
Whoever controls those votes should win the next
election. While therehas been no public discussion .
of this most important matter,
the forward looking men in the .
. political business here : have
been devoting thought to it ';
Coming forward now with a
complete plan of how to do it,
is Senator Theodore Francis
Green, democrat of Rhode Is
land, whose autobiography re
veals him both as. an instructor :
in Roman law at Browntuni
versity back in 94 to 97, and
pnl MUUea ;. delegate to an ; aemocrauc
national conventions since 1912. f f -
Mr. Green dropped a . bill into the senate com- .
mittee on privileges and elections last week to pro
vide for gathering our fighters ballots, but which,
inadvertently disclosed the extent to which he, as
a democrat, would like to capture mem.
All in very high-toned legal language and fair
sounding words, in his trick bill, he would have
the voting conducted by five commissioners to be
appointed by the president,; with senatorial con
firmation, saying "at least two shall be democrats
and at least two shall be republicans.' This would
'simply allow the president to select three new, deal
ers and two republicans of, say, the Winant school '
of new deal thought, to conduct the elections. ;
To help them in their work, the Green bill would '
destroy all state rules for qualifications of voters
as to age, eligibility, registration and poll taxes.
Not only fighters would be allowed, to vote il
legally but also all civilian employes of the gov
ernment away from home, mostly political appoin
tees of course.' The merchant marine, communist
juopect, is also especially mentioned as being al
lowed these extra-legal rights.
Indeed, the bill throughout gives "other branches
of government," the right to manage and collect
votes of all non-military men, beyond army or
navy Jurisdiction. (The government politicians thus
managing their own re-election.) . f
The war and navy secretaries are alone to fur-.
nish the fighters "information as to candidates."
Messrs. Stimson and Knox ere particular types of
republicans in this democratic cabinet who will not
be in the .republican cabinet if republicans win the
next election. No provision is made for any oppo
sition political factions of this country to submit
their cases to soldiers. , . . : f. I -t .
Other details of the proposal reveal an equally
elephantine insensitivity to any resemblance of
political justice generally associated with ejections,
in laws and theories at least.? v t
Now everyone knows 10,000,000 fighters must be
allowed to vote; also the merchant marine and gov
ernment officials in various parts of the : world.
But a fair presentation of the political alternatives
and a just collection of the ballots must be offered.
The governing commission may contain two re
publicans and two democrats, but should be chair--maned
by some non-political legal personality such
as the chief justice of the supreme court.
The ballots must be cast under the state elec
tion laws in order to be legal. Local election agen
cies should mail out ballots to the men in the armed
services and the votes should be cast by mailing
back the marked ballots to the local officials. Op
portunities to qualify should be offered by mail by
local authorities.
The names of eligibles could be obtained from
draft boards and the war department could fur
nish addresses, in accordance with recognized ab
: aentee ballots in most of the states. In states having
no absentee ballot system, special state laws should
be passed or regulations adopted to allow soldiers
to vote.
Information as to candidates should be present
ed by both sides to the controversy, the republican
and democratic candidates. They should have equal
,. radio time, equal space in any OWX political propa
; ganda, and allowed equal quantities of printed ma
terial. Any- election gained under the circumstances
which the Green mbill provides would not be worth
much to the winner if he be in the party Mr. Green
represents. Such an. election would only further
. destroy faith la democracy.

In the pioneer parade was an
old hack of the Umatilla house
at The- Dalles, famed hostelry
of the early days. It was run
during the Ws by the late Con-
. gressman Nick Sinnott's father
an imposing figure of f a man.
Bowerman related how on one
occasion a man named , A. P.
Armstrong, a county superin
tendent, of Multnomah county,
visited The Dalles to address a,
teachers' institute. He registered:
at the Umatilla house, and left
his bag there which bore his
initials . -A-P-A. Those were
fighting letters a half-century
ago. The elder Sinnott, himself
aytrong Catholic, came into the
lobby, saw the bag-with its of
fensive initials, threw it out and
Armstrong too. No advocate ' of
the "American Protective Asso
ciation" could enjoy the hospi
tality of the Umatilla house.
- Bowerman had couple of
other good yams. One was about
the late Joe Singer, perpetual
. sergeant-at-arms of the legisla
ture. Once, shortly after Singer
'began his service as a house
doorkeeper, he dropped into the
seat beside him on the interur
ban, and asked Jay if he could
help him get a job in the state
treasurer'-off ice. Jay asked him
about his qualifications for such
a job, and then inquired why he
wanted it. Joe's reply was:
"When I was a boy in Russia
my grandfather told me to get a
job-where the money was, and
said, 'You never can tell what
might happen.. " . ;
Of Judge Henry McGinn of
Multnomah county, anecdotes of
whom are legends in legal cir
cles, he told this story. It seems
that j a couple by the name of
Rosenbaum was having domestic
difficulty and , the- wife sued the
husband fnr divorce. Her lawyer
came, before Judge McGinn with
request for an order keeping the
husband from the premises, .say
ing he was making serious
threats against the woman.
' "What did you say his name
was? inquired Judge McGinn.
"Rosenbaum, your honor, re
plied counsel.
Petition denied." said the
.' judge. "Now if his name was
Maloney I'd grant it; but Rosen
baum, hell do a lot of talking,
but he won't do anything.
.. The judge had his own ideas
about the Jews and the Irish.
Y7orH Order

. Traveling by Pacific Grey
hound these days is a little bet
ter than the overland crossing
by covered wagon or immigrant
railroad train, but not without
its experiences. In the seat
ahead of me Saturday were i
young couple, a sailor and an at
tractive young woman, who
wore what looked like a bridal
gardenia. At any rate you could
see Cupid's darts shooting from
her eyes whenever she looked at
her trim companion. "When all
- the world is young my dear-
In the seat behind sat an el
derly woman, with her husband
across the aisle. Suddenly she
leaned forward and asked, "Are
. you, men doctors? "No, I re
ponded, as I could see that my
companion was certainly not
professional ' man. Whereupon
she thrust a glass Jar forward
between the chair seats and
- said: This is what the doctors
took out of my kidney five
months ago. See, if s - shaped
like a bear, with a head and
. feet". U.
A little later she got off the
stage, clutching in her hand
, wellworn paper bag containing
the precious Jar." What
world!" i

department must almost automat
ically narrow its field of .winter
maintenance to the strictly neces
sary jobs along the , 1300 miles of
roadway it - tends, according to
County Engineer N. C. Hubbs.
Because-there was no new con
struction program this past sum
mer, road and bridge crews have
kept the maintenance work up-
to-date and were ready when the
first fall rains came, most of the
drainage . ditches having been
cleared and culverts checked or
cleaned.
Nine road patrol graders, which
operate during the winter months
only, are taking to the road to
clear 'and respread gravel so that
standing pools of water on oil sur
faced or graveled roads may be
kept to a minimum.
Five men on a bridge crew con
tinue bridge repairs through . the
