Plight of True liberals'
Vice .President Wallace and Sen. Pepper of
Florida have met to plan the continuance of the
fight for liberalism in -government. They will
need to plan and to fight, for they have lost
the vehicle of their escent to power. The bosses,
as Wallace well knows, have repossessed the
democratic party, party bosses, city machine
bosses. As time, foes on the "true liberals" will
find out they have been sold down the river.
The defeat of Wallace in the democratic con
vention and the nomination of Sen. Truman in
his stead marked the take-over of the party by
the politicians displacing the reformers. The
latter will do their utmost to think they are
till in power, but they will find that, unless
they can make their leadership effective in
congress as well as in the party convention,
they will be in a minority status.
During the next four years, if Roosevelt
is reelected, we will see a real battle for the
succession. Roosevelt himself will be concerned
with world affairs. There is little chance he'
would want or could win a fifth term. So the
aspirants for power will be in continuous con
flict. And the struggle will naturally lie be
tween the old-time politicians and the "true
liberals." . ;
Mr. Wallace himself seems to sense this fact,
and is aiming at leadership of the left wing.

only defiant of his opposition but an outline
for his own political program. The right wing
of the party, so long in the shadow, has no such
young and aggressive leadership, but soon will
aspire to it without a doubt.
Meantime the "true liberals' to whom party
ties mean virtually nothing, will be left home
less. They will vote for Roosevelt out of mem
ories for the grand crusade. It may end up they
are rejects from the democratic party which
they captured and ruled ruthlessly fpr a time.
Differentials Preserved
The interstate commerce commission has de
nied a. petition of Washington lumber-mills fpr
removal of the rate differential favoring Ore
gon mills on lumber shipments to California and
southwestern states. The differential ranges
from two cents a hundred pounds to 17 cents.
The decision of the commission effectively pre
serves for Oregon mills a rate advantage in sales
of lumber for the area mentioned, which is a
large consumerof northwest lumber.
In normal times however the differential does
not shut out Washington mills from this mar
ket, because Puget Sound and Grays harbor
and Willapa harbor and Columbia river mills
ship by water to Sair Pedro or Wilmington and
distribute from docks there. Until shipping is
restored all shipping is done by rail, but with
demand as heavy "as it Is the Washington mills
will not suffer much.l The buyer ihe govern
mentwill pay the freight, and specify destinations.
"Fluid" Battle of France
Four years ago last spring at the height of
the battle of France, some French general said:
The battle of position is over; the, battle of
movement is begun."-That was when Franc
found its dependence on the Maiginot line Vain,
when the German spearheads were racing
through French towns and villages, with amaz
ing speed, when the French army was endeavor
ing to get out of its fixed positions and stem the
onrushing tide in a battle of maneuver. )
France is now seeing a repetition bit thai sit
uation. There was fear two weeks ago that our
campaign in Normandy was falling into a stale
mate, that our armies would have to fight a war
of attrition. But when Gen. Bradley's troops
blew out the plug at St Lo andj the exploited
the break-through of the German lines the
"battle of movement" began. Since then action
has been what the military men call "fluid."
And "fluid" is correct, for the Yanks have
been rolling toward Paris as though they; had
a furlough there. Le MJns, important junction
point, has been reached' and passed. There are
no fixed defenses Intervening before Paris. Un
less the Germans can reform and cut off or
blunt the American, spearhead, the allies will
stand soon at the very gates of the; one-time
proud French capital. ? ;
The Canadians by their own powerful at
tack are pressing the Germans back i and join
ing in the race to Paris. The dual; thrust is send
ing the Germans in recoil and help prevent
their reforming for the defense of Paris.'; j
Once again the "battle of France lis joined,
but this tune the liberation, not the conquest
A Liberty ship is to be named after Lunsford
Richardson, founder of Vick Chemical company.
All who have gotten relief from Vick's Vapo
rub will approve; but will there not be a de
mand for naming a ship after Lydia Pinkham

Question to Court
An action has been started :in the Marion
county circuit: court attacking the I proposed
"little Townsend" constitutional:! amendment as ,
itself unconstitutional on the grounds that ; it
embraces more than one amendment while the
constitution provides that when twcj or more
amendments are submitted they 'shal te so sub
mitted that each amendment shall be voted on
separately. - A !
Since the question is now before the court it
is not proper to comment on the merits or de
merits of the case. The court sis the proper
body to appeal to f or a decision. It the court
says the amendment is in proper form then it
can be argued out in the fall campaign. If the
court decides that it is faulty then the propon
ents will be spared the trouble and expense of
a campaign. The court can pass on the! constitu
tional question involved. The pfoplefcan vote,
if the measure is on the ballot, on the question
of whether the measure is wise- or not.

FAITHFUL UNTO DEATH
This is the story of a Marshfield dog ... a simple
' tale of silent worship and heart-breaking grief.
The dog has no pedigree, boasts no ribbons for
I honors won on outstanding points. His one enduring
' quality is loyalty . . . the kind of loyalty that never
once haswavered in all his 10 years of life.
Two years ago this dog's young master Joined the
army air corps. For weeks the dog laid by the gate
awaiting his return, leaping up unexpectedly, ears
cocked, with each approaching step. Day by day ,
this silent devotion drew him closer to the parents
of the boy, until the three became inseparable. This
' in a measure seemed to assuage his grief, but still,
only at night would he leave off his watchful wait
; ing at the gate to slink whining to his blankets.
Recently the parents, of the young flier moved
' from Marshfield and the faithful old dog was left
with relatives to begin even a longer and more
" heart-breaking vigil. - -
No longer could he be coaxed from his place at
the gate., Food placed before him went untouched.
, Occasionally he would take a few' laps of water,
) nothing, more. Deep misery crept 'Into his eyes, re-
fleeting the slow, deathly hurt In his aging heart.
.- Night found him whimpering as he closed aching
'. eyes to.which no sleep would come. - -
.Four days of this . . . then the parents of the boy
were contacted. They came for the dog. And as their
car turned the corner half a block away he was up
and over the gate like a catapult. His whimpering
' turned to half-human shrieks as he sped to meet
- the can Through - an open door he plunged and
onto the back' seat, where he cowered, whining as
' though fearful that something would again tear him
from the things he loved. : , .
That night in the ;new home he ate, wolfing his'
food in avage glups; That night he drank i lap
; ping the water . with feverish, haste. That night he

Substantially a third of the Seine and Loire ba
sins are now within the 200-mile double; arc of the

the channel coast to that of thei Bay of Biscay,

Brittany peninsulas." V vf If fs
By nazl admission Canadians dpsing jin on Fa
laise to the north and Americans thundering up
the Loire valley beyond captured Le Mans in the
south were within 100 miles or less of Paris. The
distant thunder of their guns must already be audi
ble In suburbs of the city when j westerly winds
sweep up the great valleys. . " I
In other wars that far rumbling of gunfire has
come to Paris on the breath of bitter ! east winds.
It has heralded disaster and doom as it rolled hear
er and nearer. Now it approaches on. the kindly
wings of the westerlies to tell of coming liberation.
It is not yet certain that allied strategy does not
now aim at an early and even more decisive vic
tory in France than outsing German invaders from
Pi.. ;;- -4;.: I ll , - kr:
A crisis for the German army, stubbornly resist
ing on the north and north-center flank in the-Seine-Loire
theater and weakly reeling backward
under Yankee armored hammer blows in the south,
is fast developing.
The scythe-like American sweep up the Loire val
ley could be pointed at Paris itself, or headed to
by-pass the city and cross the Seine far inland
to outflank its whole course to the sea. It could
begin curling northeastward to get between the
main German army and Paris and the Seine and
destroy it in the field between a British-Canadian
anvil and a many-headed American armored ham
mer. .;V;":;;V!''Hi:i,;i f jt"':: '7 i
There seems no question now that the foe In
France has been and is being not only: out-numbered,
out-gunned, out-planned, and i out-fought;
but out-guessed and out-generaled jfcta well. He can-:
' not even now know the broad strategic 'design gov
erning the ever widening and deepening allied
attack. ' - i i
That he has neither the troops Inor ; materiel to
cope with so vast, fast and fluid n operation as
confronts him Is made patent In every front line
dispatch. That the nazified German command in
France is hampered' by fanatical' holding orders
from Berlin that military experience cannot Jus
tify, as well as being driven by Hitler's Pintuitive"
leadership to suicidal and futile counterattacks, is'
more than indicated. ,-.-f ,J,- s
The upshot could be utter wreckage of the whole
German army in growing peril of being trapped
against the Seine or outflanked east of that stream
before it can reach It for a stand; With both the
strategic and tactical initiative in allied hands; the
possibility of a total German military disaster in
the west Is too clearly apparent forjseasoed enemy
commanders and staff specialists not to ! realize it
By every military axiom a general German re-
"treat behind the Seine was called for immediately
once the allied break-through at Avrahches ended
4he stalemate and the enormous freight of allied
armored power poured into France across the Nor
mandy beaches was revealed. - - :

s What this; plainly shows Is
jthat the argument is dead.,;Thls

proving the sequence, and very
probably that was the plan.
I believe however there is a
larger' meaning in this frame
up, that it reveals the settled
purpose of the nazl gangsters
never to surrender and never to
allow any other responsible
group In Germany: to surrender.
The course they choose is victory
or chaos. That of course has
been their alternative from the
very first, gilded for the people
with the bright promise of splen
did victory. Latterly Dr. Goeb
bels has definitely said that if
the Hitlerites fall they will take
Europe down In ruin with them.
I do not think we should re
gard this as mere rhetoric
George Axelsson, Swedish jour
nalist, writing to the New York
Times, says:
This nazl -vengeance will first
be visited on the unoccupied
countries and, in due course, on
the reich itself."
Reports come that the Ger
mans are applying a "scorched
.earth' policy in East Prussia, in
the path of the Russian Invaders.
The worst threat is not to
buildings and factories and pow
er plants, though the resulting
damage would greatly disrupt
Europe's economic life, but rath
er to political institutions, par
ticularly within Germany. The
occupied countries can reestab
lish their governments when
they are liberated, and most of
them have traditions of popular
or constitu 1 1 o n a 1 government
which can be revived. What will
happen in Germany, though, of
fers a threat to workable peace.
Looking ahead we can" foresee
no general surrender by Hitler,
or his Himmler-Goerlng-Goeb-bels
triumvirate. The now
cowed army dares not surren

vidual groups. Internal govern

It win probably be very dif
ficult for the victorious allies to
establish a new civil government
in Germany. The non-nazl lead
ers have been quite thoroughly
purged, and the survivors of the
older political dispensation have
been so supine they command
no confidence. In Italy there had
remained a fairly active opposi-

Hilary St George Saunders is
an economical man. He has been
behind some five fictitious writ
ing names, either as the whole
or half of a writing team. His
"Combined Operations," a Brit
ish government publication was
a 1943 Book-of-the-Month choice
on this side, and a corking job,
too. It was as a result of this
American success that Saunders
came to America for six weeks
in 1943, and those six weeks (as
-you might expect) produced stfll
another book. This he calls "Pio
neers! O Pioneers!"

extraordinary Willingness to ab-
- sorb fact Six; weeks is an ab
surdly short time in whkh to

' digging at this job, Mr. Saunders
seems to have relaxed and let
the country flow over him. He
has put down what he remem
bered, and it makes a strangely
apt and intelligent text The
book is, in fact, triumphantly
honest One senses this long be-,

and the succeeding six pages
there is no text, but only this
note: .
"My description my con

editorial writer of The Chicago
Tribune, and of what I saw in
Cicero has been omitted In def

legal proceedings."
; Mr. Saunders was impressed,
but not daunted, by the size of
the country; and its distances.
He has a good; word for Holly

Francisco, which appears to be
his favorite American city. He

Of the three groups the Cha-
" morros are in the best condition.
They were largely farmers. More
than 100 members of one family
came In yesterday after living
for months on a single 80-acre
plot and then spending two
weeks In a series of caves to
' which the skinny, 90-pound head
of the house, "elder brother" Ig
nacio, 58, led them when the fir
ing made the farm untenable.
Living in the country seems to
have hardened the Chamorros
before the attack, so they took
the subsequent travail- better
thanr the town-living Japanese.
Also, .the Chamorros declare
this must be taken with certain
reservations they are delighted
the Americans came. - ,
' The Chamorros are separated
from the other races by barbed
wire and are making themselves
as comfortable as possible. They
' keep their camp clean and sup
ply working parties willingly for
cleaning up towns, burying the
enemy dead or picking ripe pro
duce in ttie fields -
Navy camp officers govern the
Chamorros - through their own
chief and a few Interpreters, such
as Vicente Guerreo, 4J, who
learned his English - wdrking
around the Yap island cable sta-
tion during the-German occupa-
. tion. Later i Guerrero farmed
here. - I '
Another leader is Joseph Pan
geiinan, who wears a wide straw
hatr Without difficulty, Pangeli
nan made the transfer from in
terpreting between Chamorros
and Americans. ' Pangelinan
' speaks excellent swift English
but asserts he learned it all from
American! phonograph records
and never had a chance to speak
it until a week ago.
He says, with a smile, "that's
how I happen to know so many
American songs."
, In the Japanese camp there is
misery, fear and downhearted
.ness. I I
But in the j Chamorros camp
even those who are dirtiest and
most underfed seem on the sur
face to be fairly happy. They
sing as they cook salvaged Jap
anese fish, rice, soy beans and
, American t rations over family
stoves. When the working par
ties go out they wave at other
prisoners,-grin widely at- the
grimy marines moving forward.
