Now It Can Be Told
We are getting , some of the "now-it-can-be-;
told" material. . 1 :
Some week ago The Statesman offered the
I opinion that there was aome validity to Jap
I reports of damage to Arnerieart warships. Now
we are told that the great earner 1 raniuin
was badly damaged- by Jap armor-piercing
bombs. While the ship was saved through the
gallantry of its crew, it suffered heavy losses
in personnel and was put out of commission
for months. The Franklin was hit on March 19.
. On January 6 the battleship New Mexico
i had its navigating bridge knocked out witiv
an aerial bomb which killed the captain and
j 27 other officers and men. This was the time
I when Lt. Gen. Herbert Lumsden, British ob
i server, and William! Chickering, Time corres
j pondent, were killed. Their deaths were re-
ported but little mention was made of the,
damage which forced the ship back to Pearl
7i Harbor for repairs. I

' military security, but the Japs keep score on
j their hits the same as we do; and our navy
S men know when a j ship is put out of action.
: The truth is that . our repair yards are busy
all the time patching holes in armor plate
and repairing battle! damage. We do not know
that the public has een deprived of much es
sential information when reports are withheld
for a few months; but the people ought to know
that waging the navy's war in the Pacific is
costly in men and in ships. Off Okinawa our
fleet has taken a hard beating from the swarms
of Jap planes. And it will continue to suffer
punishment as it ploughs a path in the sea for
the American advance on Tokyo.
Hitting Jap Oil Plants
Bombers over Japan are aiming at the same
objectives as over Germany. Chief among these
targets are the synthetic oil plants. Now that
Japan is steadily j being cut off from the oil
fields of Burma and Java and Borneo, it is
forced to depend "more and more on synthetic
fuel. In raids last week American planes wrecked-or
damaged oil storage depots and fuel sta
tions. The effect is to impair Japan's ability
to wage war with weapons requiring petroleum
for fuel. Among them are airplanes and naval
vessels.
Japan's estimated requirements for petroleum
in the early stages of the war were 33,000,000
barrels tf year. Of this, 10,000,000 was produced
In eight synthetic' plants. While the reduction
of the . Jap fleet diminishes the demand for
petroleum, the enemy still would need to import
oil' from" the south' If it were available. Burma
is lost; the Aussies are taking the Tarakan
fields near Borneo;: and sea lanes are insecure.
With American planes knocking out large syn
thetic oil plants at home Japan faces the same
fate as the Germans: grounding of planes and
stalling of tanks for lack of fuel.
Dogs as Killers
The killing of a woman in Florida by a pack
of bull pit terriers is a reversal of the usual
role of dogs. Rated as man's; best friend, dogs
very rarely attack and kill a human being,
without provocation. Recently a dog romped
too playfully over a baby and caused the baby's
death, but that was not a case of vicious attack.
Against this record is the long one of faithful
ness where many a dog has risked his life for
his master.' -
There are breeds; to be sure, which are
-Inclined to vicious traits. Their control is a
matter of discipline or of restraint. Some, like
police dogs, are trained for special guard duty,
but very seldom is a dog like this permitted to
.run at large. .- .;:!,"
The Florida pack of 26 were all put to death,
as they deserved; and the sad experience should
warn dog-breeders of the necessity of keeping
those with savage inclinations confined or under
leash. But the incident in Florida should noj
be used as an excuse for setting out dog" poison.

OUR F1IST WOMAN CITIZEN
In the honor that has come to Marian Lowry
Fischer from her friends in the Zonta dub, all
of her associates In The Register-Guard take pride.
Since she came to this town as a University student,
- Marian has worked for this newspaper, but it
would be more adequate to &y that she has worked
constantly for Lane county and Eugene.
- With all her vigor, Marian denies that there is
any such thing as a "first citizen, bue we cannot
let her deny that for many years she has been
one of our foremost citizens in influence. It would
be difficult to mention any activity pr project for
the improvement of this community which has
not come to Marian for aid and got it.
"If we can get Marian Lowry to help us
with some Ytories: and pictures ..."
. It is a familiar formula. However, this is not
v the time or place to try to recount the history of
Marian Lowry Fischer. In a few weeks, she will
leave m, to Join her husband whose business (radio
KSLM) has taken him to $alem. A great many
people are going to miss Marian her keen interest
in everything and everybody in this community, .

which cut through every kind of fraud or sham
and though Salem may be her home henceforth,
she has made her place forever as "a first citizen

When Zonta ' announced its selection of "first

old picture of her and. wailing about how for the

Reporter Keeps Pledgi ,
With Edward Kennedy's filing of a dispatch
on the German surrender timers was general
protest among newspaper workers against his
violation -of an implied ; pledge of confidence.
Now there will be universal .support extended
to Albert Deutsche Washington correspondent
for PM, who refuses to violate a confidence
even in the face of contempt proceedings by a
congressional committee; Deutsch liad written
a series of articles, content! of which were
sharply critical of the veterans' administration.
Called up before a house investigating commit
tee Deutsch was asked whip his informants
were. He refused to name them, asserting he
had obtained his information with the assurance
that he would not divulge names. Among his
informants were five employes of the VA.
Deutsch said he was fcoundj by his personal
integrity and professional ethics not to divulge
names of those who supplied him with informa
tion. The committee then instituted contempt
proceedings against hint j
It is standard practice and conventional ethics
among newspaper men to protect sources of
information. This operates 'definitely In the
public interest. If every ireporter were required
to tell the names of those furnishing him in
formation he would get little of the kind which
most needs publicizing! Stories of graft and
crime and political misdeals are often published
which are factually accurate; but the reporter
does not disclose who tipped him off or gave
him the story. Those giving him the facts realize
this and realize further that the reporter if
he is any man at alii; will not welch under
pressure. f;
The house committee may proceed; it may
put Deutsch in jail; but it vfill never get him
" to break the confidence reposed in him. Instead
of jumping on the reporter that committee
should move more directly to get at facts for
itself and to apply remedies that appear to be
needed. The VA is certainly coming in for
sharp criticism on the way t is administering

Refresher for Lawyers
The Oregon state bar is! making definite
plans to assist members of the legal profession
who have been absent on j military duty to
brush up before reentering j legal practice Jon
their return from wari The! har plans to set
up a School of Review in the law. It will last
for oner month and will offer five hours of
lectures per day; The refresher courses will
cover all the important law school subjects.
The school will not compete with existing law
schools as it is only temporary, giving service
men a chance to review their law before hang
ing out 1 their shingles againj. !
A tuition of $80 will be charged for the Course
and the school will be one to qualify the vet
erans attending it for financial assistance under
the GI bill. t j
The state bar is to be commended for thus
moving to help lawyer-veterans to effect a
successful readjustment' to civil life. .
Eastern Oregon farmers are pushing out their
vests these days and talking about the "million

a good crop of winter wheat and will improve
prospects for other crops and make more grass

have no time to stick their thumbs in the arm

That controllins motive was aooarent in Pre
paration for the D-day .invasion of France. That
operation was held back' until every possible pre
caution against failure had been taken. Face to
face with the full weight of j the wehrmacht the
allies had to be sure they had the power in' the
air and on the ground to drive through to a rela
tively quick victory. Otherwise they might be bled
white by losses,' short of triumph. ! I
The only alternative proposed was reliance upon
air power alone to bring Germany to her knees.
Prime Minister Churchill at pne early stage told
congress in Washington:! thatj idea was at least
worth a trial but not at .the expense of preparations
to do the job the hard way. j
In the aftermath of the European victory no
doubt there will arise debate as to whether, in
the light of what is now known about the bombing
damage on Germany, further idelay in crossing the
channel in force might; not have been justified.
In the inner sanctum of the allied high command
application of what was learned in Germany of
battle technique in air and on the ground to the
circumstances of the war with) Japan is in progress.
It probably will be months before events beyond
the Pacific tend to reveal the decisions already
taken or to come; but even j now it seems clear,
that air power is due to' get another chance. t
There are air minded veterans who believe
Japan could be knocked out of the war by air, or
at least so greatly softened that the final occupation
of the Japanese islands ! by ground troops would
be at relatively small casualty cost
They contend that even the! overwhelming allied
air superiority ratio against Germany will be sur
passed once the fun weight of Anglo-American air
power is deployed in the east f, action. They argue,
also, that Japan both in dispersion of her war
plants., and the meagerness of her internal trans
portation and communication systems is more vul
nerable than wa : Germany.
. The test of what the Japanese Can take from
the air is certainly; coming at ino very distant date.
Redeployment of allied l,air power against Japan
.on a scale of destructive power far beyond any
thing Germany suffered at its; worst is in too close
prospect to doubt it The results could go far to

The story of "art for art's

wholly delightful book. ;
W. While it begins and ends with

it is really the story as if Un
folded, pathetic, dramatic and
brilliant across the channel in
England.
Strangely enough, as it shows
the British public clinging with
a stodgy obstinacy to Victorian
idealism and bitterly hostile to a
historically significant section of
art and letters, it gives thejef-t
feet of reducing Britain cultur
ally to an insular and provincial

quite a few Americans, or itnen

All inquiries; were -pushed a
side out mere with the explana
tion that this hew world labor
power, called the World Trade
Union Congress, ; was merely
looking for reflected publicity
from its proximity to tha i con
ference, or something similarly
inconsequential. j ;
It is no wonder; the story: was
hidden securely beneath a rub

cause it would; have disclosed a
coup de conference planned by
Mr. Hillman and his Russian as
sociates a coup which ' was
squelched completely in a se
cret meeting of the conference
steering committee. : Despite in-
tervention by no less a power
than Molotov himself. These are
the facts: ' 1 j 1 j
The Oakland labor assembly
was completely under control of
Hillman and the Russians, with
the British riding quietly behind
them. The head of the Russian
labor delegation at Oakland .was
also an official delegate for: Rus
sia in the San Francisco peace
meeting , and the pipeline be
tween. : - j : ;j
Through him the Hillman
crowd worked up -a program
whereby they would all get in
to the conference and into the
permanent peace setup by being
established as the: group to han
dle world labor problems. !j
They succeeded in getting the
economic committee of the!
con-
ference to approve their entry as
consultants. The economic ! com
mittee includes strong represen
tation of smaller nations, partic
ularly Latin America. J
A resolution; carrying out this
purpose was handed by the eco
nomic committee to ' the steer
ing committee which is composed
of all nations. (After some warm

tee of the conference decided -t
would not even go into the mat
ter thoroughly and defeated the
resolution.
When Hillman saw this com
ing he got Molotov to champion
his cause, and it was the! Rus
sian foreign minister who press
ed the matter as far as it went
in the steering committee, i
By his adroitness, Hillman
thus outslicked himself and dis
closed his hand. That Molotov
would .champion his cause was
all-too-obvious evidence to ev
eryone on the inside that their
fears and suspicions about Hill
man's trade union congress had
solid ground that it was more
Russian than worldly. .
A few days later the Oakland
meeting quietly adjourned with
out taking any noticeable ac
tion and Mer. Hillman went off
to southern California for a rest

council (May 8) that world la
bor be represented in the future
world order by the international ;
labor office, a successful creature
of the old League of Nations.
Shrewdly he did not seek the ;i
place for his own AFL world
group which is represented by an ;i
organization known as the International-Federation
of Trades
Unions.
He did not seek to steal for
himself the world authority and
power which he would deny to :'
the CIO crowd, but would leave
it to an established League of
Nations organization. His posi
tion was impregnable.
I hear that even the British
' have become suspicious of Hill- '
man's effort to align with the
communists in a front which ;;
; would in some ways be as pow- ;
erful as the peace setup of the (
i nations and if Hillman's coup !
had gone through able to influ- ;

The Russian unions are not free

Hillman, by this effort coming
atop his domestic electoral ac

Washington, particularly in con

No doubt he will try to come
back aad continue to build world

international unions, but the
chances that he could become a
great world control influence (as
he : tried domestically) seem to
