"A NEWSPAPER IS A CITIZEN Of ITS COMMUNITY'
TEA BETWEEN BULLETS
The world is inclined to laugh at the Brit
ish insistence on tea. Whole canteen cars,
equipped principally with tea to be sold at a
penny a cup, are being shipped to the West
ern Front to keep the Tommies happy.
But in this dogged determination to pre
serve the tried and true may lie the very key
to the solidity of the British empire. The
soldier who sips his afternoon tea In a dug
out and the Briton who dresses for dinner in
the jungle keep England what it is one of
the greatest powers in the world. These are
the same people who love their democratic
traditions and the heritage of liberty too well
to trade them for hollow ideologies.
We in America are like that. We're not
tea-drinkers, but we're addicted to freedom.
In a 6ense, we learned that from England.
Most of our colonists were British to the core
before an arbitrary monarch tried to deprive
them of the rights the people back home en
joyed. As long as there are enough people
who insist on having something to say about
their way of life, dictatorship won't be able
to get a foothold.
TIME FOR THE CLIMAX
Most people love a good mystery, but they
like to reach the solution before the intri
cacies of the plot bore them to death.
Most of us have enjoyed the suspence of
the third term issue. Everyone has ventured
a qualified prediction, even if he had no
more to go on than the number of prunes in
the President's breakfast dish. But interest
is beginning to thin, and irritation is likely to
set in at any moment.
The fun of speculating is wearing out. The
time is over-ripe for an announcement. The
jokes are getting hollow, and the candidates
who are waiting feverishly to try for their
first term are getting sulky.
It is just about time for us to reach the
climax, whether the answer is yes or.no.
We're going to have to know sooner or later
anyway.

WASHINGTON LETTER
By JOHN W. KELLY
(Regster-Guard Washington Reporter)
WASHINGTON, D. C Jan. 6. In the "think
ing" stage is a plan to abolish the state public util
ities commissioner in Oregon in order that Paul J.
Raver, administrator of Bonneville, can dictate re
sale rates of Bonneville power.
Government ownership advocates are not satis
fied with the state of Oregon rather than the federal
government (through an agency) fixing the schedule
of rates which customers of utilities must pay. Ar
gument: If the Interstate Commerce Commission, a
federal agency, can fix rates for railroads, It is Just
as proper and logical for a specific federal agency to
designate rates for electric energy.
Drastic as the idea may appear. It is already
being started in Kentucky where, at the present ses
sion of the general assembly, a measure is proposed
to repeal the laws creating a public service commis
sion. The charge is made that this movement in
Kentucky Is inspired by officials, engineers and at
torneys of TVA.
The Oregon situation has been attracting atten
tion In the national capital because of the PUD elec
tions, with emphasis on the rejection of a PUD in
Lane county and the allegations that men on Bonne
ville payroll Insist on the administrator fixing re
sale rates even to the municipally owned plant at
Eugene. Ardent advocates of TVA are grumbling
that Bonneville Is trying to cut under the TVA
rates and that this shouldn't be done, for TVA Is
supposed to be the "yardstick" for the nation. These
advocates also hint that the officials of Bonneville
re attempting to attract Industries to the Columbia
river region with cheap power which might other
wise nestle down In the TVA principality.
This Is the same squawk that was made by con
gressmen when they learned TVA was attempting
to take Industries (and payrolls) from their own
districts and they denounced the practice.
e e e
A scout for this column has Just returned from
the deep south with this report: Among democrats
there Is resentment against the new deal for several
reasons, one being they think Mr. Roosevelt has
been listening to too many "fellow travelers" an
other, too much attention given colored people by
Lady Eleanor. Republicans like Senator Taft be
cause his father once lived at Athens; they regard
Dewey as Inexperienced. When Oregon's McNary
was mentioned as a dark horse the response was
good, for McNary's progressive record Is known and
the fact that his pioneer parents were natives of
'Kentucky was decidedly In his favor.
Continues the scout: Cactus Jack Garner can
carry the south, so ran Secretary of State Cordell
Hull of Tennessee, with Postmaster Gen. Jim Farley
on the tail of the ticket. Neither Warner nor Hull,
although part of the new deal administration are
themselves new dealers. The deep south is defin
itely against another term for Franklin Delano
Roosevelt and any new dealer he might wish as a
successor.
e e e
With the zeal of the old Anti-Saloon League the
colored polilicos are preparing to cash In on their
very Important voting strength in the northern
states. A safe prediction is that the house of repre
sentatives will pass the anti-lynching bill before
the nominating conventions, hut the measure will
be stymied in the senate by southern senators, led
by Texas Tom Connallq. Ten percent of the entire
population of the United States is colored and the
new deal won these voters away from the repub
lican party.
To the 'White House this week went a request,
almost a demand, that the president appoint SO
Negroes as cadets to the naval academy at Annap
olis; that 5000 Negroes be enlisted for training in
the marine corps and the navy; that the army train
100 Negroes for officers In the air corps: that these
Negroes be stationed at the Virgin Islands and that
one of the proposed 45,000 ton battleships be named
Booker T. Washington.
This interesting Washington Immigration Com
missioner Houtaling (he married a cousin of the
president), has revoked the permits of a number of
Czechs who were to teach the 800 Americans already
employed by the Jan Bala shoe factory because CIO
objected. Bata is building a $10,000,000 plant a few
miles from the capital, will employ thousands unless
new dealers crack down on him. Roosevelt boys

Elliott and Son F. D. Jr., both had teeth knocked

Most popular dish In the house office restaurant

tuarant. Democratic members have been dying off
since the special session. Survivors lose no time In

Port landers Seeking
Lower Commercial
Rates For Power
PORTLAND, Jan. 6. ) The
Bonneville service committee, a
group of business men favoring a
Portland public utility district,
asked the state public utilities
commissioner Friday to order im
mediate cuts in Portland's com
mercial power rates.
The committee's formal request
charged the Portland General and
Northwestern Electric companies
had sufficient information to per
mit rate reductions before May 1
as ordered by the commissioner.
Portland's commercial rates "are
unreasonably and unjustly dis
criminatory, and among the high
est . . . in Oregon," the committee
charged. It also criticized the
recent reduction in residential
rates, tentatively approved by
Commissioner Ormond R. Bean.
