ROOSEVELT ON STATE OF NATION
President Roosevelt's message on "the
state of the nation" does not add much to his
earlier "fireside talk" to the people of the
United States except the promise that "a
greater portion" of our defense expenditures
will ie financed with additional taxes, less
with borrowing.
We are to provide arms and supplies for
Britain, China, Greece and such other democ
racies as may elect to resist the Axis powers.
We will not declare war, and if Hitler or any
. other dictator sees fit to declare war it will
be "unilateral" his war, and, we hope, "his
funeral."
We will not "give" to our friends and
allies; we will loan or lease and Mr. Roose
velt suggests they be allowed to pay us in
kind or in other good at later date. The
Congress is asked to provide Mr. Roosevelt
. with authority and funds to go ahead with
this program which amounts to this:
Win the war before it comes to our
shores; figure out the details later!
A man on Willamette street was asking
. if Mr. Roosevelt weren't exaggerating the
"physical danger" to the United States.
There is, of course, the possibility that
the collapse which now seems imminent in
, Italy might spread to Germany. There is the
possibility that Germany will fail in this
spring's tremendous drive and nobody can
tell yet whether it will be aimed at Suez,
Gibraltar or London.
There is the possibility of disintegration
in Germany, once it dawns on the German
people that this war is not to be won quickly.
But there is still the possibility that Ger
many will be the victor in this summer's
campaigns, that the coming fall will find
them astride the British "life line" at Suez
; or Gibraltar or .even in London, and if that
should happen, there is a CERTAINTY.
That CERTAINTY is that with the Axis
; powers, in control of Europe, Africa and a
' large part of Asia, it would be only a ques-
; tion of HOW SOON for us in this hemisphere.
; So long as the British Empire stands we have
' en our side what Dr. Warren D. Smith calls
"the Mineral Axis" of the world; we have
; available most of the world's raw materials
; and supplies.
As Mr. Roosevelt pointed out in his little
, lesson in history and economics, the collapse
of Britain would put into Hitler's hands the
materials for world conquest. He has the
man power, the techniques. We know what
his aims are.
No, we regard the early end of this war
as something to pray for (despite the eco
nomic reactions which will be terrific) but
it is not to be counted on. Our position is
not very heroic, and we still think Mr. Roose
velt has been pretty tardy in putting out
facts and shaping policy; there is even a cer
tain irony in his use of the epithet "appcaser."
However, the message to Congress is a
fairly accurate statement of our danger. The
future, if Hitler wins, is entirely predictable;
the future, even if we win is not rosy, but our
choice must be what it is to try to save an
other chance for democracy.
EUGENE'S SAFETY RECORD BAD
It is not flattering to Eugene to talk to
Stanley Church, the Oregon state safety di
rector, and Sid King, his assistant. In the
last year, among Oregon cities in the bracket
between 10,000 and 25,000 population, Eugene
has made the least progress in traffic safety.
In 1939, we had 857 accidents (reported);
121 injui irs; 3 killings. In 1940, we had 1,095
accidents; 153 injuries, 3 killings. We pro
duced a 23 per cent increase in accidents, and
if injuries and killings have not risen in the
same proportion that is only luck.
"In most cases," says Mr. Church, "the
only difference between a smash in which
only a fender is torn loose and one in which
somebody goes to the morgue or the hospital
is one of inches and seconds."
The Eugene traffic accident record is the
reason why Dr. Grant Beardsley has called
together representatives of all civic groups
to form a Safety Council. In the last year we
had energetic safety campaigns under the
auspices of Kiwanis, the Junior Chamber,
the American Legion but something more is
needed.
Church and King have suggested a co
ordinated safety movement along three lines:
1-Eiiglnetrinn that i Hi constant im
provement ot street construction and street
iRnlng and lighting at point known to be
dangerous.
2. Education that implies the constant
warning to all ot ui who drive that we are
t responslhle for public safety.
fciktforceinent nd heii taut mcjuj

to be room for considerable bracing.
It will be suggested to Chief Bergman
and the city council that even though our
police force is small, its effectiveness can be
multiplied by "selective patrolling." This
means simply that instead of trying to cover
the whole city at random, the motor patrols
will appear unannounced at various strategic
points each day to round up the speed kings,
the lucky and unlucky dodgers, the operators
of rattletraps and all others who add to traf
fic menace.
It means that in the courts which have
to do with traffic law enforcement there will
be completely impersonal but relentless pun
ishment of offenders. So far as we know
there is very little "ticket fixing" now, and
the prosecution of such cases as force them
selves into court is pretty good, but there are
too many cases which are covered by an easy
going tolerance, merely because "nobody was
hurt very bad."
It will be helpful in Eugene and else
where if the coming legislature permits cities
to set definite and enforceable speed limits
to replace the difficult "basic rule"; the new
super-highway will eventually relieve some
of the downtown congestion, but the prob
lem of traffic safety will not solve itself by
waiting for outside help. It's "our baby."
Italian press says Mussolini's soldiers
have not lost sight of their goal. Must be
looking over their shoulders.
Times are so bad right now that more
people are having to go to work.
You ought to see the autos at busy inter
sections! Especially before you cross the
street.
Some lectures we pay to hear make us
stronger than ever for free speech.
WASHINGTON LETTER
By JOHN W. KELLY
Register-Guard Washington Reporter
WASHINGTON, D. C, Jan. 7 FOR protection ot
the Pacific northwest the United States is prepar
ing to build up a great military establishment in
Alaska. The troops now in the territory are only
a few hundred, but the plans call for thousands.
Ultimately Alaska will be fortified with the
strength of the Hawaiian islands. The territory is
one of immense strategic importance and will be
developed vth this in view.
From Fort Lewis troops are to be sent to Alaska,
reinforcing those already on the scene. There is a
possibility that some of the guardsmen of the 41st
division,- now located at Camp Murray, may be
assigned to northern duty. What is known def
initely, however, is that the movement of troops
will start for Alaska as quickly as cantonments are
prepared and these will be followed by the en
gineers erecting permanent improvements.
Both Civilian Aeronautics Authority and the
army air corps have arranged for development of
airports. It has been demonstrated that fliers can
swoop down to Seattle, Tacoma, Portland, through
the Willamette valley to Medford In a few hours.
The across-Uie-pole Russian fliers did so. From
Alaska it is only a jump to the east to New York,
a trip performed by Wiley Post. The airports being
advanced by the army extend from the Aleutian
islands to the mainland and at Kodiak island.
These have been selected with a view to their
availability in wartime; they have been chosen for
no other reason.
ALL this winter army fliers have been prac
ticing in Alaska, familiarizing themselves with fly
ing conditions which do not exist elsewhere in
the United States. They encounter fog, snow, sleet
and bitter cold. The experimenters are seeking to
overcome these natural conditions by devices on
their planes, such as de-fiosters. Army fliers must
be ready to take the air in good, bad or indifferent
weather. For almost 24 months experiments have
been conducted in the north, but only for the past
year has the subject received serious attention.
The army is steadily building up a force of fliers
which will be without cciual in the world and the
force will be increased as rapidly as possible.
Not all of the preparations are for fliers. War
department Is specializing in equipment and train
ing for troops. Mosquito nets, parkas, skits, white
covering for camouflage, rubber boots, etc. The
troops skiing on Rainier arc destined for the far
north, but they do not know it yet. Cantonments
re now being erected, under difficulties, and when
completed troops will be sent to occupy them,
properly equipped.
DISHING out $2,165,000 for Oregon and
$2,161,000 for Washington for the federal aid
system of highways will not quell the insistancc
of westerners for the construction of military roads.
Federal Works Administrator John M. Carmody,
who made the apportionment a few days ago. marie
a great to-do about states using the funds to build
access roads to encampments and the sites of new
plants; pointed out that the need for these roads
gave them first priority.
Military highway construction in Oregon, par
ticularly, Is a live subject and the highway com
mission and various county courts are waiting for
the next step. The break-down for Oregon is
$1,647,908 for regular aid. $288,383 for secondary
or feeder roads, and $228,715 for grade crossings.
As a side dish Oregon is given $98,839 to con
struct roads on public lands, with Washington re
ceiving $27,853.
ON January 1, 1940, the nearby Alexandria
plant was to be producing torpedoes at capacity;
on January 1, 1941, two sample torpedoes had been
dumped on the transmission belt. Now employed
at the plant are 937 men, to be expanded to 2400
In the near future. When and if the Alexandria
establishment (which is government owned and
operated by the navy) attains full capacity it will
be turning torpedoes out at the rate of three a dav.
Only other navy torpedo plant delivers four a
day.
Admiral Furlong testified in 1937, when asking
for funds to reopen the Alexandria plant, that a
serious shortage existed in torpedoes. The admiral
Informed the house committee that with the two
navy plants working to capacity and not another
destroyer laid down after 1939, the pieent re
quirements for torpedoes would not be met until
1944. Torpedoes are used by destroyers and sub
marines. Two months ago there were 103 sub
marines on hand, 39 being built and 4S 'on order."
There were 198 destroyers, with S. under contract
When Admiral Firlong testified he declared that
if any great demand arose for torpedoes, a new
