OREGON Pioneer Memorials Described As 1941 Pageant Approaches (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) Six Lane Princesses Don Pioneer Garb 1876, while carrying the mail on foot. The rural mail carriers of Oregon have placed this marker on the site of Craig's cabin. Craig helped build the first road up the McKenzie river. A pass in the Blue mountains which he helped discover is named for him. Still another marker at McKenzie Bridge, 50 miles or so from Eu gene, is dedicated to those who blazed a trail over the pass. In 1863, Captain Felix Scott and a group of 50-60 men hacked their way from a distance of four miles or so from Vida over the Pass to eastern Oregon. The task took all summer, but in the fall, they were able to drive 900 cattle over the summit, and nine -wagon loads of supplies. Just south of the overhead cross ing at Springfield junction on the Pacific highway is a marker which ' reads Coryell Pass, Oregon Trail. 1848. Erected by the Lewis and Clark chapter, D.A.R., this marker was given by Mrs. Bruce Bogart of Eugene. Coryell pass has a clear flowing spring and was used by the early pioneers for a camp site. No one lived there in 1846 when Elijah I Bristow came through, but two years later when Mrs. Bristow, her grown children, T. G. Hen dricks and others came through, they found the cabin of Abraham H. Coryell. A deer hung on the ridge pole. From this spot, one may see the mingling of the Middle and the Coast forks of the Willamette river. From there one continue? south to Goshen and up the Wil lamette highway to Pleasant Hill where the Bristow hbme was. established. Four men, one of them Mr. Bristow, set out to find home sites in the spring Of 1846. On the high ground between the twb forks of the river, Bristow is said to have exclaimed, 'What a pleasant hill! This, is my claim!' Here he built the first permanent dwelling in Lane county. Pleasant Hill can boast also the first school, the first church and the first ceme tery in Lane county. For all these Mr. Bristow donated the land. Part of the chimney of the original cabin still stands and is appro priately marked. Susannah Gebbert Bristow, Eli jah's wife, was the daughter of a soldier of the American Revolu tion. She was the mother of 15 children. She and her husband lie side by side in the Pleasant Hill cemetery. (This account leaves us at GOshen from where the trail will be taken up next week over the Pacific Highway.) ....

This annual trek to Hart moun tain was started in 1932 and in the years since, more than 400 men have been initiated into the mys tic order of the Antelope which asks no dues, requires no obliga tions and welcomes all who are seeking a life, "Far away from my wife Where my fears and my woes fade away, Where in ornery ease, I can do as I please, And waste my existence in. play.

Welles turned the question aside as hypothetical. Extreme difficulties existed for the United States or Great Britain to get any aid to Russia. From this country, materials presum ably would have to go via the Pacific to the Russian port of Vladivostock. Japan's position in the new lineup thus became a matter of increased importance. Negotiations Carried On The United States for several months carried on negotiations with Russia apparently intended to keep relations on as friendly a basis as possible. These talks, largely concerned with trade problems, were sus pended several weeks ago when tne increasing demand for ma terials needed for- national de fense in this country led to a sharp curtailment of exDorts to Russia.

A few days later she (Russia) concluded the well known friendship agreement which was to incite the Serbs against Germany. Moscow demanded the mobilization ofthe Ser. bian army. When I still was silent, the men in the Kremlin went one step further. Russia offered to deliver war ma terial against Germany. This was at the same time that I advised Matsuoka (foreign minister of Japan) to bring about a lessening of the tension with Russia. Serb officers flew to Russia where they were received as Allies. Victory of the axis in the Balkans at first foiled the plan to involve Ger. many in a long war and then together with England and with the hope of American supplies to throttle Germany. Now the moment has come when I can no longer look at this development. Waiting would be a crime against Ger. many. For weeks the Russians have been committing fron tier violations. Russian planes have been crossing the fron tier again and again to prove that they are the masters. On the night of June 17 and again on June 18 there was large patrol activity. The march of the German armies has no precedent. Together with the Finns we stand from Narvik to the Car pathias. At the Danube and on the shores of the Black sea under Antonescu (Rumanian chief of state) German and Rumanian soldiers are united. The task is to safeguard Eur ope and thus save all. I have therefore today decided to give the fate of the Ger man people and The Reich and of Europe again into the hands of our soldiers.

Fully mobilized, the Soviet might amass an army of 5,000,000 men or more. But upon the controversial ques tion of Soviet production depends whether they would be equipped with the modern implements of war So they would be effective. Moreover, upon the Soviet state of preparedness, depends whether they h$ve been mobilized and moved into approximate position to meet the onslaught. Owing to the poor state of Rus sian railways and motor roads, some authorities believe it would really to mobilize.

I replied: 'Against everyone.' And Russia never informed us that she had even more far reaching intentions against Rumania. Molotov asked further: 'Is Germany prepared not to assist Finland, who was again threatening Russia?' My reply was that Germany has no political interests in Finland but another attack on Finland could not be tolerated. Especially as we do not believe that Finland is threatening Russia. Molotov's third question was: 'Is Germany agreeable that Russia give guarantees to Bulgaria?' My reply was that Bulgaria is a sovereign state and I did not know that Bulgaria needed guarantees.
