The following represent my impression of Turkey' role after talking to the head of the govern ment: . Turkey has auembled hundreds of young pilots and tankmen, trained and waiting for the where withal to fight Saracogalu would not react fav orably to a suggestion the allies furnish air squadrons complete with pilots. Turkey's part in the war, if she comes in, must be 100 per cent Turkish. Nc special negotiations with Russia are under way, as rumored in diplomatic quarters, although Turkey seeks the best relations with the Soviets. Turkey will not attempt to or ganize a Balkan entente in view of Russia's objection, although she traditionally has regarded the Balkans as her special interest. It can be stated categorically that Turkey has no ambition to chop off portions of Bulgaria in which Turks are the resident ma jority and even if the Turks par- ticipatea in we war on tne vic torious side they would make no such claim. ) Finnish Move Toward Peace With Reds Seen In Official's Trip STOCKHOLM, Feb. 12.

(Wiltshire engraving) Bond Quota Is Believed Made Chances are that Lane county will make its quota for E bond sales in the fourth war loan, Chair man N. H. Cornish said Saturday night Since banks throughout the county were closed Saturday, no figures on sales were available. It was generally believed, however, that the grand quota of $3,808,200 had been reached. "The drive ends Tuesday mid night," said Dr. Cornish, "and we have a chance of making that E auota if the people of Lane will buy as they did in the third war loan, when more than jiuu.uuu were sold in one day. I : "iIn thiV'campa'ign, businessmen have gone all out so that it is very likely the quotas in all other series will be topped. Now, it is high time for the farmers, physicians, nurses, dentists, and laborers to go all out purchasing E bonds.

By MARIAN LOWRY PORTLAND, Feb. 12 Special) Several Lane county people were among Oregon republicans in Portland today to see and hear Wendell L. Willkie, aspirant for the republican presidential nom ination and to take . in sessions also held during the day ,by the state GOP party organizations, the state central committee, the women's groups, 1 the precinct committee workers, the State Re publican club, and the Young Re publican group. .. Of much interest In his official press, conference.,, wis , Wilikie's declaratfrin that he will file his name for the Oregon primary ballot, and that he will conduct an active campaign here if other names are on the ballot Dewey's name was mentioned to him by press representatives, specifically, as another possible candidate. ; The "on the spot" question re garding his former democratic party affiliation brought a smile from Willkie and a quiet explan ation that he withdrew from the democratic ranks in the early thirties because of the trend to isolationism and because - he (Willkie) considered objective ot much of the legislation and the methods of administering it were disadvantageous to the country. He also aaid in : his interviews that he believed international operation "necessary if American standards' living oira to ?.be maintained, pointing to the great possibilities in .the ' northwest Food Shortage Fears Mount WASHINGTON. Feb. 12 : W.B Reports . reaching the capital and. government surveys them' selves raise the possibility of a far greater ahorta'ge ot meats, eggs and poultry a year from now than food officials have been expecting and greater than it need be. Those reporui ana aurveya. mi of liquidation in livestock . and poultry operations, the effects ot which will be felt to some extent later this year but. to .a greater extent in 1945. This trend is in line with rec ommendations ot the war food ad ministration, except that it may go farther than auggested. The government recommenda tions were accompanied by chang es in price policies which made the feeding ot hoga and finished cattle lees profitable. . In the caae of hogs, for example, a IT per cent reduction in the 1944 epnng pig crop was requested. A postcard survey made in Decem ber by the federal crop reporting board indicated farmers planned to cut their . pig , crop by ..that amount . , Since then, however, hog farm ers have had difficulties, such as glutted markets, reduced prices and protein feed shortages, in marketing last year's crop. Sever al midwestera farm paper report that as a consequence ot these dif ficulties, coupled with uncertain ty as to future prices and increas ing labor shortages, many farmers ire planning to reduce hog opera tions as much as 40 and 50 per cent. In th case ot cattle, the agri culture department reports that 10 per cent fewer head are being fed in the corn belt this winter; The National Livestock Producers' a sociatlon (ays the reduction is at leaat 25 per cent. The curtailment will Be reflected in snort supplies ot beef next spring and summer. In the case ot poultry, the gov ernment has recommended a r duction only in the ease of com mercial broiler thaf lay young, liahtweight chicken. It wants th production of egg to continue at highest level possible. Yet the crop reporting board report that 'armors are planninc to buy 17 per cent fewer baby chicks this year. The factor here is a less fav orable ration between price and egg and poultry feed. Victory Seen in Italy .

This Issue must be met or like the Whigs, the republicans' historical predecessors who failed on the issue of slavery, the party will die. Hoyt said. "Too many republican candi dates today lack faith, both in themselves and in America. 1 re fer to no candidate In particular, but It ai obvious that too many candidates today would 'rather be president than be right' . , . "The republican party doesn't need poll followers: nor popular ity patriots, but leaders unselfish, courageous with ideas already de veloped and ideals already tested byVonflict," he added. "Lincoln became president of the United States because he met the issues of the day square ly and without the compromise of popularity.

"Let's have done with thoughts of 'reading someone out of the party' and give more attention to bringing someone In," he said.
