"I think Mrs. Norton would make splendid vice president. At first I considered Eleanor Roose velt but now I have something bigger in mind for her. "Mrs. Roosevelt must represent American women at the peace table," Mrs. Conkey said with great emphasis. "Without a touch of spiritualness the peace conference will fail. And who could bring a greater aura of spirituality to the peace table than Eleanor Roosevelt?" Mrs-- Conkey said she favored Mrs. Norton for vice .president because of her background.

IAKIO IV NAIISCO NATIONAL SIJCUIT COMPANY la (h orlg. Inal ShraAM Whol Sak rlu ot Niagara fa Hi. By GLADYS TURLEY News of a revolution in Colom bia follows closely an interview with John W. Butler, Jr, former Marshfield boy, now a resident of Colombia's capital, Bogota, who stopped over in Eugene while en route to Marshfield for a visit with his parents, whom he has not seen since his last trip from Co lombia four years ago. The elder Butler was Marshfield city re corder for many years. Butler, a geologist for the Texas Oil company, has lived in Colom bia since 1935, first going there as official petrographer for the Co lombian government, which $64 title means that he used his knowl edge of rocks, gained at the Uni versity of Oregon, in the service of the South American republic. . The former young Oregonian apparently did not expect a revo lution in the country he left last April for a four-months furlough in the United States, because he told the interviewer that Colom bia was one of the more stable South American republics politi cally, not having had a revolution since the'early 1900's. Centralised Government In his talk Butler related how the ; Colombian government is highly centralized, the appointive power of the president even reach- j ing down to the mayoralty of towns. Butler, however, asserted that this was not necessarily a bad situation because under cer tain normal conditions in South American countries a highly cen tralized government is desirable. Sometimes the political ideals of the United States are too high for the level of civilization within some of the South American coun tries. and the geographical limita tions of those countries, he assert ed. Butler thinks a more realis tic and charitable attitude toward South American politics might be a good thing on the part of Amer icans. 1'he good neighbor policy, has made Americans more conscious of the people and activities in South America and' this is all to the good, he said. He cited the case of a noted American miner alogist, who recently-made a trip to a Colombian school of mines. Itis visit was the first Interest in the school an outsider had shown in 20 years. Naturally the Co lombians were ' pleased, Butler said. He stressed the point that Colombia and other South Amer ican countries have their leading experts and scholars in various fields, but because publicity meth ods are lacking, nothing much is heard of them or their research in the outside world. He pointed out that in the case of Colombia it has only been since the advent of the commercialized airways in the 1920's that her mountain fast ness has been open to rapid trans portation, and thus the quick-interchange ot ideas and activities with the outside world. , Countries Individual Butler would warn Americans against lumping South American countries together. They must be treated .as individuals with cer tain characteristics of their own, he said. However, even though they differ among themselves, they would be united against any outsider, Butler believes. Colombia has been hard hit by lack of imported goods since the war, Butler said, even though the United States has releired some manufactured goods to the coun-! try. He defended the U. S. prac- ; tice of sending Colombia goods i which American citizens have not ' been able to get, such as cars and refrigerators. It was necessary to gain the good will of Colombians , because of the strategic position of I their country with respect to the j Fanama canal. Before the war Colombia held : ninth place as a world oil pro- j ducer. However, lack of machin- ' ery has since held up much new j develoDment. arcorrllnff in the t young oil company geologist It j I is the opinion of Butler that the I U. S. in the post-war world should save her oil as a reserve and de velop fields in other parts of the i I world. He thinks this could be done without embarking upon a 1 1 policy of Imperialism. Butler is accompanied by his wife, an Ohio girl whom he mar ried while In New York studying for his doctor's -degree. Butler . was graduated from the univer-' sity in 1929.

Her shey has reassured men over 30 that their induction into the arm ed forces would not seem neces sary so long as military demands ! for mannowpr rin. nnf inrranu Speaking before the Commerce 1 1 and Industry association,, he said it was his belief that the "pat tern" established for Inducting men Dy age groups will meet fu ture demands, barring war de velopments mat would require more men. "So long as the demands remain at the present stage," he added. "the use of the over-30 year old I group would not seem necessary. I but the answer rests on the war situation."

Y. OP) The! Bell Aircraft corporation has laid off 400 employes, of which 43 are war veterans, because of what it termed a "leveling off of produc tion." Company officials said that the company had failed in its attempts to amend the company s contract with the CIO United Automobile Workers, to give seniority status to tne veterans, who hud not been employed at Bell prior to their ser vice within the armed forces. The company said it proposed to grant the veterans seniority rights from the date of their en try into the armed forces. Under present contract terms, workers must be l.iid off in the order they ! were hired, regardless of their I status as veterans. William S. Hilger, sub-regional director of the CIO-UAW, said that the union, through a national i committee, was working out a pro gram for protecting - returned veterans in industry, and that this program was expected to be Incor porated into the company's con tract when it was renegotiated next month. .
