small shotgun and fired.

them, Wilson said. He said all
paper money was taken from the
cash register. The holdup men
were not masked. -

undo the allied teaching.
Junkers Try Again
So much for this dangerous Hit-J
ier youtn movement, Dut n wouia
be a mistake to think that this is
the sole source of support for the
revival of Nazisni. The Prussian
militarists, whose only interest in
Hitlerism is that it fitted in with
their schemes for expansion of
the Reich by conquest, will do
their utmost to unhorse the Al
lies. Apropos of this, when I was at
the war crimes trials at Nuern
burg a short time ago I reported
that the defense of former Relchs
marshal Hermann Goerlng and
some other prominent figures was
directed fully as much towards
whitewashing me Hitler regime
as towards securing acquittal for
those in the dock. In fact it strikes
me that Goerlng is quite resigned
to conviction and is devoting his
energy towards vindicating his
government and thereby provid
ing propaganda for a restoration.
The Youth movement plot Isn't
surprising, of course, for it has
been In the cards all along. And It
isn't the last thing of its kind
which we shall see, because it's
natural for a beaten people to try
to overthrow their conquerors.
You can see the threat of this In
the sullen and often bitter looks
you get from many Germans.
Nazi Testifies
On Red Talks
(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1)
bentrop could testify on that mat
ter. Rlbbentrop said that at the
time the alleged secret agreement
was negotiated "There was not
the slightest doubt in the minds of
Hitler or Stalin that if all nego
tiations with Poland came to
naught, territory taken from our
two countries by force of arms
would be reunited to them by
force of arms. In this manner,
the eastern boundaries (of Po
land) would be turned over to
the Soviet Union and the west
ern territories to Germany."
What Russia Wanted
Nazi efforts to Induce Russia to
join an Axis three-power pact
failed, Ribbentrop said, because
the Soviet's price for signing was
too high.
He listed the Russian terms as:
1. A free hand In Finland,
which "we supposed would lead
to the occupation of Finland."
2. Close relations with Bulgaria,
which the "Bulgarian government
did not want."
3. Certain rights in the darden
elles, which Mussolini opposed.
1. An outlet through the Bai
lie, which would have brought up
the question of the Skagerrak,

Astronomer Relates Methods
Of Tracina Comet Courses
By J. HUGH PRUETT
Astronomer, Extension Division,
Oregon Higher Education
System
' So numerous are the little com
ets that every year clutter up the
skyways In the general vicinity
of our old earth, that astronom
ers seldom bother the general
public with them. Occasionally,
however, one is very interesting
although it never brightens to
naked-eye visibility.
On February 2, the announce
ment came from Rome that M.
Timmers of the Vatican observa
tory had discovered a comet of
magnitude nine. Since celestial
objects of magnitude six are the
dimmest seen by the best of eyes
without optical aid, this comet
was thus far below unaided-eye
perceptibility. Its brightness would
have to increse 16 times even to
be faintly glimpsed in a clear,
moonless sky.
Within the next few nights
Comet Timmers was observed at
uick, mm, uuweu aim ine u.o.
Naval observatories, and its po
sitions at the various times care
fully noted as to right ascension
and declination. These terms re
fer to apparent angular positions
on the sphere of the sky which
correspond to longitude and lati
tude on our earthly globe.
Orderly Orbit
The motions of the heavenly
bodies are so orderly, and students
of nature on our planet have
through the centuries learned so
well the mathematical laws of
these motions, that if the posi
tions of a comet among the stars
is carefully measured on three
different nights, the calculation of
a fairly accurate preliminary or
bit may be made.
From these calculations, tables
may be prepared which will en
able the operator of a telescope
which is equipped with angle
measuring circles to point it so
a-curately at the comet's position
at any hour during the next few
months that he may confidently
expect to see the little sky-Wan
derer as soon as he looks into the
eyepiece.
Position Table
Tables of position for Comet
Timmers from January to June
were soon prepared and distrib-

uted throughout the Americas to
all subscribers of the Harvard
Announcement cards. It is most
interesting to spot one of these
little te!e.scopic comets from the
prepared tables. Two of us first
looked for Comet Timmers in a
wonderfully, clear and. moonless
sky on February 25. .
There it was -in the position
predicted, a fuzzy little object
with a bright central nucleus and
a faint indication of a nebulous
tail pointing away from the sun
as do all orthodox cometary ap
pendages. Surrounding it in the
circular field of view were many
little stars of various brilliancies.
We were reaching into the great
spaces for an interplanetary trav
eler far beyond the ken of un
aided vision.
All spring Comet Timmers will
be wandering in the general lo
cality of the north star and will
decrease in brightness very slow
ly. A sell-addressed postal card

this year was $12,690,000,000
which failed to approach the $23,

war in the initial 1045 quarter.
But the country is still spending
under Ihe.war account to main

needs. In the first three months
this year the outlay for this pur
pose was around $9,000,000,000.
In the corresponding period last
year it was $21,655,000,000.
Sales of U. S. saving bonds dur

000,000 in the first three months
of 1945.

Bond redemptions in the first
quarter amounted to some $1,789,
000,000, compared with $1,077,
000,000 in the like 1945 period.
This was considered by the treas
ury to be a good record. A rise in
redemptions had been expected
but the total was well below what
had been anticipated. Most people
are holding their bonds for def
inite investment purposes the
treasury said.
Since Jan. 1 the United States
has increased its gold holdings by
$191,000,000, to a total, according
to latest figures, of more than
$20,256.00,0000.
The gold supply declined by

U.S. Army in China
To Be Deactivated
SHANGHAI Deactivation
of the United States Army in the
I China theater May 1 was an
' nounced today by Lt. Gen. Albert
C. Wedemeyer upon instructions
from the joint chiefs of staff in
! Washington.
I This will leave 3000 to 4000
U. S. Army personnel in China to
carry on with the military advis
ory group headed by General
George C. Marshall and to serve
on the truce teams and aid with
repatriation and similar residual
duties.
Those figures were announced
by Wedemeyer. He said only 6000
U. S. troops are in China now,
though there were 65,000 at the
wartime peak.
The 30,000 Marines under his
command will revert to Navy
control, Wedemeyer said. He did
not indicate whether they might
leave north China. -
However, the Marines are being
demobilised rapidly. Maj. Gen.
ICeller E. Rockey, commander of
the Marines, told reporters in
February that his troops had vir
tually completed their original
task securing ports and facilities
to assist Chinese troop movements
and helping disarm Japanese
troops.
Wedemeyer is scheduled to
leave Thursday for the United
States. He plans to undergo a
sinus operation and presumably
will confer with President Tru
man and other officials in Wash
ington. He said, he did not know
whether he would return to
China. Lt. Gen. Alvln C. Gillem,
Jr., will serve as U. S. comman
der on Wedemeyer's departure.
Fishing Industry's
Import Told Kiwanis
The importance of the fishing
Industry to the state of Oregon
was the keynote of Representa
tive Earl Hill's address to Kiwanis
members at the organization's
weekly luncheon meeting at the
Osburn Hotel Monday.
"The fishing industry is the
third largest industry in the
state," Hill asserted. In addition,
he added, there are 30,000 people
in the state of Oregon who live
directly upon the fishing indus
try and every possible effort must
be made to insure the restocking
and protection of the state's food
fish resources.
Hill described the measures
taken by the State Fish Commis
sion to protect the future of the
food fish industry, including in
troduction of modern methods of
operating fish hatcheries and re
search into a strange fungus dis
ease which killed 997 salmon
which had come up the McKenzle
River to spawn before they had
laid their eggs.
Representative Hill was intro
duced at the meeting by chairman
of the day Alan Wheeler. Presi
dent Harry Chase presided at the
meeting.
