LET THE WAR GO ON
Well, President Roosevelt has been inaugurated again and
Colonel Roosevelt's outsize dog has been safely delivered by
plane under high priority. The war may go on. Actually, of
course, it's- been going on and rather satisfactorily, without
regard either for inauguration or for the Roosevelt dogs. The
plural is used advisedly, for only a few days before the saga
o the colonel's mastiff came to note, the president's own
Fala'started on a trip and the president's wile told reporters
that the beastie was to wed. -
. Regarding this'we will not speculate. Let us rather draw
the veil on tnis romantic interlude in the life of the presi
dential pooch. After all there are matters too private, we
had almost said too sacred, to be so casually revealed. Mrs.
Roosevelt, we feel, somewhat overstepped the bounds in men
tioning the incident. .
It was perhaps fortunate for Fala that the colonel's dog
came along just at this juncture. It is an indication of public
intelligence that the public's interest was completely taken
by the story of an enlisted man, "bumped" as a passenger
to permit a dog shipped by the president's son to ride the air
ways, that Fala's amours abruptly ceased to interest.
It was not so fortunate for presidential publicity. For the
fourth time Mr. Roosevelt had an inauguration coming up.
At best it was no novelty. With the affair of Blaze, the bull
mastiff, in the headlines, the fourth inauguration ran a poor
second.
History, we are sure, will record little of the doggish epi
- scdes mentioned in these paragraphs. The ceremony in which
an old president became a new president will loom large. But
in the popular mind, we are just as sure, the case of the
colonel's dog will be remembered long after the inaugural is
forgotten.
IN WALLACE OUT JONES
Henry A. Wallace has won his long-starfding feud with
Jesse H. Jones, President Roosevelt has paid one of his debts
of the 1944 campaign and the public the public is left, as
is not unusual of late, holding the sack.
Wallace was a mediocre cabinet member, an equally medi
ocre vice-president, whose term was distinguished by his ill
advised quarrels with the highly efficient Jesse Jones. It had
not needed a cabinet post as secretary of commerce to make
Jesse Jones outstanding. He was that, in business and in the
world of finance, long before his services were sought by the
administration. He was outstanding also in the cabinet and
in his conduct of the tremendous assignments which came to
him as secretary of commerce and in allied activity.
In Jesse Jones the nation had confidence. He had earned it
many times. For him the nation had unreserved approval. It
was deserved. It had nothing to do with party preference. It
was for the man, for his ability and for his achievements. He
gave fully of his ability, as he devoted himself to one' task
the winning of the war.
v Jesse Jones was too busy to play-politics. Henry A. Wal
lace was never too busy to play politics. For his part in the
presidential campaign after he had been sidetracked for &
preferred candidate, he was the president's creditor. No re
ward could have been more pleasing to him than an appoint
ment which would involve the discomfiture of his rival. That
is the appointment which he has received.
To Wallace this is all-important. To Jesse Jones it will
mean little except in his knowledge of the innduouacv of the
man chosen to perform vital national and world tasks. To the
people yes, as we have mentioned, the people are holding
me sacK. it is our oenei tnat tney will reaijze this all too well.
Our compliments to the Boy Scouts and the Campf ire girls
for their part in the infantile paralysis drive for funds. In
one day using the "block of dimes" plan the two organizations
in Redmond and the boys of troop g3 in Bend raised a total
of $629. They have given good reason for congratulation on
the result of their efforts.

. That same evening the four ad
venturers, after a catfish dinner
in a water-front restaurant, wont
to Jake Blrdsall's room to talk
over their plans.
Tom Plunkett wet a finger on
his tongue and turned a page of
the guidebook that lay on the
table before him. "It says here,"
he said, "that the wagons ought
to be light instead of heavy, be
cause you'll run into deep sand,
mud and mire, and a heavy wagon
would sink to the hubs."
"Yeh, but it's got to carry a
heavy load, and how you goin' to
manage that with a light wagon?''
This came from Jake Birdsall.
"Well, now, let s see what we 11
have to put on the wagon," said
Mat Gordon. "We'll have to carry
a tent big enough for four to sleep
in. and four mattresses "
"Git out!" Jake sneered. "Four
mattresses. D'you want to take all
the household furniture? We'll
sleep on the ground. Take along
a lot of blankets. No sheets; you'd
have to wash 'em."
"All right," Mat continued. "A

everybody'll have to take some
clothing, such as shirts and draw

two suits and extra boots."
"Oughta to be several pairs of

What does it say in mat guioe-
book?" Andy Gordon asked. "Read
some more. Tommy, about what
we'll need on the way."
First in the list of supplies to
go in the wagon, according to the
book, was a kit of carpenter's
tools a saw, an augur, an axe, a
hatohct, a gimlet, a chisel, a ham
mer, and a lot of nails of all sizes.
"Naturally we take all of them
things without being told, was
Binisall's comment. "What else?"
Tommy read aloud a long list
which included coils of rope, some
light chains (you never know
when you may need them, the
book said), half a dozen balls of
twine, some tin buckets, tin plates
for use at meals, a cof fee pot, tin
cups. Needles, thread, buttons and.
scissors for repairing clothes.
Also a strong box or two, with
locks on them. Some warm wool
en clothes and a heavy overcoat,
for it gets vriry cold out there. A
large quantity of sonp, some tow
els, several wicker baskets, writ
ing paper and pens and ink, a few
blank brinks, pocket-knives, a lot
of matches in boxes. Tommy slop
ped reading at this point and kept
his place with a finger on the
page. "The honk says the matches
are very important," he explained,
"and Ik" sure not to forget 'em, for
you won't find a match on the
way. It says to take plenty of
candles and a lantern lor each per
son." In the matter of arms the au
thor advised every man to carry a
good rifle, a pair of pistols, five
pounds of powder and 10 rounds
ot lead. Also a bowle kmro.

one man. For the four of us it
would be four timeji that much."
pounds of crackers, some cheese,
salt and pepper."
"That all?" Birdsall asked.
They discussed food supplies
for half an hour and decided to
cut down every item to about two
thirds of the amount proposed.
"To help out on the meat we may
be able to shoot some buffaloes,
and I guess there'll be birds that
we can kill," said Andy Gordon.
"We're all purty handy with
guns."
a
The group sat in silence for a
little while. "I guess that about
covers it," Jake Birdsall said.
"We'll start to buy the things to
morrow. Also we must find a cov
ered wagon and six oxen. We'll
take them all by steamboat from
here to St. Joseph."
Mat ' Gordon took from his
pocket a map of the United States
west of the Mississippi. "This
map," he explained, "was sent to
me by Bob Perrin. You-all know

is the "Oregon raw milk act,"

which provides that most milk
and milk products must be pas
teurized, th it all cattle above the
age of eight months must be inoc
ulated, and that all milk produc
ing cattle must be tested twice a
year for Bangs disease .and tuber
culosis. Only resolution to create much
of a stir so far was that provid

committee to investigate the af
fairs of the liquor commission, as
requested by the governor. It has
been adopted by both house and
senate.

It's the best route of all."
The route, as mapped out, ran
from St. Joseph to Fort Laramie,
in Wyoming. From there on to
Pocatello, in Idaho.. The trail did
not touch Colorado or Utah, but
ran through Kansas, a corner of
Nebraska, across Wyoming into
Idaho. There it turned sharply
across Nevada in a southwest di
rection, entering California Just
below Lake Tahoe.
"I wonder Just how far it is by
this trail," Jake Birdsall inquired.
"It's figured out here," Mat re
plied. "Perrin says it's a little
more than 2000 miles from St. Jo
seph to Sacramento. I've checked
that up by measurements made
on the may, and he's right."
"Well, we can't count on more'n
15 miles a day with these ox
teams, taking everything by and
large, such as deserts, mud, moun
tains and so on," Jake said, as if
talking to himself, "and that
means only 90 miles a week if we
lay off on Sunday as a rest day.
Now, let's see gimme a pencil
.and a piece of paper." He figured
slowly, straightened up and said,
"It means 22 weeks, fellows."

large part of. the proposed legis
lation for the 1945 session, and
a good part of the bills on which
argument will develop, are al

of much material introduced the
first two weeks of the session,

Up to Monday noon, 20G bills,
23 resolutions and nine Joint res
olutions had beer! introduced, as
well as several memorials.
While the legislature spits on
its hands before taking hold of
this barrow-full, a brief resume
of more important bills intro

from entering highways except
at specified points.
Five bills concerning old age
assistance have so far been sub
mitted. They would increase pay
ments from the present $40 to $50
and $60 respectively and in one
case no limit is declared. One of
these Bills provides that old age
assistance be financed by direct
appropriation rather than from
revenues of the liquor control
commission, and another would
establish a $-10 "floor."
A "civil rights" bill put in an
appearance this session, and
would make it a misdemeanor to
refuse public accommodations to j
any person regardless of race.
Provision of two finance bills
are: $8,000,000 for schools, an in
crease of $3,000,000 over the pres
