MEETING AN OBLIGATION
Deschutes county has put itself in shape to meet its ob
ligation to the Red Cross for the coming year. Or, putting it
correctly, to meet through the Red Cross its obligation to its
sons and daughters serving in the armed forces and their
dependents at home. It has done so by subscribing incieea,
over-subscribing the quota assigned to it in the current fund
drive. '
Properly, it seems to us, not Deschutes nor any other
county can take any particular credit for raising its quota. It
would be shameful if the tund were not raised nut to raise n is
merely for the county to do one of the things rightly expected
of it.
Credit is to be taken, however, by the junior chamber ol
commerce for its part in the undertaking. It set up the drive
organization, it kept the records, it saw the ellort to its suc
cessful end. Again, the junior chamber has put all of us into
its debt by accepting a community job and performing it with
its customary efficiency and success.
CHESSMAN ON ELLIS
An echo of the proposal to re-apportion certain areas of
the state in order to give this section a senator is found in a
letter written to the Pendleton East Oregonian by Senator
Merle R. Chessman. Though Senator Chessman is from As
toria it was from Pendleton that he went to Clatsop county
and his letter, therefore, has particular interest. We think
you will like to read it and offer it here without further com
ment.
Senate Chamber, Salem, March 17, 1945.
Editor East Oregonian:
My attention lias been called to an article In your Issue
. of March 6, with reference to the defeat of the reapportion
ment bill. The article states that the information was received
from Sen. Rex Ellis over the telephone. The concluding para
graph quotes Senator Ellis as saying that the fight to abolish
his district was led by Senate President Belton and Senators
Cornett, Walker and Chessman. This Is a bald misstatement
and, Inasmuch as Senator Ellis has declined to make a cor
rection, I feel that I should do so.
I did vote for the reapportionment bill, as I had told both
Senators Ellis and Cornett I would early in the session,
- because I felt it was manifestly unfair to have a single sena
tor represent five counties comprising one-fourth of the
physical area of Oregon. I did not, however, attempt to In
fluence the vote of any other senator; did not attend the
hearings; and made no remarks upon the floor. After all, it
was unpleasant enough ior me to have to vote against the
Interests of my old home county. Therefore, the statement of
Senator Ellis was deliberate misrepresentation, born of per
sonal pique, but to misrepresent seems to be one of his estab
lished habits.
I have no apology to make for voting for the reapportion
ment bill, nor have I any apology to offer for refusing to
support Senator Ellis for president of the senate. Rather,
. may I suggest that such apologies as are due should come
from the voters of Senator Ellis' dls.rlcf to the senate and the
people of Oregon for having sent. him here and having kept
him here,
' Very truly yours,
MERLE R. CHESSMAN
', , ' Senator, 15th District.

Charley had a' courier job for

"I promised to call Pat," he said.
"Then I'll be with you."
Pat and I had planned to drive

at Hugo's or Ham's for a shore

never occurred to me that some,

I told Pat that Charley and I were

my stuff all over the floor when
I got In."
With the feeling of a man who
is placing the noose around his
own neck, I reached into my
pocket and drew out Calavestri's
amulet.
"She gave me this, this after
noon." My voice sounded hollow.
Marks took the talisman and
stared at the stone set in the gold.
"Why did she give you this, Mr.
Trent ?"
"I don't know."
I know Marks didn't believe me
and I was fairly certain that Pat
didn't. It was a very thin story.
And when I started to tell it, its
thinness faded to transparency.
Inspector Marks weighed the
amulet in his hand. "Ti ls Hooker.
Where can I find him?"
"At the Vendome."
The clock on the mantel struck
the half-hour. Marks stood up.
"I think we'd better talk with
Mr. Hooker." He passed me the
amulet. "Did you notice the back
of this?"
I turned Ihe amulet over. On
the reverse side were several
crude scratches that might have
been made with a pen knife. At
first they looked aimless. Then,
as I studied them, they took form.
There were three letters:
PAX.
"Peace," I said.
"Ah, a scholar," Marks smiled
dryly.
The next morning Charley
Strand and I went over to the
club for breakfast.
We were sitting in front of the
fireplace, smoking and talking
and carefully skirting the topic of
the murder of the ni;ht hefore
when Marks arrived. lie looked a
little less grim and his smile seem

"Your friend Hooker has gone,"
he said.

twirled his hat en his finger. "I

looked at him and said:
"You're new, aren't you?"
The fellow's face was covered
with grease, but I could still see
the white line of a knife scar
along his cheek.
fWhere's Joubcrt?" went on
Charley.
"He's sick," the mechanic said.
"Where's Mr. Naylor?"
Again the man shrugged.
"I haven't Seen him."
It was all pleasantly familiar:
taxiing down for the take-off; rid
ing tail-up into the wind with the
motor humming hard and high,
and with the ground wheeling
back and away from us as we
climbed into the air. We went
straight across the hangars of the
Dalhart lines, and I remember
gazing down at the swamp grass,
looking deceptively smooth as it
whipped past.
Then it happened.
A hollow cough from the motor
was followed by a series of sput
ters and a spectral silence. The
motor was dead. Ahead of us a
corner of the horizon slid sudden
ly into the sky.
White-lipped, Charley glanced
at me, then at the telegraph wires
ahead. Their bright threads made
scars in the air. He tried to hop
them dead-stick, hut they just
tripped our wheels and the tail
heaved. The earth Surged upwartl.
Kven at that moment I said:
"That mechanic. The new one
with the dour look." Then the
swamp grass came In.
There we sat, Charley and I,
with the landing gear pancaked
ui under the wings, and we hadn't
even sprung a door.

forces headquarters in Washing
ton insists there has been no
change in strategic bombing pol'
cy, in spite of the results announc
ed after two all-incendiary rams
hv B-29's on Tokvo and after near-
obliteration raids on Benin, urea
den and other key cities in Ger-manv.
Charges that the United States
was now Indulging in what has
become known as "terror bomb
ing," in the belief that extra heavy
raids against tne civilian popula
tions of enemy countries might
hasten revolt and end the war are
officially denied.
Says an air forces spokesman:
"There has been no change In the
basic policy of the USAAAF,
which still confines its bombing
efforts to attack on military ob
jectives." But this sDokesman points out
further that, "enemy military ob
jectives include transportation fa
cilities and industrial targets as
well as military strongpoints."
"Goop" bombs are responsible
for much of the Increased effec
tiveness of incendiaries. Gdop is

processes employed by Henry
Kaiser's Permanence, Calif.,
works. Magnesium for bombs was
previously prepared by pulveriz
ing Ingots. The Permanente proc
ess, however, begins with a still
more finely divided dust form of'
magnesium which had to be con
centrated to produce the metal.
Kaiser had a number of fires ,
and considerable difficulty in this
last stage of the process. .By elimi
nating the pulveri7jng used in
other processes, it was found that
the Kaiser goop magnesium could
be used directly to make bombs
of much greater Incendiary lorce.
