DULLES, INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS ADVISER
As preparations continue for the San Francisco confer
ence, there is good news in the announcement that John Foster
Dulles has accepted an invitation to serve as an adviser to the
American delegation. His presence will do much to renew the
ideal that America's participation in the conference shall not
reflect partisan politics. His ability will add greatly to the
delegation's effectiveness.
Mr. Dulles was Thomas E. Dewey's adviser on interna
tional affairs in the 1944 campaign and, it will be remem
bered, international affairs, especially in relation to the post
war world, were left out of the campaign controversy. Rep
resenting the republican candidate, Mr. Dulles was directly
and thoroughly informed on the occurrences at the Dumbar
ton Oaks meeting, where the preview of the San Francisco
conference was given. -
Before that, of course, he was recognized as an expert on
international questions. He is chairman of the federal council
of churches commission on' just and durable peace, he was
secretary of The Hague peace conference in 1907, member of
the reparations commission and supreme economic council in
1919, legal adviser for the Polish plan of economic stabilize
tion in 1927, American representative at the Berlin debt coiv
ferences in 1933, counsel to the American commission to
negotiate peace in 1918 and 1919. He is a writer and speaker
on international affairs. ,
It is all too evident that extremely difficult questions will
have to be resolved when the delegations of many nations as
semble this month. To say that all will not be smooth sailing
is understatement indeed. .Complications growing out of the
tentative agreements reached at Yalta could, of themselves,
blight the San Francisco meeting. America's best brains, most
expert knowledge will be highly essential if results of the
kind that this nation and the world must have are to be forth'
coming.
; Choice of John Foster Dulles is in line with this need.
. TWO GIANT PINES
Now it seems there were two giant ponderosa pines in
Deschutes county and that the one to which we referred in
this column last week was not the one which the Forest Log,
publication of the state board of forestry, had in mind when
it listed its forest "champions." Which of them would be
more deserving of the title might be difficult to say, but it can
be asserted definitely that the Forest Log's tree is the, sur
viving champion.
As noted here, the pine found by the late D. L. McKay,
father, of Clyde M. McKay of Bend at the beginning of the
century on what was later to be the site of Camp Abbot, has
long since been logged and milled. It is questionable whether
the surviving champion found in 1937 by D. F. McKay, a
forest service employe and no relation of D. L. McKay, will
ever be cut for lumber. Pictures of the huge trunk, shown
Us by Ralph W. Crawford, supervisor of the Deschutes Na
tional forest, indicate that the product would not be of de
sirable quality. The tree is 162 feet in height, its estimated
age is 500 years and its diameter, four and one-half feet from
the ground, is eight and six-tenths feet. It is near the east
bank of the Deschutes river on the Foster ranch, NWit NE 'A.

MR. HUDSON'S PLAN
XX
When I saw a car coming In
the drive with the bright blonde
head of Brenda Temple beside
Charley in the front scat, I was
not sure that I liked It.
'Have I missed anything?" she
asked with an Ironic smile.
"A little," I said and I showed
her the threatening note.
"Not very original," she said
equably. '
"How did you get this?" Char
ley asked.
"It was stuck In my mirror."
Brenda put her hand on my
arm.
"Does It frighten you, Nick?"
"What do you think?"
"It looks very phony to me,"
remarked Charley.
"Phony or not, I'm taking the
advice."
1 made It as convincing as I
could, but Brenda merely regard
ed me blandly. Then she made a
rather pertinent remark.
"It seems to me that this situa
tion calls not so much for valor
as for common sense. It Is quite
obvious that whoever wrote this
note would rather have you out ol
here than kill "ou. why?"
"I've lost all curiosity in the
why's of this business," I snapped.
"Has Mr. Hudson seen this,
Nick?" Charley asked.
"No," I said.
"I think we ought to show It to
him."
"Natural!" " I said.

ing a fire In the fireplace. And'
oddly enough he had just touch
ed a match to what was undoubt
edly n copy of The Times. There
is little subtlety about Charley.
He dashed forward and tried to
rescue the aior. But Mr. Hudson
had proved a very able fire
builder. "Why, Charles!" Mr. Hudson
stared at him in mild surprise.
"I'd no idea you hadn't read that."
"I wanted to see If I hadn't read
part of it."
Charley passed over the note..
Mr. Hudson studied It. I watched
his face. And I saw nothing. Not
even surprise. With a little sigh
ho hannVd the note back.
"Brief and to the point." Mr.
Hudson turned to Charley. "You
were wondering If the letters
w;re cut from tnv paper. It would
n't prove much If they were,
would It? However', you can take
my word for it that they weren't."'
Then he spoke to me: "Well, Nich
olas, what next?"
"I'm getting." I said.
"I'm damned if I'd let anyone
push me around like that!" ex
claimed Charley.
"This doesn't happen to he any
one, Charles," replied Mr. Hudson.
"This may he a murderer. And
I feel that Nicholas Is quite right.
He should not spend another
night at The Ledges."
Charley looked at me.
"Well, Nick?"
"I'm for It,!' t said (Irmly.
"Mav 1 make a suggestion?"
Mr. Hudson looked at us all be
nignly. "I can understand Char
ley's disappointment. I feel a
slight vindic! ivories. In this mat
ter myself. The obvious thing to
do, would he to return' at once to
Boston. I dislike being obvious.
I invite you all as my guests to
dinner tonight at the Cock and
Kettle. Then we'll all go to the
movies."
"I've seen the picture," said
Ercndu. "It's atrocious."
Mr. Hudson smiled Indulgently.
"It won't hurt you to see It
again. After the movies Charles
can take Brenda home quite the
natural thing to do-and Nicholas
and Pat can reserve rooms for us
at The Wagon Wheel. Then I
shall slip back to The Ledges and
pick up our luggage."
- t
"Is all this folderol necessary?"
asked Brenda. : ,
"You can take my word for it
that It is," replied Phineas Hud
son quietly.
"Father," said Pat.
He looked at her mildly.
"Yes, Pat?" ,
'I don't like your going back to
The Ledges alone."
"My dear, you needn't worry
about that. Lot me handle this."
So we did. Phineas Hudson was
quite emphatic. And he seemed
to have his reasons.
That dinner was a rather pleas
ant little affair, except that be
neath the surface there was a
current of vague uneasiness.
Phineas Hudson was more jovial
than was his custom. And Brenda
was an unexpectedly charming
and thoughtful guest. Suddenly I
suspected that the things she
knew that I didn't know were a
heavy burden which she attempt
ed to lighten by flippant and
Ironic remarks.
After dinner we sat and smoked
until Pljlneas Hudson drew me
aside.
"Nicholas," he said, "there is no
honor among thieves and In my
heart I have been a thief, but I
am no coward."
He smiled at my bewildered expression.
"One has occasionally to say
those things to someone." His
fingers gripped my arm. "If I
should be late getting back from
The Ledges, do not come after
me, even If I should not return
until morning or at all."
He spoke these last three words
very quietly, but his voice did not
waver. Before I could speak, he
went on briskly:
"Believe me, son, I can handle
this. I know a little something
about this that you don't know."
"Everybody does." I said. I hesi
tated a moment. "Mr. Hudson, do
you know who was in the base
ment at The Ledges?"
He regarded me fixedly.
"What makes you think I
know?"
"I'm asking you," I said. I
"If I knew and if I told you,
you might have to lie about it
later. And there's no comfort like
knowing that you don't havcuo
lie." "

Bv Peter Edson
(NEA Staff Correspondent)
Washington Plans for dealing
with the German people after the
collapse of the nazl army are
again being talked of in Wash
ington. '
OWI Director Elmer Davis and
his deputy for tha European the
ater, Wallace. Carroll, have quiet
ly left Washington for London
and Paris. They will visit su
preme allied headquarters, con
fer with military government of
ficials, and brong back details on
the final phases of psychological
warfare which must be continued
even after the German armies;
are defeated.
Last summer, when it was
thought the nazis would fold be
lore the snow flew, there was a
whole shelf of plans made for
dealing with the German people.
Some 1,400 people were trained in
the OWI school oatside New York
City, for a variety of jobs In Euro-;
pean outposts. But when the Ger-1
mans didn't Immediately throw in
the sponge, the plans were kept ;
on the sheli and the training
school was closed. Now new plans
will have to be made to meet
changed conditions and OWI must '
do additional recruiting.
The job apparently cut out for .
OWI in Germany will be entirely .
different from what it will be in
any other country. Its function
will be pretty much in the nature
of combined censorship and pub
lic relations in connection with
military government.
It will be a part of the govern
ment of occupation in a country
where for the last 10 years there
have been no privately owned
newspapers or radio, all informa
tional activities being run by the
propaganda ministry of Herr
Goebbels, staffed with a choice
collection of grafters, extortion
ists, and thugs.
All these media will have to be
restaffed and the Germans final-'
ly approved for the jobs will have ,
to be handpicked. The question is
where to find the personnel. Pris-;
oners of war may furnish a. few!
eligible candidates. Refugees
wanting to go back may not be
welcomed. Whom to trust in Ger-1
many is indeterminable in ad-'
vance. There are bound -to be j
many sad experiences.
For a time, therefore, it is ob-'
vious that there will have to be i

when there's room for the air to

gests. Here are' some other sugges
tions on getting the best use of
your refrigerator. Clean, cold and
covered are the high C's for safety
in storing perishable food. Prac
tically all foods that go in the re
frigerator need to be put in cov
ered containers.
Covers are important for milk
and other foods of delicate flavor
to protect them from the odors
and flavors of other foods. Covers
protect such foods as. cooked
meats and leftover dishes and
keep them from becoming dry.
It is wise to put meat and poul
try in the special met container
under the freezing unit of a me
chanical refrigerator. If there is
not a meat container, meats can
be protected by covering them
loosely in oiled paper and storing
them under the freezing unit. If
the refrigerator Isn't mechanical,
put the meats where the tempera
ture is coldest to be safe.
KEEPS GARDENING HAND IN

Schools will be under the civil

schools will be closed at the be
ginning of the occupation. An in
teresting sidelight of the soviet I
army occupation of eastern Ger-!
many is that the Russians closed !
all the schools but opened up the
churches, which were centers of'
nazi resistance.
One of the few nice things
about the nazis is that they have
taught the people to accuse each
other, and that has already helped
considerably in weeding out the
most undesirable characters in
German - offiical life. With the
plug-uglies of the old ministries
of propaganda, enlightenment aod
education, there can of course be
no truck.
