MEANS OF ELIMINATION Removal of top ranking republicans from the domestic political scene by "kicking them upstairs" is a favorite tactic of our democratic national administration. Latest exemplifi cation of this came, of course, in the decision to send General Dwight D. Eisenhower across the Atlantic tO organize and command a western European army. No question of his be ing the man for the job but there is no question, either, in the minds of a substantial number of millions of Americans as to his being the man for the job of president of the United States. Although the assignment to overseas duty is techni cally no bar to acceptance of a nomination, it is a terrific ob stacle to success in national convention or in general election. The president will breathe more easily between now and No vember, 1952. More startling, however, than the return of General Eis enhower to army service is the disclosure that Governor Thomas E. Dewey was offered the highest diplomatic award, that of ambassador to the court of St. James, in the year fol- lowing his second unsuccessful campaign for the presidency. Regardless of that defeat, the efficiency of his New York or ganization still had the democrats bewildered, They needed , help and Mr. Truman sought to give it by enticing the gov ernor out of the country. That one failed to work and, while Governor Dewey would unquestionably have done a superla tive job as ambassador, the need for him on this side of the ocean has, we think, been greater than in Europe. Now that this has been made known we are wondering what the administration is planning by way of eliminative promotion for some of the other republicans who, directly or indirectly, might be a threat in 1952. Shouldn't there be something on tap presently for Senator Taft or Governor Warren ? Or has the attempt already been made ? THE CHOICE NARROWS Red Chinese visitors at United Nations sessions have at last spoken their piece and departed for their home land. What they had to say took a long time and a lot of words ; what it meant was an order, brief and unmistakable. It was directed to those of the United Nations engaging in military operations in Korea and it bade them get out of Asia. At the same time that the order was being given, other Chinese reds were engaged in putting non-communist members of the UN out of Asia. Chiefly that meant that they were putting United States forces out of Korea. Formosa would receive attention later and the French in Indo'-China likewise. Oddly enough the most dependable of our western allies, England, has the same idea as the commies, although for far different reasons. The Chinese do 'not want us in Asia. It is partly the fear that we may in some way cramp their style; it is, perhaps, a reawakening of the hatred of the unknown which animated the Celestials in the attacks on the "foreign devils" at the time of the Boxer rebellion. Either way we are not wanted by the red Chinese. , , . The English do want us in' Eurbpe: They want us to provide the defense against a possible Russian westward movement. They know that our present military resources will make it impossible for us to be present simultaneously on. opposite sides of the globe with any degree of effectiveness. That is why Prime minister Attlee, on his recent visit to Washington, although stressing his country's, loyal friendship to 'our own, made it rather plain that his government would be happier far if our forces should get out of Asia. Between pleasing our friends and gratifying our enemies there may be little choice. We suppose Elizabeth Allen would write it today this way : Backward, flow backward, O prices of cars We are so weary of Truman and Mars Toil drawing higher pay, protests in vain Give us our December first prices again. !- Sisters Group Attends Service Sisters, Dec. 21 (Special) A large group of friends and mem bers of the Sisters Church of Christ attended the baptism serv ice at the Christian churcii in Bend Sunday afternoon.

UlTexas & Pacific railroad officials got this report from a clerk: "Broke lock on a car that came in with cattle in it, to put the hay that was on fire inside it out."1 WASHINGTON COLUMN By Peter Edwin Washington (NEA) The at mospherc in Washington could not possibly be worse for find ing a sensible solution to the Korean crisis. From the outside, it appeared that President Truman and Prime Minister Attlee of Great Britain were in agreement on main principles. They were cov ering not only the military col lapse in Korea. They were also trying to solve a broad hinge of political and economic questions that related to the two countries, and to the whole of Europe as well. Matters which the two heads of state could not resolve themselves were being given to teams of experts for advice, with every assurance of ultimate so lution. By contrast, the scene in. the United States Senate was any thing but assuring. The Senate is supposed to be the calm, deliber ative branch of the U, S. Con gress. Yet Its members revealed a bad case of jitters that amount ed almost to panic. 1. Republican Sen. James P. Kem of Missouri Introduced a resolution on behalf of 20 Repub lican senators, requesting the President to make no commit ments that could not be review ed by the Senate in treaty form. Senator Kem said he wanted to prevent a second Yalta. or Pots dam. What this overlooks, however, is the fact that Soviet Russia or its Premier atalin are not parties to the Truman-Attlee talks. This is supposed to be an agreement between American and British allies for their own safety and well-being. i. ben irvtng M. Ives, always In the past one of the calmest and sanest of the Republican sen ators, gave in to public clamor and announced he would intro duce a resolution demanding the resignation of secretary of state Dean Acheson. a e Coming right at a timer when Acheson was in the middle of the American-British negotia tions, this could hardly inspire any British confidence in the U.S. position. Prime Minister Attlee himself had publicly expressed his governments confidence in Acheson. but that of course had no bearing on the Senate. A. Republican ben. Joseph R. McCarthy of Wisconsin .made a speech in the Senate in which he called for the resignation as Secretary of Defense of Gen. George C. Marshall. McCarthy's reason was because of General Marshall's "advanced age." General Marshall is 70. So, it might be pointed, out, is Gen. Douglas MacArthur; Demands for the resignation1 of General MacArthur voiced "by Sen. Harley M. Kilgore of West Virginia, and other Democrats in Washington, throughout t h its country and in turope are every bit as deplorable as this latest attack on General Mar shall. When generals are fight ing witn their backs to the wall with everything they have, a stab in the back is no help. ... e a a It is noteworthy, too, that there was no clear voice in either party of the Senate outlining a course that made complete sense. Sen. Arthur Vandenberg of Mich igan used to exercise that leader ship. So far, no one has taken his place. When the people are confused and frightened, calm leadership and clear, thinking alone can quiet them. The frantic demands of a Sen. Owen Brewster of Maine, urging that the atomic bomb be dropped anywhere only increases the chances of precipitating World War III.

At Lebanon the Cascade Plywood corporation will con struct o new hardboard plant at a cost of $1,000,000. Hardboard is a new product made by the compression of sawdust or fibre. Cascades will employ a new pro cess which requires no water in the pressing. Boards vary In size from 132 in. to two inches. Hard boa id may be turned out in differ ent sizes and used as lumber or plywood. The Lebanon plunt will use raw materials from waste of its own mills and nearby saw mills thus stepping up the realiza tion from logs. TIMELY VISITOR Saulte Ste. Marie. Mich.
