The council was called at the demand of Daniel W. Tobin,
hard-fisted boss of the Teamsters, the largest union in the
federation and its spear front in most labor warfare. Tobin
warned of an open revolt among the rank and file of union

the CIO by further peace moves.

thus prolonging the strite.

Hess Rides the Beer Issue
Apparently convinced that the safest way to ride the
controversial liquor issue in the current campaign is to strad
dle the obstreperous steed with one foot in the "dry" stirrup
and one in the "wet, Henry Hess, candidate for governor,
declares himself for strict enforcement of the Knox law in
one breath and lenience toward beer dispensers who violate
the law and regulations of the liquor control commission in
the next.
Outlining his platform In a radio address last night, Hess
made a plea for the beer parlor vote when he protested
against the practice of the liquor commission in exercising
disciplinary control over offending operators of beer dispen
saries through the summary suspension or renovation of li
censes. Such disciplinary action, Hess asserted, should be
taken only in accordance with the due processes of law, by
' which he obviously implied that greedy proprietors of beer
joints who sell to minors and drunks or otherwise violate the
law should be permitted to continue doing business while
they were being tried for their
courts.
The beer brigands themselves and there are still plen
ty In the business, as evidenced by the long list of penalties
handed out by the commission at every meeting could hard
ly devise a better method of circumventing the law and ham
stringing its enforcement. .
Further Investigation Needed
The Dies committee probing un-American activities in
the United States has clearly established the fact that both
the German nazis and the Italian fascists are active in organ
izing their nationals and conducting propaganda under the
direction of their governments representatives in this coun
try as well as the communists financed by the Soviets. But
there has been no outcry against the exposures such as fol
lowed the "red baiting." That is because the communists have
sympathizers in official sources, if not in the president's pan
try cabinet.
Investigation of nazism and fascism has followed the
same lines as that of the communists and enough has been
brought out about all three to lustifv a thorough congres
sional inquiry. The Dies committee is handicapped by lack of
juiHia aim us woik nns Dcen necessarily superficial but it has
done a good job as far as possible.
The ultimate aims of all three of the European move
ments is the same, the destruction of democratic government
and the establishment of the tyranny of a dictatorship to
rule the land. Their method of procedure is similar, to create
dissension and turmoil and when collapse comes, seize the
power through organized groups of naturalized conspirators
under guidance of foreign officials stationed here for the
purpose.
Thanks for a Job Well Done
In voluntarily retiring from the city water commission,
on which he has served for nearly four years, because re
moval of his residence beyond the city limits makes him no
longer eligible to hold the office, J. M. Rickman can carry
with him the knowledge of a public service conscientiously
and well performed a service entitling him to the apprecia
tion of the people of Salem.
Mr. Rickman has served during the difficult period of
setting up an entirely new water system for the citv and the
formulation of policies for its future operation. His judgment
has for the most part been sound and conservative, his oppo
sition to extravagances determined and consistent and his re
sistance to political pressure unyielding. It has been largely
through Riekmaii s insistence that the policy of paving for
extensions and betterments to the distribution system out of
operating revenues, instead of increasing the bond debt, has
been maintained and he has consistently refused to permit
the commission to obligate itself for the cost of extensions
and service to districts outside the corporate boundaries.

The Fireside Pulpit
, By REV. E. S. HAMMOND
"And I will make thee unto this people a fenced brazen wall;
and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail
against thee." Jer. 15:20.
At God's command Jeremiah the
prophet denounced the king and
the religious and civil leaders In
Jerusalem for their sins, and
their persistence In a policy God
had forbidden. For this they
threw him Into prison, and desired
to kill him. But God told him to
be courageous in the words of our
text. Probably there is no other
man today so nearly in the situa
tion Jeremiah faced 2500 years ago
as the German pastor, Martin Nie
moeller. This man who has the courage to
defy Hitler has had an Interesting
history. The son of a German
preacher, he early decided upon a
military career. The World war
came on and after a time he found
himself the commander of 'U-Boat
67." He was sent Into the Medi
terranean to sink enemy shipping.
Here he had an unparalleled ca
reer. He and his comrades did not
think of the righteousness of their
acts. This was wart One winter
day In the Ionian sea they sank a
transport. Immediately the sea
was full of men struggling for their
lives. A French destroyer sought
to rescue them. Then they tried to
sink the destroyer. There was some
question In his mind whether this
was right, but he thought a moral
universe was impossible in war
time. At the close of the war he
felt that everything was gone for
which he had struggled, so he
planned to take a farm and raise
Sips for.

The Willamette Bearcats due to
play the San Diego Marines at San

lamette Barefoots instead of the
Bearcats. A telegram came to the
school yesterday morning that the
team had forgotten to take its hel
mets and shoes on the long trek
and to get them aboard train at
once, but if not aboard the 10
o'clock train It would be useless to
ship them. The Joker was that the
telegram was received at 11 o clock.
So the boys may have to hotfoot it
around the field.
Harold Hauk and his Viking wiz
ards who pulled several rabbits out

As we watched the first half
slaughter our mind was only half
on the game the other half being
far away in the Rogue river valley.
For there dwells one Art Perry, best
known, but least favorably known
in these parts, of the Medford
Perrys. That 19 to fl score for the
Vikings would have been duck soup
for the watchful waiting Mr. Perry
but he ll have ta wait another
week, at least.
But incidentally for heart break

A Clone Up of Geese
tGervais Star) I
Early Tuesday morning D. B. Du
Rett discovered a flock of wild
geese In the center of a field on his
farm. By means of a field glass
the actions of the flock were closely
watched. They were of the large
Canadian honker type, about 18 in
number, one large member, who
seemed to act as sentinel, stood to
the left or the flock and for a Ion
period stood stationary as a statue.
The other geese grazed all about
hlra, occasionally flapping their
wings. Shortly before 9 o'clock the
entire flock, save the sentinel,
squatted on the stubbies, seeming
ly resting. About 9:45 they all be
came active again with much
stretching of erlnas and necks, then
in an instant, about 9:55, they took
to flight on their southward jour-;
ney.
Tom Hoi man has been tetting
too muctt publicity through our
sheep. But the influence of his
pastor father, and his Godly home
led him into the ministry. Here
his zeal gathered a group of like
minded young men, and they
preached a living religion. Nel
moeller became pastor of a church
in Dahlem, a suburb of Berlin. But
Hitler came into power. Every In
stitution in Germany became nazt
fied except the church. Hitler and
his associates determined to bring
this into line. But Niemoeller and
his associates stood like "a fenced
brazen wall" against this. And
there were great multitudes of the
German people who stood with
them. They did not want Hitler's
old Norse paganism which he call
ed "the German Christian religion."
Niemoeller was threatened, but he
"obeyed God rather than man.'
Then he was arrested, charged with
treason. Months went by before it
was thought besb to try him. When
tried, he was virtually acquitted.
But, Instead of being released, the
Gestapo (secret police) hurried
him off to a "concentration camp."
Here he is held today. His health
Is frail, but his spirit is the spirit
of Jeremiah.
"Though the.cau.se of evil prosper,
Yet 'tis truth alone is strong;
Though her portion be the scaffold,
And upon the throne be wrong;
Yet that scaffold sways the future,
And. behind the dim unknown,
Standeth God within the shadow
Keeping watch above His own.

Washington, Oct. 8 The world's
moneymuddles are again inspiring
fears Jrom Paris around to Tokyo,
but not very deep
parently is not
yet at hand, or
near. Some con
structive re
ad jus tments are
merely being
made to postpone
it, and avoid It,
if possible.
France particu-
Paul HaUon
1 a r 1 y has the
money ague, but If our money med
icine men know their business, she
will pull through in better condi
tion than before.
French Finances
Uncommunicative M. Daladier
did not tell the French chamber
why he wanted to be a fiscal dic
tator until November 15. His fi
nancial minister promised no de
valuation and no further money
monkeyshines but said nothing af
firmatively. Two courses have been open to
Daladier as the best official Wash
lngton eye sees them. Neither
course Involves devaluation. Course
one is to cut down armament ex
penditures. This Is just rhetorical.
It cannot be done . In the existing
European situation. Everyone knows
it won't be.
Course two is to cut the service
on the French debt by making an
arbitrary reduction in interest
rates. It would amount to a capi
tal levy.
It Is an abrogation of the gov
ernment's contracts. It is immor
al, extra-legal, unfair but neces
sary.
It will be done.
French Problem
Reai French problem seems to
be, not money or expenditures in
the last analysis, but flight of cap
ital. French wealth lacks confi
dence. About 100 billion francs In
gold have gone out of the country
since the money trouble started.
This wealth must be brought back.
To devalue further would only
frighten capital further. Moreover,
it would be useless from a govern
ment standpoint because the gov
ernment has not yet taken the gold
profit from the last devaluation.
And anyway, the better economists
lately seem to agree that devalua
tion for government profit Is not
worth the cost.
German Finance
Oermany is digging herself deep
er into her economic hole, but the
Czechs conquest was a bolstering
against an early cave-in.
The whole nation Is working on
non-productive production, mean
ing armaments, which generate no
wealth. The standard of living is
constantly going down. But at the
same time Hitler has won a great
political victory, and some substan
tial economic props. He has gained
access to raw materials of the
Czechs and Austrians, which will
help to ease his dire internal situ
ation. Like the French move, this
does not solve his economic pre
dicament, but delays consequences.
World Conference
Current talk about a world eco
nomic or a world disarmament con
ference la considered idle-hoping
on high.
Realists susppect what is neces
sary first and foremost is a Euro
pean political conference. They
see no chance of economic or arms
understandings until a political
understanding is effected.
While hoping li being indulged
in, the realists hope the treaty of
Versailles may be torn up and for
gotten. This, they say, is the first
necessary step. The second would
be to right every wrong done Ger
many, to eliminate every Just
grievance that Hitler may have in
stilled into his people. Then, say
those of this theory, would be the
time to go to work for peace, eith
er by consolidation toetop Hitler at
that precise point by whatever
means are necessary, (Including
war) or to get Germany Into an
economle and disarmament ar
rangement to protect peace.
Until these political factors are
straightened out, any economic, or
disarmament conference might be
like a Joint dog and cat fair.
Gold Hoard
A plan along this line haa been
discussed unofficially among some
officials here. It would call first
for another meeting of the four
powers of Munich to guarantee the
border of every nation in Europe.
If this could be done (and Hitler
has said he wanta no more ground
in Europe) the way would be open
ed for a new league of European
nations to take hold and maintain
a status quo for a while.
Shed no tears for Mr. Morgen
thau who Is being pictured as crea
tor of a $600 millions plus gold
fund to meet expected withdrawals
by Europeans now that their crisis
Is over. In the first place It is not
a fund. It is a bookkeeping note
that this amount of unattached
gold Ilea In the treasury. It is just
as good on the treasury books as Is
the rest of the gold on the books
of the federal reserve bank of New
York, and vice versa.
Truth Is he has a billion and a
half he can use for exports If ne
cessary, but he won't No flight of
capital Is expected. There will be
gradual repatriation (particularly
for France) but you will see a
dream walking before you see gold
flying from Mr. Morgenthau or the
U. S.
