"With or without offense to friends or foes 1 sketch your world exactly as it goes." "You Can't Do Business with Hitler" The above caption is the title of a timely book by an ac knowledged authority just issued (published by Little Brown & Co., $1.50) which is a complete answer to the appeasers and pacifists and non-interventionists favoring a negotiated peace on Nazi terms. The July Atlantic Monthly contains excerpts from the book. The author, Douglas Miller, was for 15 years United States commercial attache at Berlin, resigning in 1919. He was engaged entirely in aiding American business trans actions and had a unique opportunity to study Nazi commer cial methods. He is now professor of economics at the Uni versity of Denver, at present on a year's leave of absence, sponsored by the Rockefeller Foundation, to study Nazi economy. The handicaps we will face if we allow individuals on this side to negotiate with an unscrupulous centralized bureauc racy, employing slave labor, on the other side are convincingly detailed. Our government will be forced to extend its control in order to face Nazi pressure and change our whole system. Our economy would be characterized by "easy money, a ner vous and depressed stock exchange, rising indebtedness, a high level of employment and wages in defense industries and a feeling.of dread of the future." "If Germany wins, our foreign trade will come almost to a standstill. At the present time two-thirds of our foreign trade Is with the British Empire. We have placed that proportion of our eggs In one basket. Hitler bids fair to smash both basket and eggs. Another large segment of our trade lies with Japan. If Hitler wins, he might take steps to Integrate European and Asiatic trade, so that this market and source of supply would be suddenly taken from us. We should find an Immediate drop In our business with the southern part of Latin America. What was left of our foreign trade would be only the portion which goes to North America and the Caribbean area a restricted trade zone impossible to absorb our customary total exports," A Cheering Note From the lips of Brig. Gen. G. M. Barnes, assistant chief of ordinance, addressing the Society of Automotive Engi neers at its annual summer meeting comes a reassuring note of progress being made in this country's desperate effort to arm, itself for defense; a cheerful note in contrast to the bar rage.of fault-finding and calamity howling with which we are daily beseiged. . . . :' ; American tanks now being turned out in satisfactory numbers, the general said, are and other important characteristics to those produced by any other country. They possess, he added, marked superiority in the important qualities of mobility and mechanical relia bility, and continued : So far as Is known no other country possesses vehicles capable of traveling great distances at the speed possible with American models. American army men, said General Barnes, "no longer talk of tank track life in hundreds of miles, but in thousands of miles. Power consumption mately nine horsepower per ton of weight of vehicle at twenty miles an hour, which figure becomes extremely important when one talks in terms of 28 to 60 tons." He also said that in the past year improvements of 1000 percent in the ac curacy of fire of tank weapons have been achieved. An Act of War All that the president so forcibly said in his message on the sinking of the Robin Moor, branding Germany as a pirate of the high seas and an international outlaw, was true. If we do not maintain freedom of the seas and protect American lives and property, we will have to submit, as Europe has sub bitter, to world domination at the hands of the Nazi regime. And as the president said "We are not yielding and do not propose to yield." The unproved torpedoing of the American ship, in defi ance of international law, was an act of war and intended as such. But it is not the first move of undeclared war. For years German agents have been engaged in equally warlike acts conducting a campaign of espionage, sabotage and dis ruption in America, creating a fifth column to pave the way for destruction of a hated democracy. Beyond stating that "full reparation for the losses and damages suffered by Amarican nationals will be expected from the German government" the president does not ask action from congress. The German reply will determine our course. In the meantime we can't be bluffed by a gangster government that knows no law but force. Modernistic Art The best description of "modernistic art," which has reached full fruition in the WPA murals in federal buildings in Washington and elsewhere, is given by General Hugh John son in his syndicated column of the picketing staged by Cheyenne Indians to protest a painting in an Oklahoma post office, which they claim a libel upon their tribe. The general snys: Their grievance was n painted mural on the walls of the Watonga post office. They criticized the picture. It represented a famous late 19th century chief, Roman Nose, Mrs. Nose and family with three mounted bucks and what apparently, in the background, Is a white family, Just passing through on a migration. There, somebody Is milking a cow which Just didn't happen In those circumstances. Chief Red Bird, who protested against the mural, didn't mention that, but h i complaint of the rest of the picture was sufficient and eucclnct. He stink." he said. I cordially concur. The mural Is In the early Rus sian, middle Mexican, slightly soviet, or late WPA boondoggling school of Bcml-postcr mural art-a trifle Hopkinslan In concept and perhaps a llttlo Ickeslan in execution.

The Fireside Pulpit By REV. E. S. HAMMOND "Lord, wilt Thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel ? Ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you." Acts. 11:8. This conversation took place Just before our Lord's ascension, during His last conversation with His di sciples. In his little book, The Chris tianity of Jesus Christ, Mark Guy Pearse tells us we should not separ ate these two texts quoted above, as we are Inclined to do In our think ing, but look at them as closely re lated as question and answer. And In order to understand more clearly we should emphasize the pronouns "thou" and "ye." By doing so we bring out clearly the teaching of the passage. The disciples ask the Lord if He (at this time) will "restore the kingdom of Israel." He replies, "Ye shall receive power." In other words the disciples are looking for Jesus to . Inaugurate some miraculous, spectacular movement. He tells them In effect that His earthly min istry in bodily form is ended. But they are to be empowered to build the kingdom themselves. They did not, to be sure, understand Just then that the kingdom was not to be a Jewish kingdom along the line of David's and Solomon's. They were to learn that It was to be a spiritual kingdom, and for all races and peoples. But the essential thing they were to learn was centered In that little word "ye." They were to build the kingdom. The Master was no long- ror By Don Aha, summer time, the good old summer time, arrived by coinci dence today with the longest day In the year which makes a pretty heavy matter to get through with successfully all in one day. It's not a bad Idea, however, to have the longest day In the year ushered In along with summer because It gives folks a chance to sit around and bask in summer weather for a long time all in one day. Anyway, we're glad It happened that way today. Official Confirmation Portland tP) The sun wos over the Tropic of Cancer at 11:34 a. m. today and summer was here, but the weather in Oretton continued gray and dampish. The Portland! weather bureau predicted more showers on both sides of the moun tains tonight and Sunday. We're pleased to include fore going Associated Press dispatch up holding what we had to say about summer as from some reports we've heard now and then not all our customers always believe everything we say, and this should make them pretty well ashamed of themselves for doubting us, even for a minute. Paul Hauser, the younger, our former friendly enemy, was up from Portland yesterday on his day off from his new duties on the Oregon Ian and was quite amazed at the changes In the old town since he left four days previous for his new Job. "It's sure good to look around after all this time," said Paul, "and to feel my faith in the progress of this community has been upheld." We note where Charley Sprague is going back to Boston to talk to the governors about America's stake In the Pacific. Charley's kind of worked up from the old days when he used to make speeches about Salem, and then Into the governor's chair where he branched out on Oregon and now he's going to waft his wings over the Pacific.

They must have felt themselves hopelessly Inadequate to the task. But the day and the experience came. Peter, who had denied his Lord, preached that wonderful ser mon. Thomas, who had refused to believe Jesus had risen, went later, we are told, to India, where a group of believers still are called "Thomas' Christians." And Paul the perse cutor was converted and preached the gospel of Christ around the Mediterranean to the Gentile world. Time would fail us to , tell of Chrysostorn, Augustine, Francis of Asslssl, Martin Luther, John Wesley, William Booth and myriads of oth ers,. The whole history of the Chris tian church Is a testimony to the wisdom of the Master's method, and the truth of His promise. And men of our own time have still carried the torch.

And for us, away on our vacation to the wide open spaces where the davenports are soft and easy for afternoon naps and alarm clocks have as yet never penetrated. So customers, so long, until we meet again. It's sure going to be tough on Tom cods. Novelties In theNezvs tsy the Associated Press) Serious Training Champaign, 111.

KellySays: War Department Soon To Order Lumber Officials Don't Want WPA in Program Salem Firm Gets -Paper Contract By John W. Kelly Washington, D. C, June SI With In a brief time the war department will be In the market for 1,500,000,000 feet of lumber, to be used In the construction of cantonments. This is one reason why officials have been anxious to have all go well in the forests and sawmills of the Pacific northwest, for a large percentage of the lumber will be Douglas nr and Ponderosa pine. Before the lumber Is required, however, congress must authorized Increase of the army to about 2,000,000 men and officers and appropriate the money for construe tion of the cantonments. These mat ters will come in due time, but the communities having "Indian Infor mation" that they have been se lected as sites can scarcely wait. Contemplated cantonments In Oregon are all located in neighbor. hoods surrounded by timber and sawmills, but the way things are run by the army the lumber used may come from hundreds of miles away, One of the Important officers In charge of part of the construction program says It is foolish and not businesslike. It is like the house-that-Jack-bullt, he says. First a cantonment is required for 36,000 troops. To build It dwellings must be built for 35,000 carpenters, gfaders and what have you to do the work. But to provide shelter for the car penters and others who are to build the cantonment thousands of men must be employed, and so on and so forth. "Screwy," Is the way this higher official describes the arran. gement. No Competive Bids When and If the cantonments are built they will be on competitive bids and not on the cost-plus fixed-fee basis, the war department thinks but congress Is opposed to competl tive bids, regards the cost-plus fixed-fee as a quicker method. Neither army officials nor gen eral contractors want WPA messing Into the defense program, building airports or access roads. Army says WPA work Is slow and expensive. Contractors, who have their i rangements with unions, say if WPA , worker is clearing a ditch or grubbing brush on the airport the union men will walk off the Job. This would be well enough, but the contractor Is under bond to complete the work at a specified time and unless it Is finished on the dot he will lose his shirt, For 1942 (beginning July 1) WPA has been voted $885,905 by the house. It will provide work for 1,000,000 monthly for the year and will ma terlally reduce the number of work ers on WPA projects In Oregon, despite presidential sanction of Im portant WPA projects throughout the state (Portland streets, $250,995; LaGrande street, $33,789, etc.) Tentative" Report Confidential report on the pro. posed reclamation project in the Grande Ronde valley has been com pleted after some three years. The report, almost two Inches thick, makes no recommendation nor Is there any suggestion of the feas ibllity of the proposed enterprise. The document Is confined to a gen eral discussion of the subject, soil, water, commerce, nearness of rail roads and highways, and to this ex tent is quite complete. Members of the Oregon delegation have received copies, with a notice that contents must not be made public nor dls closed to anyone outside of the res pective offices. Finally, the report explains that it is a "tentative" re. port only. Proposal that the government pur. chase the old postofflce building In Eugene for $75,000 and use It to ac commodate the Increasing number of 'government agencies has met with an emphatic "no" from Alan Johnstone, general counsel of the FWA. Mr. Johnstone explains that the economic policy of the federal government is against increasing facilities In the field, and that If more room is needed at Eugene, which he appears to doubt, the gov ernment can build another story on the new postofflce for less than the cost of purchasing the old building. Contracts Noted Oregon Pulp & Paper Co., Salem, has been given a contract for $12,031 of mimeograph paper for the quar termaster department.
