Cog gins on lower East Main street at the railroad tracks. A neighbor who lives alongside the property, where lumber is piled, has complained to the city council that fire hazard is great, and that sanitary conditions are not what they should be. The council appointed a com mittee to “investigate" the charges and report back. What the committee will say is yet to be learned. Hey, fellers! Issik under the However, since the mill has been brought to public I’M GOING TO BUY wagon attention, some comment might be in order. Regardless Sec wliat I found with his tall Fl RECRACKERS'HOW ARE waggin' up and down of whether Coggins has been the city’s best employer YOU GOING TO CELEBRATE Rover, how did you know we're THE FOURTH,PURSEY? and business man. and regardless of whether his mill is or is not one of the most tidy in southern Oregon, there are some things which might be said in its favor. During the last 11 years Coggins’ payroll has to Spain and China, stand by while victims are bombed taled $174,857.33, He paid out $280,570.62 for logs, and gassed.

There are two stands civilized people can take a small outfit, and more or less of an unpainted lean- to affair, he has been a factor of some importance Either they can cowardly hide behind “it’s none of our business’’ or they can take a firm stand for what in Ashland.

Lofty and worthy as are world aims at pease through diplomacy and conference, such tactics ap parently are the manna upon which the world’s woes are feeding. Few can doubt the intention of nations which hedge and withdraw and turn first one cheek and then the other, but measured by results, such anaemic gestures contribute to the military activity of the world and add to the confusion of human souls. With wholesale murder the rule, and with civilian bombings making streets run red with blood of non- combatants, it is high time somebody somewhere took an aggressive stand for what is right and humane. War is hell, as Sherman sagely pointed out. But that is no reason why those who insist on waging war can’t be given a little hell themselves. The present treatment of hopeful indifference and cautious waiting instead of definite, courageous action is remindful of the cancerous patient who was afraid to undergo treat ment until too late.
