Dollar diplomacy it was called during the muck raking area. This is a time for dollar dipomacy. The world’s trade is stagnant, and only the infusion of credits, dollars, and trade can alleviate this stagnant situation. If America is to help the world help itself, let’s do it with business dollars, not with tax dollars. FRIENDSHIP TRAIN There are many cities and towns in the nation which will be by-passed by the Friendship train. We’re sure that more than a boxcar of foodstuffs and clothing for Europe could have been collected in Ashland. And the same is true for many other communities in the land. Since Charles Luckman’s committee for the conser vation of food has hardly acknowledged the Friendship train idea, which was first suggested by Drew Pearson, we feel as though someone should inform Mr. Luckman that the Friendship train is not being utilized nearly as well as it could be. The idea, which is that all communities throughout the land contribute their offerings and that these offer ings be collected in a train and taken across the na tion, then loaded on cargo ships and convoyed across the ocean to be given to the people of Europe, is a good one, it caught on with the people, much better than Luckman’s high powered Meatless Tuesdays and poul- iryless Thursday’s ever caught on. This week many trains are wending their way to New York. But many more trains should be rolling down the iron. We are speaking for little towns on the branch lines which have not had an opportunity to participate in the Friendship train idea. Some 50,000,000 Americans would like to join in the Friendship train movement. Suppose Luckman and his crew turn some of their abilities into figuring out a way to route boxcars from the smaller towns and out of the way places to join a second Friendship Train movement.

The Grizzlies really came back with a bang the other night to chew up the Tornado from Medford. Local supporters now feel as though the Booster breakfasts were worthwhile.
