Entered as eetend-claaa mail matter in the post office at Ash-
Und, Oregon, February 16, 1836, under the act of Congress of
March 3, 1878.
Defense
Some commentators on military affairs seem to think that new wea­
pons and new techniques have made almost all of the old ones obsolete
and that we should completely junk the traditional in favor of the
experimental. As an example, naval surface ships are cited as next-to-
useless relics of the past.
Secretary o f the N avy John L. Sullivan recently answered that by
reminding the country of four past developments which, at one time,
were supposed to drive surface vessels from the seas. The first was ex­
plosive shells of great calibre— but unproved armor plate proved the
answer to that. Then the perfection of the torpedo was heralded as the
death knell of ships— until compart mentation and other forms of anti­
torpedo protection solved the problem. The improved submarine led to
a wide belief that shipping had become too risky and too expensive
to attempt— a claim which was subsequently disproved by such devel­
opments as the depth bomb and other defense measures. Finally, the
aircraft zealots said that the high development of the military plane
rneant that sea power ceased to exist. And that claim, as everyone
knows, was completely disproved by the experience of World War 11
in which surface ships— both transport and combat— played one of
the decisive roles.

tion will not at least partially neutralize their menace. A first-class
fighting-force, even as it works aggressively to develop the new,
must maintain its efficiency and strength in old weapons and ideas
whose decisiveness has been proved time and time again. It must, in
short, be ready for combat of the traditional as well as a revolutionary
character.
Let this thought, then, rest with the sponsors of the recent lec­
tures o f Brigadier General Holdridge in this area. The general, in
opposing Universal Military Training, pointed out that our present
weapons were obsolete and that it would be
the assumption that they would be a defensive
fense,” said the general.

To Clear The Record
*1*^8 Latter Day Saints city directory, which is being printed in
Suiaan, California, will soon be released in this community states
A lvin Bounds, who was in charge in the directory project.
In an article in the Daily Tidings, Bounds is quoted as saying that
the directory is being printed in the California city as there was no
purpose in compiling and distributing the directory was in direct op­
position to Christian beliefs which he personally subscribed to.
The News Review bid on the job and heard no more about it. The
estimate is on file in this office and does not vary from Franklin list
prices, charged by all printing establishments in Jackson county.
Had the order for the directory been placed in an Ashland printing
plant it would have been produced in Ashland.

John Hall, governor of the State of Oregon, stated this week that
"The day when infantile paralysis will be gone,” Hall continued,
"can be brought much closer by contributions to this fight; contri­
butions of money, medical skill and research. The help we can give
now through the March of Dimes will assist in the actual caring for
the thousands who suffer having polio. Research made possible from
these funds will some day find the cause and cure.’
The governor knows well what polio can do to a community. O n­

This is an error as both commercial printing establishments in
Ashland made tentative bids on the job. The Bowdoin Printing com ­

also after study, Joseph Bowdoin considered that the organization’s
