Washington, D. C, Dec. 19. Two
organizations are pulling at congress
and the tug-of-war will become ac
rimonious within a few months. Up
to now one of these organizations,
Defend America By Aiding the Al
lies, has had matters pretty much
its own way it promoted the trade
of destroyers, the sale of planes
(British fliers belittle the airships),
is now advocating the repeal of the
neutrality act and use of American
merchant ships to carry goods to
England with American warships as
guards. Comes now the America
First organization, intended to build
up national defense before sharing
planes, tanks and similar munitions
with the British.
Headman of America First is a
graduate of West Point, a veteran
of World War No. 1, Gen. Robert E.
Wood, top man of Sears-Roebuck.
The general has from time to time
held important positions in the new
deal at $1 a year. A former secre
tary of navy, Charles Francis Ad
ams a former undersecretary of
state, William Castle; Eddie Ricken
backer, war ace; Louis Tabor, head
of the National Grange;( Mrs. Burton
K. Wheeler, wife of the Montana
senator; Mrs. Bennett Clark, wife of
the Missouri senator these are a
few of the people who believe that
America comes first.
Defend America By Aiding the
Allies has among its leaders men
who are advocating that the United
States get into the war, and they are
over the military age, therefore ex
empt. America First also is headed
by men over-age, but opposed to
war. Each outfit has finances and is
grooming for a battle royal when the
new congress meets. America First
is not anti-British but insists that
the United States be safeguarded
before becoming big hearted.
Of $40,000,000 given Civil Aero
nautics Authority for improving fly
ing fields throughout the country
practically 10 has been allocated to
Oregon, Washington and Idaho. Ten
fields in Oregon received $1,912,800;
eight fields in Washington received
$1,392,000, and four fields in Idaho
$440,460. These fields (all municipal)
fit into the program of the army
air corps as the fields will be cap
able of handling heavy bombers as
well as large commercial transports.
Later, navy will be requested to es
talish fields on the coast to service
flying squadrons from the Tongue
Point base.
Because of delay in completing
housing facilities at Fort Lewis the
high command has decided not to
send troops from Wyoming, Califor
nia and Minnesota there until some
time in February. Meanwhile there
is such a rush of mechanics to the
navy yard at Bellingham that the
government is arranging to con
struct hundreds of dwelling units
for the workers. It is estimated that
more than 1,000 have gone from
Oregon to the Bellingham yard.
Illness of Oregon's Senator Mc
Nary, who has been for weeks in a
Salem hospital, has delayed assign
ment of committees to new members
of the senate who were elected last
month aa Republicans. The task of
making committee appointments on
the Republican side rests with the
Oregon senator as leader of the
minority. McNary is being advocated
by new dealers as an ideal selection
for secretary of agriculture, an idea
which meets with favor from Presi
dent Roosevelt, who has a warm
personal regard for the leader of the
"loyal opposition." Senator McNary
would not accept.
With the new congress, Rufus Hol
man, Oregon, may reintroduce his
legislation to curb immigration,
based on the scramble of refugees

More Housing for '
Girls To Be Arranged
Oregon State ' College The state
board of higher education took steps
at a recent meeting to provide more
adequate housing , facilities for wo-1
men at Oregon State college.
With the rapid increase in enroll
ment at the college, the two wo
men's dormitories have been unable
to accommodate those not living in
sororities or in the seven women's
cooperative houses now maintained.
While the board declined to under
take an addition to "Margaret Snell
hall at this time, it arranged for a
study to be made as to the possibil
ities of acquiring, through lease or
purchase, houses that can be opera
ted as dormitory annexes, or ar
ranging through some form of per
manent guarantee to private opera
tors of satisfactory residence homes
for girls.
The possibility of eliminating
graduate students from the halls
will also be studied and discussed
at the January board meeting.
anxious to enter the United States.
Senator Walgreen, Washington, new
elected, is arranging to shift from
the house office building to the sen
ate office building as he takes his
place in "the most deliberative body
in the world."
President Roosevelt, who has been
pallid, ashy-gray, after two weeks at
sea inspecting bases in the Carib
bean returned with a coat of tan.
Although absent from the national
capital, he carried on his '"paper
work" and was in constant touch
with the White House . . . Secret
service operatives, who constantly
guard the President, killed time
fishing from the cruiser . . . Next
move is to guard the Pacific coast
by enabling American warships to
use the Singapore base. Negotiations
are in progress.
Argument to be used in requesting
a beginning on the reclamation end
of the Grand Coulee project is that
the reclamation project acres now in
cultivation yield $37.06 an acre, and
the 1,200,000 acres at Grand Coulee
would furnish homes for migrants
from the dust bowl . . . Head of navy
department complains that defense
production is handicapped by Walsh
Healy bill, which specifies wage
hour provisions in all government
contracts . . . Congress discusses
legislation preventing non-union
men from working on defense or
ders. NOTICE OF SALE OF COUNTY
