At present both are realities, but the prevailing wars are minor af- fairs as international conflicts go They are not receiving nearly so much comment as the prospect of another war. That such an event is due to rise over the horizon is a generally ac cepted proposition by those who keep an eye on the world as it whirls around on its axis. Some pro phets are of the opinion that Mars will make an around the world tour most any time. They base their conclusions on the fact that boding clouds overhang the skies of virtu- ally all countries that are in a posi- tion to figure in such an event. Peals of war thunder come from the lips of dictators here and abroad; it is just a matter of how long it will take the rain drops to reach earth, they say. Then there are others who hold the drama is In the offing, placing the day of the opening performance about five years hence. Some facts offered to support this theory is that the world cannot afford a war at present. It is still paying for the one it indulged in some 20 years ago, and the companies who make a busi ness of financing such events are not going to extend any more credit until more of the back debts are paid up. Also it is contended that when there is so much war talk blowing off there is no danger of the boiler bursting, altho others say that a volcano is the proper descriptive metaphor; the rumors of war are harbingers of its approach. It is only a matter of time until the world will be as completely showered with bul lets as Pompeii was with ashes when Vesuvius erupted in 79 A. D. How ever at best such prophesies are theoretical propositions. It will ar rive in due season, but the chances ear that the factors which are bringing It about havenot even been considered by those who have been making calculations. Of course while the soldiers are marking time the munition makers are getting anx- ions for the big parade to start an 1 can be depended on > skill and influence to bring the con filet to a head.

(Paid Adv.) spread over their facee when King Alexander was assassinated, although this event so far has not had enough significance to advance the price of munition stocks a single point. Then there has been a lot of spec ulation as to what kind of a show the next world war will be when it is staged. All are agreed that the drama will be a tragedy, but its ex act nature, how many acts, bow many characters—that is the ques tion. Some predict that it will not be confined to the male members of O. Henry’s "four million," but that “the 400" will fall in the fray as well. In this respect, they say, it will be a sort of a Shakesperian trag edy in which those high in authority will be blotted out. It is argued that the science and art of war has been so perfected that there will be no front line trenches. And if the re ports on the latest models of war juggernauts are correct, this would seem plausible, altho it is hard to feature the DuPonts et al sitting at their desks tilling orders for kill ing devices which would necessitate their wearing gas masks, etc., while doing so. On the other hand there are some who use these very facts to prove that the next war will end about the same time it is declared. The ob ject of fighting, they say. Is to ob tain booty. But if the art of kill ing has been so perfect that mu tual annihilation will take place, there will be no object. Therefore, according to these theorists, the nat ions will get together in a pow pow and agree to hammer the swords in to ploughshares; peace, if not har mony, will be established, and this argument has its plausible aspects. Yet in the heat of rage conse quences are often overlooked. Facts and figures have been carefully com piled to prove beyond all question of doubt that war has always been in the long run a losing proposition for all parties concerned. A review of all wars In which this nation has participated reveals that they have stirred up more issues than they set tled and the issues they did settle could have been peacably negotiat ed. Yet, notwithstanding, another world war is inevitable, or Is it? How Times Have Changed! : ; $ - • I “Train Robbing More Honorable in 1926” : : J J Walter M. Pierce was Governor when Eastern Oregon Normal School located at LaGrande. From The East Oregonian, Wednesday, December 22, 1926. “TRAIN ROBBING MORE HONORABLE” "There is no animosity between Pendleton and LaGrande over the normal school subject nor should there be any. LaGrande is a good town inhabited by good people and no one has made any contentions to the contrary. "But the problem of locating a normal school for eastern Oregon is a matter that should be handled independently of the Interests of any community. The normal school regents are un der oath to serve the students who come under their jurisdiction. It is a very high obligation; a man who is not ready to comply with his obligations, regardless of personal interests, Is not fit to be a member of any board of regents. That goes and the sub ject is not debatable any more than is bank robbing debatable. "The East Oregonian is indignant about the normal school decision, not because LaGrande was chosen, but because this pa per is convinced beyond any doubt that the decision was brought about by improper methods. On the face of things there was something wrong. Advance stories that the thing was all fixed and would be carried out, merit or no merit, have been confirmed In detail. The finger of suspicion points plainly to the door of Governor Pierce and the suspicion is general in LaGrande as well as elsewhere. "In plain English a swindle Is contemplated against the fu- ture school girls of eastern Oregon and sportmanship does not require that anyone keep silent when a plot of that sort is afoot. Most of the prospective normal school students of eastern Oregon reside in the 12 counties west of the Blue mountains. The heavy population is there and It always will be found in that part of the district. If these girls are forced to go to LaGrande for nor mal training they will be subjected each year to a minimum un necessary expense of $21.44 for train fare alone. If they eat while traveling or pay Pullman charges their expenses will be still further increased. It is the literal truth, which no one has denied or can deny, that the location of the school in LaGrande places upon students from the major part of the district an ex tra expense burden equal to the cost of living for a month at a dormitory. Such a load If imposed will compel many a good student to go home before her normal training has been com pleted. To a student who is self supporting, or partly so, a $10 bill often seems as big as a house. Every year In Oregon hun dreds of students are forced out of our higher institutions of learning by inability to meet a month’s board bill. "When they voted at Salem Monday five of the normal school regents, led by Governor Pierce, overlooked the one phase of their duty that should have counted with them above all other considerations whatsoever. If that sort of stuff is to be tolera ted and continued by people in high places in Oregon it will be proper for our people to repeal the law against train robbing.” HOW TIMES DO CHANGE! Now, with the same Walter M. Pierce, candidate for Con gress, The East Oregonian of October 17, 1934, says: “Mr. Pierce Has Pronounced Personal Ability "Mr. Pierce is entitled to a second term and the district Is entitled to the advantages that will accrue through his reelect ion.” The aged Mr. Pierce is now acceptable to The East Orego nian, but with his oratory, hand-shaking and promises, promises, HE'S STILL THE SAME OLD WALTER!
