AT I 0 N The Woman Who Talked! The story about the group of persons in a railway coach somewhere in our own Northwest when a wom an, talking loudly, proclaimed that she did not care how long the war lasted because her husband was mak ing ten dollars a day and she was making big wages, a new experience for them, is not only applicable to her but to many others. When the middle-aged man con fronted her and slapped her on one cheek with the re- mark that it was for one son killed in Pearl Harbor and then on the other cheek saying that it was for the sec ond son killed at the same place and the silence of ap proval of fellow passengers grew so thick that the un thinking woman left the train represents well another present phase of our daily life. Many are thoughtless of the great tragedies while in the midst of big wages and large profits, and thousands of more patriotic and thinking people are growing more serious and less com placent as the terrible reports of continuous war around the entire globe are reported daily by radio, news com mentators and news columns. The man or woman who makes big wages or heavy profits should stop to think of the heroes that are fall ing from the skies or finding watery graves in all our oceans. He should, at least, save that money to pur chase bonds, or against that rainy day when we must change from a war to a peace basis again. War brings waste in national affairs, but it is despicable for Am erican citizens to gloat over the new opportunities and to spend their money wastefully while our boys fight for $21.00 per month and bleed and die on the battle UMATILLA NEWS our farm exactly By Mrs. Glenn Ostrom Bob Brownell visited his parents.

News papers report nothing, and authority tells nothing. Ru mors report much and these float far and wide; grow bigger with time and distance. So our friends from the big city wanted to see with their own eyes what is what. They also wanted to discover how Hermiston handled 20,000 people last summer, lest they might be called on to take care of a Chicago dumped in on them unpre pared. which is only a relative comparison. They were complimentary enough to say that someone had to do a lot of thinking to handle the job, but were told that it was not one, two or three who did the brainwork, but a whole community working cooperatively to meet the daily emergencies.
