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

To See What They Could See
A group of 26 Portland business men, en bus, came
east of the Cascades this week to see what they could
see, beyond the 300-mile coast defense limit. 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.
