The whole undertone of world relations is undergoing a subtle change. It started with in the past 30 days when the Japanese decided to buy out the' Russian half In terest lnuhe Chi nese Eastern rail way. Our diplo mats doubted at llrst that reports of the purchase could be true. They knew., very well that the Jap anese never Up v i?. Y ,m J&l :k Paul Mauon would lay out a50.000.000 for the rail way if thry intended to have war with Russia anytime Boon. By merely de claring war, the Japanese could take the railway for nothing. Apparently, the wise men of Toklo decided to purcha5e a temporary peace in their rear for 50.000.000 so they could face eastward to their adversaries- across the sea. You can are what that means plenty of trouble in the impending London naval discussions. Also, that Russia can relax her military pressure on the Manchurlan border and pay more attention to Mr. Hitler and the Poles. Which will cause Mr. Hitler t0 give some thought to his eastern frontier, thus relaxing his pressure on Prance. You may have noticed the front page squawk by the Japanese mili tarists the other day. demanding thousands more planes. The little railway news la behind that also. The Japanese militarists knew very well that the Japanese naval faction is going to get the upper hand In Toklo out of this railway deal. A war with Russia would be a' long war. If it becomes less Imminent, army ex penses will be cut down and the money will go Into ships. Now. no one on the Inside here be lieves that railway deal will prevent an ultimate war. What they do be lieve Is that It will delay the war at least three more years. That Is delay enough to permit Japan to carry out her naval building intentions. CARDS GET EARLY LEAD AND FORCE BRIDGESJ QUIT Triple by Greenberg in Third Scores Lone Tally for De troit Paul Dean Dupli cates Older Brother's Feat The preliminary naval conversa tions at London two weeks hence are regarded privately as hopeless. There Is every reason to expect that the Japanese will demand parity, or, at the very least, a blpger cruiser ratio. Britain will take the lead In declin ing, but she will have the backing of the United States, Italy and France. After a few sharp words, everyone will go home and build more ships. Norman Davis nearly let the cat out of the bag the other day. He la the most optimistic man In the world He has to be. or he would not still be working for disarmament. But. when someone naked him It he would take any naval experts to London for the conversations, he replied: "You hot. I need all the troops I can get." He might truthfully have added: " and then some." SPORTSMAN'S PARK, ST. LOUIS.

Step Foreshadowed This stop, foreshadowed in President Roosevelt's speech last Sunday night, was hinted yesterday in a talk by Donald Rlchberg. now ktngpln In the recovery drive. The Intention apparently Is to rely more on other provisions of codes such as minimum wages and maxi mum hours to prevent the rule of "tooth and fang" which ha been blamed for sweatshops and cut-throat competition. In advocating a "sound competitive system." Rlchberg quoted from an ar ticle he wrote for Fortune magarlne. He said : Business Disillusioned "I think many businessmen that came down hero determined upon production control and price control which they thought were essential to their safety and would produce them profits, have been seriously disillus ioned in the course of the year - disillusioned partly a to the prac tical possibility of carrying out their desires and disillusioned a to whether they really want them car ried out.

Completely fatigued from continu ous walking, hunger ana thirst, T. Hale, Medford gardener, aged 70. found his way Into camp In the Gree nap rings mountains this morn ing at 7:30, after wandering through the forest since 6:30 a. m. Tuesday. Hale became separated from hunting companions on Little Chinquapin or Crane mountain, two milea from an Improvised camp on Crane prairie. With only one fire, built In an aban doned ca-bln Tuesday night with a one and only match, with no food, and without water since Wednesday, the aged man walked in circles In a three-mile radius, before finding his own camp and two searchers. Shelva Hale. 40. a son, and Frank Saunders, a neighbor. Word that Hale had been found reached Medford In time to head off stato police and volunteers, who were preparing to Join the search. Hale was brought to Medford Immediately and was able to walk Into his home at 1503 Ridge Way, where he waa greet ed by a rejoicing family. Famished Tram lack of food ad weary from walking, he was put Immediately to bed for the rest that will undoubt edly save his life. Hale was last seen by his two sons, Shelva and Joe, aged 43. and a third companion from Talent, on the slopes of Little Chinquapin mountain. The party, together with Edward Borg of Talent, had started out ahorly before on he first day of the expedition, Borg having separated and followed a neighboring ridge. Shelva and Joseph said their father waa walking about 60 yards farther down the slope when the party started back toward camp. Falling to hear the shout from his two sons, but turning his head in such a manner, that lead Shelva and Joseph to believe that he had heard them, the aged man continued on ah angle down the slope, in the black ened timber of a recent burn. He saw two other hunters, below him, who were reported to have come from Klamath, and becoming con fused in direction, made his way to ward them, believing them to be members of hU own party. Reaching them. Hale aald he believed himself to be lost, but stated later that the two men only pointed the way to Crane prairie, and went on. After this time Hale became more confused as he proceeded, wandering until dark ness, when he happened onto an abandoned forester's cabin. Clad only In light ahlrt and overalls, he built a fire in the cabin, using his only match. After spending the night as coin fortably aa possible. Hale set out ngaln early Wednesday morning, when he found his last drinking water. H wandered the following two days an-1 nights without shooting or finding anything edible, apparently wjttjtq a short distance of camp and Iks searching companions. His two sons and their companions continued to their camp and finding their father missing, Immediately cet out again firing shot until late Tuesday night. Due to slight deafness, Hale did not hear the shots, and .the occasional shots from his own rifle also remained unheard. After renewing the sea roh early Wednesday morning, flhelra and Jo seph came to Medford for aid, leaving their two companions and two neigh boring hunters, men named Parker and Oden. both of Ashland, who h'd Joined Hale'a party. Sergeant Ed Walker and Deputy Sheriff George Inlow accompanied the two men back, to determining the true situation before organising a larger aearchlng party.
