used to 'he called the Shssta Limited in the old days. It's now
called merely the Shasta, and as far as speed is concerned is
the limit. Just before we reached Eugene asked the porter if
we were on time. "Oh yes sah," replied the porter, "jes now
we is killing time." That was what provoked the inquiry, the
ironhorse was barely crawling and seemed to have the heaves.
The engineer somehow had let his hand slip and we were ten
minutes ahead of schedule. That would never do. We crawled
majestically into the university city on the dot.

Quite a change in the "Willamette valley in the three weeks
since we came down with Mr. Reynolds, the Camel king's pri
vate car hitched on the rear. Except through the wooded areas
everything is dry and brown. The grain fields that were full
of shocked barley and wheat then are now bare, and the freight
yards north of Eugene, particularly at Junction City, are packed
high with sacks of grain. With dollar wheat plus there should
be considerable money in the Willamette valley this fall.
.....
Two single women of uncertain age back of us talking across
the aisle. One from Texas, the other from Philadelphia. The
Texas woman hails from Dallas and does most of the talking.
She announces the Dallas Centenary the greatest world's fair
ever put on in this country. The Philadelphia representative
doesn't dispute this, but she observes that the Chicago Fair
was not bad, and she thought the San Diego Exposition bad its
points. Mrs. Dallas admitted Chicago had an advantage in
size six or seven times as big as Dallas, and also had a lake
front, but couldn't compare with Dallas in the electrical display
and the fire works. As to San Diego there was nothing to
that but Balboa Park. Had there been some woman from Ft.
Worth, Texas, on board there would probably have been a hair
pulling contest, because Ft. Worth is having a centennial alRO
and the inter city rivalry is said to be keen. But the Philadel
phia woman was not the hair pulling kind. She said she had
never been in Texas and let it go at that.
There is nothing more picturesque and abundant-looking
than a field full of harvested wheat, the shocks scattered evenly
like little tents, this is especially true in the twilight. Cart
that wheat away, and put nothing in its place, and the result is
both dismal and depressing. The woman from Dallas appar
ently noticed this and having
to her native village, remarked
at the heel. She supposed nice
but it was difficult for her to believe it.

he was at the moment immersed in one of the most appealing

who was so obviously attempting a pick up!
.....
The man we had written to for an interview in Albany was
not at home. Yes the letter was received, but he left a week
ago for a long vacation. We phoned tho governor at Salem,
and he was in Portland on his vacation. Wo tried to get his
secretary, and HE was on his vacation. So all we got in Albany
was the radio report of the Louis-Sharkey fight, in the cab of
a luggage truck. The radio announcer certainly did his best
for Sharkey, pinning modals all over him, PARTICULARLY
when he was flat on his back. There was quite a crowd around
tho truck and we could only get a seat in tho outer dress circle,
but distinctly recall the announcer telling how uncertain and
doubtful the Black Bomber looked, and a minute later observ
ing that fighting Jack, DISPLAYING UNEXPECTED STAM
INA AND RING GENERALSHIP, got to his feet at the count
of nine! Had the colored boy not had the NBO hook-up to
fight, as well as the ex-Boston demon, we doubt if the f ig'nt
so called would have lasted over a round.

August is the worst month in the year. As far as we are con

nor good red herring. It isn't summer, and it isn't fall, it has
no character of its own, it's just a stalemate betwixt and be

Comment
oh the '
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS.
THIS uncensorect . dispatch, sent
from Madrid by way of Gibraltar,
la Intereetlng;
"Leaders of the Spanish social -'
1st government, fearing the fall
of the capital (Madrid) were re
liably reported today to be hold
ing three airliners In readiness to
speed their flight at a moment's
notice."
These are the same leaders who
were announcing a few days ago that
collapse of the rebellion was only a
matter of a few hours.
THE point Is that you can't believe
much of what you read from the
seat of war, because too much of It
Is propaganda and too little of It
news. If you are wise, you won't
take too much stock In this allegedly
uncensored dispatch from Madrid.
BOTH sides are reported to be mas
sacrelng prisoners of war In re
taliation for attacks.
.Cynical observers will take these
atrocity stories with a large pinch of
salt. Back In the early days of the
world war, you will remember, the
papers were full of atrocity tales
which later turned out to be largely
Inventions of the propaganda staffs
on both Bides.
It Is at least possible that the same
Is true of these Spanish stories of
murdered prisoners of war.
THE rebels are now accusing the
loyalists of using gas, and assert
ing that they (the rebels) have large
stores of gas on hand, but have re
frained from using It because of the
savage Inhumanity of gas warfare.
The loyaltsts retort hotly that It's U
a wicked lie that they haven't used
gas, but strongly suspect the rebels
of It.
THIS question, quit naturally,
arises In your mind: Just whom
can one believe as to what 1b hap
pening In Spain?
The answer Is that you can't believe
much of ANYBODY, When news Is
censored, propaganda enters In, and
when propaganda enters In at the
door truth takes flight through the
window.
Censored news Is seldom accurate
news.
M
EANWHILE, don't overlook this
dispatch from Rome:
"Well informed sources said
today that Premier Mussolini was
ready to aid Spanish fascists
openly If France continues giving
assistance to the government at
Madrid."
That sounds like an ultimatum.
NEW YORK. Aug. 20. (vPj A spec
ial absentee survey disclosed today
that C69 WPA workers in New York
City were not living in April at the
addresses they had given to the
WPA.
The addresses included vacant lots,

"Not a single person," asserted Col.
B. B. Somervell, city WPA adminis
trator, "got paid for work he did not
do."
Officials at WPA headquarters said
the report, made public by the ad
ministrator after It had been printed
by a New York newspaper, was used
aa the basis for a 40.000 reduction
in WPA rolls effective July 1, as
ordered from Washington.
Representative Joseph W. Martin..

the report showed "gross Inefficiency

Involved. The conflict of Industrial
vedsus craft unionism has roots far
deeper than the political ground
which Is now nurturing It. A decision
is inevitable, but It may require years
instead of months.
Note The effort of Mr. Lewis to
avoid publicity Is what stimulated the
rumors. The personal angle Is that he
will bring back his wife and son, who
are now vacationing in Europe, How
ever, European vacations, even brief
ones, are not considered good pub

Uraguay has been pestiferous about
calling an international confab to
arbitrate the Spanish war. The mat
ter has been annoying to our diplo
matists. They do not want to have
to reject any Ideas like that, especially
from a friendly South American re
public, with the Pan-American peace
conference coming on. Consequently,
they have had tennis dates or swim
ming engagements whenever It ap
peared likely that the Urnguan min
ister might drop around, officially,
and present Tils government's circular
proposal.
But, the other day, Argentina's for
eign minister, Lamas, stepped out wltb
an announcement . that, while the
Idea was "characteristic of the gener
osity of the Uraguayan people, ' It
was an impossible suggestion.
A few hours later, the Uraguayan
minister was cordially received at the
state department here and his pro
posal filed gracefully In the archives.
The Inside on the minor diplomatic
incident Is that It hints at the way
United States and Argentina have
been playing boll together lately.
You may recall that, In the Hoover
days, strong diplomatic animosities
arose between the two countries. But
for the last year or more (since Cha
co), State Secretary Hull and Argen
tine Minister Lamas have been ex
changing signals and working togeth
er like pitcher and catcher.
Mr. Hull Is on record as saying what
a fine foreign minister Mr. Lamas Is,
and Mr. Lamas has returned the com
pliment at least twice.
Their arrangement will probably
prove to be more important soon.
