As to Military Training
"To be prepared for war la one of tha most effectual meant
of preferring peace." '
yiTTS familiar ssying by George) Waihington, ii at tras tody
as it was 150 yean ago.
No country in the world ia aa whole-heartedly devoted to
peace, as the United States; not only because it abhors war on
moral grounds, but because it has materially everything to gain,
and nothing to lose, by the maintenance of peace.
With all the world, however, either engaged in war, or pre
paring for it; Europe on one aide of us, Japan on the other;
the Roosevelt administration would be criminally negligent
if it did not put this country in a position to back up its future
peace demands by force.
This is what ia being done. And we believe, only the extreme
pacifists, the fanatical advocates of "peace at any price", can
criticize such action.
IN that preparation a new conception of war service bas been
evolved. We are passionately devoted to peace, but, if world
forces impossible to control should force us into war, every
resource of this country human and material, would be con
scripted, to carry it on, to a successful conclusion. And as far
as it is humanly possible, the profit of war would be taken out
of it.
In other words, in the event

be essentially a democratic war, in which the burden would be

etc.; but by and large it would be a war in which every citizen,

way, and as far as the term can be used, toward anything

Comment
of the
Day s News
By FRANK JENKINS
THESE words are written on Con
stitution Day. after listening ,to
a asrrlea elub addreas by a Southern
Oregon business leader.
Hia talk contained food for serious
thought by all of us In then dis
turbed times when nb one knows one
day what new scheme will be sprung
on us the next. '
THE constitution of the United
States, Mri Howard pointed out,
waa framed by serious, liberty-loving
men who sought ' above all othsr
things to guard the people Of this
new nation .against LOSS of their
liberties.
The framers of the constitution
were wise and able men who had seen
the liberties of common people In
the old world DESTROYED through
seizure of arbitrary power by abso-
Hit monarch.. (Dictators Is the
word we use In thla present-day
world for tha same thing).
These men were determined that
no auch thing should ever happen
In America, and they framed the
constitution accordingly.
e-
UNDER the protection of thla con
stitution, we have built In
America a nation in which common,
ordinary people have a greater meas
ure of liberty and opportunity than
aver was knows In ths world before.
We have reached higher average stan
dards of human comfort and happl-
nesa than the world ever knew before,
So wide have been our liberties ao
great have been our comforts, ao
high have been our standards of llv.
Ins; that distressed people have flock.
ed to our shores from all over the
earth to SHARE our blessings. For
generations, OBTTINO TO AMERICA
has been the greatest good fortune
that could befall th common people
of other lands.
That ts what our constitution has
done for us,
BUT Just OETTINO a constitution
isn't enoueh. If the Hhertu. r
the people are to be preserved, the
constitution muat be RETAINED.
la i'.uriiC tor'.i, cO.liUtulloi.. have
been secured and then LOST. Italy
and Oermany are notable and recent
examples. In Italy and Oermany.
where supreme power has been selred
by dlctatora, the people have NO
RIGHTS which the dictators aro
bound to respect.
That la what happens when con
atltutlons are LOST.
"pUT." you will aay at once, "what
O has hsppened In Italy and Ger
many (and other countries) can't
happen here."
Let's see sbout that.
The supreme court la the Interpre
ter of the constitution. The supreme
court Is composed of nine OLD MEN.
It is quite possible that within ONE
YTAR five of these old men, or a
majority of the court, might die. In
that event, their successors would bo
sppolnted "by the President.
Tha men so appointed would serve
for the rest of their lives.
LET us suppose that In tha year
when these five old men died
the office of President waa held by
a man who waa contemptuous of the
constitution (regarding It, perhaps,
aa a relic of horse and buggy days)
and who deal'red to' change the whole
method of Its Interpretation, ao that
things might be done which the con
stltutlon forbids. (Including In
fringements upon the liberties of the
people). -
Let us suppose alao that at thla
time the congress was composed ol
supine Individuals willing to accept
ANY ACT OR WISH of the President
aa a dispensation from on high, to
be concurred In without debate, and
that these appointments of the Presi
dent were confirmed by the senate.
Suppose, then, that these five men
chose to IONORE the constitution
or to Interpret It strictly according
to the wishes of the President.
IN THAT event, the constitution, so j
far as protection of the rights or
the people are conesrned, would be
DEAD, and we would be dependent
for our llbertlea upon the will of i
dictator.
So, you see, It COULD happen here
e-e
WE HAVE come to take the benefits
received tinder the constitution
tor granted, like ths beneftta of aun- !
shine and fresh air. But. If we be-
come too careless, we coin LOSh
these benefits. Other peoples have.

That la the answer for all of them.
The lists are submitted from time
to time, because the law requlrea,
but the law says nothing about mak
ing the accounting comprehensible.
A common trick of political account,
ante la to refrain from adding up all
the contributions and expenditures.
Another Is to file a separate report
for sach state. A third Is to file an
Incomplete statement and then sup
plemental .ones, switching donations
back and forth between state and na
tional organizations.
Contributions by Individual persons
are obscured In several ways. Most
common method In the latest filings
was to break the total contribution
up Into two to live parts, ll6tlng each
unler the name of an aunt, uncle or
whst-have-you. Thus a S25.000 con
tributor's name may ahow only aa a
S5000 contributor, while his mother-in-law,
married daughter, etc. I are
listed as contributors of the remain
der. Furthermore, the collectors make
the rounds several times among the
ssme people during the course of the
campaign, so It Is impossible to tell
hoi.- much any one really gave until
aflr the final report Is made, after
election.
The accepted method of creating
confusion about expenditures is to
list each of the thousands of Incom
plete payments made weekly out of
the check stub book, Including each
individual salary of office boys, ete
nogs. rent, etc.
Thirty days after election, a corps
of half a dozen accountants may be
able to figure It all out accurately In
a week's time. Until then, the pub
lished figures will continue to repre
sent mainly an effort on the part of
all political organizations to keep
their opponents from finding out
what they are doing.
