LEAD RETAIL TRADE IN
WEEK'S SALE INCREASE
NEW YORK, Sept. 22. AP)
With seasonal influences making for
expansion, the past week's - retail
trade was estimated 6 to 14 percent
larger than in the corresponding per
iod last year, the Dun & Bradstreet
weekly review said today,
"Sales Increases were featured," the
review reported, "by a heavy demand
for apparel and accessories, lines
which had been hit hardest by the
record heat wave in some sections In
the previous week.
"Reports from wholesale markets
Indicated that although the forward
buying wave had passed Its peak
order volume remained substantially
above last year. Most lines continued
to have the appearance of a sellers
market.
"In many instances wholesalers
were refusing bookings at present
prices lor shipment mora than two
or three weeks in the future. Deliv
eries became more of a problem as
mill backlogs grew and distributors
found difficulties In obtaining mer
chandise within the specified period."
DEAN OF STATE AIDES
IS KILLED IN TRAFFIC
SALEM, Sept. 22. (pi Oeorge Al
len Nye, 78, who worked longer for
the state of Oregon than any other
person, was killed this afternoon
when struck by a truck driven by
Joe Swelgert of Salem.
Nye. a mall messenger for the
state capltol. retired last March 31.
after serving the state 33 years.
He was walking across the street

HEAVY INCREASE
E
PORTLAND, Ore.. Sept. 22. (AP)
Reports from 113 mills showed last
week's new business of 109.390.000
board feet of lumber was more than
20.000,000 feet higher than the pre
vious week, the Western Pine asso
ciation said today.
Activity during the earlier period
was less primarily because of the
labor shutdown.
Shipments totaling 76.683.000 feet
nnd pod notion of 85,284.000 feet were
substantially higher than the prev
ious week. Orders, shipments and
production were substantially In ad
vance of the corresponding week last
year.
To date, orders were 13 percent
and shipments 11 percent above 1938.
Why is the president so excited
about selling war munitions to the
belligerents? Is he. relying upon this
to bring back prosperity? Or Is he
catering to big business? I would
like to write more but space forbids.

Communications
Mr. Lindbergh's Speech
To the Editor:
I was glad to read your com-
i ment on Colonel Lindbergh's speech.
They co-lnclde with my views.
I Lindbergh, from the time he be
: came famous for his splendid deed
! which, coming at the time it did.
held promise that ho might be
; come one of America's foremost lead
j ers. but what do we find?
He has become the world's man
i of mystery, and slnca the awful
crime (committed by a German, by
the way) which drew to Mr. Lincl
i benjn the sympathy of every rlght
! thinking American. Mr. Lindbergh
has hidden behind a mask of se
crecy, and distrust of the American
people which has made a great many
! distrust him. (To say the least).
' Mr. Lindbergh did not think Amer
ica was a safe place to live In so
he went to Europe, where he made
nn enemy of Russia, a friend of
Germany, and gave England and
Prance the Jitters, when It seemed
that war was certain, he returned
, and In a most mysterloua manner
; surrounded by secrecy, made a most
Impassioned apeech urging America
to keep out of the war, and accused
his former friends of greed, selfish
ness and about everything else that
could be aald publicly, and asks us
to consider, and look behind every
j piece of propaganda, every speech,
and every picture.
I Let us begin with him. Could It
, be possible that his apeech Is
piece of expert propaganda? Could
his statement about German air
power have had any special slgnlfl
cance? Is he Interested In keeping
us out of war with Germany? No
body knows but Mr. Lindbergh and
he won't tell.
I do not want this country to go
to war with any nation, but we are
free, white and twenty-one, and do
not need any oceana to hide behind
and should be cspable of handling
any situation with pride and honor,
neither do we have to take any
"saBs" from any nation, but if we
decide not to meddle, then let us
lor heavens sake," refrain from of
fering any other nations any advice
as to what they should do.

frill MnWl" GENERAL MOTORS VAIUI V
Peace?
To the Editor:
Considering the reams written
about peace, why haven't w at
tained a state of peace? To the
analytical mind most of our peace
is the Hp ervice variety.
Until the mass mind understands
the atomic structure of matter, and
applies the principle of the dif
ferential calculus to our social and
economic structure, we will continue
with our fratricidal economic strug
gle. If war la first an invisible electric
Impulse, or Ideation. In the mind of
man, and were never allowed to
manifest in the material, peace would
then be the natural sequence.
Since peace U alio a state of
mind, peace should be easily attain,
able, if we were really peace minded.
Undoubtedly the lip service pacifists
predominate, in their conversation
they are discussing the beatitudes
of peace, and the horrors of war.
when someone suddenly remarks, we
can sell material and supplies to the
oemgerent nations, through the back
door, so to speak.
Their vibratory rate immediately
changes to inward gloating, as they
picture in their mind's eye the fat
profits; said profits will have most
of the stench of putrid human fUesh
and blood removed, via the back
door, as it were.
But Alas! They forget the law.
The mills of the Gods grind slowly.
while the hand of Karma turns the
wheel I
This should be Indisputable proof
they are Up sen-Ice pacifists to the
Nth degree. Their motto should read
"My profit right or wrong; my
profit I"
Referring to the Oood Book, we
read: "If any man profess to love
God and bates his brother, he Is a
llarl"
Peace must predominate in the
minds of men before It can mani
fest In the physical, which brings
us to Hermes Law, "As above, so be
low 1"
