Have to withdraw cer tain aspersions regarding the Eastern radio. The trouble in Roi-kford wan not geographical but. mechanical. Reception wns OK but the family radio wasn't. Here, witli a pretty poor hotel contraption we can get anything in the country, including Hollywood. So we were able to hear Der Fuehrer, without changing our usual schedule. Merely turned the switch at 7 a. m. when we awoke, and there he was with some "pleasanter" voiced gentle man supplving a running, but rather abbreviated, translation. J'erhaps if one understands German, Hitler over the air wouldn't be so infuriating. But, as before noted, Der Fuehrer when brondrnsting doesn't sound like a human being but some sort of animal, lashing his tail and clawing the bars of his cavre, in an impotent fury. When the complete translation finally came in, were surprised at the comparatively conciliatory spirit of the harangue, in fact barring certain glaring inconsistencies, the address might be used for further negotiations, if the allies should be so disposed. But they probably won't be. As before stated, fundamentally, this conflict abroad is for the control of Kurope. Perhaps we are unduly pessimistic we sincerely hope so, but it is our judgment, there will be no serious peace talk, until either one side or the other is beaten, OR a stalemate of SEVERAL YEARS has led to mutual exhaustion. It's madness of course. but once unleash the dogs of war and what else can yon expect? . ' Hitler's most glaring inconsistency 'would be amusing, if such a mentality in control of the destinies of 80 million people, wasn't so tragic. This was his statement, professing to grant Ihe futility of war and his overwhelming desire for peace, which concluded somewhat as follows: " lyct those who consider war to bo the better solution, reject my outstretched hand!" This, mind yon, only five or six weeks, after the speaker had FORCED England and France to go to war, to protect a country which Hitler has completely crushed through. the USIi of war I How can peace, or anything else, be discussed with a man who thinks like that? It is like a gangster, cutting the throat of his victim, and then when surrounded by the police, asking to be given his freedom because he doesn't believe crime ever pays! . Through some serious oversight we have failed to comment recently upon that all-absorbing topic, about which so little is (lone, the weather. A week tomorrow since wo arrived. Half of it was terrible, rain and fog; the other half charming, real summer, around 80 in the shade at noon, which is the case today. 1'rctty hot for football but as congress has adjourned have de cided to hop down to Annapolis and see the navy have a work out, with Virginia. Later : This is ten hours later, 9:30 p. m., Saturday night. Did we say "workout?" Well there were no setting-up exercises as far as tho Navy was concerned, in fact the midshipmen were lucky not to join Minnesota and Northwestern (Yes and Stan ford i) in another sensational upset. If one of the Virginian guards hadn't lost his "gentlemanly" temper and kicked one of the Navy lads in the ribs, the score would have been Virginia 12, Navy 7. For that unnecessary roughness put the Navy on tho one-inch line, and gave them a touchdown, which we doubt if tliey would ever have earned. At least for three-quarters' of the game they were able to gain ground up to ten or fifteen yards of the goal line, but no further. We have never paid much attention to Virginia in football, but will hereafter, this year certainly have a fine team. We used the term "gentlemanly" in the preceding para graph advisedly, for if you don't happen to know it, the Uni versity of Virginia at Charlottesville makes a specialty of educating "gentlemen," or educating young mon to HE "gentlemen," which of course isn't the same thing. Yes, we learned all about it on the trip down. For the bus was sprinkled with boarding school girls and two of them sat directly behind us, talking a blue streak until we hauled up a! Carvel'l Unll, which is tho famous ami extremely attractive hotel, opposite the Naval Academy. And the one with the dulcet and honeyed southern accent was telling her classmate, from the "nnwth" all about it, why she was going to cheer for " Vah-gin-yah ", and not for the Navy although some of the midshipmen were "darling." Rut Virginia is the only college left in America that turns nut gentlemen, and she thought it therefore deserved the sup port of all right thinking citizens of this great country, par ticularly the women, for if something were not done there wouldn't be any real gentlemen left in the United States, and what would a self-respecting and well bred woman do then',' The girl from the "nnwth" seemed duly impressed but she didn't promise to cheer for either team, she was going on a "blind date," from the Naval Academy, and she really couldn't get up much enthusiasm for football, anyway doubted if she ever would, all she hoped for was that the "middy" would be exciting.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 11. The most astonishing result of the arms em bargo fight may well be the destruc tion of the conservative coalition In congress. Right and left wing Democrats are now fighting side by side for repeal of the embargo. The issue offered a face-saving oppor tunity for the. two groups to forget their bitter differences. The oppor tunity has been seized and Improved upon by thV president In a very tangible way. Through such Intermediaries m the astute Senator James P. Byrnes of South Carolina, something very like a tentative peace has been arranged with the conservative Democrats. There matter ara delicate and the new development may be denied for tho record. Tho only object I to prevent a repetition of last winter's angry scenes on the hill. And the fundamental split In the party Is not affected. The peace terms have not even been specifically defined, yet they are quite well enough under stood on both sides to be summarlred rather definitely: 1. No controversial domestic meas ures, such as another spending bill, are to be presented either to the special or rtyular session of con grew. 3 The mood of the 103d purge Is to be forgotten, and the right j .vi t'Mi-Hiiii inn iu iJvimvrniic parry mcmbvrship la to be fully acknowf- j tx!i:cd i 3.

Nevertheless, barring the unfore seen, the peace has a good chance to be fairly enduring. Taking the terms in their order, it now seems probable that controversial domestic measures will. In fact. h nvnirun both at the special and regular ses- sions. The matter deserves much , greater elaboration, but it will suf I flee to say that, so long as the I current business boom continues, ieven the moat ardent new dealers will probably be content to let well , enough alone. I Only time can tell whether there re io dp no new white rabbits, Concrete proof has already been given that the mood of the puree has passed, at least temporarily. Several senatorial conservatives who are running next year have received carefully phrased Intimations, thru a third party, that the president "hope to be able to support them. 1 A number of petty but cankerous patronage squabbles have been straightened out. Furthermore, the broad principle of "liberalizing- the Democratic party by all available means was suddenly and completely abandoned in the matter of the 1940 census. The census takers are an ancient nntrnn- age perquisite of members of con- ' gress belonging to the party in pow- i er. Some mention has alreadv been made of the administration willing ness to let even the most conserva tive Democrats name the census tnkers in their states. What actually happened was that a school-full of census inspectors of "liberal" or new dealish stripe hud already been recruited by the corn- Some people wait until a friend tells them what a grand whiskey this is . . . KNOWN combimtion Ddl seo3 Riffpr? BRANDtlliy mere department when a group of senators headed by Clyde L. Herring of Iowa, protested agrlly to tho con gressional leadership. The protest was passed on by the White House, and even such anciently proscribed law-makers as Edward Burke of Ne braska had the novel sensation of being telephoned by the new deal undercover man, David K. Nlles, and told that they might write their own ticket. Finally, there Is every reason to suppose that ht altered system of dealing with congress, as exemplified In the embargo fight, has proved surprlalnly pleasing to the presi dent. He has said as much on sev eral occasions, and the word now Is that, In order to mark the system's permanence, Senator Byrnes may be named assistant majority leader. The first real split between the president and the conservatives came over Sen ator Alben W. Bark'.ey' election to the majority leadership. Byrnes waa Pat Harrison's leading supporter In that fight, and, as Bark ley's coadjutor, he would be a living testimonial to the new era, as well as a remarkably able legisla tive manager and llason officer be tween the party groups. These signs must be taken to mean that the mlllenium has ar rived. Men like Bennett Clark of Missouri, and Burton K. Wheeler of Montana, do not agTee with the pres ident's foreign policy, and are not in cluded In the peace. Certain others, like Carter Glass and Harry P. Byrd. of Virginia, have probably broken too completely with the president to want any part of a real united front. Yet, these are minor quali fications, if the peace terms are abided by (and the "if" la a big one), the Republican are likely to have to fight their congressional bat' ties without extensive Democratic aid. At The National Capitol with John W. Kelly (Continue from Page One.)

FRUIT growers of Oregon-Washington orchards have something new to worry about a proposed trade agreement with Chili, Secretary Hull's plan ia the seasonable Importation of fruits and vegetables. "In fact," says solemn Mr. Hull, "the chief pur pose which might be served by the proposed agreement would be to make It easier for our consumers, the poor as well as the rich, to obtain supplies of fresh fruits and vegetables the S'car round." Here are the fruits which compete with Pacific northwest products: ap ricots, grapes, peaches, plums, prunes (green, ripe or In brine), pears, mel ons. With the exception of melons, present rate of duty Is one-half cent per pound; grapes are 35 cents per cubic loot. Vegetable competition: onions, dried beans, garlic. Practically the only fruit, In fact all the fruits, listed for discussion are important crops In Oregon and Washington. Pears, prunes, plums, peaches and apricot (all surplus crops now and tons distributed to the needy bv Uncle Sam), are threat ened from Chili.

That recalls the French statement, made Just ahead of Hitler's march Into Poland, that "this horlble cari cature of peace Is worse than war." IT may be taken for granted that every Briton and every Frenchman would welcome peace, but It seems reasonably certain that any peace made now would be only a caricature. H' ITLER'S obvious purpose Is to separate France from Britain. With that Idea In mind, he has been waging one of the world's politest wars against the French. If you will read Daladler's speech, you will find little In It to Indicate that Hitler's scheme will be successful. Britain and France know they have to stick together. MEANWHILE, watch Russia as Hitler Is undoubtedly doing Russia threatens Britain and France publicly, but when Hitler Intimates a German-Russian military alliance the soviet ambassador in London privately tells the British Russia will remain neutral. Russia goes ahead seizing strategic advantages in the Baltic that will be of Immense value to her If she should go to war against GERMANY but will be of little advantage if she contemplate war against Britain. Every move Russia has made has strengthened her hand for an ulti mate showdown with Hitler. ACTTRIOUS dispatch from London, which Is passed by the British censor (thus Indicating that It Is not opposed to British policy), as serts on the now familiar authority of "Informed sources" that France has advised China to make peace with the Japs. If there 1 anything to this story, It means that more schemes are afoot. The Intention, probably, Is to bribe Japan away from Germany and Russia, giving her a free hand in China In return for at least neutral friendliness to Britain and France. In a world war, you can expect anything. THE news from the military front remains uninteresting, because the fighting Is still being done by the diplomats.
