This was the day Italy was

into the European war, and has
fulfilled all the predictions by
not doing so, though flambuoy

Ethiopia, and no son of II Duce
thinks it woUd be "glorious'

There will be a rising clamor

The bailiwick of brimstone
Was designed for normal mean
ness. And provision was omitted
For the proper recompense
Of men who slaughtered nations,
Who out-deviled kindly Satan
He will probably call a sit-down
And a parley will commence;
I feel sorry for the devil
When he faces that assembly
For they'll liquidate his forces
And they'll shame his ruddy hide
They will confiscate his ovens
And play hell with ancient bor
ders
And he'll either heii and Hitle
Or they'll take him for ridel"

regarding Italy, Musselini is still playing the
role of the jackal, making a great howl about what
he is going to do to the British lion, but with no inten

passed.
When the death rattle in tha throat of the badly
battered king of beasts is heard, if it ever is, then
II Duce will jump in with a great blare of trumpets,
and claim his share of the corpse.
It certainly is the most sordid and ignoble role ever
played by a civilized nation in the memory of modern
man.
DUT there is no doubt it has been extremely useful
to Hitler. Because of Mussolini's attitude, the
French and British fleet had to be concentrated in the
Mediterranean, and hundreds of thousands of troops
kept along its shores, when they were acutely needed

claimed a million British and allied troops were

The Spy Mania
Lord deliver us In mercy and wisdom from tha hysteria
and folly that descended upon this nation when we entered
the World warl In those days suspicion and hate were in
the air. Many a sturdy, thrifty German with slightly
broken accent was suspected and treated cruelly without
that Justice and fairness which should have protected him
in America under our free institutiona.
In the spy hunt that now is gathering, let us remember
the follies, the madness, the wickedness and the injustice
we visited upon Innocent men and women 20 years ago and
more. War is hell, but is hell necessary behind the lines?
Can't we remember that after all, every man la entitled to
fair trial by a Jury of his peers? Can't we hold our in
dignation until a man has been indicted and faces his ac
cuser in open court? Why should we wipe out, when war
is even a thousand miles away, those kindly, neighborly
guarantees of tolerance that are written in the Bill of
Rights?

The One Great Need
WHEN H. R. Knickerbocker, the well known war
uiiio'vnuiiLi v,tic in
ago, he declared it was a 60
win the war.
Since then he has been
the western front, and what he has seen there has
apparently changed his mind.
e quote from his latest dispatch:
Nobody can deny that the Germans have won successes,
but it is necessary to come here to the front to realize how
costly they have been and that if the French could only get
the essentially necessary planes and tanks, and if they can
hold out until it is possible to get them. Chancellor Hitler s
gigantic gamble of the destiny of Germany, Europe and the
world upon one vast battle may lose.
The next two or three weeks msy determine whether
the Germans, with their vastly heavier masses of plsnes and
tanks, csn crush the French to such an extent that any
Amerlran assistance proffered later would be futile. One
high French officer said to me Monday:
"One American airplane sent now would be worth ten
sent In six weeks or 100 In six months."
Nothing need be added to that to show that the
first imperative need in America's defense program
is not to rearm ourselves, but to somehow, somewav.

which fails to sterilize.
Investigation In a great many
such places for dispensing foods
snd beverages has shown - that
the essentials for reasonable
cleanliness and safety are, first,
washing such utensils with hot
water and soap, second rinsing
in fresh clean water and finally
rinsing in a solution of 100
parts chlorine per million of
water. If the first essential Is
neglected, the utensils are quite
likely to carry harmful bacteria
to the mouths of unsuspecting
customers.
In many of the quick lunch
places and beverage dispensing
places Investigated it was
found that the provisions for
cleanliness and safety failed to
come up to the minimum re
quirement. Particularly unsani
tary in this respect were eating
and drinking places where the
dishes, knifes, forks, spoons,
glasses were washed in a single
sink. It is necessary to have
double sinks, one for soap and
water washing, the other for
rinsing, in order to maintain a
fair degree of sanitary clean
liness in such public eating and
drinking places,
These minimum essentials of
cleanliness and safety ahould be

uncomfortably Impressed by the
extraordinary lack of decent fa

mention comfort, provided by

hotels. The blame for this be
longs largely to that portion of
the traveling public which re

Communications
"Kidding Ourselves."
To the Editor:
Your editorial of May SI was
timely. We Americans are en
gaged extensively in "kidding
ourselves."
In the days of old-fashioned
war, we conquered decadent
Spain. In the days of partly
modernized war, we helped con
quer Germany. Now, therefore,
we are prone to assume that
America is invincible: able even
to defend a hemisphere, with a
miniature army, air force ditto,
and navy just fair. Uncle
Sam's frowns and warnings no
longer have much effect on ag
gressor nations. In fact, the
world now realizes that Amer
ica is running some gigantic
bluffs. The most amazing was
our assuming authority over a
300-mile belt of both oceans
from Canada to Cape Horn.
International law? Hardly.
True, 21 nations joined in that
bluff; but whose navy is sup
posed to enforce It? Uncle
Sam's, of course. If Hitler
seizes the Bahamas, we will
probably send him another "pro
test" to paste In his joke book.
But our pet bluff is the Mon
roe .Doctrine. It was a good
thing when promulgated, and
for a century thereafter. And
now we "kid ourselves" that
It is as good as ever. But like
the powder-horn, its day Is past.
In April, 1939, we urged that
It be junked. We now urge It
with redoubled emphasis. We
then said that It might involve
us in a gigantic war within
ten years. We now say within
five, maybe two, years.
America could not deliver
the goods. Furthermore, why
should we? Argentina is al
most twice as far from us as
England, and not one tenth as
important to us. We spend
many billions getting ready to
defend Brazil. Argentina, Chill,
etc. How many billions are
THEY investing In battelships
and bombers, for self-defense?
Their main reliance will be
Uncle Sam's ships and money.
If Hitler now wins, he will
doubtless take the English navy.
Then he could quickly land a
huge mechanized force In Pata
gonia, and with a "blizkricg to
the north could overwhelm Ar
gentina before we could get
halfway there with the first
division.
Our big promises to South
America would prove as humil
iating a fizzle as England's
promises to Poland, Norway
and Holland.
If real war hits this hemi
sphere, the good strategy of
Monroe's day would spell dis
aster in our day. Junk it, and
JUNK IT NOW.

Book Reviews
A brand new type of highway
man emerges from the pages of
a brief book of essays entitled
"Horse and Buggy Essays", writ
ten by Charles A. Brand, of
Roseburg. and published by Bin
fords and Mort of Portland. This
is the highwayman-de-luxe, who
conducts such a "Wayside Inn".
as Mr. Brand has conducted for
reveral years, on Highway St) 1
near the banks of the Umpqua 1
and the interesting and amusing
experiences he has had with
those who stop to "bide a wee"
for purposes of refreshment and
otherwise.
As the publishers observe on
the cover, books of essays are
not common these days, and
these unpretentious but amusing
and original comments, by a for
mer state representative and
veteran member of the state
board of higher education are
all the more refreshing because
of that fact.
Many of the "older boys and
girls", fortunate enough to se
cure a volume, will undoubtedly
give a sigh of nostalgic regret
as they come to the close, thst
the author had not continued
for at least 79 pages more.
In addition to the Highway
