PAGE SEVEN RED CROSS QUO Returns From Neighbor Communities Expected to Carry Fund Over $3,000 Jackson county's quota of $2,400 for European Red Cross relief has been reached, Ben E. Harder, chairman of the roll call drive reported here today. Harder said the major por tion of the allotment has been derived from Medford subscrip tions and contributions alone and that returns from other sec tions of the county should swell the fund considerably above $3,000. Reports from commu nity headquarters established in a number of sections at the inau guration of the drive have not yet been received here, but are expected within a short time. Ashland's quota and funds from the south and east portion of the county are expected to total approximately $500. Sub chairmen in the prospect region and also in the areas surround ing Rogue River have unof ficially indicated that their re turns will be above allotments. Cooperation Lauded Mr. Harder lauded the co operation of civic and service clubs during the drive. He de clared that residents of the county as a whole, had respond ed with whole-hearted support and added that the subscriptions were being dispatched to Pacific coast headquarters for transmis sion to the war-stricken coun tries. The drive itself Is being con tinued. Harder said that the re cent announcement doubling the county quota to $4,800 was not being officially recognized, but that efforts would be continued to boost the returns over the specified amount.

FIRE GUARDS GET INTENSIVE DRILL Preliminary arrangements for a timber cruise in the Rogue River National forest near Union Creek were being com pleted today as 10 forestry stu dents from Oregon colleges pre pared to launch a two months summer drive. Camp has been established. temporarly, approximately two miles east of Prospect under di rection of Ray W. McClane. Junior forester from the Port land regional office. The cruise itself was ordered to determine extent of marketable timber in the area, preparatory to map ping of plans governing conser vation and sales. The camps will be shifted from time to time as the work progresses, headquarters here stated. The students receive college credit for their summer work. Fred W. Mats from the re gional forester's office in Port land who was here late last week to supervise initial prepa rations, has returned to the northern office. AT THE National Capitol WITH John W. Kelly CONTINTJTD FROM PAGE ON LF A light frost, unusual for this time of year, was noted in the Rogue River valley this morning, but there was no damage to crops, according to Rogert G. Fowler, county agent. Fowler re called that 13 and 14 years ago, when the state National Guard encampments were held here, some of the warmest weather on record prevailed in this sec tion the first week of June. So far the mercury this year has not risen above 91 degrees. The county agent reports the first cutting of grain will be within the next week or ten days, and that some of the grain is beginning to turn brown. The cool weather has retarded the growth somewhat, and consider able hay is down and not curing fast In the mild weather. The week-end rain was beneficial to most crops.

To get the significance of this, remember that last year con gress denounced a proposal to permit the navy to sell a few obsolete warships to a South American country. After a heart-to-heart talk by higher ups with administration lieu tenants in congress, that legisla tive body completely reversed itself, and the about-face at tracted no attention. Another clue is found in President Roosevelt's request for authority to call on the National Guard and Chief of Staff Marshall's statement that without such authority it would be impossible to send any Na tional Guard unita to assist regulars in any possible situa tion that might arise in tnis hemisphere. CLUB NO. 1 hint that the United Sulci is ready to coop rata in enabling the "good nelghbora" to tha aouth to acquire derenae material. Clue Mo. a la a broad bint that the regular army, asalated by the national guard, will be dispatched to the scene of trouble when and If It developa. Clue No. S was when the United States built the f Inert manalon In Liberia for Its mission. Liberia Is nearer South America than Portland la from Chicago. Other cluea: Military missions sent to eeveral Latin American countries, where they worked out defense plana JUST to keep the record straight It should be understood that not all the Latin republics admire the United States; one or two are poal tlvely antagonistic, yet under the Monroe Doctrine. Uncle Sam la re sponsible for their defense whether or not they wish to be defended from Hitler. Another matter which is not fool ing the war department la the known presence of a "fifth column" In BftOMT HffiW PAY MONTHLY! There's as 4 fee yoa f ew lWe s a We aayiaaa.

One country is in the hands of communis ta. These are matters which complicate the situation. THERB are one or more national guard armories In every con gressional district, or If a district Is too small (aa In congested New York districts) there ere at least guards '. men. This makes the president's re quest very Important to every mem ber of the house of representatives. It brings home to the parents and relatives of guardsmen the possibili ty of the guardsmen being sent out of this country to fight on foreign soil, foreign even though a part of this hemisphere. This makes It a life subject from Baker to Ashland. from Astoria to Salem, wherever there Is an armory or a member of the national guard. Expls nations may be made that the guard would be used to patrol plants where there are munitions being manufactured (munitions meaning everything in the national defense program) to prevent sabot age such as the watch kept at the shipyards during the first world war, but that Is not whst General George C. Marshall, chief of staff, said. And. of course, there Is the possibility of the guard being used In Canada or Greenland's ley mountains, or Alaska, or the Canal Zone. a HITLER'S eicuee for moving to ward Central and South Amer ica, say army officers, will be the same he used elsewhereto protect the Oeman minorities.

THE CAPITAL PARADE By JOSEPH ALSOP and ROBERT KINTNEP Released by tha North American Mewipapar AlHsnce. Inc.

Berlia la only espected to send Its fifth columns into action so soon because the Oerman need far raw materials ill be estremeljr press ing, avan after a victory. Washington. June 5. The problems of hemisphere policy which may soon confront the United States are as thornily complex as this country has ever had to solve. If Germany Is victorious in the war. in Europe, nazi-inspired putsches are now feared in several Important na tions of Central and South America. The interests, and In deed the security of the United States are directly threatened. Responsible officials here have no doubts about the first atep If tha putcbee take place, military and na val expendltlona mut be wnt with out delay to quell the putschlsta and restore truly national government, free from nasi Influence. In the na tions affected. But once humpty dumpty Is back on the wan ain. How to keep him there? How even to get him there without seeming to toea Into the discard the whole good neighbor theory, with lis ostenta tious refection of tha former reli ance on tha marines? Tha American policy. mskera hope. perhaps optlmletlrally, that they have found the answers to theae puzzling question. The nations where the nazl-flnanced and directed fifth col umn la most active are Uruguay, the Asentlne, Braall. Chile. Meilco and. to a lesser extent. Colombia. No ser ious trouble Is anticipated In any of them unless Oermany la vlctortoue or la on the point of victory. If the Germans win. efforts to overthrow the existing governments and Install regimes responsive to Berlins com manda are expected In most, and perhsps all of these nations. With thla possibility In mind the admtnlatratlon has already Informal ly exchanged views with other Ameri can governmenta. The declaration of Lima, obtained in lB3a by tha ahrewd diplomacy of Secretary of State Cordcll Hull, forealghtedly pro vided for mutual consultation and Joint action In event of encroach ments on hemispheric independence. It la planned to tnvoka the declar ation, and to present expeditions agalnat putaehlau aa atforta to ful fill the declaration's commitment. Acting at the call ot tha other Amer ican natlona, wa ahall not suffer so much from the old stigma of Imper ialism which always attached to mere sending of marlnea. If tha Oarmana do gat tha British and French fleet, however, our prob lem will not be eaay. Then are cer tain strong atrategio areaa. auch aa tha north.rn part of Venezuela and tha Island of Trinidad, which com mands tha Caribbean, and the natal dlatrlct of Braall and tha Island of Fernando Noronha. which oommand BO per cent of the era routea to lower South America. Theee will very probably become American baaee. from which we ahall attempt to defend tha entire heml !bere. But the ratio of tha existing British fleet to ours ts 5-6: thst of tha French between s-S and a-S. and that of tha Italian a-S. Combined, even allowing for alnkagea. these neeta may constitute a auperloc force. Although It may be possible to avoid trouble with tha Japanese In the Pacine, wa cannot stand off a supe rior force in tha Atlantic. Therefore It may b neceaaary, aa previously stated In thla apace, to resign tha lower part of South America to It fat. r pending on what happene to tha British and French fleets, the putachlete will present an eaay or an extremely difficult strategic prob lem. Whatever tha strategic altuatton. however, they will always present a most serious economic problem. The economies of all the South American natlona are dependent on Europe, not on tha tlnlted State, we offer no market for their raw matertala. Europe doea. And even If the Mast putaehlau are quelled by our arms, the governmenta put In their places can hardly laat long In natlona unable to aall goods. In sacking to prevent Nasi eco nomic domination of South America our policy-makers display their great est optimism. -For their solution la an Inter-Amerlcan cooperative, man aged from Washington, by which the goods of the Americas will be ex changed for the Roods of a Europe whose commerce will be managed from Berlin. Clearly, auch a cooperative will be difficult to establish. Clearly. It will enrage certain special Interests, auch aa tha American wheat and meat producers who will have to yield the European market to tha Argentina. It will not be neceaaary unless Oer many wine. But wa may aa well realise now that If tha worst happena In Europe. It la not going to be pleasant or eaay for tha United flutes. E Burelson's ladies' ready-to-wear will hold a store-wide June clearance event beginning tomorrow morning, according to an announcement made by Mrs. E. T.
