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.

itself was ordered to determine
extent of marketable timber in

The camps will be shifted

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.

ment will build it; if they want
munitions, the army will pro
vide. 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.

guard, will be dispatched to the scene

Clue No. S was when the United

nearer South America than Portland

Other cluea: Military missions sent

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

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

realise now that If tha worst happena
