PXflT! FOURTEEN1 BEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. THURSDAY, JUNE 6. 1940. LEGION ADVISES PUBLIC CALM IN Investigation of Alleged Sub version Should Be Left to Authorities, Warning "Don't Be Alamed! Do not take the law into your own handa! Don't talk listen!" Thia advice to American Le gionnaire wai contained in a circular letter received today by H. J. Melring, commander of the Medford poat, from William D. Browne, state chairman of the Legion's radical activities com mittee. The letter pertained to the "fifth column" wave of fear and rumors that has engulfed the country. Alarmists in our midst would have us, on hearing of some re ported group or individual act ing subversively to the best in terest of our people, take the law Into our own hands, stated Mr, Browne's letter, which was at tested to by State Commander Nlel R. Allen of Grants Pass "This we must not do, this we cannot do, for we, as Legion naires, are pledged to maintain law and order. Such direct action would be Just the thing the 'fifth column' boys would have us take, for it would bring about a condition leading to civil strife if not to dangerous riot and bloodshed." Pointing out that the Amerl can Legion is not a law enforce ment body, Mr, Browne con tinued: "We should at all times be on the alert for signs that how the workings of subversive groups. We should have an ear to the ground but our work must go no further than reporting our Information to our department headquarters. ' Such information, the letter indicated, would be investigated and if a law violation was indi cated the matter would be turn ed over to the proper law en forcement agency.

What remains unsolved, is how much authority, if any, the president will confer on his war board. New dealers close to the White House are insisting that no authority be delegated; that the president maintain control or that the board report to a cabinet member or one of the president'i anonymous secre taries. REGARDLESS of the miffed feel, tags of tha naw dealere, tba prea Mens u awsra that It tba defenes material la to ba produoed without unneoenirr delay, industry muat have a pretty tree band. Already tba admlnlatretlon la arranging to aa alat and cooperate. It will finance a program to edu cate one million young men aa akllled mechanlca. for lack of eultable mech anic is one of the bandlcapa with which plant production ta o fronted. It now appears that akllled mechanlca are the first line of de fense: they are needed la manufac ture of everything from air ptanee and aircraft englnee to tank and bomb etbta. Until the mechanlca are available the defeue program will bog down. It baa been like pulling teeth to obtain loana from RFC, but now the unlimited reaouroea of that agency are available to eapand or build new plant for eoncerna receiving govern ment ordera. RPO la ready to solve the question of where to obtain capi tal: no need to bother with BEC to receive permission to float a atock laaue. Thus one new deal agency la pushed aside and RPO (created, by tha way by Herbert Hoover), becomes a eonalderate banker. e FR several veers prominent buat neaa men have come to Wash ington and made euggeetlona to have the administration ease-up on tne prodding of the new dealers In order that buaineaa might aid in overcom ing the depression. Their million re ceived a cold ahoulder. Today these earns men. and others of their kind, are being Invited to enter government departments aa dollar-a-year men.

If there la anything In tha contentlona made throughout the years that Induatry. If not handcuffed by new deal regu lations, can cure moat of the unem ployment and restore reasonable prosperity, now la tha time for a demonstration. UNDEtlNIATH the nervousness ov er war's alarms, there Is spread ing a different spirit in the national capital. Bualneaamen, aummoned to be consulted on the manufacture of gadgets or whatnot, are atepplng more briskly; know that door will not be alammed In their faces nor will they be kept cooling their heels for hours on end. There Is s growing feeling that at long last there ta a chanre for tha depression to be licked and that It will not be criminal to be an employer. While It may hsva been polltlca (republlcana eay It wal that caused Mr. Roosevelt to lambaat big business in general end call Important In dtistrlallsta "economic rovallata" Tones-, etc, he haa burled the hatchet and la banking on them when a nation may be at stake. T MARINE TO TAKE CCC BOYS ABLE TO NEGOTIATE TESTS Expansion of the U. S. Marl- 1 time commission personnel will transfer at least 500 civilian conservation corps enrollees to the merchant marine by July 1, according to word received by district CCC headquarters here today, which announced that ' 13 men will ba taken from thia ; section. Under the new program. 128 CCC enrollees will be allowed to participate in tests through-, out the ninth corps area. If, for any reason, other districts i In the area are unable to fill their quota, additional men may be received from the local dis trict, it was stated. Officers said that the prelim-! inary tests were comparable to stiff army and navy entrance I examinations at the enlisted I men of the merchant marine were regarded as the future of ficers of the U. S. Coast Guard. At least two-fifths of the ac ceptable applicants must have radio training or experience In 1 radio operation. 1 Requirements specify that the applicant must be a literate American citizen, have served 1 one year in the CCC ranks, 1 must volunteer for enlistment j In the merchant marine and ! must agree to serve at least one year on a ship as an enlisted man If such employment la available.
