MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD OREGON. FRIDAY. JUNE 7. 1940. PAGE THREE ROOSEVELT ASKS MUNITION SALES (Continued from nn Ot.) chief executive said it could not. But he added that planes could get out ot date darned fast. For instance. Mr. Roosevelt said, navy bombers which have only recently been delivered have no armor or sell-sealing gas tanks and consequently are out of date. Asked whether confidential equipment, such as bomb sight, would be removed from planes turned back to manufacturers, the president said he didn't think there need be any worry on that score. The actual process of turning In equipment, Mr. Roosevelt explained, will require that it be labeled as surplus or excess. The material will be turned back to manufacturers and the money received credited to new purchases instead of being de posited in the treasury. All sales to the allies of old material, of course, would be made by private firms and not by the government. Commission Lauded Remarking that the new na tional defense commission was getting on extremely well, the president said that he had ap pointed Edward R. Stettinius, Jr., head of a committee to study and make recommenda tions to him on the general problem of government pur chases. The idea, Mr. Roosevelt said, will be to consolidate greater authority for purchases in the treasury's procurement division. Back in 1917, the chief execu tive said, the nation was weak In this respect. ' The navy announcement last night that the "surplus" planes were being turned In to their manufacturer came only a few hours after the White House had disclosed urgent appeals from the allies for all possible speed In the production of military supplies. The president had on his desk for signature the $1,492,542,750 naval appropriation bill pro viding for regular and emer gency equipment from bombs to battlewagons. The senate passed the legislation yesterday. Cool Uniform. London. (U.R Veterans of the World war who sweated through the summer months In their hot uniforms look envious ly on the new summer fashions for the modern army. The mills of Lancashire and Ireland are turning out millions of yards of new cotton fabric from which will be produced a battlr-dress that is not only loose and com fortable but cool. Prison Policy. San Quentin, Cal. (.T) Con victs In the huge state prison here play an unusual "policy" game which pays off in sacks of tobacco gambling on which of California's 58 counties will supply the next "even number ed inmate. Numbers datefronr the prison's founding in 1852, and the latest arrival tJ win prize for a lucky player was No. 65.000. Oh Mill Trtbun not ads.

C Spl. Capital Boy Scouts were up at crack o' dawn of a cold, rainy Memorial" day, decorating each of the many, many graves In Arlington National Cemetery, and helping generally at this year's saddest of all ceremonies at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier. But south of the Mason-Dixon line, we found an almost complete disregard of the May 30 holiday, since the C o n f e d erate memorial cere monies are held in June. BELGIUM'S Invasion and sur render puts one more crack in an already crumbling diplo matic front In Washington. Dip lomatic circles here, 'tis said, were the largest, most colorful and glamorous in the world. They were, indeed, about the only sure meeting ground for our so-called society "cave dwellers" (corresponding to New York's old "400") and officials and congressional members here. Relations with the Nazi are definitely strained now, and with Japan and Italy only a little less so. Pity the hostess who was entertaining represen tatives of Germany and Norway while Norway was being in vaded! As the smaller coun tries have been absorbed one by one, some diplomats have refused to relinquish their mis sions. They live on men without a country! Others have sought and found work In the States, but all of their staffs have been scattered to the ends of the earth. It has been particularly shocking to those of us who met and talked with such at tractive representatives of dem cratic civilization as the Crown Princes and Princesses of Nor way, Sweden and Finland. The popular Procope and his Eng lish bride are still very active We attended a meeting and tea at the legation recently, held for the purpose of organizing U. S. committees to urge the adoption of orphaned Finnish children. AS European legations and m countries fade out, the Im portance of Latin American mis sions Increases. "Good Neigh bor" activities are sprouting all over the place. Everyone Is glad that Oregon's Mrs. Sadie Orr Dunbar, as president of the General Federation of Woman's clubs, is heading a large delega tion of women bound for all points "south." They are to have lessons In government, history, geography and Spanish on chipboard, and are prepared to "sell" Uncle Sam to officials and federated clubs of Central and South America. . . . PLENTY of social activity in your Capital City! But all of It Is hectic, and most of It revolves around day and night benefits, drives, and auctions for European relief as assist ance projects so many and sc varied that we've long since lost count. It started long ago with relief for the German Jew ish refugees, who are still re Pineapple cake and this one ceiving money and aid from Red Cross, various committees, and Jewish organizations here and who are still pouring Into this country for a safe haven at least temporarily It is safe. Reports of most ship landings now indicate the number of citizens, other passengers, and refugees. Then next came re lief for Spanish sufferers, and now a new group is added al most daily. Today's news lists a new one for our anxious eyes: A bene fit for "Russian" children in France. No explanation given as to why, how or when they got there. Our local hospitals and institutions haven t dared to beark In with the usual an nual benefits. They are merelv asking members of boards and their friends to give what they can. The plight of the children everywhere brings Instant re sponse. Many adopt children by paying a yearly sum for maintenance and education Mrs. Roosevelt has taken on one child from almost every coun try. However, with conditions changing hourly. It seems much safer to work through our Red Cross. We can be sure of aid by them getting through under all conditions. Talking Car Will Show Tricks Here One of the most novel and ex pensive "magic illusions" ever manufactured will be on display here next Monday under aus pices of Humphrey Motors, local De Soto dealer at 33 So. River side. The exhibit is the 1940 Magic Talking De Soto car which not only speaks but opens its own doors, windows and trunk lid t oprove that no one Is inside, starts its own engine, flips its windshield wipers, and has a whole routine of other tricks. How all this Is accomplished is a secret, but more than $5,000 has been spent by the De Soto division of Chrysler corpora tion to piepare the car for a na tional tour to dealer cities, and according to Mr. Humphreys, this is more than double the price of the most costly Illusion for sale by dealers in profes sional magician's equipment in Chicago. During Its allotted time here. the Talking De Soto will appear both at the De Soto showroom and at various points throughout town. Everyone is invited to see the car perform, and no charge is made for the act. Menus of the Day (By Mr. Alexander George) SPRING STATES FEATURED Breakfast Fresh Berries and Pineapple Cubes .
