The hate bestowed upon the ex-Kaiser, (1914-1918), was some thing in its day, but compared with tha current abominating of Mussolini, it was like love In spring. The average citizen called the ex-Kaiser many things, but he never called him a Jackal, and then felt like sending the Jackal an apology. .

You other fellows, we fear, are going to let your business go to pot while you listen to the war broadcasts. And that goes for the nation's business as well.

Awoke this morning with bright sun streaming through the open window to find the watch registered 4 :50 a. m. ! Thought the trouble was the watch, but hotel central confirmed the time then realized It's only about week from the longest day in the year. Why don't' more people go on daylight saving for themselves even though thelrbenighted community doesn't? Couldn't sleep so arose and-sauntered up to Washington street for breakfast, the hotel dining room not opening until 6:30. Found a cafeteria open and breakfasted with a taxi driver, who said business is terrible, and was further depressed by the fact he haa hay fever. Just to make conversation asked him what weed he thought responsible for bis ailment, and he replied promptly it wasn't a weed but vitamin A and B deficiency. Sometimes wonder if we aren't going a bit crazy over vitamins. There was an active case of hay fever and the man had been taking vitamins A and B for three weeks! What ia ao rare as a day in June, between S and 7 o'clock in the morning 1 f ' ' Perhaps his physical condition had something to do with it, but the taxi man- is quite certain that if Roosevelt stays in the White House another year, thia country will go straight to hell. We have talked with quite a number of taxi drivers in our time, and thia ia the first one who wasn't atrong for Mr. and Mrs. P. D. R. Our friend ' complaint chiefly concerned getting in the European war, he aees nothing himself if Franklin has his way, tha chief executive reminded us in the upper bracket division. With daylight saving, clerks at 5, play 9 holes of golf, eat morning paper and still be on at 9:301 Conventions in Portland this around a beer barrel. Oregon this week, and appear to be enjoying themselves. There was a time when funeral directors but no longer, a more jovial, better nourished, and prosperous looking bunch-of men and women we have seldom seen. Why wouldn't it be a good scheme, within reason, to extend this spirit of joy and well-being into their, profession! No one likes long-faced tremolo-voiced birds about when one feels badly. e e e ' Why is it Medford always thiugs here in Portland! Medford has one go'.f player in the state amateur champ flight tourney, just completing the qual ifying round, and here the Journal puts him in the first tcu, but calls him George ERICKSON! Had to call up the Sporting Editor and tell him it was George Harrington, a great kid and if given anything like a fair break, he has at least an outside chance to get somewhere. Later: Have just returned from following George around 36 boles, but he certainly didn't get a fair break or any break at all. The Calamity Jane putter that clicked so perfectly to give him the John Perl trophy the other day, was on a sit-down strike or something. At that George played in the TO's, but met two opponents who played better than he did, he was beaten in the morning by Haskell of Olympia, Wash., 3 and 2, and in the afternoon by Eddie Beck, the same score. There was nothing to mourn about in either case. George played a good game and was shooting for pars all the time, but when it came to the pinch the pill simply refused to sink. e . Brother Ivan had better luck, he had a poor qualifying round, ao was shunted off into the sixth flight. Won bis first match and benefited by a. default afternoon off to follow George matches. Mrs. George came down the baby with her mother, and until she was overcome by hay ever it is that always afflicts her It a uot surprising on this Kiverside course where the state ama teur tournament is being held, there is everything in a horti cultural line on the fairways but dandelions and what have you. bich only sustains what this department has contended for many years, Medford has one of the finest golf club fairways on the Pacific Coast. e e .-. This man Bud Haskell, who defeated George in the first round of the championship flight, will bear watching. He shot a sweet two under par, while George was two over, and has in the nth degree the proper golfing tcmperameut, takes infinite pains with every shot and never gets excited. reminds us very much of Johnny Goodman when, he put Bobby Jones out of the running at Pebble Beach, and as a result got on the front pages all over the country. Johnny is a roly poly today, but then, like Haskell, he was slight and wiry and had a very in triguing poker face. . There' was some great golf played for a state amateur, a chp by the name of Jennings, a public links champ, shot a 69 in the morning and 68 in the afternoon, really brilliant golf, but say what you will, in golf like that Lady Luck plays a big part, Jennings' ball was dropping into the cup from all angles all day, he had two eagles and perhaps three. If be meets Haskell that will be something worth seeing. Little Dick llauen of Marshfield, well known to all Medford players, won bis first two matches hands down. He is less nervous' than he was last year when he made a strong stab for the Southern Oregon championship. H. W. R. Weygand Forces Periled by German Turning Movements By DaWttt MscKentl Generalissimo Weygand's al lied forces defending Parts are In a tight spot because of the Insistent German turning move ments which are calculated to encircle and destroy the main French army. Just how tight that spot is de pends on how close the nail of fensive is to the slackening down moment which must come to all such great drives. One would expect the Invad ing war machine to show signs of slowing up already, but it must be admitted that thus tar those signs have been lacking The assault was continued with unabated fury today, the French announcing that the Germans; wrr using 1. 800.000 troops, which I should say would be about twice th defending force.

The German turning opera tiona have continued with some success on both allied flanks, and these represent the worst danger spots in the long battle line. On the French right wing the Germans have- compelled a withdrawal in the Mraux-Cha teau Thierry sector and have crossed the river Marne. Here again is a real threat to the al lird line. Should the Germans be able to sever th allied front here it might presage a disastrous roll ing back which, taken in con Junction with the turning move ment on the west flsnk. would mean encirclement of the allied forces.

Address Or. etiuiam Brady, 163 El camlno, Beverly Hula, Calif. - . SHE SAW IT IN A correspondent writes that she learned about the value of wheat germ. The correspondent sayg she decided to try wheat germ. On the dog. It appears. Her husband had showed sugar for years. He also had pep tic ulcer and chronic con stipation. Chronic c o n- stipation is not a disease, but a bad habit. However, vitamin B complex. In wheat germ or in any other form, is a great aid in correct ing the habit. - The lady's husband, she grate fully report:!. Is now sugar free, his stomach gives him very lit tle trouble, he has gained five pounds, and the habit is almost cured. All he needs now, I wot, to complete the cure of the habit, Is a little enlightenment on the physiology of the alimentary tract. At the time the lady wrote, her husband had been taking about three ounces of wheat germ daily for a period of ten weeks. She doesn't say just how he managed to take that much every day and not get fed up with it. But there are several ways to take it, for variety or change. One way is to eat it as a cereal, or mix it with any cer eal you like. Another way is to stir perhaps an ounce of it (about four heaping tea spoon fuls) in a glass of tomato juice, orange Juice or other fruit Juice or vegetable juice, and drink it or eat it as a gruel. Another way is to mix it with any fresh fruit In season. Another way is to incorporate it In any recipe calling for flour, in place of one-third or one-half of the flour. Cooking or long heating of course destroys some of the vitamins In the B complex but only n minor portion. In what ever form you take wheat germ, be sure .to get fresh wheat germ it deteriorates in vita min content on long standing, so a fresh supply should be ob tained within two or three weeks after milling.. Each ounce of fresh wheat the German high command to surrender Paris. Apart from other considerations, the nazi. have been considerably concern ed over world reaction to a de structive siege of Paris. . If the present temper of the French doesn't change, this cos mopolitan city which belongs equally to all cultured nations will not be surrendered until the defenders are crushed, . Danger of the city being de stroyed may have been lessened today by the action of the mili tary governor in declaring it is an "open city" and that the city proper will not be defended. Should Paris be razed, to my mind the effect of that tragedy will reach far beyond France. It will sweep around the world, and I can believe that it will have a potent Influence on the minds of many. Smek Writes Symbol The acrid smoke from explod ing bombs and fires, which al ready is rising from the quaint old-world streets, is writing across the sky a symbol of some thing bigger than Paris or even France. Each of us must inter pret that for himself as his con science directs. For som it may mean Justice, freedom and brotherhood of man. For others it may represent the code that might is right. That is something I can't fig ure out excepting for myself, but I can say that your decision and my decision will represent for us the spirit of this war and the sort of social structure we want to see grow out of It. As the majority of the people the world over Interpret this symbol which arises from the siege of Parts, so will go social and political developments in many lands. By Faank Jenkins.

Beverly Hills, Calif. that is, of utter ruin of the city by the attackers. Defending Paris, these "au thorized sources" say, is Just a foul scheme on the part of the French to convict the Germans of "Kulturschande" (cultural disgrace). IF bandits, attacking your house and your family, put out a story like that, would it incline you to give up the de fense of your home or would it make you mad enough to fight to the last drop of your blood?

The war will end for France only when the French army is destroyed or so demoralized that it loses its will to fight.

Inc. Washington, June 13. As if the news from abroad were not sufficiently appalling, there are now signs that serious trouble may break cut on this side of the Atlantic much sooner than haa been thought. War depart ment authorities were talking of hemisphere defense in terms of months not so very long ago. They now compute the danger in terms of weeks, or simply say that trouble may begin to morrow. In this country. It haa begun already. Within tba pan fortnight tbera have been three caaes of what la regarded aa undoubted eabotage In American aviation planta. In one the po'ea bringing electric power Unaa Into an important factory were found eawed moat of the way through. Id another a factory'a cen tral power awltch had been malic loutly damaged. And In the third an effort had been made to block a factory's water main. None was suc cessful. Nona was really aerloua. So far aa la known, none haa aa yet been fully Investigated. For these reasons, no great stir has been made. Yet these Incidents should serve to put the country on notice, aa should the signs aforementioned In the natlona to the southward. .These are less tangible. Among bona fide member, of German colonies in sev eral countries, there haa been a tre mendous amount of traveling and other unexplained and unusual ac tivity. At several polnta. notably Uruguay and Panama, there are concentra tion, of non-resident Germans, who are ostensibly tourists, refugees, sail ors or fishermen, or have similar excuses for their presence in a for eign country. There have been one or two unpleasant, although possibly quite innocent Incidents, aa when a Chilean ahlp recently rammed the Panama canal breakwater at Colon. There la a conalderable division of opinion, within the government, aa to the weight to be given these signs. In the state department, for example, a faction of officiate whose Judgment haa been excellent In the past la Inclined to rear any present slarm aa unjustified. Thia faction admits the signs, but arguea that they cannot mean much', since Ber lin would serve no useful purpose by provoking Immediate trouble In thia hemisphere. A perhapa larger group of equally competent Judge, feela the moat acute alarm, however. Pointing, for example, to the "sailors." "refugees" and the rest, they remark grimly. "They all smell tha same and they all come from the aame nest." These men actually take the position that a definite overt act. auch aa an at tempt to sabotage tne Panama canal, tha oil reflnertea at Aruba or some other vulnerable point In the hemis phere, la quit poMible within the Immediate future. They are the ones who say that the trouble may begin tomorrow. Because their opinion Is at leas, tenable, steps have already been taken to mlnlmljo the danger as far aa possible. Aruba Island has been cleared of suspicious characters within the laat few days. Th. Dutch have dealt firmly with the altuatlon In Curacao, and the Knglnh author ltlea wtth that In British Guiana. Finally, within the past 10 days, the war department haa conducted a draatlc clean-up of tha Panama canal son, and although It la Impossible to do anything about aliens in Pan ama City Itself, the threat to the canal haa been reduced aa far as poeuble at present.

Kelly CONTINUED FROM PAOI OKI planes have been made avail able to the allies, but the ships disposed of were the best in the lot. On hand the army had six months ago 830,000 Springfield rifles and 1,850,000 Lee-Enfield rifles. It ia expected that at least a million of the latter wea pons will go to the allie and most of the old 75 m.m. guns which have been in storage sine the first world war. There has been much talk of the new United States shoulder rifle, the Garand, a semi-automatic. At the present rate of production the army will have 149,628 by June, 1942. Of these the Winchester Arms company has a contract to provide 65, 000 in the next two years, at a cost of $120 a rifle the govern ment arsenals make them for $80 each. Production has not started by the Winchester com pany as months have been re quired to make the tools with whichto make the rifles. The arsenal at Springfield is making 100 rifles a day of the Garand model. .... THE fib la told that th United States la disposing only of Its "surplua" weapona and planes. Tb tlgurea. taken from congressional hearings, ahow that no "aurplua" ex tsta: there are not enough rlflea or planea to meet tha necessities of the present personnel. Speaking of material, th United State la jiow giving the alltea Ita shirt. This la Just a matter of keeping the record straight. The alllee do not nerd credit: they have a few billion dollars wtth which to make purchases ard this money will run them a year or ao. if the war laeta that long. ENUSTMENTS In the army ar not up to expectation, at least in the east. Recruiting stations In New York. New Jersey. Delaware, hava been unable to till their quota. Then Is no rush of young men on relief to join the colors and the records fall to disclose any of the authors, pro fessors snd lawyers who are demand ing the United States declare war, hare Jolnod up. The volunteer spirit Is at low ebb. Groups which were busy recruit tng American boys for the Abraham Lin coln Brigade In Spain "to fight for democracy" are accusing Britain and France of etartlng an "Imperialist war." WHILE President Roosevelt was sailing on the Potomac last Sun day drafting the speech to be broad cast from the University of Virginia, and Secretary Steve Early was phon ing press correspondents to expect something Important, one of Roose vi'lt'i appointees waa throwing a monkey-wrench In the defense pro gram. Edwin S. Smith, member of the National Labor Relations Board, told labor to make no sacrifices to further the national defense program. On the program with Smith waa Harold Prichett, alien labor leader of the Pacific northwest, who related the "reign of terror" at Aberdeen, Wash., during which the wife of a CIO organizer waa killed. This case, by the way, has been under Investi gation by government agents, but they have yet made no report. MEANWHILE the National Defense Commission has established It self In tha white marble palace of the Federal Reserve board, getting ready to swing Into action to produce all the war materials the United States rrqulres.
