Editorial Correspondence
. Streamliner City of Portland en route to Chicago, June 14th
Just left Sun Valley where tha train made a special stop
to take on the Oregon football representatives, Percy Loeey and
Prof. C. V. Kuzelc of Corvallis, who are en route to Chicago
for more conferences. They weren't very enthusiastic about
the results of the meeting, for they opposed including Idaho
and Montana in their schedules but will now have to do so.
This will mean dropping some California games, and taking
long and expensive football trips to Moscow and Missoula,
with a decline in total revenues.
So while gate receipts are extremely important in intercolle
giate football, they don't ALWAYS control matters.
There were some concessions to Oregon however, a five
year schedule has been perfected, which Oregon wanted, and
Oregon State gets a game with Washington at Portland every
other year, instead of going to Seattle all the time, as has been
done in recent years.
Incidentally Sun Valley is well named today, not a cloud
in the sky, and the sun pouring down all over the place. It
was 102 day before yesterday but only 97 yesterday. This is
gleaned from the Idaho Statesman, the famous Cobb paper.
Among many appreciated services on this train, is the most
recent morning paper, along with your breakfast coffee.
Lots of hay down getting a good "curing", and miles of
green alfalfa, but the bills are already turning brown. Break
fasted with a manufacturer from Cincinnati, Ohio, who is
wholly enthusiastic about Oregon, particularly the Columbia
River drive and Timberline Lodge. Thinks it the greatest coun
try he has ever seen and is bringing out the family next year.
Only disappointment, he never saw a cowboy and doubts if
there are any.
Not many at Timberline and the Benson Hotel, but as we
told him, no scarcity if he would attend the Pendleton Roundup
in September!
Asked him how Senator Taft stood in Ohio, and here is his
answer verbatim: .
"Taft is a good man and a good Senator, but isn t of
presidential timber. I can't speak for the state, but all my
family four of voting age are for Wendell Willkie, and so
are most of my friends. If he were in the White House he would
be in the cab, not asleep in the caboose, and with one hand
on the throttle and the other on the whistle cord."
We have no doubt if the American Manufacturers' Associa
tion were canvassed Willkie would win in a hop, step, jump
and a handspring 1
But while on the subject might state we have heard Willkie
talk wherever we have been including the golf tournament. Yes
terday thumbed a ride from Riverside with a well known citizen
of North Bend, bis parting ahot being: "Now you get 'em to
nominate Willkie down there I"
Which reminds us of a trip we took four years ago on this
same train and couldn't find a vote for Roosevelt outside of the
colored porter. We motored back and found the garages,
service stations and motor camps for no one elsel
j
There has been very little war talk to date on the train.
If we have doped out the train psychology correctly it can be
summed up in one sentence: "It's just too bad but what can
be donet"
Last night just before dinner, the club car radio gave a
translation of Premier Rcynaud's appeal to Roosevelt, and a
war harangue by Congressman Lee to some graduating class
in Washington, D. C. .
The car was crowded but no particular interest was mani
fest. When the French premier asked for a cloud of American
planes, the fat gentleman in a sporting smock grunted in un
disguised disgust and sajd J'where is he going to get eml
It's too early to draw any definite conclusions, but this
attitude taken with the newspaper viewpoint in Portland, isn't
particularly reasstiriug. It indicates an American defeatist
viewpoint is growing to dangerous proportions.
Along this line we were interested to see the stand taken
by the Boise Statesman this moruing, regarding American par
ticipation in the present war. Quoting from an editorinl in the
Brouson liriscom chain published on Long Island, Margaret
Cobb, daughter of the late C'Blvin Cobb, approves as followa:
"In th matter of policy I believe I
"1. That we mould decide to do what Is best (or th
United States and not what Is but for Europe or Aela.
"9. That wa ahould: 'keep America out of European and
Asiatic ware and keep theae wars out of America.'
. That we ehould wholeheartedly aupport army, navy and
air force, always, however, with the idea that we are preparing
for the delenie of the Weatern HemUphere and not for Euro
pean or Asiatic aggreaelon. By Weatern Hemisphere I am visual
Ulng a line from Ureenland around South America and up to
tha Bering Straits, eeparaUng Russia from Alaska. The Hawaiian
Islands ahould be Included In thia area.
"a. That we ahould be constantly on tha alert to guard
against the undermining of our democracy and our defenses by
Nad and Communlet 'fifth column' actlvlUea. tn doing ao,
however, we ahould scrupulously avoid hysterical witch-hunting.
"Thia Is a policy of CONTINENTAL AMERICANISM. It was
, advocated by Washington. Adams. Paine and Jefferson mora
than a century ago. It waa established In the writing of the
Monroe Doctrine. It la the policy under which we upended and
became rich and great. Our World War adventure waa a dis
aatroue violation of It and wa have paid for It In blood, Im
poverishment, debt and Internal atrlfe. Wa cannot repeat that
folly without deatroylng our liberty, our aecurity for another
generation at least. Let us by every meens prepare for war,
but let ua stay at peace."
Mr. Oriscom'a Ideaa etrtke The Statesman aa sound: they are
worth tha serious conslderatlan of every thinking American
Interested In the nations- future safety ant welfare.

THE
CAPITAL
PARADE
By JOSEPH ALSOP and
ROBERT K1NTNEP
Released by the North
American Newspaper
Alliance. Ine.
Washington, June 13. Al
though the fact is not generally
known, Jesse H. Jones, the
cagey administrator of the fed
its I loan agencies, is slated to
become the really Important
person In the much-needed ex
pension of the aircraft business
This will come about because
Jones is a shrewd official, adept
at writing broad powers into
RFC bills and because the pres
ident has apparently decided
not to ask for another $1,000,
000.000 for airplanes.
The speeding up of this coun
try g airplane production to 50.-
jOOO planes a year is a vital part
Iof our defense plans . n 1 the
story ot how it la hoped to be
done has significance, not only
In revealing the importance of
Jones, but as a study in rapid
shifts in policy during an emer
gency period.
The administration haa been in
disagreement on how much should
be spent for planea and how quickly
the money must be appropriated.
Several months ago Assistant Secre
tary of War Louta Johnson urged on
the president the neceaslty for stag
gering approprlatlona. but there as
no agreement at tha war department
and recommendation waa delayed.
Finally, after the war, navy and
treasury departmente were nicely en
meshed In a three-way feud, the
president delegated the problem to
Secretary of the Treasury Henry
Morcenthau. Jr. For a government
official with a reputation aa an econ
omise Morgenthau made aurprls
Irgly liberal spending sueYettone.
And aa the Oermen military super
iority over the democracies became
more abvlous. congress waa asked to
appropriate between S500.000.000 and
S7SO0OO.0O0 for planea.
But tha treasury aoon found that
sull more money waa needed. Short
ly before aircraft production waa
transferred to the new council of
national defense two weeka ago, Mor
genlhau's eiperte. Dr. Oeorge J. Mead
and Captain Sydney Kraus, agreed
that another SI 000 000.000 waa nec
essary for a realty quirk expansion.
Their etew was strongly supported In
the war department and tt was at

A LITTLE LESSON
A correspondent offers this
little lesson in diagnosis for the
benefit of whom it may concern:
Early in Au
gust I got a
crimp In my
back while
leaning over
the engine ot
my a u t o m o
bile. Consulted
family doctor
who said it
was prostate
trouble, but he
made no ex
a m 1 n ation. I
took the medi
cine he prescribed, and after a
while felt better. Then in May
I . began having trouble again,
and had to get up four or five
times every night. Family doc
tor said it was the same old
trouble of course, and that ex
amination was not necessary
he knew what it was. Then 1
wrote you and asked if you
could give me the name of a
good doctor for prostate trouble.
You recommended Dr. . . .
(Interpolation by Brady: It is
human nature not to explain all
the details when writing to me
for such information. But even
if the correspondent did do so
at the time, I would give him
the name and address of the
nearest competent physician or
.specialist I know, of course.
That's one of the important
functions of this column).
I still had faith in the family
doctor, but continued to get
worse. I had to call the doctor
you recommended at 10 o'clock
at night the first time. As soon
as he examined me he said I
had an abscess which had to be
diained at once . . . called hos
pital ambulance, operated at
11:30 p. m. I was out In five
days, and have been in fine
health ever since that was
nearly three years ago. I am 61
years old and feel 30. I don't
know how to describe the trou
ble so you will understand, but
I wish you would write Dr. . . .
and get any professional infor
mation you may care to have.
Anyway I feel I have to thank
you and Dr. . . . for saving my
life. (Signed) ...
It is immaterial precisely
what the trouble was. The les
son is plain enough for him
who reads. It recalls an early
lesson in diagnosis I learned as
an intern.
A laborer with delirium tre
mens received the digitalis
treatment enormous doses of
tincture of digitalis, in fact
enough to produce digitalis
poisoning and made a good re
covery. As senior house physic
Ing to a recent White House an
nouncement, thia will not be done.
Apparently the reason Is that the
president and William S. Knudsen.
hla new national defense aide, are
counting on Jonea to solve a prob
lem which obviously atlll exists.
In Its simplest terms tha problem
la on ot factory space. Without
hug plant expansion. 50.000 plsnea
a year cannot be achieved. Aircraft
manufacturers report that preaent
government ordera ar not adequate
to Justify such an expansion, and
they want more approprlatlona aa
quickly aa possible. The president Is
counting on Jonea to obtain thia
plant expansion In preparation for
ordera that now apparently will not
oome until th next session of con
gress. Jonea got Into th picture because
he waa ahrewd enough to writ an
R.F.C. bill with broad powers. Soma
time ago he prepared a routine
measur to return S300.000.000 from
the R F.C. to the treasury, and when
the president asked him to supervise
the purchase of auch strategic ma
tertala aa rubber he tacked tha
amendment on this bill.
Showing a farsightedness that al
ways msrks his operations, he wrote
hla new power broad enough to per
mit the RFC. either to build air
craft factorlee and lease them to pri
vate manufacturers or to lend the
companlee money for their own ex
pansion. The bill la now before con
are ss. and after conference between
the president. Knudsen and Jonea.
It haa been decided that the admin

schemes whereby the RFC. msy ad

IN DIAGNOSIS
ian on the ward at the time I
was proud of the result of the
treatment. Nearly a year later,
when my classmate, the junior
intern and I had changed places
on the service, the same patient
returned, again delirious, breath
heavy with alcohol. My class
mate, now senior, decided to use
the digitalis treatment again. On
the suggestion thst we had bet
ter examine the patient care
fully first, the classmate insist
ed he knew what was the mat
ter, all right. So the patient re
ceived the first few enormous
doses of digitalis, and at autop
sy it was revealed that the man
had been suffering from pneu
monia and empyema.
Sometimes examination is as
tiresome to the doctor as it is
to the unenlightened patient,
but still it is always worth
while.

further their already inadequate
supply of war munitions.
"THE Germans are now seek-

the French army manning the
Maginot line, whose great guns,
apparently, can't be turned to
the rear. They seek, at the
same time, to surround and de
stroy the army that has been

Britain is helping gallantly,
even sending her home defense
troops to France in the present
hour of grave peril. But with
the channel ports gone, help is
given under severe handicap.
JiajADRID announces that Span-
Ish troops have occupied
the international lone of Tan
gier, across the narrow strait
ot Gibraltar. This may herald
the entrance of Spain. Franco
being the puppet of Hitler and
Mussolini.
The purpose of the Spanish
move at Tangier would be to
close the straits of Gibraltar,
thus cutting the line of supply
for the Allied army in the Near
East. Italy is poised at the
summit of the Alps and along
the Riviera.
It looks like a line of steel
closing around France.
THE problem in France now
is exactly the same as the
problem in Belgium when Leo
pold's surrender opened the
flank of the Allied (chiefly Brit
ish) army there to withdraw
the French armies without de
struction. In the next few

superhuman Job.

the REMOTE CAUSES of
France's present desperate
plight.
In the years when Germany
was working day and night,

the greatest war machine In
history, France wa? living the

that people may work less and
have more. I
When cold reality met rosy
theory on the grim field ot bat-'

would have provided.
