They want annihila tion of the French armies. It la the same German with new leaders, that in November, 1918, was not so intolerant of peace. Then their relentlessness was wrapped In the cry "Kamerad." They whined for peace, and, sad to tell, they got it, with allied arms within their own borders, and facing the devas tation they had wreaked upon other lands. Come peace again, it is best, the statesmen of the victors, leave their Ideals at home. The house voted approval 320 to 42, of a bill to deport Harry Bridges, the Australian alien, whose hellralsing activi ties on the chores of the Pa cific have been costly In cash and sleep.

As usual, this year's Day Camp will be held at the recently created municipal park on Bear Creek, south of Medford. From the very start, this nation-wide Day Camp movement for girls has appealed to us Because it is open to ALL girls who meet simple, sensible physical requirements; Because it opens new avenues for wholesome com panionship with other girls; Because knowledge of useful arts and crafts is im parted by competent instructors; Because CHARACTER as well as physical de velopment will be stressed. THERE has been a decided lack of similar group activities in which ALL girls may take part. Thus, the fact that membership in the Girl Scouts or in any other organization is NOT necessary for participa tion makes this movement all the more valuable and worthy of this community's support. The type of com panionship such a camp will afford is necessary for youngsters of this age makes them better fitted to fill their place in a society where good neighborli ness is a nece&sary requisite of good citizenship. Cer tainly, from observation of previous camps, this an nual gathering of girls does much to instil the right MENTAL ATTITUDE in young minds at their most formative stage. 'THERE is no denying this fact. Group activity of this nature or any other type CANNOT, even for a brief time, take the place of firm, kindly, sympathetic HOME GUIDANCE. Character, with proper moral and social balance MUST be gained first in the HOME. Such movements as this Girls' Day Camp, however, are highly valuable in SUPPLEMENTING this essential home training. The public spirited Medford women who have generously assumed the task of conducting this year's camp well recognize this fact e THERE will be an "open house" session for parents this year, just as there was last year, and fathers and mothers should certainly avail themselves of this chance to see how worth while the Day Camp idea really is. So to these parents we say let YOUR girl take i part in the 1940 Day Camp The benefits from wholesome companionship with other girls and the instruction she will receive from capable carefully planned instruction will be many and lasting. H. G. Fate of French Fleet May Decide Future of England By Oewlit MacKenale . With France compelled to give way to the Teutonic ava lanche which Is grinding down the country, what next? England has sworn to battle to the end. The measure of Brit ish difficulty In performing this great task will, to my mind, de pend In considerable degree on the peace terms Imposed on f ranee. In carrying on the fight against the most powerful war machine ever known, England will depend as heretofore on the ast superiority of her resources and on her tremendous navy to win through. But If she should lose the aid of the French navy o Germany, she would be con fronted with a grave situation. Control of Sea Periled The British navy something more than 2.000.000 tonnage is the biggest thing afloat. The French fleet totals about 81U. i 000 tons and the Italian 718 000 Germany did have some S79.000 tons at the outbreak of the war, but much of that has been des troyed. Now if you will do a bit of simple arithmetic you will see that the addition of the Krench licet to that of Italy, and what is left of the German navy would bring the German-Italian strength perilously close to that it-i..- v.n l.t ,nll leave England's control of ., D, spatches Indicate England hovn ,he Trench fleet will be ,urnrd ovrr to her. Supposing however, that Hitler threatens the French with terrible penal lies if this Is done. That certain 1 , , , , . , ; ly would raise a dire problem ' ' .... r . . .. The same might be said of the Krench air-force. Theoretically t would be f-asible for the ! i'rench to send their planes winging across the channel to their ally. Practically, such an operation might result In fierce Gennsn sanctions. We shall haw to wait and see what the fntcs produce.

On May 22 French Premier Reynaud declared If the allies could hold the German rush Just a month they would be three quarters way to victory. But they weren't able to hold the rush. Britain's problem, as was that of France, will be to avoid be ing smashed before it can get its resources into action. The latest word from London is that the government no longer will depend on economic exhaustion of the enemy but will go all out in getting equipped as fast as possible to meet the blitzkrieg blow for blow. Much of that equipment, of course, is expect ed from American factories. Most observers still hold to the theory that if Hitler doesn't win his blitzkrieg in the near future, his lack of resources will preclude victory. Italy brings to the partnership little in the way of resources excepting more mil- Itory equipment. Britain will try to meet Ger many not only in battle but to maintain that great naval block a1e which has cut the reich off from virtually all sea borne sup plies. Whether Britain will be able to keep up the blockade may depend on the disposition of that vital French fleet. 'PORTLAND OUSTS SECT DISTRIBUTING TRACTS Portland.

Dr. ftllllaai Brady. 15 El Online, Beverly aula, Caaf. THE FIRST DRIN The other day I was writing about dipsomania. Just trifle perhaps, but believe it or not, the mountain labors to bring forth a mouse. To inspect the environ m e n t when I finish ed the dipso mania article one might rea- sonably assume it Is a set ready to shoot a scene in the movies. More darn books. files, reprints, letters and other references and data than should be necessary to compile a small encyclopedia. Also believe it or not I have a fairly good conscience. True, some of my sins haunt me of a night now and then, but as a rule I barely finish my belly breathing before I n off for an other bit of exploration In the great subconscious, always with the hope of bringing back a tro phy. Last night it was not so. Irrepressible Old Conscience was raising well there was Double Trouble. One of the Troubles I can't tell you about yet. But I will tell you about it, I promise, as soon as it resolves itself one way or the other. This Trouble was presented gratuitously by a medical colleague, who had only the kindest intention. The other Trouble that bur dened my conscience and spoiled my sleep was a doubt whether I had dwelt cogently enough upon the value and importance of par ents, guardians, pastors, athletic coaches and teachers asking chil dren under their custody or tutelage to take a solemn pladge against the use of tobacco or alcohol In any form before the child attains the age of 21 years. My chief concern In urg ing this Is the building and pres ervation of HEALTH, and of course. I wish to promote hu man HAPPINESS too. Yes, and another thing, I.O C. taunted me about I had failed to impress upon younger read ers the enormity of the harm done by the first taste, the first experiment or adventure in alco holism, which the young fool usually tries at the solicitation of associates of perverted morals whose dares or taunts the young fool Is too wishy-washy to with stand.

Brady. M. D. K IS THE WORST I If it Is hard for some young persons to keep a pledge or to decline alcoholic Indulgence when "everybody" in the com pany is drinking or when some thing Is being celebrated, the reason why it is difficult is be cause the young person's health has been neglected, and is there fore not so good as It should be. It is as easy for a healthy young person to keep a pledge in such circumstances or to drink a toast in non-alcoholic beverage or to adhere firmly to his or her own Intention to remain a teetotal abstainer as It Is for a cham pion athlete in training or; say, a young person whose religion prohibits indulgence in alcohol. In an earlier talk I set forth the fundamental reason why a drinker drinks, namely, con sciousness of his or her health inferiority and the desire to for get it for a brief spell and feel as healthy, smart, strong and capable as any one else. The same psychology applies, I be lieve, to the conditions involved in taking the first drink. To me It seems perfectly obvious that if the young person enjoyed per fect health the amnesia, mo mentary forgetfulness of reality spurious delight or Joy to be ex perienced under the influence of alcohol would have no entice ment. The young person who en joys perfect health finds being alive thrilling enough.

The president was not convinced the shirt should be made, and liter he asked former Attorney General Pren Murphy to study the Idee.

Communications We WILL right ! To the Editor: Just been reading your edi torials concerning war and peace. I don't think we Ameri cans are advertising ourselves as we should. Europe has got the Idea we won't fight. Italy got that idea and now see the results. Germany thinks that before we could get ready it will all be over. Truth is truth, why not come out in plain words and tell those dictators we will fight when they go too far and let them guess how far that may be? Cod hates a coward. Just think of a man afraid to do right. He that knoweth to do good and does it not. Our country is in good position to make a good bluff. Why ad vertise ourselves that we won't fight? I don't believe such doc trine is true Americanism. I can't help but challenge any man's Americanism who says he won't fight. With Individ uals, so with nations. If we won't fight why all this preparedness fuss? Are we trying to deceive someone? I honestly believe no-fight ad vocates should be investigated. They are helping the enemy of our America. Europe wants us to get Into internal strife for they know that will weaken us. If we stay united they can't overrun us. H. H. McClung. Rogue River, Ore. E 4 SMALL FIRES Three small fires in Jackson county and one in Josephine county yesterday afternoon were put out quickly by the state forest patrol. All were at tributed to careless smokers, first fires of the season traced to cigarettes or matches care lessly tossed away. The Jackson county fires were: (1) Emigrant creek a mile north of Emigrant dam, grass, less than an acre; (2) north of Jacksonville behind the Living ston place on the Old Stage road, grass, brush and some small trees, half an acre; (3) Dry creek two miles east and south of Agate crossing, grass, brush and some grain on the Owens' farm, one acre.
