Tht chairman of th Oregon
delegation to the Republican
convention, U apparently for
anybody ai the presidential
nominee but Wendell Willkle,
and, in the face of telegrams
Jrom the Governor down to plain
voters, is defiant of pleas to
make Wlllkie the second choice,
after a complimentary ballot or
two for Sen. McNary. The chair
man probably has his eye on
Hoover, Vandcnburg or Landon
for second choice. The chairman
makes a great ado about the vote
received by Sen. McNary, as
favorite son in the May primary
more than Gamer and Roose
velt combined. On that occa
sion the senior senator was a fa
vorite son, specially curried for
the race, and without opposi
tion. That vote is the guiding
star of the chairman. The chair
man is not steering by the vote
his presidential choice got when
a New Deal whippersnapper
from Klamath all but whipped
the Senate whip, and the result
was In doubt until the Multno
mah vote had been counted.
That was the year the senator
was diffident, at first, about how
ha stood on the supreme court
pack plan. It Is a mad world
these days, and It is going to be
madder, if any conniving by
Oregon politicians deprives the
GOP. of its best candidate and
prospects.

Editorial Correspondence
PHILADELPHIA, June 21. The same old army game!
With the exception, as we wired, of Mr. Wendell Willkie.
Yes, regardless of the outcome thia man baa what it takes.
He may not Ret the nomination. All the old guard "wisen
heimers" say he hasn't a chance.
But win, lose or draw he ia the big hit of the 1940 conven
tion, and, after the first day, stands above the rest of the field
like Mt. Pitt above Itoxy Anne.
lie has his competition beaten to a frazzle and tied up in
knots.
The man has EVERYTHING, but votes.
Whether or not he will get these, that ia enough of them,
only the future can decide. But that he is going to get more
of them than your correspondent ever helirved fowible is
certain. .
And WHY.
Five words form the only answer,
"He has what it takes."
CALL it oomph, personality, charm, color, magnetism or what
have you, Wendell Willkie HAS it.
And that's all. A man just has it or he just hasn't.
Willkie has, his competitors HAVEN'T.
THE man's aensational personal triumph, however, is likely
to be his greatest handicap. For as a result of it, all of his
opponents have been scared pink, and here on the day of the
first session, are meeting secretly to stop him.
And if they hold together they will stop him. It will be the
field against Willkie, which ia always fatal at this stage of
the game.
BUT we repeat, win, lose or draw, thia light and power
"magnate," who on every political dope sheet had no more
chance to get the nomination than a saw-horse of winning the
Santa Anita handicap, is WAY out in front.
We still can't believe a high-salaried light and power presi
dent, with offices on Wall Street, is really going to head the
ticket of the Uepublican party in this campaign, or any
other, but we freely grant that if he DOES, it will be no more
sensational than what has already taken place.
For the "Gentleman from Indiana" has already smashed
every precedent and prediction in the professional politicians'
form book, he has not only carried the business and profes
sional districts in this sleepy old metropolis, but he has the
rank and file with him as well, wherever he goes the people
just naturally follow him about, and at every opportunity take
off their hats and cheer and shout.
And that sort of thing can't be faked or bought, not the
spontaneous sort of thing that is bo apparent. For the third
time we declare a man either has that quality of leadership
and ability to arouse the rank and file or he hasn't, and Mr.
Willkie HAS, that is all there is to it at this day and date.
OTHERWISE it's the same old army game, the same old
buttons, the same old bunting, the same old slogans, the
same old, and young, delegates. This 0. O. P. convention is
as much like the last one and the one before that as this year's
circus is like last.
More so, in fact. For circuses do try to keep up with the
times and introduce a few new stunts each year. Party conven
tions don't, they stick to the pattern that hasn't been essen
tially changed since the battle of
until we tne people nave enough sense to adopt a national
party primary, and decide for ourselves the candidate we want.
And if that were the procedure this year there would be no
doubt of the result, Bay what
smiling, Doyisn, almost bashful utility magnate has captured
the imagination mid interest and enthusiasm of the people as
no Republican has since Theodore Roosevelt.
THE writer is not basing that belief upon hia own personal
predilections, hut upon what he has seen and heard in a two
weeks' trip from the Pacific Coast to the Atlantic.
Willkie a grass root rolitical
cal taboos and traditions, but as we see it that is the very reason
the man is so popular, o appealing, the rank and file are
tired of political traditions and taboos, and a vote for Willkie
expresses that weariness. It also
is me one man nest titled to solve the particular problems with
which this country is faced, No. 1, national defense, and No. 2,
restoring business confidence so ten or twelve million men can
go back to work. .
AND while on this subject don't forget Mrs. Willkie who sat
in the box at the Academy of Music last night America's
famous "La Scala" with her son Philip (a lad of about 15 who
incidentally looked seared to death) while her husband gave
a brief but excellent speech.
She has a way with her also, charm, grace and poise,
extremely pleasing to look at.
Hut here is the "knockout" as far as your correspondent is
concerned. Amid all that hullabaloo the famous Philadelphia
Symphony orrehestra incidentally
by Robert Wcede, robust Metropolitan baritone, some publicity-seeking
exhibitionist rushed to Willkie and offered up his
"darling daughter," aged about
and shook the little gal a hand cordially, but still smiling he
REFUSED TO KISS! No doubt he lost pappy's vote, but he
made a thousand others.
No, if he ia elected, this man's man isn't going t'o indulge
in any t,i the old time serving politicians' buncombe or guff,
he'a a straight shooter and he is going to shoot STRAIGHT!
. . .
THE G. O. P. started in for the colored vote earlier than
usual. A milk chocolate baritone Bang after the long-winded
political speech technically known as the benediction, and an
other coal black mile some remarks concerning a black belt con
test in the South his hand shook worse than Art Perry's when
he delivered that famous paper before the Eugene Editorial
conference 1
HERE are some of the slogans met with from the bus at the
curb to the convention hall:
"Get in the Van Wagon" (Van is Vandenberg who as a mat
ter of fust has missed the band wagon so far he might as well
take the midnight for Detroit .
"Work and win with Willkie."
"Do it with Dewey."
Also a fan brigade passing out fans it's getting very Turk
ish bathish here naw "Fan for Van!"
An elderly man with long yellow-stained hair with placards
stuck all around his boating, straw, like feathers in an Indian
war bonnet: "Pray tonight for Peace!"
Couldn't find any slogan for Taft, but the little girl reporter
accompanying us thoiii'lit up one:
"Taft for Tenacity!"
Not bad. at least so papa thought ! R W.R.

VACINATION
In most instances, thank for
tune, herpes la merely an an
noyance, whether you call It
"cold sore," "fever blister" or
"herpes s 1 m
plex," an erup
tion of a little
group of ves
icles or blis
ters on sn irri
tated, swollen,
edematous
base. Favorite
site, tho dip or
the face near
the month, but
the outbreak
may occur on
other parts of
the body as
well.
The vesicles, If not broken
or infected, dry up and a brown
ish crust drops off in the course
of ten days or two weeks.
Sometimes an individual sub
ject to recurring herpes has an
outbreak on the cheek close to
the eye, and even the eyelid or.
worse, on the cornea or eyeball
surface. When this occurs hercr
simplex becomes a serious and
painful Illness, for it is likelv
to cause considerable damage
to refraction by leaving Irregu
larities in the shape of the cor
nea or scar such as follows or
dinary corneal ulcer.
Herpes of any type In any
situation seems to have a char
acteristic tendency to recur.
Herpes zoster, zona, or shin
gles, as it is more commonly
known, is a group of vesicles
distributed along the course of
one or more sensory nerves,
perhaps along the forehead,
cheek or chin, though shingles
often occurs on the thigh or
leg or arm or one side of the
trunk.
It becomes more and more
evident that herpes In any form
is a virus disease, akin to chick
enpox, smallpox and, in the be
lief of some physicians, infan
tile paralysis, influenza and en
cephalitis. In a report on the
treatment of recurring herpes
of the cornea accompanied by
fever, Dr. P. L. Davis even in
cludes in the list of virus dis
eases the common cold, what
ever that may mean. To the
best of my knowledge you call
it "the common cold" when
you're stuck for a definite diag
nosis: if it proves to be Infan
tile paralysis, or meningitis, or
scarlet fever, or smallpox, or
Influenza, well, no one will stop
then to think what a bad guess
you made about it not even
the victims you may infect with
your' alleged "common cold" I
THE
CAPITAL
PARADE
By JOSEPH ALSOP and
ROBERT KINTNEP
Rlatd by th North
American Newspaper
Alliance. Inc.
Philadelphia. June 25. Out
wardly the Republican conven
tion is still all milling, sweating
confusion. Inwardly, however
on this second day of the con
vention's labors, you begin to
find a strange, pervasive unrea
ality. In Europe, so today's head
lines told the rare delegates
who troubled to read them.
Winston Churchill was despair
ingly denouncing the French
for handing their fleet over to
Germany. But in Philadelphia
there were a number of eminent
Republicans who appeared to
believe their party could march
to victory wrapped in the tat
tered garments of Neville Cham
berlain, Sir John Simon and M.
Gorges Bonnet.
Th. signs of this development were
actually rather numerous In the
first place, moat of the energy of
the other candidates as now devoted
to trying to stop Wendell Willkie.
whcee mentality and pollciea are
certainly not of the Chamberlain
type. Wlllkte has speclflcslly and
wisely stated to all the horde of
delegate who call on him that he
thinks it the duty or a chief execu
tive to restrain the people from any
warlix policy until th. obvioue
neeoa of national defense unite the
entire country In favor of action
Yet the cohorts of Senator Robert
A. Taft. th atwngeat of Willkle s
opponents, hsve concentrated today
upon what they call "the peace
Issue " They not only have attacked
Willkle as a war monger; probably
without authorisation from Taft.
they hav gone Infinitely further
In fact, they hav preached th kind
of "peac at any price, w. must be
reaJtata, w can make a buslneaa deal
with thta man Hitler" divtrln one
heard from the llpe of the very l"r,l
luh and PrerK-h leader who are

tragedy

FOR HERPES
while you keep about and take
little or no care to protect peo
ple from whatever you may
have.
One man had a herpetic ulcer
of the cornea which had per
sisted six weeks, the herpes
having occurred first on the
lip, then two months later on
the eye. Again and again he
suffered periodic recurrences,
with repeated involvement of
the eye. Tuberculin tests, al
lergy tests, sinus operations and
tonsil operation and various
other things were done, to no
avail. Finally he was vacci
nated with fresh vaccine virus,
every ten days for four succes
sive times. The first, third and
fourth vaccinations were takes.
Fifteen days after the initial
vaccination the herpes on lip
and chin were almost well. For
the first time the patient found
that the eye trouble did not
follow the outbreak of herpes
on the lip and chin. That was
nearly four years ago. The
patient has had no further
herpes.

' Report tonight ar that thia ap
peasement talk, to give It It harsh
but accurate name, la beginning to
I have considerable effect.
On top of the spread of talk of
thia sort cam the behsvlor of the
platform committee. Alf M. Landon
had wisely proposed and the drafting
sub-committee hsd approved a per
fectly lnnocuoua and meaningless
foreign policy plank which left Re
publican foreign policy to be shaped
by th party'a candidate. When th
Landon plank waa presented to the
full platform committee, extreme
isolationists act up an outcry.
C. Wayland Brooks, of Illinois, and
Henry Cabot Lodge, of Massachusetts,
were added to th drafting sub
committee, to which the plsnk waa
returned. After a titanic atrugitle.
Landon managed to prevent the
writing of a plank which would have
committed th Republican forever
to th kind of extreme Isolationism
which began to fade to rapidly In
the country after the Invasion of
Hollsnd. But th foreign policy plank
waa sufficiently gingered up with
Isolationist verbiage to make It remi
niscent of th forgotten, pre-war dsys
when Senator WUUam I. Borah waa
still proclaiming he had better Infor
mation than the state department.
Finally, there waa th speech of
House Leader Joseph W. Martin In
the morning, accusing th president
of heading a "war party." and the
speech of former President Herbert
Hoover In the evening. Otherwise
sdmtrabl. th Hoover speech derived
an Inevitable Chamberlanlsh flavor
from lu minimisation of the present
danger of th situation of th United
States.
If the tendenclea revealed by these
signs come to mslurlty In the can
didate the Republtcane choose and
the campaign they wage, the Issue
win be whether or not appeasement
will work, rhe delegatea and party
leader not too Immersed In the
r-.urly burly of the convention to
think of the tutur sr. dlssxreeaoly
certain that such an Issue will spell
dlssster. Thev ar grimly warning
their fellows that It will be easy for
the Democrats to tell the country.
"The Republicans wsnt appeasement:
look at Europe enslaved and In rulua.
and see how appeasement works. "
Psychologically of course, the ex
plsnstlon of th. new sppesarment
talk Is fslrly simple. Most Repub
lican leaders hsve not seen how the
worsening of the world sltustlon
could do anything but help th
president. By a rather natural proc.
ess, therefore, they hav managed to
convince Utenvselves that the world
J situation a threat to thia country baa
been greatly evssreerared.
! Thia feeling, however, la confined
I to tb leaders. Ivea th leaders
I frankly admit that th. origin of
i Wendell Willkie' boom was In th
fUn( of th Republican rank and
: fll that her waa a man who could

laau of th world situation without

CONTINUED FROM PAOB ONE
spect for the views of others is
supposed to follow, hence elim
ination of intolerance. The train
ing will instill respect tor and
knowledge of the American
ideals. At bottom, this is Mr.
Roosevelt's notion in proposing
compulsory training.
e . .
TTHE young people Mr. Roose-
velt wishes to discipline
have already registered their
objection. National Youth Con
gress secretary, who has been
fed and sheltered at the White
House, calls the training "twad
dle," and American Student
Union secretary regards it as a
step toward war. John L.
Lewis, C.I.O. boss, denounced
it at the meeting of the Repub
lican platform committee: re
ceived a big hand for desig
nating it as the "fantastic sug
gestion from a mind in full in
tellectual retreat."
It will be weeks before the
plan is presented to the public
in detail, and until then criti
cism is shooting in the dark.
...
IVHAT is quite apparent is
" that American youth is to
receive the direct attention of
the federal government in a
manner never before known in
the history of this country.
They will be taught to realize
that they are a part of the gov
ernment: millions drawn for
compulsory service of some de
scription; a million others taught
aviation, mechanics and skill
with the hands. Uncle Sam at
last will become the employer
of a great mass of young peo
ple who have been unable to
find employment since they
graduated several years ago.
c
QREGON is the only state
which does not elect alter
nates to a national convention.
To make up for this, each dele
gate elected under the primary
law is permitted to name his
own alternate.
It would have to happen to
Hoover. A special session of
the Republican convention was
held . to hear the former presi
dent (a slight boom is being
engineered for him), and when
Hoover was delivering his mag
num opus he had to compete
with the Mummers' parade, the
one big civic event of Phila
delphia. Mummers held their
parade on New Year's day, but
repeated, it for the delegates
and visitors.
...
WHEN Judge Ekwall was
selected to place ths name
of Senator Charles L. McNary
in nomination as Oregon's
choice, the former representa
tive of the third congressional
district whipped his "a man
who" together in 30 minutes
and it was not even submitted
to the senator before delivery.
A well-known Oregon member
of the American Legion was
brought to Philly as a member
of the Taft staff, but the Le
gion members were really pull
ing for McNider, an early na
tional commander. The so
called "king makers" of the
Legion are working for Mc
Nider. Dozens of telegrams have
been received by Oregon's dele
gates, urging them to support
Willkie. The messages came
from Portland people who a
few weeks ago climbed upon
the Dewey bandwagon. With
hundreds of thousands of dol
lars spent in behalf of the many
aspirants, McNary's candidacy
has not cost a single dollar.

THE whereabouts of the French
fieet is still the world's No
1 mystery. It will make a story
worth reading when it can final
ly be told.
UfHEN Hitler attacks the Brit-
ish in their own island,
Mussolini will- attack at the
same time in the Mediterranean.
Britain will then need all the
naval strength she can lay hands
on.
That is why the fate of the
French fleet holds the interest
of the world.
rR. MAYNARD C. RUEGER,
Socialist party candidate for
vice-president, says at Portland:
"Free trade with South Amer
ican countries could be a potent
weapon against Hitler. High
U. S. tariffs have prejudiced
South Aemirac against this
country."
True enough, no doubt. But
free trade with predominantly
agricultural South America
would prejudice American far
mers against any administra
tion that tried it.
CTILL, if we have to live to
ourselves in the Westrn
Hemisphere while the rest of
the world ts readjusting itself,
we'll find some way for West
ern Hemisphere countries to
trade with each other.
Trade, unfortunately, can't
move ALL ONE WAY.
THIRTY - THREE - YEAR-OLD
Governor Stassen of Minne
sota, keynoting for the Repub
lican convention, calls the New
Deal a failure.
Those are hard words, but
after seven years we have boost
ed our national debt to a dizzy
ceiling, still have nearly as
many unemployed as In 1933
and have been brought to the
edge of a war we have no busi
ness to be in and have no ade
quate weapons to fight.
That isn't a record of success.
tlERE is something for the
Republicans at Philadelphia
to remember:
Unless they name a candidate
who has something better to
offer than mere criticism of
what has been done and write
a platform In which people can
believe and for whose principles
millions of ordinary citizens will
be willing to make sacrifices,
they might as well quit now
and save hotel bills.
Old-fashioned straddle politics
will get the Republicans no
where this year.
T"HE Republicans can win In
1940 only by convincing the
American people that they can

Editorial Comment
Most Beautiful Spot.
In her radio program a few
days ago Eleanor Roosevelt was
asked to name the most beau
tiful spots she had visited. The
widely traveled first lady of
the land named Crater lake,
Oregon, first among them all.
We in Oregon had long sus
pected something ot the sort,"
and in this time, when summer
travel for citizens of the United
States is pretty well confined
to the United States of America,
we would be justified in offer
ing a money-back guarantee to
new visitors to that national
park of Oregon.
Oregon's Crater lake is
unique. Now "The Switzerland ,
of America" Is found in per- '
haps a dozen widely scattered
places. The New York Times
vacation supplement carries an
advertisement of one of them
in the White mountains of New
Hampshire. Well, it has forest
clad mountains about like our
Coast range, and lakes, but
there Is a "Swizerland of Amer
ica" in the smaller mountains
of California, which goes every
body else one better, as Cali
fornia always does, by having
a native-born yodeler on tap.
Give us. by preference, the
native name for the native
place. Mount Rainier national
park, Mount. Hood, Glacier park,
Yosemite dont' need foreign
cognomens. And when you
have seen all the mountain
peaks, and all the glaciers that
a grand summer vacation in the
west will permit, there is one
spot that will stand in your
memory for sheer, amazing
beauty. It is Crater lake.
