Editorial Correspondence
New York City, July 4th. At "no one" atayi in the city
for the 4th, it's a perfect place to spend it, no crowds, no
exaitement, no noise.
It's the first eve of the 4th we can recall that we hare not
heard so much as ONE firecracker, it' now nearly noon and
there has been no sound, but that of the motor traffic up and
down the avenue, much less than on the average week-day,
perfect Sabbath atmosphere, a day to aleep and relax.
We should have thought Wendell Willkie would have taken
advantage of this, but, believe
conference, at 2:00 this afternoon, which we shall not attend
although we had a special invitation to do so.
The special invitation came
one of his many publicity men, at hi offices on the 20th floor
at 30 Pine. One of the factotums of the United Press called, to
present the keys of the city and ask if there was anything:
they could do, explaining among other thing there would
be 'a Willkie press conference at 20 Pine at 4:30 that afternoon
(July 3rd).
Having nothing particular to do we decided to take it in,
but declined the invitation of the U.P. to give u an escort.
Finding ourselve in the financial district half an hour
early, strolled down to the aquarium on the battery for a look
at penguins, seals and electrio eel. Have you ever seen a pen
guin swim under water! It goes so fast the eye can barely
follow it. There's a reason for that, of course; the penguin
lives on fish, therefore must be faster than the fish or it would
starve.
The aquarium seals are far livelier than those in Central
Park, they were tearing around their pool in grand style,
each with a popping eye on the customers, lining the circum
ference, presumably in hopes of some edible hand-out.
One of them in an excess of energy and expectation, shot
like a salmon out of the water and landed kerplunk on the
railing surface (2 or 3 feet above), while all the onlookers in
that section shrieked and fled. The seal barked and wagged
ita glistening head, enjoying the sensation it had caused very
much. One more flop and it would have escaped but it chose
rather to dive, like Buster Crabbe at his best, back into the
pool, cutting the water like a knife without a splash.
Entered the Commonwealth Offices at 20 Pine, nearly run
ning over T. R. Jr., as he came barging out, (he may not have
inherited many qualities of his distinguished father, but cer
tainly has his energy) finding the outer offices billed with
men of various ages and sizes, sitting there expectantly,
rather like two-bit players, at a Hollywood casting office.
Much to our surprise a man

afternoon but the afternoon of the 4th, terribly sorry, but it
couldn t be helped.

Tuesday night at the Plaza Hotel in Jersey City, amid the
choicest collection of bums, yeggs and crooks it has ever been
our misfortune to meet. We don't know whether they came
from the lower east mdo of New York, sing oing or were a
portion of Mayor Hague's bodyguard, but we do know a
tougher looking crew we have never seen. (Ye editor kept his

In fact we attended as a Baer booster, because the Liver-

we never CAN entirely resist that sympathetic reaction to the j
underdog. But about half way through the massacre, our heart j
went out to Tony, ugly, stupid and brutal as he may be, '

that Tuesday evening, Baer is crowing his head off today
and demanding his return match with Louis, but the dusky
Bomber could have taken them both on that night, and made
mincemeat of them, two heavyweights with less defense and
real boxing skill could hardly be imagined!
However, it was a slum-bang
blood Marting to flow from Baer's nose and Galento's chin
two seconds after the initial gong, so the crowd got what it
eame for, everyone happv except poor old T.T., who we fear
will have to be content hereafter with the role of beer hall
bouncer.
All the sport writers speak of what a terrible gory sight
Galento presented as he sat, half-conscious, in his corner, when
the gong for the Sth round started. That's true, but aside from
the carmine trickling from one corner of his swollen lira, he
looked little worse than when he entered the ring. For in that
first round when he waddled into the center of the ring with
those short arms crooked at the side of his beer-barrel body,
he looked like some strange Mongolian manniken, unsteady
on his feet, as if operated by clockwork, or a venerable Bos
ton Bull, that had just finished a meal of poison oak. and
eyes swollen tight, was compelled by its master to walk aorovs
a certain space on his hind legs, and go through the motions
of boxing!
Baer, on the other hand, looked the perfect physical speci
men be is, with more handlers fussing with him, than girl as
sistants in a beauty shop. Had the man head or heart he would
never have lost the title, but he has neither. or at least very
little. Our judgment is he really has more of the latter than
the former, altho most of the sports scribes like to call him
yellow. We doubt that, it isn't so much lack of courage as
the man's incorrigible VANITY.
Another thing we mustn't forget: Mr. Wendell Willkie

A CHILD WHO N
Recently we described here a
case, typical of thousands, of a
child aged 41 years who has
brought much
unhapp I n e s s
on his family,
having twice
lost good Jobs
through h 1 s
drinking. The
child had fin
ally taken a
pledge and
kept it for a
year; at the
end of the
year he re
newed his
pledge and kept it faithfully for
the second year. Now the year
is expiring, his wife wants him
to take the pledge for another
year but oddly enough the
child argues that he doesn't
need to take a pledge now, and
he thinks taking the pledge
would be a confession of weak
ness. Many of his friends take
that attitude and openly decry
the Idea of renewing the pledge.
And unhappily his wife hesi
tates to insist lest the child get
the idea that she doesn't trust
him without it and so lose con
fidence in himself and perhaps
begin drinking again.
The pledge apparently had no
such effect the first two years.
Surely there can be no "friend"
whose opinions or wishes mat
ter as much as the opinions and
wishes of the child's wife and
family. But the case illustrates
the difficult psychology of in
ebriety. The raising of the pe
culiar objection to renewing the
pledge now makes one wonder
whether the child has really
kept It as his wife believes.
Another child puts in a word
at this Juncture:
'The other night after an
alcoholic session, my wife
called my attention to your
column in which your cur
rent theme on the alcoholic
problem is weakness, nothing
more, nothing less, in the in
dividual. '
Bologna! Get out where
men are men and you'll find
very good men, who are so
strong minded, that anything
that comes between them and
a drink, they push over, in
fact they are very strong
minded in this way.
How many times have you
been drunk? If at all, you
would know drinking is a re
lief from boredom, a relaxa
tion." (Signed)
This child reveals the simple
truth when he says that "any

CAPITAL
PARADE

ROBERT KINTNEP
Released by the North
American Newspaper
Alliance. Inc.
Washington. July 9. After
these last weeks, you might sup
pose that the service depart
ments of the government would
be satisfied. Billions have been
asked for the navy, additional
billions for the army, fully sub
stantiating the predictions in
this space that the original de
fense requests would be found
to be ridiculously Inadequate.
Both the war and navy depart
ments are now gorged with
money, and will get their need
ed equipment as soon as the
energy and Ingenuity of Amer
ican industry can produce It.
But the army, very wisely. Is al
most aa dlssatufled aa ever. Por
equlpment Is valueless without men
trained to use It. And men will not
be trained unless a national com
pulsory selective service act la passed
without delay.
Something of the dimensions of
the problem which Is now disquieting
the high war department officiate
may be gathered from the recruiting
Ilgures. This spring the army aet
out to recruit only 15.000 men.
Recruits came In at an Incredibly
slow rate, around 1 000 a week, ao
that If sui-h a recruiting proe-ram
were continuously carried on no more
than about 50.000 could possibly be
recruited In a veer. And instead of
soooo a year, tha army men want
SO ooo recmlta a month, and want
them now.

anslety. that trouble may break out
In eouth America this summer. They
recall that training troops takee a
long time, and they antue that since
some of the potential teachers the
etltttng force mav soon be diverted
to other duties, there la no time
to waste.

It matters not to the inebriate
or the dipsomaniac how inno
cent or how sacred the thing
may be. It is a childUh atti
tude. Speaking of childishness, it
may be well to note the differ
ence between the mentality of
a normal child and that of a
moron, or an imbecile, or an
idiot. An idiot Is a person whose
mental development never ad
vances beyond that of a normal
three-year-old child. An imbe
cile is one whose mental de
velopment is arrested at the
level of that of a normal seven-year-old
child. A moron is one
whose mental ability is limited
to that of the normal 12-year-old
child. Unlike the normal
child of 12, the moron is incap
able of further mental develop
ment, education or learning.
Physically, adult morons are
the equals of adults of normal
intelligence. Millions of morons
are good laborers, factory or
machine hands, watchmen, po
licemen, soldiers, carriers, par
ents, citizens. Morons may be
faithful, loyal, gentle, kind and
brave. In ordinary appearance
or manner morons may seem

they have to exercise discretion,

fS the 164th anniversary of
America's declaration of
her independence, American
eyes are fixed on Europe where
in violence and bloodshed (and
treachery) a new politicalorder
is in the making.
On this day this thought is
inescapable:
If we are to retain our in
dependence we must have wise
leadership and loyal and intel
ligent co-operation among lead
ers and people.
IF we permit ourselves to be
drawn into the old-world
system of ever-mounting hat
reds and ever-recurring wars of
empire, we shall never again
be independent America.
CPECTACULAR news comes
from across the water today
(Thursday).
A powerful unit of the French
fleet at and near the French
Mediterranean naval base of
Mers-el-Kebir. ordered by the
Petain (French) government "to
fight its way home, if necessary,
to escape British control," elects
to fight its former British comrades-in-arms.
A naval battle en
sues. What happened is obscure as
these words are written, but
Churchill reports to the house
of commons that a considerable
part of the French naval forces
engaged was destroyed or badly
crippled.
At the same time, French
warships that had taken refuge
in English harbors were taken
over. Minor fighting apparently
took place in the process.
The fate of the French ships
at Alexandria is still unknown.
"HURCHILL, brushing tears
from his cheeks, assails the
Petain (French) government,
which, he tells the commons,
"inflicted what might have been
a mortal injury to Britain with
full knowledge of the conse
quences." He relates that 400 German
pilots (air), imprisoned in
France, were turned over to
Germany in spite of France's
promise that they would be sent
to England." (In this air war.
trained pilots are all-important).
Churchill cited this release of
the German pilots as "an ex
ample of the callous, if not mal
evolent, treatment we have re
ceived not from the French
nation but from the Bordeaux
government" (which handled
the French surrender).
THE crushing of France, we
must never forget, was due
not to any lack of bravery on
the part of the French people,
but to the piddling, boondog
ging. short-sighted demagogery
of the French poiticians.
If America is to remain free
and independent and powerful,
we must demand and receive
unselfish, patriotic and efficient
leadership from our politicians.

Former Medford Attorney
Visits Here After Govern
ment Nome Assignment.
Procuring title to 90.000 Alas
kan reindeer that was the legal
task accomplished recently by
Edward C. Kely, former Med
ford resident who now is an
attorney in the U. S. department
of Justice at Portland. Mr. Kelly,
who was to return to Portland
today after a visit here over the
Fourth of July holidays, was
assigned by the Justice depart
ment as counsel for the interior
department in obtaining title to
the reindeer.
The reindeer were acquired by
the United' States in a program
intended to help the Eskimos
attain economic independence.
The reindeer had ben owned by
56 individual non-natives. It was
Mr. Kelly's mission to procure
title from the 58 owners in the
government's purchase plan.
Reindeer Surveyed
Mr. and Mrs. Kelly and their
youngest child, Jimmy, 4, ar
rived in Nome last February 10.
The reindeer at that time were
being rounded up to determine
by their brands how many be
longed to each of the 56 owners,
Mr. Kelly related yesterday. The
reindeer had been allowed to
roam unattended and because of
this there had been considerable
confusion, he said.
When this phase of the work
was completed, Mr. Kelly start
ed traveling all over Alaska to
contact the 56 owners to procure
sale agreements, he said. The
travelling .was done in a char
tered plane and by use of this
method of transportation much
time was saved. In all Mr.
Kelly figured he travelled about
7,000 miles by plane. His family
meantime resided in Nome.
Mr. Kelly said that when he
and his family left Nome on
June 15 to return to Portland,
title had been obtained by pur
chase to all the reinder except
ing those owned by two of the
56 owners. Title to the reindeer
owned by these two was ob
tained through condemnation
procedings, he related. ,
Sold Like Beef
At the conclusion of each pur
chase, the reindeer were turned
over to the general superintend
ent of the reindeer service at
Nome for handling in accord
ance with a congressional act
of 1937 for the conservation of
reindeer and the establishment
of a reindeer industry among
the Eskimos. Reindeer meat is
sold like beef and the hides also
are marketable.
Congress had appropriated
$700,000 for the Alaskan mis
sion for which Mr. Kelly was
counsel. Of this sum, $275,000
is being returned to the U. S.
treasury, Mr. Kelly said, adding
that the mission had many other
things to do besides acquire title
to the reindeer. Half of the
$70,000 allotted for administra
tive expense also was being
returned, he stated.
Mr, and Mrs. Kelly and their
three children, Bernard, Noreen
and Jimmy, have been here for
a visit at the home of Mr.
Kelly's mother, Mrs. E. E. Kelly,
911 Queen Ann avenue.
In Portland Mr. Kelly is en
gaged in legal work pertaining
to Bonneville transmission lines
and the Willamette valley flood
control project.
