of narrowness in my religious
beliefs, it has amazed me, the
letters I get from members of
various faiths, exhorting me to
turn from my evidently evil
ways, follow the path they have
taken. One woman wrote it was
her daily prayer I turn from my
path of wickedness. Just what
this was she did not say. (Yet
I've spoken from nearly every
pulpit in my home town.)
Not long ago I received sev
eral letters from a communist,
telling me I should use my press
privilege to free the people. The
world, he said, was in chains. (I

Give the Devil His Due!
WE can't agree with those who claim President
Roosevelt's Destroyer deal is "just another clever
political move to get votes."
Or, as one old subscriber put it in this office yes
terday: "I am absolutely agaliut a third term, but thU deal
meani war and war meani four more yean of Roosevelt."
In our judgment it doesn't mean war, at least
not this year. Hitler has enough on his hands without
tackling the United States, and if there is to be any
actual war between this country and Germany during
1940, Der Fuehrer will have to start it.
Nor do we regard it as another clever political
move, in fact quite the reverse.
I ET'S give the devil his due.
" This deal took courage, moral and political
qourage, a type of courage seldom exhibited by the
master politician in the White House.
For while literate and vocal opinion in the United
States overwhelmingly endorses such aid to Britain,
the administration's record in that direction has been
sufficiently strong anyway. Therefore, from the
standpoint of political expediency, Mr. Roosevelt had
everything to lose and nothing to gain by taking this
radical step at this particular time.
. . .
THERE is a tremendous pacifist element in this
country. There are well organized German and
Italian blocs in the larger cities, particularly Chi
cago and New York. This "clever move" will make
no votes for Roosevelt in these vast and populous
areas.
MO, one can find plenty of instances where Presi
" dent Roosevelt HAS put political expediency
jfoove everything else, to the lasting injury of his
country in some instances. In fact, we believe history
will record this as one of his most serious weaknesses.
But not in this particular instance, at least not
as we see it.
In fact, in boldly crossing this Rubicon, about 8
weeks before election, the President and his foreign
policy, in our judgment, appear at their veiy best.

the physical and mental condi

doned, after precipitating the presi

ican Joint defense board.
A straight bargain between this
country and England was decided
on, and prolonged discussions began
between the British ambassador. Lord
Lothian, and the president, who
handled all details of the transac
tion himself. Definite agreement waa
finally reached about a week before
Labor Day. at a white House eve
ning meeting among the president,
Lord Lothian and Secretary Hull.
The agreement was delayed for
two reasons. The president did not
wish to act until the English had
demonstrated their ability to stand
up under the shocks of German air
warfare. He was also eager to avoid
giving the senate Isolationists an ex

have checkmated the Isolationists

Wants a Belter Horse
To the editor:
It gets so tiresome having
folks say, "You wouldn't change
a horse in the middle of the
stream would you?"
Yes, I would, and would feel
as if I was using good horse
sense too. If I was astride a
horse that had taken the bit in
his mouth and was floundering
around not knowing how to get
out of the Jam he was in and
saw a horse coming alongside
that had the strength and cour
age to stem the current, I'd
make a lunge for him. I might
have to hang on to mane or
tail but you're "doggone tootin"
I'd take the chance.
Or, "Oh he ought to be some
one on the inside who knows
what It's all about." but who
knows definitely what it's all
about? Maybe a dark horse on
the outside abreast of world
conditions caught a vision that
those milling around a suppos
edly inexhaustible treasury
could not or would not see. And
that's that.
Yours for the Americas.
Tarcy E. Tracy.
Central Toint, Sept. 4..
By FRANK JENKINS
HERE is probably the most
elenlfirant .inffl niere nf
news since the United States has
been a nation:
President Roosevelt tells con
gress he has already traded SO
"over age" American destroyers
(warships) to the British for
naval and air base sites in the
Western Hemisphere and Brit
ain's promise "never to sink or
surrender her fleet.
THIS la WHY it is so signifl
rentr President Roosevelt, knowing
that congress is WEAK, needing
to make a swift, decisive gesture
to strengthen British morale and
weaken Germany, made certain
by past experience that congress
would bluster but do nothing
more, took matters into his own
hands.
The combination of a bold.
self-willed executive and a weak,
vaccilating, demagogic congress
(parliament, diet, reichstag call
it what you will) is democracy's
greatest menace.
It was such a com t mat ion
that delivered Rome into the
hands of Caesar and France Into
the hands of Napoleon.
nE might as well discard the
" onelent rnmfnrtinff thought
that only congress can put us
into war the thought back of
the strong public demand that
kept congress in session over the
summer. If the President can
dispose of UNITS of the navy as
he pleases, he can dispose of
movements of the entire navy
in such a manner that war will
be inevitable.
A weak, leadcrless congress
makes that possible.
WE should now face this fact
elpnrlv and without evasion:
The United States has placed
itself in the same position as
Italy at the beginning of the
war. Italy started out as a non
belligerent ally of Germany, but
increasing pressure of events
forced her into war.
The United States has become
a non-belligerent ally of Britain.
Pressure of events to come will
be likely to force us into war.
That is perfectly plain.
YET President Roosevelt
' evades and soothes. In his
message telling congress that the
destroyer deal has been made,
he says:
"This (deal) Is no Inconsistent
in any sense with our status of
peace. Still less is it a threat
against any nation.
If it is not a threat against
Germany, why was it made?
O EPRESENTATIVE CURTIS
of Nebraska, puts into words
a thought that must be in many
minds. Following the destroyer
deal, he says:
"I wish the President would
reveal to us all the rest of these
secret war commitments he has
made."
President Roosevelt obviously
holds in his hands the power to
lead us into war. This writer, as
one citizen, wishes he would tell
us frankly what is coming and
why, instead of feeding us sootn
ing syrup.
It would be far better for us
in the long run.
PACIFIC BASES NEEDED

Washington, Sept. 3. OP)
Acquisition of bases in the Gala
pagos and Cocos islands to pro
tect the Panama Canal in the
Pacific was urged by Hfp. lac
(D.-Cal.)
"With the perfect screen
which the new Atlantic and
Caribbean bases will afford."
Izac told newsmen, "all we need
now to make our defense set
up virtually complete are bases
in the Galapagos and Cocos Islands-
"But we should lose no fur
ther time in obtaining them."
Spokesman for a congressional
group which has advocated such
action, Izac indicated that the
destroyer-base exchange with
Britain would bring a renewed
campaign for facilities on the
Pacific islands.
In San Francisco today Secre
tary Knox expressed surprise at
published reports "that we are
actually negotiating for bases in
Galapagos and Cocos islands."
"Of course in studies of hemi
spheric defense attention has
naturally been directed to the
importance of those islands and
other strategic locations in the
vicinity of the Panama Canal."
He explained that no negoti
ations were "actually in progress
as no concrete steps have been
taken towards that t-ud."

By Paul Dunham
POLITICAL observers in the
national capital are firmly of
the opinion that the menace
from spread of Hitlerism, seri
ous as it admittedly is, has not
been the sole motive behind
President Roosevelt's insistence
upon the spending of enormous
sums for national defense. That
he is sincere in his apprehension
of danger to the western world
from domination of European
economy by the totalitarian
powers can not be questioned;
others more expert than Mr.
Roosevelt in such matters have
perceived the disastrous results
in the event of German victory
and subsequent penetration of
South America, thus closing the
last remaining markets to nor
mal trade relations and placing
the exchange of exportable
goods on a barter and trade
basis.
...
BUT IT IS suspected that In back
of Mr. Roosevelt's mind is a realisa
tion of the Increasing opposition In
congress to extension of WPA activi
ties, or even a continuance on a scale
which would take up the slack In em
ployment which had been forecast
before the preparedness program had
been conceived as necessary to na
tional defense. As long ago aa laat
winter government economists pre
dicted a recession In business for the
summer month with a new unem
ployment peak for July. In the or
dinary course of events It-did not
seem that thia could be averted.
In the face of thia altuatlon Mr.
Roosevelt would have received little
encouragement In an endeavor to In
crease the rolls of WPA. and neither
atate nor municipalities were in po
sition to take on an added relief
burden. There waa evident In con
gress a growUig opposition to WPA
and this presented a problem for
which there appeared to be no Im
mediate solution.
...
BECAUSE of this situation, it Is
believed, Mr. Roosevelt conceived the
Idea of seizing upon the Hitler men
ace of securing much larger appro
priations for national defense than
would have been possible for the fi
nancing of WPA, thereby lessening
unemployment and at the aame time
placing bualness and industry on a
more atable footing than could be
achieved from any amount of pump
priming through relief channels.
Whether or not this deduction ts
correct, the result la exactly what
might have been anticipated. Em
ployment has been increased In all
sectlona of the United Statea, par
ticularly In the heavy Industries, and
In certain Hnea of business the ef
fect rras attained almost the pro
portions of a boom. The result could
not be otherwise, what with the ex
penditure of fourteen billion dollars
In progress or promised within the
next few years. And the popularity
of the program has diverted atten
tion from the growing deficit and
prepared the minds of the people for
higher taxes, which would have been
necessary In any event and which
would have aroused deep resentment
without the sugar coating of defense
needs.

IN THE WILL of one of his sister's
provision Is made for the erection
of a monument to Jonathan Bourne.
Jr., whose death occurred In Wash

er Oregon senator discouraged dle
cusston of the plan to erect a monu

he had accomplished nothing worthy
of remembrance. As a matter of fact,
however. Bourne did have auch an
Influence upon the national politi

monument more than do many who
have been thus honored.
The "Oregon system," the Initia

direct primary and the presidential
preference primary are all a part of

the senate he secured passage of the
parcel post law, which haa been, a
boon to the people It not express
companies which hitherto had mon
opolized thia business.
The monument could be located
In Oregon, or at New Bedford. Mas

The Oregon Orchardlsl
The valley is a-booming,
The highways oft a mess
With juicy culls that roll away
From trailer, cart or press.
The packing houses are busy.
Working swiftly night and
day,
Cars are rolling north and
south.
The commission man Is gay.
The orchardlst and rancher
Flitters feverishly around.
Billing, checking, banking
In good old Medford town.
It's all settled at the cannery,
Tinned brightly and labeled,
too;
And boxes filled to bursting,
Are rblling out to you.
But the man who really rates
And takes the acid test,
Is the one who owns and works
and waits
The Oregon orchardlst.
