A Guess on Hess
AGAIN Mr. Winston Churchill refuses to comment
Hess, declaring to Commons he may never comment
on it.
Why? Does the British

Or is the truth about the
from an allied standpoint?
OUR guess, and it can only be a guess, is there

It IS smart diplomacy to
what dynamite there may be in the incident can be
exploded with maximum effect, that is before Hitler
can build up an alibi for protection.
It is also likely that
crazier at least than the rest
that he has not betrayed or
that the purpose of his flight was to stop the war
and secure a negotiated peace before it is too late.
Bv "too late." we mean,
of grandeur lead him to
Napoleon and Alexander the Great, and the Ked
Giant crouching in the Kremlin springs forth to take
control of all Europe.
X17E repeat this is only a guess.
But it is a guess based upon the probabilities as
we see them, that Hess is a fanatical devotee of the
Nazi philosophy; that his fear and hatred of Russian
communism is genuine ; always inclined to see visions,
his latest one is a vision of his Messiah's cruci
fixion on the cross of insatiable greed and ambi
tion, so :
Here was the golden opportunity, as he remarked
when he landed in Scotland, to ''save humanity" . . .
humanity meaning to Nazi No. 3 German control of
western Europe and that only ; the defeat of Russian
communism, and the end of the war before the full
force of American aid could
CINALLY, our hunch is the clinching argument
used on Churchill by Hess was that only by agree
ing to peace now, can the British Empire be saved
from destruction, that not only has the Vichy gov
ernment gone over to Hitler but Stalin has given a
pledge to assist him, and
has been won.
Beware of Russia!
CPEAKING of Russia there is an interesting article
m the June "Harper s ' entitled the "Silent Russian
Revolution."
We advise those who still retain their illusions
about this alleged "democracy of the future" to
read it.
For Russia is now, and has been since the Finland
adventure, on a strict war economy.
Everything is subordinated to making Russia ef
fective as a military power.
e e a a
THE new democracy of Trotsky's "red army" has
been entirely abandoned. There is no longer an
army of workers, but an amy of soldiers. Officers
no longer fraternize with their men; they order them
about, and hrve the right, granted by Stalin, to shoot
as many of them as they wish, without trial or hearing.
Militarv orders and medals have been revived.
Industry has been geared
facture of guns, planes,
roads are being constructed and improved, in line
with the demands of military operation. Universal
and free education has been abandoned ; radical so
cial legislation modified: Russia is becoming more
and more a highly disciplined and regimented mili
tary despotism.
IN short, regardless of the menace of communism
as a revolutionary and destructive political concep
tion; when this World War No. II does end Russia
will be a force, and we mean FORCE, to be reck
oned with.
In foreseeing the true menace of "the bear that
walks like a man," perhaps Comrade Hess isn't so
crazv after all!

TATTOOING
Tattooing may be accidental,
remedial or criminal.
The hands of minors may be
a c c 1 d entally
tattooed by
p a r 1 1 cles of
carbon lodging
under the skin
thru punctures
or sera tches.
U n intentional
tattooing has
resulted from
the use of a
mercury con-
t a i n t n g
"bleach ing
cream" and
from the use of
chloride of Iron solution applied
for relief of Ivy poisoning, also
from the external application of
copperas (iron sulfate, green
vitriol) solution for relief of
skin inflammation. Gun pow
der grains lodged In the skin
may be considered accidental
tattooing.
Tattooing with an escharotic
is sometimes the best method of
treating moles, port wine stains
or xanthoma.
Criminal tattooing is the tat
tooing of designs on the skin to
satisfy a primitive taste for per
sonal decoration. It is not a
statutory crime to so mutilate
the human body, but it should
be punishable - both the indi
vidual whose body is so muti
lated and the individual who per
forms the mutilation should be
punished.
Dangers of this operation by
persons without surgical train
ing are many. Many cases of
syphilis have been transmitted
by tattooing. Among the infec
tions that may occur are lymph
angitis, erysipelas, lockjaw, lep
rosy, tuberculosis, chancroid and
syphilis.
Occasionally the skin becomes
accidentally tattooed with whit
ish deposits of lead from the ap
plication of washes, lotions or
solutions containing "sugar of
lead" and the use of an eyewash
containing lead subacetate has
caused similar deposits of lead
in the cornea, the window of the
eye.
The sooner powder grains or
other particles lodged in the skin
through an accident are re
moved, the better the ultimate
cosmetic result will be. Such
grains or particles of pigment
must be patiently picked out
with a needle or knifepoint, un
der local anesthesia, or if there
are too many of them, under
general anesthesia.
The removal of ..Id powder
stains may be effected by elec
trolysis with sufficient current

tons of munitions every day
without the slightest accident.
From Columbia river the
search has extended to Paget
sound and a site meeting mo?t
of the requirements has been
found between Bellingham and
Everett, an area of logged-over
land isolated and cheap, but
where a short railroad would
have to be constructed and
wharf built for the receiving
vessels. War department is still
scouting the landscape for an
uiih'.bited 40.000 to 30.000 acres
not hedged by highways.

engaged in Pacific northwest

comes the office of foreign agri
culture relations (branch of the
department of agriculture) and
says "No" in a loud voice. I
Oregon dealers have these seeds j
booked with English buyers who
can not obtain import licenses1
and these buyers are swamping
the Oregon dealers with cable-1

Oregon seeds are on the British

Sometimes a small tattoo mark
may be shaved off and the de
fect filled with a skin gran.
Larger mutilations require
more drastic treatment, such as
the method of Voriot a concen
trated solution of tannic acid is
tatl6oed in, tnen silver nitrate
stick used to rub the whole sur
face vigorously. This turns the
surface black. In a few days an
inflammatory reaction follows,
and an adherent dark crust
forms. In about two weeks the
crust comes away, and the place
becomes covered by a superficial
pink scar which gradually be
omes of normal color. A few
months later the scar is only
slightly noticeable. I repeat, all
of this treatment is reasonably
safe only in the hands of the
physician or surgeon.
Argyria is a slate-colored blu
ish pigmentation of skin with
silver, from prolonged internal
medication with silver nitrate
or prolonged external applica
tion of argyrol or other silver
compounds. The discoloration is
permanent, tho injection into the
skin of a solution of 1 of potas
sium ferricyanide and 6 so
dium thioslfate has proved fairly
successful in removing the dis
coloration in some cases.

In The
Day's
News
By Frcnk Jtnkins
AS these words are written to
day (Thursday) the battle
of Crete is still in doubt
German parachute troops,
drifting down in ever-increasing
numbers from the sky, have
gained two footholds on the 160-mile-long
island.
The German job Is to hold
and REINFORCE these points.
The British-Greek Job is to wipe
out the invaders before ade
quate reinforcements can ar
rive.
THERE Is an ominous note in
the London disclosure that
RAF fighter planes were with
drawn from Crete Tuesday be
cause of the "pronounced dis
advantage of operating from the
few airdromes on the island un
der incessant Stuka dive-bomb
ing attacks."
It Is the old story of German
superiority in the air.
THE Germans are attacking by
water as well as by air.
Churchill announces in Lon
don "A convoy of 30 vessels
was discerned this morning by
our naval forces and presum
ably attacked, although our in
formation stops at that point.
The British navy is in full
action around Crete, hotly at
tacked by the Germans from the
air. The Germans claim to have
damaged one battleship and six
cruisers.
WE can't implicitly believe the
German claims, of 'course,
but it is beginning to look like
the long-talked-of test between
naval and air forces.
If the Germans are able to
weaken the British navy by air
attack, look for what remains
of the Italian navy to come into
the fight. Maybe also the
French.
If the Italians STAY OUT, It
will be safe to guess that the
British navy hasn't been dis
astrously weakened by air as
sault. THIS Mediterranean area is an
ancient cockpit, where men
have fought since time began
It is seeing something new. In
all its countless centuries of
fighting, it has never before
witnessed an attempt to take an
island from the air.
THERE Is a significant note
in the news. The British gar
rison on the Island of Cyprus
has been strongly reinforced by
Australian and New Zealand
troops.
Cyprus will be NEXT.
THE air today . (Thursday) is
full of rumors as always
when a great battle is on.
There is a disturbing one
from Vichy to the effect that
German war materials are mov
ing steadily by rail THROUGH
TURKEY.
That would indicate (if true) :
that the Turks have been
bluffed.
PROM La Linea, In Spain,
comes a report that the Brit
ish are forcibly removing civil
ians and foreigners from 0--'
raltar.
The Implication is that the
long-awaited German attack on
the western gate of the Med
iterranean' is near.
AND reports from German oc
cupied Paris say the French
forces in the Caribbean island
of Martinique have received
orders from Vichy to prepare
for an AMERICAN attack.
The Paris newspaper Le
Matin (The Morning) says the
defense of Martinique will be
centered around the fortress
containing the gold reserves of
the Bank of France (sent there
when the French gave up) and
that the defenders will blow up
the stronghold as a last resort.
French warships at Martinique
have been warming up for sev
eral days.
The war, you see. Is getting
steadily closer to us.
Communications
Army Not Needed, Navy Is
To the editor:
In Sunday's editorial you
maintain that some competent
authority ought to answer the
charge made by Hoover that
this nation is not prepared
r.thcr industrially or In a mili
tary sense to wage war. I do
not claim to be such an au
thority, but I was not aware
that there was either doubt or
conflict on that point. I thought
it was well known and admitted
that the army was neither well
enough trained or equipped, or
even large enough for effective
warfare, but that our navy is
the best afloat, and according
to Secretary Knox It is ready
for Immediate action. No better
minority lhn that is needed.
We -ire also told frequ"'-''v
and on good authority that the
most pressing task Is to keep'
the Atlantic shipping lanes
open. Certainly no program of
preparedness can neglect tne
creation of an enormous ton
nage of shipping. Perhaps that
is the most vital thing of them
all. And how can that tonnage
be increased if ships are sunk
as fast as they are replaced.
It is highly important to save
every ship for they are precious.
The army would be useless
for this task. What is needed is
a navy, and we have one. It
should be used.
I respect Hoover for his sin
cerity and becau; he is a great
American, and thee is reason
in much that he says. But he
is like anyone else an ex-official
and so critical of his suc
cessor. Men are like that, so
we must make allowances for it.
Lloyd George's criticism of
Churchill is comparable. Hoover
is like some other opponents of
intervention. He assumes that
naval action necessarily means
troop action beyond our state
of preparedness. But that can
not be. Certainly we cannot
send abroad armies greater than
cur power to equip or maintain.
The shortage of shipping would
see to that. When we have the
ships to maintain armies abroad,
we will have both armies and
equipment. .
If unpreparedness is justifi
cation for non belligerency,
then what of England. She is
not fully prepared either. No
one is prepared and who will
hold the enemy in check until
we all get ready to fight. That
might be worth thinking about.
There is only one honorable
course to follow. We should em
ploy every means at hand to
check tha military progress of
Germany and employ it as ex
tensively as possible. This
means the use of our navy and
as much of our army as is
trained and we can equip and
maintain. More than that we
cannot do. Certainly we should
do no less.
