Many hope it will bring them either good luck or bad luck, as they are weary of struggling along with neither. . "Mrs. R , mother of the bridegroom, was attired In a soft blue lace dress which fell to the floor." (Raleigh (NO Ob server) The Invisible straps on the strapless gown weren't there. SOUNDS LOGICAL (Red Bluff (Calif.) News) "We are not aware that anyone has ever prophesied the second coming of Satan. But If such prophecy has ever been made, the prophet must feel that the sudden appear ance of Adolf Hitler is the answer. The Fuehrer has everything we have ever as sociated with hell on earth. And we don't mean maybe." - The secretary of the navy an nounces "from here on subver sive and communistic elements will be treated as public ene mies" by the government. This, he states, includes the "red" union leaders, who have mis taken the right of free speech for the right of free hellraising on the labor front. The skeptical feel this worthy objective will not amount to much, due to many statesmen in Congress coming up for re-election next spring. Portland launched Its annual Rose festival yesterday, with the mercury at 88 degrees an all time record. It Is unique to have the Queen's crown melt from the heat, instead of being washed away by the rain. In Klamath Falls police court, three men were accused of rub bing a dog's nose on the necks of patrons of an eating house. This deserves a Pulitier prize for originality in low-down cus sedness. AT LONO LAST (Canyon City (Ore) News) "One of the highlights not on the program, though why it has not happened before is a mystery, was the hold snatching of the bank roll of one of the gambling tables in the "Hank" Cresap pastime Friday evening." . In the current national emer gency editors are railing atten tion to the efficiency of the "melting pot," without calling the reader's attention to the ef ficiency with which it did not melt in the first World War. Tomorrow approximately 500 new laws passed by the last ses sion of the legislature will go into effect. Included In the ava lanche is only one that really matters. It puts the speed on Oregon highways, lanes, byways and alleys at S3 miles per. Any number of speed Idiots will have to slow down 23 mph. Another measure enables Communists to have their name on the ballot while running for office. This should help out a lot, and add to the political maelstrom every two years. NO. I RUMOR 'In one type the narrator Is in a position to declare on the most unimpeachable authority that there really Is no such person as Adolf Hitler. The person who the last eight years has been masquerading as such is really a woman, the favorite niece of Joseph Stalin. She quietly took the place of the original Fuehrer when he was carried off by a sudden attack of flu two days after he became chancellor." (New York Times. I'm Man liisoss east ads. Germany Husbands Strength For Huge Summer Offensive (ThU daily ftfttur, conducted bf DdWltt McknsU. U blng written In hii abtnc on vacation by Frad Vandarichmldt) The reich is husbanding its air might and regrouping its armies for the climatic offensive of the summer. The British ap pear to be fairly sure that this offensive will be directed with the greatest ferocity against the valley of the Nile and Suez, against the armies of Egypt's western desert and delta; behind the backs of the imperial troops in Syria, Palestine, Iraq. Nothing Certain No one can predict this with certainty. Winston Churchill this week pointed out to the British people that the Germans, controlling Europe's whole chain of permanent airports and the entire continental railway sys tem, can put a vast movement of aircraft and armies into re verse in very little time. Right now there is a new rash of London reports that Germany is concentrating tremendous armies on the Soviet border and, perhaps, threatening a move ment through the Russian Uk raine and Caucasus in order to seize Iran and pinch off the whole British position east of Suez. This may be fact, It may be fancy and it may be merely wishful of a German-Russian conflict, which certainly looks doubtful at this point. But things are In shape for the assault In North Africa and, again to quote Mr. Churchill, the formidable threat of the Axis armies at the western Egyptian border must remain. above all, Britain's chief preoc cupation in the Middle East. Biggest Fight Yet The fight there is bound to be on a much greater scale than any yet contested on either shore of the Mediterranean. With the imperial conquerors of Italian East Africa flowing northwestward to bulward the defense of the Nile, the British may be a match in manpower for the Germans and Italians, who unquestionably have been reinforced with men and tanks by every sea-borne means. From the standpoint of planes and ma i r HAIRCUTS, MISTERS t Four nawalltns arrived In Honolulu with good excuses for the long hair: Ihry'd been en lonely Jsrvls. Endrrbury and Rowland Islands.

German planes in vast num bers have swarmed with ease down through Europe and into the Mediterranean area; they may, by now, be using French as well as Italian bases on both shores of the sea. Dive bombers have made the western Medi terranean approaches too hot for the priceless British convoys carrying planes, tanks and guns to Egypt. Mr. Churchill's revealing speech of Tuesday disclosed that British planes, by contrast, are being shipped in crates all the way from home to the African cape and there set up for over land flight to the Middle East. Other materiel, he indicated, is going all the way around the cape and into the Red Sea and thus, from point of origin to point of action, this materiel is useless for many weeks. EX-J1LE MAN DIES IN FLORENCE Joseph Broad, former Jack, sonville resident, died this morn ing In the home of his sister, Mrs. Anna Sullivan of Florence, friends were Informed by tele gram. He was 39.

THAT METALLIC TASTE A woman complains that for the past three months food smells and tastes metallic to her. In her kitchen she has used aluminum ware, for the past 15 or 16 years. She wonders whether the aluminum ware, after many years of dally use, can thus give off disagreeable smell or taste. She remarks, however, that she is the only one in the family who seems to be sensitive of this metallic smell and taste. There is no actual evidence that Ingestion of aluminum or any combination of aluminum in or with food or otherwise in everyday life ever causes any injury to health. This is the pre vailing view of competent au thorities. One possible explanation of the bad taste and smell of which the correspondent complains is a lesion of the trifacial nerve or a branch of it supplying the tongue. Another is a brain tu mor this is a remote possibil ity only. Another Is the pres ence In the mouth of two dis similar metals perhaps some filling or other denture recently installed. If this is the case, she should consult her dentist about removal of the newer denture and substitution of one of the same metal as she had in older fillings or crown or whatnot. Many medicines, both nos trums taken casually by the pa tient and remedies prescribed by the physician, may cause un pleasant taste or smell. Some expectant mothers com plain of bad taste in the mouth more or less constantly. Simple neglected caries (cav ity) or a cavity that may be overlooked because It is in be tween teeth closely in contact, sometimes causes both unpleas ant taste and smell. Taste consists of flavor and savor. Savor is a function of the olfactory nerves, for in stance the savor of good coffee or baking bread. Flavor is the funclio'i of the taste buds of the tongue and the nerves supplying them. Savor is defective when there Is some trouble in the nose involving the olfactory nerve terminals In tha mucous mem brane lining the nasal passages. Flavor is defective only when the taste buds and gustatory nerves of the tongue are dam aged; when flavor Is defective the Individual cannot distin guish the taste of a salt from the taste of sugar or a bitter substance. 0.1 ESTIONS at ANSWERS t'ormaldrhde t work In a wall paper plant.

THE CAPITAL PARADE By JOSEPH ALSOP and ROBERT KINTNER fContlnueft Prom Pave One) maintained their Independence for many centuries, Hitler's sway is all but undisputed. Re bellion is impossible. If the unarmed populations seek to rebel, the air fleets and the Panzer divisions will ad minister to them the punishment of Rotterdam, where in a short space of an hour the richest part of a great city was levelled to the earth, and 26,000 unre sisting civilians were done to death. Because these things are so, Hitler is already organizing his conquered territories as in tegral parts of the Nazi system. Although wishful thinkers here believe that the Nazis will not be able to digest their triumphs when the war is over, the actual fact is that in the midst of a gi V-rtf t is? A . gantic war effort, when 80 per cent of their energy is diverted to other purposes, the Germans are successfully putting to work for themselves the industry and the agriculture of France, Bel gium, Holland, Denmark and all the rest of their new domain. e A GAIN because these things are so, there is no reason to suppose that Hitler will have difficulty in organizing the even vaster conquests that will be his if Britain goes under. Then not only all of Europe, but also the British Isles and Africa will directly or indirectly acknowl edge his authority and obey his commands. The industries and shipyards, the mines and raw materials, the agriculture, and all that is left of Europe's naval and military material will be his to dispose of as he chooses. And thus he will not only, at a single stroke, surpass this coun try in every form of armed strength, but will also hopeless ly outdistance us in the means to produce armed strength. Nor will the new order end with the organization of Europe and Africa by the Nazis. Even tf Hitler does not choose to force her complete submission, Russia will be his vassal ally. In the Far East, China, cut off from aid, will be defeated. The un equipped Australians and New Zealanders will be beaten down. A new Japanese empire will arise, to take our trade, and prevent our access to the vital raw materials, rubber and tin, which we cannot obtain elsewhere. And In South America, where the wishful thinkers build their , brightest dream palaces, there I will also be changes. Even now, l the Nazi economic and political infiltration of this hemisphere is so serious that the state de partment and the military and naval intelligences live in daily fear of pro-German putsches in several South American nations. The South American economy is dependent on Europe. The South American governments. each of them tight little oligar chies, admire success. If Ger many win; the war, South America will become a politico economic province of Nazidom. DECAUSE the German armed strength and means for pro ducing armed strength will be infjnitely greater than ours, the United States will be powerless to protest and impotent to as sert influence in the world of the new order. Far from being able to say to Brazil, for exam ple "this must be done, that not," we shall be encircled and beleaguered in our own conti nent. In the Pacific we shall be forced to withdraw all but a remnant of our strength, which will be left to hold the bastion of Hawaii.

Even at this day. naval war1 plans are ready for concentrat ing our power in the Caribbean, in a grim effort to protect our back door. e e e PROTECTION of our back door will not serve, however. In the world of the new order, tha United States will not need to be invaded in order to be destroyed. For first will come economic chaos, the inevitable result of our sudden isolation from the world economy we have always belonged to. Then, out of economic chaos will come political disunion. A powerful faction will say, "Let us trade with Germany. Let us make a deal." The Nazi conquerors will remark smiling ly, "certainly you may trade with us. but first you must show your confidence in the new or der by abandoning your sense less, feverish production of of fensive armament." The wise will protest, but the party of appeasement will grow. To the economic pressures, will be add ed political pressures, applied by all the well-tried Nazi methods of propaganda, bribery and public corruption. And in the end, our people, divided, grop ing and bewildered, will one day see the way of life and form of government they have known from their birth suddenly dis integrate before their eyes. This is what the men who have the facts at their disposal see in the future. It is not what is seen by Senator Burton K. Wheeler and Colonel Charles Lindbergh, with their puzzling talk of "new leadership," and their endless repetition of the same slogans that were heard in Austria, Czechoslavakia, Poland, Norway, Denmark, Holland, Bel glum, Rumania, Bulgaria, Jugo slavia, Greece and France, be fore those nations learned the harsh lesson of experience. Pos sibly no nation learns by the ex perience of others.
