Germany and Turkey have ligned a "friendship pact." The next nazl move will be to itab Turkey In the back with It. The highly cultivated corn of the valley, carefully planted at the right time of the moon, and given a good itart with spec ially prepared fertilizer on plowed, raked and hoed ground, is coming along fine, and is about half high as a stray weed seed that started In grow ing where it happened to land and pulled up by the roots every time a mad farmer sees it. . "She did not give the name Canova so I can't say It was her, but was I told it was." (Ashland Tidings) Search us! The Older Girls are now strong for "wilted lettuce" for dieting. They will have nothing to do with lettuce that is wilted of its own free will and accord. They superintend the wilting themselves. "The man was described to police as being about 35 years old. five feet 10 inches tall, weight about 170 pounds, and wearing a green truck driver's uniform." (This Paper) They often drive that way. V The esteemed Bend Bulletin editorially remarks the new 93 mph. speed law is flabbergast ing and befuddling to one and all. Further, says the Bulletin, "in a column article of fine print in a recent Portland paper Senator Dorothy McCullough Lee, author of the law, tried to explain it but without much success." It seems the motorist needs a law book under the hood and a lawyer in the back scat. BLESS HER HEAHTI (Heppner (Ore.) News) "Earl Thomson is on th police force. He also saw the old lady with the horse and buggy and the dogs on the highway. She had traded her black horse for a bay that didn't like the highway traf fic and had to be led part of the way. In holding up the traffic she told all and sundry about everything." At the school election 32 voters appeared. The voters Just won't pour out in an outpouring unless they are mad at a Repub lican, or the school directors should be linked with bonneville power. The government has ordered restriction of immigration from the Axis lands. No longer can an alien land in New York, and be in the picket line at Detroit in record time.

"One s Born Every Minute " 1M0NEY IS the root of all evil as far as prize " fighting is concerned. But for the big money in it, Billy Conn would never have agreed to a match with the world champion, Joe Louis. For they are not in the same pugilistic class. No men are who don't come within 25 pounds of the same weight. ONN'S defeat last night, therefore, was practically a certainty. Of course there can be upsets in pugilism as in any other sport, and the sports writers worked hard to pull one off at the Polo Grounds, but this depart ment is extremely skeptical about these familiar "build-ups." It's really nothing but the old army game. As Al Smith once remarked, no matter how thin you cut it, it is still baloney. I TPSETS, we repeat, can happen in any sport. But barring accidents, or a sudden collapse on the part of the chocolate bomber, which isn't at all likely, the next match in the fall will result precisely as the match last night resulted. The crowd will again go to see "Lil' David" beat Goliath, plunk down their cash, yell their heads off when Billy shows his skill and stamina, and then when Brother Blackburn thinks the boys have had their half million dollars' worth, he will point a pudgy black thumb downward, and Joe will shoot the works, with that 25-pound advantage behind it, while his dusky financial assistants haul in the jackpot. It's too bad. Box-fighting is a great sport, properly conducted. But in the upper brackets high tinanee has ruined it Not According to Hoyle VES, as the A. P. war expert remarks, this second world war is giving the experts of the first a terrible headache. For nothing is proceeding as predicted. Almost everything is going in reverse. This is true particu larly in the diplomatic arena. IN the first "unpleasantness" England suffered many defeats on the field, but none in diplomacy. England started out to isolate Germany and succeeded. When the United States came in, the Kaiser was fighting on two fronts, really four, completely alone. The triple alliance, supposed to maintain the "balance of power" for the Central Powers, had been liquidated. Italy, as usual, looking for the winner, had been bribed to desert Germany and deserted. Austria-Hungary had been check mated, and Turkey forced to crawl out on a limb, which only had to be sawed off. THE process has been reversed in this conflict. 1 Hitler's effort was to isolate England. With the signing of the Nazi-Turkey pact yesterday, preceded by the defeat of Poland, Czechoslovakia and France, and the non-aggression pact with Russia, this has practically been accomplished. TODAY Britain is in relatively the same spot 1 Germany was in 23 years ago, fighting alone, on a multitude of fronts, at sea on land and in the air; while the countries of Europe that Hitler has not crushed are directly, or indirectly, his allies. Not So THE outlook, however, isn't as bad as the above wtiorVif ir,4?.AVA If illnw'd .,...,.,. 1, t 1 ,1 . . unjoin, uiuaaic, aimci a Duittros iias HUL uctll uue to any improvement in his diplomatic department. Germany is still the "world's worst" as far as inter course with other nations as the Nazis stay in control In fact, were it not for in war preparation, particularly in the air, Hitler would probably be as completely isolated today as was the Kaiser a couple certainly has no good-will support. All the support he does have (and this includes Italy) proceeds from fear, backed up by force. TAKE this Turko-Nazi ally, England, and agree to aid Germany, if it were not for that loaded gun at her head? Also Russia. VyE still doubt that Stalin resists the latest Nazi ' demands with force. But if so there will be only one reason for his reluctance, the fear that an all-out war with the Nazi blitzkrieg machine today would he a Soviet catastrophe, and particularly the end of Joseph. That's all. With Russia, as with all the other German allios. rpal or nntontial. fpnr. haokpd tin hv I ; ' - - , ' . r - . superior force, is the only cohesive factor. Let that superior force once slip, as with all-out U. S. aid it eventuallv SHOULD, and watch the house of cards Der Reichsfuehrer has built up collapse like a circus balloon hitting a lighted cigaret! CO while this World War No. 2 has gone in reverse, as far as diplomatic expectations are concerned, properly undci-stood, the situation isn't as dark as the defeatists league makes out. It never is when the moral factor, and world goodwill, is on th side that may temporarily be jetting the worst of it Dark is concerned, and as long will so continue. that three-year head-start of decades ago. for he pact, for example.

Which on ly Insured a strict caution that no one was to disturb or remove the naval dressing in my ab sence else I could not be re sponsible for the consequences. A good mother must neces sarily double as nurse when a member of her family is ill and in this capacity she performs miracles in time of peril. When the doctor gives a direction or instructs mother to do thus and so he knows his directions will be faithfully followed. But in reference to minor ills mother, in her zeal to take things in time or to emulate her more inspired conception of the trained nurse, frequently does a Saireygamp. For example: "You advised mothers to throw away their clinical thermometers. I have one and I use it when any of my five children gets sick. If the old est boy, going to school, gets sick with fever, and the rest of the children get sick In turn, I use the thermometer on them to see when they will get well again. I don't let them up until a day or two after their fever is gone. I always thought it would be dangerous to let them run around the house if they have fever, and I wouldn't know they had fever unless I took their temperatures. We lost one child from pneumonia; and I've been keeping the children in bed whenever they have fever since then. "I've often wondered about using a clinical thermometer at home, because my brother (Continued Prom Page One) mered on this idea for several months It Is only beginning to take hold in a few places; in three counties in nearby Vir ginia, and in Connecticut.

Din tney can do a good Job of another sort. OPM wants every one of these re sources put to work. How to do it is the question. NO better machine shops can be found in Oregon than those in Klamath Falls Th.r. ar h, shops at Bend. At Baker there are shops, and at LaGrande. The Dalles. Astoria, Albany. Salem and elsewhere. Most of these ShoPS are SO well wininfuxl mtA so manned with skilled mech anics that they can build a loco motive, a marine nain - Scotch boiler for a canto carrier.

The effect on Britain is not so immediate, although the treaty is, of course, intended by the nazis as a war politics wea pon in their long-range strategy against the British in the Near East. The treaty closes the last ef fective route by which western aid might conceivably reach Russia, at a time when Germany seems, to be telling the Soviet that they must either enter into a state of economic, political and military subjugation or fight an enormous concentration of nazi troops from the Baltic to the Black Sea. Shuts Off Air Bases It shuts off the air bases from which British planes might at tack German troops in Russia. The Black Sea already is so fringed with German air power that it would be a trap for the British fleet, although Turkey might, under previous obliga tions, be required to let that fleet get through the Dardanel les to go to Russia's aid. The Turkish pact permits 'Germany to begin the familiar process of infiltration and dom ination of Turkey; to weaken Turkish resistance in prepara tion for the day when the reich may find it convenient to use Asia Minor as a military road to Syria and Suez. Britain is not surprised, nor are there any illusions in Lon don about the treaty's escape clause which on paper permits the continuation of the Turkish British alliance. This treaty, ne gotiated almost exactly two years ago, pledged France, Bri tain and Turkey to help each other "in case of ah act of ag gression which might lead to war in the Mediterranean re gion." But the pact went Into a state of coma with the fall of France, which was to have sup plied and equipped Turkey, and very shortly thereafter Turkey made it plain she would not fight unless attacked. Turkey Isolated She kept her powder dry when swept through the Bal kans and as a result was almost completely isolated from Britain. Britain has been trying to unlock that isolation by her advance through Syria, but her progress has not been swift enough to counter the German pressure on Ankara. Turkey, forced into the posi tion of a little Russia, unwilling to take the risk of military de struction at a time when she could get little help, signed the pact in the hope of gaining time, praying that something may happen to upset the German war wagon before Hitler finds the time appropriate to ask or take something else from the Turkish.
