BRUSH FIRE ON COLEMAN CREEK CALLS PUMPERS The state forest patrol this afternoon sent two crews of four men each and two pumpers to a brush fire near Coleman creek southwest of Phoenix. The fira covered three or four acres, the patrol office said. Two of the four reported light ning fires on the Rogue River national forest were out today and the other two had not been found, headquarters stated. Headquarters said it was pos sible that a mistake might have been made In reporting the two fires not found, though a vigi lance was being maintained un til all danger had passed. All the fires were in the AppleKate district over which the light ning storm passed Sunday night John Campbell, Applegate farmer, plans to rebuild his home, forest headquarters said today. The residence with all its contents was destroyed by fire Saturday. It was situated across the Big Applegate river from the Applegate store on what used to be called the Can trail ranch. The fire spread into nearby timber and the blaze was put out by a Star ranger sta tion crew. Acting War Secretary Says President Also Favors Re' moval of 900,000 Limit Washington, July 15. (IP) President Roosevelt asserted to day that disintegration of the army was at stake and that con gress would not ba breaking faith if it let the army keep selectees and guardsmen In service more than a year. - The chief executive told a press conference that in the orig inal selective service act there was a proviso that If it were necessary draftee could be re tained in service either through a declaration of a national emergency by congress or through an amendment to the law. Washington, - July 15. UP) Robert P. Patterson, acting sec retary of war, formally advised congress today that President Roosevelt favored retention of national guardsmen, reserve of ficers and draftees in the army beyond the 12-month period orig inally prescribed by congress. Also, Patterson said, the presl- dent desires removal of the 900, 000 limitation on the number of draftees which can be in ser vice at any one time. A letter to Speaker Rayburn from Patterson said legislation to accomplish those ends has the approval of the president." Cannot Speculate "The sequence of German con quests which has continued un interruptedly from Austria to Russia has been based on the anticipated failure of the coun tries concerned properly to pre pare against invasion," Patter son wrote. "They have in each case launched an overwhelming force against an unprepared army. We can not speculate with the security of this nation. In view of the "known events of the last year" and particu larly of the last few months, Patterson wrote,' demobilization of the army at this time "would be to court disaster." Gen. George C. Marshall, chief of staff, was disclosed today to have told congress that specially trained army units, instead of n.arlnes, should have occupied Iceland, but were prevented from doing so because of diffi culties presented by the one-year draft service rule. sibl for man to be a patriotic American who does not believe in the principles on which our great country was founded? And evidently Lindbergh does not. However execrable the Bolshevist species of Commu nism may be it must be ack nowledged that pure undefiled Communism is based on a prin ciple Identical with one every true American is supposed to cherish that all men are creat ed equal. And this is diametri cally opposed to the devilish doctrine Hitler and his gang preaeh and practice. A doctrine that is an infinitely greater menace to human freedom than any form of Communism, how ever undesirable and impracti cable the later may be. It is unfortunate for Mr. Lind bergh that having started his public career as the world's most famous aviator he should be bent on ending it as the world's most notorious fifth columnist. W.
