"Morale IN spite of the accepted totalitarian philosophy, this IS a moral world. And the war will be won by those forces determined to keep it so. Not because the decalogue can silence a machine gun. But because the genus homo, regardless of the color of his skin, is a moral animal, and will fight to the death to sustain his OWN moral world. He won't fight with the same fanatical desperation to ad vance the material interests, of a dictatorial govern ment that happens to be in power. This is particularly true when the individual re alizes that that dictatorial government, if victorious, will destroy his moral world, condemn him to live in a universe, where such things as right, and justice, and fair play are unknown, unknown for those who come after him. AX7E realize this is a philosophy which is regarded ' as hopelessly naive and out-of-date, by the Fascist-Nazi propagandists. Yes and by the Kremlin for that matter. But it is the strong conviction of this department, and we believe the outcome of World War No. 2 will demonstrate the eternal truth of it. MOT because there is necessarily any strange mys- tical force per se in what has come to be accep ted as a moral code. But because the moral element, the sense of being eternally right, does represent a definite imponderable, which supports the will-to-win, literally to the death, And when that factor is absent, and the supreme test comes, the army lacking it, sooner or later does break beneath the strain. THERE is nothing accidental therefore in the fact that this imponderable is popularly known as "MORALE". That is what it is. "A mental state, as of a body of men, an army and the like" according to Webster's unabridged. Yes, only a mental state, but based upon a spirit ual foundation I A True AS a postcript to the above, it must be gratifying to the various and sundry celestial observers of this crazy planet, term them theologically as you will, Presumably concerned with the ultimate fate of the uman family, to see at long last, This sleeping giant known as the United States, finally jump out of bed, hop into a cold shower, and proceed to fit himself out in the unfamiliar role as a valiant son of Mars. He is off to a late start, and up to date, far from a happy one. But watch his smoke bretheren, watch his smoke ! And all in the cause of a better world, not for one nation, but eventually for all of them. WE realize this is a time - ncvoVinaia that form f.J . ... tion, which makes the poor fighting nation pray to their raise on high the emblem of enemy WRONG. It is never as simple as that, it is never entirely true. Only in the realm of the imagination (and the scenario studio) is war a with ALL the good on one on the other. The truth is never so conveniently all white or all black, but almost always some type of gray I DUT in this PARTICULAR conflict, we DO believe, it comes nearer to being that, than ever before in the history of the human race 1 And we believe further that that rationalization will stand up under a pretty searching application of realistic analysis and logic. For certainly, considering every element of what has accumulated through the ages as moral truth and wisdom, the forces of Nazi Germany and Militaristic Nippon do represent the perfect antithesis of all those ethical values, and the perfect embodiment of all that through the ages has been accepted by com mon consent as EVIL. TRUTH, honor, justice, fair dealing, even the rudi- merits of human decency have been thrown over board by the present rulers of these two nations and for one reason, and one alone, to win by force, con trol over peoples and lands, that only ask to be free and to be let alone. A ND this is done deliberately because in their ideol ogy, what are known as moral values, are only artificial and arbitrary obstacles set up by the priest hoods and the "have nations", to protect their sacred power and possessions, and deny a place in the sun for the less fortunate and dispossessed nations of the world. It is the doctrine of pagan force that ruled effectively only in the jungle when the genus homo walked on all fours. The victory of the allied forces in this struggle will, and only that victory CAN, mark the des truction and final interment, if that completely anti Christian, fallacious and unliveable conception !

THE MAGIC SUGAR From away back, this column has been strong for sugar, candy and other sweets. Within rea son, within reason. Pray don't confuse Or Doc Brady with Santa Claus. It pains me worse than It does you, children when I say there are times and con ditions when it is advisable to take candy Dr. Brady away from a baby, pap from a growing child and ice cream and cake from a bouncing belle or a buxom mat ron. Naturally I'd rather be over on the bowling green when the operation is performed, but still. If you pinned me down, I would not hesitate to say that It must be done for the sake of the patient's ultimate welfare and happiness. Different kinds or forms of su gar may have slight technical differences, but practically such differences are Insignificant so far as the use of sugar as food or medicine is concerned. Dextrose or glucose (two names for the same thing), sucrose (or beet or cane or sorghum sugar), lactose (milk sugar), maltose (glucose or dextrose produced by germina tion of grain) or levulose (fruit sugar), it doesn't matter which you prefer, one Is as good as the other for Infant, child or adult Molasses, cane syrup, corn syrup, sorghum syrup, maple syrup they're the same in digestibility and nutritive value, with only differences in flavor or taste or appearance. There is no foundation for the fancy that a person with diabetes can safely take one kind of sugar If the quantity taken exceeds his or her carbohydrate tolerance. The height of absurdity In ref erence to the use of sugar by obese persons is attained by this elucidation of the matter recent ly published: "Dextrose actually helps burn extra fat A relatively small amount of it relieves the hunger pangs of those who are dieting. Dextrose, in brief, Is a non-fattening sweet because it is absorbed into the blood so quickly and completely that it can't accumulate as fat." That settles it dextrose Is the magic sugar, all right, only I do wish the prestidigitator would carry on and explain what hap-' Kelly's Comment From Washington Coast May Aid Rubber Supply Lack of Rubber Fault of MRC No Provision for Logging Tirea r By Joha W. Kelly Washington, D. C, Jan. 6. In the search for substitutes for natural rubber to meet the de mand of some 33.000.000 motor vehicle owners who will be de prived of new tires, the govern ment is looking to the Pacific northwest as well as the Rocky mountain states. The depart ment of agriculture has commis sioned Dr. George Hyslop of Ore gon State college (he happens to be conferring with the depart ment on other agrarian matters') to make a study and report on the possibility of cultivating a species of dandelion from which can be fxtracted a Juice, or milk, readily manufactured into rub ber. Offhand and without having time to return to Oregon and Washington, Dr. Hyslop declares he Is positive that the dandelion can be grown In the northwest, but he will make the survey In detail In a few weeks. The dandelion Is larger than the kind speckling lawns and ! which are an eye-sore to house holders. The sire may be the : result of cultivation. However. : the dandelions for the rubber i experiment can be grown In al ; most any soil that Is reasonably rich. If the department of agri 1 culture proceeds In this direc i tion the next step will be the ' Installation of small Industries : to collect the dandelion milk and give It primary treatment. Ap parently almost any soil (except ' arid) In the northwest states that ' can grow vegetation Is adaptable 1 to the dandelions. ! For the Rocky mountain states the guayule bush may be ' planted, and this is the nearest approach to natural rubber in the United States. A few hun dred sores are grv.wn commcrci ally in California. The guayule a';jfr f"e-V Brady. M. D. pens to the dextrose after It has been absorbed into the blood? Trouble with ordinary sugars Is they are too likely to be convert ed into fat after they have been absorbed into the blood. That is the inexorable law of physiol ogy. But dextrose, dear me, if you can absorb it quickly enough you just carry it around in your blood and you need never give a thought to getting fat. All this, like all magic, is of course the bunk.

'meets aU requirements and can i begin producing In two years, j Two synthetic rubber Industries I are now experimenting (govern ment financed) in southern states and will produce about 20 000 tons of butadiene in 1942. This Is the same material that the Germans are using. Its produc tion is expensive and after the war the plants will be abandoned ; when natural rubber Is again available. ! ' , MUCH of this tire trouble can be laid at the door of Metals Re serve corporation, which failed to build up a stockpile of rubber from Malaya when it had the j opportunity and when north j western spokesmen were urging j the buildup two years ago. Some I rubber was brought In, not much, for assurances were given that ; there was a year's supply on j hand and American freighters were taken off the Pacific and sent to the Red sea. Africa and , elsewhere with munitions for the ' British. Metals Reserve Corp. anticipated no interruption of a steady flow of rubber. Follow j.ing December 7, last, the cor poration discovered onlv 818.000 : tons of crude rubber were im ported (costing $313,000 000) and the automotive industry used 1 650.000 tons, 75 per cent going to inner tubes and casings. There i Is less than an eight months' sup ply now. I More than 90 per cent of the motor vehicles In the northwest ; (approximately 580,000 in Wash ington, 400 000 In Oregom will be compelled to look for retreads i when the present tires are worn lout. It Is estimated that small I retread establishments can be found in all the larger towns. In ; many minor communities and they will spread into rural areas : to care for the needs of farmers, i A good retread tire has about 80 ; per cent of the mileage of a new tire. Retread business accounted for seven million tires last year, only three million short of caoa tity of the 4.000 retread plants in the country. a NO provision is made to sup ply new tires for the logging trucks which spin along the high ways carrying logs to sawmills and plywood plants. These are tires capable of holding up tons of weight. The northwest log ging truck has been discovered by the army as just what Is needed for mobile cannon, and on the proving grounds at Aber deen test is beuig made of a new logging truck devised by a west ern logger. The logger was of fered $500 for engineering; it i had cost him $13,000. i Logging trucks cover the I roughest ground, carrying the ! heaviest loads and they appeal I to the army for there are no I such trucks anywhere except in the backwoods and on the high ways of Washington and Oregon. They can take a gun anywhere. If war department decides it needs these logging trucks a plant for their manufacture may be built somewhere in the north west but, the army will prob ably give the order to an eastern firm that never made a truck, see TIN supplies, cut off by Jap anese operations, no longer come from Malaya. This Is causing OPM a headache, for something must be done to keep the numer ous fish, fruit and vegetable can neries supplied with containers for the approaching season. In 1941 the canneries reduced the tin coating on cans and this must again be reduced unless other containers, such as glass, are substituted. Glass would re quire a different treatment to toughen It for cannery purposes. Coast salmon packers are asking the government to convoy their ships to Bristol bay and back again because of the Japanese menace in the Pacific. Wants Army Te Take Over To the editor: We have had too much Inter ference In military matters by the civilian representatives. Congress, up to the declaration of war, had a finger in every thing of a military nature, and the "pull-haul" program left us unprepared for the war with Japan, which nearly every per son on the Pacific coast, and many in Washington knew was absolutely sure to come. This morning's papers state that Senator McNary Is not In favor of placing defense projects further inland. If the senator will read Raymond Clapper's article in the Oregon Journal for Jan. 3, 1942, he will under stand why politics MUST be left out of this matter. It will be a great deal cheaper in the long run to build inland and move the plant to the orig inal location after the war than It will be to build it at Fair view, have it bombed, and have to rebuild it further inland aft erward or to do without it en tirely after the machinery is de stroyed. What we need Is new blood In Washington men who read and study from a military de fense and offense angle, in stead of a "you scratch my back and 1 11 scratch yours from the political standpoint. Because things "done In halves are never done right," we have sustained the loss of our stepping stones to the Orient and the lives of many good Americans who because of their special training, can not be replaced at once. The loss of these outposts and the "loss of face" to us in the Oritnt will cost us dearly. On the debit page of the Con gressional ledger may be writ ten in red Ink, the loss of Guam and Its personnel; the loss of Wake and Its brave defenders; the practically lost Philippines, Including Cavlte, Manila; the possible loss of Hawaii and Midway. The attacks on Alaska (to come). The attacks on the Pac ific coast cities and we know they could have done this as they flew over San Francisco. The possible attack on the Pan ama canal. It Is time the military, if we are to profit by our lessons, had full control of the defen sive and offensive machinery for the nation, not to be inter fered with by these "penny wise, life-foolish" Republicans or Democrats we send to Wash ington. The lives of men so far lost in the war with Japan, were given by them to gain time for us to get ready for the war AFTER the war was declared Who paid for the time congress threw away from 1924 until to day?

Communications TAPS SOUNDS AT LAST RITES FOR Funeral services were held at I p. m. today in the Conger cha pel for James C. Woods, 94, one of the few remaining civil war veterans In Oregon, who passed away Saturday at his home In Central Point. The Rev. R. W. Coleman conducted the last rites and services at the Interment in Siskiyou Memorial Park were concluded by the blowing of taps. Mr. Woods resided in Jackson county for 34 years, 30 years of which were spent in Medford and the last four years in Cen tral Point He was beloved by hosts of friends throughout the county. He was born at St. Clairsvllle, Ind., Oct. 20, 1847 and on May 2, 1864, enlisted as a private in Company A, 163d regiment of Ohio national guards and was honorably discharged Sept. 10, 1864. In 1938, he with his wife, now deceased, went to Gettysburg. Pa., to again view the old battle field which he had known so long ago. a Mr. Woods will be remember ed as taking part in all local patriotic parades as long as be was able. He was married to Mary Fi delia Morrison at York, Neb., in May, 1883 and came west in 1900 and for a time, resided at Ritzville, Wash., before coming to Jackson county. He was a member of the Christian church here. One daughter, Velma Dooley, resides at Redding, Calif. Four grandchildren also survive, Mrs. Lola Morgan of Fairbanks, Alas ka; Donald Dooley, Redding, Calif.; Walter Dooley and Loren McCollom, both In the U. S. army. News Behind The News By Paul Mallon (Continued Prom Page One) is twice as close as our nearest base, which may prove to be a very important fact when the Philippines fall. It requires 36 days to send a pursuit plane or tank by boat to Singapore through the In dian ocean. What of the morale of our troops in the Philippines after they had been yowling for months for planes, saying they were sitting on a powder keg. Will Turkey fight? Maybe, but they have not said so, and they probably won't if Hitler jumps from Sardinia into Tun isia. For the winter campaigns In Africa and the near east. Hit ler again will enjoy Inner lines of supply, whereas the British will . have difficulty shifting forces and supplies. With the British fleet dis persed over the Atlantic and Mediterranean, is Britain well fixed to meet an Invasion threat? e e TTHE word "Impregnable" must be abandoned for the duration. Corregldor is merely a well-prepared fortress, open to bombing, capable only of with standing siege until the last man is gone. The British really only figured to hold Hongkong for six weeks or so, because the million Inhabitants (mostly Chinese) had to rely for water upon reservoirs on the open hillside, held only by concrete dams. The Japs got them In half that time. Singapore Is the only really well defended spot in the far east, yet it is open to the air. At least a six-months' supply of oil and gas Is supposed to be well cached beyond the reach of bombs, far below surface. Nothing on the face of this earth is impregnable now unless you have supremacy in the air, at that point. Then practically anything Is impregnable, e e e MHEN Pravda, one of the of " ficlal red newspapers (there are no others In Rufsia), ac cused General MacArthur of cowardice In declaring Manila an open city to save it from bombing, no one here even look. ed up. Pravda wanted to know wny it was not defended like Leningrad and Moscow. If Pravda had asked anyone who nas been to Manila, or looked the city up in the encyclopedia, it would have found out. The ground of Manila is almost level with the bay. The water table is three feet below the surface. Not only was it tm possible to dig air raid shelters down into this water for 600 000 persons, but few of the houses could even have a base ment for protection. Wooden houses line streets so narrow two autos cannot pass. About 22,000 persons lived in the 22 acres of the old walled city. If MacArthur had subjected this Indefensible fire trap to bombing he would have been guilty of an Inhuman crime. Pravda, with onry the red government as its source of news, continues to be the worst informed piyer in the world.
