Kelly, Jackson county attorney, recently re signed as assistant general counsel of the Bonneville Admin islration, today announced his candidacy for the democratic nomination for congress from the new fourth district. He will file by declaration within a few days. Kelly, a resident of the dis-i trict for 33 of his 37 years, re ceived his grade and high school education in the Medford pub lic schools. He took his six year undergraduate and law school work at the University of Ore gon, graduating in 1927 with a doctor of Jurisprudence degree. He entered law practice in Med ford with his father, the late Colonel E. E. Kelly. The first democrat elected to the state legislature from Jack son county in 20 years, Kelly in 1933 embarked upon what turned out to be a nine-year career in combined state and federal public service. After serving one special and one reg ular session in the house, he was aooointed attorney in the Public Works Administration at Washington, D. C. During his two years in the nation's capital he was pro moted to chief counsel for Ore gon and later to regional coun sel with offices in Portland. In this capacity he assisted in such Oregon developments as the coast highway bridges, the new state capital, the new buildings at the University of Oregon, Oregon State college, Ashland and Monmouth normals, new highways, roads, water and sewer systems throughout the state and in the Bonneville pro ject. Among his more colorful as signments for the government in recent years were those as special assistant to the attorney general at Nome, Alaska, for a six months period in 1940 and as chief counsel for the Neb raska power projects under the Public Works Administration in 1939. Upon his return from Nome. he was appointed assistant gen eral counsel for the Bonneville Administration. In this, and pre ceding positions he has devel oped friendships and contacts in all the major departments of government. Kelly's platform statement follows: "America must mobilize her total resources toward winning the war. I shall devote my full energies and efforts to measures assuring that victory. I shall give President Rdosevelt and our men- In the service my whole-hearted support. "Our liberties must be safe guarded. I am strongly opposed to any appeasement, armistice or compromise with the evil of Hitlerism or Japanese militar ism. There must be rigorous elimination of fifth column ele ments in our midst. I favor the immediate removal of enemy aliens from our coasts and their internment in the interior. "Our national unity must not be endangered by political snip ing, by rumor or by indiscrim inate attacks upon the president, our military and naval com mand or our allies; such tactics place weapons in the hands of our enemies. Freedom of speech and the right of constructive criticism must of course be safe guarded. "We are prepared to make great sacrifices for victory and liberty. There must be no spe cial privileges arising from our war effort. I will support any measures necessary to prevent war profiteering or price infla tion. "We owe great obligations to our men in the service. They must be given the best possible equipment, housing, training, and care. The Jobs they leave to enter the service must be held available for them. "We also owe much to our men and women on the produc tion lines and to the farmers who produce the essential foods Their morale must not be Im paired by threats against the economic equality they have achieved. I favor appropriate measures for the alleviation of hardships suffered by segments of business and labor In changes from non-defense to war basis.

Each convoy and each separ ate ship has its tale of daring, of encounters with the enemy or of sucessfully dodging attack. I came over on the first large convoy to make the non-stop voyage to Australia. Surviving four abortive submarine at tacks, our party of remodelled liners, fast freighters and naval vessels dextrously sidestepped the enemy through 10,000 miles of submarine-infested ocean. Month Required The zig-zag journey took the better part of a month. Submarines sneaked Into at tacking range four times. Each time they were chased away or sunk before they could inflict any damage. All of the attempted attacks occurred on the South Pacific in broad daylight within two weeks. The fourth attack came when the convoy was less than 300 miles from Australia. The third, a few days earlier, was the most daring. Depth charges were dropped upon the attackers at such range that the shock was felt strongly aboard ships of the convoy. The submarines did not come to the surface. Carefully drilled In prepara tion against attacks from under sea, the surface or the air, they followed loud-speaker orders quickly and efficiently whether the command was to clear decks or to stand by lifeboats.

If it means more "fire power" 'for our fighting men every American SRS JLn ANT TYPICAL week of 1941, in average U. S. family ate up about 6 pounds of sugar. As nation we con sumed 7,356,071 ton of wgar last year. That's a lot of sugar. This year sugar must play its vital part in the war. This year sugar will be rationed. And under the ration, we ill will be obliged to cut down on tugar. Here are the reasons behind the ration t e . . For trie rime, we've lost our PhSippt'ne sugar. Lack of available cargo space and the effects of the war will reduce the production of other off-shore areas. We are getting more sugar from Cuba and from Puerto Rico. But this year we must share sugar with our allies with Britain, perhaps with Russia and China. What' more, upward of 1,000,000 ton of sugar may be diverted to make industrial alcohol, which la raw material needed for explo sives. This i the augar that eats mean more fire power for our fighting men. The largest LOG OVERLOAD IS $15 FINE Raymond C. Laurence of Roseburg, on two counts, was fined $15.25 for driving an over loaded logging truck on the Crater Lake highway, by Justice of the Peace W. R. Coleman yes terday.

The ration is more liberal now than the ration we took in stride back in 1918. We'll all have enough sugar to make foods taste good. And one reason we'll have more sugar in Mil war is the sugar now grown imiJi Amer ica. Sugar from the giant silvery sugar beet that flourish in the West. Pure beet sugar looks and tastes exactly the same as any other quality sugar. It's just as pure and wholesome. It acts the same in cooking. And production of beet sugar in the U. S. is over 100 greater now than during the last war. We'll never be without sugar. Remember West the West
