Kelly Announces Candidacy
For Congress Nomination
Edward C. 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.

HEROIC CHAPTER
First Large Convoy Survives
Four Attempted Attacks
By Subs; Month Required
By Vern Haugland
Melbourne, March 19 IP)
When the history of this war is
written, one of the brightest
chapters will deal with the
transport of men, planes and
arms across the dangerous wat
ters of the Pacific a remark
able naval achievement.
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.

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.
