We don't know the exact date, but at least a dec ade ago, this popular weekly abandoned a long and lucrative course of nonpartisan endeavor in the light literary field, to become a quasi-political organ. The editor-in-chief was replaced by an editorial staff, and instead of publishing editorials on very general and academic subjects, nicely calculated to arouse no resentments, or cancellations; the sanctum sanctorum, entering vigorously into politics, proceed ed to take the hide off Franklin Delano Roosevelt and the New Deal. AT the time practically every experienced publicist reeled back in bug-eyed amazement, and pre dicted the quick decline of the Post's popularity and subscription list. It just COULDN'T be done! No fic tion weekly could remain the most popular and wide ly read periodical in the country, and at the same time, dabble in partisan politics. But the expected never happened. Undoubtedly the Post lost some subscribers, but not enough to discourage advertisers or reduce ad vertising, which is only another way of saying the percentage loss was small, very small, indeed. THEN world war No. 2 came along. Tha carina nnnnaitinn tn trio Rnnepvplt. nrlirnnii- tration and all its works that had characterized the Post during the national campaigns, was carried over into the explosive field of world politics, 1 Over night the Post became strongty isolationist, only exceeded in its determination to keep the United States out of the European conflict by such newspapers as the New York News and the Chicago Tribune. A GAIN the journalistic and magazine Cassandras predicted dire things for Ben Franklin's great-great-great grandchild. But again the prophets were confounded. No doubt there were many subscriptions can celled. Also no doubt some new subscriptions were gained. But once more, the net result was not enough to drive away the advertisers, (and don't forget this boys and girls, national advertisers don't pungle up thousands of dollars a page, unless they know what the bona fide subscription list really is ! ) DERHAPS emboldened by this amazing upset of a venerable and highly respected magazine tradi tion, the editors of the Post, proceeded to rush on ward where angels fear to problem 1 Not editorially this partment, allowing various and sundry members of the chosen people to give the pros and cons of this world wide racial conflict. As a result a certain New York City, owner of 50 lishing company s common files suit in the U. S. District court to compel the Post to "abandon stirring up racial feeling," and adopting editorial policies injurious to the magazines tinanciai welfare, which complainant fears will ultimately re sult in complete dissipation of the company's assets and good will. JUST as the Posts successful entanglement in parti- san politics, was something entirely new in the magazine field; so we believe is this court action by an outraged and very minor stockholder. 1 he next move is up to the bathvef ost. It will be interesting to see whether the Great American Weekly will take this hurdle in its stride, as it has those proceeding, or at long last come a cropper, and thus demonstrate that those self-appointed oracles who maintained at the outset that in the popular fiction field, politics and profits CAN'T be mixed, were right in the first place. "The Lady or the Tiger"! A Good ""THAT was i very good show commemorating "total war day" and given at the high school football field last night Those in charge of same should be congratulated. There were not many speeches, but those given were free from whangdoodle, and very much to the Eoint, while the distinguished gentlemen who came efore the microphone, and said nothing, made an equally excellent impression.

Finally Frank Hull, Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce made an exceptionally energetic and re sourceful master-of-ceremonies, which fact, added to his tireless efforts in the work of intensive prepara tion, entitles him to a special accolade.

William Brad;, tS CI Caralaa, Bcrerlj Hi! la. Calif. PSYCHOLOGIST RECOMMENDS NARCOTIC Professor of Psychology in University writes. In a recent book for popular instruction ". . . . it has been foun,d that a chem ical substance, namely sodium a m y t a 1, is found useful in medical prac tice when it is desired to bring a too-shut-in patient to a state of greater respon siveness." What I would like to know is, just what is sodium amytol? Is it drug, or habit forming, how does it work on the body, how taken. In what doses? I am twenty-six pears old and have been a chronic Introvert all my life, given to sullen moods, have a tendency to pout and become offended at the least provocation, unable to mix with people, and generally un sociable. I find my temperament to be a positive handicap, both ni business and in aocial life, and while I have made a little progress in overcoming it by an effort of willpower, I still have not achieved the degree of ex pressiveness I would like to have. And since I have recog nized my deficiency, and have conscientiously tried to over come it without noticeable re sults, I am inclined to believe that the condition Is due to a basically physical or bodily con dition, and would respond to the proper antidote. I find that alcohol has the desired effect, but only temporarily, and of course with bad after-effects. So I would like to know whether It Is safe to take sodium amytal and what re sult may be expected. So far as I know I have no organic or physical defects or diseases. (G. W. A.) This young man's description of himself fits my case right down to the use of alcohol thank God and a good mother and the Band of Hope and the Women's Christian Temperance Union and Miss Berner, teacher of hallowed memory. In my youth I never did apply hot and rebellious liquors In my blood. Again I say thank God for the Influence of such women. If I thought the narcotic sug gested by the psychology pro fessor, or a shot of cocaine or News Behind The News By Paul Mallon (Continued Prom Page One) a way develops this summer, the war may last many more years than even the most pessimistic have calculated. e e a OPEN published resentment of London at China's pre mature concession that the stra tegic West Burma port of Aky ab had fallen only reflects again the carelessness of both Chung king and London in accepting Jap radio claims. Akyab had not fallen when the Chinese announced It. and it appears now the Chinese were led Into the false assump tion at least partly by the fact the Japs claimed It. The matter was vital because the loss of Akyab would mean one of the main sources of supplies from India was cut off. Likewise, it is close to Calcutta. Jap bomb ing of that industrial area would be easy. But the Australians made a similar mistake a few days ear lier. They reported London had announced the fall of Port Moresby, omitting mention of the fact that London said o cording to claims by the Tokyo radio. Port Morestiy nan not $u p,., month home to my fallen, and the incidents togoth- , mother, leaving me $15. I car er suggest everybody has bcenij-i-ri a sio.OOO life Insurance listening too intently to the Jap radio that is evrrvoooy except Washington. The Tokyo tech- nique is well known here, es- pecially since last Friday. The Japs broadcast at that time decisive claims as a result of their attacks on Corregidor and Bataan. They said: "U. S. anti-aircraft batteries put up a severe resistance against the Japanese, but Jap- anese bombardments on March 24 reduced four-fifths of the .a i..

D. morphine or booze would en able me to "achieve the degree of expressiveness I would like to have." I'd take it like a shot. But I know better. So does any other physician. Sodium amytal is a powerful sedative producing sleep. It is sometimes used preliminary to surgical or dental anesthesia. It is one of the numerous barbital or barbiturates which have suc ceeded older narcotics or hyp notic sedatives such as veronal and chloral ("knock-out drops") in the past thirty or forty years. If I had to choose a sedative hypnotic for myself I'd prefer chloral to any fancy synthetic drug in the barbital group. The psychology professor's suggestion of sodium-amytal seems deplorably wrong. Even If resort to such narcotic or hyp notic could bring any one to a "state of greater responsiveness" or greater "expressiveness" whatever these peculiar terms may signify it is hardly the province of a psychologist to commend the drug to the pub lic.

Calif. they not capture the defenseless fort? On three previous occasions they have claimed "destruction of Corregldor's batteries", but apparently were never satisfied because they have always come back to destroy them again. The same Tokyo broadcast concluded: "Successful land operations on Bataan encountered only small enemy forces." Only one thing was wrong with that. They left off the "un" before the "successful". They could have left a standing an nouncement for the past few months that the small forces they always encountered on Ba taan were always too big for them. Tokyo broadcasts are not highly regarded here. aaa CHINESE Intelligence is now the best in the Far East. It has eyes and ears In every Jap occupied area.

C Big Union Take On Defense Jobs Camp White Scale Highest in Land Congress Irked By Big Profits Br John W. rally Washington, D. C, April 7. Senator Reed of Kansas esti mates that $30,000,000 has been collected by unions on canton ments, air fields, ordnance plants and similar war construc tion conducted under the super vision of army engineers and the quartermaster department. No one, says Reed, other than union officials knows the exact amount, and they are not tell ing not even to their rank and file membership. Point stressed by the senator is that these Jobs by the govern ment are "closed shop," which means that unless you Join a union having Jurisdiction you cannot work on the cantonment, air field, ordnance plant, etc. Senator Reed says that the right to work without paying tribute is one of the freedomr for which the present World war Is being waged. According to Reed, the closed shop arrangement is made between the contractors and the unions; the contractors agree that they will hire only union men. This gives the unions con trol of the project and gives racketeering officers of certain unions a chance to make a clean up. (Names of union racketeers and their "take" Inserted In the Congressional Record by Reed). There Is no service that the union provides for the Initiation and the heavy monthly dues. Wages are fixed. Hours are fixed. Initiation fee is for the privilege of working for the gov ernment; the dues are for the right to continue working. Fig ures of Senator Reed refer to government projects, not to the shipyards or airplane assembly plants of the northwest where to get a Job it is necessary to Join a union, or If the union does not desire to swell Its member ship, buy a "work permit" card, paying the union collector a fee' for every shift worked. It is estimated that the unions con trolling Boeing plant and Puget sound shipyards will collect in excess of $1,000,000 in dues in 1942; In the Portland are (Van couver, Wash.) the dues will ap proximate $600,000 and prob ably a great deal more, for In the Portland area 50,000 or 60, 000 men will be engaged In the building of ships. a a o THE practice denounced by Senator Reed is in effect at the naval gun relining establishment at Pocatelio, at the cantonments at Medford and Corvallis, at air fields in Washington; the "closed shop" with unions as the employ ment office. Government em ployment officials in several states have been playing the union game by calling upon the union hall for so many plumbers, laborers, etc. Senator Byrd of Virginia and the governor of that state have denounced the federal agency for being a tail to the union. Wage scale set-up for Camp White, Medford, is higher than at any other cantonment under construction. Carpenters draw $1.30 an hour, electricians $1,625. plumbers the same, shovel operators $1.45, and com mon labor 87 '-4c an hour. The common labor is 25c an hour higher than the nearest competi tor, the cantonment at Colorado Springs. For the triangular di vision cantonment at Corvallis i the wage scale is lower than at Medford in every classification. I As ultimately the taxpayer must pay every penny oi tne cost of these cantonments, air fields, ordnance plants, etc.. the Truman senatorial committee Is preparing to investigate the ex- P.Cn,0,f b,ulldin hem- A f Has "folra.' lininne fs in tie. ... v.

JAPANESE DEAD PILED ON BEACH 150 Anzacs Mow Down 1, 500 Nippons on 200-Yard Shoreline Say Survivors. Melbourne, April 7 OP) The bloody story of the Japanese conquest of Rabaul, New Brit ain, in which 150 Australians mowed down some 1,500 Jap anese in a single 200-yard stretch of beach, was told today with the arrival at Australian bases of some 600 survivors of the Australian garrison. Rabaul, former capital of New Britain, fell on January 23 a'ler the Japanese had pitted a land ing force of 20,000 men, formidable naval force and an air fleet of at least 150 bomb ers, dive bombers and fighters against Rabaul's Australian gar rison of 1.400 men and an air force of five planes. Japs Loss 2.000 Rabaul's casualties were 700 killed, wounded or missing while Japanese losses were in excess of 2,000. It was at Ralauna beach that a unit of 150 Australians blazed away at a Japanese force which was caught in barbed wire at the water's edge. Over a 200-yard beach front, it was reported, Japanese dead were stacked six feet high as an estimated 1.500 fell before the Australian fire and the Austra lian cost was only 20 men slight ly wounded. The aerial attack on Rabaul, 800 miles northeast of the Aus Valian mainland, began Janu ary 20 with 60 bombers and 20 fighters. Against them the defenders were able to put Into the air only five Wirraways single engine, general purpose mono planes. The Australian planes accounted for two enemy craft Before they were shot down, leaving Rabaul entirely without air protection. Anti-aircraft fire brought down five other planes. two days later, refugees from the Island said, 110 Japanese aircraft bombed Rabaul heavily blasting Praed Point fortress for a solid hour. They attempted to land on the airport but de molition charges were exploded and two of the invading planes were destroyed. Machinegun fire brought down a third. The actual invasion began at 2:30 o'clock in the morning by a force of Japanese with black ened arms and faces, and clad in shorts and singlets. Thousands Coma That force was repulsed but at dawn thousands of troops came, covered by the guns of warships and 100 dive-bombers and fighters. The Australian garrison caught many landing barges with 50 to 100 men in each before the terrific slaughter of Ralauna beach. By noon the Japanese were swarming everywhere, survivors of the defense said, and further lesistance was seen to be useless. Some Australian troops then withdrew through Okopo to I distant ward Kaoata, a village 30 miles harried by Japanese nlftna At Rahnla nJ icked nd . lnt0 the ungle for WP. turned eut te be , ftru , o week. with mud molquttpeJ malaria, rain and crocodile-in . . tested rivers.
