What doei It profit speed'
Idiot patriot to have an auto
horn that plays the "Star Span
gled Banner", red V on the
windshield and doors for Vic
tory, and flags fluttering from
tha radiator, if every time he
turns a corner he rips off four
bits worth of rubber.
There are signs the people
will be charmingly beseeched
not to relax the war effort and
elect Republicans to congress or
the legislature in November.
This war has produced no
better fighting men than the
Yugoslavs, currently fighting
Italy, Bulgaria, and Germany.
From their hills and rocks they
are battling on three fronts and
looking for a fourth, though ill
equipped. They shoot the pro
clamations of Hitler full of
holes, like a hunter . does a far
mer's trespass signs, and when
ever high Nazi official shows
his head they shoot it off. Inci
dentally, they issue a few ulti
matums themselves. There is no
way under the lend-lease act to
loan some of their fighting spirit
to the largest of their European
allies.
CONFESSION
(Kansas City Times)
"Our wife taught a country
school and earned $13 a
.month before she married us,
and while she doesn't feel
that the really lost anything
by marrying, we can tell that
when she thinks of the $15
and then thinks of us, she fig
ures she Just about broke
even,"
The esteemed Salem Capital
Journal editorially wonders why
a professional pacifist of Oregon,
who fathered an initiative bill
to prevent compulsory military
training at the UoiO, has been
sworn into the army as a second
lieutenant, and assigned to the
perils of pecking a typewriter in
Washington, D. C. He is a bright
young man in the field of poll
tics. Why he was named only a
second lieutenant, instead of a
lieutenan t-gencral, is what
makes the majority wonder.
The Older Girls are still bat
tling in their Victory gardens,
all of which have a weed and
defeatist complex.
"Meanwhile, somebody else
has started an epidemic of rub
ber mat thievery around town.
This is hardly the proper way to
express a patriotic urge."
(Klamath Falls Herald & Mews)
Hardly, and within the "pur
view of the law", aj the lawyers
say.
The FBI. has rounded up 158
Nazi aliens, at large in the land,
willing and waiting to indulge
in any hcllraising Berlin orders.

(Time Magasino)
"Honest orators (addressing
the people and quoting John
Paul "We have not yet begun
to fight") will have to tell
them that the U. 8. with Egypt
tottering, Russia fighting in des
peration, China already three
quarters gone, and American
ships sinking everywhere is
now making a very different
kind of answer, saying in effect:
"We have not yet begun to fight
we want to wait until after
the elections."
The Spanish word "gran
ada." meaning "pomeeranate,"
is the root of "grenade" because
the explosive resembles the
fruit.
A Dangerous Maneuver
There appears to be no doubt of it.
The Democratic National Committee, worried over
the forthcoming congressional elections, is persistent
ly sowing the poison that a vote for a Republican
means a vote against the war and in favor of the
Axis powers.
In the latest bulletin from national headquarters,
for example, it is claimed both Germany and Japan
are filling the short-wave air with appeals to defeat
Democratic congressional candidates, repudiate
President Roosevelt, and thus aid the totalitarian
New. Deal.
DOTH Berlin and Tokyo have for some time attack
ed President Roosevelt, the main theme being
"Franklin Delano Roosevelt promised you peace and
he brought you war." But if there have been any
direct appeals to return a Republican congress, we
have not heard them.
We don't blame the Democratic committee for
making the most of this anti-Roosevelt propaganda
from enemy sources, we can imagine nothing that
would increase the devotion to Roosevelt and his
administration, more quickly or effectively, or render
the return of an overwhelming Democratic congress
more certain: '
DUT we do blame the committee for continuously
and persistently creating the impression, through
this widespread propaganda, that the Republican
party at heart, is less committed to this war and vic
tory, than the Democratic
ous and subtle way, is working nana ana glove witn
the unregenerate G.O.P. isolationists on one hand,
and the Axis powers on the other.
No doubt this is, to a certain extent, good politics.
And to a wily political veteran like Charles Michel
son, an inevitable procedure to adopt.
But. as before stated in this department, it can be
overdone. And if overdone
'OR once let the people of the country suspect that
the Roosevelt administration is DELIBERATELY

It was the same thing when the war started.
Look up the record if you have forgotten. Britain's
leading military expert declared World War No. 1
completely discredited the offensive, and the winning
strategy in No. 2 would be bleeding the attackers
white by a series of "Verdun defenses." Moreover no
expert denied for a moment, that Fiance had the
best army in Europe and the Maginot line was im
pregnable. France fell like a ton of bricks, the British barely
escaped complete disaster at Dunkirk, whereupon
the same experts pontificated that England could not
possibly be saved.
AGAIN look up the record, particularly the Wash
ington. D. C, exports if you doubt this!
One might think by the laws of chance the experts
might be right once. But to date they haven't been.
In fact, judging the future by the past the most
cheering news imaginable, at the present time, would
be for the experts to predict the DEFEAT of Russia
before winter comes.
That would make a GERMAN defeat practically
certain!

he did not Inhale ....

farm production, how much It
Is likely to cost, and the diffi
culties to be encountered.
Agriculture Secretary Wlck
ard signed in April an agree
ment with the Peruvian govern
ment whereby two-thirds of Its
cotton crop (200.000 bales) will
be bought by this government
and put In storage. This govern
ment is to continue to take the
same amount each year here
after, at the annual cost of about
$10,000,000, the crop to be
stored In Peru.
It was done as a good neighbor
gesture, but the government has
used the action to try out an
international crop curtailment
Idea.
We promised to pay the Peru
vians a one-and-a-half per cent
Increase In price for every one
per cent their acreage was cur
tailed. The scheme also worked
the other way, proposing to cut
the price an equal amount for
every similar increase in acre
age. FO one outside the agriculture
41 department paid much at
tention to the matter until re
cently, when the American cot
ton market began worrying
about that surplus.
Senator Bankhead and others
of the cotton bloc then extract
ed a promise from Mr. Wallace
that the crop would not be
brought into the United States
unless our own production was
unable to satisfy war require
ments. The post-war difficulty
of foreign agriculture produc
tion coming Into competition
with our own was thus encount
ered at the outset.
As long as cotton senators
exist, that cotton apparently will
have to be sold by this govern
ment to some foreign consum
ers In some way whereby it will
not compete with American cot
ton. That will be difficult, if
not Impossible.
The agriculturists here, how
ever, have not let that prospect
dismay them.

system is a Spanish hacienda ap

THE Hitler break-through of
the Russian lines caused no
great alarm here, even after he
was able to develop It. With
such fire power as the Germans
possess the ability to mass In
superable offensive weapons at
a striking point beyond preced
ent in all history Hitler could
be expected to break through at
any time on such a long front.
But as such breaks develop,
this issue levels Itself down to
two main considerations, weap
ons and fighting spirit, both
about equally Important. The
Russians are short on weapons
but even longer than the Ger
mans on fighting spirit.
Consequently, the eyes of
Washington have been focused

From Washington, D. C
Plywood Seen
Aluminum Sub
Nelson Oppose
Wheat Alcohol
Copper Mining
Development Lg
By Jotui W. Ketty
Washington, D. C, July 13
Destruction of cargo carriers
loaded with bauxite, which
would be transformed ' into
aluminum in the northwest, Is
the fundamental reason why
army air force, procurement div
ision of WPB, the forest pro
ducts laboratory at Madison,
Wis., and the veneer and ply
wood people have been in con
stant huddles. There must be
steps taken to husband all the
aluminum possible for bombers
and interceptors and some sub
stitute must be found for alum
inum in non-combat planes. The
answer is, of course, ply ply
wood, but what kind or type and
where it can be procured has
been the center of debate.
Eventually, it is believed, the
government will have to come
to the Douglas fir region, where
peeler logs have "made" the In
dustry of superimposing one
sheet of wood upon another.
On details there is yet no
agreement, but between the
lend-lease officials and repre
sentatives of the army air force
there is an objective of 35.000.
000 square feet of plywood a
month. If that does not sound
important, it is 420.000,000
square feet a year. For this
material the federal govern
ment is willing to pay a good
price; there will be no hag
gling. The order will be so large
that it will be broken up and
distribute! to practically all
plywood plants in position to
accept some of the business.
ONE army officer favored
mahogany upon mahogany, but
abandoned this idea when he
was convinced there is no source
of mahogany left, due to the ac
tivity of enemy submarines.
British representatives, speaking
for the lend-lease, favor birch
upon maple (the favorite com
bination for plywood In British
Columbia); west coast operators
advocate Douglas fir. Spruce has
been frozen; cannot be used for
plywood as suitable stock . is
needed for trusses.
With the submarine menace
to the bauxite supply, the pro
gram calls for plywood for troop
transport planes, cargo carry
ing planes, gliders, trainers and
possibly later but not now, a few
experimental fighter planes.
If Donald Nelson has his way
no farmer cooperatives in the
inland empire can go into the
business of manufacturing alco
hol from surplus wheat. Theor
etically, he explains, the distill
eries might be a good thing but
he is opposed to building any
more distilleries for the produc
tion of alcohol (from which
synthetic rubber Is produced),
because he hasn't the copper to
spare for the stills. Copper. Nel
son informed the senate com
mittee, is just about the rarest
metal In the United States.
In addition to taking care of
the war needs for copper in this
country, said the top man of war
production board, we must also
provide all the copper require
ments of the British, the Rus
sians, the Chinese all of the
United Nations. This is the job
that falls on the shoulders of
American economy. The domes
tic shortage is caused by de
mands made upon us by the
allies. This argument made no
hit with several of the senators
on the subcommittee, who asked
one another when Nelson had
departed, whether anyone was
looking after the interests of
America. One of the senators a
few night before was talking
to King Peter and inquired what
his country was doing ,to which
Peter answered, "We are con
serving our resources."
GREAT as is the need for
copper, the federal government
is doing nothing to develop de
posits in Washington, Oregon
and Idaho. There are rich de
posits in Hell's canyon of Snake
river and in many other dis
tricts, but these are being ne-
06&

I I i
glected while WBP is decrying
the shortage, and In spite of
insistence during the past two
years of northwest senators that
these properties be exploited
and new supplies of copper be
provided, nothing hat been done.
Nor is there any prospect of the
government acting through any
of it war agencies.
APPARENTLY Portland has
won its fight against Puget
sound, for announcement is
made that 20 ships will visit the
Columbia river in July to load
freight for Russia, with assur
ance that all freight from the
west coast for Siberia will hence
forth move through the river.
The government was buying
flour at Astoria and Portland
and in the interior and having it
shipped to Seattle where It was
loaded on Russian vessels for
Siberia until this new order
was issued.
Decision to take cargoes In
the Columbia river was brought
about through conversations
with the Russian government,
for the Russians had the "say"
as to where they wished to take
on freight.
