"The Mills of the Gods"
One of the appalling ironies of the present war is
a fact that is becoming more and more apparent:
The thing we are fighting for is one of the greatest
obstacles to victory, i.e. : democracy.
For that is the aim of this war: to prevent the
destruction of the democratic way of life and all it
stands for.
VET had this country abandoned democracy when
Germany did, or even three years ago, World
War No. 2 undoubtedly would now be over with a
smashing allied victory, if it had ever occurred.
Why?
Because we happen to know that, more than any
other man in public life in this country, perhaps in
the world, Franklin Delano Roosevelt saw this war
coming, detected at an early date the potential dan
gers of Hitler Naziism and Tokyo militarism (partic
ularly the latter), and had he been what some of his
bitterest enemies accused him of being, or trying to
become, a Dictator, the United States would have
been in this war not in December 1941, but at least
five or six years before, and today the horror would
be over. If as before stated, it ever had occurred.
o o a o a
DUT in a democracy with NOT one man, but 135
million in control, such prompt action, such sud
den transformation from a peace-loving to a war
pursuing nation was impossible.
And today, the prompt action, the immediate at
tack, the rapidity of adjustment and concentration
of effort, without delay, red tape or political action
cf any sort, possible to a one-man dictatorship and so
impossible where the people all the people rule,
presents the most serious obstacle that exists, to an
allied victory within the year.
"Too little and too late, that is still the sad refrain
of a democratic world fighting for its life against a
totalitarian world; a peace loving world against a
world that for decades has worshipped and practiced
militarism.
AND yet who among us would wish to change?
. Who would bemoan the price great as it is, and
greater it will become, that must be paid to guarantee
to our children and grandchildren, a free world and
a decent world, a secure world and a just one !
And while we detest militarism and dictatorship
and all their works, "we the
before, adopt the essential
long enough to crash the powers of evil and darkness
and then return to the normal world of good will, fair
dealing, yes and from the MILITARISTIC stand
point inefficiency.
"HE foes of democracy always overlook that little
point.
Because democratic peoples detest war, and are
loath to prepare for one, the militarists assume they
will be either "too proud to fight", or once in a fight,
will soon find the democratic handicaps more than
they bargained for, and buckle under.
Fatal error!
It is because democratic
pletely and love peace so thoroughly that they will
endure so much and sacrifice so much to prevent the
worshippers of might and
world-control.
They do have to pay a
preparedness and for their
ticular way of life, but no
high. And ULTIMATELY
"Though the mills of the Cods grind slowly, yet they
grind exceeding small!"
Oregon s Air Hero
A cheering note comes from Oregon's latest war
hero, Flight Leader Ken Jernstedt, "farm-boy of
Yamhill."
Ever since December 7th,
superiority of the Jap "Zero" plane over the U. S.
product, how it could zoom up like a sky-rocket and
make monkeys, out of the American crates in a sud
den attack or a quick get-away.
a o o
THERE is nothing boastful about Jernstedt, quite
iViA nftntvottr Kilt e slnota nff not i "I ionnort r f
this myth of Japanese air superiority.
The Jap Zeros, he admits, have two advantages, a
speedier climb and greater maneuverability. But as
an all around fighting machine, he maintains, it is
inferior to the U. S. P40 and even to the old IMO-B.
The reason? Superior construction and stability.
The P-40 can really go into a power-dive and take it,
if the Jap Zero tries to follow, the pilot either gives
up or his wings drop off and down he goes.
So the U. S. fliers don't go in and fool around with
the Zeros which would be playing the Jap's game,
with their greater maneuverability, but they go up
and in and then dive, up and in and dive again.
.....
THERE is nothing yellow about the Jap flier,
except his skin, says the Yamhill youth, he has
plenty of "guts". But he isn't TOO smart. He has a
certain routine, and if anything new pops up he is
apt to get the jitters. And when a fighting pilot in
this man's war gets the "jitters" it is just too bad,
bad for him and for his widow.
So Jernstedt concludes:
"Give the American flyers the planes where they need
them and they can take the Jap. I have no doubt of that."
, . . .
THAT we repeat is very cheering news. And with
ten Jap Zeros to his credit officially and unoffi
cially at least a score more, the boy from Yamhill
must know what he is talking about.
The only problem would appear to be to get the
planes where the U. S. lads need them that is where
the Jap planes ARE!

Communications
Cantonment Workar Complains
To the editor:
My work here is completed
and I am leaving, but I must
say this before I go. I am "burnt
up" over the reception and
treatment of the cantonment
workers by the "good" people
of Medford and vicinity.
We came here with a definite
Job to do and we have done
that Job. But the Medford cit
izens looked upon the sudden
influx of workers as a chance
to "clean up" financially and
acted accordingly.
True, most of us receive high
er wages than most local wages
are, but our expenses are
much greater. It is costly to go
from Jib to Job and live away
from our homes as most of us
do.
I shall never forget the cold
March night that I arrived In
Medford and was asked $4 00
for one night's rest in a shabby
room, nor the grocer's haughty
remarks about his prices. I
bought an article and the price
mark on it was obscured: so the
checker started to charge me
twice the established price. I
called him down for it, and the
grocer said It made no differ
ence as the higher price would
be Medford's established price
within a week anyway.
In my future travels, any
statements I make about your
city and people will be contrary
to those made by your local
local chamber of commerce.

Aloes or the resin extracted
from it, aloin, requires eight to
ten hours to produce its effect

most 24 to 3 hours to produce
its effect antispasmodic, anti

the belladonna will prevent
griping by the aloes. But by
the time the aloes begins to

U-Boat Campaign
Prove Effective
Douglas County
Has Only Nickel
Wage Control
To Keep Solons
By John W. Kelly
Washington, D. C, July 23.
Until the navy department
curbs, if it does not destroy, the
submarine menace in the north
Pacific, the Atlantic and the
gulf seaboards the shipyards of
Puget sound and Columbia
river, despite their record
breaking speed, cannot over
come the loss of merchant ves
sels sent to the bottom. The
transportation problem Is delay
ing a second front in Europe;
is delaying a task force for
Egypt; is holding up supplies
everywhere. More than 400
merchant ships have been de
stroyed in the past seven months
on the Atlantic and Pacific, and
the navy, so far as known, has
not captured more than one or
two scalps.
German submarines have been
within 500 yards of land in
Florida and Long island (they
disembarked the saboteurs);
they have sunk ships near the
mouth of the Mississippi and in
the entrance of the St. Law
rence. They have sunk ves
sels from Oregon; have tor
pedoed ships from Washington
and crippled and sunk British
Columbia flag ships. Raw ma
terial coming to the United
States has been sent to the bot
tom: food and war material des
tined for the United Nations
have gone to Davy Jones' locker.
The losses in money value in
ships and cargo, not to mention
human lives has, been enorm
ous. To date the navy has been un
able to cope successfully with
the submarines, notwithstand
ing the assurances of Secretary
of Navy Frank Knox that they
would soon have the U-boats
disposed of. The secretary has
been in error. Planes, blimps,
surface craft are being used
with what appears to be indif
ferent success. The World war
No. 2 submarine Is a different
affair from those used in the
first World war. Today they
range from the two-man subs
of the Japanese to undersea
craft up to 400 feet in length.
The large boats have a cruising
radius of more than 6.000 miles;
some can hide on the bottom
300 feet below the surface. The
"Y" guns of the sub-chasers are
only occasionally effective. The
Japs have submarines that carry
an airplane which is catapulted
from the deck. Japanese and
German submarines have been
disposed of without official an
nouncement, as might be in
Alaskan waters or in the At
lantic, for reasons best known
to the high command; but the
merchant ships are still de
stroyed. ...
THE proposed second front
for which American troops are
now being assembled and
trained in England and northern
Ireland depends on transporta
tion for men and supplies. Un
til the submarines are elimin
ated the creation of a second
front in France will be Inde
finitely delayed.

CONGRESSMEN who had
hoped to go home and campaign
by the end of this month are
now prepared to settle down for
a few weeks longer to thresh
out an over-all wage control,
proposed by President Roose
velt, to prevent inflation. Con
trol of wages has been agreed
by many as necessary to price
control regulation, but the idea
has been resisted stoutly by
labor organizations, and some
unions have been demanding
more money (little steel work
ers insisted on $1 a day in
crease.) Whatever wage policy
is adopted by congress will be
reflected in the war and other
industries of the northwest
shipyards and aircraft factories
especially. It is the opinion of
many in congress that the in
crease granted little steel of 44
cents a day will be followed by
a general Increase which will
spread to all industries. Before
congress acts finally on wage
control a long, bitter contest
can be expected, with the union
lobby opposing every proposal
to keep wages at a given point.
...
THERE is prospect of two, at
least, "critical labor areas" be
ing designated by Paul McNutt,
chairman of war manpower
commission, in the Pacific north
west. When an area is so de
signated employers will be noti
fied that they can hire workers
only through the U. S. employ
ment service or under a co
operative hiring plan. An area
becomes "critical" when there
is a scarcity of labor and one
employer tries to hire away a
worker from another employer
who has a war contract.
W'hat McNutt may eventually
work out, as has been proposed,
is a series of labor battalions
which will be mobile and can
be shifted from one section to
another a sort of labor shock
