Ye Smudge Pot
By Arthur Parry
Nobody takes the war as seri
ously as children, of grade
school age, even though they
can't wrap their tongues around
Russian names any better than
their folks. They use good Judg
ment, and don't even try. The
boys all want to operate a ma
chine gun in the tail cf a Flying
Fortress over Tokyo. The girls
would like to see the kid next
door spanked at sunrise, and
pour arnica on the sprained
ankle of a handsome officer, so
he can take them to the dance,
after the battle Is over. They
have one, and one only path to
peace. Kill Hitler. They have
something there.
Washington, D. C, will ex
periment with the 'stand-up, sit
down' plan on street cars In an
effort to solve the transporta
tion problem. The idea has pos
sibilities. A 'stay-awake, go-to-cleep'
scheme is reported hatch
ing. The executive committee of
the State Federation of Labor
has indorsed Lew Wallace, the
Democratic nominee for gover
nor, while lauding Earl Snell,
the Republican choice. Both
aspirants were praised, and dif
ficulty admitted in choosing
between them. It is a noble,
fence straddling stand, and the
general public knows which
candidate is getting the official
wink.

Hail To Camp White!
"Commodiously, even handsomely built"
That is the desription of the military establishment
on the Agate desert north of Medford. But, strange
as it seems, this referred not to Camp White, the great
cantonment which now spreads from the slopes of
Table Rock to the hills of Antelope. It was, instead,
a statement made nearly a century ago describing old
Fort Lane, an army post built in 1853 and named after
Oregon's first territorial governor and famous Indian
fighter, General Joseph Lane.
Walling's "History of Southern Oregon" told of
the picturesque old fort in glowing terms. It was con
structed of logs, as was the custom of the times, and
boasted a parade grounds, barracks, officers' homes
and an army hospital. Here were garrisoned the
hardy U. S. Army troopers during the turbulent
18508.
TODAY the site of Fort Lane is but a small corner
of the expansive Camp White reservation. On the
western border of the camp, at the foot of Table
Rock, is the historic spot where General Joseph Lane
and Indian .Tosenh sicmed a treatv of Deace on Sep
tember 10, 1855 the end
gle between the early settlers and the Kogue Kiver
Indians. On the muster role of that campaign appear
the names of Terry's Crescent City Guards, Rhoad's
Humbug Creek Volunteers and Goodall's Yreka Volunteers.
AND so, Southern Oregon people,' prideful of the
early history of this western frontier, have added
interest in the new army camp on the Agate desert.
They are proud of the role of old Fort Lane in carv
ing an empire here. They are equally proud of the
great contonment of today so ably administered by
Colonel Owen Meredith, for here the "butcher, the
baker, the candlestick maker," will be moulded into
hard and war-wise fighting men who will carry the
banner of free men on distant battlefields so that jus
tice and humanity may be preseryed.
CAMP WHITE, too, is "commodiously, even hand
mmelv Viiiilf" aiwirrlrno tn tnriav's standards.
Here there is every provision for the training of men
in the technique of present day military operations.
Military men who know say that Camp White's ter
rain is ideal for most tactical operations: that the cli
mate here is ideally suited to the job of conditioning
men for the rigors of battle. The camp, a veritable city
of barracks, shops, warehouses, hospitals, chapels and
amusement centers, was built in record time. It is
recognized as one of the nation's finest cantonments.
SOUTHERN OREGON people were pleased, too,
urVion th?a onwimndiniia and Viandsnmp rnmn was
named in honor of Oregon's illustrious citizen, the
late Major General George A. White, for "the Gen
eral" had many staunch friends in this section of the
state.
The choice of his name
General White was a veteran of the Spanish-Ameri
can War, the expedition
Villa, and the first World War. He had a distinguish
ed career in civilian life . too, as a journalist and
author. His startling and prophetic saga of invasion,
"Attack on America", written under his pen name of
"Ared White", shocked some Americans into a grim
realization that this nation was even then in danger.
To history, General White will be remembered .as
one of the founders of the American Legion ; to those
who knew him best he will be remembered for his
friendly smile, his kindly consideration of men under
his command, and his intense loyalty to friends.
IT IS quite natural that
Camp White tomorrow
here in Jackson County.
It is historic ground upon which the camp was built
and we are proud of that history; we have pride in
the great cantonment itself, and of the men who will
live and train there; we recall the achievements and
remember the man whose name is so appropriately
honored.

First Nurses' Aides Given

In an impressive service at St. Mark's Episcopal Guild hall,
Thursday evening, the first class of Red Cross Volunteer
Nurses' Aide Corps of six members, received caps and certifi
cates of graduation into active service as assistants to the
nurses and hospitals of the community.
The Nurses Aides presented i
an attractive and colorful effect
in their crisp blue and white
uniforms. Seated at the rear of
the platform were Mrs. A. S. V.
Carpenter, chairman of the Red
Cross Volunteer Services and
Mrs. C. W. Ashpole, with Seth
Bullis, president of the Red
Cross chapter.
Mr. Bullis in his opening re
marks praised the class highly
for their perseverance as a pio
neer class, and their high spirit
of cooperation and unselfish of

aides.
These women have answered
the question many west coast

Rail Traffic
Takes Big Jump
Chrome Miners
Are Discouraged
Stabilization
Lumber Need
By Joha W. Ksllr ,
Washington, D. C, Sept. 14
While J. B. Eastman, director
of the office of defense trans
portation, Is appealing for a
great let-down in unnecessary
travel. It Is noted that the first
five months of this year record
ed unprecedented rail traffic
business. This five-months per
iod saw 3,200,000,000 passenger
travel miles by rail as against
2,186,000,000 for the same five
months last year, an Increase of
nearly SO per cent.
A portion of this travel has
been due to very heavy military
movements. Another element is
the large demands for business
travel as an incident to war in
dustry, especially aggravated by
the fact that everybody had to
come to the national capital to
secure contracts and adjust dif
ferences. It is also observed that
cince private automobile travel
is falling fast (District of Colum
bia moter vehicles In service
have decreased 27 per cent since
war started, it is estimated)
recreation travel has been shift
ed heavily to rail. Taken as a
whole, the situation is reviving
the issue as to whether compul
sory restriction may not become
necessary.
Long vacation trips are clear
ly declining. Encouragement is
offered for short week-end
jaunts, on the theory that human
beings working under war stress
have a little break at a reason
able intervals. This type of
travel, whether by rail or bus,
is likely to grow, and will not
be attacked. .
Railway efficiency In handling
vast increases of traffic is ad
mitted on all hands, but of this
further success will hang largely
upon voluntary cooperation of
the public. To this end the
public will be urged over and
over again to desist from unne
cessary rail and bus travel.
DOES the war production
board need more domestic
chrome? According to the latest
official advices, no.
Is the government In need of
cargo space In ships returning
from foreign voyages? Apparent
ly it is not.
These conclusions spring from
a statemen just made to Senator
McNary by the chrome division
of WPB. Miners of chrome had
complained to the senator, that
they were being discouraged in
larger production or In formu
lating plans for continued pro
duction after April of next year.
They were under the impression
that chrome was not only a
critical metal but had been re
garded as one of the dangerous
ly scarce commodities. Their
views also were to the effect
that Importation of critical ma
terial from foreign sources had
been made either impossible or
exceedingly difficult by sub
marines. The senator asked Donald M.
Nelson the following questions:
First. Is the supply of chrome
for steel alloys and other uses
adequate? Second, if there Is
need for domestic chrome,
would not WPB agents en
courage the miners for larger
and sustained production? Third,
if the federal purchasing agency,
I. e. Metals Reserve Co., will not
buy chromite of grades lower
than 33 to 40 per cent, should
not the miner be permitted to
sell these lower grades to private
Industry without restrictions and
delays?
In reply, the chrome division
of WPB states that the supply
of chrome is now exceeding the
rate of consumption, resulting in
a steadily growing stockpile
condition. Further, the chrome
division says that Imports con
tinue to be an important factor,
because ships sent to different
parts of the world with troops,
arms and supplies must have re
turn cargo. Thus the recently
fostered chrome production pro
gram seems to be losing force.
This will hit the northwest
rather hard. Southwestern Ore-
i gon is generally recognized as
! having the largest potential in
i ihe nation in high grade hard
rock chromite. The John Day
valley is rated as having per-
, haps the largest area of lower
I grade chromite to be found In
I the country. The coast black
sands carry heavy chromite

line as WPB -transportation co
ordinator Eastman's unpublished
and suppressed report on the
same problem.
Mr. Eastman Is czar over
everything on wheels In ' this
country now, including the
automobile, although no one
seems to know It, particularly
the office of price administra
tion. His report was lost In the
shuffle of inter-bureau confer
ences, as well as his authority
over motor cars.
The OPA just stepped In and
took over. Primarily, Eastman
wanted to give gas for essential
needs, and he wanted a general
overall control plan, such as
Baruch has suggested.
The Baruch report thus seem
ed to polnt an unobserved finger
in the general 'direction of Mr.
Eastman, who already has the
authority (he got it by execu
tive order weeks ago), as well
as the proper theories, (the
Baruch committee had access
to his unpublished report), to
direct policy-making on auto
use.
Of course, the rubber "czar"
Baruch suggested would be a

TTHEY are saying national gas
rationing will be put Into
effect in a few weeks, but they
mean a few months. Not only
the printing of rationing cards
will hold them back. They will
need a new and different sys
tem than that in effect In the
east, and it will have to be
worked out carefully.
Basically, the eastern system
gives four gallons a week to
everyone who has a car, whether
or not he has any real use for
either the gas or the car. This Is
a passable arrangement in the
east, where distances are short,
but transportation good. It
leaves enough gas for essential
business needs.
Out in the great open spaces,
the problem is different. Four
gallons is not enough for any
one who must go any place, and
too much for the small town
residents who live within a few
blocks of everything.
Need should be the only yard
stick. A new system will have
to be instituted for fairer dis
tribution.
A good guess Is that this may
