Willkie's Strange Behavior
Wendell Willkle, via the current "Look" maga
zine, comes out definitely for the Republican nom
ination, with but one "if.
For he will only consider the nomination 'IF"
"The Republican party intends to drive heart and soul
for liberal objectives."
'Xiberal objectives!"
That has a familiar sound. Unless we are greatly
mistaken it has been a favorite phrase with various
and sundry New Dealers
years.
CO what? Well, it will be about as popular with
the GOP rank and file as a spray bouquet of
rag-weed to a hay-fever victim.
And neither Mr. Willkie nor anyone else can se
cure the Republican presidential nomination without
the GOP rank and file.
WE don't know why it is the ex-presidential can
didate of the GOP insists upon leading, day in,
day, out, with his chin.
But that has been his
three years ago. He seems DETERMINED to accen
tuate his weaknesses as a Republican candidate, and
neglect his sources of strength and at the same time
strive to stage a GOP "come back."
Mr. Willkie's weaknesses center around his many
years of membership in the Democratic party, and
similar years of opposition to the Republican party.
His strength lies in his high grade ability as a
level-headed lawyer, an experienced big business
administrator, a man of force, courage, experience
and common sense.
TN other words, Mr. Willkie possesses to an excep-
tional degree the clear-headed, practical business
like .qualities President Roosevelt so conspicuously
lacks, qualities which would admidably fit him for a
post-war period of national and international recon
struction. .
But instead of stressing these facts in a critical
survey of the New Deal and FDR's three administra
tions, W. W. insists upon stressing the reactionary
possibilities of the party he wishes to represent, and
the necessity of its regeneration. 1
A surer way to destroy his chance of being the RE
PUBLICAN nominee a second time could scarcely
be imagined and in view of Wendell Willkie's ex
perience and shrewdness it is hard to understand.
What Price Italy?
It will be interesting to
records the course of Italy
a moral standpoint.
Of course in the allied

unmercifully condemned.
For by her surrender
things the allies want above
and peace.
But viewing Italy's course, not from a partisan
but from an objective angle, with a certain ethical
emphasis, and where does "Sunny Italy" get off?

IT seems to this department rather lower in the scale
of human obliquity than' any nation in modern
history.
The attack on France
back, it was a stab in the
striken nation. To the low
greed was added treachery and cowardice.
VET at the time no Italian voice was raised against
it. The two officials of Italy who negotiated the
downfall of Mussolini and the surrender of Italy, Gen
eral Badoglio and King
supported and approved it
people did not, they were very silent about it
This "imperial duo" continued that support as
long as they could ride along on the wave of German
might cheering Axis victories, without contributing
anything or sacrificing anything themselves. But the
moment the tide turned and their hard-pressed ally
approached the doom of France, back they went,
again joining the victors and again hoping to get in
at the kill, and enjoy a jackal's feast or what might
be left of it
ITALY is now helping a good cause, where she for
1 merly helped an evil one. There is that to her
credit
But were the allies as hard-pressed today as they
were three years ago, there is slight doubt Italy would

ship. And unless this department is far off the beam
the moral indictment of Italy in this direction and in
this war, by impartial history, will be one of the most
severe and scathing in the record of the so-called hu
man family.
ITALY, as we see it, has just one chance to redeem
herself.
If she now goes "all out" against Germany, shows
a willingness to fight and die for a just and righteous
cause as she refused to do for an evil one, then it may
properly be claimed in extenuation that her heart

Washington Letter
Analysis and Comment
by
HARRIS ELLSWORTH
Congressman, Fourth Oregon District
Washington, D. C-, Sept. 18
(Special Correspondence) When
congress reconvened Tuesday,
after two months' recess, the
session opened as usual at twelve
noon, and since there was noth
ing ready to be considered on
the floor, the house adjourned
until Friday noon. Principal
business of the Friday afternoon
session was to hear the report
of the president on the progress
of the war, and It was an encour
aging report.
Ways and means committee of
the house has been holding open
hearings on the subject of the
renegotiation of war contracts.
I have attended some of these
hearings. There seems to be over-
whelming evidence that the ap
plication of the renegotiation
law has been entirely too broad
As now interpreted, manufactur
ers, and even retailers of ordi
nary civilian goods, that are gov
erned by celling prices, and In
many Instances- manufacturers
of products that are purchased
by the government on bids be
low celling prices, are being put
through the renegotiation proc
ess. Testimony given before the
ways and means committee tends
to Indicate that the money re
captured by the government
from such concerns Is Insignifi
cant In amount, but the trouble
and expense the renegotiation
process causes the business con
cerns Is serious.
The Fulbrlght resolution Is a
very brief, one-sentence piece of
legislation, offered In the form
of a house concurrent resolution.
that reads as follows: "Resolved,
That the congress hereby express
itself as favoring the creation
of appropriate International ma-1
chlnery with power adequate to
prevent future aggression and :
to maintain law, order and last
ing peace, and as favoring par-1
tlclpatlon by the United State :
therein." The political dynamite
In this resolution Is simply thnt
a great .many members of the
house are reluctant to be put
on record with a vote on that
specific statement. The resolu
tion was reported favorably by
the foreign affairs committee,
and In spite of "behind-the-scenes"
objections. I am inclined
to believe the resolution will be
voted upon this coming weak.
OREGON, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1943
Brady. M. D.
MATURE A CHANCE
the druggist should dispense
when anyone asks for iodin (it is
only about one-third the strength
of the Tincture, of Iodine which
should be reserved for the ex
clusive use of physicians and
surgeons), has nothing to do with
the question of physic slavery.
I am reminded of it here be
cause the notions of the "em
inent specialists" about the "dan
ger" Involved In getting the' Io
dine required to maintain health
are as fanciful and unfounded
as the everyday belief of that
part of the public that the bow
els limply will not function un
less "regulated-" "aided" or
"prodded" more or less frequent
ly or habitually by laxatives or
mechanical devices. And the
funny part of it la that when an
occasional physic addict listens
to reason and gets rid of his
morbid fancies he decides his
case is remarkable.
QUESTIONS A ANSWERS
Vicious Practice
Do doctors In any circumstances
approve giving infants or young cnu
dren a small amount of liquor lor
quieting purposes? (C. P.)
Answer. No. That Is a vicious prac
tice. Gingivitis Is Not Pyorrhea
I would appreciate any Informa
tion or advice you can give me on
what the dentists call gingivitis or
pyorrbes. I have had It for a year
or more now, and the dentists do
not seem to think there la anything
to be done about it. (Q. 8.)
Answer Send stamped envelope
bearing your address and . ask for
pamphlet "All That Gingivitis Is Not
Pyorrhea." If you would like also the
No. 1 Little Lessons In the ways of
Health booklet. "Save Tour Teeth,"
Inclose 3ft cents sddltlonal do not
send clipping, because that causes
confusion.
Mother Knows Best
I feel that articles like the one In
which you applauded a pregnant
woman for doing alt the things Bhe
might otherwise do cuch as paint
ing, working In garden and the llko,
may do much harm. We lost our
first for the very reason that I knew
no better. We are now expecting a
baby In another month. This time.

activity. (Mrs. c. F. M.)

A few days ago, Chester
Bowles, general manager of the
Office of Price Administration,
Issued a statement to the effect
that, by subsidizing seven com
modities, namely apples, oranges,
onions, potatoes, lard, vegetable
oils and peanut butter, the cost
of living could be reduced by
2.3 and the cost of subsidies
would amount to only $100,000,

mediately pointed out that the
price rollback, suggested by
Bowles, would cost $325,000,000
at least, and that, If even that
amount of money Is expended
In subsidies on those seven com
modities, it would still repre
sent nowhere near a reduction
of 2.3 in the cost of living. The
reduction would, In fact, be less

revealed that It would require

can be done with $100,000,000.

stroy all the national sovereign
ty ot all nations.

of an international police force
to run Russia must make Stalin
laugh.
a a
IN A controvertible fact No. 2
is that Hatch and others who
believe in such a force actually
think they are continuing the
alliance which Is winning this
war. The war is being won In an
entirely different way. We have
our army and navy, the British
have theirs, Russia hers.
We and the British have
worked pretty -close, but we do
not even yet know the simplest
facts of the Russian army
strength or plans. The sover
eignty of each ally has been pre
served so far In the winning of
this war. Of cooperation there
has been plenty, but each na
tion has carefully retained its
own integrity.
a a a
F SENATOR HATCH and the
' others really want to continue
the war status quo Into the post
war world, there will be no in
ternational army and no super
state. (Stalin- has not even been
in conference with us yet)
We are winning this war,
from the American standpoint
because we were able to put a
superior army . and superior
equipment into the field on
time. We nearly were too late.
If Senator Hatch and the oth
ers In that school want to carry
the victory over Into the peace,
they will primarily Insist that
we maintain our superior army,
air force, navy and keep our
production lines ready and open,
so we will never be caught flat
footed in another Pearl Harbor.
PACT NO. 3 is their assump
tion that an International ar
my or super-state would elim
inate differences between na
tions'. Well, we had relatively
the existing allied armed situa
tion or better at the time Man
chukuo was Invaded by the Japs.
China outrageously, attacked and
miopia conquered and we
never did anything about it.
we did nothing because, of
differences of interests amons
tne anti-aggressor forces. Our
people did not want to do any
thing about these things.
Any attempt to have this
country go to war to protect
inese remote peoples was con
sidered preposterous at the time
ll there had .been an interna
tional army the same differences
would have prevailed and pre
vented action.
Hatch's own senate cannot Bet
together within itself for specific
international peace action or
with the house, or either of them
with the president.
If you cannot get the Demo
crats and Republicans, or even
tne Democrats within them
selves, to agree on a course of
peace action, how Is the world
super-state, representing far
greater differences and compet
itive interests existing between
nations like Russia and the de
mocracies, ever going to agree
on war action?
The idea; therefore, is likely
to evaporate for lack of sub
stance. Communications

hone" that Stalin will trail
along with us. But why enter
tain that hope? Stalin is an
avowed atheist, recognized as a
hater of our religion, our ideals,
and our institutions. He re
ceives our vast lend-lease aid
without gratitude and calls it a
'mere trickle". After Hitlers
collapse Stalin might continue
neutral, letting England, Amer
ica and China crush Russia's in
veterate foe, Japan. He may
even ignore the peace-table and
settle with each nation in 'his
own way. Just who would say
to him "You can t do that to
us"?
Planning a world government
to supervise, police, (and spy on)
all nations, to prevent rearming
and aggression. Is interesting
desk work now. But trying to
fasten it on America, England,
Russia, China, Spain, Turkey,
etc., will not be on the peace-
taoie agenda. Through all his
tory nations have fought for in
dependence. We still like it
Russia will surely maintain hers.
Let us maintain ours.
The other important item Ig
nored is God. If Roosevelt and
Churchill in their conferences
ever discussed God as a factor
in world affairs, it was not re
ported. In post-war nlannlns
God sometimes receives "honor
able mention" but seems never
consulted on important matters
The planners would take the
human race, just as it is, and
transform it, while you wait,
from perpetual war to perpetual
peace. But the average man is
a bad actor, glorying in war un
til ne gets a "new heart and a
new spirit"; and there will be
no world peace until he does.
Post-war planners should rec
ognize the missionary as hold
ing the only key to permanent
world peace. Peace Is a matter
of the heart. It can become uni
versal only when the spirit of
wnnsi controls all men. Then
war will automatically cease.
The planners overlook six very
important words of Christ, viz,
