The Mot cow conference opine the once willing puppet of the Nazis hould have more democracy, though what they will do with it, once they get it, is question. Nevertheless, the Italians like the sample served them by the invading Allies. There has been great change of heart, and see ing of the light, since the days when n Duce from balcony cast slurs upon the American form of government, while the massed masses, whooped and bowled approval. The King, then gravely concerned about saving of the Imperial bide, em braced Fascism, with the zeal of a colored gentleman at a camp meeting, and, more gusto than his people now bug democracy. His Highness has been advised he will have to -make himself scarce around the royal palace. The Allies will take no chances on his becoming another piece of putty in the hands of another Mussolini, should one arise. But. Marshal Pletro Badogllo, of Ethiopia and Greece campaigns fame, now Premier, really lets loose all holds, and goes to town. He proclaims: "I will not resign as premier until every German has been chased from Italy. Then I will resign, and chase the Germans some more." He will resign, at allied request. The matter of chasing Germans is his own business, at hi own risks. : "Somebody took a tide of bacon oft Tobe Llngston last Thursday." (Willow Creek Jot tings.)

For Hanley's victory would mean not only a Re publican victory in the all-important New York state; it would mean a Governor Dewey victory, and allow the Governor to resign, run for President next year, and leave the state house safely in Republican hands. Hanley won going awayl TTHE Republicans won in practically every other state and city contest, and may even win out eventually in the important border state of Kentucky for Governor although at the present writing the Democratic candidate is leading by a nose.

Discussing here recently the question "Why Should a Girl Wear a Girdle," I promised to describe a tapering off plan for misguided girls who have al ready cultivated the habit of wearing such harness, as well as for women who have suffered corset complaint for years. In every instance the degree of injury depends of course on how much the girl or woman has de pended on the artificial support and how little she has depended on her own muscles for support. An individual who has worn a splint or cast for only a month or two regains normal strength of the muscles ana ligaments more readily after discarding the splint or brace than does one who has been so confined for a year or more. The tapering off plan in volves some exercise, I'm afraid.

Oct. 30, (Special Correspondence) As this is written, the official status of the proposal to construct an alumlna-from-clay plant in the Northwest is obscure. WPB's production executive committee which, in WPB is "the works," has now withdrawn its previous order withholding permission to build the plants. That is the way the statement from PEC reads. However, it goes on to say that the plants (one In South Caro-I Una, one in Wyoming and one in the Northwest) may be built pro viding they do not require in their building, critical materials oivessential manpower. The manpower commission takes an interesting position in the matter following the PEC action. WMC says, in effect, "We have nothing further to say about it local interests in the Northwest declared at previous hearings on the subject that they had names and addresses of more than enough available and non essential labor to proceed with plant construction. So far as we are concerned, let them go ahead that is no concern of ours." In other words, they seem to think that the bluff, if that is the proper word, of some Oregon and Washington committees has been called. To my way of think ing there was no bluff about It. The location of the plant has not yet been determined, but I am sure that sufficient manpower can be obtained at any one of the several possible locations men tioned.

As her muscles recover tone and resume their supporting func tion she will find she has less and less need for artificial sup port.

Beverly mile, Calif. from-clay plant Is far more dan gerous to the actual realization of our hopes than the manpower problems. . o o PRODUCED only from baux ite, as it is now, aluminum pro duction is controlled almost en tirely by one company. This company owns the South Ameri can deposits and it also owns all of the high grade bauxite de posits in the United States. But when the processes for obtain ing alumina from clay are fully developed, there can be no alum inum monopoly. Aluminum bear ing clays exist in many sections of this country and in vast quantities. ooo THEY talk about the shortage of manpower as a reason for not constructing the clay process plants, nonsense. Two years ago we sent an army down to Dutch Guiana to protect the bauxite mines and miners. The army is still there. We are building ships frantically in order to get sol diers and supplies to the battle fronts, but 200 shiploads of baux ite will be imported from South America this year on armed bauxite boats and more will HELP WANTED MEN and WOMEN For work in Camp White Exchange Store.

A, off Crater Lake Highway NOVEMBER 3, 1943 come In next year for only re cently (October 1) bauxite min ing in Arkansas was curtailed 63 per cent! They talk about manpower. The alumina to feed the Northwest aluminum reduc tion plants, forty per cent of the nation's output of aluminum for war, must be hauled 2600 miles constantly tying up 650 freight cars and requiring considerable train-crew manpower. We are throwing the man power issue right back at them, and in definite language. By not proceeding to develop alumina from clay in the Northwest, they are wasting manpower as ior lows: an army in Guiana num bering thousands of men; a fleet of bauxite boats requiring hun dreds of sailors and gun crews; hundreds of trans continental bauxite trains. I have, by the way, mentioned these facts not only in discussing the matter "down town," but in a speech on the floor of the house. e e THERE is daily., increasing pressure on congress from the people to readjust prices by law. Price control was authorized for the duration under the Price Control Act passed by congress, and therefore it is the function of the Office of Price Admin istration (OPA). That is an ad ministrative agency under the control and immediate direction of the executive department in other words, the president. He has the final decision under the war emergency setup. That is the way our system of government works. The congress writes the basic laws and the ex ecutive attends to the admin istration of them. . THERE Is another plan tor! meeting the fuel shortage situa tion in Oregon and Washington coming up, I am told. Once more assurance has. been given that fire-wood will not be rationed, but the solid fuels administra tion insists that the fuel situa tion in the two states is critical and that something must be done. It is about an even bet that uuue. is huuui tui even oet uiai some, form of subsidy will be de- vised. The government " econ omists" have gone subsidy-minded in a big way. Editorial Comment From Klamath Falls Herald and News- : The crops .on the Tulelake WRA . project, which Japanese there have refused to harvest, were grown, for the nourish ment of the people of Japanese ancestry at Tulelake and the nine other relocation centers. But these Tulelake Japs, who are on the records as disloyal, no doubt are confident that the United States government will not permit evacuees to starve, regardless of whether the crop at Tulelake is harvested. They are therefore proceeding on the theory that anything of a productive nature they do will be an aid to the American nation and the American war effort. - - So, evidenUy, they intend to do nothing.: , ... . . . That indicates a picture of some zu.uuo persons sitting in idleness at Tulelake for the duration. That may not be the unanimous choice of the evac uees, but the experience with the harvest' ind-.oatps that the work-resisters. 'n control the action of the en'.ire population. A population larger than that of Klamath Falls, sitting in idle ness within the confines of the Tulelake center, constitutes a situation - that is not pleasant to contemplate. Idleness breeds mischief, and it becomes increas ingly clear that the authorities have a serious business on their hands at Tulelake. We need hardly point out again that this dynamite key is undesirably located near the Pacific coast, near major trans portation arteries, and in the center of a productive area depending for its productivity largely upon vulnerable irriga tion structures. . The planning that first lo cated an evacuee center at Tule lake, and then made it the center for concentration of all disloyal evacuees, can. hardly be classified as intelligent But it has been blunderingly con sistent. In excess of 2500 acres of good farm land was taken over by the War Relocation Author ity for agricultural. use on the project This land was previously farmed by white operators, who made it produce well and har vested the crops. It would appear tnai consid eration will now be given to returning this land to the Juris diction of the reclamation serv ice, which can proceed to lease it out again to white farmers. That can be done in time for full operation next year. Mean while, the project director at Tulelake, Ray Best, assures us that he is going to see to it that the 1943 crop is harvested, and he talks as if he means it. But it won't be done by Tule Japanese. What they do at Tule lake is voluntary, and they have volunteered to sit down. Let us offer here a word of caution to those who feel strong ly -about the situation at the nearby center. Expression of sober criticism Is every one's right,' but this is an excellent time to avoid in flammatory talk. It should be kept in mind always that the government has certain respon sibilities in connection with this situaUon, and that one of these is to avoid anything that could be used as an excuse for ill treatment of our own men in Japanese hands. This is a problem for the au thorities to handle. If we don't like the way they do it, we can say so. But it's still their job. Let's not forget that. Flight o' Time Mediord and Jacksor Co.
