"You are not eating any of this truck!" he shouted . "You are eating one of my fish. I am going out to the kitchen and have it speci ally cooked for you. This fish," he .continued " comes from the great state of Oregon. It Is a salmon. Oregon is the finest state I in the whole world and this Is j the finest salmon. There is no I finer salmon than an Oregon salmon. Included In the party were Rep. Frances P. Bolton and Rep. Winifred Stanley, Republicans: Mrs. Nadine Andrews, prominent society matron and son; Miss Mary Hornaday of the Christian Science Monitor and Mrs. Kitty Bancroft, wife of Navy Lieut. Paul Bancroft. The women, according to the columnist, waited for their luncheon and soon the waiter placed the platter of fish before Rep. Bolton. "She lifted the flsrit onto her plate and began eating. The others waited for their help ings. They kept on waiting. Fin ally Mrs, Andrews summoned the waiter and said: 'I hate to bother you in these war times but where is our lunch?' "'Why,' said the waiter, 'You've had it.' "The mystery was cleared up a moment later. The one fish had been intended for the whole group but Mrs. Bolton had eaten it all." The mystery, so far as Oregon readers are concerned, is still not cleared up. however, for no Oregonlan believes any one woman can eat an Oreeon saimon ai one meal, tne fish averaging 20 to 30 pounds.

The president did not an swer any of Gov. Dewey's charges nor will not. He will be moro careful next time though as you say. We are finding out some very disappointing things about Mr. Truman though, and people should remember that there is a possibility that If the Demos win we may have him for president.

Past 24 hours: High Low Prec Better Change Now To the editor: We wish to take this means of expressing our appreciation of your Tuesday's editorial. There is an old and true say ing that it takes adversity to bring out the true character of a man. And now that the going is getting a little rough it is evi dent that the present occupant of the white house isn't above playing dirty. This so-called first campaign speech, designed as It was to ap peal to a shallow thinking class of people, should convince any fair minded and serious think ing person, just how badly we do need a change in the white house. And it would seem like a smart thing to make change now, while we has'e an honest and capable man avail able. We might not be as lucky another time. .John L. Nealon Central Point, Sept. 29 Los Angeles. America military victory, will head into a chronic depression worse than the nation has ever known, and will then emerge as a Fascistic state, Norman Thomas, Social ist candidate for president, pre dicted today. From this American Fascism, or possibly social democracy, the nation will be plunged into a new world war within another generation, Thomas said. Speaking at a press confer ence upon his arrival in a swingl around the country, Thomas said enactment of a post-war military conscription program would be an admission that last-jneno Ing peace has been lost. He said both Roosevelt and Willkle knew that war was in evitable in 1940, but they didn't tell the people. Boise Boston Chlcnco Denver Eureka Havre .
