Loe Anlelee, Se attle, Portland. at. De Be- Loula, Atlanta, Ye Smudge Pot By Arthur Prr The Times Opposes the Big 3? The London Times does not seem to be so enthu siastic about unconditional surrender of Germany. , At least before the surrender, it outlines what it believes should be one of the principal conditions. "Germany should not be dismembered nor should Its heavy Industry be dismantled. We should have a strong Germany in Europe after the war, not for the sake of Germany, but for the sake of this country and of Europe for the sake of a prosperous and a secure Europe. Germany can then be controlled by superior force, and so be unable again to wage aggressive war." Well, well! That statement takes direct issue with Secretary Morcenthau, who wants all German heavy industry distributed to the victors, and the Third Reich reduc ed to a sort of inoffensive pastoral land, with only a little light manufacturing for local consumption al lowed. And it also takes issue, one presumes, with the secret plans of the Big Three Messers Churchill, Roosevelt and Stalin.

As has become generally known, Russia objected to a plan drawn up by the British and unreservedly supported by us, specifying that If one of the big our powers was a party In an aggression dispute, It should retire from the deliberations about what action to take.

Insolently directed argumcnta live democrats to put- their money where their mouth Is. There Is considerable editorial comment on why the names of Herr Hitler, Himmler and other leading super kraut monsters are . not on the Allied list of war criminals. All are sensitive souls, and may resent being Ignored. "A Wisconsin man 107 years old has decided to quit farming, and when we get that far along, we may decide to quit the coun try printing business." (Weston Leader) Ye ed. begins to think of withering. Tha proposed coffee shortage failed to percolate, but while the rumors lasted hoarders had field day. The hoarders were not hoarding they were Just 'playing safe,' Is the apology most offered. Brazil, the chief producer, has mora coffee than she knows what to do with. Now Washington, D. C reports rather than permit the coffee to spoil In the fields and warehouses, It will be put on the markets, where some of It will still spoil, due to the machinations of bean- ery chefs. Outside of being wet and warm, there Is little that can be said about coffee. SPEED IDIOT ALIBI (American Analyst) "What were you doing," questioned the Judge sternly, driving your car 70 miles an hour?" And the defendant replied: 'Tour Honor, I was trying to get home before I killed some body." It Is now charged candidates for office lack enthusiasm this year, and make no appeal to the voters, who, so far are also Kumptlonlcss. The calm and peace is nice, niter the many hectic years, when candidates did everything but the St. Vitus dance to be elected. Mike Hanley, the Lake Crk. cowman towned and traded yes, smiling at friends and looking fierce at the taxes. A bevy of Gypsies went through town enrly todny, with out stopping to go through a citi zen. YE STUMPED SCRIBE (The Dalles Chronicle) "What ought to be done with parties who have been married and who say they have been divorced, and who are both staying In his house on his ranch?" The above "queery" somewhat misspelled and written on a postal card reached us yesterday, un signed. We admit frankly that we do not know the answer." (50 Yrs Ago Col.) SO no doubt the Big Three will be able to take this onrni'iom rr Vilnaf In frlftlr errirlo frit Trio Hmo being at least. But it is only another indication of the breakers that lie ahead. In England opposition to unconditional surrender is growing day by day. Not because of any weaken ing in the hatred and distrust of Germany but be cause of a growing fear, that another year 6f war with a completely crushed and dismembered Ger many, will mean a Communist Germany, and Eng land doesn't care to have Communism any nearer Trafalgar Square than well let us say Warsaw ! That is the real milk in this particular cocoanut. It promises to increase and grow sourer and sourer, as tne war goes on. From Pink to Red? Speaking of communism, when General De Gaulle kicked out General Giraud, several months' ago and took over supreme power himself, friends of the for mer openly charged General De Gaulle with being in league with Stalin and the Communist party of France. The charge was vigorously denied and General De Gaulle took it upon himself to then broadcast to the world, that not he but the people of France would decide what form of government they wished, just as soon as France had been liberated and peace re stored. that may still be the plan. But judging by General De Gaulle's speeches since the Germans were driven out, and also by the political character of his chief lieutenants, the pro visional government if not red is certainly a definite pink and an effort to condition the people of France to a radical turn to the left is certainly in the process of being carried out at the present time. it or General De Gaulle has not only come out for a planned economy but for: We quote: "All natural resources must be controlled by the state, for In these modern times governments are much better fitted than Individuals to exploit the riches of the earth. . . . Your new government favors an equal share of national Income for every Frenchman." That does not make the General a French Stalin necessarily but it certainly does make him a French Kerensky. And it is the history of every economic and social revolution that the moderates soon give way to the extremists the Napoleons to the Robespierrcsl War of "Surprises Washington, Oct. 3. (UP) Mme. Ion Antonescu, wife of the ally In official J0" P" minister, gave film a inwiuuf5.il luiiKUC-iosiiuia, but Romania's queen Helen made everything all right with offers of money and gifts of food and cigarets, a repatriated American war prisoner reported today. 1st. Lt. Peter S. Marioles, 25-year-old 15th air force navigator of Lowell, Mass., became a pris oner when his plane was shot down near Morenia 2Vi months before Romania got out of the war. . Without a Shirt Mme, Antonescu's harsh atti tude, he Indicated, resulted In part, at least, from the fact that she caught him without his shirt. "Mme. Antoneecue once visit ed some of us convalescing In a hospital at Ploesti," Marioles said at a press conference. "We didn't expect her and I had only my pants on," he related. "This seemed to shock her very much, and she turned on me and told me I ought to have my eyes plucked out. "She called me a gangster and said that I got $800 for every mission I went on, and this was the only reason I would fly to make money.. Lady Long Winded "I told her that if that wasj the way she felt about it, there! was no use talking, and walked away," Marioles said, adding ' that a Romanian doctor who' witnessed the scene told him he had done the right thing "be-' cause that woman would keep it up for an hour." Queen Helen visited the hospi tal twice, the flier said. Once was accomnanierl hv Kine Mihai. "She brought food and cigar-! ets, and asked me if I needed, money," Marioles said. "I took everything except the money. I had no use for that. 10 YEARS AGO TODAY October 3, 1934 (It Was Wednesday) Dizzy Dean hurls St. Louis to 8 to 3 victory over Detroit in first world series game.

Firebugs Busy In Oakland District Oakdale, Calif., Oct. 3 U.R) A series of fires believed started by an incendiarlst swept over several thousands of acres of farm and grazing land in the vicinity of Knights Ferry and Eugene yesterday and last night. At least a dozen fires broke out at widely separated points In the area. Five rural fire trucks and hundreds of fighters brought the fires under control. One suspect was taken Into custody. as the military situation per- tnll. ' THE subject seems to me to contain the heart of the whole peace problem, although the officials here say 90 per cent of the program was agreed up on, including the creation of the top council of large nations and the assembly of all nations. They must be measuring by the amount of foolscap upon which the agreements were typewritten. The Russian posi tion certainly reflects her Inten tion to retain freedom of action, if nothing more.

TO me personally It appears the fact of the disagreement Is not as Important as that Rus sia stressed It tc the breaking point.

JALOPYPARADE IS PLAINS THREAT Washington, Oct. 3 U.R Another "jalopy exodus from the great plains" like that of the 1930's is inevitable if a compre hensive reclamation plan for the upper Missouri valley is not put into effect after the war, Wil liam E. Warne. acting commis sioner of the bureau of reclama tion, said today. "The precarious character of the agriculture, the desire to avoid relief as far as possible, the lack of power, the inaccessi bility of water supplies, and fre quent low purchasing power have combined to deprive the great majority of rural farm dwellers of the Missouri basin of a high standard of living," he told the senate irrigation committee. The craft to which he was assign ed participated in the Sicilian, Italian and Normandy invasion operations. Before entering the navy Lt.
