INVITED TO CAMP iL Sunday Morning Services in Post Chapel for Families Says Col. John R. Young. Camp White Personal lnvita Uons from Col. John R. Young, commanding officer of Camp White, have been sent to fam ilies of southern Oregon world war II dead to attend a special memorial ervice in the past chapel at 10:30 a. m. Sunday. Invitations were sent to all the . families whose addresses were known at camp, but many are not available at post head' quarters. Col. Young emphasized that the service Is public and that It Is especially for those who have lost members of their families in the present conflict, whether or not it was possible to reach them with an individual invitation. The service will open with an organ prelude by Miss Kay Gen ter, after which will come the presentation of the colors. The memorial address will be given by . Chaplain John V. Richert after a solo by Pvt. William H. Adams and the invocation. Chaplain Richert will pro nounce the benediction and Pvt. Adams will sing again, after the address. The program will end with the . national anthem, fol lowed by one minute of silence and the playing of "taps" by a ' bugler. ' News Behind The News ;. By Paul Mallon i 4i)i. nieuijj liih Paul Mallon Washington, Dec. 1 Congress was inwardly a Utile disappoint ed in Mr. Roosevelt's choice of Edward Stet- tinlus as state secretary. Foremost senate demo crats had a campaign go ing for t h e i r old friend James Byrnes, the economic g e neralissimo. Twenty four hours before the appoint ment was announced they were working arddntly. But Mr. Roosevelt called For eign Relations Chairman Tom Connally and Senator George down to the White House a few hours before the announcement and explained the situation to them. . Byrnes was far too valuable a man to be lost from economic direction, as he alone knew all the Intricacies of that fathom less task, and knew nothing of the ' complex . development of war-peace policies in foreign af fairs, while Stettinlus had been handling them for a year. That aatlsfied practically . everyone required satisfaction. THE truth of the matter is Stet- tinlus was put into the de partment more than a year ago with the idea of his elevation to the top post in view, as read ers of this column at that time will recall. Mr. Hull's health has not been as good as advertised for some past. While his throat ailment did not develop malignancy, the latest diagnosis is supposed to show diabetes, and he could not go on. As a matter of fact this col umn was able to say first un der date of . November 7 that Ms relinquishment of office for health was one of the great changes to be expected out of the election. (The white house denied it a few days later, as the president was then hopeful of at least persuading Hull to keep his name on the office door.) MORE disappointed than the .democratic senators were Vice-President Wallace's friends. He wanted th Inh Tt nrnnlri "have provided a nice boost for aim. But since he has failed with the vice-presidency, and after all the things he has said about world affairs in the past three years (half-way to communism is a goal for us, quart of milk a day for everyone, etc.) it has been quite evident to all except the extreme leftist new deal that he was not qualified to handle the severe difficulties of postwar negotiations on their currently realistic plane. I can find no evidence Mr. Roosevelt ever considered him for the post. THE supplanting of ' such a strnntf. fnurei-fn AniM mm Mr. Hull by a man nearly 30 years ms Junior is bound to bring some changes, although they will come gradually. Hull, single handed, and work ing against the politicians, achieved whatever dfnw nf unity has been accomplished on me peace. He stood lor morality in the world order and without compromise. His department was honey combed by intrigue against him. The Ipft. . Urlnffara itmra .tiBa trying to slide jiim through a irapaoor. cut he always put his foot down, bluesfrenlrpri nine words at the proper timet and won over them. He is handing nis department over to Stettin ius fairly clean. Mr. Stettinius has the same ideals as Hull. Wallace was right in describing Vilm ing "purity of purpose." more, man that he has a diplomatic manner. While his appearance is aristocratic, he gets alone with evervnne Hit office force worships him. Once he came before a congressional committee from a vacation. tanned, cleanly dressed with a bow tie. his nremntnrplv tuMtn hair thoroughly brushed down. u congressman leaned over to coueagua and whispered: "NOW you See What Rnri ran An when he really tries." N THE senate they are saying Mr. Roosevelt rhneA o man dependent upon him entirely for a diplomatic career, in order that the executive himself might be his own secretary. I do not think it will work out that way. Though congenial and mild mannered, Mr. Stettinius is a realist. Though diplomacy may prevent him frnm tnllHna fartm aloud, he knows what they are. ana never Has lost sight of them. He is not the distinctly torial type, but when the time comes to get the peace treaty through congress he will get along all right with the legisla tors, because of his diplomatic ability. His difficulty is that he has stepped into the second big gest pair of shoes in Washing ton, and he may not know how to kick.
