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

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

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

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

Mr. Stettinius has the same

He is not the distinctly
