So In, order, to pre vent the avalanche of eggs which last year overwhelmed the government's buying agency and overflowed Its warehouses the government Is considering a plan to pay the farmer for selling off his lay ing hens for meat. It wisely figures that If It can Just get rid of enough hens it will not be bothered with the threat ened surplus of from 10 to 25 million cases of eggs." a A welfare agency has discov ered the teen-age fad of wearing no stockings, is a health and social breaker-downer.

GOLD HILL BOY SOARS "The becoming-reluctance of fishermen to discuss -their ex ploits" was boldly put to one side by Ben Hur Lampm&n of the Portland Orcgonlan . staff ' who told on Sunday about the manner in 'Which he and an ac complice caught a sturgeon in . Blue lake. It was a good story and the narrative was especially remarkable for the. manner in which the author displayed a certain degree of elation yet kept within the Oregonlan't newsprint quota. Possibly the margin was close but it was worth it We move, Mr. Chair man, that Ben Hur be awarded a bonus, If the little steel for mula will permit such actidn, and that he be authorized here after to sign his stories with the name of Ben Hurcules Lampman. (Pendleton East Oregonlan.) -On Mail Tribune Want Ada, ' What Is An Isolationist? Sooner or later preferably the former the term "isolationist" should be more exactly defined, . During the recent lamented campaign, a great deal was said and done about the isolationists. "Purge" is the word. Practically all the radical U. S. isolationists were kicked out of office. - fXKE of them was our own Senator Rufus Holman. L A J? A - Tl.- AT- 1. ,A.' According UJ ivuius una waa a rau& uijusuce., If to put the Interests of my own county ahead of the Interests of some foreign country is to be an "isolationist," then I am an Isolationist But if to be an "isolationist" is ' to oppose the present war, or in any way do anything to delay a complete allied victory, then I most certainly am. not an "Isolationist" . .; ,( Knowiner the Senator pretty well we have no doubt, whatever, that he was entirely sincere in making that statement. ' - - ,; - Yet in view of his political record, before Pearl Harbor. . Senator Holman DID. qualify. . politically speaking, as an "isolationist". - He voted aeainst important measures designed to prepare this country for war, and did at times, ex- press a . certain sympatny iur nasi uucumco-r:pi-ticularly: along the lines of anti-Semitic propaganda. ,So as such things go, Rufus was properly an "isola tionist" arid; was defeated at the Primaries as such. .. , .., . ..... v . ... , ....... (,,., BUT, if' the 'Senator's definition of isolationist is correct, that to place the welfare of one's own countrv above anv other, justifies the term, then of course Rufus Holman has plenty of company,' not only among his present colleagues in the Senate but among his. constituents at home, and they will steadily grow in number as time goes on. For everyone or practically everyone does place the interests of his own country above the interests of any other. This is as natural and proper, as to place the interests of one's own family above the interests of others. Moreover, just as the latter does not mean excluding others, or not being reasonably coopera: tiveand interested in the welfare of others, so the former does not mean, excluding other nations or failing to be cooperative and friendly toward them. It is in short a matter not of attitude or feeling, but of priority. Putting, as the term goes,,first things first LJOWEVER, this, of course, is not the proper de- finition. The proper definition of "isolationist" is that of one who not only places the interests of his own country' first, but refuses to consider the inter ests of other countries in any way, and believes the best course for this country to pursue" is to isolate itself completely become a hermit nation suffic ient unto itself, with no interest whatever in or. con cern regarding any other nation. ' : Such a person of course would not only have op posed the present war, but now would oppose any further participation of this country in that' war or any .effort to secure with other nations an organiza tion of world peace. - :-' iv.1 T THE. point we wish to make is this: ' ' T tV a. aVtrwA la q nnrvonl A ATitilfirin an iarla tionist and ,we believe it is then there are so few of them left in the United States, either, in public or private life, that with the campaign over we. believe the term should be used very sparingly in the future, and then only by those who realize that for the dura tion at least, it is not so much a definition as an epi thet. : . .. - V . . . ' ' . Return To Isolationism? As an example of careless use of the above term we note in a report from London that the change in the Secretary of State office at Washington is termed by one London newspaper as apparently a turn back toward "American isolationism." - The main fact supporting such a notion is the re cent reprimand from Secretary of State Stettinius re garding Britain's insistence that Count Sforza not be included in the new Italian government,-as well as this country's pronouncement that the United States will keep hands off as far as the internal affaire of Italy are concerned. Supporting this two other facts are cited: ' One President Roosevelt's recent declaration that he has never officially sanctioned "spheres of influ nece in Europe, by Great Britain or any other coun try. And two : neither has he committed this country. in the matter of determining the exact boundaries of Foland or any other nation m Europe. . , - XELL, no one would deny this is a retreat from and Cairo, but to term, what is merely a refusal to interfere in the domestic aftaira of other countries in Europe a return to isolationism, when millions of Americans are fighting and dying in foreign lands, to aid England and Kussia and prevent world domi nation by the Axis, is somewhat grotesque to say the least. . THERE IS undoubtedly a rift in' Anglo-American relations regarding what might be termed re storation policies in Europe. In all Tiklihood President Koosevelt does believe Prime Minister Churchill is too imperialistic and veering too sharply to the right: ,. A, . 1 . X I 1 1 ?Al- A . ' iiu me utuer ns always viewed witn certain mis givings F.D.Ks leftist tendencies. But, to interpret this failure to see eye-to-eye, as far as a post-war program is concerned, as a return of the United States to what is generally known as isolationism or anything approaching it, merely dem onstrates once more how the abuse of the term, so apparent in recent months in this country, has now, gone iar oeyona its borders and to foreign lands. - Br Eleanor Packard United Press Correspondent Rome, Dee. 19 (U.R) Myron C. Taylor, President Roosevelt's special envoy to the Vatican, appealed to the American pub lic last night to open its purse to the Italian people to save them from communism which, he said, the United States does not wish to see; In Italy. , In one of. the most forthright public-statements of his career, Taylor delivered .'an, impassioned- plea ; for economic relief for Italy and condemned the "Brit ish :tttesis" that the Italians' are beaten enemy, and must be made"1o. "pay arid.pay."' .. Taylor spoke at a dinner, ten dered to touring members of the Congressional Military' 'Affairs committee by Brig. Geh. Tho burn K. Brown,; allied coin-, mander in the Rome area. . At the . end of his prepared address, Taylor locked in a brief but acidulous enchange of words with Congressman Paul J. Kilday of Texas after the lat ter had challenged his stand to ward Italy. . Questioned as to what form of American aid he wanted. Taylor said he was not seeking congressional appropriations but wished the committee s endorse ment so that funds . could be raised in the United States on a voluntary basis similar to the relief organizations formed to aid allied nations. Kilday interrupted at that point to say that, although the Italians are allies now, they once were enemies and should be made to suffer for their war guilt as a matter of principle. They should understand their sins cannot so easily be forgiven,", he said. . i .

By United Press '' A Japanese navy spokesman today belittled the new threat posed in the Pacific by estab lishment of an Australian-based British Far Eastern fleet under Admiral Sir Bruce Eraser. "The flagship of Admiral Fra ser, said the spokesman in a Tokyo- broadcast recorded by United Press,- San Francisco "will share the same fate as the Prince of Wales. and the Re pulse." The Prince of Wales and Re pulse, British battleships, were sunk off the west coast of Ma lava In 1942 by Japanese planes "Admiral (Teiliro) T o y o d a. commander in chief of the Ja panese combined fleets, is one of the ablest commanders Japan has ever had. I wish to empha size that Admiral Toyoda will certainly show the British and the Americans the real hidden strength of the Japanese navy.
