The Governor of Oregon has

Editorial Correspondence
San Francisco, May 16. Secretary Stettinlus held his second
press conference yesterday, and enjoyed himself very much.
The subject was "human rights" which the secretary emphasized
Is one of his favorite topics and in his judgment may well comprise
one of the major accomplishments of this historic gathering.
e e a a e
It Is Interesting to compare the various big shots at this con
ference, an excellent opportunity being provided at these close-up
press conferences.
rif thm all to date Secretary Stettinius is the most ingratiating.
He addresses the news men by their first names, smiles a great
anri In answering Questions shows a definite eagerness to
please. .
We would not be surprised to learn he read Dale Carnegie s
"How to make friends and influence people" more than once,
and accepts the modern business formula "the customer is always
right", more literally and enthusiastically than any of his col
leagues at this imposing gathering.
e a a e e
In fact, if one were to search for complete oppositcs In the field
of diplomacy and foreign relations, the choice of Secretary Stet-
t nius and Commissar Molotov. could naraiy De improvea upon.
Temperamentally and professionally they certainly are as unlike
and far apart as the north and south poles. It was difficult to
resist the wish that the two men could pool their characteristics
and methods, and then have them divided on a 50-50 basis; Mr.
Molntnv more a devoted disclnle of Mr. Carnegie, and Secretary
Stettinius somewhat less so. The success of this conference would
certainly be greatly enhanced by such an operation!
Secretary Stettinius gives one an Impression of youthful energy,
enthusiasm, a man delighted with his job, bending every energy to
make a success of It, but to use a golf term "PRESSING" a bit,
perhaps!
As the Secretary of State went on witn nis tnesis, wnicn at limes
rose to a crusading fervor reminiscent of Secretary Wallace and
his bottle of milk for every Hottentot, that dour, resistant, cynical
figure of Molotov, pale and unsmiling, kept coming up in spite of
all we could do, especially when the former head of U. S. Steel
declared:
Equal rights and self determination of peoples and freedom of
speech, freedom of press, freedom of information and freedom of
communications" are among the fundamental purposes of the new
world organization!
Freedom and self determination for POLAND?
Freedom of speech and press in any part of Russia or any land
which Soviet Russia now controls?
And then those firm bull-dog features of Winston Churchill arose
as "Winnie" proclaimed the inviolability of the British Empire,
and Secretary of State Stettinius soberly Intoned:
We believe furthermore that it is a special obligation
of the greater and more powerful nations to respect the
right of self-government not only in their relationships with
the peoples of dependent areas, but in their relationships
with the people of small nations who are already indepen
dent and wish to remain so!"
(Later one of the East Indian newspaper men arose and asked
if the secretary had any special "dependerit peoples" in mind.
Needless to say the answer was in the negative, but could hardly
be heard in the laughter -which arose.)
So what?
Well in brief a lot of words signifying, in any realistic sense.
absolutely NOTHING!
For not only are these human rights not to be enumerated in
the covenant of world security, but no machinery is to be provided
for the enforcement of such rights, if subsequently they should be
named.
Then why waste valuable time and energy In such directions?
If these declarations are to be taken seriously then they can
only cause resentment In Russia and Great Britain; if they are
not to be, then why clutter up the records with them at all?
e e . e e e
It seems to this department that the business before the house
at this conference is to create the machinery for as far as possible
preventing war and especially any repetition of the present war,
at least during the present generation. And that is a big enough
Job without branching out in an uplift program for foreign govern
ments that don't want them, and claim their peoples are not yet
ready for them.
Let first things come first.
And tha first thing for this conference Is to get the peace machin
ery set up and then see that it WORKS! As R. L. Stevenson once
remarked concerning other matters, THIS will require all man
has of fortitude and delicacy." R.W.R.

PAYS LAKE VISIT
Leo A. Borah, Washington, D.
C, editorial writer for tha Na
tional Geographic magazine, was
a member of a party headed by
E. P. Leavltt, superintendent of
Crater Lake National park, and
Arch Work, of the soil conserva
tion and irrigation section of the
Department of Agriculture, that
left Saturday for the park. Bor
ah will gather data for a forth
coming article on southern Ore
gon, and will be followed in a
couple of weeks by photograph
ers, Supt. Leavltt said the other
purpose of the trip was to view
snow conditions, relative to a
definite date for opening of the
park for visitors. All travel in
the park will be by the Tucker
"Sno-Cat."
Manager George Howard of
nearby Diamond Lake, reported
last week snow had melted away
near the lodge, scheduled to
open June 1, but it would be
necessary to clear away snow on
the Diamond Lake highway at
its highest point for traffic.
Stump Ranches Key
To Black Markets
Seattle, May 19 (U.R) OPA
officials said tonight that be
tween 30-50 per cent of all meat
sold in 19 western and central
Washington counties, including
the city of Seattle, was sold in
the black market, and meat sup
plies available to the public were
10-15 per cent lower than this
time last year.
Blaming farm slaughterers for
the mnin "leak" in area meat
supplies, OPA food rationing of
ficial B. J. Fotheringham said
the bulk of these slaughterers
operated "little stump ranches
on the edge of cities, from
which they sold meat to friends
or restaurant operators without
points and at higher than ceiling
prices.
The serious part of these di
rections for applying support to
the deranged knee are Dr. Trus
low's. The facetious touch, as
you would suspect, is mine.
Speaking seriously, for a mo
ment, I hesitate to pass this sug
gestion along to sufferers from
internal derangement of the
knee, even though I know It is
a boon to many such sufferers.
The trouble Is that it may keep
them comparatively free from
accidents so long that they be
come content to drift along with
out benefit of surgery. So let us
be candid: This support devised
by Dr. Truslow is in my opinion
superior to any other elastic or
flexible support for internal de
rangement of the knee. At the
same time I believe it never
cure the trouble. Further, I be
lieve there is little or no pros
pect or hope that the trouble
will heal spontaneously. So there
