OltOOOllHWflPJ P U B L I S WE B 0 1 Ye Smudge Pot - Br Arthur Perry The War Crimes commission Is in disagreement over the meth ods of procedure In the trial of notorious Nazis. The defendants themselves, at the peak of their power did no fine-haired quib bling over ' technicalities, when in the mood for mass executions, and operation of human (laughter houses. They did not fool and fiddle, but shot and hanged without the slightest re gard for decency or Justice, or mercy. Therefore, the sympa thetic consideration for the mon sters now brewing, causes the public to squirm and suspect old . age will overtake the guilty, rather than speed-breaking Jus tice. Punishment Is getting mixed up legal shennanlgans. The prosecution may have to prove there was World War II, beyond reasonable doubt Everywhere the weather Is out of kilter, with rain prevailing, without a clear explanation of the whyfore. It may be the weatherman like the rest of the world Is scared of the Russians. ... Japan, wl)ose troubles are multiplying with sufficient pro- fuseness to shame even a rab bit, reports there is "no reason' for a Japanese-Russian war. The same goes for all of them. But, commonsense failed to hit Tokyo before the B-29s. YEARS AND EARS . (The Dalles Chronicle) "Da guerro types, with their exquisite soft shades unriv alled by all the camera's work since, ambrotypes, melano types and tin types were on the easels. The fashionable coiffures of today, with no ears to speak of, were found not to be an original Idea In the '90s, but a reproduction of the style of the '80s." (30 Yrs. Ago Col.) A Fort Jackson, S. C, soldier sneezed every time he kissed his beloved. An army doctor in vestigated. He reported it was due to the face powder used by the lady, so the weather was exonerated. ' San Francisco, May 24. There are still FEW things we don't understand: (1) Why should Soviet Russia have three delegations here and the United States of America only one? (2) Why Chicago was ever christened the "Windy City" when San Francisco wins the "windy" accolade by 2173 nautical mlles7 (3) Where the Arab delegation which caused such furore at the start of the conference have put their Desert Song costumes? (4) Why Secretary Stettlnius did not talk to the President over the 'phone Instead of nying to wasningion? . (S) What has become of Senator Vandenberg of Michigan? (6) Why there should be no butter in San Francisco, or practi cally none, and plenty of it in Los Angeles? . (7) Why there should be only half a dozen good restaurants in Los Angeles and approximately S00 in San Francisco? ' (8) Why Bernstein's "Grotto" down on Powell Street used to show speckled trout in its front-window pool, and now only catfish? If Mr. Gallup should conduct a poll here among the conference delegates posing a question somewhat as follows: "What has Impressed you most as far as ban Francisco is con cerned?" There is no doubt of the answer, none whatever. It would be the CABLE-CARS, particularly the Powell street line. We had supposed New York newspaper men could not be Impressed by anything at least anything west of Niagara Falls. But no less than one of the most dlstlnguisnea memDers or tne N. Y. Times staff informed your correspondent the other day that he Just "couldn't get over those cable cars, where did they come from, how did they they happen to go on, and on?" It was his private opinion that they were a definite menace to life and limb and "should not be allowed!" That remark is typical. Take all the visiting delegates from Aruk to Zanzibar, and we have no doubt whatever that would approximately be their reaction. One thing they will NEVER forget as far as San Francisco is concerned, that is the crazy little cable-cars. SOMEthlng has happened! And it has happened to the Russian representatives here. It is one of two things. Either the All Highest of Russia, Com rade Joe Stalin himself has at last seen the hand writing on the wall and directed his delegates here to show some "savvy" and out their best, rather than their worst, foot forward, or, There was really some point in asking lor special delegations from the Ukraine and White Russia, white Russia prefers the term "Byelo Russia" for the Ukraine and White Russia, for the two are as different from the original Molotov delegation, as white from black. We hope before the conference ends to know the answer. We don't, as yet. But we DO know the two press conferences, one yesterday and one today, one with the Ukraine and the other with White Russia, were no more like the Molotov conferences than the Top-o-the-Mark Is like Fishermans Wharf.

Dmitry Z. Manuilsky, showing surprising eagerness to talk and clear up any misunder standings that might exist. And today it was much the-same. The White Russian chairman was almost as fluent and ingratiating as Secretary Stettlnius him self, starting the proceedings with a long written statement, which sounded for all the world like a Chamber of Commerce prospectus, enumerating all the natural resources, -the IQ and the glittering prospects of this liberty loving section of Russia, with Minsk as the capital, and an area and a population greater than that of Belgium. (It Is only ONE of the 16 INDEPENDENT Soviet states!) . The two conferences both held in the Colonial ballroom of the St. Francis, were much alike. Both White Russia and the Ukraine, are eager for a strong Independent and democratic Poland, both claim they are not dominated by Moscow and could if they wish, become completely Independent and autonomous states, but they don't wish to as yet. They are delighted to be In the beautiful city of San-Fran-Cis-Co and to appear before the distinguished representatives of the American and foreign press, and they have great hopes that out of this conference win come a new birth of freedom and a better world. In fact there is no reasonable doubt these two press conferences were engineered by the Stalin representatives here on orders from Moscow, and the members told what to say, and not say. In fact at one time the delegation from White Russia Instead of answering a question regarding Poland, referred to the answer made by the Ukrainian delegation the day before as sufficient, and the same for his state. However It IS true these two conferences marked a welcome change and a definite step forward in the publicity relations, more in harmony with the prevailing atmosphere and spirit of the conference. One little slip by the spokesman and foreign minister of the White Russia delegation, may have some significance, may not. When asked about the continuance of strict regulations regard ing foreign correspondents, and freedom of the press within the country, Kuzma V. Kisclev wondered for several moments and then said: , "All these things come under the heading of war regulations. When the war ends, they will end." Whereupon our Mcphisto East Indian friend arose to Inaulre in his perfect Oxford English: , "But, Commissar, hasn't the war ended for RUSSIA?" The only hearty laugh of the day followed, and the only time we have seen these "unsmiling" Muscovites Join in the merriment, was then. R.W.R. . . Cloudy. High 82, low 62 de grees.

Portland, May 28 (U.PJ Cali fornia potato producers are sup plying only about one-tenth of the demand of the Oregon potato market, and the situtaion throughout the state is very tight, a survey revealed today. of the Klamath and Deschutes variety, the state faces a "tough1 future unless larger California shipments alleviate the situation soon, officials here Deneve. Men in the chief potato pro duction areas of the state know that despite a good crop the past season, there is reason to expect even fewer potatoes until the new crop comes in from Cali fornia with sufficient quantities to meet the Browing demand. In Klamath Falls, home of the Klamath potato, some California spuds are being received, al though housewives are finding the prices exceptionally high. The Klamath crop hit a new high last year when 12,500 car lodas were shipped from the re gion's bases during the season. Harvesting begins in the fall, continuing through most of Octo ber and November. Often in the was not the case this year be cause of the celling and the last cars were moved from local sid ings in April. The War Food Administration, working in conjunction with the army, took much of the Klamath output, and for a time during the picking season, no spuds could be sold without army permission. A dehydrator was set up at Klam ath and some of the crop was processed. At Bend, producing center for the Deschutes potato, the vege tables were not too plentiful, al though stores had some for re tail trade. The Deschutes and Klamaths are fall crop potatoes, making it necessary to import most of the spuds at this tim of year. Use Mali Trlbun. Want Ada.
