Grant county. Oregon, with
more steers than people, has a
meat shortage. It must make the
natives wonder why they once
cussed former President Hoover,
so heatedly for Inflicting "meat
less Tuesdays" on them, in 1918.
The weather Is now talked
about more than Herr Hitler,
suspected of being swallowed by
the earth, or Argentina. The
weather is always wrong. It tries
to make the valley a suburb of
the Florida swamps, or the
Great American Desert. Things
are always right for it to float
away, or dry up and blow away.
The Japanese war Is approach
ing what is known as "the clim
ax." The more cheerful experts
figure by the last of June the
Nipps will be waving ktmonas
from windows as valiantly as the
self-admitted German "master
race" waved sheets the last week
of May. When the tg was up
or the Teutons they became
Russians or Poles. The "sons of
Heaven" will either be China
men or Koreans.

The cigarette tax, on the spe
cial election ballot June 22, is
rated as an "easy way to get
taxes," for there are enough
people with prejudices against
them to give the measure a good
start. They should light up their
pipes, or take a chew, and bit
out for the polling places.
San Francisco, June 4. Still no sign of when this

There was another protest meeting at the Scottish
Rite Auditorium last night, with another large and
vociferous audience on hand. A new figure appeared,
one Paramhansa Yocananda, founder of the
"Golden World Citv" at Encinitas. California.
Y. Yocananda is the onlv lartre and fat East Indian
we have ever seen, a striking contrast to the man he
claims to worship, Mahatma Gandhi. Also the only
East Indian male in our experience who looks and
dresses like a woman. t
The chairman called upon P.Y. to pronounce the
onenine nraver. an invitation he accepted with alac
rity, cutting quite a figure before the microphone in
his flame-colored robe, long flowing black locks, and
strange vacant face.
The prayer was not long, but when the chairman,
a BPnnna minded and somewhat dejected appearing
young man, rose to continue the program, the Yogi
from Encinitas, proceeded to sit down behind a table
on which a small box reposed and started to sing,
playing the box with one hand explaining that it was
a form of native organ. The song was monotonous,
sing-songy, suggesting a Chinese funeral march
crossed with the Klamath Indian burial service.
This WAS lone. But it finally ended and again the
chairman arose and advanced toward the rostrum
Vmnafiiiiv Rnf YnnnnaTnia had other ideas and re
marked that he would read a few of his original
poems, producing from the folds of his ample cover
ing a heavy roll of manuscript and proceeded to read,
what may have been very beautiful verse in Yogi or
Sanscrit, but in the back-row as far as your correspon
dent's auditory reception was concerned, was com
pletely unintelligible
The chairman's face during this performance was
a study in anxiety and frustration. We are certain he
was fearful the founder of the "Golden World" was
under the misapprehension that the meeting was his,
and not a meeting to advance the iortunes or. tne
"Free India" crusade and was wondering just how a
la A 1. ? .r L.'
chairman should proceed to miorm mm oi lusenui,
without creating a scene, or having to call in the
gendarmes.
However, there Is an ending to everything, or
almost everything the final page of the mss was
finally put aside as Paramhansa started to return to
his seat,' a signal for, the chairman who was already
on his mark, waiting for the gun, to again arise, but
ntrain he was halted in his tracks, as the "Mahatma"
returned to announce he would have more to say later
on in the program. And he did.
But not until the silver offering had been an
nounced and most of the audience had departed I

(SF. Chronicle)
"The result is little sense,
and less of it all the time, but
all the time more childish
nonsense compounded of
booming black markets, mys

sophistry, cover-up and down

and under the control of the

Russia will govern the east por
tion. Including Prussia, which
insures a rush of the self-confessed
"master race" to areas
under American, British, and
French direction. No weapon

low the medicine they planned
for the rest of the world. How-
ever painful, the Hun will have

This was the only new feature of the program with
one exception.
The exception was a demand, that not only the
suffering masses of India, Burma, the East and West
Indies and So. Africa, but those of Porto Rico and
the Virgin Islands be given their INDEPENDENCE.
A certain Dr. Richard Moore (colored) was re
sponsible for this clarion call for liberation from the
cruel enslavement of our own Uncle Sam ; this got
a bier hand, as do all demands for freedom of the
oppressed at these East Indian gatherings.
As far as that goes, this department does not oppose
the complete independence of any dependent people,
who want it and have expressed the desire over
whelmingly in some official and convincing way.
And this goes for India, if a plebiscite were held and
the popular demand for independence, made clear
and certain.
But the question, as before stated, has no proper
place on the rfgenda at this peace conference.
This conference was called to devise ways and
means to prevent future wars, -or. materially delay
them and anyone who doesn't think this a man's size
job, better come down here and attend a few of the
sessions 1 . .

wasnington, June 6 Mr.
Hannegan is taking nothing for
granted. The political pal of the
president
actually sent
skilled scouts
out into vari
ous sections of
the country to
ascertain how
the new moves
from the White
House are re
garded. He did
not trust polls,
even his own,
but wished de
tailed reports.
From all sections the answer
was about the same. In effect.
they amounted to an enthusiastic
go-ahead sign on the line Mr
Truman is hewing with his cabi
net changes, legislative sugges
tions and foreign policy.
Mr. Hannegan was told by his
selected agents the nation had
warmed up to methods of the
executive, although the left wing
crowd, embodying the stereo
typed new dealers, was a little
restless and inclined to indulge
in a few carom shots. As a mat
ter of observable fact the CIO.
for a prime example, did not in

Stars and Stripes attached the
editorial comment "well, we'll

from Sacramento that the Cali
fornia assembly had passed a
bill enabling wives to have ille
gitimate children without the
husbands being notified.
The army newspaper said the
bill is "another indication of a
growing tendency among a cer
tain type of thinker to make of
the overseas veteran a peculiar
social problem who must be
spared the realities and hand
processed back into civil life
upon his return."
It said a vociferous minority
of social workers were con
