Pmi$HERi44$JLC)lTI0R Ye Smudge Pot By Arthur Perry During the hot weather, phy sicians advise people 'to eat only when hungry.' Many, however, with all the propaganda about shortages, hungry Europe, etc.. etc., will play ante, and eat when ever they get a chance. e e . e Germany, according to a re port to a senate sub-committee, though defeated, Is In better shape to fight a world war than in 1B18. If this logic is correct. Hamburg and Berlin, admittedly 80 per cent destroyed by air raids, are bigger and better cit ies, than ever. , e e Count Clano, late of Italy, In his diary reveals Mrs. Mussolini, was mad at 11 Duce, and often threatened to 'come to the palace shooting.' Unfortunately she didn't, or the pages of history would be different It is also too bad she never1 kept a diary, or the American public would now be reading It. e e SLICK TRICK ITEM ; (Kansas City Star) "Widespread complaint that some of the margnrlne has been tasting different lately have started ugly rumors that some of it is adulterated with butter." e e e Jerry Jerome Tuesday ob served his 29th anniversary of looking a preacher in the eye e e ' Passenger train travel restric tions promise to get tighter, be fore the end of the year. Valley grads of 'Old Oregon' have an eye out for hand-car, for a trip to the annual civil war with OSC on the gridiron. e "e Next Friday the 13th is the birthday of Jim (Purewater) Owen. No expert, ho expertly predicted, the day and date, as the one on which Japan would surrender unconditionally.

DIFFERENT THIS TIME (Press Dispatch) "It must have been a terri fic shock to old Bcrliners who remembered the canned peach es, flour, beef, pork, coffee and other foodstuffs that arrived from a forgiving America in such profusion after the last war." e e The results of the recent Brit ish elections will be announced July 26. A large number of na tives, either too tired or busy, to struggle to thetf own polls In the June 22 special vote at home. are downright disgusted, at the dllly-dnlly shlftlcssness of the British.

Wednesday, July 11, 1949 Mote "Bush-Wah" Senator Bushfield of South Dakota should have his head examined. Last night he gave another speech against the United Nations pact repeating his former accusations that it: 1. Violates the U. S. Constitution. 2. Violates the Monroe Doctrine. 3. Violates the Pan-American Union, and, Last, but not least, gives vote in the "war-making" Council against ten votes of "foreigners", his implication being the United States may be dragged into another world war by the votes of "furriners", etc., etc. WE can see only two answers to Senator Bushfield : oitrnai tVio man ia iiriV.alar.n.ra1 Via ia f Vi vmisl spokesman for some underground isolationist group, that is opposed to ANY international peace organiza tion of ANY kind. ... Take that last statement as an example : To hear the South Dakota senator rave and rant one would conclude that the United States could be forced into some war any against 10 foreign votes, in e BUT that statement is not PT7.V17PQ17 rt-P Vo The truth is that those to war themselves, can not or any important League fact, as long as that one is against it. As has been repeatedly that one-vote-veto from the sovereignty of this country Powers, is the pact's great point of its effectiveness, it is, we ueiieve, its great weaKness. i i -j . i DUT what sort of a reasoning process must a man nave, wiiu can in txjjxi fact of that one vote to the IMPAIRMENT of their national sovereignty and an invitation to the iniquitous up with their 10 votes and to again shed his life's blood on the battlefields of foreign lands ! We don t know Senator the man before, so we may be doing him an injustice personally. He may be entirely sincere in this crusade. But if so we do believe, both for his own good and the good of his constituents, a psychiatrist should be called in, and hand down his report as soon as pos sible 1 Nehru Opposes Mr. Jawaharlal Nehru, brother of Mrs. Pandit, head of the Indian "rebel" party at San Francisco, announces thfet he favors not communism, but socialism This remark will cause talked with Mr. Nehru's followers, during the confer ence near the Golden Gate. For one great fear they had was the brand of Soviet Russia on their undefiled And the remark of Commissar Molotoff in one of the first plenary sessions that "there will soon be an independent India" did not help matters any 1 e P"0R rightly or wrongly the Nehru delegation be lieved that the people of America are still over whelmingly opposed to the Soviet form of govern ment. Any suspicion here that an independnt India would go "communist" would therefore kjll the goose that lays the golden eggs, and in the Indian mind, financially speaking, Uncle e e CO there was the East Indian dilemma at San Fran- VSl J (1. Ill VI JJL LUC HI, The only member of the Big 5 giving the Indian "rebels" any aid and sympathy was Soviet Russia. And yet the Indians could not afford to accept or benefit by such assistance, at least openly, or American aid financial' and otherwise might be lost. MOW Mr. Nehru's public repudiation of commun ism, as far as his own and his party's ideology is concerned, undoubtedly source. And LITERALLY it is true. If the Nehru faction should gain control of the East Indian government, it is not likely, an essentially socialistic rather than a communistic form of govern ment would no doubt be established. e e e BUT unless all indications fail, the result would be uuwtuiu im me man in me sueet to uisunguisn from the present government in Russia. For Russia's present government is not a commun istic one. It is a mixture of socialism and state capitalism, directed and controlled by a dictatorship of the prole tariat. Industry is nationalized, farms are collective, education free and extensive, the social and caste distinctions of Czarist Russia destroyed. e e IF we understand the Nehru program correctly, it nuiuuou mi ijutwuviwiy uie saine cnanges in ine East Indian government and economv.

News Behind The News By Paul MalloD Washington, July 11 The end of the Truman housecleaning of his inherited Roosevelt cabinet has not yet come. Next to go will be In terior Secre tary Harold L. Ickes. This departure rests merely upon a slight question of time. Mr. Ickes does not fit into the stan dard the new president is creatins at Paul Mauno the top of the government the standard of democratic party ex perience and political back ground In congress, highlighting substrata sub-cabinet back ground of trustworthy Missouri friends, and a generally higher tone of fitness for the particular joD-at nana. Mr. Ickes is a mugwump Re publican. Mr. Truman, while in congress, was probably the only man there with whom Mr. Ickes had. not fought at one time or another. The president is in no hurry for the change, yet you may mark it down in your little red book, Mr. Ickes definitely will go. rjTHER alterations near the top may come earlier. An im portant shift up the line behind Fred Vinson, the Impending treasury secretary, rjrobablv will oe worxea out this wav: jonn s.nyder.

Davis moves up to take Vinson's old inh director of war mobilization and reconversion. Emil Schram, president of the New York stock exchange and an old friend of the departed Jesse Jones, will go into Sny der's job in charge of the old ! Jones empire. These changes at least are in ! the cards, and will come about If no one drops a card. OIX of the ten Roosevelt cab- ...b. -.nuu wBiuicia a.icaujr have gone, and one more, Ickes, will make-it seven. The three re maining are to continue Indefin itely. This is highly significant in one respect. It means Henry Wallace, the former vice-president, defeated by Mr. Truman for renominutiun to that post, is to continue as commerce secretary. While Mr. Wallace's experience on the sub ject of "commerce" has been limited largely to publication of a farm magazine, he is a sort of general custodian of the left wing element, and Its observer at the top table. Wnatever are the reasons, Mr. Truman does not intend to let him go. ine other two holdovers are War Secretary Stimson anri Navy Secretary Forrestal, who obviously are in for the Jap anese duration. No thought of supplanting them has been en tertained, and they may be listed as exceptions to all Mr. Tin. man's cabinet rules, in view of ine emergency nature of their positions.

MABEL BARBER, 172 Skidmore St. Ashland, Ore. Who Is To Blame? To the editor: I wish to thank those from whom I received such nice let ters referring to my communi cation on the sugar shortage. Not only housewives have been af fected, but thousands of baker ies and restaurants have shut up shop, their efforts nullified in the business of making a living. Those who do cater to the black market may keep going for while until they are found out. Haven't you heard stories of our boys, home on furloughs? The stories run something like this. "Ma, I m sure glad to be home. How about having a big steak and hot.blscuits with gobs of butter. And a cake with that big, gooy Icing?" And the ans wer: "Well, son, I'm sorry, but you know we are rationed now and most of our meat, butter and sugar goes to you boys overseas. Does this sound funny to the boy who has probably spent a great deal of time on K rations? I re cently had dinner at a home and the host said, "I'm sorry, but we don't pass the butter any more, We are told there is a shortage of butter, a shortage of beef. shortage period' At recent stockmen's meetings, the fact was stressed that there Is plenty of beef on the hoof, which will probably remain so because of slaughtering regulations and red tape. Recently, too, our meat dealers complained that choice cuts of beef are molding in stor age because our red points would only purchase the cheaper parts Of the animal. Butter !s reported A WANTED 25 USED CARS and TRUCKS. Will pay Highest - Market Price. CALL or SEE your Dodge Plymouth Dealer L. C. TAYLOR CO. Phone 398$ tainting and spoiling In Port land. Then who Is to blame for this wholesale hoarding? Surely not the OPA, with it's belt cinching program and it's warnings to "buy only what you need." . If this butter and meat had really been sent to boys overseas, we would gladly eat butterless bread and hash. There is a whale of a differ ence between free co-operation with a system and coping with it. Up to now, we have been cop ing with a complicated system that leaves bewildered citizens in its wake. And what are we going to do about it? I can pret ty well tell you. We are going to sit on our dignities and ylpe and howl and spout off that someone ought to write to some body or other in Washington. To whom, we haven't the slightest idea. America is urged to become the world's bread basket, to feed the starving countries. It looks like, with this contradictory man agement, this formula that says the left hand mustn't know what the right hand is doing, we'll have to say, "Sorry, we don't pass the butter any more." Well, don't mind me folks. I'm Just a chicken farmer try ing to make ceiling prices on feed and ceilings on chickens balance the books. CARMA McCARTY, Trail, Oregon, Philip Henselman Home on Furlough From Ft. Sheridan Pfc. Philip Henselman arrived Saturday from Ft. Sheridan, 111., and is visiting his parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Henselman, 415 Edwards street, until July 18.

Henselman attended schools in Medford and entered the service in August, 1942.
