The Japanese can keep Hiro-
hlto, their emperor and divinity,
but under the thumb of the al
lies, the surrender terms pro
vide. His palace guards should
be composed of American ser
geants, who fought in New Gui
nea, on Guadalcanal, in the Sol
omons, at Saipan, Leyte, Iwo
Jima and Tarawa and other
points on the bloody way to
Tokyo. Hardened by war, and
acquainted with the tricky tem
peraments of the Nipponese,
they could adroitly toss him
under the Imperial bed, or out
the palace window If occasion
required. Under their tutorship

Reports from all parts of the
state indicate crowded conditions
in all schools this fall. Fears are
felt there will be no room for
the teachers.
Ex-President Hoover warns the
nation to beware the "creeping
socialism" of Great Britain, and
charges this nation has been in
flicted with samples of it In re
cent years. Mr. Hoover is held
in high disregard by the masses.
Nothing succeeds like notions op
posed by him. He was blamed
as the cause of the 1933 panic,
and unless he holds his tongue
will be listed as progenitor of
tne one coming up.

Will Peace Be Dull?
A good friend of ours wonders what is going to
happen to the newspapers, when and if peace
comes. With no more war-news, the world, he fears,
will be so dull and void of excitement, he doubts
if people will read newspapers anymore.
Of course they will ! Our prediction is they will
read newspapers as much or more and listen to the
radio news less.
AS far as a peaceful world being a dull one is con-
cMTiflfl that is the sort of "dullness" this natter.
and we believe a vast majority of the people, will
welcome with several loud hosannas and a tiger!
This will be particularly true of those who have
sons and husbands, fathers and boy friends still at the
front !
NO, THEY won't find the world of peace so dull!

True, no more box car banners about atomic-bomb
attacks, paratrocp sorties,

But. also, no more casulty lists, no more elderly
W. U. messengers coming

A auieter world and probably a very dillerent one
eventually; but a far better one for most of us. And
one no sane person would trade for the warring world
that has departed. It WAS thrilling to those who
had grandstand seats, but what a price those thrills
demanded from those who directly or indirectly had
to take an active part in it! R.W.R.
That S. P. Promise For Peace
The blessings of peace? One could fill this paper
with them and then require
One of them has just occurred to us, perhaps be
cause a few moments ago we saw our one and only
morning train with that "daylight" parlor car on the
rear come clammenng in from Portland.
IT won't be long now before Medford and Southern
Oregon will have better service, including through
passenger and Pullman service to Portland AND San
Francisco.
Oh, not tomorrow, or next day.
But, it will be recalled by all, that during the con
troversy over the abandonment of through train serv
ice, the Southern Pacific OFFICIALLY declared the
action was SOLELY and EXCLUSIVELY a war

As there was a time
through trains daily, this certainly provides a pleasant
prospect as far as rail transportation in the post-war
era is concerned.
WHAT'S that? You have your "doubts?"

A Seventh Son
Well, we have to hand it to Mr. Roger Babson,' one
of our weekly contributors.
Less than a month ago he crawled way out on a
limb and declared the war with Japan would be over
within 30 days.
The skipper of this department did not believe it
at the time and so stated.
But, the financial "wizard" and Cape Cod evange
list was right. How he arrived at any such conclu
sion was never made very clear. He could not have
known of the atomic bomb certainly, and yet, but for
that "miracle of destruction," the war would probably
have continued for a year more at least.
LJOWEVER. when anyone has the temerity to crawl
out on a limb and categorically call his shots, and
CALLS them RIGHT, well,
We doff the editorial chaneau, execute a deep ob
eisance, and admit that whether the shot was a lufcky
or a psychic one, it places the "shooter" among the
temporary list of the "Omniscent Great!" R.W.R.
A Good
The current movement to
orchestra here will undoubtedly receive wide and gen
erous support throughout Southern Oregon. There has
been a decided need for such an opportunity for
youngsters interested in music to receive organized
training under competent direction. The program
will also assure the public some good symphony con
certs in the months to come a need that has not been
filled here for some time.
AX7HILE the job that Rogue River Valley schools
are doing in their musical training classes has
been a good one, it cannot go far enough. The junior
symphony will supplement and complement this
school instruction and, in doing so, enrich the cultural
life of Southern Oregon.

Picking of the Bartlett pear
crop will start in most orchards
tomorrow with a majority of the
packing plants starting Wednes
day and all in operation by
Thursday.
German prisoners of war have
arrived and are ready to start
picking Tuesday morning, ac
cording to Assistant County
Agent C. B. Cordy. The quota
assigned to this area Is 500 and
they will be worked in the or
chards In groups of 10, each with
a guard-
Most of the 320 Mexicans al
located for fruit work here ar
rived late Saturday and early j
Sunday by train, and are being
checked and assigned to work
places. Another small quota due
today, will be assigned to pack
ing plant jobs and picking.
Crop Larger
The Bartlett crop, estimated as
larger than last season, is rated
of good quality and has sized up
well under the warm weather of
the past two weeks. Orchardists
were busy today getting pressure
tests for sugar content at the
county agent's office. The pears
are now ready to pick.
Packers report little if any
of the Bartletts will be sold to
California and Willamette valley
canneries this season. The pack
ers have agreed to furnish the
Rogue River Packing corpora-

800 tons for canning. This is
approximately the amount of
tonnage sold to canneries last
year.
