Boston, Mass., Nov. 0 This Is election day for Boston. And
to an Oregonian the situation Is unbelievable. There Is no Corrupt
Practice Act here, or If there is, no one pays any attention to
It, and everything you can't do at home Is done and howl
Wa took a walk down Commonwealth avenue toward Park
street (pronounced Pack street) and before we arrived at our
destination, had a basket full of political pamphlets, several hun
dred candidate-cards and eight offers for a free ride to our voting
booth wherever that might be.
Everyone knew us, we have never been greeted so enthusi
astically and warmly In Boston before and once upon a time we
lived here or across the river in Cambridge, one of the close-in
suburbs. Then Boston was noted for Its coolness toward strangers,
not so now, and It hasn't been that way since our arrival. There
are six candidates for mayor and practically everyone we have
met in our wanderings has been for some one of them.
m
The three leading candidates are Curley, Kerrigan (Incum
bent) and Reilly, you not only have to have an Irish name but a
good one to get anywhere politically in Greater Boston. Everyone
we have met has been for Reilly principally store clerks and taxi
drivers, all but one, however, were betting on Curley.
Curley has been mayor before three or four times, Is an all
around bad egg, and over 70, but he has a Tammany Hall here
which would make the real Tammany Hall In New York green
with envy, and does.
Boston is very advanced in some ways, can't beat it for music,
learning and all around culture, but politically It is still in the
Paleozoic era, or at least the Boss Tweed and Dick Crocker eta.
And you should listen to the electioneering by loud-speaker on
this election day and the button-holing all over town trucks rush
ing about with the driver shouting through the mike for Curicy,
Kerrigan or Reilly, the only names we have heard to date at
least. "Vote for Reilly he will be best for Bas-tun!"
We hope Reilly is elected, just as we hope Morse Is elected
mayor of New York but don't expect either will be. The chief
reason Is the split field, too many candidates, nothing less than
the old Nazi doctrine of "divide and conquer."
Walking along Winter street ran into an old friend, no place
but Boston would have a Winter, Summer and Milk street all in a
row. Quite a coincidence for nearly all our old Boston friends are
dead. He took us to the Touralne a popular stamping ground 40
years ago, and remarked, among other things, that votes are
coming high this year as everything else here in New England.
In the old days they used to sell for a dollar, but this vear thev
range from $4 to $5. We know how that will shock our readers,
but votes ARE bought and sold In the larger cities of the Atlantic
seaboard. It makes one appreciate Oregon, so pure and Innocent
and so FAR awayl
Like everything else the Touralne has changed with the pass
age of time, though down-town

sharp voices, buzzing around.

it has what so many large American cities lack, poise, dignity,

distinguished! Undoubtedly one of the most Interesting and pic
turesque cities In the world.
From Tremont walked down an alley, few of the Boston
down-town streets are wider than Medford alleys, to Washington
street in search of the old Adums House. Back In 1902 they
served the best oysters, Bass ale

the Adams House used to be Just a restaurant and not much
better than Thompson's Spa, not that" Thompson's Spa Is bad,

Adams House did, and achieved It. "Alas poor Yorlck!"

But there were Youngs and the Parker House after which the
famous hard rolls were named. At Youngs a very notable dinner
was served not so many years ago, make it 48 to be exact! and

News Behind

in China upon
American
forces there
several weeks
ago. I have
private but di

tion a United
States navy

was "shot up"
floating down
a river. I have
also learned of
caul Alanon
numerous in
cidents where planes at Ameri
can airfields have been shot at.
Damage was done in most in
stances but there were no cas
ualties. Official authorities pre
sumably kept these matters
quiet for diplomatic purposes
(Russia?)
Instead the dally news routes
from China are being plied with
rather Injured assertions from
the communist "New China
Daily News" that th United
States Is now don't laugh sol
diers after the war you have
been through there "interven
ing In the domestic affairs of
China." I suppose next the com
mie press will be charging us
with Intervening In the affairs
of Germany and Italy, where
our troops also are.
e a e
ANYHOW, In this instance, the
" Chinese communists asserted
whatever we did was dastardly
of us. because Russian troops
were, politely withdrawing from
Chinese territory, In accordance
with the treaty promise. They
neglected to mention the Rus
sian communists had left them,
the Chinese communists, to start
a civil war against the establish
ed allied Chinese government.
All this means, of course, is
that the communists are losing
their civil war. The only Inter
pretation which should be put
upon my above Information Is
that It points again to the de

system which allows foreign
agencies to use us for their

-Bn,,lfl Acr.Mnllv when nur

official authorities do not care
to give out statements of the
facts. We need to bulwark our
free press against such easy Ill
use. A second way we are being
deceived is with truth. Our pro
fessional liberals are riding the
front pages and airwaves with
assertions that Generalissimo
Chiang Kai-Shek Is a dictator.
They constantly present to our
eyes and ears the truth that his
regime Is not a democracy. They
say no more.

VlEI.L, the generalissimo has

years now. No men international
attacks on him were marie dur

clple of Christian principles. !
The communists, atheistic or
agnostic disbelievers in Chris-1
tian principles, only pretend to
advocate democracy. They rep
resent Stalin's bid to capture
Asia in absentia.
a a a
THE only choice for us In Asia
is between those two alterna
tives. All other argument is Inv
material. I could report as bad
things about the kuomintang
regime as the communists are
reporting to us now. It is cor
rupt In many spots, In others it
is not good government.
China Is suffering Inflation
which the kuomintang has not
combatted. It will have a ter
rific struggle to survive not only
the communist opposition, but
itself. As I reported before, 1
have authoritative Information
98 per cent of the struggling
Chinese people are not much
interested in either government
The kuomintang government
however, Is our ally, was a par
ticipant with us In setting up
the United Nations war and
peace organization. It co-oper
ates with us wholeheartedly.
The communist government may
or not have a unique degree of
Independence from Moscow, but
it would vote today with Russia
against us on any matter of war
or peace; in fact, Is in armed
rebellion against our ally.
Put this basic background
thought to any China news dis
patch you read from now on,
whether it comes straight from
the communists or circuitously
through American or other
spokesmen and laugh at them.

Parade Praised
To the editor: Considering
the 'dirty deal the weather man
gave the Armistice Day parade,
it was a very presentable affair.
The bands, as always In par
ades, are the redeeming feature
and Monday's parade was no
exception. 1
The snappy school band of
the Pear City and the Highland
Bag Pipe laddies in their tar
tans and bare legs from the
mountains of fair Ashland made
a decided hit as also did that
splendid group of youngsters
playing concertinas'. Another
group that made a hit was the
Redmen, the noble bucks in
war paint and feathers accom
panied by their nifty squaws
and young bloods. They looked
like the real thing, no foolin'.

Ashland Fans Ready
To the editor: I noticed In
the Oregon Journal that Klam

rolling to send Medford's team
to Chicago if a game can be ar
ranged there with the winner
of the Interscholastic league.
I am quite sure that a great
mob of Ashland fans would also
like to see such a game ar
ranged and would contribute to
the expense fund. Count me in
for $5 if needed.
If Ashland cannot win a state
championship we always would
like to see one of our neighbor

"There are nearly three times

Hugh Baillie, president of Unit

yesterday after a two month's
tour of the Pacific where he wit
nessed preparations for the unde
clared civil war now underway
in China.
Baillie said in an Interview
upon his arrival at LaGuardia
airport from San Francisco that
he had seen United States forces
preparing to move Chinese na

in Shanghai had seen numerous
machine gun emplacements. He
was told, he said, there were
400,000 communist troops in the
Shanghai area, but "I never saw
one of them myself."

His trip was highlighted by
exclusive interviews with Gen.
Douglas MacArthur, Emperor
Hirohito and Generalissimo Chi
ang Kal Shek.
The U. P. president said he
had been asked many times by
Americans on his way back what
he thought of the future possi
bilities of pre-war Japanese In
dustrial bonds.
"Since there is no longer anv
Japanese industry," Baillie said.
I certainly don t believe the fu
ture of such bonds is bright."
Japan cannot recover unless
the United States gives It assist
ance. Baillie said. He pointed
out that the country faces a se
vere winter and "is Just down
and out. They haven't anything,
not even shovels or paint brush
es." Farmers Fare Best
The Japanese on the farms are
in fair condition, he said, but
there is no way of getting food
stuffs into the cities. He said no
plans had been set up to do this
since "it's not on the agenda."
"General MacArthur told me
that he had no plans for giving
the Japs food or housing. He
said that as fast as we can get
Winter Is Almost Here!
Let us check your ear over now. Tune It up for

trouble so you won't waste your anti-treeze. Let

places. In other words, let us put your car in
proper condition for winter driving.

the ships he plans to dump the
Japanese who are in Korea and
China back into Japan."
Baillie emphasized he was not
making a plea for sympathy for
the Japanese but was just stating
conditions as he saw them. As
for the Japanese "I don't give a
damn about them." he said.
Describing the destruction and
the impoverished condition of the
country, Baillie said the people
"need everything."
AH in Ruins
"Everything is in ruins," he
said. "They are punch drunk and
beaten. They were not only lick
ed in the war, but they were
beaten down as human beings.
Any rebuilding they do will have
to be done with their own hands.
They haven't even a shovel."
He said that at the present
time "the Japanese are faced
with the problem of existence.
It is a country without any na
tional income to speak of. The
mass of the people are glad the
war is over. Quite a few are
sorry it ever started and a lot of
them are sorry they lost it."
He said some of the Japanese
soldiers are still impudent "but
they are getting on the band
wagon. They try to pretend that
they have suffered from a great
disaster like an earthquake and
that we have come to sav
them."
