Feb. 4 UR Allied headquarters denied a Kyodo News Agency rriort stating that a Japanese ship would sail soon for the United States car rying 2600 bales of raw silk. Headquarters said no decision has been reached regarding the time, destination or what boaU will be used. Monday. Ttb. 4. 1(41 Editorial Correspondence Tucson, Aril., Jan. 31 Finally got here In the "Bad" Ship Sedan after a rough voyage. The BSS no doubt realized what was in store when It refused to start in front of Valentine's cafe at fl a. m. the day we left Medford. It was only thinking of ye editor, of course, but as usual, ye editor was contrary and kept trying, so here he is more alive than dead out not very mucn morel Somewhere south of Modesto, Calif., the Good Ship' started to shimmy. The road was smooth, but it was hard to keep the old boat on it. We had a couple of sailor boys with us as ballast at the time and the one who was going down to Ssn Diego to get his car, remarked that the trouble was probably due to a bent con necting rod on the steering gear or absence of proper tire align ment, or perhaps a poorly constructed remade tire. (We always believe what ANYONE tells us about a car on the assumption they know more about a car than we do which is correct.) We asked him If the ailment was dangerous and he said it might be. so we handed the car over to the Bakersfleld for the night, and asked them to check up, etc. e e e e e That was the start of the trouble. The steering gear worked OK when we started out the next noon, and still does for thst matter. But when we turned off 99 at a place called Gorham for a short cut to San Bernardino, the shimmy had worked back to the rear axle, the ship steered OK In front, but the rear skidded from side to side when we got over 40 m.p.h. like a kite without a tail. If there is one thing we don't like In a car it Is a skid, which goes back to the time we skidded on the Siskiyou grade one Icy morning and only a strsy boulder on the side of the road saved us from David Jones' locker, using a nautical term for the benefit of the BSSI So we stopped at the first garage in the desert wilderness and Interrupted a lone mechanic long enough to be informed that the "stabilizer rod was broke" and he had no time or apparent in clination to mend it. "Don't drive fast," was his final remark as he nipped off a fresh chew and spat in the dust. So we didn't; therefore it was nearly closing time when we reached the "Buick Service" at San Bernardino and explained our predicament. We don't know anything less hospitable than a strange garage In California around closing time. Perhaps its the same in Oregon, but we don't think so. The foreman was taking off his white coat and preparing to wash up when we accosted him. He didn't haul off and hit us with a wrench but he did say he could do nothing at that time of night, there was an all-night garage in Rcdlands that might, good night) e e e e e "Don't try to drive fast," was also his kindly advice, "that rear-end might swing you into the Again we followed orders, Redlands. In fact, we have never taken a trip where we have encountered more false information In less time than this one and more service station and garage attendants who know nothing about their Jobs or the communities in which they are living. No doubt this is a result of the war traveler much. However, we did find a garage that was open and were able to buy a new stabilizer rod, the proper size for the BSS. we were careful about this becsuse the San in stock and feared one for a 1940 "You can get someone along ain't much of a job, anyone can do it but" It was the same warn ing as before, "don't drive fast or you might wake up in the morgue." (OK If we did WAKE up!) e e a We neglected to state we had Indlo hotel, a small place near stayed before and had no idea that we could not find a place to sleep. We had done the same at Stockton and Bakersfleld, far more populous and popular com munities no naa naa no trouble. But we didn't know the new ceived the wire but to get a room one had to get a reservation there at least two weeks in advance! They feared it was Just as bad in Palm Springs, which we didn't doubt, or elsewhere in Indio, which we doubted. But soon found out the hotel clerk was 100 per cent right.

Can't say much for that trln and a steady stream of fast-trucks directions. But it was better than yards, which was the only foreseeable alternative. It was 1 a. m. when we reached El Centra and the famous Barbara Worth hotel was as tightly packed as a fresh bag of wheat and no one, moreover, was allowed to sleep in the lobby, snoring might keep the night-clerk awake perhaps!

(In fact we might state In passing that from Bakersfleld to Tucson, Ariz., at night, the highway is brightly Illuminated by the aforementioned "no vacancy" signs.

They looked more uncomfortable than we felt, THEN. A man at the Indlo Inn was room but said that a few weeks had slept in his car, "wasn't bad some hotels.

How can I persuade my husband to take dancing lessons and after that to step out dancing with me now and then? All he wants to do is play poker, golf or go duck hunting, leaving me home to sit on my hands. A. A Pitts burgh wife recently reported she had induced her husband to learn the rhumba by arranging that lessons be given him by a glam orous brunette. After he had learned to rhumba he was so anxious to exhibit the accom plishment she had no difficulty in persuading him to take her out to night clubs. Passing By Dorothy Ford. Statuesque night club entertainer. She is six feet, one inch tall. First achieved outstanding success at the world famous Copacabana night club in Rio De Janeiro. In Rio the night club patrons like tall girls providing they are brunettes. Blondes are not so popular there, I don't know why . . . Casey Stengel. Whimsical major leag uer. As he passed by the fellow with me remarked that Stengel had ma ' ; three home runs in one world's series. I said Casey had hit two home runs, not three, while playing for the Giants in a world's series against the Yankees. Now if you are a young old timer and a baseball fan with a memory you can tell me which of us was right. Stogie Department A resident of Hollywood strongly contradicts the claim that Clark Gable Is not a six footer. Says he: "I work with Mr. Gable's tailor. I know his measurements. He is six feet, one inch tall. Please send two stogies; one for me and one for the ""jss. Perhaps I am wrong. But then it must be considered that no man takes off his shoes when measured for a suit. Let us hear from Mr. Gable's trainer or gymnasium instructor as to what Clark measures when pre pared for a shower bath. Maybe I am being stubborn about this. But the clients have been tak ing me for plenty of stogies late ly. I have to be careful. By Request How about your Horses & Women department telling us something about horses for a change?" asks a Baltlmorean. That is a reasonable request. Among horse experts it has al ways I -en considered unwise to buy an equine with four white feet. The most quoted advice in this respect is worded as follows: One white foot buy him. Two white feet try him; Three white feet look well about him. Four white feet go without him. Currently active is a racehorse named Snow Boots. His name is inspired by the fact that he has four white feet. Snow Boots re cently broke the world's record for a mile and one-sixteenth and many people believe he will win the $100,000 Santa Anita handi cap. His performance shows him to be a truly remarkable animal. Therefore, we are removing the above quoted advice from our Horses & Women files. I will also dljcard it when 1 go to Sara toga next summer to buy a year ling for my one horse stable. Prolific Papa A Bostonian wants to know which president of the United States had the most children. She adds: "1 have a bet with m. hus band on this. Please, Eddie, don't ' :ve l ;h -sv -r." "e 1 co.icerncd, lady. This 'e partment never fails its clients. Well, hardly ever. Anyway, President Tyler, who was mar ried twice, had 14 children which is the record for presidents. President William Harrison, who married only once did all right, too. He had 10 children. Vanishing American In eighteenth century there were about 830.000 Indians In the United States. During the nineteenth century this number dwindled to around 233.000. Hence the description: "The Van ishing American." But in recent years the .ndian population has been increasing with astonishing rapidity. Now there are about 400.000 Indians in the U.S.A. and more being born daily in great numbers. Maybe nature is getting ready to give this coun try back to the Indians. Home Town Boys ). O. Mclntyre was fond of referring to "Home town boys who msde good In the big city."

Jackson County Coal To the editor: Concerning the recently published letter of Roy G. Patch of Hornbrook, Calif., about Jackson county coal: I'm familiar with all the coal veins In the county. Have been coal miner, coal mines manager and aided in development of coal mining operations. My late father was a coal min ing engineer and expert In coal by-products after carbonization. Following is his report on Jack son county coal veins: By-products 1-gas, per ton of coal, 7,000 to 10,000 cubic feet; 2 oil or tar (free from water) 15 g a 1 1 o n s; 3 ammoniacal li quor, 65 gallons; 4 carbon resi due, 955 pounds. Gases extracted make a good medium for heating and cooking or use in engines to generate power, for browning tile, pot tery, brick, etc. Other by-products are, light oils, benzine, etc., 11.5 per cent; carbolic oils, some napthaline, 13.5 per cent; creosote oils, 34.1 per cent; anthracene oils, some paraffin, 16.4 per cent; pitch hard, 24.5 per cent. Also hun dreds of synthetic products In the way of paraffins, acids, chemicals, etc., may be derived from this coal. Almost all such by-products have heretofore come from Ger many. Millions of gallons of creo- soting oils for preserving tim bers and ties have been import ed annually. The European sup ply is diminishing and the mar ket value of these commodities on the North American continent is considerably enhanced. It Is not unreasonable to ex pect that in the near future a large part of this demand for gas and tar products will be sup plied from coal stores such as you have in Jackson county. This coal i....y e turned into millions of dollars through carbonization of the coal itself and also in use of the coal for the home in the form of rough, washed, briquet tes. Jackson county should burn her own coal and help boost its great coal fields. The future is assured in this vast coal lead when capital co nes there enabling erection of large reduction plants.

Feb. 4 Politics is warming up. The young men and women are coming back from foreign fields plainly displeased at the way things are going. Some tell me Uncle Sam Is known in r-any foreign nations as "Un cle S u g a r." They tell of waste, ineffic i e n cy , or raui fclaiion throwing our money around, and talk of get ting into politics. The ballot lists this fall will contain a lot of veterans who think they can do something in congress, if they get home in time. Certainly the group displeasure of this 12,000, 000 voting mass, now fairly well congealed in ideas, threatens a complete overturn of existing legislative personalities if not the whole political complexion of affairs. Scenting opportunity, the re publicans are getting busy. The national committee has, for the first time, assumed onsibil- ity in the congressional cam paign (committees or congress men usually head the effort.) The '.aff at headquarters has been about trebled to create 11 departments, one of which has started a monthly newspaper with a circulation to date of 230,000. A state quota system of raising money (like the Red Cross) has been started, and a small contributions mail cam paign has been launched, in or der to take financing away from the gentlemen of bulk contribu tions, ' known In the political trade as "fat cats." . e e e . ALL this has been done by Governor Dewey's man, Her bert Brownell, Jr., the commit tee chairman, who says his drive is to "elect a Republican congress." I hear, incidentally, Dewey has told friends he is not in the runni.ig for 1946. He points out to them that Republicans have never in history renominated a defeated candidate, wh!ch was news to me. Dewey would like the nminatlon apparently, but does not expect it. Personally I expect much will rest on wheth er he is re-elected governor this year. Last time he won against a split, and it is possible he will have more formidable opposition this time. If he wins, it will be said no one could have beaten Roosevelt in a war year, and he will be back in the running. The Stassen grasp for leader ship is finding form, in the way of organization and money. A St. Paul man is on the road traveling for him. The same man was high in the Willkle entourage, and there are fur ther Indications that the New York crowd which backed Will kie e' -ady has its hand in pocket for the former Minne sota governor to be next presi dent. They have been conspicu ous at the speakers' tables where Stassen spoke. A weekly magazine has published a report that thj ex-Lord & Taylor ex ecutive, Walter Hoving, who was active in the last Dewey headquarters, will eventually play Hanna for Stassen, The Cowles Brothers, publishers, ap pear to be running the invisible bandwagon so fa1-, particularly brother Mike in Iowa. My Re publican sources say he has been hiring people. see ALL this inside activity has caused many who have ob served it to surmise that Stas sen will keep on his speaking tours (he has not yet taken a job that I have heard), the or ganizing will increase in tempo and when the Gallup polls start. Stassen will be on top. Many think he will remain there. My own opinion is he will have his main trouble keeping In the limelight without a po litical office, now that he has started so early. Willkle killed himself doing it. w OUR IDEAL Our ideal of service bespeaks an individual quality bated on consideration, care and char acter.
