To bed at Klamath, and up just right for breakfast and a full day in Portland. No charge for the plug, George PORTLAND is duller than usual at this time of year, but a slight labor disturbance enlivened the local scene upon our arrival. CIO pickets were trampmg the streets in front of the furniture stores. We inquired and learned the stores are accused of refusing to accept ClO-made furniture from the big Doernbecher plant But the furni SrXw claimed they couldn't get the furm re because AFL teamsters and warehousemen wouldn t handle it. Apparently, there was something to the.r claims, because The pickete weren't operating today. People went back to talking about the war. TOOK a look Sunday at Portland's new Columbia air port. A couple of thousand other people were also there taking a look. Sunday drivers packed the road. Portlanders seem to think they have an unusually fine lay-out in the Columbia port. It's expansive and flat, ad joining the Columbia and affording a fine view of tower ing Mt. Hood. Everybody thinks aviation is in for enormous develop ment as a result of war and defense. The young fellows who go into the air corps will be getting training in an industry that will need an army of men when the hot international situation is past. . RAN into one pessimist who doesn't want to see it hap pen but is sure it's going to be all over with England by May 1.

While he admits the British have maintained Jocal superiority in the air, he believes the Germans can change the situation completely when they get ready to turn loose their tremendous fleets. Once the British have lost local superiority, the stage will be set for a successful invasion. Its not pleasant reauwjs, uui vac yvoo.u,, ity in the situation that cannot be ignored. M.E.

LAST II DRUMS MOHAWK" DAY TOMORROW S,"? n be.' TYRONE n a in P n Ti rUWtK 1 UNDA DARNELL WARREN WILLIAM BINNIE BARNES WENDY BARRIE JOAN DAVIS A 30th Cftvryf ftthm tits Wist' J Behin TTffirtfei By PaulMallon WASHINGTON, Jan. 28 The question of when and where we get in the war is agitating as much Inner discussion as out side. The rough general term in the spring has been used glibly in most discussions. It is true all United States wars, except one (the war of 1812) have been started in April. The revolution started April 19; the Mexican war, April 25; the Civil war, April 15; the Spanish war, April 21, and the World war, April 6. But the situation Is different this time. If left to military men (as apparently it has been in the past) our involvement would certainly be delayed until we are fully prepared, which will not be any time this year. We may not be able to choose the time, however, in view of com mitments which the administra tion has made and may make in both its Atlantic and Pacific policies. FAR EAST THREAT The first break could most easily come in the Far East. There it could develop swiftly at any time from now on. If the Japanese move southward and attempt to bottle up Singa pore, I believe the established policy will require U. S. naval action to keep that whole half of the British Empire from go ing under. Singapore is the source of British authority in that half of the world. Her fleet is occupied elsewhere. Brit ish pressure would be terrific upon us to thwart this leap upon her back. PLANS ON HAND Our navy has war plans for the disposal of ships in the Far East which should ruin the Jap anese venture in a comparative ly short time. Her lines of com munication from Malay to the homeland could be cut. How long the Japanese could last against us is a matter of dis agreement among the experts. Unlike the Italians, the Japanese are savage fighters against over whelming odds. Our fleets now are about equal in the Pacific. Ours is far more efficient, better manned. We could hurt domestic Japanese production by bombing from seaplanes. Her factory dis tricts are made up of an endless collection of adjoining wooden shacks. The Japanese fleet might not dare go far beyond home waters. Our west coast would be in no serious danger of air bombings. At best we would expect victory in a year at most, two years. CONVOY PROSPECT The other visible prospect of early involvement is obvious. If our navy starts convoying ships to Britain, they will certainly be attacked on sight by German submarines or airplanes, and the shooting will start right there. It is only a matter of time until the British will need con voy assistance. They saved the threatening convoy crisis 60 days back by shifting naval units from the Mediterranean to convoy duty. The number of ships they can put into this service is, how ever, limited. So is the trained personnel. Therefore, it is reasonable to expect that sometime soon, a pressure drive for American par ticipation through this means will be encountered. If tjie war breaks premature ly that way, it is likely to be come a purely naval conflict of long duration. We could not bring our fleet into the Atlantic in view of Japan's treaty com- ENCORED!

' "Yes, I find travel mitment to go to war against us if Germany does. The final out come would depend on factors now incalculable, such as how long Britain last at home. Nazi production in the seized ship yards, our own production, etc. OTHERS REMOTE Most other possibilities now being discussed are remote. If Britain falls, her government and fleet would presumably retreat to these shores and the struggle thereafter might well develop into a long-drawn-out race to build ships for a new kind of guerilla warfare on the high seas. Our cities seem to be in no danger of attack from the air, in any event, for a very long ! time in the future. Nor is any i German attack likely to be ! made under any circumstances I for months or perhaps years 'urtnrt Cmitli Am.rira nr fhn ialnnri " ' " " ' " ' ' v. areas of the Caribbean. Such an attack would require detailed preparation. There is one other long-range, logical possibility. If the Ger mans seize unoccupied France, Spain and Portugal, a joint counter-attack by the British and Americans from debarkation points in Africa would be feas ible later on. An offensive against the Germans in Europe is impossible in view of their established positions, but they might be more vulnerable to a joint movement across Gibraltar, with Berlin as its objective. Otherwise, we will produce and wait I toast democracy not alone for what it is, but chiefly for what it may become Attorney General Robert H. Jackson.

Booth (R-Linn) carried out a pledge Monday he made 40 years ago when he began medical practice. The law required that he take his state examination In June, but he got permission to take it in July so he could attend his graduation exercises at medical school. At that time, a member of the Oregon medical examining board said: "Young man, now that you've received permission to delay your examination, it's up io you lo change the law some day so that all medical students may uitend their commencement exercises before taking their examination." Today, the senate passed unan imously Dr. Booth's bill to change the examination date from June to July.
