BRITAIN NEEDS iinTN
'TOOLnoiiNlWrAi
A word picture of England
with IU morale high and need
ing only the "tools" from Amer
ica to win the war wat painted
for members of the Kiwanis club
Thursday by Dr. F. John Scrog-
' (le, retired London banker and
. minister.
"Can Hitler win?" asked Dr.
Scroggle, and answered his ques
tion with the statement that the
German chancellor cannot win
' without superiority on the sea
and in the air.
Admitting Germany's numer-
ical superiority In aviation. Dr.
Scroggie asserted that statistics
show the British have a four-to-
one fighting advantage.
"There is one word," said the
speaker, "that answers all the
' claims that the Germans are su
perior in the air. That word is
Dunkirk."
Dr. Scroggle told of recent
exploits of the British fleet to
prove that Hitler cannot win
on the sea, and he asserted that
. British shipping losses have been
offset by acquisitions and con
struction. The speaker scouted stories
that London has been virtually
destroyed by German air raids.
There have been extensive raids
and damage, he said, but Lon
don covers a huge area and the
destruction has been small in
view of the size of the city.
Dr. Scroggle said that the ma
jority of English people are not
"appcasers" but that for a time
the leadership of the country
was given over to international
appeasers. Prime Minister Win
ston Churchill, he said, is the
leader in the present situation,
for he never was in agreement
with the appeasement group.
George Mclntyre introduced
Dr. Scroggie.
According to Dr. A. Theodore
Smith, requests for talks by Dr.
Scroggie have been coming from
a number of civic and fraternal
organizations, but he and his
wife may not be able to respond
to all. He is here at the request
of the First Presbyterian church
and part of his time originally
allotted to the church was al
lotted elsewhere; U
Mrs. Scroggie addressed the
Soroptlmist club Thursday giv
ing firsthand information as to
the activities civic and other
wise of the English women in
the crisis.
Thursday morning Dr. Scrog
gie addressed the seniors and
juniors at the Klamath Union
high school, on his life and work
in the great bank of which he
was president many years, and
as to actual war conditions. It
developed that his nephew is in
charge of radio communications
in "the hot spot" on the British
channel.

gle will speak at 2:30 on "The

The weather permitting the
Scroggies will be taken to the
beauty spot in Klamath county,
Crater lake. They are to leave
on the morning train for Port
land,. Saturday.
Last night Dr. Scroggie spoke
on "The Influence of Life," using
as the basis of his address, "Be
not confirmed to this world, but
be ye transformed." He said
very briefly:
"These two words are in op
position to each other. Be not
fashioned according to this
world, but be ye transfigured.
for we have here the same word
used of Jesus on the transfigura
tion mount. While the church
started out to spiritualize the
world, the world has secularized
the church. Paul summarizes
the three enemies of the Chris
tian, the lust of the flesh or ap
petite; the lust of the eye. or
avarice; and the vigor and pride
of life. These things crowd into
the life until God is crowded
out Many of the things for
which we give our lives may be
legitimate enough, but if they
crowd out God, they are wrong.
In the Bible are three defenders
of the Christian, God the Father.
God the Son, and God the Holy
Spirit. God the Father opposes
the world; God the Son opposes
the devil; and God the Holy
Spirit opposes the flesh."

Bulgaria's Claims
A Bulgarian radio broadcast
was heard in Budapest asserting
Bulgaria's claims against Greece
to an outlet to the Aegean.
Greek claims of fresh advances
in Albania strengthened belief
among observers that Germany
might not wait much longer be

Political quarters said the

4. The attitude of General
Maxime Weygand, whose armies
in French North Africa might

5. The attitude of all France's
North African colonies, and
6. France's attitude toward
the United States.
Which, if any, of these points
Franco hoped to clear up in his
conference with PeUin was not
ascertained. But authorized com
ment in Rome indicated that all
were involved, in varying de
gree, directly or indirectly, in
the Franco-Mussolini meeting.
These commentators, inter
preting the official Italian com
munique on the meeting, flatly
extended the official Wording to
include Mediterranean and Af
rican "problems."
The Rome communique:
"In talks which took place on
the morning and afternoon of
February 12 . at Bordighera be
tween the duce and the caudillo
and Spanish Foreign Minister
Serrano Suncr, the identity of
view of the Italian and Spanish
governments was ascertained on
European problems and those
which interest the two countries
in the present historic moment."
(Madrid's communique, ap
pearing to restrict the scope of
the conversations to EuroDe.
said: ... It is possible to state
that there was complete identity
of views of the Spanish and
Italian governments on all prob
lems of a European character
interesting these two countries
in the present historical mo
ment.") In Rome, an authoritative
source said: "Spain's attitude of
solidarity with the axis powers
continues."
Axis circles and at least one
newspaper, II Popolo Dl Roma,
scoffingly dismissed as "infan

I Mussolini, through Franco, had
sought to make a separate peace

Man Decides Not to 'Turn

Dcwcy Rundolph, Portland gar

eastern trip this week still dizzy
from a scries of discoveries about
himself.
He found that his name was
Stone, not Randolph, and that ho
had three brothers and a half
sister of whom he had been un
aware for more than 40 years.
The disclosures begun a year
ago. A Portland mail carrier,
Dennis Metz, returned from a

the board's total budget would
be about the same as the gov
ernor's recommendiition of $3,
782.087. D. A. Salaries
The committee held up action
on a house-approved uin to in
crease district attorneys' salaries
from $149,600 to $188,000. sev
eral committee members object
ing to the provision that the
state pay salaries of deputy dis
trict attorneys in Multnomah
county. Salaries of deputies in
other counties are paid by the
counties.
Rep. Angus Gibson (R-Lanel,
chairman of the house ways and
means committee, objected to the
"political pressuro of the district
attorneys In asking us to pass
this bill."
The committee withdrew the
program of aid for crippled chil
dred from the public welfare
commission and transferred it to
the University of, Oregon Medi
cal school, with a $106,000 ap
propriation. A bill to permit legislators to
examine lists of public welfare
clients was approved by the com-;
mittee, which amended it to pre
vent legislators from copying the
lists. The measure is intended
to head off a resolution calling
for investigation of the public
welfare commission.
The house passed unanimous
ly and sent to the senate a bill
to provide free blood tests for
all expectant mothers to detect
syphilis.
The bill was amended to per
mit women with religious
scruples to refuse the tests,
which must be made within 10
days after first consultation with
the physician.
Legislative activities reached
top speed with a vote of confi
dence for tho state highway com
mission in the house and four
committee hearings last night.
The house defcuted a resolu
tion which would have set up a
legislative committee to arbi
trate disputes between the high
way commission and towns over
location of highways.
Speed Limits
The senate roads and high
ways committee voted in favor
of a bill to set a speed maximum
on the highways of 45 miles en
hour, 25 miles an hour in resi
dential districts and 20 miles an
hour in business districts.
A hearing wat held on a bill
to change truck taxation from a
ton-mile levy to a flat $5-a-ton
basis. A. F. Harvey, superin
tendent or motor transportation
for the state public utilities com-'
mission, testified It would reduce
tax income by $123,000.
Truckers said revenue would
not decrease because many
truckers now evade the ton-mile
tax.

didn't have any brother. Muil
Carrier Mots replied: "Well, ho
said ho was your brother, lie
sure looks like you."
Randolph took the address, in
vestigated by mail, then took a
trip to Iowa and Illinois where he
found, successively, brothers My
ron, Robert and Burt Stono and
half-sister, Mrs. Clarem-u Adams,
lie also found a birth certificate
which proved that ho too was a

It was belatedly revealed to
tho 42-ycar-okt l'orllaiuler that
his parents were divorced short
ly after his birth and his mother
remarried, becoming Mrs.
Charles Randolph. He was given
his foster father's name but
never told of his real parentage.
His three elder brothers contin
ued to live with tho futher, who
also remarried. A daughter was
born to the second union. The
older brothers later learned from
an aunt that their younger broth
er, under the name of Randolph,
resided in Portland.
"Maybe I ought to turn to
Stone," quipped the Porttunder,
"but I think I'll remain Run

now."
