- Senator Holman's Vote
THE downstate press reports there has been some talk
of an attempt to recall Senator Rufus Holman because
he voted against the lend-lease bill. It is remarked in
the Oregonian that legally, the people of Oregon do not
have the power to recall a United States senator. Re
gardless of this obstacle, we do not believe a recall
move of the kind would get anywhere nor is it justified.
Senator Holman's speech in the senate explaining his
stand on the lend-lease bill shows clearly that his motives
were honest and sincere, and that is enough for the
average citizen, regardless of his disagreement with the
senator's opinion. "While the election to take either
side of the issue was freely mine," said the senator in
reference to his vote, "I chose What probably is the un
popular side because I believe it is the right side for the
welfare of the American people."
In his speech, Senator Holman objected to the lend
lease bill chiefly because of his belief that in it "is the
surrender of constitutional powers by the congress to the
president." He said further that the bill is designed "to
make the president dictator of the resources, labor and
destinies of the American people." Mr. Holman made
an emphatic stand for national defense, urging that the
United States "not now go afield, inviting it (the home
land) to be attacked." He expressed his sympathy for
Britain, but said "I cannot have a divided allegiance. I
cannot at the same time serve the American interests and
the interests of any foreign nation on the face of the
earth, regardless of my personal sentiments."
Many citizens will take issue with what Senator Hol
man says, and right may be on their side in this vital
question. But what is important is evidence that the
senator's decision was based on diligent and conscientious
consideration, and-he made his vote on that basis. No
man can be expected to do more.
I Crater Lake Winter Travel
HAVE you been to Crater lake this winter? Have you
ever been there in the winter time? A trip to the
amazinar blue lake in its setting of snorw at this season is
well worth, the while of anyone, whether he be skier or
just plain sightseer.
Travel to the lake has been somewhat less this winter
than a year ago. At the first of the month, 1940-41
winter visitors numbered about 1800 fewer than on the
corresDondinsr date of the previous year. It is not trood
news that winter travel to the lake has decreased, when
the beauty and snow sports attractions of an area opened
to winter travelers only a few years ago should bring more
people into the park each winter season.
i Park service people attribute the travel statistics
principally to the unfavorable weather on weekends
throughout the past season, and we are inclined to agree
.with that explanation. Even when there has been good
weather through the week, unfavorable developments
have occurred to discourage weekend trips into the moun
tains. ; Further support of this theory is to be seen in the
fact thatv weekday travel has been greater this year, while
.weekend visitation has' fallen off.
? What' we are ; getting around to is a suggestion to
people'of the Midland Empire country that now is a good
time to -visit Crater lake. The weather has changed to
the better,, and a trip to the park will be found invigor
ating, inspiring', and interesting. Furthermore, if there
is a good volume of travel now, it may offset the losses of
the bad weather weekends, and that will be helpful in
convincing: national "park authorities of public apprecia
tion of winter opening of; Crater Lake park.
In response to an inquiry, we give herewith the names
of Oregon senators who voted Wednesday against the
bill which would have given Klamath county a senator of
its own. They are : Best and Ellis of Umatilla ; Booth of
Linn; Fisher of Washington; Franciscovich of Clatsop;
Kenin and Mahoney of Multnomah; Childs of Linn; Mc
Kenna of Multnomah; Stadelman of Wasco; Strayer of
Baker; Wheeler of Xinn and Zurcher of Union. Most of
these senators represent districts of a much smaller popu
lation than the 17th district, which they refused to divide.

U. S. 'Intervention' Hoped by
France To Relax Blockade
VICHY. March 13 (UP)The
Petain government announced
today United States "interven
tion" may bring about a com
promise with Great Britain,
averting the use of French war
ships to convoy foodships
through the British blockade.
An official spokesman said the
Vichy government is highly sat
isfied with American reaction to
Vice-Premier Admiral Francois
Darlan's warning Monday that
unless Britain lifts the food
blockade within "a few weeKs"
he is prepared to use the guns of
the French fleet for convoys.
To "Avert starvation
The possibility is seen the
United States will intervene di
rectly with London and obtain
at least a temporary relaxation
of the blockade whereby 600,000
tons of American wheat can be
shipped to unoccupied France to
avert starvation.
The French government was
said ready to give concrete guar
antees none of the American
wheat or other foodstuffs will
reach the Germans or Italians.
Admiral Darlan, it was said,
intends to take no action toward
bringing the immobilized French
fleet into use to protect food con
voys until Washington's answer
to his request for the 600,000
tons of wheat is received;
The request, Darlan has an
nounced, was transmitted to U.
S. Ambassador Admiral William
D. Leahy Sunday night
The spokesman said the Petain
government of Vichy ii under no
obligations of any kind to furnish
foodstuffs by requisition to Ger
many, hence any supplies reach
ing unoccupied France will re
main here and "cannot possibly
affect Germany's ability to con
tinue the war."
At the same time, the spokes
man said, Germany has no obli
gation either moral or under in
ternational law to feed the peo
ple of unoccupied France.

NEW YORK, March 13 (UP)
Neville Miller, president of the
National Association of Broad

the organization's board of di
rectors will meet here Monday
to "consider the whole question"
of a new contract which again
would make available for gen
eral radio use the music con
trolled by the American Society
of composers, Authors and Pub
lishers. ASCAP controlled music has
not been heard on network and
most Independent stations since
January 1, when a previous con
tract with the composers' society
expired. The broadcasters had
rejected an ASCAP proposal for
a renewed contract. Broadcast
Music, Inc., was established as a
rival to ASCAP and all but

AFTER DRY SPELL
SEATTLE, March 12 (UP)
Unusually warm weather
throughout the Pacific north
west today was accompanied by
an outbreak of forest brush fires,
most of them minor.
The U. S. forest service issued
a forest fire warning, and
weather officials predicted con
tinued sunshine and above-normal
temperatures. Humidity alao
was lower than usual, the forest
service warning said. For the
second successive day, Seattle'
temperatures reached the 70
degrec mark.
Reports of forest fires cen
tered in western Washington and
Oregon. Seventy-five fires were
reported north of Seattle within
48 hours. The largest blaze cov
ered 500 acres In the LInwood
area. Several homes were threat
ened but firefighters ringed the
blazes with water.
Fern Fire
A 700-acre fern fire near Sad
dle Mountain state park In north
western Oregon approached a
reproduction area but the seed
lings were not believed In Im
mediate danger.
A district fire warden's crew
near Forest Grove, Ore., fought
a small fire caused by a cigarette
on the roadside of the old Wilson
river road. It was the only new
outbreak reported in Oregon.
Washington State Forester T.
S. Goodyear said in Olympla 400
men were fighting brush and for

to burn ferns off their land.
A 100-acre fire sprang up on
the Coweeman river and an 80-
acre blaze on Toutle river, both
In Cowlitz county. Clark and
Swamanla counties reported five
fires of about 20 acres average.
Goodyear warned that farmers
would be arrested for setting

quate precautions, although
ordinarily the official permits for
burning must not be secured be

CREOMULSION
for Couehi.Chtit Coldi, Bronchitis
WASHINGTON. March 13
w Mr. Roosovelt has covered
over one of the most hectic strug
gles of his administration by re
cent slrto remarks belittling the
Importance of defense atrlkos so
fur. Actually ha has had more
troublo tha lust few weeks with
that problem than with Hitler or
the lend-lease bill, and Is now on
the verge of a solution.
Once before, about two weeks
ago, a solution fell flat, so It may
yet be unwise to accept too con
fidently the terms of the r
rangement. But as recently as 24
hours ago a final draft of an
executive order contained these
following terms:
Institution of a federal media
tion board to be composed of
four representatives of labor,
four of industry, and three of the
public.
The public representatives to
bo Bernard Bnruch, who would
itct as chairman of the board,
former Governor Lloyd Stark of
Missouri, and a third person of
similar outstanding calibre yet
to be chosen.
The four labor seats to be di
vided equally by AFL and CIO.
Tho board would not be given
compulsory powers and would
act only In tho most difficult de
fense labor cases submitted vol
untarily. It would not, therefore,
Interfere with the conciliation
service of the labor department
or tho labor board.
It moy now be related the Idea
was worked up by the Hlllman
organization, the national Indus
trial conference board, and Un
dersecretary of War Patterson
some weeks ago. Tho adminis
tration chose Dan Tracy, assist
ant secretary1 of labor, to go to
Florida and sell It to tho AFL
at the winter executive council
meeting. In that meeting William
Hutcheson of the carpenters un
ion expressed some apprehen
sions that compulsion might lurk
somewhere In tho background of
the idea, and that the conciliation
service, which has been efficient,
would be supplanted. Upon
Tracy's assurance that both ob
jections would be met In a final
draft, tho council approved the
Idea.
But then tho labor coordina
tor, Mr, Hillman, ran into further
obstacles when he presented It
February 28 to his labor policy
advisory committee, a group of
sixteen labor leaders who meet
with him each week. The CIO
groups were hesitant and some
further doubts were expressed
by AFL delegates. Hit by objec
tions from both sides, the plan
fell flat.
CIO PLAN
Mr. Hlllman went over to see
CIO's president, Phil Murray, af
ter which conference it was even
flatter. Murray was advocating
the CIO industrial cbuncll plan
which went much further than
mere mediation. Ho wanted
council representing manage
ment and labor appointed for
each industry with powers to run
that Industry as it pleased. One
specific duty it would have was
to promote industrial labor bar
gaining arrangements. The auto
mobile industry council, for In
stance, dominated by CIO, could
tell Ford presumably he would
have to take a CIO contract. Ob
viously the plan was designed to
promote CIO organization rather
than labor peace.
HINTS
Mr. Murray was thereupon
called over to the White House
for lunch. After a long argument
he emerged with the hinted sug
gestion that the president would
adopt his plan. Next day Mr.
Roosevelt hinted the CIO would
adopt the administration's medi
ation plan.
But shortly thereafter it be
gan to appear Mr. Roosevelt's
hint was nearer right. The whole
hearted approval of the AFL
was confirmed by direct negotia
tion. Mr. Murray was left with
tho alternative of changing his
mind or taking the responsibility
of letting strikes weaken the
American defense effort,
A prisoner in Concord, N.
C, jail wanted to get out because
he said he was "getting too much
to eat."
