MALCOLM ErLEY Managing Editor opposed News Behind 4he News t to the Idea if anybody has it. aJ ararawdgai CVfMlaaivtl EPLEY Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY ' , THERE is a great deal of resolving these days against permitting Japanese evacuees in the relocation camps to return to the coastal , , . ,, . . areas. Whether there Is any intention of releasing them here we do not know, but it i , v is clear t"8' vast majority jfpr.-l -aj ot Uie people on me x-bcuh; a. i .,! coasi are viguruuMy It is not clear just what has aroused suspicion that the governmental authorities are thinking about sending the evacuees back Into the coast defense districts. Several of ficials have recently been quoted to the effect that there Is no present plan for such a move. But the resolutions, the public statements and the editorial declarations continue In un abated volume. This may be due in part to a general belief that the governmental authorities have been too lenient and solicitous in handling the evacuee program, and therefore may be expected next to turn the evacuees loose on the coast. And then, again, it may be because people have learned to look but when some federal official says the government doesn't intend to do something. In the rationing field, that's been a sure-fire Indication that the government was about to do the thing it said it wasn't going to do. We!!, We Agree ANYHOW, those who are convinced it would be a major mistake to release the evacuees are perfectly within their rights In saying so, and this column agrees with them 100 per cent. The two principal and obvious reasons why it would be a mistake are (1) disloyal Japanese might get loose and ;(2) there is too much ' strong sentiment against Japanese on the coast to permit any of them to be at large in this area so long as the war lasts. Compared with conditions at the time of the last war, American people have been remark ably tolerant in their attitude toward persons of direct German and Italian descent living in this country, even aliens. But In the midst of this tolerance, there is bitter feeling against the Japanese. This is something that troubles loyal evacuees and their sympathizers. But the Japanese are, after all, a different race and a different color, whereas a vast ma jority of American citizens trace their lineage to Europe. Another major reason is summed up in two words: Pearl Harbor. Pearl Harbor was a great triumph for Jap anese skill, shrewdness and double dealing. It waa humiliation to the United States. But history, we "think, will show that the Japanese dealt themselves' a terrible blow at Pearl Har bor. For . Pearl Harbor : created an undying" hatred against Japan and the Japanese among . people which eventually will have the! power to crush Japan, and when that day comes, they will not spare the horses. V - ; The evacuee of Japanese descent, who feels the brunt of . the sentiment against ' his race here, knows something already of history's place for Pearl Harbor. - Any realistic view of the present situation on the coast will recognize this feeling against the Japanese. That it makes the return of evacuees to the coastal areas inadvisable is patent, and inadvisable Is hardly word enough -to tell the story. Sagebrush Fraternity SOME time ago, we made a remark here to tht effect that "if Klamath county doesn't come out first in any kind of competition, we want Lake county to win." This comment, our clipping service reveals, . has been reprinted in a number of Oregon papers. Salem Statesman calls it: "A friendly " bow to the east, with an inferred slap to the neighbor on the west, Jackson county and Med ford, winner of football games," .Why bring that up? asks Art Perry, in the Medford Mail-Tribune. Why, indeed, when Medford didn't win the last game it played that made any difference to us? . Fact is, of course, we didn't infer a slap at either Jackson, on the west, or Deschutes, on the north. Lake and Klamath counties are one in many particulars, not the least important (to us) being that a lot of people in both counties subscribe to The Herald and News. Furthermore, we know more people per hundred in Lake county than any other county In Oregon, and we like very dad-gummed one of them we know. That's it. If Klamath county can't come out on top, we want Lake county to be there. Better yet, let's have 'em both up ' there to gether. Good Example AND while we're on the subject of Lake county, "Bummer" Cooper called us on the phone today to report that every industrial operation in Lake county is 10 per cent or better on payroll deductions. At the Elks Flag Day event over there, a main feature was the handing out of 10 per cent flags to all of these groups. It proved to be quite a display of banners. The Lake county example may well be emulated here. Our industries, for a while, ajipped back from the excellent position they attained in payroll deductions last fair and winter, but they're beginning to climb , back again, in spite of taxes and tax confusion. ' - Sine Ben Hur Lampman, the Oregonlan's specialist in nostalgia, came out last week with a sweet piece about sweetbrier, we find in our selves changed attitude toward the wild rose that insists on growing In our hillside garden. We've trimmed it up a bit, given it some ot our precious allotment ot irrigation water, and point out to visitors the pink single blossoms that dot its thick and prickly greenery. -The power of the pen again. SIDE GLANCES i. ... n been making florid speeches about the Smith-Connally anti-strike bill, but no. one has been advertising what is in the bill. CIO's Mr. Murray was heard in every radio loud-speaker saying it "would cripple the war" and "destroy worker se curity." A.F. of L.'s Bill Green is mimeographing almost daily the contention that it is "fas cism" and would "destroy the workers' war morale." If any of these accusations MALLON were correct the legislation was certainly bad, because no one wants such results. But Messrs. Murray and Greet) are unspeciflc in their charges. They do not point to any provisions of the bill, to justify such conclusions. The bill does not prevent strikes. It is not a permanent bill. The machinery which it hands the president would be dismantled automatical ly six months after the war is ended. Every rule and regulation it proposes would then end, excepting perhaps the one denying unions the right to make presidential and con gressional campaign contributions. But this possibly permanent provision also directs that no bank or corporation make any contribution . to any political campaign, even the state and local election disputes to which the labor unions could continue to contribute. ' "titL W At "ffAVW m ' W m it 4lpH M com toei gv wa cronce, wo. t. m. era, u. a iat. oar. -'7 "Mom, which wns the most important in catching Pop personality or ninkeuu?" i Limited in Scope 'HIS new Smith-Connally effort to hinder strikes would not be applicable, further more, unless the president, the labor concilia tion service, or the war labor board found that the war effort was being seriously impeded. It is further restricted to essential war manu facturing. In such plants the labor leaders would be required to notify the war labor board of impending labor difficulties, or the concilia tion service would notify the board of threat ened strike. On the thirtieth day thereafter, the workers of the plant would hold a secret election on whether or not they would strike. If they voted to strike, they could. Beyond this in vital cases, the president could stop' a strike by taking over the plant, but even then the workers could get a wage : increase or other new privileges out of the war labor board. If the president takes over the plant, the labor leaders (no Individual) would then be prevented from promoting a strike under penalty of a $5000 fine or two . years Imprisonment. ; Briefly, that is all there Is to it. 'The bill is moderate in tone and, In one place, even i admonishes the board "to be fair to both the employer and the employee." Obviously, no one can get much "fascism,'' "cripple the war," . or "breakdown of workers' morale" out of the provisions of the legislation. Why then are Murray and Green so excited? Well, one excuse may be that this is the first amendment to the Wagner act or any of the predominately pro-union bills enacted since the start of the New Deal. All previous legislation of this era has been dictated by labor without regard to the Interests of anyone else. Perhaps they fear that this first correction of their newly established code, though merely for the purposes of war, will lead to further efforts to correct equally gross . abuses which they have been unable or unwilling to correct in their own ranks (racketeering, secrecy of labor treasuries, etc.) - - No dominating political group likes to let anything pass concerning it unless by. Its direc tion. They are all jealous of their controlling "perogatives" even In matters which are. not essential. ' , These considerations must have led Green and Murray to make far more out of the bill in propaganda efforts to get the president to veto it, than seems justified by the provisions of the legislation. Control Machinery THEY still control the labor board and all the government labor machinery here and could Just as easily have espoused this bill them selves, as far as any of their basic rights ap pear (to an unconcerned observer) to be in volved. The course they chose suggests they do not Intend to give an inch anywhere, and will not assume, or let the government assume, the responsibility (which is primarily theirs) of cor recting the most flagrant and unpatriotic crimes against the public welfare in their own ranks. They did not stop strikes themselves, do not want the government to stop them in time of war. They will not purge their ranks of racketeers and will not let anyone else purge them. They will not open their books to treas ury Inspection, will fight any such legislation, A man generally directs the nature of tactics used by his opposition against him through the course he himself assumes. If his charges are made fairly and In moderation, he requires his opposition to assume the same fair tone. If he is wild, relentless; un-moving, he inspires such tactics by. his opposition. Therefore, it looks like a long war on the domestic labor front' ' WAR KITCHEN COUNTY BOARD RETURN SOUGH PLAN WEEK-LONG MENU OF UNRATIONED FOpDS By GAYNOR MADDOX ' Your victory gardens and gro cery shops are alive with fresh vegetables.. Use them freely in your menus now that they are so reasonable. Use bakers bread plentifully, too enriched white, whole wheat, and whole rye. Bakers bread saves your own supply of rationed shortening and when you eat it at every meal, you are taking advantage of our vast wheat crop one of our guarantees that Americans will win the war. Try a week of protein foods that are not rationed. Use chick en, rabbit, eggs, peanuts, soy beans, dried beans and fish. Use your red points to lay in a sup ply of cooking oils and shorten ing, margarine, canned fish and canned meats for hot-day pic nics. If you serve garden fruits, ber ries and vegetables, including large bowls of mixed salad greens, and many kinds of wholesome bread, plus the non rationed protein foods listed, you'll find that going without meat for a week is an agreeable experiment in wartime economy. For workers sandwiches, try these lively spreads. Basic Cheese Spread (Makes 11 cups spread) One-half pound cottage cheese, 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, i tea spoon salt. ' Blend cheese and mayonnaise until creamy; season with salt. Keeps 2 to 3 weeks when stored, covered, in refrigerator, Slaw Spread Add to basic cheese spread i cup finely chopped raw cabbage, 3 tablespoons chopped salted pea nuts, 2 tablespoons chill sauce. Spicy Fish Add to basic cheese spread 1 teaspoon fish paste, I cup finely diced celery, i teaspoon curry powder, 1 tablespoon minced parsley. TOMORROW'S MENU (Eat the Basic 7 Every Day) BREAKFAST Tomato and canned grapefruit juice, whole wheat cereal, corn muffins, marmalade, tea, milk. LUNCHEON Bean soup, egg relish sandwiches, cab bage and apple salad, milk, milk. DINNER Yankee bean and vegetable soup, Spanish ome let, bakery hard rolls, - but i ter or 'fortified ' margarine, watercress, lettuce, celery and parsley salad, lattice rhubarb pie, tea, milk.

Although naval officials de clared the contract was designed to protect and conserve naval petroleum lands In the reserve, the justice department position was to the contrary. Elliott suggested to the com mittee that 't go to Elk Hills, in California, to study the situa tion, "on the ground," end Chair man Peterson (D'Fla.), said he thought at least a subcommittee should go. Llttell told the committee he (Continued From Page One) gresslonal sanction soimht to temper the restriction with a provision which would establish a celling on the payments. Still opposed to the whole Idea however was Chairman Geor (D-Ga.) of the senate finance com mittee who criticized subsidy payments as "doubly Inflation ary," and "a most Inadvisable program." Bees Pressure "From the congressional point of view," the Georgian declared, "wo know how Impossible It will bo to resist the demand for subsidies from everybody feeling the pinch of price control." George expressed belief that tho administration mny have to abandon rigid price control and wage ceilings to avoid Interfer ence with production. He sug gested possibility of setting a new "over-all celling" which, he added, would call for adjuu merits In wages and prlres.
