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

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.

"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' '

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.
