They consider them impra c 1 1 c a 1, - purely an unattainable dream of idealistic theorists. But, if you will think care fully, you will realize that the Four Freedoms are a national MUST. Simply because, after we have won the war, any na tion which, for a time, suffers from repression of speech or of religion, or which feels fear of some neighbor nation, or which suffers from want during a lean year or two in that nation, as sure as the sun shines, there is bound to arise some power-hungry leader who will gel up on his soap box and proclaim that, if the people will only follow his leadership, he will lead them through a successful war which will right their wrongs. On the other hand, when all nations shall enjoy the Four Freedoms, no rabble rouser can find anything to get his teeth into. A contented people cannot be roused to grab their guns and to go to feuding with their neighbors. If war all over the world is to end, all the world must have the Four Freedoms.. Otherwise, we shall know peace only in the brief intervals between wars. Next Monday Mr. Whltlock of the Earl Whitlock Funeral home will comment on "That Viewpoint That All Is Sweet PRODUCTION Cannery Workers Get Pay Increases SEATTLE, June 21 (AP George B.

"The challenged orders," Stone said, "were defense measures for the avowed purpose of safe guarding the military area in question, at a time of threatened air raids and invasion by the Japanese forces, from the danger of sabotage, and espionage." Challengers Told Those challenging the regula tions were Gordon Kiyoshi Hira bayashi of Seattle and Minora Yasul of Hood River, Ore. Hira bayashi, a senior at the Univer sity of Washington at the time of his arrest was sentenced to three months' imprisonment for violating the curfew regulation and for failing to report to an evacuation center. Yasul, a graduate of the University of Oregon, was sentenced to one year's imprisonment and fined $5000 for violating the curfew regulation. .Approximately 70,000 Ameri can citizens of Japanese ancestry were said to have been evacuat ed from their homes under the orders.

DEWEY FAVORS HOG KILLING IN WEST COLUMBUS. O., June 21 (JP) Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New York asserted today he favored killing western hogs if that would provide greater grain feed for eastern dairy cattle and poultry. His remark came in a discus sion with two western govern ors at the opening session of the Annual Governors confer ence, and followed an assertion by Dewey that unless more grain became available in the east milk rationing might be come necessary by October. Gov. Henry F. Schreicher of Indiana told Dewey his state had more hogs than ever before and the grain was necessary to feed them.

Davis found himself today In a position somewhat similar to that occupied by Secretary of Agriculture Claude R. Wlrkard before he lost full control over the war food program, Davis is at odds with tlis White House that Is, economic advisors of President Roosevelt over policies affecting food, particularly price policies. Dlffarencaa Sharp differences over farm price policies between Wlckard, on the one hand, and James r. Byrnes, then economic stablllia. lion director, and Price Admin, istrutor Prentiss Brown, on tlx other, marked rclullons between the trio In the weeks preceding Davis' appointment to the food post lust March. Aides said Davis believed thit present government food pro gruin Is largely unworkable and In dunger of collapse union steps aro taken to eliminate di vided authority and to allow more flexibility In price control, Although bearing public re sponsibility for the food pro gram, Davis is said to be con cerned over tho tendency of of ficials connected with other agencies particularly the offu-a of war mobilization and the of fice of economic stabilization to Ignore him in making food policies. Aides cited decisions In employ subsidies in rolling back food prices. Centralised Agency They said also that other agen cies were prone to issue unrn forcrable price, production and distribution orders which were out of line with the true situa tion or which did not have tha sympathy of producers, proces sors or distributors. Davis was said to feel that there should be a centralized food agency with broad powers to make changes from day to day, If need be, In food produc tion to fit supply and demands. Associates of Davis said there had been an Inclination at the White House to oppose any price changes lest they be seized upon as an argument for higher wages.
