Kaq ftandaco, X York, atUa, Cbicarx PorUaad, U MALCOLM KPLEY Managing Editor Li Aews BeAncf the News Br PAUL MAXLON WASHINGTON, June 22 Wendell Willkie, who publicly feared at Oberlin two weeks ago that he "may be nominated in spite of my sell, u apparently pianning, to leave little to chance. Here lately, he let congres iional friends know he intends to tour and speak in most states, north of the Mason Dixon line in the next five months. This put his active onnriirincv for tho 1044 niwti. i- i i Jf jj dential nomination in a semi J official status, lacking only a MAXLON , His side of the story Is that . he is campaigning to prevent nomination of an isolationist on the republican ticket. Any man on his side of that intangible fence will be sat isfactory to him, (meaning probably ex-Governor Stassen of Minnesota, who is the only mention able republican identified in that camp.) Least of all, he likes Governor Bricker of Ohio, for reasons not fully apparent, and, sur prisingly, he is not equally disinclined toward Governor Dewey of New York. This at any rate is the way official republican leaders now understand the Willkie position and purposes. Rising far higher than Willkie in congres sional viewpoint, however, are both Dewey and General MacArthur. The leaders realize Dewey will not be a candidate, will have to be drafted, but believe this could be arranged. The MacArthur candidacy is largely the per sonal inspiration of Senator Vandenberg of Michigan, who does not know whether Mac Arthur will accept, but believes the war will still be on next June, and supposes that the out standing superior American military director naturally wUl be demanded. o a a o French Politics NO American mind can understand French politicians. They can not even understand ,each other. After years of dealing with General DeGaulle, the allied political leaders find it hard to describe who and what he is in the cur rent situation. Newly circulated stories try to explain his political movement as communistic. It is true the communists are strongly behind his pro- gram. The leader of the red underground in France, who escaped to London, has been wel comed into the Fighting French committee there. Also, the agreement which Moscow made with DeGaulle's group, backs him much further than, either the British or we have gone. In a , joint communique dated September 28,' 1942, Moscow recognized the DeGaulle group as rep resenting "the whole of the citizens and terri tories of France who do not accept capitula tion," and "the only one qualified to organize the participation in the war of French citizens and territories." The British agreement merely recognized him as representing "the Free French," and prom ised to treat with him. But already the com munists' are having trouble with him, their Tunisian deputies having denounced him as well as Gen. Giraud. Far more important (to understand the curi ous news from the French political front), De Gaulle is a political Individualist, who seems entirely favorable only to DeGaulle. One emi nent authority here characterizes him as "the French Joan D'Arc," but no doubt he would 'prefer to be called Napoleon. ooo Truth Lacking AS these symptoms have become clear In re cent developments, DeGaulle's popularity here has declined even among the liberals who espoused his cause despite his monarchist back ground, probably because there was no on else, A prominent liberal Washington correspon dent of a pinkishly dazed New York newspaper wrote a series of stories on the DeGaulle situa tion from a truthful standpoint after his news paper had sent him to Africa. He found the administration position was not so far wrong When he returned, he discovered his stories had not been printed and thereupon resigned. Apparently, the liberals are not yet ready for the truth about DeGaulle, but art getting closer to it. The War Today (While DeWitt Mackenzie is on vacation, this daily column is being written by Max Hill, for mer chief of the Associated Press bureau in Tokyo). By MAX HILL aNUR problems at home accented recently by work stoppages and riots are the best propaganda the axis has to use against us. They are doing their battles with our troops. Neither the Germans nor the Japanese have vic tories with which to bolster home morale. But through our troubles at home their props gandists are able to encourage the rank and file to ever more desperate efforts. It is unfortunate that we continue to feed them ready-made criticism because in the long run the cost is going to be in American lives and materials. Just prior to the war, a minor strike or dis turbance in America was worth between one and two columns or copy in a Tokyo news paper. The basic theme was that we were di vided; that we could not work as a unit. The situation has not changed. ' Japans greatest strength is at home. Her people have been taught that they must cooper ate willingly that the life of the individual is as nothing compared with the state and emperor. Not many months before the war, prepara tions were being made in Tokyo for air raid shelters. The program was dropped. It was de cided that every man, woman and child in Tokyo's 7,000,000 inhabitants should stay above ground and fight fires should there be a raid. This is the sort of philosophy we are com batting. The war itself against such determined peoples is difficult enough without a divided home front. o o a Russian Trump Card IT cannot be that Russia does not know the I plans of her allies, Great Britain and the United States. Therefore, the special communique broadcast from Moscow must be considered as a trump cara m we propaganda campaign which the United Nations now are waging so successfully against the Germans. She asks for a second front, "without which victory Is impossible." Hitler was right so many times in his strategy it must have seemed to him that he could not be wrong. But this miscalculation of Russia's strength has sapped the life blood of Germany to a point that it has become our margin of eventual victory. - The war in Russia would seem to be now in a sort of stalemate; but two long and difficult years have passed since Hitler announced his determination to crush the Russians, perhaps in six weeks. If Russia had not had her magnificent and undisclosed strength, the world most likely would now be at the mercy of Hitler, Tojo and Mussolini. Her contribution is so great that she is more than justified in her present appeal for a second front in Europe. Russia's losses have been se vere, but they have not weakened her as much as those suffered by nazl Germany. With the Men on Guard In January of 1942 the Oregon state liuard was formed through an edict of the governor. It was not until January of 1943 that the edict became a state law. The Oregon State Guard was to take the place of the Na tional Guard until the end of the war. Major van Fleet, who saw service in the last war, was among the first in this area to forsee the need of a home de fense unit, so he organized the Klamath Guard which-was later merged into the State Guard as Company C 19th Bn, Through the efforts of Major van rieei, company u nas pros pered and units have been formed in Lakeview and Merrill so he has justly earned his gold leaves and post of battalion commander with headquarters at the Klamath Falls armory. The company at Chiloquin is also un der his command. Since the major's promotion. 1st Lt. Ira C. Heath has taken over as captain of Company C. Lt. Weaver is now the 1st Lt. and Bob Larson has received his gold bars to fill Weavers' old post. Staff Sgt Borne has moved into the battalion headquarters, and John Shaw has taken his place as the company clerk. With the rapid progress made by Company C in the past few months many new officers have necessarily been made. " Among the last eroUD to Gain their stripes were: Don Barber, W. G. t-ooiey, G. F. Durkee, G. B. My ers. S. E. Tomkins, and G. R. Hobbs were made sergeants. F, M. Kolkow, W. D. Meyers, C. L, Price, E. L. Dewitt, S. A. Pickett, R. K. Hill were made corporals, Sergeant R. L. Knuth became 1st Sergeant. Company C meets every Wed nesday evening from 7:30 until 10 o'clock. Those who might be interested in joining the Guard are invited to come down to the armory on any drill night. The company clerk or any officer will be glad to answer your questions, and show you what we have to offer. If you are between sixteen and sixty, have a rifle, and are a citizen of the United States you are eligible. J. A. Shaw, Co. Clerk Co. C 19th Bn. Oregon State Guard. Hildebrand Mr. and Mrs. S. K.

Painless Childbirth Post-War Medical Goal Dr. Masttrs' Health Column By DR. THOMAS D. MASTERS Written for NEA The birth rate is reaching new peaks, and it is natural that much publicity should be given to the new technique of painless childbirth. The method, which was announced early this year, has for some time undergone in tensive study in a number of places, has been found to be safe in all instances and successful in most. The publicity has, however. over-reached the teaching of the technique and the possibilities of its spread. Many want it, and few can have it, because it will take time to train men to be ex pert in its use, and it will take more time to arrange the details for the practical application of the. technique in the hospitals over the country. NERVES ARE BLOCKED The technique does not alter in any way the established prin-J eiples of good obstetrical care. They are still essential. It calls special, flexible needle left in place as long as labor lasts. Throughout all this period, the progress of the anaesthesia must be watched by a trained anaes thetist. Few hospitals are now staffed by anaesthetists trained in the procedure, and even fewer have enough anaesthetists to watch each woman in the hospi tal throughout the period of la- Dor, The problem of accomplishing painless childbirth may now be said to be fairly well solved, but the numerous difficult problems, involved in making it available. generally remain. Painless child birth is in the same singe as post war aviation or prefabricated housing. MOTHER IS CONSCIOUS The advantage of this new method of analgesia, in addition to the obliteration of pain, is that the mother is conscious and ca pable of co-operating a factor which frequently shortens the duration of labor. The child is Tolling The Editor Lallan erimM here mual net M mora than aal amae in fanath, mual too writ. Ian lankly on ONI llDI al I ha paper vr, ana iihmi oa aimed.

This method consists of blocking the nerves that carry impulses of pain by lo cal anaesthetic agents in a man ner similar to the more familiar nerve-block used by the dentist. The period of obliteration of pain from a single injection of the anaesthetic is about an hour. Though this is satisfactory for short, minor operations. It is of little use during childbirth, and the new technique provides for repeated Injections, given as fre quently as needed, through a cedure, a factor which is a dis advantage in other types of an aesthesia. The notion that pain enhances maternal love has been demon strated by several hundred moth-' ers. so far delivered under the new procedure to be an errone ous rationalization of a sequence of events which could not be suc cessfully altered heretofore.

ISLAND CHRISTIANITY KLAMATH FALLS, Ore., (To the Editor) "Me frlendlyl Mo Christianl" These words greeted one of our men whose plane had been shot down in the southern Solo mons and who had ventured to the shore of one of the islands, and when he saw two men stand Ing on the shore and waving lurge knives, felt that his time had come, but there was nothins to do but put his rubber bout to shore where he was reassured and treated kindly by the na tives. This is not an unusual occur rence but our men are often cared for down there by these kindly people. A hundred years ago, a ship wrecked sailor would have boon regarded as so much beef, but what a change has takon place, and we may well wonder what the secret is. Well, many years ago, churches who believed Josua' words, "Go Ye into all the world and preach tho gospel" reasoned that those poor people occupied a part of the world where the gospel must be preached and they sacrificed home comforts and nettled among those wild cannibals. So they lost their lives, but others took their place, persisted, and established schools and churches and taught sanitation and trans lated the Bible and other books spoken there, so now they have written languages and are begin ning to do their own publishing. 1 well remember back in 1UUU a ship was built to carry on mis sion work down thero and was named tho Pitcairn, and that in terest was intensified when John Chilton, a boy from our home community was chosen as cabin boy, and when the ship returned at the end of each trip at the end of about two years, we would have a happy time looking over the curios and listening to John's dramatic stories. Now we are seeing the fruit of the sacrifice of those missionar ies and a sufficient number of them have so changed that exert a moulding influence over those who have not identified them selves as Christian. That same kind of work Is be ing carried on in all these island groups such as FIJI, Samoa, New Guinea and Borneo. The church I am a member of is carrying on its work In 850 languages, and other societies are doing a good work too, so our boys who arc so unfortunate as to be cast on the shore among those dark-skinned people can well be thankful that the natives greet them with "Me friendly! Me Christian!" F. 0. CHITWOOD. DOE QUESTION . LAKEVIEW, Ore. (To the Ed itor) I'd almost ratller do any thing than kill an old doc deer that had been producing twin fawns for several years. Any how my stomach Just could not hold the meat down and I doubt If my china clippers would be shurn enough to masticate any thing but tho hamburger. Did you ever see a he-man on his return to camp after accidental ly killing a doe looked about like a sheep-killing dog. Did you ever sea any country even the wilds of northern Can ada, utter it had been opened up with passuble roads where thero was any surplus of game animals? Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota, formerly great game lunds, went by the boards on the advent of roads and auto mobiles. They now protect their gamo and grow fish In a big way for the fishermen. As to iorage you can take a drive through the semi-desert Warner valley country or through any timbered area In Lako county right now and easily soo what a very great surplus wo have after a wet winter and spring. Thanks to the war the short- ago of rubber, tho shortage of gus, tho shortage of bullets and tho shortage of tho type of man willing to kill producing dors that are not fit to eat alter suckling tho usual twin fawns, a lot of the 6000 does may survive. Now we come to the boys who ore doing the fighting for us stay-at-homcn. Do you want those who return to have tnoir rightful share of the hunting or do you want to proceed wmi a disgraceful slaughter of docs whose meat is not fit to rut, every sportsmnn knows? Let's put Frank Wire on the spot where he belongs. If he did not foster such a doe program as 1 now before us there would be no worry for the right-minded sportsman. GEORGE A. STEPHENSON.
