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.

Safe. 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

for the addition of a new method j in no way affected by the pro
of anaesthesia. 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!"

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.
