(Special Correspondences-Oregon's United States sena tora are regarded here as two interesting oppo f , sites from the same neck of ' mS' "V- the woods.

Senator Charles L. McNary is suave. quiet, shrewd and diplomatic. We had occasion today to watch both of them on the senate floor, although neither saw much action as we were looking on. Before the senate was the question of appro prlations for the domestic bureau of OWI. The principal speech, while we were In the gallery, was delivered by Senator Millard Tyd ings of Maryland. He defended a committee action in cutting various appropriations for the OWI bureau, such as motion pictures, and elim inating certain other items. It was a good speech. During the discussion, Senator Holman got to his feet once. We are always startled when Senator Holman pcaks. A big man, he has a hitSt, squeaky voice, and invariably we look around to see if it is someone else who is talk ing. . The Oregon senator was objecting to an at tempt to keep OWI in the poster-making busi ness. He declared that private advertising firms are ready and willing to do the poster-making job for carrying on the war effort among civilians. , Senator McNary, on two or three occasions, rose to ask a question or to clarify a point. His subdued voice, which is also in the tenor range, could hardly be heard from the gallery where .we sat Both Oregon solons wore summer suits. Sena tor Holman's hung loosely from his big frame. McNary 's appearance was smooth and fashion able. Both of these Oregon men are effective, each in his own way. Senator McNary's long service and position as minority leader gives him pres tige attained by few in Washington. Senator Holman is more likely to stir up the political whirlwind, and he'll fight that .whirlwind, and anything else that comes along, with flail ing fists. You're pretty sure to see him in action when next year's elections roll around. Uniforms A Plenty : . A LARGE percentage of the people you see in the streets, hotel lobbies, restaurants and other public places in Washington are in tmiform. That includes both men and women. Not only do you see the masculine and femi nine uniforms of the United States armed serv ices, but those of other ot the United Nations. Yesterday, in the National Art gallery, two visiting airmen in strange uniforms passed by, and a lot of whispering among guards and other visitors at the gallery failed to identify the strangers. Occasionally, into our hotel lobby walks a man with service stripes denoting distant com bat action. It always seems to us these men look upon the people about them with just a touch of amused tolerance, such as ona bestows upon a child at play. Here are peace, safety, pleasure. Here are music, idly conversing crowds, women in pretty dresses. These men arc back from places where such things must have teemed like only a vague dream. If they looked upon the rest of us with dis dain, rather than the amused tolerance we have observed, we would hold that feeling perfectly justified. a a a a Traffic WASHINGTON traffic it heavy but never jammed. The streets are wide, and what ever system of traffic control they use here seems to work effectively. The streets are most interesting just after 8 o'clock, when the big government buildings disgorge thousands of workers. They sweep along the streets and across the intersections in colorful masses, the women in llght-hued summer dresses, the men in seer sucker and gabardine. At that hour, crowds pack the street-center islands waiting for buses and street cars, which are jammed to the guards for an hour or two. Taxicab fares are fairly reasonable, and there seem to be about as many taxis as private cars on the streets. a a Servant Problem THE problem of domestic help is about as bad here as at home. This story illustrates: An acquaintance of ours came home from New Orleans, bringing a small bottle of choice perfume for his wife. But after a family conference! about a arrow ing pile of soiled clothes it was decided to pre- sent the gift to the laundress. It's an idea. Some of our KF friends might try it. ' a a a BEING without an automobile, we haven't paid much attention to the parking problem here. But we did drive with a friend to a grocery store. To our surprise, he turned up a steep alley beside the big store and, turning again, drove out on the store's broad roof where many other cars were parked. We got out and did our shopping below.

In all varlutlcs oC industrial war production it is the west that has set the shining exum pie of keeping pence on tlui Job.

The last authoritative word is that they will be taken in October, but. onlv a few weeks ago, the equally author itative official prediction was that they would be drafted In July. Negotiations are afoot whereby they may not be taken at all. The official eoal has been an 8,000.000-man authorities, inclnrlino- the. chairman of the house militarv affair rnmmit. tee, Andrew May, have discovered that fight ing efficiency might be sharply increased if the goal is trimmed to perhaps 5,000,000. The equipment for training, feeding, ship ping abroad, and supplying 8,000,000 men is obviously limited. The available facilities would enable the training and supplying of a 5,000,-000-man force to a far greater degree of effi ciency than the currently announced program would permit. Also, lately, the military men have come to place great reliance on air power. Since the air events of the final portions of the North African campaign, army authorities have come to believe that bombing may do more of the job ahead of us than they expected, a job for which they formerly anticipated the need of foot soldiers. A curtailment of 3,000,000 likewise would meet the manpower situation, as Mr. McNutt has announced exactly 3,300,000 persons must be added to the labor force. Signs are plentiful that the directing officials already are moving toward curtailment. A sena tor has received information that the draft quota for August has been cut from 238,000 men to 150,000. Official flnnouncernenls also hairs Knnn main that the army is releasing the hotels it seized -or training purposes at Miami, Atlantic Chicago, and elsewhere. City, JIM PETRILLO, the musicians union fuehrer, called in reporters a few days back to laugh publicly at John Lewis and the coal strike and to say: "When I call a strike, I call a strike." He certainly does. Petrillo- has conducted the longest strike of the war. Since last August 1, nearly a year ago, he has caused his musicians to strike against any radio transcriptions of music. He was "out of town" (to put it politely) when John R. Steelman's labor conciliation bur eau started seeking him out a few weeks ago, and reappeared only for the press conference to laugh at Lewis, who was getting the public opprobrium which Petrillo equally deserved. Petrillo has starved the transcription companies out of business. He has completely ruined an industry. A labor union boss who does that requires attention even from this administration, and Mr. Petrillo shortly will find himself facing the War Labor Board where his case is bound to go. a a a a Anti-Strike Bill Situation FDR'S veto of the Smith-Connally war meas ure against strikes has left a situation in congress which will be a long time mending. He did not exactly promise the senate and house leaders that he would accept their meas ure, but two unreported Incidents led Senator Connally and others to believe that he would. His left-hand man, War Mobilizer Byrnes, is quoted by house members as having said to them that the measure was acceptable, even with the house amendments. (The provisions to which the president especially objected in his veto message). Also, at the reception of a foreign official at the White House, the president volunteered the statement that "your conferees have been doing a good job." In aftermath, these words sound somewhat ambiguous, as Mr. Roosevelt could have been referring to Connally's unsuccessful effort at the time to eliminate the house amend ments from the measure. Nevertheless, bad personal feelings have been left and these will show In future congressional actions for a long time to come. Br DR. THOMAS D. MASTERS Our likes and dislikes of food too frequently are based on habit. The war effort demands a' healthy, vigorous population and points out the nutritional defic iencies that have been permitted to endure through times of peace. Foods build our bodies and give us energy for the work we must do. If the diet is inade quate, then our bodies suffer and our energy is impairedTTt Is Important that during times of war habits of nutrition will be established that will carry on in to the future habits based on a modern science of nutrition. DONT SKIP BREAKFAST One of the worst habits is the elimination of breakfast or the reduction of the meal to a cup of coffee and a doughnut or the equivalent. A proper proportion of the day's supply of nutrition (about one-third) should be tak en with the breakfast and, when it is not, the responsibility falls on the other two meals. Frequently, the noonday meal is also reduced, and this reduc tion means that practically the whole day's supply of nutriment must be taken in at the evening meal. Increased fatigue is the obvious result of a full day's work being done without taking in food to replace the energy while the latter . Is being expended. One reason for the desire for carbohydrate foods such as soda pop or candy bars in the late morning and afternoon is to make up for a lack of food at breakfast and luncheon. The substitution is a bad one because candy bars and soda pop lack nutrition and probably, after a OBITUARIES ARDEN EDGAR FUGATE Funeral services for the late Arden Edgar Fugate who passed away in this city on Thursday.

Weight: 8 pound. period of time, contribute To ad ditional weariness. If the breakfast is to contri bute its full share of tho nutri ents required daily, it must be given the time and attention of a real meal. The protein require ment can be met with an egg or two, or the equivalent in meat. Protein will "stick to the ribs" and, because of its slow 'conver sion into energy, its effect Is pro longed. Breakfast foods made from whole grain or bread made from enriched flour will provide the B-complcx vitamins and starch for calorics. If toast is substituted, it must be recalled that heavy toasting destroys the vitamins. FAT PROVIDES CALORIES Fat is desirable, too, because it retards the emptying of the stomach and, therefore, slows the passage of sugars into the blood.-It also carries the fat soluble vitamins and provides high caloric value. Butter or en riched oleomargarine, milk and cream are the most suitable sources for fat in the breakfast menu. Milk is often eliminated from breakfast in favor of coffee, but the trade is a poor one. The nu trient value of coffee is nil, and milk has practically everything. There is no objection to both, of course. Vitamin C and some sugar are provided and the day pleasantly Initiated with fruit. The whole fruit is probably more desirable than just tho juice for reasons of greater bulk. The cost of such a breakfast is somewhat higher than that of a scanty one, but tho returns in increased good health and en ergy will more than compensate. The substitution of a candy bar or soda pop proves, in the end, to be more expensive. ft. warfZyrg-g 1 It's Up to the West . . . How big would a square box be, allowing for an inch thick ness in each of the six sides, made of 15 billion board feet of lumber? Yes, 15 billion board feet how big a square box would It make? That's the 1943 war order for box and crating lumber. The war production board has thrown a far heavier part of the order on western loggers and lumber workers than our section of the timber Industry could normally be expected to carry. The pine mills arc, of course, always large producers of box lumber. The fir mills, however, have never been set up for this business, but now they must take it. The south, the northeast and the lake states can't fill the bill for box lumber that the govern ment has put up to them. So some of their proper share has been put up to us, and seeming ly without any doubts that the western fir and pine industries can make good. Well, why not? Since Pearl Harbor what large regional in dustrial group has made a bet ter war record under the tough est imaginable handicaps, than the western timber industries? Where is there a brighter record of a solid production front ot managers and workers? Of war orders shipped and delivered on time? So western loggers are re warded with a yet bigger and tougher war job. That's how it bits E MAKE ARRANGEMENTS FDR NEW ROUTE CHUNGKING. July 5 (P) Chinese Minister of Communica tions Tseng Yang-Fu announced today that arrangements have been concluded for a now sup ply route to China via Iran and the Turkcsian-Sibcrian railway and expressed hope that ship ments in volume "will commence in the nearest future." The announcement came just two days beforo the sixth anni versary of the start of the war with Japan and found China struggling to Increase "shipments of vital war materials from al lied nations. At the present time, Tseng pointed out, about 10,500 of the 12,500 miles of railways in China are in the hands of tho Japanese. In her wartime transportation, he said, China has been guided by two general policies to keep open by all means the Interna tional supply routes and to de velop at full speed a system of transportation and communica tion to tho interior. The heaviest blow to China in the struggle to maintain interna- rtional communications was the loss of Burma, but two supply routes have been available one from India by air and the other from India by land via Iran and Russia. Tseng expressed belief thttt the air route from India would be strengthened, but said that "before Burma is recaptured heavy military supplies can not be brought in." i?TfiTTriTnTTTn:iTMnf!:iiirn;iHili,Trrfiuiii:sinrTfniirifljifi :ir "I': . ; ''4 n i ;m r, Tii'ii ii i i, i . i .atrw :t m r.wnr-iw. vr m i r m in r m i i : , Vliitlng Hare Mr, and Mrs. Robert O.

Five or six years ago eastern newspapers and magazines were packed with sensational articles that pictured the people of the west, Including Callfornlans, as on the run for revolution and worse. The pieces were all writ ten by literary gents who for the most part were visiting us for the first time. Not one, to my knowledge, spent more than a week tn the region on an as signment. Typical was an 1. g. named Alva Johnston, whose Saturday Evening Post article, Seattle's One-Man Revolution, published early in 1937, still stands as the most amazing miscellany of misinformation ever printed about the west. It was in that article that the term "skidrow," first appeared. Johnston apparently got his done during three days spent in a Seattle hotel room. Seattleltes say he did it with mirrors. Any how, in his article "skldroad" was distorted into , "skidrow," and was moved from Main street and Yesler Way area to the waterfront. Now you sec "skidrow" applied to every city's rough and rowdy district, in news stories and articles. Well, who cares? To get back to the point, a mob of ignorant and irresponsi ble eastern Journalists built up an entirely false picture ot the west in the depression years, out of the strikes, the "ham and-eggs" movement, and so on manifestations which we were The Klamath Nawt July 1, 1933 Banquet given for big Cali fornia caravan by Shasta-Cascade Wonderland association al Pelican grill with Bert Hall as toastmastcr. a a a Rev.
