WASHINGTON, D. C, (Special Correspond
ence) This is written in the Wash
ington office of The Associated Press, one of
the nerve centers of the great news system
that serves papers like ours throughout the
j. ....-.-.- country and in all parts of
the world.

I Bit I I office around us.
Y II This place is a mass of
c&ftm aWi desks, tyoewriters and chatter-
EPLEY ing teletype machines, much
like any large newspaper office. It is on the
third story of the Washington Star building,
and despite many open windows it is very
warm. Everything in Washington is very
warm, except the inside spots here and there
which are air-conditioned. Even there, we
perspire.
Old Friends
WE have renewed here a number of pleas
ant associations.
Russell Andrews, one-time dean of boys at
Klamath Union high school, who has many
friends in Klamath Falls, is with the bureau
of the budget here. Not. long ago he was a
member of a commission which went to
Bolivia to make a study of that South American
country's government and make a recommenda
tion of reorganization and reforms.
The commission's proposal, he avers, was a
good one, but it was turned down by the
Bolivian congress. It was probably too good
for Latin American politics.
Palmer Hoyt, publisher of The Oregonian,
is here getting started in his new job as head
of the domestic bureau of OWI.
Before he took over, the house had voted
not to continue the appropriation for his bureau,
and Mr. Hoyt doesn't know at the moment if
he is here for a visit or to stay awhile. The
matter has been up for additional hearing, the
outcome of which will determine whether Mr.
Hoyt, an able journalist who should do an
excellent job, will stay on in Washington.
News Behind the News
Br PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, July 6 The successful
American landings in New Georgia and
the vaguely defined MacArthur moves in New
Guinea were planned as the first steps in a
real pincers move to entrap
the big Jap base at Rabaul.
This base ordinarily has 45 to
75 ships at anchorage every
day, and is the second largest
Jap base (next to Truk) in
all the South Pacific. It is the
core of South Pacific Japanese
power, has three airfields, and
is the re-shipping point, feed'
ing all the smaller strongholds,
The immediate MacArthur
mallow objective was the New Guinea
peninsult jutting out into the sea north of Lae
and Salamaua, closest New Guinea point to
Rabaul. The immediate purpose at the other
side of the pincers in New Georgia was to
eradicate the substantial Japanese force in the
central Solomons, estimated as high as 30,000
men. In addition, the Japs are supposed to
have 8000 to 12,000 in the northern islands, a
total of possibly 50,000 in all the Solomons
area.
While these are hardly sensational objectives,
if they were to be won within a reasonable
time, the vital Rabaul was doomed.
A Yen for Home
. t
A MOMENT after we had left an elevator
in the lobby of the Hotel Willard, a man
stepped out of the adjoining elevator and called
our name.
It was Willis Mahoney, former mayor of
Klamath Falls, who made political history in
v our town and in Oregon. Willis is settled in
Washington, representing various firms in Ore
gon and elsewhere in their relations with fed
eral agencies.
He looks prosperous, but talking to him at
breakfast this morning we detected a yen for
Oregon and Oregon politics. His son, Dan, is
a lieutenant in the air corps and crew chief
on a plane. His daughter, Mary Jane, is mar
ried and is living in Astoria where she is run
ning her service man husband's insurance busi
ness (and doing a good job of it.)
Ted Gamble, former Portland theatre oper
ator, is here doing an important job with the
treasury department. Captain Lawrence Slater,
Klamath insurance man, is supposed to be still
in town, but we haven't found him. Ralph
Cake, republican national committeeman who
Is well known in Klamath Falls, is here doing
tomething.
Arguments the Same
WE'VE wondered, sometimes, whether politi
cal views here near the seat of power are
like those held by folks out in the country.
Well, they are. We audited a kitchen politi
cal argument here that sounded exactly like
similar word battles we have participated in
2000 miles away.
The same views are held, pro and con, about
Mr. Roosevelt and the New Deal, within a few
feet of the place where the president lives,
almost close enough for him to hear a good
loud private dispute about his intentions and
ability.
Russian Offensive
HITLER lately has been moving directly
away from his promised offensive in Russia.
From London comes reports that the fuehrer
has withdrawn several divisions from the east
ern front. The Russians hastened to deny this,
obviously bent on dispelling any allied re
laxation of interest or pressure on their front,
and probably they know more about the subject
than the British.
Nevertheless, undeniable information Is avail
able that Hitler has augmented his force re
cently in both France and in Italy. These may
have been reserves taken from Germany rather
than the eastern front, but they would hardly
have been withdrawn had an anti-Russian of
fensive been contemplated. Furthermore, it
has been definitely established that a number
of German fighter planes have been recalled
from Russia since expansion of the British and
American air attacks on German industrial
centers.
The two previous nail offensives in Russia
were instituted in June, which was too late in
the year to allow for full development of the
action before winter. ,

Allied Strategy
THE Russians have likewise shown in their
maneuvers no threat of launching a big
offensive. The right time for Stalin to strike
would be when our Invasion is underway. Few
military men expect anything big out of
Russia until we have started.
The game the allies are playing is clear,
We are constantly threatening new points of
invasion in the east, feinting with our publicity
or air action at Italy, Greece and most sig
nificantly of late through Turkey into the
.Balkans. Our concentrations in Syria have
given Hitler full notice of danger in that
quarter, although it has been little noticed in
that country.
Thus we have caused Hitler to spread thinly
nis dwindling power. Faced with threats on all
fronts, he must spread his men and planes
around in the complete circle of his vaunted
fortress, preventing concentration of his full
power on any front. This is an indispensable
preparation for invasion.
Churchill Suggestion
k, iORE humor than significance can be at,
TVI tached to Churchill's suggestion that heavy
fighting can be expected in the Mediterranean
Deiore me leaves Ian (winter).
Mr. Churchill was answering the German
radio which has been predicting every few
days that invasion would start tomorrow morn
ing or the day after. The Germans obviously
are looking for information and, at the same
nine, trying xo Duua up a popular expectation
of enemy action to keep their own defenses
alert at home, while Mr. Churchill is chiding
inem wnn opposite propaganda.
If you read his words closely, you will find
that invasion could start tomorrow unH hie
words would still read truthfully in retrospect.
Japs in U. S. Uniforms
Queried on Buried Camera
SEATTLE, July 6 (P) Three
American-born Jaoanese wear
ing United States army uniforms
were questioned by army author
ities, the Post Intelligencer said
today, after one of them dug up
a camera buried on a Sumner,
Wash., farm.
The paper said the three,
formerly from an inland reloca
tion center, were inductees from
Fort Douglas, Utah, who came
to Sumner during their 15-day
leave before reporting for army
duty at Camp Shelby, Miss.
On June 18, the paper report
ed, the three Japanese appeared
at the Sumner home of Mr. and
Mrs. Ralph Burival, where one
of the Japanese formerly lived.
"One of them said to me 'I
left a good camera out in the
shed when I left here, and I
want to dig it up,' " the paper
quoted Mrs. Burival.
The three than Aua "im h
camera, in a tin container, and I
departed, the story continued.
Police Chief Norton Wynn of
Sumner was notified and later
army authorities questioned the
inductees.
Disposition of the case was
not clear. The Post Intelli
gencer said the question was
submitted to the war department
in Washington, which ordered
the Japanese be released and al
lowed to proceed to Camp Shel
by. Chief Wynn said he under
stood they were beine held at
Fort Lewis. Wash., nendine
further investigation. Army au
thorities here declined comment.

Br DR. THOMAS D. MASTERS
There is no single satisfactory
treatment for acne. In most in
stances, this condition subsides
with sexual maturity. But the
social aspects of the condition
are of enormous importance to
adolescents, who are its chief
sufferers. And a good hygienic
program, including sufficient
rest and outdoor exercise, care
ful diet and bathing, and simple
sulphur applications can do
much toward lessening the
spread of the infection and some
times may eliminate it entirely
Despite the fact that the per
son of IB or IB with acne is on
the side of the majority, and the
ones without acne represent the
decided minority, the presence of
Diemisnes on the face and back
are the source of great mental
distress to those afflicted. Some
really have a legitimate com
plaint because a bad complexion
may be a bar to various kinds of
employment
CAUSE UNKNOWN
The cause of acne is not defin
itely known, despite the fact that
a high incidence of the condition
has afforded ample opportunity
for its study. For a long time, it
was thought to be due to infec
tion, either specific or focal.
Some have considered it a mani
festation of allergy.
At present the leading theories
associate the disturbance with
faulty utilization of fats or an ir
regularity in function of the
glands of internal secretion. An
acne-like eruption may be caused
by a group of chemicals, of
which bromide is one in com
mon use, and the chlorine com
pounds used in certain oils and
greases may affect industrial
workers with these materials.
Acne begins with the black
head, which is a collection of oily
material or sebum normally ex
creted by the sebaceous glands In
the skin, but in acne retained
within the duct. After thus
blocking the duct, secondary in
fection may then occur with the
development of small, superficial
abscesses or pustules. The con
dition is recognized by the small
raised red and sometimes slight
ly tender pimples containing
blackhead, which sometimes
break down in the center with
the formation of pus. These are
usually located on the face, back
of the neck and shoulders. Rare
ly, they heal with the formation
of scars, which are permanent
and disfiguring. Usually, they
heal without any residual ef
fects.
CORRECT DIET HABITS -
Obvious errors in diet should
be corrected, and there are many
who believe that a sharp reduc
tion in fatty foods may be of
benefit. The face should be
washed gently two or three times
daily with a simple, neutral soap.
which should be removed with
cold water. At night, art appli
cation of one-half tcaspoonful of
borax in a pint of hot water to
the face helps to remove the
scale that obstructs the oil
glands.
This wash may be followed by
an application of sulphur lotion,
which has been employed for
years as a remedy for acne. Such
a lotion contains 1 per cent cam.
phor and 6 per cent precipitated
suipnur in lime water. It is oat-
tcd on the face and allowed to
remain thero all night
Those who arc exposed to cut
ting oils and grease should take
care to wear impervious cuffs
and aprons, change work clothes
daily and wash the exposed
parts several times a day if they
want to take precautions against
acne.
