Senator Hatch construes the Ball - Burton Hatch Bill bill (which Vice President Wallace endorsed) as calling for an in ternational police force acting under orders of an internation al body. Powerful Foreign Relations Chairman Connally says there, can be no such force, and no such surrender of sovereignty. The man whose views count Ml MALXON more, State Secretary - Hull, has announced only that the "means" of Inter- national action to keep the peace is being dis cussed, (which may be significant in view of the fact that his now resigned assistant, Mr. Welles, promised an International police force.) Lei us sift the argument for facts, and analyze the residue. " Fact number 1 is the term "Inter- . national. police force" is -obviously a misnomer. What everyone means is not international police men sauntering around the world with night sticks, but an international army 'and navy ready to do battle. The difference between-a policeman and an International dive bomber measures the extent In which the discussion has been deceptively entitled. When you call the argument by its right name, you also can measure accurately the ex tent to which some sort of super world organiza tion would control the armed might of the world and thus completely destroy all the na tional sovereignties of all nations. Offhand, I would say that even if we wanted this, Russia would never accept it, and I doubt if Britain would. The idea of an international police force to run Russia must make Stalin laugh. Incontrovertible fact No. 2 is that Hatch and others who believe to such a force, actually . think they are continuing the alliance which is winning this war. The war is being won in an entirely different way. We have our army and navy, the British have theirs, Russia theirs. We and the British have worked pretty close, but we do not even yet know the simplest facts of the Russian army strength or plans. The The War Today By Dewrrr mcitenzie It gives exceedingly to won der whether- the- authoritative Army and Navy Journal hasn't opened the closet door on a rather grim International skele ton by itr sensational assertion that powerful t interests would like to remove Chief of Staff General George C, Marion from the Washington scene. "Acting under the president's instruction," explains the Jour nal," he (Marshall) has labored zealously to insure the fullest measure of cooperation with our allies and especially the British, a policy based on the president's and his own appre ciation of the necessity of safe guarding American interests, thinking only of winning the war in the shortest time and of saving every American life pos sible, in connection with the blpody operations which it calls for, General Marshall, of course, has come into conflict with powerful interests which would like to eliminate him from the Washington picture, and place in his stead an officer more amenable to their will." Nasty Picture That's a nasty picture. Who are these powerful interests? The general public has learned of only one difference of opin ion between Marshall and crit ics. The chief of staff is said to have held firmly to the convic tion that western Europe should be. invaded directly from Eng land. Other strategists, particu larly those on the British side of ' the table, have frowned on cross-channel invasion. Timing of the drive also is said to have caused some dissension. , Well, It certainly is interest ing' to know where General Marshall has stood on such in vasion, for that has been one of the major issues of the war, as Moscow hasn t allowed, us to forget. Tne Russian plea of course has been that the appointed hour for invasion is while the Germans are in dire straits on the red front. General Marshall himself in testifying before the senate and house military com mittees on the need of more men for the army, declared: "While you have . the other fellow on the run, the more you do to. cut him down before he regains his , balance, the better it is;" . .. ,' . Nails Ready One of the arguments against cross-channel invasion - now is that the, Germans are better prepared for an attack on the French and, Belgian coasts than at any other1 place.

It also is argued that failure might be catastrophic for the allies. Well,' there's truth in this'. However, it's apparent that the Russians don't want the allies to invade the Balkans, which Moscow regards as its sphere of influence. We know also, that Britain long has worked to extend her influence in the Balkans, which lie up against her special sphere of influence in the Middle East Thus we encounter a political angle, quite apart from the military, Just as this article was being finished there arrived from London a : bulletin quoting Prime Minister Churchill as telling the house of commons: "I never have regarded this African operation as a substi tute for a direct attack across the channel on the Germans Jn France and the low countries.1 It looks as though he had taken quick cognizance of the Army and Navy Journal edi torial, and to have given this as an answer. Maybe the allies still will find it feasible to in vade western Europe while the Russians have the nazis on the run.

Italian Customs ' Station Closed AT THE SWISS-ITALIAN FRONTIER, Sept. 21 (P) The Ponte Chiasso customs station on the Italian side of the Swiss-Italian frontier, where hundreds of Italian troops and civilians have been massing In an effort to flee the country, was closed today by lierman troops. Passports, frontier cards and visas were invalidated and some 600 persons who until now had crossed the border daily to work were detained on whichever side of the border they were caught by the action. .,...

MALCOLM EPLEY Managing Sditor each ally has been preserved to far in the winning of this war. Of cooperation. plenty, but each nation has care it own Integrity. Hatch and the others really want war status quo into the post war will be no international army and (Stalin has not even been in WE are winning this war, from the Amer ican standpoint, because we were able to put a superior army and superior equipment in time. We nearly were too late. Hatch and the others in that school want to carry the victory over, into the peace, they will primarily insist that we maintain our superior army, air force, navy, and keep our production lines ready and open, so we will never be caught flatfooted in another Pearl Harbor. Fact No. 3 is their assumption that an inter national army or super state would eliminate differences between nations. Well, we had relatively the existing allied armed situation or better, at the time Manchukuo was' invaded by the Japs, Chine outrageously attacked, and Ethiopia conquered and we never did anything about it. We Did Nothing WE did nothing because of differences of In terests among the anti-aggressor forces. Our people did not want to do anything about these things. Any attempt to have this country go to war to protect these remote peoples was considered preposterous at the time. If there had been an international army, the same differences would have prevailed and prevented action. ; Hatch's own senate cannot get together within itself for specific international peace action, now or with the house, or either of them with the president. ,- If you cannot get the democrats and repub licans, or even the democrats within themselves, to agree on course of peace action, how Is the world super state, representing far greater differences and competitive interests existing be tween nations like Russia and the democracies, ever going to agree on war action? The idea, therefore, is likely to evaporate for lack of substance. , Telling The Editor ! ar"? here man ml a mora Oaaa M anrta ki lauth, awt ba writ Ian leM, oa ONI IIOI M tha aaaar oy, anal .mm ba alaoa. eomrltmwna tolloaaraj theeo ratae. an aoiatfy aaav TRAINING RULES KLAMATH FALLS, Ore To the Editor) Here are sim ple training rules for athletes which have been found useful by athletic teams with which I have been affiliated: 1.

"I'm going to ask for a raise or pulled a boner Dr. Masters' Health Natural Leannes No Sign Of Functional By DR. THOMAS D. MASTERS Leanness is a state that is fre quently considered to be the result of poor health. This er roneous conclusion is probably due to the fact that many peo ple who are . lean have lost weight as the result of disease. Differentiation- must be made between weight-loss and leanness without previous increased weight. Weight-loss is, of course,-a common sign of illness, and to consider the conditions associat ed with weight-loss would be to review the majority of all dis eases. Weight-loss as the result of acute. infectious diseases is so commonly . expected that v it arouses no surprise.. There are some diseases so insidious in their onset or so asymptomatic in - themselves that weight-loss may be the only symptom, and thus they Imitate th leanness that results-.from causes other than disease: I Ideal Weight - Mapy people are considered' to be lean whose weights are still within the lower limits of the normal. Active, growing children of apprehensive parents are usually in this group. There is considerable confusion be tween average weight and ideal weight. The latter is somewhat variable and is a purely indi vidual figure. The average weight is an artiflcal figure ar rived at by determining -1 h e mean of a large number of in dividuals whose weights are both above and below the aver- Many individuals are thin be cause they have inherited a pre disposition to that physical build. Under such circumstances. leanness is not a symptom of ill- health. If they are given mora food than their appetite calls for and prolonged rest a temporary increase in weight will come about. With the return to normal habits, however, the leanness: will also come back. These peo ple are usually lean in child hood, and although growth is normal in other respects, they do not develop fat deposits be cause their intake and output of energy is in balance when the body weight- is below the aver age. ' ' Emotional Conflicts At times, extreme underweight results from emotional conflicts. This condition is usually as sociated with a dlstate or dis gust for food and not just a lack of appetite. The problem of leanness in volves first the evidence that it exists to an abnormal degree; second, the determination of its cause. If it is due to disease else where in the body, this status should be corrected. It is doubt ful if any medicine or tonic will stimulate the appetite, but fre quently a new environment or moderate physical exercise will do so. The diet should be at tractive and' tasteful to the in dividual. The maximum calories should be provided in the min imum volume of food. Unusual dietary fads should be corrected by re-education.
