Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
THE prevailing tolerance of the American
people is a shining light in this dreary
world.
Consider the case of the Hood River Ameri
can Legion post incident. mKwswwswaj
After the post erased the J
names of Japanese-American p'ij " I
soldiers from Its honor rolls, -5. '
the whole country was swept
with indignation, Most news
papers in Oregon, and many .
elsewhere, commented adverse
ly, and many organizations
adopted disapproving resolutions.
So great wa the criticism
that the Hood River post res
cinded its action insofar as it EPLEY
applies to Japanese-American soldiers who re
nounce the citizenship of Japan.
Surely, this was an example of good will
not only on the part of the many who formed
.the disapproving public opinion, but on the
part of the Hood River Legionnaires, no doubt
believing their purpose was justified, were will
ing to retreat from it in the cause o: tolerance.
There's o Difference
THERE is a difference between intelligent
tolerance and sentimental softness. The
latter, more often than not, is likely to harm
those it is Intended to benefit, and to make
fools of those who indulge in it.
;The Hood River affair, we believe, is an ex
' ample of the former. The policies that per
mitted Japanese in the Tulelake center in late
1943 to get out of hand to the place where
they came within an inch of causing a bloody
battle not to speak of an international inci
dentbelongs In the other classification.
Folkes Case
AHILE we are on this subject, let's take a
VV look at the case of Robert Lee Folkes,
the negro convicted in the Lower 13 murder
case.
Folkes' conviction has been tested in every
legal way, and it has survived. He Is now
under sentence to die for one of the most cold
blooded murders in Oregon history.
A determined battle is still being waged to
save hin, by negro leaders and those sympa
thetic with negroes in connection with racial
problems in this country. :
Folkes is not under sentence to die because
he is a negro. In fact, we believe that he has
had a better chance to escape the gas chamber
for that very reason, and that the final effort
in his behalf is due to the fact he is a negro.
Oregon is an 'unusually tolerant' state. If
Folkes pays the death penalty, it will h
of clear-cut evidence that he committed the
News Behind the News
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, Dec. 22 Mr. Churchill's
cutting of the Curron line through Po
land came as a shock to the public, but not to
the diplomats involved.
A year or more ago, even the newspapermen
in London knew Britain, had an understanding
with Russia for this very Stalin acquisition of
prewar Polish territory. They were not per
mitted to write it publicly, but they discussed
it freely among themselves.
The deal was reached long back beforo the
recent Churchill and Eden visits to Moscow,
perhaps as far back as the Teheran conference,
as now reported.
The European diplomatic game for practically
the past two years has been directed on this
phase, toward working- the' exiled Polish gov
ernment in London around to acceptance of the
Curzon cutting.
There was not much deception in Churchill's
position. Last January and February he public
ly Implored the London Poles to accept the
western Curzon slice.
e . e ,
Shows Up Opposition
THE sensational way ha presented it to parlia
ment as a cold cut finally acceptable to
him may have been inspired by a different
motive. To shove it forward on the table now
showed up the opposition which was pressing
him on the Greek affair.
His own liberals, laborites and trado unionists
(and our New Dealers) had been reprimanding
him for opposing the leftwlng and communist
elements in Greece so he presented them with
the Polish case in which he had sold out to
those elements. Such adroit policies rather nul
llfied their campaign against him on the Greek
matter.
Here no one knows what to say (see state
department announcement of Monday.) Or
rather they know what they are eager to say
but doubt if it would do any good.
Republican Senator Vandenberg walked
arouna ail last week with a speech obviously
ticking out on his chest. He could barely
restrain nrmseu aay Dy day, saying he was
delaying presentation of his views because he
did not know whether it would . help or hurt
the situation to offer them and he delivered
only half yesterday.
a
Takes Portion
THE disillusioning fact of the matter was that
Britain went -to war to save Poland. That
. is how this war started. While the British and
French were in Moscow trying to make a deal
witn Mann, Hitler announced a nonaggression
pact wim him (August 21,- 1939) to run for 10
years whereby neither would ODDOse the other.
This no doubt called for division of Poland
because Russia moved in and took her half
less than a month later.
Meantime Hitler invaded his half of Poland
(Sept. 1) and Britain declared war two days
later wnen Hitler did not answer Chamber
lain's ultimatum to withdraw nazl troops from
x-oiisn sou (.oritain nao a treaty with the Poles
undertaking to protect them.) '
But the British do not now feel or act disillusioned.
History may measure Churchill's conciliation

Now comes an envelope from Bill. ' In it is a
piece of copy from the teletype of the esteemed
United Press, quoting Congressman James Mott
to the effect that the "Klamath Falls Marine

THE Stettinius statement was issued in re

Wall ini tt r . . . . ,
u. wuiigiesaman mon called it a
hospital, which w doubt, he was wrong.- And
if the United Press called it that, which it ap.

that in your sheet, you are wrong.

Today's Bible Verses .
From Psalm XXXVII
A Psalm of David
God thundereth marvelously with His voice:
rfreat things doeth He, which we cannot con '
prehend.
For He saith to the snow, Be thou on the
earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the
great rain of his strength .. . '
Out of the south cometh the whirlwind; and
a cold out of the nbrth.
By the breath of God, frost is given; and
the breadth of the waters is straitened..
ine united Mates can permanently defend. It
nas solid moral background. But Churchill
and Stalin are working toward something con
trarydivision of spheres of major-nation in
fluence over people. That is a course of ex
pediency, justifiable by present day facts, but
without any moral ground whatsoever.
For example, it is quite true a fully free
Poland will remain an illusion as long as
Russia, with its overpowering army, exists
alongside her. Thus it is physically impossible
to have what we want at this time.
It also may be physically impossible to have
freedom of people in Greece, Italy and else
where because leftism is a world movement,
nondemocratic Russian and dictatorial in nature
but because this is so, temporarily, should we
abandon what we know is right, what is our
own heritage, our own concept of the war?
. In short, should . we abandon the American
game of freedom . of peoples to condone or
accept the European game of spheres of influ
ence? That is the case and the issue.
