Is for both sides to give news frankly and openly to the press. Handouts filled with propaganda and generalities aren't likely to do . the Job. We are assuming, of. course, that all parties involved do want a full and honest story given to the public. As for us, our conscience is clear as to our intentions and past perform ancc, and we'll do our best, with or without cooperation.

We got complaints from two directions this week following publication of two advertise ments in Thursday's edition dealing with the current lum ber strike. One of the advertisements was inserted by the CIO-IWA union, sponsor of the strike. The other was signed by the companies whose operations are affected. The complaints came because they were pub lished on the SAME DAY and on the SAME PAGE in the paper. Both a company official and a union official expressed some doubt as to whether it could be coincidence that the first advertisements dealing with the issues from both sides should appear in that way. How It Happened HERE'S what happened: The CIO advertisement and the companies' advertisement were handed to our advertising department on Wednesday and authorized for publication Thursday. They came in within an hour of each other. As sometimes happens in merchandise advertising, two competitors gQt an idea at about the same time. It is strict policy in our advertising depart ment not to divulge any information, as to publication dates or contents of advertising, to competitors. We followed that to the letter on the CIO and lumber company advertisements. 'Both were accepted by our poker-faced adver tising department, without a word to either group as to the other's intentions. With two advertisements on the same subject scheduled for the same day, it was an obvious and sensible thing to place them on the same page. There was coincidence in the fact the ads came in for the same day, but not in their location in the paper. That was done for the convenience of our readers. No apologies are in order or are offered! Our Conscience Is Clear NOW, when our news representative called on the CIO-IWA union headquarters the following day, he was told by a union official that there would be no more news for this paper, on the indicated ground that the union had not been treated fairly. We presume that his attitude was prompted . by the advertisement incident, which we have explained in full. But perhaps the time is ripe for a little discussion of this strike, especially from the standpoint of news and editorial handling by this newspaper. , It has been our determined purpose through out to tell 'a straight, objective news story of this unfortunate affair. If anyone says other wise, he either tells a malicious falsehood or is so prejudiced he would be satisfied only with a COLORED story colored his way. On one occasion, the union press committee came in with a complaint that it felt editorial comment had been injected into a news story. We had intended to explain, rather than edi torialize, but we published the union com ment on the matter in full to dispose of any question of good faith. We carry our editorial comments on this affair in this column, under the name of this writer, who is responsible for them. We believe in frankness, and the surest way to provide a full story to the public on this The War Today . By DtWITT MacKENZIE Associated Preis Foreign Affairs Analyst OVER in Tokyo bay the great man-of-war Missouri swings at anchor amidst the armada of fighting ships, complacent in its massive strength, its decks spotless and its brass gleam ing, waiting for the ceremony which will mark the official capitulation of Japan to allied might. The Missouri symbolizes the end of the barbaric attempt of the axis powers to enslave their fellows. It marks a mo ment of high drama from which it is difficult to turn aside. Still, while we wait for the Japs to sign, we shouldn't overlook that other drama which is being enacted just across from Japan in China the Chungking confer ence upon which may depend whether this vast country will be plunged into that most terrible of all conflicts, civil war. Mackenzie Active Threat T iii: cninese development in a way is as Important as the official surrender aboard the Missouri. For Japan already is beaten and has lowered her flag, while the fierce quarrel between the Chinese v communists and Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek's government is an active threat to peace in Asia. Fratricidal war in China might nullify much of the good achieved by the defeat of Nippon. The position is that Chinese communist lead ers from the" north, headed by Mao Tse-tung, at long last are in Chungking in response to Chiang's invitation for a parley. Major General Patrick Hurley, American ambassador, flew clear up to Yenan to accompany them back to the capital, as a good-will go-between. a e Step Forward THAT was a step forward, but with the arrival of the communist leaders in Chung king their central committee issued a manifesto demanding the immediate formation of a coali tion government, giving the communists a full place. This was a reiteration of the demand against which the generalissimo has been fight ing for years. He has had thumbs down on the Chinese communists and many -bloody battles have been fought between the armies of the two factions. e e Chiang Compromise THUS Chiang is being asked to compromise on his principles. It is a tense moment. If he compromises it means at least temporary peace. If he refuses, all hell may break loose. We now come to one of the highlights of this second drama being unfolded in the ancient city which clings to. the precipitous hillside above the mighty Yangtze. Madame Chiang Kai-shek, who for a year has been in the United States under medical treatment, is racing back home on the appeal of her husband. She says she is "needed there now." Conciliator THIS brilliant, American-educated woman, who ranks among the world's great per sonages, long has been her husband's right hand. She has been his chief adviser in mat ters of state, as well as commander and de veloper of the Chinese air force. Indeed, she has been virtually co-ruler of the country and often has been referred to as "the brains of China." It is significant in the present Instance that Madame Chiang has a knack for conciliation, and has turned many of her husband's enemies into friends. You will recall that it was she who, at the risk of her own life, flew into the wilds when Chiang was kidnaped by bandits in 1936 and persuaded them to release him. SIDE GLANCES I 'AT...

PAY CLAIMS SEEN SALEM, Sept. 1 fP) Claims filed with the unemployment compensation commission dur ing the second post-war week to taled 1640, compared with 2170 during the first week after the war ended, the commission said today. The commission said: "With job openings continu ing high in lumbering, canner ies, railways and service indus tries, many of the emergency workers were transferring quickly to peacetime pursuits. "The commission expects the real pinch to come this winter when seasonal work falls, off and shipyard jobs dwindle. Farm work has attracted many of those laid off, although hop, bean and fruit growers are depending mainiy on local residents."

EDITORIALS ON NEWS (Continued from Page One) uses this train. Anyway, it is a transportation gem in the gen eral mass of rubble that musses up travel in these days of war restrictions and shortages. Bv no stretch of the imagina tion could it be called typical. AS a whole, British day trains " are unbelievably crowded, unbelievably dirty and shabby and fantastically war-worn and dilapidated as they have a per fect right to be, since they are in their sixth year of war service with neither time nor materials for slicking up. Back home, you have to have a reservation for a seat in a day coach before you can get on the train. They don't have that rule here. You pile on if you can get on, and by the time you reach your destination the aisles will be packed to the roof. If you get in the top layer you figure you're lucky. If you're in the bottom layer well, the less said about that the better.

You get your eye-teeth cut about the second time you buy a first-class ticket, find no first class compartments available and stand up all the way.
