IS, 1945 EDITORIALS ON NEWS (Continued from Page One) toward a somewhat better world to live in. THERE are uprisings in the Dutch East Indies and French Indo-China. It's too bad, in - a way, that just as the major killings begin to decline these minor killings have to flare up. But the thing that lies at the bottom of it is the ancient and now fairly well discredited theory that one race is SUPERIOR to another and therefore has the right to inflict its will on the inferior race. That is the only excuse for the Dutch to inflict their will on the brown people of the East Indies and the French to do likewise with the somewhat lighter skinned Indo-Chinese. . THE fact that these uprisings appear at this moment when people generally must be as tired as we are of war is an indica tion of the tension resulting from the subject empire system. The people of the West Indies and of Indo-China are weary enough of the empire system that rests on the theory ot race "superiority" to be willing to go on fighting, even now. ALSO we mustn't forget that a lot of this kind of trouble throughout the world will be in spired by ambitious "outs" who want to be in. The craving for POWER has not yet been re moved from human beings. TREASURY SECRETARY VIN SON, appearing before the senate finance committee, favors "just enough" tax cuts and op poses "too much" of it. His idea is sound enough. Even sounder is the need for shrinking the cost of federal gov ernment That task should be tackled determinedly. Every useless dollar of federal govern ment cost is an obstacle in the way of recovery from the wast age of war. T7INCENT warns the senate " erouD that inflation may get away from everybody during the transition from war to peace which, he says, should be kept in mind in preparing our tax reduction nlans. He adds: "We have held this enemy (inflation) at bay throughout the war, and it would be folly to drop our guard before the final round is won." This writer, having come re cently from continental Europe where the spectacle of people starving with their pockets stuffed with money is a rather common, one, agrees with him. THE cure for inflation is PRO , DUCTIONt We mustn't drop our defenses against inflation un til production gets going in, a Dig way."' f-.-r y,v: r - 1 i Winner of the junior cham ber of commerce fire prevention essay contest which ended last week were ,F lo Ann Perkins of Fremont school, eighth grade class; Robert'Lee Everett, Riverside-school,-seventh grade class, and Avalee Dahns, Pelican City, sixth grade. - ',.

SURPRISE EP RALLY HELD AT L Supplementing' their usual Monday get-together, members of the Quarterback club jour neyed in a body to the high school auditorium today for surprise pep rally to work up steam (or the Medford gamo next Friday. John Houston led the tumul tuous rally, flanked by the high school band, football squad, Quartcrbackers and the enure student body. Honor Guests During the curtailed meeting at the willard at noon the club had Bill Sari and Bob Rcdkey of the Pelicans as honor guests, and heard Paul Angstead com ment on what happened at Grants Pass last Friday night, "There just isn't any way to explain our loss there," uoacn Angstead remarked, but went on to say tne Feiicans tried too many through-the-line plays in the first halt instead of calling for wide runs to gain more ground. Medford Tilt As for the Medford tilt, Ang stead doesn't have too much doDe on the Tornado system, but knows that they gain their vardaee on wide runs the same as the Pelicans, and he and Coach Ryan "are trying to fig ure out something to stop that." The possibility of a football game in Klamath Falls during the coming Eighth war loan drive was aired by. Roy Premo. He is contacting a number of college and service teams hav ing open dates and thinks there is a eood chance of setting a couple of high-calibre teams up here. There's an outside chance that the Fleet City Bluejackets and El Toro Marines might be persuaded to play in Klamath Falls, Premo said, but there's nothing detinue. IVO DEFENSE SEEN (Continued from Page One) the committee was in no way prompted by the navy depart ment." Among the "previously publi cized" indications that a defense had been developed, Vinson cited: "(1) The announcement of the Crosby Research Foundation that it had developed a device that could explode atomic bombs when they vfere miles away without even knowing their exact location, and (2) an an nouncement in a British news paper that that country had de veloped an effective counter measure with application of the proximity fuse." Vinson also said that General H. H. Arnold, army air forces commander, "was reported to nave stated at a press conference some time ago that a defensive weapon against atomic bombs was one of the things now 'prob able to the point, almost, of in evitability.'

MacArthur Asks Unified U.S. Military Rule (Continued from Page-fcne) . the surrender terms imposed upon their country in punish ment for its great sins." Pxaisei Troops The general said in tribute to American troops: "With a few exceptions they could well be taken as a model for all time as a conquering army. No historian in later years when passions have cooled can arraign their -conduct." In contrast to some concepts that have been advanced," the Japanese army was thoroughly defeated before its surrender, MacArthur said. 'The victory was a triumph. he declared, "for the concept of complete integration of three dimensions of war ground, sea and air. By thorough use of each arm in conjunction with corresponding utilization of the other two, the enemy was re duced to a condition , of help lessness. 'By largely avoiding methods involving separate use of the services, and by avoiding meth ods of frontal assault as far as possible, our combined power forced the collapse with rela tive light loss, probably unpar alleled in any campaigns in his tory." Now that bathine suits are be ing laid away, why not change the famous expression to "One Moth Ball?"

Laval Executed As Traitor To France After Suicide Fails (Continued from Page One) which he termed a "Judicial crime." His first statement had been greeted by a burst of Jeers and shouts from the presiding Judge, prosecutor and jurors. Twice during the first three days, Laval was ejected from the courtroom. His lawyers quit at the start of tho trial, but returned only when threatened with disbarment. After his second ejection from tho trial, Laval was confined In a dungeon beneath the court room. He wrote some brief notes outlining his defense. A coffin lay near tho spot where Laval had pitched for ward In death. The body was filaced in it swiftly and loaded nto a hearse. Three official cars bearing the prefect of police, the attorney general and the local police commissioner accompanied the hearse from the gates of the prison.

Next to Laval's plot was a grave marked: "Here lies an unknown col laborator." Grave diggers immediately began covering Laval's coffin with dirt. About 25 spectators watched silently. The grave was left unmarked. It ' was believed, however, that his family will be given the right to move the body or place a tombstone over it. - No medical report was re leased immediately concerning the , exact condition of Laval when he was executed. Two men had supported him on his last walk to face the firing squad. .Doctors woriced on iavai with a stomach pump for two hours before the decision was made to proceed with the execu tion. No. demonstrations occurred around Fresncs. Heavy cordons of police lined all approaches lo the prison. When the sound of firing was heard from the prison, a stir went through the crowd.
