Wo hadn't seen anything like that in any group that big for, several years. Our first , thought was that the war Is over, all right. But considering the matter furth er:, we decided this situation reflected a local condition that Justifies a little discussion. We believe it shows a grow ling detachment of the military from the civilian community or vice versa in our area. From the time the Naval Air Station and the Marine Barracks were first established here, there was a wholesome meshing of the military and civilian groups. There were many relation ships that made the military people happier while stationed here, and brought pleasure to local people with whom they became ac quainted. To many of the military folks, accustomed to the rather cold: division that usually exists between . military and civilian groups, it brought an enthusiastic response. Readers of this column who recember Captain Red Lewis' letter here the other day will know what we are- talking about -., . . This favorable situation has continued for a long time, but we believe that currently there is a tendency., toward separation; of these groups that is not good. This is due in-part, of course, to the rather frequent changes that are made in military personnel. Many of the mili tary people who became well acquainted in the town have left, and we have simply not gotten to know the new ones. We believe that it would be well for civilians to make a conscious effort to mend this de ficiency, rebuilding . personal, social and civic relationships with our military guests. We are sure the military folks will be found receptive to friendly gestures. We think, at large local . civic gatherings, there should be a definite effort to have the military posts well rep- iresented. Council Change OUR old friend, John Keller, became a city ' councilman on January 1, 1933. John served long and faithfully on the job, and was for a long time president of the council. Re cently, illness has prevented his attendance at. council sessions, leading to his resignation be cause he felt he could no longer carry the responsibility. He leaves the office with the appreciation and best wishes of everyone. His successor, Charles P. Van Doren, Is well qualified to do an effective job as representa tive of ward No. 2. There was some disagree ment In the city family about the manner in which the change came about, but there was no argument about. Mr. Van Doren't qualifica tions. Neither he, nor anyone else, should misinterpret the little storm at the council meeting. It was .not in any way a. reflection : on Mr. Van Doren, and we are sure he goes into the office with the good will of the mayor, council, and the voters of the ward. The incident served to bring to public atten-' tion the fact that there is some division and ; feeling in the municipal family something, that is likely to happen in any family. We suggest, however, that before this grows Into anything that is likely to be embarrassing and harmful to constructive municipal activity, the mayor and ' council let down, their hair and undertake a policy of frank understanding that will insure harmonious action whenever that is ' possible, and good-natured give-and-take when there is honest disagreement. .' .'',. : . ' BY PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, Oct. 83 My bare mention of the campaign of self-professed liberal leaders to abolish the industry of commercial domestic science in the brave new world, brought a ton of letters from both sides the housewives and the domestics. The domestics who wrote me rather agreed with the liberal pretense that such work was as a leading national weekly wrote It "beneath the personality" of the individual. Now my column deals only with major events, the Inside on the economic, political and international news of the hour, and some may say the proposed abolition of this Industry is not a fit subject for me to delve into. Frankly I know of nothing more important than the art of living, and a proposal to abolish it is more important to every. human being than what the senate will do with taxes. Whether you work at a machine or a desk, you have a home and the conditions under which you live In It are as vital as life Itself. Dignity? What is more dignified than a clean, well kept, comfortable home. What service contributes more to humanity than that which contributes to the joy of living. Personality? What personality Is more respect ed and loved in this world than that of a smiling, genial friendly human being in what ever walk of life. a Abolish Cooking? WHAT art contributes more to the happiness - of the individual than the art of cook ing? I am only interested when these nonsense peddlers propose their funny business in eco nomics, politics and world affairs, but when they propose to abolish cooking they really get me rUedU'-v-i. .'.y ; . . What do they- eat? No doubt vitamin pills and' bicarbonate of soda, as I have heard one of them say. They da not know the dignity of a well-cooked, steak ' over a charcoal broiler, one about two- inches thick, not rare, just slightly pink- In the middle, flavored when done with a little butter and pepper and salt. .What'-breathes more personality Into the human soul, than a roast turkey, done so the juice spurts when you stick the fork into the crisp browned skin. A pheasant stuffed with onions, carefully basted! Why even the lowly beef stew has great personality, greater to me than a lot of glum and bitter people I know. But few people can do it right. As a matter of fact few can do any of these things well, so far have we been, led away from the Elysian fields of the-kitchen by propaganda pipers and prevaricators. The best stew I get is what I make myself, and the next best is in a one arm restaurant, where the cook is better on the subject ot beef stew than the fancy cooks of the high priced hotels. . Cooking is not beneath the dignity of any one's personality. I do not care how great he or she may be, and I include the doorman of the Savoy hotel in London whose dignity sur passeth anything I have seen, including the United States supreme court. ' a Stupid . i; WHY then do these fake liberals propose to abolish the art of living, by repudiating its plain social significance? The first answer which would probably occur to anyone is that they are nutz. More' than that they arc just plain nuts. They arc .obsessed, like the com munists with whom they fraternize,' with only one ideal of life politics. ' i r' They see nothing more in human existence. There, must be no joke which does not convey a political meaning, no. stage play or movie without political propaganda significance and now. they have put politics Into the home. , : ' They are trying to convince every maid, cook and servant that such work is beneath them In order to make ',them' rebellious against their Jobs.. If there is one thing which will ruin any man on. any .job, it is his conversion to the theory that the work is beneath him.- He cannot do the job justice, and he cannot have happl ' ness in his work. He ruins both the pleasure of living and the work he Is doing. If I took . my job that way I would never earn a living... Of a!l the political bunk worked off on these United States as valid liberalism and forward 'looking, progress, this effort to mislead public thought is the most stupid. . .

(To the Editor): With reference to the letter written to you from Dorothy Allen . Hamilton Mc- Naulty, I hope I have her name correct, nere are tne facts: The letter shows the writer to be completely , uninformed and ignorant about Indian Affairs. It is not business it is a person al attack. The Indians did not have a thing to do with the hiring and firing of Wade Crawford. Fol lowing is the answer to the peti tion she referred to in her letter: "April 15, 1935 In view of all the factors involved, I have concluded that I should not at this time grant your request for the removal of Mr. Crawford from the Superintendency. Signed, T. A. Waters, Acting Secretary of the Interior." The director of forests in the Indian Service wrote a letter to the commissioner, in part he said: "Personally, It seems to ! me that of all the Superintendents I have so far met Wade is the best qualified to hold that important position. - He has easily ranked first in his knowledge of and sympathy with forest problems, both timber and grazing." In. the four years Crawford was superintendent he spent $195,000 for Agency Adminis tration this year Courtright has $206,000. HE WILL SPEND IN ONE YEAR MORE THAN CRAWFORD DID IN FOUR. Crawford helped to get the droueht cattle in here and tank a lot of interest in it. It was the start of getting the Indians back into the cattle industry. He set up a health program, employed three doctors and what is more kept the hospital open. He gave the Indians employment which was not done before he was suo- erintendent, Most of us appre ciate an oi tne tmngs Crawford did for us. He it in "Who's Who of American Indian." Few In dians have that honor. It is a shame that an Indian would attack Wade Crawford personally and defend B. Ci. Courtright when we now know that Mr. Courtright and the In dian Bureau staff wrote the long-range program which will spend every dollar of the . In dians' money. The program will put us Indian stockmen under a permit system under "law and order" and in the end force us out of business. -. Mrs. Hamilton and other In dians like her, in trying to de fend the Indian Bureau are just Indian Bureau Indians; and they hurt the Indians' cause. They are the class of . Indians who create factions among the In dians; and make monkeys of themselves. , . -. , , I attended the last i Council. Dorothy Hamilton, did not. Mr, Crawford stood up in the Coun cil and gave us the facts about the long-range spending program which we did not know about before. He gave us other infor mation from records written by the bureau of Indian affairs. I do hot know how anyone in their right mind could call that "trickery." I hope he continues to .do it, it is the only. way . we can get tne facts, i am sure Wade Crawford will be here in thit country a long time after B..G, Courtright Is gone. : i Thank you for giving this space.

The World Today By D.WITT MacKENZIE Associated Press War Analyst MacKENZIE There nro the makings of an other dungcrous upheaval In tlio Balkans. Freshly arrived Russian troops, with tanks and ar tillery, are 'maneuvering" In tout horn Bulgaria near the Turkish bordor. Roll ablo estimates place the Red military force in Bulgnrla ut 200,000. The Bulgarian army is being reorganized under the tutelage of Russian training staffs, and has the appearance of being an auxiliary to the Soviet forco. Why all this military activity? Well, tho answer must bo a ?:uess, but wo don't have to look nr for a likely answer, As I read the signs, the dispute between Moscow and Turkey over (1) control of tho Darda nelles and (2) tho territorial concessions which the Soviet wants In Turkish Armenia, seems to be coming to a head. Tho stakes are vast, and both sides are packing guns precau tionary, probably, but none the less suggcstlvo. Turkey Controls Dardanelles The way things now stand, Turkey controls the Dardanelles under the so-called Montreal! x convention of 1B30 signed by Bulgaria, France, Britain, Greece, Japan, Romania, Tur key, Russia and Yugoslavia. This treaty permitted Turkey to remilitarize the strait. Freedom of passage for other nations was rooognUed, excepting that Tur key could closo tho Dardanelles it tho was at war or was threat ened by war. Tho Monlrcnux convention didn't troublo lunula at tho time ot its signing, but It has becomu a mighty muttor now that sho is tho dominant power of tluit part of tho world and wonts free access to tha Mediterranean. Thus It en mo ithout that at the lust meeting ot the big throo lit l'otsdutn the Soviet unkud for a rovlslon of tho Monli'ouiix con vention. P r e s 1 d e n t Truman stood tor an International com mission to control the strnlt and there the matter still rests. The Turks naturally don't cotton to tho Idea much, and hold that tho convention would liuvo to ho altered by the sumo countries which established It. Fuel to the Fire To add fuel to tho lira, an other question developed be tween Moscow and Ankara. Tho Soviet Union claims the Kara, Ardithitn and Artvln districts of Turkish Armonlu. Thoso aro In tho northeast corner of Asiatic Turkoy, at tho southouslorn end of tha Black Sen, and llo agninst the frontiers of tho Soviut re publics of Georgia and Aremo niu. The thrco districts were ceded to Turkey by Russia In 1021, as u good will gesture, They now havo n strategic vnlno which makes them valuablo to Russia, The Turkish press has been blunt In declaring that Ankara will refuBo to give up thvso dis tricts. Tho Turks are tough and probably mean what they say. Whether they could buck up what they say, or would try to, is quite another question. In any event, tho indications are that Russiu Is going to de mand un early settlement of both theso questions. Uuliinrla of courso will stand solidly with Russia. The Sofia provisional government which Is still un recognized by the United States and Britnln, who maintain that It doesn't represent tho whole country Is heavily communistic. One undm('rd malar Jg ship remained at the end of the war. Maybe there just wasn't uuy more room In Duvey Jones' locker. Radio Programs UC II Mutual-Don Lee IVIMI 1J40 ko.
