They've bought a house, and EPLEY are waiting to take possession. Paul turns out a daily column and writes news for the Journal, and in leisure hour works hard at golf at the Klinger Lake Country club. (Note to Hale Scarbrough He recently shot a 77 and his handicap has been cut to 8.) Sturgis Is a pleasant town of about 10.000, with tree-lined residential streets running back from teeming US 112, a major Detroit-Chicago road, which is also the main street of the town. A notable feature of Sturgis is a handsome, pond-studded city park which once was the municipal dump. A lot of the work of trans forming it was done by citizens back in de pression days, working out their municipal taxes. Klinger lake nearby is a clear water lake surrounded by summer homes. There are a lot of auch lakes In this area. WE came on to Sturgis from Wooster, O., driving through northern Ohio and a bit of northeastern Indiana. It is all rich farming country. The talk here is that the crops are terrific. Grain Is now being harvested, and the bundles In shock in the tree-lined fields give a picture of sbundance and beauty. The corn is shooting up. and another soaking rain or two will assure a big corn crop. - . STURGIS' main street Is brick-paved. Brick paving Is quite common surfacing on mid western roads and streets. The job on the main stem here is much superior to most of the brick paving on which we have driven. Usually, you rumble along, getting the effect of driving on dry pavement with chains. The only reason we have heard for all the brick paving in the midwest is that there is a lot of brick manufactured here. A story is (old about Senator Bilbo of Missis ' sippi and brick paving. It is said that when he was getting his start In politics down there, he bid for public office on paving promises. He told the voters that if elected he would put In a lot of brick paving. "We'll build the roads of brick." he Is quoted, "we'll build 'era straight and build 'em long. We'll drive on 'em for 20 years; then we'll turn 'em over and drive .on the other side for 20 years." ' He was elected. The World Today By DeWITT MacKENZIE -.

B Tennessee ied ABC i:.1 Dirk Trsrv ABC t perls Llasap ton Stuart, was presenting his credentials to the generalissimo at China' summer capital, Kuling. General George C. Marshall's attempts to reconcile the warring factions will continue but he will have performed a feat extraordin ary if he succeeds, for he is dealing with two political isms which thus far have been irrecon cilable. Moreover he is faced with many other difficulties, among which are the general back wardness and economic straits of this vast coun try of 500 millions. General Ho Ying-chin, the generalissimo's top military expert who is now in the United States, defends his country's slowness in becoming pro gressive by citing that it was only as far back as 1910 that "China threw off the yoke of 5000 years of Manchu despotism." That's a true bill, and one we shouldn't overlook in assaying the present situation. A Witch's Brew THIS huge country which, In many remote areas is truly primitive, is a melting-pot for a witch's brew of troubles. For one thing China is a land of vast riches and terrible poverty and that in itself is a mighty chasm to bridge. As the result of the protracted war against the invading Japanese the economic position is terribly bad. Inflation has been running riot for years until one wonders how even the rich can find the cash to maintain themselves. The prices of bare necessities are fantastic. The question of whether Chinese commu nism is affiliated with Moscow will have a con siderable effect on the trend of the struggle, as I see it. It's a remarkable thing that this point thus far hasn't had any formal official clarification. When General Ho Ying-chin was asked if there was any connection between the two he shot back tartly: "Better ask the Chi nese communists that." Well, I've done exactly that in China and have made the inquiry from no less personage, than General Chou En-lai, second in leadership of the Chinese reds. He told me that the Chinese reds weren't hooked to Moscow. Still you will find many competent observers who believe (but can't prove) that the Chinese com munists get inspiration and material aid from Russia. The point is, of course, that if the Chinese communists are indeed "on their own," the prospect of shortening the civil war might be somewhat brighter. Front And Center By CARTER BURNS LT. GEN. ROBERT L. EICHELBERGERS public condemnation of "drunken bullies" among his forces in Japan brings to a climax a long series of unsavory acts charged against our' occupation troops in both war theatres. This misconduct has been variously blamed on lack of training and immaturity of the men in the ranks. To find the underlying cause, one must probe deeper. If. immature troops misbehave, they are improperly trained. If troops are im properly trained, they are poorly led. Thus the entire situation devolves upon the question of leadership the most important single factor in the successful functioning of any armed force. Unfortunately, as the army on one hand decries the results of this lack of leadership. hand it seeks to excuse rather that weakness, as it announces effect recommendations of the Doolittle "GI Gripe Board," thus further low ering the prestige of its leaders. No officer worthy of his position has ever been begrudged the perquisites of his rank by sane-minded subordinates, who come to realize that only through application of discipline can a military force be( prevented from acting like a mob. But the officer must himself exhibit the qualities of leadership which instill respect and obedience in his men. Well-led troops are inherently well-trained troops and well-trained troops soon develop that intangible morale which inspires pride in themselves and their organization. They will not bring discredit on their standards by acting like "drunken bullies."

July 20 t) Veks after its return to Chi nese nationalist sovereignity this Manchurian capital remains a city of military tenseness and oarLod wired entaniilemcnts. Still, in view of the multi plicity of armies Japanese, Hussian, Chinese communist and nationalist which have stream ed through her modern, well paved streets in recent months, the fact that it has returned to anything resembling normal is astonishing. From the air, Changchun's broad avenues, modern build ings and wealth of parks serve notice that this is no ordinary Chinese city but a recent-day creation of the Japanese during 14 years of occupation. From the sir, too, can be seen the effects of war row upon row of former Japanese factories, now roofless shells of brick stripped even of floors and win dow sills. Around the fringes of a large well-equipped airport, hulks of Russian Storovlks and a Japan ese planes are mute monuments to Changchung's recent tenants. Americans Pass No one may enter or leave Changchung through the barbed wire which bars the main high ways without producing a pass. Vehicles bearing the American flag are an exception. Inside the city, life appears to be approximately normal. Street cars are running, power and water systems are function ing, and freedom ol movement is generally unrestricted except for miles of barbed wire which fence off many streets and army barracks. But parks are mostly overgrown with weeds and tail grass, roads are slowly falling into disrepair, and many beauti ful homes are abandoned or suf fering from lack of attention. The capital of Japan's Man chukuo the beginning of the greater east Asia co-prosperity empire is badly In need of a general house cleaning. Many large, modern buildings, includ ing the once impressive capital, have been gutted by fire or stripped and looted by succeed ing armies. The city population still in cludes some 230,000 Jananese technicians. That China will need many of these in rehabili tation and eventually in new in dustries developed goes with out saying. China at this mo ment is unable to fill the bill. For the most part Japanese now are doing menial jobs help ing to clear away debris, work ing in hotels or driving hun dreds of droshkys which have CARNIVAL it- 71 I fasfyff' rl no SV ar A srevicr. iai,&fe; W,orr-, "Well, I don't 'specinlly like his look im-sclf, Doc, lint lic'n flood to the children I' rrf"" "-fj.VJ!1.

KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. fl'o the Edilor) Why the alibi? Or Is all this rubuih for the pur pose of kclvfi'tlsing a show for August? During recent months The Herald News has afforded spue fur certain persons tu nie their opinions relative to their desire to change the name of one of the old Immigrant routls of soutliern Oregon, the one branching oTf from the older one lending Into California from tho southern end uf Ktiguo Riv er valloy. This Junrtlun Just un der the old landiiiiirk "Pilot Rock," this roud or trail I refer to, Inadi easterly across the Cus eudes and southeasterly across California Into Nevatta, to (he big bend of the Humboldt river. This roud located In 1846 has bcou known universally as the Applrgatc trail, the Applegate culofl or Appli-'giilo's route. It is caseiitiully an Applegate en terprise. The Applegate broth ers, Jesse and Lindsay, Instigat ed I ho Idea, organized the party, led tho exielitloii and paid the cost of aume from their personal funds lo the tune of several thtitisnnds of dollars. Their leadership was a natural, They were experienced survey ors, possessed the required equipment and were the literate members of tho expedition puny. This has been the known and accepted truth of this mat ter for the past too years. Fly In Ointment So It is obvious that for some reason, beat known In the name- changing parties, the name Ap- pieguie is me ny in tile oint ment. Why? I a m told they ad mit that they are historians, as they riso from the tall grass Ihnl hus flourished for a cen tury, and demand that page of history, depicting a truth be torn from the record and a fic tion be Inserted In its place. Citing a quotation credited to NupoTami "that history Is a he that has been agreed upon," the alibi that the old provisional government said something about repairs for a southern road. Is rather weak. It was quite natural that the provisional government, of whom Jesse Applegnte was a prominent member, located at Champorg In the northern part of the Oregon country, would refer to anything located In the southern purl of the country as of the south or southern area. Again, the nume south or southern is vitguo and confusing for there are, and were then, other southern roads: the Cali fornia, the Crescent City and later the Dead Indian. All these roads or trails wera used by Immigrants. All stem from the Mine region so why not i dis tinctive name, the one known, that It has had for the past 100 years. Cardinal Goodwin, Th D., pro fessor of American history of Mills college, has used the ac cepted map as of 1833, deplet ing "overland routes to the Pa cific," which has this road plainly murked "Applegate route." The old fellows who blazed this route and paid the cost are all dead and cannot answer any rumbles from the tall grass. Sort of reminds you of tho old fable of the "ass and the dead lion."
