These Days By GEORGE E. 80KOLSKV NOW that ERP has fought its way through con gress and will undoubtedly be passed in a very changed form, the Important question Is. who is to administer it? The roving ambassador will undoubt edly be Lewis Douglas, who is a competent and experienced person, having seen service in the legis lative and executive branches of government, in private business and in diplomacy. He is a capable negotiator and while he served under both President Roosevelt and Truman, he has never been a new dealer and cannot be Included among those who got u into our present mess. For the administrator of ERP, live names have been suggested which merit our attention: William L. Clayton, Paul Q. Hoffman, Krlc Johnston, Ferd inand Ebemadt and John J. MrCloy of the World bank. Of the five, William L. Clayton ought to be ex cluded on the ground that he was In the stale de partment when It got the United States Into most ol its present difficulties and he negotiated the British loan which was misrepresented to the Amer ican people by our government. In a word, w hat this country needs most Is a clean sweep. It reo,uiies men who have had no connection with the structure 'of untruths that brought down upon our heads a situation the consequences ol which we cannot fore see. Everybody connected with Teheran. Valla and Potsdam, with the (Quebec conference and the Mor genthau plan, with the propagandists untruths sur rounding the British loan ought to be retired from public life. That is the only way to produce an ob jective view of our current problems. Apart from this general principle, I have no criticism to offer of Clayton. Another Blank PAUL O. HOFFMAN is the president of the Stude baker company and operates the commute for economic development, known as the C.ED., which has gained considerable popularity among business men. He is a likeable person, an excellent speaker and good public relations counsel. I know of nothing In his career that would fit htm to administer ERP. Eric Johnston Is much the same type as Paul O. Hoffman He has been president of the chamber of commerce of the United States and now holds Will Hayes job with the motion picture Industry He recently negotiated successfully an agreement with the British government for the motion picture industry. Apart from that, he has neither the ex perience nor the qualifications to administer ERP. Neither Hoffman nor Johnston could be counted on to do anything that might make them unpopu lar, no malter how right and beneficial to the nation the courting ol unpopularity might be. Clayton. Holfman and Johnston are big spenders who would probably end up by asking for more. I. as one citizen, have no confidence in their capacity to resist European, particularly British, blandishments. rerdlnand Eberstadt. by training, experience, char acter and knowledge, tits the post. But Truman may resist his appointment. Eberstadt is a banker and Industrialist and Truman, in his present terror of Wallace, might resist appointing bankers to im portant positions, even though, as regards ERP. it Is a banking position which can best be filled, only by a banker. It is being suggested that Secretary of Defense Forrestal may object to Eberstadt. This is difficult to believe as both men made their careers in the same banking house. Dillon. Read, and have often been associated. Eberstadt was chair man of the army and navy munitions board. 1W2: he w-as vice chairman of the war production board. 142-3: he prepared the Eberstadt report for the secretary of the navy, 1945, the aforesaid secretary being Forrestal: he was a member of Bernard Baruch's atomic energy commission and did yeoman service In that fight. Eberstadt would not only do an efficient Job but he will protect the United States of America and blandishments would make no dif ference. John J. McCloy has done a first-rate job as head of the World bank and would be splendid in this position. My vote would be either for Eberstadt or McCloy. If one or the other would be willing to undertake the job. Eberstadt would go to It with good references which would include Bernard Baruch and Herbert Hoover; McCloy has the standing of ex cellent accomplishments In a difficult office.

Also there Is a general Impression that cancer Is attacking more and more people. This last Is perhaps not really true.

Pa., April 1 0Ps Down south by now the dogwood blooms are stirring, but here in the Pocono mountains patches of snow still hide from the warm fin gers of the sun. The robin has begun to out shout the chick adee only in the last few days. The squirrel patters a c r oss the roof top in morning glee. The trout In the busy brooks be gin to dream ol wayward files. And here, with spring ready to touch Its torch to the countryside and turn the hills into green bon fires. I have to go back to the city again. Back to the concrete forests and the subway, where you tell the changing seasons by the way chew ing gum sticks to your feet. And I hate to go. Every time I spend a week In the woods I come to believe anew with the poet that "God made the coun try, and man made the town." Yes, mankind made the cities, and mankind is stuck with them and In them. Mankind has lost touch with nature and become the prisoner ol its own Inventions. Much Wisdom Much wisdom lies In legend and myth, and there Is an old Greek myth that explains mans plight pretty well. It concerns Antaeus, a Libyan giant and wrestler. This African pioneer grunt and groan artist was no character to meet In a dark alley. He was the son ol Poseidon, god ol the sea. and Gaea. the earth mother. Like all wrestling exhibitions his had a gimmick. But Antaeus never asked his manager to lix his mat ches in advance. The secret ol his success was that whenever his body touched the earth his mother his strength redoubled. Thus he was Invincible until a wise muscle artist named Hercules came along. This outdoor Jimmy Lcndos simply grabbed Antaeus, held him up In the air and throt tled him. Antaeus became helpless once he lost contact with mother earth. So do we all. As we more and more lose touch with nature, the wellspring of our simple animal joys and vegetable pleasures, we lose our zest and sparkle. We find ourselves doing more things through a sense of duty and fewer things for pure fun. We work to get things we don't need or real ly want. I was running off at the chin like this the other night to a doctor who built himself a place In the woods. "That's all fine theory." he said. "but you can carry this back-to- nature stull too lar.

So successfully has been the campaign to get the benefits of early diagnosis that many people are constantly alarmed about cancer. FINDING A C'Ll'E There is no one certain test which will reveal the presence or absence of cancer anywhere In the body. Nevertheless a person who has been examined for cancer and In whom It has not been found should cease to worry. The answer to the cancer problem is research and Investigation. Re sults cannot be expected in a short time unless there is some lucky break or brilliant obesrvation. But In the long run some clue should be found to the cause or treatment which will still further Improve the present situation.

IT'S ASPIRIM AT ITS BEST Hm In the Jart that there waa no such office as Klamath Falls In 1878 and 1878. The first post office in the vicin ity of what was later Keno was called Whittles Ferry. It was es tablished September 22. 1878. with Robert Marple first postmaster. Ap parently the ferry was operated by Robert Whittles and the office was named for him. There was some ob jection lo the name of the office, possibly because It was in two words. A change In name was necessarv. Captain Appleeate then suggested the name Plevna, a word then prominent In the news of the Russo Turlclsh war. The name of the post office was changed from Whittles Fern' to Plevna on Januarv 9. 1878. However, the Plevna post office was later moved away to Juniper Ridge, much to the disgust of Its patrons. In August. 1887. they secured a new olflce and named It Keno, for Cap tain D. J. Ferrees bird dog. The story of this phase of the business will be found In Oregon Geographic Names, page 287, under Keno. The undersigned thinks that It would be lnterellng to know whether the man who ran the ferry ana was later postmaster was Rob ert Whittle or Robert Whittles. It seems probably that someone should know the correct spelling of the name. Also, when the office was moved away where was It placed? Captain Applegate told me that It went to Juniper Ridge, but I could never get a more definite statement and I have not been able to Iden tify Juniper Ridge. Perham Mr 8nowgoose may know the answer to tnis one. There are some other mvsterles about post office names southwest of Klamath Falls. Where was Forest post office which operated from 1902 to 1908. and waa then discon tinued to Keno? Nathan 8. High waa the first postmaster and Clara E. Wright waa next. 8now post office waa established June 22, 1894. Does anybody know wny it wns named? Certainly It was not established at a season when there would be much snow on the ground. Why was Topsy post office so named In 1884? And where was Wampus post office, which was es tablished In 1908 with E'igene Spen cer postmaster? It would be pleas ing to have the answers to these questions In the records. Yours faithfully, Lewis A. McArthur. Public Service Bid., Portland, Ore. FLOOD OArtlKS The time of arrival and Height of the top of a flood can be pre dicted with remarkable accuracy, according to the Encyclopedia Bri tannlca. with the help of gauges In the river's tributaries and full I Information of the rainfall over the : basin area. Rtuuia hat made a daring and dangerous move In decreeing pre sumptuous and obnoxious In.-iwllim of American. Ilrltlsh and French railway trains bound for lleilln. which Ilea Inside (he Boy let tone of occupation. By taking thla drastic step the Muscovlles have, of course, made a iiirect challenge to the olher three allies. It It a tort of schoolyard bully i "I-dare-you -knock . the-chip- off - my. shoulder'' affair, The purpose of this move, at viewed by au thortlat I v e sources In Wash ington and Mer lin. It lo create situation calculated to force the western powers out of the Clerniau capital, which has been in Joint occupation ever since the war. The boUhevlsis If succeMful would thus have complete iNesjiltn of the rich eastern portion of the relch, Including Its cupltnl, which nut only is the hub of Kurnpcan transporta tion but Is the apple of the German eye. No Kuxs at All The reaction of the weMrru allies wds what the Russians must have anticipated refusal to submit to such tnseoiion. However. Ocn. Lu cius D. Clay, the two-luted Ameri can military governor, put after his refaml an exclamation point which the reds scarcely could have ex pected. The general announced, without tu.ts or feathers, that the Americans would use alrplaltea to carry passengers and freight Into Berlin to the V. 8 -controlled Tem- plehof airdrome. That very neatly puts It up to the ! Russians to declare their Intentions. They now must take the Initiative. ' So far as one can see. the only way they could prevent the Americans and olher western allies from em I ploying alrpliines would be to ue .anti-aircraft guns -an act of war. j It certainly would be stretching the Imagination to believe that the I reds Intend to perpetrate an out right act of war against am of the ; allies. There is no indicution that ! Russia wants war. though the In- tends to grab all she can short of embarking on armed aggression, j So I think we are safe In assum : lug that this latest i(rlullous af- front was Intended inalulv s an ; other move In Moscow's war of ' nerves ag:ilnst tile 'Irmorrarlo.v However, we shouldn't overlook that the bolshevists may have some anxiety regarding the nature of allied ralhvny truffle In any event. General Clav has adroitly handed them the hot end of the poker, and it's now up to Uiem to declare their Intentions. Actually laspectlon of passengers on many allied trains, passing through Soviet territory to Berlin, has been going on for a long time and has caused much feeling. I encountered It myself on a British train tn 1948. FUNNY BUSINESS ,n inm "Don't lt K tctirt you, deiir look right back at It!"

Whereas Wallace has often drcrlrd the large sums of money being siient today for the army and navy, a majority of Wallace followers polled by the Institute say they favor In creasing the tire of the airforre. and as many favor Increasing the navy as oppose It. Only with respect lo the size of the army la the weight of opinion among Wallace followers In favor of his position against a large army. In short, the big fact Is that while the majority of Truman followers support his position on the Marshall Plan. Russia, and the armed lories, the men and women who plan to vote for Wallace do not show a similar degree of agreement with their leaders on such Issues. The main thing which Ihe members of Wallace's "Oldeon's Army" have In common Is being against all other candidates. NATIONALLY the Wallace vole today runs between 6 and a per cent in polls by the Institute. Translat ing this natlunnl pcroentiigc Into votes dciiends, however, on whether the Wallace party can get on the of ficial election ballot In all ttates, which it not likely. If the voting turnout In Novem ber It at the same rate aa It was be fore the wnr, the total vote would be approximately 58.000.000. The Wal lace vote based on polls at Ihe pres ent Ume would theoretically run to between 3.5O0.O0O and 4,000,000 If the party were able to get a place on the ballot In 48 states.
