M. f J (Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLET I HDEMWrnCATION of relstlves of victim of the Bly Jsp balloon tragedy of May t, IMS, as pro- 1 potted In a bill now In congress. Is full; Justified by what w know about the incident. 2 Prior to the blast that killed five children and a woman, the war department main tained an airtight censorship on the Jap balloon story. Although the balloons were fly ing over the Northwest, and many had landed, the newspapers were not permitted to print even the fact that the Japanese were try ing to land the fantastic devices i on the western coast of America. '1 The miblio was kent In the dark on the whole thing, except for word-of-mouth rumor. Our own J opinion was that the fact that tha .lamnw vera, attemrtHnff tn EFLET balloon-bomb the D. S-, with no specific report! of balloons being seen anywhere. 1 would have served to Inform and warn the U. 8. 2 public, at the same time withholding any valuable Information from the Jape. J But the government censors wouldn't tee It that way until after the Bly tragedy. On June 1, IMS, after the whole story was dls I closed to the public I said In this column: J The censorship was so successful that It can be l narked down today as responsible for the deaths of ' five children and a minister's wife In the woods near J BIT. All Indications are that none of them knew 1 a boat Jap balloons and their danger when they dls- covered the Instruments lying in the woods near the Dairy creek road." J Subsequent to the blast, I went to Bly and talked to relatives of the victims. What I learned In those i Interviews was convincing evidence that the tragedy would never have occurred if the public had been J warned that the Japs were seeking to land balloons i In this region which certainly would not have been 1 telling the Japs anything they dldnt already know. i As a matter of fact. It was the Bly Incident that broke the story. After about three weeks, the war I department decided to lift censorship enough to let J people know that the Bly people had been killed by a balloon bomb. (Previously. It had been reported t as a blast of undetermined origin, which most people around here thought was', navy bomb dropped by a plane.) i Again quoting this column on June 1, 1945: Had the warning come sooner, with hard-hitting I bat lea tragio emphasis, the Incident Itself might j kava been averted." I in congress yesterday, the house passed a bill to pay damages of 130,000 to relatives of the victims. The measure now goes to the senate. It should be j passed. j j Briefs From Tha Pocket File J A ITHOUT any favorite son or other complica- VY tions, Dewey and Stassen will fight it out on l the open ground for Oregon's republican presidential ! preference . . .

SOKOLSKY OEBBELs wrote In his diary: V37 ". . . This war was started because of a midget slate: but now, when It has reached the decisive culminating point, such states allegedly have no right to exist any more. All fundamental conceptions of how nations are to live together seem upside down In this wild spiritual and political confusion. Therein lies our great chance." The midget nation to which the nail chieftain referred was Poland, a country of 150,470 square miles, with S4.77O.000 human beings. Suppose It were smaller; suppose the population were smaller do those people not have an Inalienable right to a gov ernment of their own choosing? The United States failed to answer that question affirmatively at Teheran, Yalta and Potsdam. And so Poland has gone out of existence, having become a mere province of Soviet Russia. The principal loser of that error of Judgment Is not Poland, It Is the United States. When the presl dent of the United Stales Is worried by the prospect of war, he faces the specter of unforgivable errors made by his predecessor, his advisers and associate who were guided neither by moral principle nor by International law but by the whims and practicalities that came to them. Therefore, we lost a war and may be forced by circumstances to do it over again. U. S. Was Eoger HENRY L. ST1MSON. In his memoirs, published in the "Ladies Home Journal," says of this: . . Much of the policy of the United State toward Russia, from Teheran to Potsdam, was domi nated by the eagerness of the Americans to secure a firm Russian commitment to enter the Pacific war. And at Potsdam there were Americans who thought still In terms of securing Russia's help In the Pacific war. Stimson . . . was disturbed to find that a part of the Russian price was a Soviet lease of Port Arthur and Soviet participation with the Chinese In the control of the Manchurtan railways. This agree ment was accompanied by a Russian promise to leave the Chinese in full control of Manchuria, but In the light of the Polish situation Russian promises of this character no longer seemed reliable . . . In a word, those in charge of our war In the Par East were not capable of appraising our capacity to fight or win. They permitted this country to be blackmailed by an enemy, disguised as an ally, who made such demands as we had rejected from the day of the John Hay open door policy In 1899 to the Hull ultimatum of November 36. 1941. We went to war with Japan over Manchuria, but at Yalta. Roose velt agreed to author! re Russia to exercise the very rights In Manchuria which had brought on Pearl Harbor. Therefore, we lost the Far Eastern war, for whereas we pushed the Japanese out of Manchuria, we pushed the Russians Into it. They were engaged In the Far Eastern war for six days; yet out of It they received Manchuria, half of Korea, membership in the council which pretends to control General MacArthur, and the stores of the Kuantung army, the best equipped of the Japanese military forces, which they have pre sented to the Chinese communists for the purpose of conquering the whole China. Cost Of Errors BECAUSE of these errors, we may have to do the Far Eastern war over again at huge cost of life and wealth. The responsibility for these errors cannot be shirked either by those who made them or their apologists. For should this American civilization fall. It will be because It representatives at Teheran. Yalta and Potsdam were without either moral sponsibility or respect tor this country's International obligations. So we are In peril of war and we need to know the truth. Yet Professor Frederick Schuman of Williams college, writing In "Soviet Russia Today," makes the point, with regard to the publication by the state department of the documents relating to the Stalin-Hitler alliance: ". . . What Is entirely without precedent, so far as I can discover, is the publication of documents from the archives of a vanquished enemy for the purpose of defaming a recent ally ..." In a word, the American people may only pay taxes for war; they may only die for their country but under no circumstances are they to know the truth. SIDE GLANCES 111 ' mtiKt.

In just a couple ot minutes You hear an awful roar A combination of gasps and groans Then a book falls to the floor. Your eyes stray to the davenport Sure enough he's there , With his mouth a gappln' open And his snoring fills the air. It's then you start to wonder Whaterer did you see In that horrible monster lying there For all the world to see. Oh, if only he could guess The thoughts that's In your head Such as he'd look a lot more peace ful If he were lying dead. Then all at once you hear a sound It's something like a scream With a Jerk, a laugh and a little snort That thing 1 haying a dream. Well, by and by he opens his eyes eyes He stretches and rubs his nose And starts thinking of his stomach So to the kitchen he goes. Ye gods, I hear him coming His face I'll hate to see When he looks upon that davenport And finds the likes of me.

The World Today By nfWITT MACKENZIE AP roraiin Affair Analyst aroTT 'W rl. M ?w. OoW.ti Mockemlei Youths Face Theft Charge State police had another session with a Juvenile group Involved In larceny of tools, batteries and tires, and four will have petitions filed In Juvenile court while their 18-year-old companion, Calvin Noble of Henley, faces a charge of petty larceny. He Is at liberty under 1200 ball. All Involved are Henley district teen-agers, officers said. The youngsters were picked up late Tuesdny afternoon. Officers said the loot recovered was estimat ed around 175 and activities of the group was the combination of "devilment and usage." One of the batteries, taken from a state grader working on the Lower Klamath lake road, was found In a tractor. Bat teries and tires reported stolen from the Henley garage In February, were also recovered. Antl-romniuntst forces appear to have won a smashing victory for freedom in the Italian national rlecilmia-a victory likely to have a fiir-rriuhlng Influeiu-e on the cold war between Hussla and the denioc. rarlr-s. Premier Alclde de Oasierl' Christian democrat and other right wing parties have aulflrlpnt f lead so that Vice Premier Summit has an nounced "t h ! c o m m u n I a ta will not be ad mitted into Italy's nrwgnv ment." If that proves to be true It will rep resent a sensa tional defeat for the numeri cally greatest communist party out- sicie Kiissia. SnniKnt. head of the anti-red socialists. Interpreted the unwt thus: "The Italian election means a re birth of democracy In Europe. The victory ot democratic forces la a great aetbark to Russia and commu nist plans for expansion. Itnly la now a part of Western Euroie and not of the Balkans." Caution Needed That's what we like to read, but Id's temner oil' exullatlon with a bit of cnutlon. Even If final returns bear out the prevnt estimate, we mustn't overlook this; t'ntll Italvs first full-Hedged postwar parliament meets next month and elrts a new president there will be dnnper of a Bolshevist revolt. Communist lender Togllntll has promised Ihnt the reds wont use force but observers aren't mak ing any beta on surh assurance Rnnnat himself warns that "the election doesn't mean the final de feat of communism In Italy," ailcl-ln- "This is more difficult because the communist cannot be fought by police measures, but only through social measures. The communist party will remain strong here as H is today in France." However. If present returns bear out their nroml.se. Bolshevism lias been soundly thrashed In the first big showdown outside Russia's East ern Eurnpean rone where the reds have Imnosed their will of force Communism has been thrust down unwilling throats In the Soviet do main, but Itrtlv has had the strength to resist It desnlte the rhantle eon. dttlon In whleh the war left her. As Premier De Oasnerl said, the coun try Just wouldn't "be hclshevlred." Conrare Shown That's mlghtv encouraging for the rest of Western Europe and for the countries of the western hemisphere where the reds are bor ing In through their fifth col umnlsts. Italv has given a fine ex hibition of courage. Italy Is now nearer real freedom than she has been slnre Mussolini took over and Inaugurated police rule In 1923. If she now can con solidate her victory over Bolshevism, she will become a vltRl base for the forces of democracy. She guards the southern flank of Western Eu rope.
