Dulles' remarks about the nature and amount of Chinese Commu nist aid to the Red-led Vletmlnh rebels In Indochina conform ex. Miy 10 rrencn Intelligence re ports, the spokesman said. The independent newspaper L' oc or the largest in France, said in an editorial Dulles 'clearly rccornlzed" that if ,h Oeneva conference on Asian ques tions is a failure, France will not be expected to enrry on the Indo china war with only her troops. "It Is not our Job to orotect with our army alone the keystone of the Far East,- the paper aald. . . . Dulles very clearly recognlicd that, and we commend him for It.

Alderson took this action after the court upheld a defense motion to rule out any testimony the pro secution might offer concerning an alleged confession to the theft of a case of tomato Juice from Pa cific Fruit Express refrigerator car at Crescent Lake. Following a full day of prosecu tion testimony Monday, Judge Van- denberg held that the state had failed to prove that a crime bad been committed. Alter sustaining the district at torney's motion to dismiss! the case. Judge Vandenberg explained to the Jury why such action was manda tory under the laws ot Oregon. "AU that has been proven In this case up to now," the Judge said, "is t'.-.at a seal on a refrigerator car was broken. Breaking a seal on a reirigerator car is not a crime in the state of Oregon. The state has not produced any evidence that ourgiary was committed." The trial Tl,a mtrmmA it A1. derson called fit.!. Don,..

Just as black ISN'T white. I'm afraid at times that I'm getting to be a drawer of morals and NOBODY can be a worse bore In these modern daya than one who goes around all the time drawing morals. Especially if the morals tnat are drawn seem to point out that people shouldn't do (because it is Immoral) the things they wani TO DO." That brings up another thought. It Is amaslng the lengths to which people will go In order to be able to do with a clear con science IMMORAL THINO8 that thev WANT to do. Stanton Deia- plane, the San Francisco Chron icle's always interesting and often bitinalv satirical columnist, cited an amusing instance of that the other day. Californians, he slid, are un easily aware that saloons are im moral institutions. Therefore, in order to be both highly moral and ABLE TO DO THE THINGS THEY WANT TO DO. they fixed it up when prohibition ended, so that California would have no sa loons. Thev decreed by law that liquor can be served only where food served. Thus when they feel the um to h'lst one they can clear their consciences by reflecting that they aren't going into- a wicked saloon but are Just dropping into a restaurant. Along 'the same line Califor nians, craving to be moral but still liking to play poker, put Into their constitution a clause to the effect- that DRAW POKER, isn't gambling it's a game of skill. That fixed everything up satisfactorily. I regret to have to add that this tendency to make everybody pure and moral by law while at the same time permitting people to do the things they WANT to-do doesn't stop at the 42nd parallel. It slops over into Oregon. ' Ud here we put Into our consti tution a clause (containing ai many teeth as an alligator's mouth) forbidding lotteries. We did that to prevent an Oregon state lottery - similar to the sinful Louisiana state lottery. At the time, that was strictly OK. Nobody was much interested, In early Oregon; in state lotteries. But later en somebody Invented Jigger caned parl-mutuel ma chinewhich Is a lottery if there ever was one. That permitted us to kid ourselves that BETTXNO BY VR7 Auxiliary Holds Meeting MALIN Ladies Auxiliary 'to the Veterans of Foreign, Wars, Post No. 8147, met In regular was ion March 23 at the Veterans Post.' ...
