Borah Ready 10 Aid
Efforts 10 Maintain
Trade With Japan
Views Told After Two
Coast Lumber Firms
Adopt Resolutions
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Senator Borah, Republican. OF
Idaho is "ready to cooperate" in
"all reasonable efforts to maintain
our general trade relations with
Japan, excluding always arms and
ammunition and implements of
war"
The veteran member OF the Sem
ate Foreign Relations Committee
expressed the belief yesterday that
1t was in the interest of peace to
continue relations with Japan after
expiration on January rs of the
trade pact with that country. He
made public his views in reply to
j. P. Herber of Seattle. Wash, over
a resolution adopted by two lum-
Der companies on the West Coast.
Adopted by the Grays Harbor
and Willapa Harbor Mills, the reso-
luton asserted uncertainty over flu
ture trade relations was seriously
affecting" placement of japanese
orders for Pacific Northwest forest
and lumber products.
The resolution urged that the
State Department be asked to an
nounce that ordinary trade, with the
possible exception of munitions,
would continue on the same basis as
before termination of the treaty.
Supplementing his telegram, Sen
ator Borah told reporters he felt
that Joseph c. Grew, United States
Ambassador to Japan, was using
excellent judgment" in his CONVEX
sations with Japanese officials con-
corning possible continuance of
trade relations.
Il feel that it is not only in the
interest of business but In the in
terest OF peace in the Far East to
maintain peaceful trade relations
with Japan" Senator Borsh said.
In urging this have no desire to
work wrong on China
AS a member of the Senate For
eign Relations Committee, Senator
Borah took an active part in con-
gressional discussions which pre-
coded notification of Japan by the
State Department that this country
intended to abrogate its 1911 COM
mercial treaty with that nation.

Hitler Spends Day
Inspecting Defenses
On Western Front
Germany Will Fight on
Until Victory Is Won,
Won Brouchitsch Says
Ry thf SSccia tod preSc

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN. Dec. 25.-In the COM
panionship of his soldiers, Adolf
Hitler is spending Christmas on the
German West Wall before Saar-
bruecken.
The Fuehrer arrived at the west
ern front Saturday and yesterday
visited the Gross Deutschland"
Regiment and scouting units at q
field airport.
Before joining last nights Christ
mas celebration he inspected num-
Der of anti-aircraft batteries in air
zone defense bunkers, as we'll as
German positions on the Spichern
Heights south of Saarbruecken.
The Christmas visit of Hitler,
first soldier" of Germany, to the
western front was announced by
Gen. Walther Won Brauchitsch last
night in a Christmas message to the
army
The commander in chief spoke
from village somewhere near the
German west wall in the presence
OF a company gathered in a small
hall decorated with evergreen trees
troops brought from the forest.
Only One Thing to Do.
"Only when we have won will we
be able to speak again of peace at
Christmas time Won Brauchitsch
said.
Beyond no mans land and in
England the destruction of Ger
many. our people and our culture
was proclaimed in this Christmas
period as war aim.
Under such circumstances there
is only one thing for the German
nation to do-fight the war forced
on us with full determination to
victorious end. The day will come
when the great German Reichs
living space for 100000 is secure,
for right is on our side"
Our entire nation is one single
wall facing west" Rudolf Hess, Nazi
party deputy leader, said in his ad-
dress broadcast to Germans
throughout the world.
%" Behind this wall stands Ger
many, armed to the teeth. Millions
stand ready to offer the entire liv-
ing strength of a nation which is
determined to give all for its rights,
liberty, honor and life.
War Blamed on Hate.
LAS far as our U-boats, destroy
ers. mine layers and torpedoes carry
their torpedoes and mines, as far
as the heavy cannon on our great
ships range, so far also extends the
might of National Socialistic Ger
many. 1t reaches as far as our pur-
suit and scouting planes and our
long distance bombers do battle. 1t
ranges as far as German soldiery.
This war originated out of hate
toward an industrious. aspiring,
stronger. growing Germany Jewish
capitalistic wire-pullers in England
and France modified their peoples
against us to destroy it,
Throughout Germany Christmas
activities centered around the fam
lily, although the war kept many
husbands and fathers from their
firesides. Leaves were granted a
certain percentage of married SOL
diers
Soldiers on the western front re-
manned alert, but those not on duty
gathered in barracks and bunkers
or wherever they happened to be
quartered for a few hours of Christ
mas relaxation.

admitting they were pretty glad
to see me-
AS matter of fact. the captain
was overjoyed to see them. He
wasn't sure he would get back for
Christmas to the children Who would
rather see than read about their
own personal Santa Claus.

The Polling store has been under
the management of J. E. Polling for
half a century A newspaper at Par
sons had the following to say of the
deal:
"While the passing of this old bus

ually noticed by everyone, the bust
ness also goes into the hands of a
we'll known mercantile company the
C. W. Harvey Company. The new
management will take charge of the
business about the 18th of the month
and we bespeak for the new owners a
continued public confidence as was al
ways held out for the J. E. Polling
Company"

COMMISSIONERS DECIDE
TO KEEP ROAD MACHINERY


Continued from Page One)
Browning, another committee mem
Der, stepped into the arena" and
urged Mr.. Friend to retire with thera
for a conference.
Legal Action Deferred
The conference of the committee
continued throughout the remainder
of the morning and although C. NJ.
RaiIey, committee member, stated that
they intended to carry out their plan
to institute legal proceedings, W. R.
Offutt, another interested party, stat
ed that no further action would be
taken until the committee had time
to examine the law more closely. Mr..
Railey said three attorneys were be-
ing engaged, but another committee
member said that no legal counsel had
been employed as yet.
D. Edward Offutt and Blaine Frantz
are other members Of the committee,
with N. C. Fraley, adviser, appointed
by a group of taxpayers last week to
meet with the County Commissioners
to ascertain the facts having to do
with the purchase of the road machin-
cry. 1t was at this meeting the COM
mittee demanded that the Commis-
sioners cancel their order, and also a.
that time the Commissioners agreed to
give their decision on Monday.
The shipment of part of the machin-
cry was temporarily halted following
a meeting in the Court House on De-
cember 81, in which the Commission
ers were criticized by a group of tax
payers led by W. R. Browning and
William Miller, for what they termed
unauthorized expenditure of public
funds"
At the beginning of the meeting on
Monday morning, julius Renninger,
Jr., attorney to the Board of Commits
sioners, stated that as far as any legal
question was involved, the Commits
sioners appeared to have perfect
right to purchase road machinery if
they saw fit to do so.
The Commissioners contend that the
purchase of this machinery will make
possible the building of 40 to so miles
of farm-to-market roads in year,
with the help of over 700 WPA work
ers, where they were getting 20 miles
or less of completed roads within the
period of twelve months previously,
and that the machinery would pay for
itself over period Of two or three
years. The machinery will also be used
on county roads, they stated.
The group of taxpayers opposing
the purchase, however, say that the
cost of roads to the county will be
greatly increased and fear big jump
in the tax rate. The levy will not be
made until February /.
