JAN UARY o, 1871
During the night there was a
Southeasterly wind blowing that
drove before in a fierce rain storm.
Streams sprang up on the hillsides
surrounding Juneau and poured
down the draws with great fury.
The wind, combined with a rainfall
of Alb inches in the "a hours end
ing at noon, presented a peculiar
situation for this time of year.
Forest Ranger Walter G. Hellan,
who had been stationed at Juneau
since July, had rendered his resig-
nation to the Department Of Agri-
culture to take effect on the 10th.
He was to go in partnership with
his brother-in-l law, Edward T. Ryan,
in opera ting the Home Grocery.

the River division of the White

A new glass front had been COM

Enterprise Foundry. The old front
was blown out by the heavy winds.
Messrs. Harry Bomb. Ole Traum-

from leading CalifornianS that hadn

ers in the state-that Radm was uni

other than Radn'S verbal denlals has
ever been made.
,. Governor Olson granted full PNecu-
tive pardonS to six defendants VINO had
been convicted and had served prison
terms for criminal syndicaliSm. Before
a man is convicted of criminal syndlcal-
ism. il must be proved that he advocated
overthrow of the American government.
The governor restored citizenship TO
these men without even demanding pledg-
es of LOYALTY to the American COnStltu-
ton, if reports are 10 be believed.
3. President Roosevelt signed bll lion

ical New Deal logic, the bill requires only
that applicant for work relief sign a
statement that they are not members or
the German merican Bund or of any
organization advocating overthrow OF

Does anyone really believe that person
attempting to overthrow this government
would stop at lying about their inten-

GESTURES WILL NOT
PROTECT AMERICA

We need more than gestures and ora
tory to protect this country against
Fifth Column activities.
AS long as the officials of our gov
ernmeat insist upon coddling, and even
helping persons suspected OF having or
known to have subversiVe tendencies, we
are no more safe than lamb in lions
cage.
Max Radn should not have been APP
pointed TO one Of the states highest judi
ciary posts. Perhaps he is a hundred per
cent American-but he will have to prove
it before a lot of people will believe it
and he should give the proof elsewhere
than on the supreme court bench.
Criminal SyndicalstS, no matter what
the condition, should never be pardoned.
They are the leaders among subversive
groups, the persons who advocate violent
overthrow Of the government. They
would not hesitate TO lie about changing
their minds, if the lie would help achieve
their foul ambition.
No trust should be placed in the word
of anyone when it comes to advocating
overthrow Of the government. person
who does so would not admit it. If we
are to have legislation barring such peO-
pie from relief rolls, lets make it IegiSla-
ton with tccth-not highly idcalistic but
completely unWOrkablc.

FIRST. A REAL PLAN
OF ACTION
(Wall Street JournaN

This newspapers Washington bureau
advises il that the President may shortly
submit to Congress a new national pro
gram involving additional approprla-
tons for creation of new industrial facll-
tiles and for acquisition of war equip
ment. Its purpose is to provide Ior the
needs of a very large national army. Our
correspondent expects the request to take
the form of provision for contract author
iZationS on such scale as to put the pro
duction of the needed supplies on a mass
production basis The cost of this new
program might be as much as S5,00O,000.
The equipment contemplated is essential
y of the mechanical type, and will in
cude all kinds needed for the War de-
partment and the air corps.
Appropriations and authorizations al
ready passed by or pending in Congress
amount to something over S5,000,00O,-
600, exclusive of the Nays request,
which involves 81 1000 900 more. As
Stunning the new program to be adopted,
the total appropriations for national de-
Tense will reach a total of SIS 100000
600.
ApprOprating money for defense Is
one thing and tranSlatlng the money INTO
work done is quite another, and 1t is most
important lDdl the TWO De llOl COIL uStu
To carry out the program envisaged in
the above would, as our correspondent
says, entail degree of industrial mobil
cation that would in effect place the in
duStria life of the nation on a virtual
war footing Obviously. also, the task
of expanding such colossal sums would
have to be spread over considerable
period of time But time is admittedly
of tho pSSpnco the SItuatlOO
We have here potentialitieS of enor-
nous waste and confusion unless we have
a definite plan under definite control by
a central authority in whom all have con-
fidence, and his powers must be such as
to exclude any and al interference from
any outside influences or intereSts-ahOvc
all from politics. A divided control would
be fatal to results. We are neither ready
to hand over our industrial economy to
a dictator for use in carrying out an
operation that we do not in advance
know and approve, nor are we going to
consent to fritter our money and our la
Dor in an uncOordinated series of efforts
under separate controls, actuated not
merely by different ideas but also per
haps by mixed motives.
The "security' that we are now seek
ing in our defense effort is not the thing
that we have been talking about under
that name in the last few years. 1t does
not connote lease" and cannot be obtain
ed by easy" ways. It is going to cost
sacrifice. 1t should be our concern to
see that our sacrifice shall not be wasted
Imperial Valley press., 1940-06-28

In the melancholy discussions OF
the fall of France, many elements
are mentioned. Some speak of the
failure to provide adequate mechan-
ical fighting tools. Some speak of
preoCcupation with social reform
to the detrimcnt of industrial pro-
duction. Some speak of Fascist
Fifth Co!amn work. Some stress
Communist disruption. Others talk
Of an outmodcd reliance on static
defense and poor information on
what Germany really had.
The cause of SO catastrophe a
downfall as that Of the French
can never be simple. All the ele-
mentS suggested above, and prob
ably many more, had great deal
to do with it. The reasons simply
are not fully known at present.
Perhaps many years will be re-
quired to clear UP this bewildering
collapse.
Then why go into it at all? For
the same reasons that any au-
topSy is held-an effort to deter
mine cause of death for the possible
protection of those still living. We
owe ourselves the duty of trying
to learn for our own benefit every
lesson that can be cleaned from
the European tragedy.
Talk to person who inclineS to
the German point of view. and he
will blame the Communists. France
was rotten with Communism he
will say. "A nation with real will
power would have cleaned them
all out long ago" And it is GER
tainly true that France was in
in general strike less
than month after Hitler's legions
marched into the Sudeten territory
of CzechOslovakia. 1t is true that
the Communist line was to Whis-
per This is an imperiaIistic war
for the profit of the bankers II
give no aid to preparation" (Bv
the way. it is still that in the
United States today)
Talk to person who travels
the Communist party line. and he
will hint darkly of the Croix dc
Ecu. French Fascist league. and
hint that high French leadership
was not beyond being tainted. And
it is certainly true that experience
in Belgium, Holland and Norway
strongly suggests that there may
have been something to it. BY
the way. arc there no persons in
the United States today who Slylv
