From the military viewpoint, the
United States could not give Brit
ain more aid than she is giving"
Corrlere said. Instead, perhaps by
entering the war she might give
less because she would have to con-
Germ herself with defense of her ma

A declaration of war also would
necessitate The withdrawal of
American diplomats from axis
countries, where they are the GUS

filled with the trials of corrupt
officials. In this State alone in the

Although the colleges and uni

b the Associated Press.
LONDON, Jan. 21.-The British
press used solemn superlatives to-
day to hail the inaugural address
of President Roosevelt which was
heard in millions of homes just after
blackout time.
Radio reception was just short of
perfect.
The Times said the speech was
zone of the most impressive and
successful broadcasts from America
ever heard in this country"
The Daily Telegraph: President
Roosevelt's third inaugural address
will become historic as decisive
declaration of the American spirit
in a time when the far future of
mankind is being determined
The voice from Washington has now
pronounced the doom of ultimate
failure on all the power of Naziism" :"
The Daily Herald: 1T was the
voice of democracy everywhere, past
and present, speaking through per-
feet instrument The speech was
q natural and glorious successor of
Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Ad-
dress. 1t was an extension of the
Gettysburg precept to meet the
needs of this infinitely graver hour
In democracy's history"
The Herald then quoted the
Gettysburg Address in full.
The News Chronicle said Mr.
Roosevelt month by month and
year by year has carried his country
men along with him in the greatest
campaign of political education that
any national leader has ever under
taken.
His message will be heard above
the tramp of Nazi boots and the
boastful clamor of tyrants
Hearing the Presidents confident
words above the din of battle we felt
we could almost see the flame of
liberty leap high"

Group Of l6 Investigates
State Land Commissioners

we don't know that there i
anything wrong. but we don't like
the way the sales Of timber on
state lands have been conducted.
We are digging into the matter
and hope to open the box 80 that
We can see what makes Il tick. e
Reference Is made 20 several
specific cases. one involves a sec
ton and a half Of timber in east
crn Washington appraised by the
state land commissioner office
for sale on July /. Because there
was not satisfactory evidence that
there had heen thorough inves-
tigation ~ the quality Of the tim
her and character Of the land. the
state superintendent asked that =
check cruise be made.
Part Of Watershed
The check was made by H. e.
Jones. a weli-known lumber cruis-
er. and Charles Bartholet, state
hydraulics engineer. Their report
revealed that this section and a
half contained one Of the finest
white pine stands In the state and
that the land was part OF water
shed in that area. To have cut
all the timber as had been proposed
would have destroyed the water
she'd.
on this showing the timber was
withdrawn from sale for the time
being but VIII be logged later on
sustained yield basis. That Will
save the watershed and encourage
new timber growth which viii
bring added revenue 10 the state
permanent school fund.
They Wonder Why
Members Of the Allied Commit
tee Of Sixteen wonder why the
land was recommended for sale
on the basis proposed by the state
land commissioners office.
Another case in which there is
deep interest concerns a tract
Of school land in Knckitat county
on which the timber appraisal is
said to have been so far below the
obvious value that a logging COM
pany which was interested finally
decided not TO bid This tract
also was withdrawn from sale for
the time being.
In several instances yalus-
tions put ON the timber by the
office OF the land commission
er have been increased by
check cruisers employed at the
direction of Gov. Langlie. At
"A recently scheduled sale on
the basis of the valuations
fixed by GOV. Langlie's check
cruisers there were no bidders.
The reason, according 10 the
land commissioners office II
that the figures were 80 high
that the logging companies
could not afford To bid.
The other side Of the story is
said To be that logging companies
