Sonnichsen as manager, state and national awards' for excellence came to the Hood River News and recognition to the men who were making the paper what it was. Ball headed the Oregon newspaper publishers association, became a member of the board of directors of the National editorial association. The younger Sonnichsen took his father's place. Ball carried oh. There was little that he couldn't and didn't do.

His background was one which any editor might well envy, his varied preparation, amplified by untiring industry, led to his editorial success. Born a Scot, British educated, he spent 17 years of his young manhood in Orient, chiefly as a foreign correspondent on the mainland and in Japan. Unwilling to depend on interpreters or to be limited to "handouts," he familiarized himself with Oriental languages. He could both speak and write Japanese. His foreign service spanned the period of the Russo-Japanese war and included its coverage.

He knew Asia as few Americans know it. An informed writer. Hugh Ball wrote lucidly and inter DAVENPORT ASSORTMENTS PRICES.

Or Is It? protects us will also protect others." He added that If Japan wants to protect herself against aggression, she can, If she wishes, share In the collective protection of her home Islands. But In the realm of protection from Internal uprisings Ihe Ja panese government and people will have the primary responsibility, he said.

His camera supplemented his Word pictures and he was a photographer of unusual ability. Working from notes, pencilled or carried in his mind, he would often write directly in type, setting his words in lines of metal, by-passing the intermediate process of copy writing. Photo-engraving stemmed naturally from his ability with the camera and in the dark room.

The Hood River News was one of the first of Oregon up-state papers to have its own engraving department and to illustrate its news stories with its own halftones. In course of time Hugh Ball became a citizen of the United States but it is a matter of record that long before the necessary formalities could be complied with he was meeting the obligations of citizenship, discharging all but those of voting, even serving with distinction on an important state commission as well as accepting civic tasks in his home community. Hugh G. Ball died this week at the age of 72. He was a "great editor, a conscientious public servant, a loyal American and a fine friend.

2 "li Japan will have to be responsible for her Internal security after a peace treaty Is signed, but the United States Is willing to Station troops In the country as a hindrance to aggression from outside, state department adviser John Foster Dulles said today. Dulles, here for discussions of the pending treaty, made his first public statement In Japan at a meeting of the America-Japan soi ciety. He said the U. S. Is willing to give military aid to her former enemy under the recent action by the United Nations general assembly providing for the gradual creation of an adequate Interna' tionai ponce force.

"Under such a security pro gram, based bn cooperation with japan and our other friends, the United States would sympatheti cally consider retention of United States armed forces In and about Japan as a testimony to unity between our countries," Dulles said. "We are prepared to combine our power with that of others In mutual committals In accord with the United Nations charter So that the deterrent power which As director of the. Pacific northwest forest and range experiment station: Dr. J. Alfred Hall was in top command wer the Pringle falls experiment station as well as over three other like forest service activities in the state.

As director Dr. Hall has been well known in central Oregon forest circles and among many other groups as a highly well-informed and able speaker. Now he" Is going to Madison, Wisconsin as director of the forest products laboratory. He will be missed here in the northwest but we doubt if a better man could be found for the Madison position and so, while regretting his going, we congratulate him and the forest service on his appointment to this new position. A Washington columnist not, by the way, Drew Pearson has written an intimate account of a conference with President Truman held by Senator Morse.

It purports to present, in direct quotations, what each said to the other. The president does not'give subh reports of conferences and it, therefore, becomes obvious that this report came from Morse. That is not surprising but it is somewhat odd to find Morse saying; 1'1've got to find out once and for all just whom the administration considers the senator from whether it is Warren Magnuson, Democrat, Washington, or myself. Orperhaps, it is hot odd for Morse to forget that Oregon does have another senator. Washington (NEA) Supposf the French government decided to pull out of Viet Nam.or what used to be called French Indo-Chlna.

Bear in mind that the French government hasn't decided to do tnis. But lust for the sake of this argument, assume that the French government should decide that, having spent $2 billion and sustained 19.000 Yencn casual ties trying to defeat Ho Chin- minh and the Viet-Minh communists, there was no point in furth er fighting. If the French should adopt any such surrender policy as is pre-' sented in the hypothetical case above, the howl of protest neard the United States would be terrific. The French would be brand ed as unreliable allies. They would be accused of cowardice.

Turn this horrible example around, look at it from the other direction, and you will get some faint idea of how Europeans feel about recent suggestions that the United States get out of Korea. Because of these irresponsible and thoughtless demands, European opinion has criticized the United States for wanting to quit, for being undependable and unwilling to stick to the bitter end. This is what comes of not being able to sec ourselves as others see us. It works both ways, of course. Americans have been unable to understand why the French and British have traded so extensively with red China, while fighting Chinese commies in Viet Nam and Malaya.

And the apparent European heel-dragging on rearming against the threat of Russian ag gression from the east has been incomprehensible. So the mutual criticism may be all to the good. It should sharpen alertness to responsibilities in both Europe and America. But along with it, there should be a full appreciation of what the other fellows have been contributing to the world struggle against communism. Franco has Been lighting the commies in Viet Nam for nearly five years, with 150,000 men.

The British have had a force of per-hups half that strength in Ma laya, in a less active guerrilla war; The United htatcs has been in Korean fighting about seven months. France and Britain have been spending nearly as large a percentage of their na tional Income on defon.se as the United States eight per cent for the British and French against eight and a half for the U.

year, this will not hold true. The $-11 billion U. S. defense budget win represent is per cent of U. b.

national income. The British 54 billion budget will be 13 per cent, the French $2 billion, 11 per cent. Britain and France have universal military service. The United States is just considering It. Britain is putting 1,000,000 men under arms, which is 2 per cent of her population of 50 million.

One-fifth of the British forces are on, garrison duty in some 20 countries overseas. France is mobilizing 800.000 roiinjn her, armed forces. This is 1 per cent of her population of Vi million. The United States proposes to increase its armed forces to 3.500,- 000 men. This would be 2.3 per cent of the U.

S. population of lai million. So contributions of the Ihree powers are about equal. There are no hard and fast ratios on forces to be put into the European defense army as yet. But assuming the 60-dlvision force idea is carried through, France would supply 20 divisions, with the United States and Bri tain supplying up to 10 each.

Here France, with the smallest population, would carry the biggest load. What these comparisons reveal is that it ill-behooves any of the politicians of any of the powers to throw accusations and recrim inations at any of the others.
