The Helen Salisbury . acle was reached not when Henry Wallace was Reuten McCracken nored in the most recent outpouring for the part he Mrs. Edwin Steffen . aved in developing hybrid corn but when in 1942 a Alvin Wadleigh . woman bacteriologist was awarded a prize for the dis- covery of “Soviet penicillin.” The phenomenon is not new. Germans and Eng- lishmen have long claimed that they invented the telegraph and not Morse, that they had electric lamps as soon as Edison did, that Fulton was not the inventor of the steamboat. The truth is there are no “first” inventors. Discoveries and inventions evolve. Volta had to precede Farady, and Morse and Bell would have been helvless without Faraday's discoveries. Karl Marx was one of the first to point out that tech- nologists respond to social needs, that every invention an aggregation of well-known elements, that tech- nical geniuses are not unique but inevitable in a scientifically minded and mechanized society. The Russians are therefore violating a cardinal doctrine of their economic divinity and proving themselves to be as chauvinistic as any “bourgeois” nation of the West has ever been. What is more, some of the inventions for which they now claim credit were developed under the capitalistic Czars—a circumstance that has still to be explained. Propaganda has never before been used by a gov- ernment o widely and so systematically to claim scien- | tific and technological superiority over the rest of the | world. Where this will end no one can foretell, but it should not astonish the “imperialistic” West to learn from Moscow that it was not Galileo who first turned the telescope on the stars and planets but some Gelilewski of the 13th centwy, not some Viking ol Christoforo Colon who discovered America but a Rus- OREGON WAR HERO MAN IS IN COMMAND OF U. 5. 5. ATLANTA | ] | Capt. Rodger W. Simpson, U. S. Navy, in command of the U. 8. S. Atlanta, now. visiting Juneau, as- sumed command during a short ceremony at Pearl Harbor on May 12, this year. He is the first “Yan- kee” to command that vessel. During the late war Captain Simp- son distinguished himself as one of | the outstanding Destroyer Com- manders in the South Pacific, and his war record is still remembered by many Oregonians. He was at one | time Commanding Officer USS Ma- i | mander Destroyer Division 15, then later as Commander Destroyer | Squadron 12, nicknamed the ‘*Scrap- parco” Squadron.

Dewey at the | GOP convention, came as a great surprise. None of the correspondents had figured out this combination. Even Walter Lipppman during the con- vention said: “Dewey has been trying to reach out to the isolationists to override the Vandenberg-Stassen- Warren forces, and they have been reaching out to Taft and beyond Taft to ‘stop’ Dewey.” But instead, with all the noisy ballyhooing, in !the final outcome, statesmanship prevailed to cement opposing forces, with two leading candidates from the with the rank of Commodore. At the close of the War, Captain Simpson was in charge of the evac- iuation of Ailied Prisoners of War ifrom prison camps in Japan, and was decorated with the Legion of 'BET).
