KLAMATH FALLS, Ore.,' July 27 VP) -Klamath county was a hot bed of revolt todny as agitators, defying an order from .organized labor, moved through the lumber Industry de manding strikes. At least three mills were shutdown completely and four more operating on restrict crews. More plants Were expected to close this afternoon. 1 TiNTlOM .Ttllv 27 IIP) Npffnttn ilona between wheat delegations of the United states, Canada, Argentina ond Australia for restriction of acre age wero adjourned today until Aug ust 21. ; NO APOLOGY IS NEEDED ! .-Cabled dispatches 'from Europe indicate 'that the people ; 'oVers'e'as are beginning once niore o shalte 'their heads sadly i over Uncle.Sam's misguided and deluded 'refusal to save the I world from disaster. . foir.a long .time it .was Uncle Sam's refusal to cancel the; ' VijSr :ddbts that convicted him of selfishness, blindness land ' (obstinacy. Then .it .was . his action in raising his tariff rates; ' ;niji'e. recently,, it was.'his deeision'to go off the gdld standard.! , Now, ;it seems, he has .wrecked civilization .by his stand at; ' the London "conference, die won't Stabilize 'his currency, He wbn't agree to h sudden horizontal tariff slush, hp . this, that and the other thing; and as a result 'he is .oiice' : the target for the 'pitying scorn of the super-civilized 'altruists across '.the "Atlantic. The 'only -way in which all of this criticism can -do riy. harm is that some Americans may begin to Wke it serWusly. j What e .must realize :is that we need .not apologize in 'the least for our country's course at London. 'Our government . ia looking out 'first and foremost for the interests of .its,own . citizens, and it is doing it in what seems to be a hardibolled rind effective manner. In that, there is certainly nothing to be uishamcd of. ; We arc remaining off the gold standard until we can get i back on .in our own way and at Our own .terms? Surely :h'd so is England, whence a good part of ,this sorrowful I head-shaking originates. f. We are guilty of the crime of debasing the value of oiir ; currency? Well, France did precisely the same thing about , a decade ago, cutting the value of the franc to one-fourth of .its old worth. Isn't it odd that the French should be so .indignant at us now? i We are going slowly in the matter of reducing our tariffs'? Sure just as England has -abandoned preferential .under- standings with other nations; just as France is doing, just as ', practically every other nation on the globe is doing. The truth seems to be that our delegates simply -adopted , a hai'd-boiled and realistic attitude at London. They didn't care to have Uncle Sam holding the bag when the conference ends. .-. .If this has aroused Europe's indignation well, it's just ! too bad. Some of those who celebrated the fourth think that the Declaration of Independence brought lights without resixm Tho trouble willf most international' parleys is that the participants go into them like a woman into a -big sale with a dollar to spend. ' Gradually the idea begins -to get about that maybe, after all, the full -of 1983 will be a good trade season. All work and no play'inay inTiko -Jack" a du'l boy but what about all play and no work?

It ls ma Jeetio presentation of two erf tlie most seething decades 'ln American life, from 1013 to '1933. and, in honest manner, pictures thlsmlghty nation's courageous fight to regain Its pride and freedom. Here Is a vast sweeping panorama of national life as background for the Uile of one family's intrepid stand against tho forces or evil and corrup tion. Such excellent players as Charles Blckford, Richard Arlen. Mary Brian, Jean Hergholt, Louise Dresser, Andy Devinc and George E. Stone are (n the featured cast. Ralph Murphy directed. It Is the story of America's shame and of Its pride, of Its panic, and its rise to new heights during tlie Now Deal I i aa ' pittl ; " . ae I am sure we are all glad ta learn that one railway brotherhood has token steps to cut down miles or days which to work per month, 35 days or 3500 miles in freight! service, 65 days or 5300 miles In passenger service. I wonder If our president would think he was getting the depression pretty well cornered If alt workers would de mand 36 days per month. This looks excessive, still there are other em ployos. making move days than 35 days per month, i .am pleased to note that Mr. Bull believes If any railroad men are working excessive number of days or miles pe-r month it's -Just force of -habit, and Is not for. gain or necessity. Force of habit la pretty strong but I am sure If they could be Induced to try a 22 or 26 day month they could break tw wives of this hablti and It sIujuw tl enough lor any man to work and m the brothers of the railway brother, hoods do not come under ray firJ letter (I hope I was wrong) they S and will got together and cut tjv, days or miles down and go along with our -president, nothing compileaJ! about getting the days or mileage cut down to conform with any stamiaril the men wlah to set up, but unu. they do. one man's opinion Is as good as another. 8.

J in strong for sunshine so I'm strong for Toasting I've always found that really good reasons are the simplest reasons. For instance, I know that sunshine mellows and heat purifies. "Toast ing" is therefore very easy for me to' understand. And very easy for me to appreciate because my sense of the fastidious is so very exacting. You see, I'm always aware of the fact that my cigarette comes in such intimate contact with my lips. Quite naturally, it's the purity of "Toasting" that J single out for -special praise.
