KLAMATH SCHOOL 10 PAY FOR DAMAGE BY Klamath Falls high school author ities, cognizant of the destruction to school ani downtown property here as the result of celebration of the first football victory for tho Pelicans over the Tigers since 1020. have of fered to pay for all damaged or de stroyed property, Principal C. O. Smith of the Medford high school was advised today. A telegram received this morning from Principal Emery of Klamath Falls stated that school officials were regretful that fans and students bad ripped out a sot of steel goal posts, torn tho big football banner from be tween two downtown buildings, and In general "painted the town red" In traditional fashion. School officials here looked with niore or less tolerant eye upon the Klamath depredations on the theory they had a celebration coming, but they will accept the offer of remun eration. Ono of tho biggest Items of damage was the riddling of a down-town roof by falling bricks knocked from a higher roof by thoso perhaps too en thuslastlo celebrants who went after tho sky banner. In a rather bungle some fashion, somoono stumbled over the chimney and sent the thing fly lng. The roof will bo repaired with Klamath money, partly compensating for tho small fortune that left this city from the pockets of Medford speculators who gtieased wrong on the outcomo of the game.

Save Existing Safeguards THE PROPOSED constitutional amendment titled "Amendment Forbidding Prevention or Regulation of Certain Advertising if Truth ful", would, if enacted, invalidate all existing laws controlling misleading, deceptive, inde cent and even fraudulent advertising. It utterly fails to replace these present enactments with adequate safeguards against vicious advertis ing practices. In Behalf of Honesty, Decency and Morality VOTE 303 X NO! Portland Better Bu stness Bureau, Inc. I.jls L. Jni, rttlock Illock Comment of the Day s News By FRANK JENKINS THE campaign of 1936 one of the most Important In the history of the United States la over, and In a few hours we shall know the verdict. What the verdict will be, no one knows. Only a few months ago. It was a foregone conclusion, but the pic. ture baa changed now. On the day before the momentous third of No vember, there Is no one who, ls-posi tive as to the outcome of the voting. THE campaigning us over, but on the eve of eleetlon there are a few things that we might remember with profit. One of them Is that the ballot Is still SECRET. No one will know how you vote, unless you yourself make It known. No one can find out. You can't be punished or penalized for voting as someone doesn't want you to vote, for If you keep your own counsel NO ONE CAN KNOW how you voted. That Is one of the precious privi leges of the American system. The secret ballot la the very foundation of democracy. EVEN at this late date, It will be well to remember that the big, outstanding Issue of thus election Is reckless government spending. We all know that no Individual can go on year after year spending more than he earns without getting Into serious trouble. It's fine while the borrowing and the spending are under way, but when the time comes to pay up it's another story. When we borrow, whether we are Individuals or governments, the time always comes when we must pay. Borrowing and spending are easy, but PAYINQ IS HARD. THE New Deal la geared for spend ing. It has to go on spending. It Is only by spending that It Justi fies itself to the public. It can't stop. When It tries to atop, tt la prevented by those who havo been and hope to continue to bo the beneficiaries of spending. It has been thla writer's Judgment, and still Is, that tho only way wo can stop spending Is to atop the New Deal. UT that, of course, la all water over the dam. Tho campaign Is over, and tho time for voting is here. Wo havo heard all the arguments, and wo havo had plenty of time to turn them over In our minds and come to a conclusion. Tho only thing that remalna la to go to the polls and voto our honest convictions, bearing In mind that this Is our country and that Its welfare la In our hands.

Agents lor e-uropean-Dound vessels consider ed ordering their ships to New West minster B. C, to load Oregon and Washington apples and pears. Several, though, feared any attempt to send fresh fruit by rail Into Canada for transfer to ateamera would bring about the possibility of a strike among British Columbia longshore men. Harold Dexter, president of the Hood River Traffic association, said carriers had offered to absorb 9 cents a box on the extra cost of shipping to New Westminster, but expressed the belief Hood River growers couid bet ter afford to ship by rail to New York for re-loadlng aboard ahlps.

(AP) Hit maj esty, the big brown turkey on this year's Thanksgiving table, may be 4 to 8 per cent cheaper than a year ago If the current price relationship on the Chicago wholesale market re mains unchanged. Comparison of turkey prices on tha week-old dressed market today show ed l o 2 cents a pound haa been lopped of! the bird's value since the 1935 season. The largest turkey crop on record Is now being fattened for the fall and winter trade, poultry authorities said. This, In addition to the fact that there Is a heavy supply of other poultry In storage, was largely re sponsible for the lower price, they said. Young torn turkeys hare been quoted at 26 cents a pound on the poultry board's market since prices for the dressed birds were established last week. This compared with 27 cents a year ago. Old toms were at 22, against 23, young hens at 25'4 to 26 against 28 and old hens at 33 against 24. The condition of the retail trade has not yet been determined. Ships at sea. which frequently re ceive medical advice by radio when an emergency arises, have nothing on the Medford CCC district. When a member was taken sudden ly 1U while on duty at an Isolated fire cimp on the Rogue river one night recently, George Schmidt, edu cational adviser, pressed the national forest service radio Into use and called to the Gold Beach headquart ers for advice. Capt. w. C. Ryan, commander of the Gold Besch fire area, could not rend a surgeon to the scene r.s the enmp could be reached only by boat end the treacherous Rogue makes tight travel too hazardous to at tempt. Dr. E. R. Inwood, surpeon, was colled to the radio and he diag nosed the case with the Information supplied by Schmidt. Dr. Inwood prescribed emergency treatment for the man. who was be lieved to be suffering from appendi citis, and he was possibly saved from a serlouB situation. He was sent down by boat the next day and given a more comprehensive examination by tho doctor.
