DRESSED TO KILL
Berlin, Aug. 21 UP) Herman
Wilhelm Goering has done the
impossible he's outstripped
himself in his new reichmarshal
uniform.
A new picture of the plump
Herman shows him in a cloud-
gray cape and tunic with gold
trimmings, as opposed to the
usual bluish air Uniform.
- His cap carries the gold flying
eagle of the air force on the
peak. The chin strap is gold
Around the entire band of the
hat is gold-stitched laurel
wreath.
His new baton is made of
ivory ornamented at one end
with a bas-relief of the air
force's spread eagle, at the other
with the German fighting cross
as it appears on tanks and air
planes. The shank of the baton
is decorated with alternate gold
pread eagles, iron crosses and
lighting crosses.
FILM ACES FREED
OF
San Francisco. Aug. 21 VP)
Three notable film actors and a
acenario writer have been clear
ed by the Dies committee of
accusations that they were Com
munist sympathizers.
' After a careful study of testi
mony, Representative Martin
Dies said today that there was
no evidence to Indicate that the
actors, James Cagney, Frederic
March and Humphrey Bogart, or
the writer, Phil Dunne, had ever
been connected with Communist
activities.
Klamath Falls, Aug. 21. OF)
Four large forest fires on the
Klamath Indian reservation were
kgain brought under control this

lines, leaping almost a mile in
tome cases.
The Swan lake fire swooped
over 600 new acres late Tuesday
nd reinforcements were called
from Crater Lake National park
and the Yakima reservation. The
fire has blackened 8600 acres
since it started last week.

realiition that ' recreation,"
these modem times, has become
"big" business with a vengeance.
It is actually the "one" industry
in some of these states and "pow
erful" Important in others.
While the business of recreation
is, of course, nation-wide, the
concentration of population in
this corner of the. country
makes it outstanding.
Long abandoned farms have
been restored as Inns, camps,
youth hostels, glorified "Dude"
ranches (Eastern style) or into
beautiful country homes of
wealthy and important people.
Such well known folk as Doro
thy Thompson, Sinclair Lewis,
Westbrook Pegler, Booth Tark
Ington, Alexander Wollcott,
Dorothy Canfield Fisher, and
many others spend most of their
time in such homes. These "na
tional" citizens join the local
churches and committees and
get themselves elected as town
"selectmen" (councilmen, to
you!) and a township in New
England corresponds to a coun
ty in the west. They donate lec
tures, articles and plays, and
often act In the summer play
houses. In fact, they become def
initely a part of the community
and active, local citizens a
privilege denied them in hugh
cities.

I IKEWISE, the charming vil
lages dotting the highways
buzz busily each night with
tourists, domiciled in once re
mote, even "snooty", colonial
homes. The huge hotels are
filled, also, but not with the old
time rocking-chair brigades on
the wide verandas. The guests
now are hoardes of restless, ev
er onward moving motorists.
All the historic handicraft arts
are in full flower beautiful
and useful articles are made and
sold on the spot in the attractive
shops one finds at every cross
road. Astonishingly, In the moun
tain and lake regions, the deep
winter season is just as busy as
the merry-making summer
months. Not only at some of our
most famous winter-sports re
sorts, but practically every tiny
village or farm with a nearby
hill or pond is crowded each
winter week end. I am told that
my favorite little country inn in
Vermont (at the foot of Brom
ley Mountain) which boasts that
it hath neither telephone nor
electric lights, is forced to turn
