Munis INSTEAD of demanding the death or removal of the Emperor of Japan the Emperor is to act as official spokesman for the allies in directing his subjects in the direction of carrying out the peace terms. Free dom of religion will be guaranteed the Japanese peo ple which can only mean retention of the Emperor for he is essentially a religious symbol. And last, but FAR from least, the people of Japan will eventually be allowed to choose by secret ballot what form of government they wish to have PERMANENTLY. m k :k mm OREGWN PUBIISHIER SOUIATIOD Ye Smudge Pot By Arthur Perry The Japanese now want peace, and, their old Jobs back in Amer ica. They even pray for it, along with a few shiploads of Ameri can rice and missionaries, e Dock J. Cresap Hayes is talk ing about buying a farm, and taking a rest. The better farmers say it can't be done. e e e Bunco artists are busy In the metropolis. This time they are after wallets, Instead of votes, and Just as successfully. e Bill Walker of the army, and Paul (Suspicion Points) Jennings of the navy, are back from the European theater, on furloughs. Dock Durno is also headed home. e a m E. Ulrich, the Prospect Mt. Wm. towned In mid-week. Ask ed about the reported food short age in his area, he answered with a knowing yawn.

The what and why and how of the atomic bomb, left the laymen in the dark, as well as chess players like Scth Bullis, bridge players like Gilbert Stuart, Insurance agents, and in come tax experts. e e The Flctch Fish boy of Phoe nix has started to talk, and in another year will be making puns on the smart things his Paw says. e a Picking and packing of the pear has started, and there is work for willing hands. a a e In Klamath county, mlllwork ers have started piling up at the picket lines, instead of piling lumber. e e The early mornings have start ed to fit the Hob Deuel display woodpile. e e e Gene Childcrs, the former landlubber, was over from the coast, and had a fender crimped on the Ice side of his auto, the first of the week.

They would like to see some smart inventor cook up a perpetually green lawn, that would mow it self. e e Peace Is on the way, and the country Is expected to be back to normalcy In another year. The gasoline situation Is also im proving, and new gas silos with out another one being built on the opposite corner, arc reported. e e e Don Wilkinson has returned from the cow country, where he vacationed without falling off a horse or haystack, or into the creek, as feared. a e 0 Radio commentators made the welkin ring all week, what with the Nips quitting and atoms busy. CERTAINLY, if the surrender offer by the Japanese government was made in good faith, and the ac ceptance terms by the allied powers are as announced then the end of World War II let the Lord be praised ! has at long last been reached ! R.W.R. Broadcasting Whang Doodle When they are good they are very, very good; but when they are bad they are horrid. We refer not to Mother Goose but to the present bumper crop of news commentators. This broadcasting business is getting so popular (and so profitable) that any man or woman with a resonant radio voice and a second-hand edition of the International Encyclopedia, think they can qual ify as properly anointed Delphian oracles. , COR example, how CAN they any of them main- tain President Truman's Thursday night speech "did not violate the essential' spirit of the Atlantic charter." That is precisely what the speech and its implica tions did do. Not once but several times. Yet awav thev ero pontificating that "rightly un derstand there is no disac?reement between the understanding reached by former President Roose velt and former Prime Minister Churchill on tnat war ship in the Atlantic three years ago and the Potsdam program, except in outward form, none in substance." lost 0NE cant help but wonder if the commentator ever d itl read the Atlantic charter; or listened to the Pres ident's remarks on Thursday night. For what could be plainer in the former than the solemn nled(?e to allow no territorial aggrandizement as a result of the present war. and at the end of it to ii a nave iciuikcu jiuim vv i . 11 A weeks at the seashore, where insist on self-determination for nations all nations they were tanned by the wind jar,e or gmau weak or powerful, and by implication at least, friendly or unfriendly. Yet at Potsdam, as the President pointed out, Russia secures parts of Poland; all of the Baltic states formerly as independent as any of the other European republics, while Poland is "aggrandized" by portions of Germany. The question is not whether these territorial chances as a result of the allied victory were justified or not justified ; the question is whether or not they violated the essential spirit of the Atlantic charter. Of course they did. And whv anyone should try to maintain otherwise, is beyond the wildest conjec ture of this department. R.W.R. Was Ever Thus As a postscript to the above it should be pointed out that neither Russia nor Poland were, of course, signatories to the Atlantic charter, and therefore are free if they wish to repudiate it. But again that is not the point. The point and the only point is whether in agreeing to these ac tions, the United States did or did not agree to a vio lation of the Atlantic charter. And obviously the U. S. A. did both as to territorial aggrandizement and self-determination. MOREOVER, in insisting upon U. S. bases in the Pacific to be under the exclusive control of the United States, the Atlantic charter also was violated. These bases are taken, as the President ex plained, not because we wish more territory or profit or selfish advantage but merely we quote: "To maintain those military bases which are necessary for the complete protection of our interests and of world peace." TTIIAT is probably true. But it is also true that Russia justified the con quest and aggrandizement of the Baltic states Es thonia, Lithuania and Latvia by the same argument. In fact most territorial agerandizement in recent years as a result of armed conflict have been thus jus tified by the nations profiting therefrom all imper ative as protection against future wars, the security of the attacking nation and to maintain world peace ! Again the question is not whether such territorial changes were justified but solelv whether they violat ed the terms and spirit of the Atlantic charter. That they did simply can't be denied. The onlv explanation of the commentator who did deny such an obvious fact we can conjure up is, i.e: he mis-spoke himself when he said Atlantic charter he meant i.United Nations charter I R.W.R. MA Dr. Brady of my age can jump any tim I leaned out of my third floor playroom window one day and heard the kids down on the street plotting to jump over or through my young hedge and "maybe Doc Brady will come out and chase us!" I didn't chase 'em that day. My heart wasn't in it. I felt nearly as sad as I did ten or fifteen years before that, when, attending a vaude ville show, I was singled out of the audience as the shining object of a "mind reader's" trick. The blindfolded performer sat on the stage and his assistant passed through the audienci "At what am I pointing?" the fellow asked. The performer promptly answered "A gentle- mans bald head." I turned to laugh at the victim and found the fellow was pointing at my bald spot. It was the first time I realized it was so conspicuous. I was shocked and humilated and I wonted to sue the theater for it, but I refrained by advice of counsel. I remember when I was 30, how sorry I felt for people who were 40. What a dreadful thing it must be to be 50 years old, I thought. Didn't you, old timer? Don't we all? Now I am beginning to believe what I see, and I see very few people growing old or rather I see a lot of them staying young regardless of their years, and I don't believe that is just accl denal. I believe the old folks are staying younger today for sev eral specific reasons, and among the reasons, I think, are the following: 1. People today try to save TELL WHEN THEY'RE OLD? their teeth. 2. People today are less afraid of fresh air and sunlight, hood kids even when the air happens seemed diabol- to be cold, moist or moving, Ically bent on than ever before. defeating my 3.
