By Arthur Parry
There Is no shortage of Booil
and Boo Hoes! in the world to
day. "Homj-slck," (that's not the
word for It,) GIs overseas unfurl
the crying towel, and in Port
land would-be purchasers razz
the merchants, because there Is
no butter for sale. There Is now
more things the matter with
everything, than normally with
the weather, which Is never
right Many can recall when
there was nothing to cuss but
meteorological conditions, and
they didn't deserve it.
Southern Democrats in their
filibuster against the FEPC bill
claim they have the oratorical
power to talk for four months,
to prevent a vote on the bill.
The cruel, bestial, and ruthless
Nazis developed a "sound gun"
capable of paralyzing victims in
80 to 40 seconds, in the final
days of the war.

HUGGED RURAL HILARITY
(Smith River News)
"Two talented accordlan
players swung out gay Swiss
dance music for the natal day
celebration of Mrs. Louis
Braido and Mrs. John Mozetti
last Saturday night, when
around thirty-five friends
gathered at the Smith River
community hall for an old
time festival which continued
until near-milking time.'
The discovery has been made
adulterated whiskey is being sold
on the black market. Somebody
is liable to get arrested for run
ning a blond-pig.

Vegetation has started to grow,
and the prospects are favorable
for a fine stand of spring grain
and weeds.
A Portland boxing promoter
has wagered FDR, Jr., will oc
cupy the White House by 1968.
This should not cause wide
spread fainting by Republicans.
The promoter thought J. Kahut

approximately two minutes.

Madrid, Jan. 10 There is an

The esteemed Klamath Falls
Herald and News, editorially and
gently rebukes the community
practice of booing visiting ath
letic squads, as if they were a
coterie of wrestling vlllians, as
follows:
"Stifle that noise when
Klamath's opponents are mak
ing a free throw.
"It smacks of discourtesy to
fill the gym with shouts, cat
calls and boos when an op
ponent plnycr steps up to tlx
foul line."
Other communities do the
same thing, except that they
smile when they boo. Its differ
ent in the sister city. The more
ardent fans, regard a defeat of
their prides, as a personal Insult,
and a smirch on the pugilistic
honor of Klamath county.

The Taft - Morse Issue
An old friend in West Virginia has sent up. a copy
of an editorial in "The Wheeling Intelligencer" tak
ing issue with Senator Morse and his recent plea for a
Republican party leadership represented by liberals
like ex-Governor Stassen of Minnesota, instead of
ultra-conservatives like Senator Taft of Ohio.
It is a well-written niece composed, we presume
by the editor, Mr. Thos. O'B Flynn, who we take
it has some rich and rugged Irish blood flowing in
his veins!
DMITTING there is a serious split within the ranks
L of both the Republican and Democratic parties
the Intelligencer continues:
"We disagree entirely with Senator Morse as to the Re
publican party's failure. It has failed in our Judgment, not
because it has been too conservative, but because It has not
been conservative enough. Instead of breaking cleanly with
the pseudo liberalism of the day, the Republican party has
trailed along behind the New Deal, borrowing enough of its
phoney doctrine to make modern Republicanism neither flesh
nor fowl nor good red herring. Mr. Drummond (Christian
Science Monitor) speaks of a fight by the so-called progressives
to capture the control of Congress and dictate the 1948 cam
paign. They did dictate the nominations of 1940 and 1944
with disastrous results. Neither Mr. Willkie nor Mr. Dewey
differed enough from Mr. Roosevelt to stir the enthusiasm of
any sound conservative, much less any nationalist. As
for Congress it is Just as well perhaps that the issue be fought
out now. If the element for which Senator Morse speaks wins
and thus demonstrates its capacity to control the Republican
party, that party might as well fold up and go out of business.
It will have no function to perform."
"THERE is the ultra-conservative, Robert Taft, Big
Business view of the political situation, very hon
estly analyzed, very clearly and forceably expressed.
But in the judgment of this department, if this
group not the liberal Morse-btassen group wins
control of the Republican party, 1 HbN the Republi
can party might as well told up and go out or business,
for then it WILL have no function to perform.
.
AND the reason?
fiimnlir Koronao tV) ni'a aro nnf nnmirrVi imfava in
the United States who feel as the editor of the Wheel
ing Intelligencer feels to keep the Republican party,
or any other party, alive.
CDITOR O'B FLYNN wants a party more conserva-
tive, more nationalistic than the GOP how is, and
has been under the leadership of men like Willkie and
Dewey. He doesn't wish to accept as they did, any
of the good features of the Roosevelt New Deal and
eschew the bad ones. He wants to throw the New
Deal and ALL its works overboard and go back to
what he calls we quote :
"Nationalism and individualism (which) call for a mini
mum of governmental direction and control."
"MATIONALISM and individualism!"
' That has a familiar sound. Another term has
been "isolationism and RUGGED individualism."
Well, as one of the ''older boys" we often have
a nostalgic wish to return to the "good old days,"
when the following was a popular and appealing ditty
in a certain Middlewest manufacturing community:
"My name is Yonny Yonson,
I work for N. C. Thompson,
I get one dollar and a half a day
And I eat MYSELF!"
Ah ! in many ways "them WERE the days," but
Brother, they will never return ! The past CAN'T re
turn !
And anv nartv that bases its creed uoon anv such
hope, directly or directly, is as doomed to extinction
as the fabulous dinosaur when its body outgrew its
brains.
It just can't be done.
OUCH an outcome would be not only against politi-
cal sense, but against one of the fundamental laws
of nature, the law of human progress.
To make this point clearer let bilitor U IS flynn
enumerate some of the "phoney New Deal doctrines"
he would eliminate.
In precisely what way would be made a return
to what ho calls greater individualism and nation
alism? AlHERE would he stand on the UNO for example,
the protective tariff, the Securities commission,
the regulation of banks and deposits, federal benefits
to ex-service men, workers compensation, health in
surance, unemployment insurance, pensions and a
score of other measures based entirely upon the ex
tension of federal control and activity which in the
name of "less government direction and control" he
opposes.
IT is true that under what the Intelligencer terms
liberal control the Republicans have been soundly
beaten.
But had Senator Taft been the nominee, under
an isolationist and nigged individualistic platform
would the Republican party have done better?
Don t be silly.
The GOP would have also lost Maine and Ver
mont.
MO, the people of this country, practically all the
people, have marched far beyond the political
concepts of the "Old Guard," which Editor O'B Flynn
so ably, but hopelessly, represents.
1 his doesn t mean the Democrats are going to win
indefinitely, but it does mean, as we see it, the Demo
crats will never be defeated by a party that refuses
to see that certain social gains made during the ad
ministration of the late President Roosevelt are here
to stay, and no party seeking their repeal can ever
hope to gain that popular support and confidence
which is essential to any far leaching political sue-

News Behind
The News
By Paul Mailoo
Washington. J.n. 21 Confi
dntlal canvassers have found
congress in almost total d i s
agreement as
to what will
be done about
strikes and
the unions.
Twenty of
the men, best
placed to
know, gave 20
differing p r !
v a t e predic
tions. Many
said from the
first the steel
strike wo u Id
then autos, then the
then telephone! without real
issue In either), and by prelim
inary and bolstering strikes in
other cities, have used their
new power to get an unprece
dented wage increase which
will average above 18 per cent,
a figure representing Just about
what they expected to get from
their demand for 30 per cent.
(Mr. Truman is eupposed pri
vately from the first to have
favored 20 per cent.)
The uprising development, in
aftermath, will be that the
companies, one by one, were
able to stand up in opposition
as well as they did,, without
help from government or
public.
These are tne runaameniai
truths which will survive the
weak-kneed, gloss-over confu
sions of fact now current as an
indispensable part of aU labor
conflicts.

be settled
big others; whereupon interest
would die and congress would
argue without decision until
after their election next No
vember.
Others did not believe con
gress could longer buck the
problem and expected various
union-curbing enactments. But
Mr. Truman had told his lead
ers privately he would veto
anything which might be call
ed an anti-union law.
Surely nothing opposed by
the unions could get two-thirds
maiority necessary to pass over
such a veto. The confused and
confusing predictions, in the
last analvsis, therefore, appear
ed to add up to iust about the
same total nothing, or HtUe-
or-nothing.
A nice. neat hole In the wall
is quite evidently being
dug, through which all may es
caoe. A commentator or two
started it with toothpicks, but
behind them some congressmen
are ready with drills.
This is a proposal to cut the
Truman fact-finding bill down
to fact-finding alone. It would
be stripped of Its nower of sub-
noena, to which General Motors
objects, and the coollng-off
nerlod of 30 days before strikes
to which the union objects. Just
pass a law letting the president
appoint commissions to find
facts.
The only trouble about this
escape is that too many people
can see the hole. It might be
better to go brazenly out the
window, or keep arguing Inter
minably in hopes everyone will
forget about the whole matter.
Such legislation simply pro
poses what already has been
done. Without legislation. Mr.
Truman has established precise
ly that kind of fact-finding.
General Motors walked out on
it.
The steel union planned a
striKe against It (the fact-find
ing report was due February
10 and the strike was called for
January 14), delaying only for
direct negotiations, which Mr.
Truman took into the White
House, before his fact-finding
commission could report.
The question raised bv such
a permanent fact-finding law is:
Would anyone ever show up
for the hearings? To handle the
problem that way would be like
waving back a windstorm with
a feather.
If congressional leaders try
to push their boys through this
hole, there will of course be
trouble. The labor committees
of both houses are closely con
trolled by the unions. Nothing
can escape them, which Is op
posed by the unions, or nothing
es-er has.
"VN the open senate and house
v floors, however, their bill
would be open to amendment
by the attachment of every pos
sible solution every congress
man has proposed. The problem
of Mr. Truman's leaders will
then be to prevent any import
ant action, and they are likely
to wind up with conflicting
bills from the two houses.
Certainly anyone looking for
solutions from congress must
wear long-range glasses, and
anyone looking toward consid
eration of the fundamentals of
the problem will have to look
hnrd. The plain fundamentals
are these:
The unions have developed
heir strike technique to the
point where they can tie up the
nation any night. A simultane
ous strike In telephones, tele
graph and radio alone would
nearly do It.
Add electrical power house
workers, and you can see what
four unions could do to the
country. Add not the big rail
roads but the teamsters who
merely handle all freight in the
cities, elevator operators and
bus drivers, and you have the
obliterative possibilities of a
general strike from only a few
unions.

concerning his unit of B-17

fall. At that time they were sent
to Iceland for two months on a
mapping mission and the date
was advanced to Dec. 15.
From his letters in December
to his parents: ,
"We have received orders to
take over the new i American
base in Germany near Munich.
It was to have been occupied by
a group of B-29's but they have
not arrived. We are very short
of maintanenee crews and so
flight officers have been called
out to the line and I have two
crews to Instruct in condition
ing planes for flight. I have also
served as flight engineer. To
morrow we will begin moving
to the new base. My planes are
to make cargo runs although we
will also have a truck convoy."
"Lechficld, Germany, later in
December:
"Today was the first mail caU
since we are entirely moved.
This was a German Jet plane

"We are close to the Alps so

"Three planes from the group

the one to go.

Put Up Grn Light For Science
To the editor: In talking with
returned servicemen, one gets
the Impression that much of the
U. S. military effort ln the re
cent war was strictly snafu. In
fact, so hair-raising are many
tales of inefficiency and bun
gling, one wonders how our side
managed to win the war at all.
I put this point to a navy vet.
who replied, "Oh, the Germans
must have been worse fouled up
than we were.
Everyone has heard these
charges manpower wasted
talents misapplied pfe's doing
the captain's work when their
ranks would be reversed if true
merit were the only considera
tion a college diploma or poli
tical connections getting a com
mission for many a second-rater
the president's son being com
missioned a captain and winding
up a brigadier general, while
thousands of abler men never
rose to the rank of sergeant.
So what? If there is any large
proportion of truth in such
charges, and I bellex-e there is.
how did we win the war?
First, I believe we had some
pretty good men at the top
men like Marshal, Eisenhower
and MacArthur. Second, and
probably more imoortant. w
had the best scientific effort.
This war was, after all. ori-
marily a battle of science. Per
haps our fighting-men were bet
ter than the enemy. But think
where we would have been If
the Germans had developed the
atomic bomb first. Or, aside
from that, think of the Germans
ha vim radar Instead oi ut at
the time they attempted the lr
Invasion cf England. Radar was
the principle reason for "so few"
saving "so many" at that time.
And the proximity fuse. Sup
pose the Germans had had that.
They had been working on it
since 1930. What a toll they
would have exacted from our
bombers. If we had not had the
proximity fuse, the German
rocket bombs would have done
enormously more damage to
England, the "Battle of the
Bulge" might have gone much
more seriously against us, and
Japan's "kamikaze" suicide
might have been successful.
I think science, more than any
thing else, won the war for our
side. And if science was im
portant in this war, we all know
how much more important it
will be in the next. So, I say
place nothing in the way of
American science!
