""THE BLUSH OF SHAME
Stubbornness, political expediency and a mistaken belief
that-Klamath Falls desires to continue to wallow in moral
filth are undoubtedly the three prime motives which prompted
the city council last night to grant a license, to the notorious
hotel Ray. ' " .Y-; '- ' ";V';-
This action on the part of these five public servants should be
and will be , resented by all! the decent citizens of this community,--for
it sends forth; the ' word that Klamath ' Falls now
welcomes scarlet women Jnto. the 'fold; invites them to come
here and make their homes in "the hotels and rooming houses
ctf this city arid flaunt their vice in the .faces of, the women and
children, of this city. ;' " ; ' .' 1 '
The action of the xity council was not" unexpected. To those
who had attended the so-called "hearings," it xanxe matter
of course. ' For the councilmen, instead of seeking to protect
the city, went out of its way .to. discredit the peace officers.
' To the credit of City Attorney Carnahan Ut it .be said that
he performed his duty fearlessly and well,. in' the face of almost
impossible odds. Witness after witness, testified as to the con
ditions which have been prevalent jm this hotel. They told of
lewd, women openly arid shamefully seeking, to entice victims :
of, liquor 'parties! and ;druriken f ights of junseemly conduct
during the hours of the night.., . ? .. . . y ; "
i But all of this testimony ?fell upon deaf ears so far as the
fivepouncilmen were conceriedV Jhejkjmds had been made
up almost from the yery srt and, they resented the activities
of the city attorney who did nothing more than his honest duty
to the city and to the decent people who want to make this a
clean pace in which to live.' r. ''' . "'
The moral character of" the. Panqsiybman should not have
played any. part in the -determination of the. issues involved in
the hearings. ; There had never been any charge, direct or im
plied, that she had. sold liquor at the hotel, or that she had
. willingly, harbored fallen women in the place. '
But the fact remains that-the -hotel has, been a rendezvous
forewomen of the. underworld; that liquor parties within the
place 'have been frequent and that drunken fights occurred
there. It was this woman's business to maintain a decent rooming-house,
and because she failed to do so, as the evidence
clearly showed, she should have been refused a license.
' Bootleggers, scarlet ' women and tin-horn gamblers will hail
with delight the action of the city council last night. To them
it" "signifies that Mayor Goddard and the decent people j
of the city have lost the first round of their fight for a cleaner J
eityi'To their diseased minds it comes as a notice that Klamath
Fajls will remain "wide open." .
' ,It will be interesting, indeed, to watch further developments
. in Jhe mayor's drive for decency.
;. -s'ZiV. D. B. WORTHINGTON
Many residents of this section will learn with regret of the
parsing of D. . B,, .VVorthington,' former newspaper publisher
.tjfjhis city, who died recently at Beloit, .Wis., where he had
resjdedifot many years and built up a newspaper plant for
which he refused an offer of a quarter of a million dollar.
Mr. Wprthingt'on made many friends during the time he pub-lished-a
newspaper in this city, but he sought a broader field
ior his talents and as a result Beloit profited immeasurably by
his removal to that; city. It was mainly through his efforts
that' he Warner brothers, manufacturers of automobile ac
cessories,' built their Beloit factory. . . : ' . -, ,; .
Had he elected to remain in Klamath Falls there is no
qucsUon biit.;that he would have been a powerful force in. the
comhuihity ' and would have been an important factor in the
growth and, development of the Klamath country.

" Officialdom was all agog, waiting

In gala attire. - He-was togged but
in his full-dress. - uniform, ' - his
shoulders sagging a - bit beneath
the weight- of the medals and deco
rations pinned across his chest and
hung around his neck.
For he had come not as a culprit
to be beheaded but as a guest at
the army and navy reception, the
last big social shindig of the sea
son on the White House calendar.
And, for the minute at least,
Mitchell had the laugh on his ser

The Cost of Service
ON the loyalty and skill of ,
the human clement depends
the character of telephone serv
ice. The providers of this
service must not only meet the
market prices for materials.
They must alao maintain at any
cost a high standard of work- .
mahship. : . ,
' Because of advancing prices,
the telephone dollar goes only
Hal f as far as It did ten years ago.
More than three-fifths pf this
dollar is necessarily expended
for wages, f Less would neither '
':.5
attract npr hold the high-grade;..'!; ,,;
workers essential , to. mAintain ; ;
America's standards. , - . " J' ' ,
That Bell telephone rates'' r .y
have advanced much less than ' j
other prices is largely due to' , v'
economies in methods and ap-
paratus that have been developed
and introduced It is also because . ' ,
the proportion of operating.. ,
plant built at pre-war prices i9
still large, though this is steadily , ;
decreasing because' of new con- ' , ,. '
struction made necessary by the.
nation's telephone needs. J
