" ' : 1: . "It is a good business slogan," he says, "and frequently the customer is right But what about the times when the customer is obviously wrong? If we permit ourselves to be imposed upon by saying that he is always right, then we are unfair to all the rest of our customers. If a woman returns a cloak that has been damaged and we accept it, the only way we can make up the loss is by charging a little more for other cloaks." Fred Kelly, in The Na tion's Business. LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE I ' Portland, Oregon, Apr. 30, 1925. Editor, The Evening Herald: We would appreciate it if you would give space in your paper to the enclosed article, as we are ask ing for its publication for the par pose of ascertaining whether the people of Klamath county want, Czechs as settlers or not. We ask ed for its publication in foe News, but our. request has not, so Tar. been acceded to. '." ". "" " ; '., ' Yours truly, . ' Oias. J. Zergao, '.., . President. : ' 1 Portland Oregon, llarch 26, 1925. The Editor, The Klamath News, Klamath Falls, Oregon. . Dear Sir: '-. A number of residents of Klamath County have called my attention to your issue of March the 12th, where in you. ask the question "Do you think it would be a progressive step for Klamath County to import a colony of. Czechs?" and the opin ions in reply thereto. '' . Permit me to state that your question is misleading, in tftat it is not our purpose, in the settle ment of the lands of Oregon, to im . port Czechs or any other nationality. The prospective settlers of the Czech nationality which -we' intend to bring to settle the lands of Ore gon are citizens of the United States residing in different states thereof. The Czech -people, as you know, arjs not 'in inferior Tace. Many peo . pie are not familiar with the Czech y nationality, for -the reason taat these people were formerly known as Bohemians. They were an inde . pendent nation centuries before there was a United States, and con tinued as an Independent nation ' until about four hundred years ago, when they were conquered by Austria, and from that time up to I the close of the World War were subjects to the Austrian govern . meat. : For centuries this ' nation . led in literature, arts, music and ' industry, ninety percent of the in- ; dustries of Austria being in the ' province of Bohemia, A reading of the history of taese people will show that they .are an exceptionally Intelligent race, and lovers of lib- erty. .. After - the World -War the province of Bohemia again regain ed its Independence, and "Is , now known -as the Republic of Czecho- i Slovakia. ; This " republic was the 'first of all European countries to stabilize its government and its . finances. ..'' When a person of this itl ility emigrates to . the United States, his first tsep is to become a citizen of this country, and to edu.tata h.'s children. The assimilation of this nationality is so rapid that It is almost an Impossibility to tell whether the pareu'.s . ut ''he first generation were bsrn on ' foreign soil or whothor th.ilr' forefathers had been In this country for tnn- turles. In fact, the tint eeneru- , lion are real American, tvhu.io tie-) sire Is to be of sorvli'o to the ' -country, and who havo-tho riuntry's ,, welfare, at heart.' ;Y)tt ' .inva ex ample's T..t this nntlonilly ln your settlement &t.

News Editor H ATK8 By Mall One Tear ,' : ..$5.00 . 8.75 . 1.60 Six Months Three Months -One Month . . .65 MAY 1, 1925 you will find from an observation of them that the are extremely Interested in education, that most of their children are- graduates of hish schools, and many of universi ties. How many settlements in Oregon are there, of the size of .MaJiu. that' have , a high sc'aool? Where will- you find another' class of people that will get as much out of the land as these people did around Malin,. and establish cheese factories and . other industries, as they have done? vAre these, people net law-abiding citizeas of the United States? We were of the opinion that this racial and religious prejudice had ceased to exist in Oregon, and that there would be sincere coopera tion between the people of Oregon and the Incoming settlers; in fact, 'Without tacit cooperation, it is use less to bring in new settlers, be cause the methods of farming here are -so different from those in the east that, without the cooperation and assistance of the various local ities In this state, rae'new settlers will be "unable to successfully de velop the Oregon lands. .1 regret that space does not per mit meto' go more fully into the history xf the Czechoslovak people, but If it did, I would be able to show you that the Czechoslovaks are devoted, 'not only to progress, but also to all the better things and that their idol citizenship Is which oar government represeata, an asset, rataer than a liability to the United States. . In conclusion permit me to 'say that these ..jop'jr are not new comers to the United States, and that the first Bohemian emigant to this country came in the year 1620. s ; .,, Respectfully yours, Chas. J. Zergan, President, American Czecho-Slovak Chamber of Commerce of Portland. BELIEVED SEEN GRANVILLE, Vermont, May .J,. A man and a girl believed to be Earl Woodward and Lucille Chat terton, abducted from her father's farm here lait Friday, were located in east Brookflelcf today -by one of the scirchers. Both fled when the searcher tired at the man. Discov ery f the pair was made by Jeorgo Jerd. Randolph, who was search ing alone in the general, vicinity of a farji from which cream had been stolen today. Jerd, who was armed only with a pistol, fired two shots, neither of which is believed taok effect.- When the couple fled he! ran to a'general store in east Brook-1 field and telephoned for help. On the Dan Howe place, an ab andoned farm, were found a camp ing outfit and provisions,. 'abandon ed by the man and girl when they ran from Jerd.

Corey was confident that the interstate commerce commission woull grant to, the Hill lines, the right to common user of the South ern Pacific lines at Odell. "It is the logical move," the pub lic, service commissioner said. "If the Hill lines were forced to build their oyn line all the way to Klam ath Fulls It would mean a greater Investment -and, hence the necessity of a larger return.

There is no doubt of tho power of tliu .interstate commerce commis sion in forcing railroad construc tion. Tho Esch-Cummlngs act grants the power to the commission.
