MURRAY Publisher W. H. PERKINS News Editor Converted at Last Entered as second class matter at the postotliee at Klamath Falls. Oregon, under act of March 3. 1879.

All rights of republication of special dispatches herehi are also reserved. the Evening Herald is the official paper of Klamath County and the City of Klamath Falls. . I, ' K Wednesday, October 7, 1925 WHICH DO YOU WANT? The Klamath News asks you-to get back of the South ern Pacific in its. fight to keep out the Northern lines, because it will give up a "main line east;" because with the "main line east" Klamath Falls will be "in the best position of any city in Oregon to reach the best markets in the world." At the hearing in Portland yesterday, George S. Long, general manager and vice president of the Weyerhaeuser company, testified as follows: "I realise I am giving this un.ler oath, and I say right here that our mill will "lie in operation the very day the Ore.ton Trunk enters Klamath Falls. V.- will mOt 150,000,000 feet of timber a year In Klsmaeh Falls. We will run -ur mills at full capacity the year round, market conditions permitting!." Asked it there was sufficient rail transpor;atkn In Klamath Falls to warrant this proposed development, he replied: "Absolutely not. Our timber Is lit a stage wlere it toast he cut or else sold within the voiutag years. Our markets arc in Idaho. Montana, the Dak :tas. Sltmiesjta and Wisconsin. Our oldest and most staunch customers arc in that territory. At the present time we are selling our customerj both fir and pine, but iwe need the KlamaGa pine now as our pine supply Is exhausted. We plan on the largest lumber mill In the county, together wltia a sasa and door factory. If the Oregon Trunk comes to the Klamath country. Klamath Falls will be the largest western pine manufacturing point in America. There is 1 no doubt abjut It. Yet, the Klamath News, wants you to throw this away for the Southern Pacific, on the plea that the S. P. pro gram is best for Klamath Falls. BAREFACED IMPUDENCE It is inconceivable that any newspaper would take, the stand that the Klamath News takes in the fight that ia being made to bring to this city the Northern lines. Notwithstanding that the very life of the community depends upon the coming of the Northern lines, The News openly and brazenly asks the people to get bad-: of the Southern Pacific in its fight to prevent its com ing. Grasping at a last straw, it is now raising the cry of a "main line service to the east," as if there was any one in the county that was opposing such a line. The "main line to the east" will be built, but when if is built it will be under common-user conditions. As the hearing progresses in Portland, indications are that the commission will attach a common-user condition to the Oregon Trunk extension. That will mean the com ing of the Union Pacific. When the "main line east," that the News talks so much about, is built, it, also, will have a common-user provision and thus the people of Merrill, Tule lake valley and northern California will have the benefit of the Northern lines, Union Pacific and the Southern Pacific. Back of this "main line east" propaganda is something that the neople generally are overlooking. When the talk of a line through the Tule lake valley first started the directors of the Klamath Irrigation district passed a resolution asking the government to refuse a right of way to any railroad, unless attached to it was the common-user condition. This upset the Southern Pacific scheme to block the extension of the Oregon Trunk into California and immediately its agents began a campaign against the directors of the district. This campaign is now gaining headway and you will hear a lot about it during the next few weeks. It is the desire of the Southern Pacific to make it appear that the directors are blocking the "main line east." Instead of blocking it, they'are working day and night for it, but they are also working for the interest of the people in demanding that any railroad that opens up that. territory shall do so with a common-user provision, whether that road is the Southern Pacific or the Northern lines. v rj . svvi vmHBaBBPL oAt the TINE TREE "Drutallty can be fought, but tlioro lit nu weapon URaluM ltttH let-en. e and oolduou," Th quotation from "Minnie Wives" now showing ut (ho Ijlho 'I'reii Theatre, strike the Ifbyllota of the picture, with Qorinna Writ' flth mid Milton Sills lit the featured roles It presents .1 phase of moil nrn itiorrlaxo that Bqtui muter the veneer of lullei'-duy domestic fe tal Ions.

Fire and Health Topics Discussed at Chamber Lunch In kecking -with Fire Pjeventior; week, which is being nationally ob served throughout the United States this week, Keil:;i Ambrose, fire chief of Klumalh Falls, spjko before the forum luncheon at the laiamber of commerce this noon. "Carelessness Is the modstor that Is each ivear taking thousands of lives in the United States by fire," he doclured. In gtvlug statistics for the past two years he s jwed where five hundred -ud (i.vcnt'.-Uireo mil lions of dollars wl.ub a loss of 15. 000 lives was the record In the United States for last year. Fire prevention has been observed In United Stales since as far hack as the year 1835 but never nationally until the great Chicago fire In 1S71. Urging every precaution against the use of gasoline and Its great danger, Mr. Ambrose explained what few people realize, that one gallon of igusollne has the power of 83 tons tat dynamite. "The city council is doing every thing within its power to get a pr.iper sewerage system for Klam ath Falls," stated Dr. O. S. Newsom, county health officer, iho spoke on sanitation before the chamber of commerce, following the talk by Keith Ambrose. "We must realize that the present sewage disposal system was built to take care of a city wlt.i a population of not more than 2,500 people,1, he said. He urged the conditions be taken care o witu the cooperatfon of every cltlzon before the city goU more thickly populated. "At the present time the ' council is attempting to secure t';e services of one of the most ablo sur veyors in the country bo conio here to help solve the present conditions'' be said in closing. . e, - By I H.UtlJ-lS 1". STKWAHT WASHINGTON-. Senator Curtis has succeeded finally iu throwing : real scare into the Washington Bure aucracies. Talk about abolishing some of them, consolidating others, cutting down tiheir persouncls to a business j baslsj hnd eliminating a lot of tae waste that most of them have been responsible for has beee going on ever since the war. It hasn't worried them much. So long as congressional action was necessary to, trim them In size and reduce theiu in number, it was pret ty certain to the bureaucrats them selves, as well as to others, tiiat Uey were In little danger. Senators and congressmen, hardly necessary to say, have found places in these bureaus very handy to pass out to political henchmen and french women. Naturally they don't like o sec ail end put to this patronage. For one thing, losing It will cramp them In future. For another thing, caah little bureaucrat whose Job Is abolished will hlamo his par ticular congressman for it. ujid so will his friends, and it may make a difference to the congressman 'him self when the next election day rolls around. In a general war. a majority of the' lawmakers recognize that the government is "ovor-bureaued." But when it comes to putting the Indian sign on some one particular bureau, all those iwao have a person al Interest In it object strenuously. "We need consolidation and re duction," they, agree, "but not In this spot. This bureau's essential. Let's economize elsewhere." Each lawmaker is also aware that If he votes to abolish some other lawmaker's pet bureau, the latter will vote to uboliah his pet. That's why the bureaucrats remain so care free while nobody but congress dis cusses retrenchment. Now, .however, comes Curtis with the announcement that he intends to Introduce a bill giving blank-it authority to the president to do all the executive reorganizing, (consoli dating, readjusting, and reducing as he sees fit, congress Indorsing what ever he does In advance, and letting It igo at that. The bulk of too senators and representatives won't like this, but it's a plan they will find It, very difficult to reject, 'inasmuch as t'hey admit a reshuffle of the executive sub-divisions Is badly needed, and everybody can see that tih&y them selves are unable lj do anything abrut it. WASHINGTON Ilocent events In Washington probably have given a pretty widely spread impression that all isn't quite right with Ameri can national defense. This Impression is correct. The controversy over the merits' of war versus surface forces isn't the only trouble. Still worse, army and to some extent navy morale Is badly shattered. Whether one considers Col. "Hilly" Mitchell right or wrong in his avia tion views, nobody ran hold lite opin ions he expresses of his superiors are those of a man in a frame of mind to work effectively toward the ends that they deem best. Now, Col. Mitchel is not alone In an unfavorable opinion of these same superiors. He simply Is the only one who says in public Just what he thinks. A great deal of the war department Is fairly saturated with discontent. Any numher of officers are ready to voice such sentiments in the strongest terms if assured they won't be quoted and thus get into difficul ties which not many of them enn afford to disregard as Col. Mitchell can. Still, they do talk with an occasion al outsider and. of course, far more freely among themselves, i . It isn't aviation deficiencies sole ly that all the kicking Is about. The complaint is that the country's whole military establishment Is running down. That it's on a peace, instead of a war basis is recognized as all right, but the malcontents' argument Is that retrenchment has gone altogeth er too far. .Maybe the establishment's slzo is adequate, they say, but Its quality is being allowed to deteriorate. In short, the growling. In Its last analysis. Is directed against the ad ministration's economy policy. Dissatisfaction In the navy depart ment Isn't quite so acute. The person nel, however, does fee the pinch of tight times, and armament limita tions are bitterly resented, too. However, the nary men nre not so seriously at odds among themselves. Probably this Is due in part to the fact, that they haven't been spilt by the aviation dispute which has rent the army. Few if any airmen take the posi tion that their service has rendered nil others obsolete. Or, If they do, they keep It to themselves. Nevertheless the departmental at mosphere is one of depression and discouragement. SIRS. HOItTON SIIOI'I'INO Mrs. J ink llorton of lllldebrand Is shopping and visiting with friends In the city today.
