FRIDAY, SEPT. 13, 1929 A Dream Realized COMPLETION of the Klamath Falla-Alturaa railroad line bring to full realization a dream of the late Edward H. Harriman. In the days whn Mr. Harriman was associated with the Southern Pacific, he freanentlr visited this retrion Each visit convinced him that here was an empire the development of which could be brought about with ade quate rail transportation. Perhaps It was to strike the Klamath basin that his Union Pacifio branch was built into Central Oregon. Whatever hit plans were they were frustrated by his untimely demise. But others were dreaming also and in due course of time the line through Klamath Falls was built and the vision of a city which Mr. Harriman talked of became a reality. Just how large a city the master railroad build er dreamed of will never be known, but the evidence is here that his dreams are bearing fruit, and the growth in the future depends largely upon the further opening up of the trade territory of which Klamath Falls Is the logical center. - The celebration at Alturas tomorrow marks the be ginning of a new era in the Klamath basin. It should mean the early establishment of important wholesale houses in this city and the reaching out into wider ter ritory by the merchants in business here now. The op portunity is here and no better chance will be giver the business men and citizens of Klamath Falls to start the ball rolling than to have a live wire representation at this official opening of the new line which is termed "Breaking down the last barrier." The March Of Progress ; A MAGAZINE writer recently remarked that the American people have less feeling for their homes than any other people on earth. He developed his surprising theory like this: . Ever since America was settled, the population has been on the move. From colonial times onward, there have been unsettled places to fill up. Individuals and families have kept in motion, swinging from the east coast to the west without ceasing. Today the free land is gone; but the amazing progress of modern industry is providing a similar situation, as cities develop new manu facturing districts and draw thousands from the sur rounding countryside to work in them. . . : The result, he says, is that few families get rooted in one spot. A man may be born and grow to manhood ia Philadelphia, for instance; his son, instead of set tling down there, moves to St Louis for his work; and his sob. in turn, wanders about and finally establishes himself in Denver. The family that staya in one citj generation after generation, is the exception. We are so used to this sort of thing that we take i for granted." We are not yet settled into -grooves; and while we are considered a nation of conservatives, in a political sense, the truth is that no people on earth is so ready to accept radical changes in its social, and economic order. In other words, we are restless. Most of our trou bles and most of our blessings grow out of this fact. Stability and contentment are fine things. Taken to gether, they constitute the goal that nearly every man sets himself. Yet no man, once he has attained .them, ever amounts, to much afterward. Achievement springs out of discontent. The man who. is forever restless and dissatisfied, forever looking for "something better," forever believing that there must be a better way of doing, of living, of creating, than he now has, is the man who accomplishes things.' And the same thing is true of a nation as a whole. Because, we are so restless, Europeans who visit us go home shaking their heads and remarking that we have everything "but happiness. It is our restlessness that makes young novelists sit down and write books be wailing the fruitless sterility of our "machine civiliza tion." The same thing is responsible for our high divorce rate, our "crime waves," our lack of veneration for law. And by the same token it is our restlessness that causes our progress. - We who are now living probably will not survive to see the goal to which our eternal, restless activity .is bringing as. But it Will be reached just the same. Some thing very marvelous lies just over the horizon. Our restlessness will some day be justified not for Us, but 'for our children.

Mabel Walker Wlllebrandt little row with James Fraarla Burke or the re publican national committee. In volving th question whether the beat minds of th party eanaed her to whoop np the Methodists against AI Smith last year or helher It waa Just her own Idea, Inspire yonr correspondent to resurrect on of hi favorite dispatch aad glv It aom new trimming. This Is th story ot th touch Ing way In which th women of th country have been sa signally rewarded for their very large part last year la keeping the re publican party In office. It' a story that always Interest th female audience, If any. They Kxperted Marh none Air, willebrsndt was virtually running prohibition en forcement, the women of the country could. point to one wom an who was doing an outstanding on in in publle aerrlc and sug gest hopefully that, attar the new administration wa la, o t h r women would b given similar opportunities by Mr. Hoover and to be working -out that way. As his grateful party. Unfortunately, It doesn't aeem usual, the .men politicians have copped all the Jobs newly avail able. Even Mrs. WUIsbrandt has quit, after her failure to receive any reward except a gentle re quest to pipe down, and although there Is a woman member of th civil service commission, your correspondent doubt whether ther is now on In th entire government service outside con gre whose nsme Is fsmlllsr to one person In a hundred. There are at least two reasons. One Is that mal politicians want to keep all th Job for them selves and will do Just that as long aa thy- can get away with it. Ton eaa guees for yourself what th other on ia.- - Perhaps It's an Inherent fear that women are likely to upset apple-carts it placed la responsible posts. Take Mabel Wlllebrandt. Al though sh laslst that she was th goat Insofar a thos cam paign incidents ware ' concerned. and most persons here believe her desplta denials; it Is obvlons that aha Just couldn't hold her self to after severing her con nection with th government and with politic. 8h did fairly wall tor years, though treqaently she talked publicly -with too much frankness for mal republican officeholders, but lately aha has been spilling a few large beans. Now a man might hav don th am thing, but th answer la that he eeldons does. Consider the case of General -Lincoln 0. Andrews, who. certainly had as much to tell aad probably more. Andrew reelgned the Job of bow prohibition officer Is disgust, but he hasn't ever been Interviewed in th two or mora subsequent year and ha steadfastly refused to write anything. It can b ar gued rather eonvlr-lngly that her volubility I more In th isuhllo Interest tbsn. his taciturnity but not to the ordinary politician, who doesn't want th publle to know too much. , Mustn't B Independent Th politician' attitude ia wall expressed by Frank Ilsnt In the Baltimore Sun, describing the search for-the republican na tional coauaUt' female vie chairman.
