Loa Anaelee Coplaa of tha Nawa and Herald, together with complete Inrormatlon bout tha Klamalh Falla market, ma he obtained for tha aaklnc at any of theae offtcea Franchise Fracas EXCEPT tliat it gave the councilmen a chance to show their independence, and Mayor Mahoney an opportun ity to make a well-timed, publicity-winning gesture, the franchise fracas at the city hall was not of much prac tical significance. With or without a franchise, the telephone company would continue to operate here, and it would continue to pay a 2 per cent tax, either as a franchise levy or under the utilities occupation tax ordinance. Those are the most important matters concerning the average citizen. ' It is true that several hundred dollars in free service to .the city by the 'phone company is involved, but we are not sure that wouldn't have come also, franchise or no franchise. As it all turned out, Mayor Mahoney may now say that he did his duty in denouncing the telephone com pany for its court fight against rate reductions, as he promised in his 1934 campaign platform. The council men, on the other hand, may say they have proved they aren't led around by the nose (as was suspected at the time of the water bond affair) and that, after demanding and receiving concessions from the telephone company, they played the square game, even if it required over riding a sharp Mahoney veto to the advantage of a "wicked utility." As to the rate case, it should be understood that the franchise has nothing to do with rates that are charged by the telephone company. This matter is in the hands of the public utilities commissioner, and at present it is being fought out in circuit court in Multnomah county. What is done here about a franchise can hardly have any influence on the outcome of that litigation, which, of course, ratepayers hope turns out favorably for the utili ties commissioner's office. Now that the councilmen won mat tney are not spineless, it is to be hoDed thev prove it still further if and when they are put to the test on some issues involving sound principle and re quiring real intestinal fortitude. Unified Program Proposed N Klamath Falls over the week-end was Dr. Frederick D. tricker, state health officer, interested in bringing about.' the development of the public health program in this county and community. He has suggested to the county court the formation of a county board of health, as authorized in state law, and the development of a unified program under a com petent director chosen from the ranks of young men thoroughly trained in the public health field. He pro poses certain extensions of tvo work through help by the United States Public health service. Certainly the unification idea, with one responsible head over all health service, is sound. The county court, which is constantly harassed by public health problems, would surely welcome the oro-nizatinn of health, and the plan has received the approval of city ! auuionues. Klamath Falls is an industrial community. It has a considerable floating population. Nearby is an Indian reservation. All of these factors, and others, serve to make public health work a matter of great importance in this county. Dr. Strieker is cognizant of this fact, and any plan offered by a man of his authority, conversant with local conditions, is deserving of careful considera tion. At the meeting held with Dr. Strieker last Satur day, officials and physicians admitted the program has developed in the past along independent lines, and that there is need for bringing order out of the resultant confusion. They Were Right IT will be remembered that, as New Deal legislation was I in the making or was first being tried out in the coun try, a good deal was said about the questionable con stitutionality of the program sponsored by the present administration. Comment to that effect brought many sniffs of dis dain. Subsequently developments have proved, consistently, that there was truth in what was being said by the critics of New Deal policy. One by one, major parts of that legislative structure have been brought down by the supreme court, which has found them at odds with the constitution. uch was the fate of the Agricultural Adjustment act Monday morning.

WASHINGTON NKW8 IIKH1ND THK NKW8 a a Tho Inslilo Htorjr From Tho Capital a a a Uy PAUL M.ll.MJN Copyright 1935, by Paul Mallon WASHINGTON. Jan. 7. Pres ident Roosevelt said In his budget message that ho was $1. 294.000,000 off In his budget last year. Ho ovor-estlmnted his ex penditures by $876,000,000 and underestimated his receipts by 1419,000.000. Most competent authorities hero believe the current (Isiirn are even less Indicative of what the government may actually spend next year. Therein lies the story behind current natural budgeting. It is that no nation has a real budget any more. Necessity or conven ience prevents it. a a I.KKWAY The Roosevelt technique of the past two years has been recog nised by all budgeteers. The pres ident has asked congress for far more money than we Intended to Bpend, Insiders say he had only one purpose. If the economic bot tom fell out again, he wanted to be in a position to cut plenty of money. However, be got authority while he was at it to spend the leftover amounts iu ensuing years. Thus. Mr. Roosevelt now Is still spending money appropriated by congress three years ago, and carried in tho budget then. Thus, he will spend next year whatever Is left from last year s four bil lion, and the three billion of the previous year. . These leftover amounts are authorisations, not money. If utilized, the treasury must go out and borrow the money for them. Hence, the relationship be tween the expenditures, debt and deficit is as much a matter of executive leeway as of budgetary determination. a a MISTAKE Saddest untold tale ot the old year Is the one about the build ing materials firm seeking gov ernment contracts. The firm was new to the wavs of Washington. It wanted to get a good contact man here to deal with the government. The name of a prominent democratic law yer was suggested. Firm members came here, called the lawyer on the telephone, went tn sea him They agreed upon a fee. and the lawyer undertook to aid them In getting the contracts. It was some time later that the firm discovered a grevous error. It had hired a republican larer by mistake. His last name "M "enucai witn mat of th prominent democratic attorney, but their given names (apparent ly, also, their contacts) were dif ferent. The republican lawyer Is now threatening suit for bis fee. a JEERING The house has unofficially chosen Representative Knutsou ot Minnesota as jeer leader. He has a long record of distinction in that line. It was he who led the chorus of gnffaws which yon may hare heard over the radio near the end of Mr. Roosevelt's message speech. Three or four comrades Joined In, but no more than that. Calmer republican leaders tried to shush the catcalling group, a a PERSONALITIES A strong personal element lies behind the current bonus dicker ing. The name of Texas' Patman (inflation bill author) is being crowded out ot the legislation by compromise composers. Believe It or not, this has stirred more re sentment among Patman lnfJa tionites than the admitted loss of the Inflation phase. Patman has told his associates privately that he spent 110,000 of his own money in the bonus fight during the last eight years. He stlU owes about halt ot It. a a PREPARATION'S Mr. Roosevelt's dire neutrality warnings may have sounded as If he had some Inner reasons to ex pect war beyond those generally known. Those who should know about such things say he has none. What his diplomatic outposts have been picking up in the way of inside tips are along the line of the following: Since 1933 the Japanese war ministry has allocated nearly 800,000,000 yen to civilian in dustries for military orders. Met allurgy, machine building and chemical works have been ex tended. No fewer than 30 new enterprises have been launched, 15 new departments added to old enterprises and 20 factories en larged. Most Important are the Yawata blast furnaces, the new Mitsubishi aviation factory, new aluminum factories in Fushlki, Nilgata, and Yokohama, an air plane factory In Tsurumi and a powerful chemical combine In Dalren. NOTES a W l The budget was not given out prior to its presentation. News stories about it were based on a summary, furnished by the bud' get bureau. Newsmen were told they could buy copies of the actual budget after it was pre sented. Mr. Roosevelt has removed most of the books from the shelves in bis office. One shelf now contains four or five vol umes. Nine others are bare. Before any legislative business was brought up In congress the opening day, seven congressmen Inserted speeches Into the Con gressional Record without read ing. This- will enable them to malt these more or less political addresses free to voters under their franking privileges. It looks like a big but unprofitable year for the government printing of fice and the post office depart ment. Mr. Roosevelt rehearsed his speech privately for sound a few hours before he delivered it to congress. A congressman noted on a SIDE GLANCES-1" cr ciru ?'I don't like to turn in such a big day's work, but you gotta move around to keep warm anyhow." news ticker one of Ham Fish'ii apparently endless sorios of state ments. The congressman called n local news offiio and tried to in duce the editor to use the head line: "Fish II r oaks Lung Silence." Proof of equality before tho law was offered when tax au thorities linked the cases of Jer- Itxa and Sophie Tucker, culllnn them 'both sinRers." Over 100 WPA workers trans ferred from forest service crews are beginning the task ot undoing what man has done on about 1,320,000 acres of burned over. second growth and cutover timber land in the Oregon coast range. These are the vanguard ot ap proximately 1000 workers who will he assigned to the project as rapidly as possible. Erasing the mark of fire, axe and plow, and protection ot the young trees of tomorrow's forest are the first consideration of the development program for which 720,000 has been officially al located, announces Walter A. Duffy, regional director, resettle ment administration, Portland. Outdoor recreational facilities, game refuges and Improvement of stream conditions for game fish are the secondary aim of the pro gram in the conservation area. Land included in the develop ment project consist of 604.000 acres already In government own ership, principally In national for est status, public domain and O. and C. grant lands. The remaining acreage is mostly In private and county ownership with a small amoun' of state land. The reset tlement administration Is purch asing about 65,000 acres of coun ty and privately owned land to knit the project as closely to gether as possible. Christian Science Church "God" was the subject of the Lesson-Sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, January 5. The Golden Text was "Among the gods there is none like unto thee. O Lord: . . . For thou art great, and doet wondrous things: thou art God alone." (Ps. 86: 8, 10). Among the citations which com prised the Lesson-Sermon was the following from tne HiDie: Ana Moses -said unto God, nenoiu, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall Bay unto them. The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What Is his name? What shall I say unto them? And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, ThuB shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath cent mo unto you." (Ex. 3: 13, 14). The Lesson-Sermon also includ ed the following correlative pas sages, from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the ScrlptureH," by Mary Baker Eddy: "God is Infi nite, the only Life, substance, Spirit, or Soul, the only Intelli gence of the universe, Including man . . . God Is what the Script ures declare Him to bo, Lire, Truth, Love. Spirit Is divine Prin ciple, and divine Principle Is Love, and Love Is Mind, and Mind Is not both good and bad, for God Is Mind; therefore there is in reality one Mind only, because there Is one God." (p. 330).

The plans for those bungalows are by Chick' Sale and. In our county, special supervisors aro working on the project to Inauro that each institution is construct ed exactly right.

COUWTY'S RELIEF Tho much-protested "May-to-October" WPA ruling Is proving a serious burden on the Klam ath county relief budget for Jan uary, It was learned Mouday. Many employables, on relief new, cannot qualify for WPA work because of tho regulation. As a result, tliey aro recolvlng direct rollcf. The January direct rollof bud get allowance was only $7110. Already all but $2000 is gone. The protested ruling in WPA Is that no one can bo hired for WPA who was not on rollof some time between May and Oc tober. At tho tlmo this ruling was announced, Klamath rollof officials declared It would work a serious hardship horo and would add, unjustifiably, to tho direct relief burden.
