They drove along mues oi gooa roaa Detween marble-white walls that, at the upper end, were almost double the height of the car. They saw the fantastic trees glistening in heavy winter dress. From the shadowy eanyon at government camp, in the late afternoon, they could look up at the white ramparts or a great ridge, still bathed m the sunlight. It was a white, beautiful world, well worthv of nnv- body's while to see, and yet it requires so little' effort to go right to the middle of it. Modern snow-fighting equipment has conquered the drifts, and on Sunday cnamiess automobiles sped swiftly to government camp. In a few days they can go to the very rim of the lake itself. For years, there has been talk of the opportunities Crater Lake offered for winter trips. The park service, at last, nas consented to Keep the roads clear on a trial basis, to see how the public would respond. It is be lieved that if attendance is good this winter, favorable consideration will be given to making Crater Lake an all year national park. It is important to Klamath people to do their part in creating this attendance. Anybody who has been to the park this winter will agree. Certainly no one here, who has an automobile or can get a ride, should miss taking at least one trip to Crater lake this winter. WASHINGTON NKWS IIKIIIM) TUB NKWS a T1i Inaltlo Blory From Tho Cupltul a a a Ujr PAUL M.VLLON Copyright 1936, by Paul Million SIDE G L A N C E S-b Ger cu One of The Gang IF Colonel Lindbergh would follow the example of J. P. Morgan in his relations with the press, he might find the tension lessened and much of the annoyance gone. Morgan used to run away from the reporters. News photographers couldn t find him. But recently he has found the press gang not such bad fellows, after all. He talks with the reporters and poses willingly for photographs. The newspaper News dom reports that the correspondents have found Morgan a good sport, a good subject for pictures, and a man of excellent wit. And Morgan, no doubt, has found the situation much happier for himself. Colonel Lindbergh would probably have a similar ex perience. If he would warm up to the newshawks, he could probably count on their leaving him alone when he wanted to be left nlonc, and their cooperation in avoiding publicity of the type which it is his full right to prevent if he wishes. Pretty Flimsy (Astorian-Budget) ' GOVERNOR HOFFMAN of New Jersey is now trying to shift the blame of his action in granting a reprieve to the Lindbergh kidnapers to the shoulders of Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt. The New Jersey executive in a re cent statement says that Mrs. Roosevelt's comment to the effect that the evidence against Hauptmann was purely circumstantial has aroused doubts in his mind. Of course the evidence against Hauptmann was pure ly circumstantial. Those who kidnap, kill, or steal for money, who perform such criminal acts through pre meditated plan, are careful not to have witnesses pres ent. In 99 out of 100 such cases conviction can only be obtained through circumstantial evidence, if the criminal does not confess. If the New Jersey governor bases his reprieve for Hauptmann on the "circumstantial" phase of the evidence against the convicted man, he is talking and dealing in nonsense. News of Oregon MARSHFIELD, Jan. 21. (AP) The Coos Bay Lumber company, owner of the two ships tied up by strike of the San Francisco sea men, halted operations here. The firm employs 900 men in the camp and mill. The Coos Bay Log ging company at North Bend will close Feb. 1, otficials said. Docks are piled with lumber awaiting resumption of shipping schedules. BANDON, Jan. 21. A mutual understanding between the iMoore Mill and Lumber company and the Sawmill and Timber Workers' union resulted In the withdrawal of pickets from the mill property, union otficials announced. Twelve union men returned to work and the Btatus of others Is being arbitrated. ed only by St. Paul and Jersey City. MARSHFIELD, Jan. 21. OP) A letter sent out by the Coos Bay Central Labor council crit icized Ben T. Osborne, executive secretary of the State Federation of Labor, for his report on the incident which resulted in the breaking up of a scheduled meet ing of workmen in Coquille, Sept. 8, 1935. The labor council said Osborne did not probe the occurrence from all aides. Couquille "vigilantes" so-called diepersed a group of men, giving rise to the investiga tion. WASHINGTON, Jan. tl. Mr. Morgenthnu told the soimtor. that it looks ns if Im will hnva to tap the bunkers' tills for five billion dotliira more In new Iohiih ahnrtlv Ua will MAA1 I l nnl ' the bonus, relief and tho process ing tax rotund. Forty-eight hours later, the man who wiu to handle all thla new financing for him quit, without official explanation. Naturally, all the Insiders and outsiders hero have been adding up these two ominous events and getting all sorts of answers, In cluding chaos, Inflation or what ever may occur to you. The only cortalu thing is that most of the current answers are likely to be wrong. No one knows the real answer. Including Mr. Morgenthau, who confessed as much. The way this vast incompre hensible situation is sited up frankly by tho best fiscal author ities here la this: Mr. Morganlhau probably will be able to avoid any greenback tug or lurlationury tricks to get his money, It he wauls to. Those who know how he and President Roosevelt have worked this money game believe that both of them will want to. There will probably be no more tricks now with the bookkeeping gold profit. They will need that Jl.SOO.OOO.OOO for the stabiliza tion fund for a long time yet. There probably will be no action to open the gold market, as asked by the committee for the nation. Nor is there any likelihood of re opening tho domestic gold and silver markets. One thing may be banked on. The taxee you have seen so tar are only the beginning of what you will see, after the election. 7 mu m Zffipgti m&kk ill it -. n i iV it situicr'mc mm h. ma o V From Other Editors "There husu'l been iinytliinij worth reading since some of Kipling's enrly tilings." PORTLAND, Jan. 21.(P) Nine Portland trucking plants remain' ed closed today. The Automotive Dealers' asso elation said the plant would not resume operations "unless to strike Is Immediately terminated" and blamed a union uemand for a closed shop for last Tuesday's walkout. The International Asso ciation of Machinist,, Local 1005, said employers refused to meet with "chosen representatives" of employes. PORTLAND, Jan. 21. (AP .

We should refrain from criticizing these men If they show an inclination to be merciful, especially if the least element of doubt of guilt is present. In the case of Bruno Hauptmann, however, the Gov ernor seems to be working his imagination overtime trying to find a reason for interference with justice. The thing that struck me funny in connection with this case is that right after Gov ernor Hoffman decided to grant a thirty day reprieve it was announced that the Haupt mann defense fund Ib now de pleted. There ar no doctors in Lapland PERSONALITIES Pleased and displeased fiscal authorities who know Messrs. Roosevelt and Morgcnthau thor oughly seem to agree that both are essentially sound money men. That is. they want to spend, hut spend within reason. Where the pleased and displeased cave dis agreed and parted is on the ques tion of where the line of reason lies. This Is supposed to explain the departure of Assistant Treasury Secretary Coolliige. Men wltB tne combination to the treasury vaults say Mr. Coolldge did not suddenly become displeased. Nor was there any definite break on a detinue Dolicy. Rather, they noticed Mr. cool ldge month by month lately be coming more and more depressed with the prospects of raising money to meet more and more expenditures. a CONFIDENCE There Is one new reason why the experts believe that Messrs. Roosevelt and Morganthau may safely raise the money in prospect. It is that the country is no longer finicky on the money question. If recent polls of public opinion are any indication, the people are thinking and talking about spend ing, unemployment, farm relict, etc., hut not about Inflation. In fact, the inflationist bloc was so weak on the bonus in congress the other day that it was unable to put up even a good fight. Two years ago, Mr. Roosevelt had to trick them out of putting some thing over on him (silver). The other reasons are tne same old ones which have enabled the unprecedented financing done so far. The banks are filled with money, have no place to lend vast sums, except to the govern ment. a a a BURDEN The inside on the tax situation is as clear as the imminence of unexpected spending. New dealers do not warn any new taxes levied before election. If they can help it. Tbey may have to impose some excise taxes In connection with the new farm program, but they will hold until the last electoral vote la counted to delay the new general tax leg islation which the current situa tion obviously demands. That Is good politics. It is equally clear where the new hurden is going to fall when it does. There is no more real revenue In the rich, because there are so few rich, Nor is there much more to be gained from the poor, and everyone eke, by sales and excise taxes. After all, the cur rent state sales taxes are' as much as that traffic will bear. There is only one place where the government can get such rev enue as Is now oeing lamea about. That is In taxes on income below 50,000. They will pay the bill.

Ten Years Ago In Klamath GLITTER No one here Is paying any at tention to the new pressure cam paign of the committee for the nation. The Idea prevalent on the Inside here is that opening of the gold market would cause the price of gold to go down, not up. Tho reason why the agitation for ro-openlng of the domestic gold and sliver market,! Is not getting anywhere either is mat such action might cause hoarding again. The current financial sit uation Is not yet so settled as to prevent a possible rush into two such basic commodities, out of re spect to their fixed value, which, Incidentally, has not been en tirely fixed during the last six years. a WORSE The tight-lipped secretary of the treasury was conservative In his estimates to the senators. The truth Is he will probably have to raise a lot more than $5,000, 000,000 In new money during the next seventeen months. He took a sub-bottom estimate on the bonus and on undisclosed relief needs. Also, he failed to figure In the new farm program, a possible farm tenant bill and a couple of billion dollars of other possible odds and ends. However, this does not alter his financing PAVE Lewis street! Improve South Riverside!
