Brief Comment
THE people of Klamath Falls and Klamath county ap
I uarently haven't given it much thought, but it is a fact
that thero will be two school elections Monday. In the
count7unit district (exclusive of the city) a director will
be named for a five year term. Harry Wilson, the in
cumbent, and Ed Crawford, are the candidates. In the
dty two directors will be elected, and the incumbents,
Dr L L Truax and J. W. Kerns, are the only candidates.
Both are able men and public spirited citizens, and they
fhould have a strong complimentary vote, even if theie
no opposition. It is not-good that school elec ions
should pass with half a dor.en voters going to the polls.
A recommendation for revision in Oregon's primary
laws t SSrmH ; uninstructed delegates at national poli
tick c was passed by the Oregon republican
delegatSn at Cleveland. The delegates, as has not been
unusual in the past, found themselves confronted with
ridicule and impotency. This newspaper, for one, is
wearVVseeing Oregon delegations to the national con
ventions pledged to impossible candidates. It s just as
Hkeb - to happen to democrats as it is to republicans.
But trs "to make a sensible change in the primary law,

Important news to Klamath: Early potato crop esti
mates indicate a crop 12 per cent smaller than in 1935.
and 27 per cent smaller than the five-year average. The
forecast is from the U. S. department of agriculture. It
strengthens the belief that potatoes are going to com
mand good prices when Klamath's shipping season gets
under way next fall. And it makes the old potato act
of 1935, which never did have much approval here, look
more ridiculous than ever.

CLEVELAND. Juns IS One
ot the smartest things tha Lnn-
don managcra did was to keep
booka meticulously on their cam
paign' contribution. They kept
themselves ready tor a conirros-
stonal Investigation at any time.
Perhaps this Is -why no Investi
gation has been started.
It will come out eventually
that they have accepted no cam
paign contribution ot mora than
$2,600. This is something new
In campaign financing.
But the most Interesting Tiart
of the story will never come ont.
That is the one about the chocks
they have sent back to big con
tributors. Some very wealthy
persons whose names are known
to everyone have had their well
Intended offerings returned with
polite note to tha effect that
their money was not needed.
What the notes meant was
their money was not wanted.
Note The Landon bookkeep
ers say privately that 76 per
cent ot the contributions were In
donations ot less than 100 each.
Tho nature ot the campaign re
quired very little money.

PLAY
The shrewdest play ot the plat
form committee her has been
generally overlooked. That was
the deep bow mnde to the Town
sendites. The old age ponaion
feature ot the platform was ac
tually one ot its few surprises.
What tho initiators of It did
was to take the fundamental
basis of the Townsond plan and
propose to make It workable
That is, they promised pensions
(no ace mentioned) to aged
workers financed by a sales tax.
(The platform says only It shall
be a broad tax. but what they had
in mind was the sales tsx. al
though they did not want to use
that hated phrase.)
The idea, of course, was that
Dr. Townsend, In his bitterness
against President Roosevelt, will
invite his followers to vote the
republican ticket.
FERVOR
To most observers, the cut and
dried nature of the proceedings
hers seemed unspectacular. On
tha surface. It was a dull party
rany, as parties ana rallies go.
But underneath there seemed
to be a religious type of fervor
among the delegates, something
like that of the grass roots con
vention. It was not by any
means a sectarian type of re
ligion, but rather a moral seal.
the energy and Inspiration ot
Bryan.
For Instance, the delegates
seemed to let their lungs expand
every time "Onward Christian
Soldiers" was played by the
band. The hymn typified their
feelings.
There will be more of that.

SKCOXD CHOICK
The vice presidential nominee
was really the choice ot the con
vention and not of Ooveruor
Landon.
It seems that the Landon peo
ple and the Knox folks had some
personal Inner misunderstandings
in connection with , the Illinois
primary. Those were largely
personal and unimportant, but
the two camps did not get along
well after that. Also Col. Knox
was a close personal friend of
Mr. Hoover, and the Landon peo
ple consequently did not play
pre-convontlon ball with him.
The only thing which the Lan
don people really had to do with
the selection of tho running mate
was m killing off a numbor of
eastern candidates. There were
certain persons In the vice presi
dential race they would not stand
for.
The political generals In con
trol here believed that Col. Knox
was the second most logical
choice.
e e
AMBITION
The stories you have heard
about tha Landon people wanting
Vandenberg were not overplayed
They tried by every means at
their command to indue tho
Michigander to accept.
The real reason he would not
seems to have been entirely per
sonal. He is young in public life,
titty-one years old. His nation
al political future Is ahead ot
him. He did not want to choose
the vice presidential road bo
caus he thought It had a dead
end. He wants to go places,
and It Is very likely that he will.
.
WILLING
Ono vice presidential candidate
sont word through a friend to
Landon boforo tho balloting that
he would accept tho vice presi
dential candidacy it asked.
The word sent back to . him
was that he would not be asked.
