The association represented Klamath sports men generally in an effective and aggressive manner m that situation, and it proved the value of such an or- ganization. . The number of residents of the Klamath country who hunt and fish runs into thousands. Their sport is affected by public policies in the handling of game matters. No individual can influence those policies in the way an organization can. Yet of these thousands of sportsmen, only a bare few hundred belong to the Sportsmen s as sociation. ,. The individual who has ideas on fish and game mat ters or the person who wants this district to be assured of the best possible break in fish and game policies, can do nothing more effective toward attaining those ends than to join the sportsmen's association. The bigger it is, the more representative it is and the more powerful its influence. Those Outside Streets IN a letter to the editor the other day, Mr. Frank Ship man drew attention to a problem that calls for sympathetic counsel and aid for the people who live in the suburban districts near Klamath Falls. He spoke of the unimproved roads in those districts. It is an unfortunate fact that quite often, m platting subdivisions and selling the property, no arrangements are made for improving the streets. Soon there are many homes on streets that are rough in the summer, muddy and almost impassable in winter. A lot of effort can be wasted in "cussing out public authorities who are virtually without power to do any thing about these conditions. A constructive move would be to see to it that our legislators introduce measures that will permit the formation of districts wherein pro perty can be assessed for the improvement of subdivision streets serving it And for the future there should be extreme care taken to avoid the mistakes that hav resulted in the un fortunate street conditions existing in some of our near by settlements, wherein live hundreds of thrifty people who are an important part of the real Klamath Falls community.

Watching the men running, gasping, grasping one could not help but feel that the greased pig race was very much like our business conditions of today. The pig didn't get very far. If only our red-blooded Americans could get a strangle hold on the New Deal as Leonard Malek did the pig. . . . Perhaps then we could keep Roosevelt from selling our country. HARRIET M.

WASHINGTON, Aug. it inside stnrv of what lianueneil to Die Dies committee investigating fascism "d communism is not quite plain, particularly to the committeemen. All they know Is they were get ting along fine as long as they were Investigating fascism. Things began to happen to them wheu they started In on communism. Their witnesses started making stupid blunders like bringing In the name of Shirley Temple. A republican committeeman brought III the name of Mrs. Roosevelt. A democratic committeeman packed un and went home. Another dem ocratic committeeman shied away and said he could have no more of such a business. Inside pres sure began to descend from the administrative branch of govern ment. The labor department failed to answer committee let ters. The Justice department could not spare Investigators to help the committee. The com mittee Investigators started com plaining that they were being shadowed by investigators for the civil liberties committee of the senate. What Mr. Roosevelt Is wont to call the "Tory Press'' be gan to ridicule the committee. It all adds up to sometning. nrobably many things. At any rate here is the evidence that was not brought out, and probably won't be: TOO MUCH HKLP At the outset the committee was having a hard time getting the Justice department report ou its nail Investigation. This has never been made public. Up came Ben Cohen, member of the well-known firm of Corcoran and Cohen, who proved to be a friend of the committee in need. He thought he could get the report for the committee and did. He thought he might help in getting the income tax returns of some of the men the committee was Investigating and did. Mr. Coh en apparently knows some people. But then the committee got into communism, or more par ticularly into the long, shaggy locks of ClO's John Lewis. An AFL official was put on the stand. and he claimed a score or more of CIO leaders were members of the communist party. The chief Investigator of the La Follette civil liberties commit tee (which has been investigat ing little steel for Lewis) had once come over to the Dies com mittee and offered to lend two investigators. Such courtesy In congress is extraordinary. Chair man Dies declined witn tnanKS. Shortly thereafter his own chief investigator complained that the La Follette investigators were trying as it is called in the trade "to get something on me." Other Dies investigators claimed they were being shad owed by La Follette investigators. The Dies committee collected re ports on the subject for its own information which have not been made public but may be. John Lewis was Invited private ly to appear before the Dies com mittee but did not respond. REAL FUX But the real fun started after a republican committee put into the public record names of eight government officials of the league for peace and democracy, former ly the league against war and fascism In which the comrau nists are supposed to be boring quite well. Almost Immediately another republican threw the name of Mrs. Roosevelt Into It because she had addressed the World Youth congress at Vassar. where the town mayor declined to receive delegates because he thought they were either radical augers or sawdust from auger lng. Mr. Cohen brought his friend, Mr. Corcoran, along when he then "contacted" (that Is another trade term) democratic members of the committee. The contact must have been all right, because one of those contacted bowed out of the investigation and went home very quietly. A letter came from Acting Attorney General Thur- man Arnold that Edgar Hoover could not spare tbe 12 Investi gators requested from the FBI Someone in tbe labor department called up and said, In response to tbe committee letter, that de partmental Inspectors would not be available to help the commit tee. This struck the committee right in tbe pocketbook. The resolution adopted by the house authorizing the investigation ape clfically authorized the commit tee to get "legal and expert as slstance and investigators" from the government departments. Only 125,000 was allowed the committee for this reason, while NOW PLAYING PAT O'BRIEN BETTE DAVIS "HELL'S HOUSE" 2ND NIT SMITH BALLEW jj TANAMINI a BAD MAN" SERIAL STORY HAYWIRE HOUSE BY EDWIN RUTT Yralrrdari Tk Mills kr rmm to rub nut Hull lirlftln. iff Mka Had Irys Irt vamp.

And since coming lo the Pennington-Parker Restntorium she had successfully snooped In the roomr of everyone except the Great Pierre, Master of Magic. Up until that memor able Friday, entrance to that fortress of privacy had been de nied her. The reason tor this was thai the Great Pierre spent almost nl! his time in his room. He line come to this place to rest and with true French practicability, h was doing what he had paid to do This state of affairs had driver Miss Fenimore insane with curios ity. On several occasions she hac peeped through Pierre's half-open door and glimpsed a heteroge neous collection of trunks, bags, and bundles. They intrigued hci beyond belief. And then on Fri day, when Pierre announced hit intention of remaining away over night. Miss Fenimore had heard Opportunity knocking. Accordingly, when convinced that the household slept, she had slipped downstairs. And Wolf gang, the dachshund, had slipped with her, to the ultimate confu sion of Die Little Cheese. The first of tho Great Pierre's cases that Miss Fenimore opened proved disappointing. It contained a number of gadgets whose pur pose she did not understand. But, casting about, she found a long, wooden box with perforations all over it. It interested her imme diately. She unfastened the catch. The next instant Miss Fenimore recoiled in horror and uttered the shriek to end shrieks. And just as she did so a wild man with a gun in his hand hurtled through the door, leapt over a cascade ol snakes that poured from the box and covered himself up with the bedclothes. TT was all very puzzling to Miss " Fenimore. But she had no tim to consider. Too many snakes were festooning the floor at het feet Passed a moment in which Miss Clara Fenimore made a monkey out of the most nimble-throated coloratura soprano that ever lived Then Kinks Parker rushed into the room. He was closely followed by Sally Pennington, In bare feet. Bull Griffin, a gun in either hand, placed third. Behind him, simi larly armed, came Mr. Spaldinl Just out of the money. Mr. an Mrs Harkness were in the ruck simply also-rans. Kinks took the floor. "What the devil's going on? he demanded. Miss Fenimore pointed shakili under the bed. "S-s-snakes," she quavered. .JYe?' 1 know," said Kinks "They're probably harmless Pierre uses them in his act, 1 guess." "I I must have been sleep walking," panted Miss Fenimore guiltily. "And all at once I came to In here with a box of "S-snakes." Sally and Kinks exchanged llances. Then, suddenly. Bull Sriffln stepped past Kinks and stripped the covers from the Bed. the LaFollette rlvll liberties com mittee has recelred 1 150,000. EXPERIENCE Chairman Dies thereupon called an executive session of the com mittee. In which everything was thrown except the chairs and table. The democrats finally con vinced the republicans that po litical trickery would ruin an al ready heavily oppressed show. A fresh start was decided upon, possibly because Dies had about 10 partisanship matters In his vest pocket, matters dug up by his In vestigators, which helped to make partisans see the light. It Is as good a story of Inside Washington as you will ever find. It has been an educational ex perience for the committeemen and perhaps for everyone else concerned. But It may take more than the 12 FBI men which the committee did not get to find the answers. "LIFE OF EMILE ZOLA TOMORROW CONTINUOUS SHOW mm . ;!

"What about the snakes?" Kinks ask, as he followed Sally up the stairs. "If they're harmless." said Sally, "they can stay where they are till morning for all of me. Pierre can collect them when he gets back." For a moment they lingered at the top step. "Gosh," said Kinks, "wouldn't it be something if a sane, sensible person showed up here sometime? One. Just one." "Don't bring up impossibilities at this hour, my dear," said Sally. "Good night." She was wrong. It wasn't Im possible for a person in full pas session of his senses to visit the Pennington - Parker Restatorium. Such a one appeared on the fol lowing morning.
