Returns in the ceasos V V contest being sponsored bjr this newspaper indicate generally optimistic view on the outcome of the cur rent check-up, with tome estimates running' fibnlooily high. Conservative estimates place the figure for the city at about or under 20.000, bat there are r--y who believe it win go much higher than that It shoald be kept firmly in mind that the city limits of Klamath Falls do not surround the real city of Klamath Falls, asd that there is a population of thousands which will be just outside those limits. This fact may cause disappointment to the more optimistic folk who are talking figures like 25,000 and tip. The wests is scheduled for completion In the city by April 15, and it will be some time after that before the final figures are announced. Preliminary figures may be given out before the final, specific coont is announced. The sort of as impression Klamath and lake counties make on, visitors is indicated in comment this week by Eva Nealon Hamilton in the Medford News. Mrs. Ham ilton, incidentally, said that she heard talk here of a population of 29,000 for Klamath Falls. Our own esti mate would place the real population of the city and its suburbs at jost about that figure. But 29,000 is far aDove tne population figure for the city as it will be technically . considered by the r census bureau. We're pretty sure of that. , Getting-back to Mrs. Hamilton's impressions. She says she was "thrilled by the sense of industry, which has pervaded that section (Klamath and Lake counties) promising to make a real city of Klamath Falls and a very prosperous town, at least, mi Lakeview." Speaking of Klamath Falls, she said: "When dark claimed the city, a million lights came out to beckon Saturday night shop pers and revelers into Klamath Falls. There every one seemed so much alive .... There the people are Jook- were thrjUed. wttfc the energy and vigor of Klamath Falls and "the strange charm of the great barren moun tains wwcQ rise up out of ner fertile valleys." Those are flattering words from the Medford editor, who went on, fav-recounting her trip, to describe the beauties of the Eogne river valley, as seen from Green springs grade, with well deserved tribute. What this visitor felt in the atmosphere of this area is often re marked upon by others who come here and regard this as one of the real live spots of he coast. As time goes on, it will become more and more a beauty spot. Vast progress is being made in the beautification of private property with trees and shrubs and flowers. Parks and other public property are beinsr develoned. This is cer tain to continue, making the Klamath area increasingly attractive ana pleasant lor visitors and home folks alike. Recently the mails reaching the editorial desk have carried a number of anonymous letters, and others on political subjects whose authors do not wish their names mentioned. Neither type of letter can be used. Letters on political subjects must be signed by the name of the contributor. Anonymous letters gef no - consideration. These are rules that will bear no exceptions. Dispatches say German soldiers swarmed into Nor way before the invasion disguised as traveling salesmen. No doubt they were armed with a lot of good stories, too. After swimming through hot oil, five German officers reached land near Oslo, where they were intercepted by Norwegian soldiers. They were able, however, to slip out of custody, according to Berlin dispatches. Presumably the oil helped- in the slipping.

His information has been partly confirmed through In view of the pro-communist-nazi tendency already exhibited by the Mexican government in its efforts to sell seized oil from American properties to Hitler, our diplomats are looking care fully for every piece of inside news from south of the Rio Grande. KID CLOVES The pecular diplomatic rela tionship which has been 'permit ted to grow up between the United States and Mexico is evi dent in the fact that Mr. Hull has privately expressed gratifi cation that his last note was pub lished by the Mexican papers. When an American secretary of state must find gratification at such a common and small cour tesy, you may well comprehend the extent to which radical Mex ico is following the Hitler-Stalin tactics. Such American patience with an obstreperous neighbor is founded upon the knowledge that stronger tactics might have reverberations down to Cape Horn, a situation which Mexico has played to the utmost. .Several congressional resolu tions for an investigation to as certain if American rights have been violated by Mexico (parti cularly the Hennings resolution calling for a special committee of five) are being held in abey ance in accordance with state department wishes to ascertain if Mr. Hull's patience is justi. eBML 11sbJ PW I WWTt TB TNow I knew hy Mom tells tne to pot my band over my mouth when I yawn. . fjed by . immediate cominf events.

This device which supes the speed of planes up 33 per cent and more, is on tbe P-38 which has been re leased to the oppressed Britons. This now released super charger was formerly listed among America's inviolable de fense secrets, but administration officials were persuaded to let it go because we have developed a new one which is slightly bet. ter. The British will have a hard time breaking down the se cret for their own use even though they are in possession of it. It is based on an alloy pre paration the process of which is extremely difficult' to break down. Only one American com pany make H. A competitor has attempted for two years to discover tbe process without suc cess. New American flying fortresses with the device will make over 323 miles per hour, and only 230 miles per hour without it. The far more valued bomb sights have not been released. It may now be said, however, that the United States has two bomb sights, both about the same. Of ficials have no thought of releas ing either. CUMMIKG3 Homer Cummings, the ex-attorney general, is being pro moted by some Rooeeveltian of ficials for the keynote Job of temporary chairman at the dem ocratic convention.

RIGHT OR WRONG ABOUT PEOPLE By DONALD A. LAIRD In many communities nowa day there Is space to waste in the school buildings. In the big dties, some school buildings are not being used at alL In other places, many rooms are not used. This is something which makes professional pessimists be lieve the U. S. is dying out. As a matter of fact, the less heavily populated school buildings mean nothing of the sort. i Here is the true inside lnfor-, nation on this puzzling situ-! lion: When the American sot- j diers returned from the first ; World war. there was marriage ' rush, the like of which has never : been seen before or since. And ss night follows day, there was a tremendous Jump in births i In 1920. when nearly half a mil lion more youngsters were born ! than In ordinary years. Tbe year before and after this also had an abnormal number of "war babies." When 1923 rolled around,1 school boards consequently were faced with around a million ad-. ditional beginning pupils to edit-' cate. This required new build. , -.! School boards didnt realize ; that this big bulge In new pupils : was Just a temporary situation, j so they built far too many school j rooms. i So you see. empty school j rooms are a symptom that IS and ' 20 years ago more school rooms i were built than were needed for a normal population. They do not mean that the country Is dy- ing out, or that people are ne-: glecting education. As a matter of fact, a larger percentage of young people near. Ing 20 years old are going to school than ever before. Don't be frightened about the ! future of the United State. Twen-1 ty years from now, there will be 1 at least 13 million more people here than there are today. Al though the birth rate Is only half what It was SO years ago; nevertheless, there are still a couple million babies being born each year. last -CHEYENNE KID" TOMORROW , .1 few1 at-a U MS ,W" . 11 SSI B1NG CROSBY LOUISE CAMPBEU UNDA WARt NED SPARKS Uws Crf uett Mtles WaJteT 0rA LAST M "MARSHAL OF MESA CITY" and DAY "YOUNG AS YOU FEEL" Jones Family Pelican TOMORROW Starring tmcSSU ThMUs Demdi LAKE MITCHILL MORGAN with Vlrfiiia Grey brat Berrer Ala Hale WffliaM laadigan "UARCH OF miE" COLOR CARTOON AND LATEST NEWS
