the bottom and had damaged
another cruiser and five other
transports.
'The air force attacked Brit
ish sea forces successfully be
fore Namsos," the communique
said, describing yesterday's op
erations. "One anti - aircraft
cruiser was sunk by two direct
hits, one heavy cruiser was dam
aged seriously by a direct hit of
light caliber.
"In addition, one destroyer
and five British transports sank
after being hit, while five oth
ers suffered severe damage."
Declaring that "the German
advance in Norway continues,"
the high command reported that
German forces had taken more
than 4900 prisoners. Of the
front, it said merely that "At
Trondheim fighting still went
on yesterday," without indicat
ing how near Trondheim the
battle was raging.

parties than the four other
counties combined.
Klamath county republicans
represent' 63.6 per cent of the
total republican registration in
the district. Klamath demo
crats claim 57.7 per cent . of
their total. Approximately 56
per cent of all the registered
voters in the senatorial district
reside in this county.
Klamath county has 8120 re
publicans, while the aggregate
of republicans in the other four
counties is 7003. Klamath has
12,125 democrats, against a to
tal of .8886 democrats in the
other counties of the district
- This apparently dominating
iposition in the district is of par
ticular interest at this time-only
in connection . with the republi
can nomination for senator,
there being no democratic nom
ination. " But the situation has an in
teresting complication in that
three candidates are running for
the republican nomination, and
two of them are from this coun
ty. Senator U. S. Balentine and
Marshall Cornett are the Klam
ath candidates, while George
Brewster of Deschutes county
is also running for the nomina
tion. The fact that two of the can
didates are from Klamath may
tend to diminish the importance
of the heavy numerical edge
enjoyed by Klamath republi
cans. It all depends on how
Klamath republicans split votes
between Balentine and Cornett.
Presumably these candidates,
between them, will .get nearly
all the Klamath vote, although
Candidate Brewster is doing
some vigorous - campaigning
down this way.
Both the Klamath candidates,
of course, are going after the
votes in similar fashion' in
Brewster's . home bailiwick in
the northern part of the dis
trict, and there will be a strong
play for Lake county's votes. : ,
Lake and Deschutes, county
are together in one representa
tive district, and the only can
didate of any political complex
ion running for that job is Burt
K. Snyder of Lake county. Des
chutes is without a man in the
field for either nomination 'in

the joint representative district.
It is just possible Brewster and
his supporters are arguing to
Lake county people that this is
a show of friendship and gen
erosity that should be rewarded
with votes for Deschutes' sena
torial candidate.
On the other hand, both Cor
nett and Balentine. are well
known in Lako county, and the
friendly ties between Lake and
Klamath county are well es
tablished. Cornett, In politics for the
first time, is proving an active
campaigner and is widely
known, benator Balentine is a
veteran of the political wars
who has fought for votes In
these counties on several previ
ous occasions.
The outcome of the senatorial
race on the republican side
should be one of the mast in
teresting of the May 17 pri
mary election.
