Aa was stated by Hisrhwav Enirineer R H RaMnok highway transportation has u me operation or. uie regular Dusiness or this area. The closed highway at Aleoma has created innumerable inconveniences, unscheduled ness, etc., wnicn, cumulatively, mount up to an astound ing total. Closure of this highway for SO days will be a blow to the economic welfare of this community. That is why efforts have been made immediately. bv those primarily interested in public rmugeiueuia wiucn wui permit me xiow oi traffic through the area to be resumed. It is devoutly to be hoped that these arrangements can be completed im mediately. , Communities all along the line Chiloquin, Modoc Point, Fort Klamath, Chemult, Gilchrist, Bend, and many others, are suffering because of this disruption in reg ular transportation facilities. Cascade resorts will feel the effect. . Highways, like the railroads, are life-lines. We can not afford to have them blocked. Democratic Troubles AFACTIONALLY split democratic party in Oregon is definitely in evidence in results of the primary elec tion. The left-wing Commonwealth Federation, which took control of the party in 1938. showed its strength in the ' nomination of five Commonwealthers out of 10 delegates to the democratic national convention. It is possible that a great many voters did not know which candidates were Commonwealthers and which were not. but that does not alter the fact that the pinkish left-wingers have estab lished themselves more firmly m the saddle of Oregon democracy. ' . , ' . - More conservative democrats, who saw the Common wealthers lead the party to disaster in May of 1938 are angered and . disgusted, and therein lies the factional plit in the party. Oregon people, as a whole, are not favorable toward political radicalism, and so long as the party control is held by the left-wingers, its successes in this state are in doubt. ., Perhaps Oregon, politically, is working down to a sensible basis, with the line of party cleavage- between the radicals, as represented by the Commonwealthers and their ilk, and the conservatives, as represented by republicans and right-wing democrats. Once the re publicans were also factionally split, but the democrats got the wild boys in the band-wagon rush beginning in 193Z. FROM MR. VAN DENBERQ KLAMATH FALLS, Ore., (To the Editor) The fine rapport given m by Klamath county voters in the circuit judge pri mary election, nominating me to that high office, gives me a keen cense of appreciation and respon sibility. I assure the loyal sup porters who voted for me, and all the people of the Klamath county, that it will be my un erring determination to prove that confidence In me is not mis placed. I do not wish to make any far-fetched or grandiose conclu sions from the result of the pri mary election. I realize there were good men In this contest and I voice my appreciation and admiration for those who con ducted clean, constructive cam paigns for the office. DAVID R. VANDENBERG. FROM MR. SCHAUPP KLAMATH FALLS, Ore, (To the Editor) I would like to take this means of expressing my sincere appreciation to the . people ot Klamath county for their fine support during the recent election in my campaign as delegate to the republican national convention. While I would have been . pleased to have represented the republicans of the second con gressional district at the Re publican national convention I did not feel justified in making an Intensive campaign, due to the nature of the office. How ever, the complimentary vote I received from my friends in Klamath county more than re paid me for what small efforts I made during the campaign, and It is certainly gratifying to know that I received approxi mately eighty per cent of the! -V Cdtio CWMV.

MJLLUVSU TjrASHINQTON, May 11 First " blows of the blltikrleg hit our secure American economy as hard - as our defense. Our standards of money, prices, trad and living were shaken as much as our faith In our anti tank guns which become pea shooters in the face ot the SO ton land battleships which Hitler launched In Franc. It became apparent immedi ately to Mr. Roosevelt's econo mist that we had, for on in stance, accumulated nearly $19,- 000,000,000 of gold approxi mately two-thirds ot the 138,- 115,000,000 known world stocks to meet a world which suddenly might have no us for it. A German victory would mean the fixing of new world standards which used gold only tor bracelets, watches and filling teeth. In its place around the world would come trade by barter, synthetic money, politi cal price-fixing. And even if Hitler lost, the destruction he had wrought among his adver saries precluded the possibility that they could return to their golden way of living. The realization began to dawn on the government econo mists that when Mr. Roosevelt said in 1933 he would try some other means ot raising prices In his gold policy did not work, he was really saying that if jumping out of the third story window failed to achieve his purpose he would go back up stairs and try something else. TRADE TREATIES Surely also obsolescent In case of a German victory, and shaken by the blitzkrieg was the Hull trade agreement policy. Mr. Hall's economists have been forced to turn their minds to wards developing new methods. Their thinking now is develop ing toward the prospect of a po litical Instead of an economic trade policy, especially for Latin America. That is they see the need for barter which considers our political necessities for the security of this nation more than price and other matters. An ex port subsidy is what they have in mind. PRICE RECOLATIOK The transition seems to call likewise for a reversal of domes tic policies toward a prepared ness economy that may lead in the direction of state capitalism. The vast stores of armaments needed for security has caused the new dealers to start thinking first about government regula tion to control supplies of raw materials and prices. A revised reincarnation ot NRA has been talked.. Some of Mr. Roosevelt's men are even suggesting private ly he intends to use some of .the $200,000,000 blank check from congress to institute some such co-operative organization. Cer tainly the government cannot permit prices to' get out of hand and must prevent hoarding or speculation in needed materials. Sheepish distrust of the stock market for price levels lately has caused the local economists also to suspect minimum regulations might be advisable also. e STRENGTH SOUGHT Those authorities with whom I have talked are not thinking of this regulation in terms of so cial reform. All that now is a comparatively minor matter. The new tendency is toward strength, not socialism. . . What has happened here is that all established cliches of economic thought have suddenly been challenged by a great of fensive force. Such things as "defense of the dollar, "parity prices," and the like have be come obvious absurdities. The need for new methods has caused no great excitement here. It is true two government economists suffered nervous breakdowns last week under them. But there , has been no agitation or dismay in any de gree as extensive as in the touchy and poorly' led - New York financial marts. DISASTER CURBED It is appreciated here that even if old ways are being de stroyed, so are the old financial disasters which came with such revolutionary changes in the past The government is obli gated and has the power now to cover this period of transition. It cannot afford to let things go. For instance, extensive arma ments expenditures can have whatever inflationary force is necessary to offset attacks on prices and loss of markets. Not that any well-settled def inite plan ot action exists here. The 'blow came too suddenly. The government men are no where near agreed on details as to what should be done, but they are beginning to see what must be done. The worst you could exoect out 'of this would be . inflation SIDE GLANCES l waa rarraaK. aL V,aaa'u.a.T. That exercise certainly has put you in tip-lop shape. Mr. Smith bet you could sail riijht through an insurance examination!" which is the opposite direction to the one in which the stock market went. And it could not possibly be the same kind of in flation which corrupted pre-war Germany because the govern ment now has the power ot con trol over prices and materials to press the brakes as well as the accelerator. It appears probable the eco nomic readjustments can be worked out faster and more ef fectively than our deficiencies In military weapons.

J SECOND HAND DEALER RAPS E Charges that city licenses for second hand stores fall to give adequate protection against "bootleg" operations in the sec ond hand business were made before the city council last night by W. II. McPherrin, op erator ot the Sixth Street Ex change. McPherrin asked the city council for a refund on his II cense, complaining that he was being forced out of business by unlicensed second hand stores. He enumerated a long list of second hand stores which ho contended are operating with: out licenses. The mattor was referred, at ter a short discussion, to the council as a whole, the police department and the city attor ney. The polico department has charge of the licensing of all second hand stores In the city, Cantrall Objects Another problem arising out of city licenses was discussed during the short council ses sion. A representative of the Klamath Amusement company, Arcade hotel, appeared before the city fathers asking that ac tion be taken immediately on tho amusement company's ap- llcation for licenses to operate 10 pin-ball machines. The Klamath Amusement com pany has paid tho city $1500 for license for tho year, plus $100 for operation of tho 10 machines, but the licenses have not been approved. Councilman R. A. Cantrall brought tho Issue to a. head by exclaiming that he objected hav ing tho council "rushed into the mattor." The council decided to investigate further before tak ing action.
