Weekend Roundup
ITis not good news that Carl K. Cook is to leave Klam
I ath Kails. Police Judge Cook has spent ten years in
this community, lending his vigor, personality and in
itiative to the furtherance of the public welfare par
ticularly tne welfare of the city's youth. He had a
prominent part in the awakening, some half dozen years
ago, to the need for constructive work in behalf of bovs
and srirls in Klamath Falls. He cnntrihiiterl pffortivplv
to the subsequent programs that were instituted to further
this cause. He served successfully as city recreation of
ficer, and after his election in 1938 turned in a creditable
job-as police judge. Known and liked as well as any one
in the city, he has a host of friends who wish him success
in Ms new venture in the United States forest service.
vThere is serious concern in the Klamath basin over
recurrent labor difficulties. The strike at the Lamm log
ging operations is the second to occur in the pine woods
ui mis district in tne space or a lew weeks. These in
cidents indicate a strong need for deliberate and con
ciliatory leadership on the part of both Industrv and
labor. There is certain to be public disapproval of
policies and methods which do not permit ample time
for discussion of issues before drastic measures are re
sorted to. With the world a-jitter and an enormous
project ahead of the American people in the financing
of an adequate defense program a problem that will be
felt in every American community there is a distinct
need, for stability in our supporting economic structure.
It s no time for the sort of attitude that calls for disturb
ing and extreme strokes at the drop of a hat
Curiosity about Klamath's 1940 census figures, not
so long ago at fever heat, has fallen off as weeks have
passed without even a preliminary figure being released
by census officials. Now we are becoming curious about
the reason for the silence. There have been some pretty
definite Indications that the city's population figure Is
going to disappoint a lot of the red-hot optimists, but
that the county total benefiting from the great develop
ment of the suburbs would be gratifving to all. We
are pondering if the census folks atje afraid of what, the
shock of the city figure may do to lis. '

The project of numbering the houses in the nearby
suburbs, a creditable enterprise of the Suburban League.
Is most certainly deserving of the fullest cooperation of
the folks Jiving in the affected areas. Establishment of
Jrnproyea man service is only one of a number of bene
fits derived from this effort to bring order out of con
fusion. With street name duplications eliminated, and
houses, properly numbered, public convenience in the
suburban districts will be enormously increased. These
projects are progressive and constructive, and public
spirited people both in and out of the suburbs hope they
succeed.
WASHINGTON. June 1 A
third term for Mr. Roosevelt
is beginning to appear to bo a
physical impossibility. Some
of the democratic senators like
Wheeler have lately come to the
announced opposite opinion.
They are judging from political
signs. Mr. Roosevelt has the
nomination alt wrapped up
ready to deliver to himself. The
war has inclined the people of
the country to lean more heavily
upon his leadership, thereby
making reelection easier.
This is all true, but those who
are more closely associated with
the president, those who see him
every day, have been led to the
personal deduction in .recent
days that the burden of work
which the war and defense have
cast upon him will prevent him
from considering reelection. His
superior courage is the admira
tion of all those who know him.
It is probably his dominant char
acteristic. But even Mr. Roose
velt can hardly be expected to
shake off tiie burden of the
twenty-four hour a day job he
has been forced to do lately, fore
going his formerly frequent va
cations and weekends at Hyde
Park. It is considered doubtful
that his doctors will let him
continue to carry the burden
for four more harrowing years.
His family seems to know it
now and accept it. One Roose
velt intimate told a republican
acquaintance this week: "You
can stop worrying now. He won't
run."

A break for the Willkie can

friends who have seen eye to eye
on many a subject and trust each
other. While no confirmatory
information is available from
the labor quarter, the Willkie
camp is counting on such a dec
laration. Willkie is having the time of
his life in the surprise movement
in his behalf so far. While he is
short on delegates, the nose

ABOUT SIPHON BREAK
KLAMATH FALLS, Ore,, (To
the Editor) With reference
to the statement of Mr, M. L.
OaeU, superintendent of the
OC & E railroad, rotative to the
cause of the break in the con
creto siphon of the Enterprise
Irrigation district directly under
the OC&E tracks, which ap
peared in The News on May 30,
we would say:
The track of the OC Sc B,
poorly constructed and Insuffi
ciently ballasted at tho point
where It passes over this siphon,
sank a few years ago until the
girders rested directly upon the
siphon. Aggravating this condi
tion, the rails were so laid that
rail-Joint was directly over the
center of tho siphon. '
The result was tint the shock
of passing, heavily loaded, log
tnlns cracked the siphon about
three years ago, raining a mull
leak- About a year ago the
OC tt E. at our request, changed
the rails so that there was no
Joint directly over tho siphon,
which to a degree mitigated
the concussion of the trains.
Slnco the siphon was so crack

ined each fall and spring. This
spring it was examined and

K-.iir uui w n c n water was
turnea in a small leak persisted,
which carefully measured, ran
a trifle over one second-foot.
This week, after the siphon
had been in use to full capacity
for n boot-two weeks with no In
crease whatever in the amount
of leakage, the OC & E. in a
meritorious attempt to bolter
the bad condition of their track
at this point, placed s plledrlver
thore and drove a line of piles
on either sldo of and almost
against the siphon, these piles
to replace the rotting, or sink
ing, mudsills which had allowed
the weight of the track to rest
on the siphon and the impact
of passing trains to damage It.
Immediately, when only about
half the piles were driven, the
leak suddenly increased to whflt
the OC & E civil engineer on
the Job estimated to be from 8 I
to 12 second-feet, or 20 to 23
per cent of the total flow Into

In view of the history and the
Immediate facts there can be no
doubt but that the percussion
of the plledrlver quickly finished

structed, poorly maintained

ABOUT THE FLOOD
KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. (To
tho Editor) There are many
who voice and sanction the
Chris Blanas letter In Satur
day's paper as to who failed In
responsibility to bring the con
dition at Algoma under control
and will look for an explanation
as to why such a small matter,
at least to an onlooker as the
break in that dike, was allowed
to create such havoc; the .futile j
use of calling the highway depart
ment at Salem when It appears
our local department or any j
contractor In town could have
choked culvert or canal with
sacked sand as Chris suggested,
or, ,two flat cars of Junked au-
tos with bales of hay, willows,
canvas -and rock should have
brought the break to a trickle
in a few hours, to have made
easy the dike repair with close
ly set posts or short plle.
Had the Algoma plant been
endangered, the lulck action
and little consequence would
have kept it from the town,
to have never known It hap
pened. If that is the woy we would
treat an Invading army, to sit
down and wait until It was all
