Lumber and Defense A STATEMENT about the lumber industry and the pre paredness program, made by Defense Commissioner Leon Henderson in Washington this week, carried certain general implications which do not mesh with the facts as they relate to our particular western pine section of the lumber industry. Mr. Henderson said the preparedness program does not justify any increase in lumber prices and that recent boosts resulted from "unfounded rumors" of defense heeds. He left the impression that there had been un justified increases in prices. That is not true of the pine industry here, about which we are talking exclusively in ' this discussion. ' From authoritative local sources we learn that the lumber prices in the pine industry are considerably below the average price of last year at this time. It is true that there have been advances, but these are seasonal and are characteristic of this time of year when the air dried plants are going out of the business and the de mand turns to the supply of kiln dried material. Other factors enter into a strengthening nrice. The lumber business of this district has had a fair demand all year, inventories are relatively low, and there is still n active program of small home construction due to a considerable extent to FHA. Improvement in the lum ber business in this area took place before any recent government business was placed or contemplated. It is to be seen that the situation is based on the fundamental law of supply and demand. It is of local interest, also, that the pine industry In this section has been cooperating closely in the defense program and will continue to do so. The business here has participated in supplying defense needs and would undoubtedly do so even to the disadvantage of other customers if that were necessary. Our Grid Season Opens KLAMATH UNION high school football has provided much that is beneficial to the community in recent years. It has united the folks hereabouts in enthusiasm and spirit, and they've had a lot of fun pulling together in support of gridiron teams that have displaved courage, fight and ability. This year's season opens with an auspicious showing of spirit The Quarterback club, organized last year, is going again with an augmented -membership and excel- j lent leadership. Ticket sales for the games--there will be five of them have reflected wide spread Interest. Coach Gustafson reports that his team, while green, is the most "willing" of any he has coached here.: No hiigh school of the size of the Klamath institution has better facilities than those provided on Modoc field. The turf is In first class shape and the lights are ready to flood the field with illumination. AH in all, and win or lose, it looks like a Tin iPoonn coming up with a promise of plenty of good high school football for the thousands of fans hereabouts. SIDE GLANCES WASHINGTON, Sept. IS Tho) ut vi luiivm aa ncaiiani bdquk disclosing plane figure but you i may count it as certain we hare slipped lour out of every five I new planes manufactured In August to the British. The valiant underdogs re ceived total of about 300 from us in August: will get 230 in September. By November we will be giving them 400 and by next April, BOO or 800. nnetner tnta is enough is a : question. British production j ranged up to 1200 or 1600 a month before the recent air j devastation started. But prac-1 tically all their manufacturing j plants are sitting out in open ter-1 ritory as clear as the dome of St. Paul's cathedral, while all the German plants are massed in forests and underground. Mil itary men call the British plane factories "suicide plants" for that reason. e e e NOTE The published Van Zandt figures claiming 2200 planes shipped to Europe cov ered a period away back to Feb ruary 1938. MAINE VOTES The Maine republican sweep was actually 80,000 votes less than the highest republicans pri vately had hoped. The weather and a local political scandal ap parently kept the total from reaching those truly sensational proportions. Rain hampered cast ing of the farm vote which is considered practically all repub lican. A malfeasance case like wise dampened some enthusiasm. But this makes the net result stand out even bigger when you consider that the Landon people spent a quarter of a million dol lars in Maine in 193S and the Kansas candidate made two speeches there. This time much less national pressure was exert ed. a a a TREND RULES A wise old republican war horse of many past champions, commenting on the Maine result and differences within the re publican organization has told his colleagues: 'Politics is guided wholly by trends. If you are in a trend you can make a hundred mis takes and they will not make any difference. If the trend is against you you can do every thing right, and still lose. The Maine result showed only that willkie was right when he said he was in a trend. With the weather and a scandal against us. little money spent and practical ly no organization, we couldn't lose." con t two tv i Mivtci. we T. na m . pit ort.

Law Soon Determined SALEM, Sept. 13 (JP) After almost two years have elapsed, the people of Oregon will find out whether their union control law is constitutional. The state supreme court will hear rearguments September 24 ana s evulsion is expected a month or so later- There have been many legal delays since a three-Judge cir cuit court in Portland ruled July 8. 1939, that the law is valid. Most of the delay was caused by principals in the suit, who obtained extensions in fil ing briefs. The law, which prohibits picketing or boycotting unless more than half of the employes involved are engaged in a labor dispute involving wages, hours or working conditions, was passed as an initiative in Novem ber, 1938, by 197,771 to 148,460. The state had Just experienced a reign of labor terrorism in which many labor leaders went to prison. The AFL, CIO and Railroad Brotherhood contended the law was unconstitutional in that it conflicts with federal labor laws, violates free press and free speech, and violates the rights of workers to conduct unions. The AFL brought its attorney, Joseph A. Padway of Washing ton, D. C, to Salem last May 21 to argue its case before the su preme court. Five judges, who sat at that hearing, couldn't agree, so the rehearing before all seven judges was set. The delay in holding the May hearing was caused largely by pending labor cases in the United Sates supreme court. Both sides wanted to find out wht the highest court thought about picketing. The United States supreme court ruled that the picketing laws of California and Alabama were unconstitutional. Labor unions then contended that the Oregon law was similar to those oi California an Alabama, and hence should be thrown out. The state, however, denied there was any similarity.

He told correspondents 48 hours beforehand it would be on "American History." Broadcast ing companies had been in formed by presidential press sec retary, Steve Early, that no one could tell whether it was politi cal in nature and, therefore, the companies decided not to charge lor it. But Early saw the text of the address four hours after that de cision, and he dashed to news men ordering them to kill his earlier announcement. He told them that while the speech might look like "American History" to Mr. Roosevelt, it looked like a stemwinder to him. a a a GOING HOME The battering down of Utah and Arizona landmarks in the senate. Senators King and Ash urst, impressed congressmen generally, much as if they had been run over by a 70-ton tank which they had not seen. They can't figure out these unexpected primary results, especially in the case of Ashurst. The Arizona senator himself L saying he saw defeat coming last March and apparently he considers it a per sonal matter resulting from his inability to get home oftener. King likewise had only been home for an extended stay once in the last decade or so. In the case of King considerable new deal plotting against him was ob viously involved. By and large the cloakrooms have concluded it would be wise for everyone to go home and shake hands a bit. Adjournment may be speeded thereby. Schneider. 20. cashier. Resident !
