The cuss words came from quite decent looking citizens, who threw them off carelessly without regard to the proprieties adhered to lor so many years by even the roughest element of males. Now this writer has never been classed as a prude, and he fears he himself has been heard to express himself in rawer, strong language in the presence of members of the fairer jSHU.- But it occurred to him today that there is too mw rj, that sort of thing going on, particularly on the jrtwwJsr it is likely to come as a shock and an of- TiAs 'sersons not accustomed to rousrh talk of anv v rn. vjie nas neara it frequently on Klamath streets, lit a. a. j j , WBAVat tunm none mo goo a a reputation anynow as a place for women to walk, and as a possible offender he suggests Jiroe reiorm aiong uus line. He wno swears confesses certain inadequacy in the use of the language, but if it must De done it would oe well to keep it from becoming public nuisance. In this connection, it is recalled that the late Barney viwuwn oi jvismaui rails, wno innented certain old tone chivalries from bullwhackine dava in th nld smith. west, at one time became so wrought up over street swearing that he wrote a letter to The Herald and News announcing that "from this date I will not stand for wearing oeiore women."

It consists of heavy cable to which are attached sev eral doren chairs, suspended from the cable by an at tachment which permits passage over the score of steel towers extending up the mountain side. It's an endless chain idea, with one column of chairs moving slowly up the mountain, while another is coming slowly down the mountain on the other side of the towers. Your first impression when you get on is that it is much like a ferns wheel ride. The lift is not stopped, however, to take on a passenger.

S9 Th cheerful tip hat been passed to the White House by congres sional leaden that the lease lend bill will lose no more than 20 votes in the senate and have majority of more than 100 in the house after its most ob jectionable features are patched with amendments. This is what Senate Leader Barklcy and Speaker Rayburn have told the boss. Yet they are scared Incoming mail from the peo pie is worrying all their boys who will vote. Democratic leg lslators from Missouri and many parts of the south are dis- mroea because they have re ceived so little. The big op position names, Nye, Wheeler, Ham, Fish and Ludlow claim to be dragging in the fan approval and apparently are. Then, too, many friends of the meas ure are writing in to inquire gently if the bill means war, Popular worry over the great powers granted the president is also evident In the mail bag. None of these things now looks strong enough to upset the official calculations, but the Roosevelt counselors have or dered the time schedule speeded (hearings held in the senate simultaneous with the house) just to make sure FBI RIGHT Letdown in explosions, fires, and suspected sabotage lately tends to justify FBI claims that Hitler does not have much of a wrecking squad in the United States, or is not working what he has. You will remember the flurry of suspected sabotace some months ago was officially attributed to inefficiencies of operation and individual mon- key wrench throwing by com mies playing the Hitler game. Either the FBI was right or Hitler Is keeping his boys un der cover until after the lend lease debate is over, and the general Impression here is that the FBI was right. p j cow. ti mm cvm, rgt.awnn wr.a, -f "We both have to get out of the house for an hour or so every afternoon our home is cluttered with females barking 'Don'tl'"' when Mr. Hughes retires, prob ably in June. The appointment will not make much difference anyway. Mr. Roosevelt's appointments so far have given him an unshak able majority not only of the supreme court, but of all the subsidiary circuit courts except two. The judiciary is in line. This is probably the reason conservative Justice McRey nolds retired after obstinate re sistance to the new judicial era. Girl Killed As Auto Strikes School Bus PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. 29 (UP) A Roosevelt grammar school bus returning 17 children to their homes was struck by an auiomoDiie near here Tuesday, arming one young student and injuring at least six others. Eleven-year-old Alice Strinker was killed when the heavy bus was hit from the rear by a pas senger car ctnven by Lee A. Smith, 45, of Phoenix. Officers said the mishap took alsee when Smith turned his automobile on the rural highway after admittedly falling to ob serve a boulevard stop sign. In vestigators said his machine was traveling at a "high" rate of Speed, The impact of the collision threw the 11-year-old victim through the top of the bus. PROMOTED PORTLAND, Jan. 20 CP) Leren C.

COPIED You must have guessed the significance behind Mr. Roose velt's grand show for Lord Hali fax. It was acted out accord ing to a prearranged script for precisely the. same world effect that Hitler lias been trying to get by running down to Bren ner every once in a while to buzz mysteriously with his ail ing ally, Mussolini. a a QUARANTINE Colonel Lindbergh Is so thor oughly hated in the administra tion that both he and his ac quaintances tried to avoid meet ing old friends in the govern ment during his recent trip here. They feared It would prejudice the positions of gov ernment workers. One whom he definitely avoided was Lt. Col. Truman Smith, army air offi cer, whom he knew in Berlin, a a DEFENSE Mr. Roosevelt is not tryina to be coy by saying he knows whom he will appoint to the supreme court, but cannot let it out for a long time. He Just invented this little personal mystery game to keep the can didates off his neck while he is engrossed in defense. The public was never aware of it, but some of the recent appointments were preceded by msiae campaigns as hot as a political ruckus and all the heat descended on Mr. Roose velt. The campaign in behalf of Justice Douglas hit mid-summer temperature. Most of the stok ing was done without his con sent. He was doubtful whether he wanted the job. But bar as sociations, organizations and in dividuals In all parts of the country were organized Into wiring by Western Union and political grapevine.

(To the Editor) I am Just one of a billion of earth's citizenry, yet I must be of some importance be cause I was called upon by the "Great Committee" not for my opinion, tney did not want it, but just for instruction aw to what I should have to do in the world's work. They said briefly and to the point, from their point of view; that they had given the subject a great deal of consideration; that this "Committee of the Whole World" had reached cer tain conclusions and that these determinations would have to be tried out without any "back talk" from any person: That the world was in a "hell of a shaDe" and that the "Great Committee" had made certain determinations which it was going to put into ef- leci right away in order to get mings straightened out. They told me that I need not consider myself particularly flat- lerea, Decause these instructions were being handed out to ooay, ana mat strict compliance with same was the only safe way ior anyone to Dursue. i asKCd them "on whose nti- tnonty they were actine?" Thev replied: "On the authority of ex perience and intellectual pow er." "That somebody had to ax. sume jurisdiction, definite and up-io-date, and that they had assumed such, merely as a start ing point. That the general out come should be left to destiny ui.uci b new leaaersmp or direc torate." This was all so sudden and the prospects for future questioning so meager that I had to "plug in" with a few questions about the whole theme and scheme. By a casual glance at the In structions, I learned that this new committee was about to ap point a new manager for the whole world who was to be obli gated to run the 'whole shebana" on a cash basis, and that those who could not pay cash on "the barrel head" would have to statin aside and quietly whimper until death's silence should waft them Into the shadows of oblivion where their Interests would peter out. I asked them if they had anv person, particularly in mind, whom they wished to designate as such manager of the world? Their answer was: "That they were considering several per sons, but such manager should have to have the following quali fications: First he must be a business man who knew the val ue of the dollar, and how to use It In the interest of all those who had made a material success in the world, and who had stored up a great "reservoir of cosh capital." They quoted to me the follow ing popular phrase that conies from some where: "To him that hath shall be added unto, and to him that hath not shall be taken away, even that which he hath. I asked them if they had con sidered Jesus for this position? Their answer was no: "Thut He was not a business man; hnd no property; did not pay any taxes, did not believe in war nor in the survival of material might and power." I also asked them if they re garded the whole of humanity "as a crop" that had to be har vested every twenty years? Their answer was: "So It seems" "Now you be quiet and we'll all find out."

Ore., Jan. 29 W) Phillip Suirtter, 7, of Portland, declared from a hospital bed to day that 8000 in currency and 5500 in gold dust was missing from a traveling bag he carried when he boarded a bus Jan. 21 at Grave Creek for Portland. The bus overturned near Graves Creek, which is 18 miles north of Gran Is Pass, and Suet ter suffered a spinal injury and i was brought to a hospital here. Today his wife told Detective W. C. Fetters she took the claim check to the bus terminal and obtained the bag. The money, which Suettcr asserted was In five $1000 bills, one $300 bill and five $100 bills, along with 14 ounces of gold in two bottles, was missing. Suetter said he operates a gold mine near Grants Pass. He said a good many people knew tout he frequently carried large amounts of money and gold with him.

Thomas Dunn English PRAIRIE DOGS DRINK KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. (To the Editor) In "This Curious I Jf WirflcNtt vv una cartoons Dy rvnnam Ferguson, I see this statement "Prairie dogs go through life without a drink of water." You can tell Mr. Ferguson for me to go stick his head In a hole in the ice. I happen to know that isn t true. When I was a child we lived in Oklahoma. Prairie dogs were thick. Once we drowned some out of their hole by digging a trench from a buffalo wallow and draining water into it. Three young ones came out that did not have their eyes open yet. We took them home and gave them to our old cat. She had three kittens. She raised the three prairie dogs with her three kittens. She seemed not to know the differ ence. When the prairie dogs were grown we gave two away and kept one. We had him for about three years. During that time I saw him drink water many times. He was given the complete freedom of the farm and was never penned up, so the conditions of his life were the same as a wild prairie dog. Let me repeat: prairie dogs do drink water. Sincerely yours.
