Getting Air Minded The Wrong Way
Weekend Roundup
llyHERE is the falls?" is .still a common question
' W among strangers in Klamath Falls. It was
asked the other day at a local business establishment
by a couple from out of town, and the employe to which
the query was addressed could not answer. She asked
someone else, and the visitors were obviously surprised
that a person living here was not able to answer such a
logical question.
This is the tourist season. Klamath needs the tourist
business. One way to attract and retain tourist business
is for all those with whom visitors come in contact to be
ready with correct information on anything local about
which the strangers may be interested.
That is the reason the Klamath junior chamber of
commerce, with the cooperation of the senior chamber and
the state board of vocational education, is sponsoring the
tourist guidance school in Klamath Falls at this time.
First of three night meetings was held on Thursday.
The next is on Monday, and it will feature instructive talks
and a colorful Oregon film, "The New Oregon Trail." This
picture alone is worth the time it will take to go down to
this meeting. On Wednesday evening, Frank Wire, state
game supervisor, will speak on wild life and fish resources
of Klamath county, giving information which any resident
here should want to know.
It is suggested here that effort be made to attend
these meetings. They are open to the public, and should be
of particular interest to those people employed in occupa
tions that distribute goods or services to customers.
Included in this list are retail store employes, service
station attendants, garage operators, hotel greeters and
apartment house operators, restaurant workers, transpor
tation employes, bank employes, barbers and beauty shop
operators.
While we are on the subject of tourist travel, we should
report another suggestion on the'name for the sreat hieh
way, route from Weed, Calif., .to Goshen,. Oregon (over
xno. vi ana the Willamette highway through Klamath
Falls.) . , ...... . - v .- .
-:The name suggested by a '.Klamath .business man is
bKyiine cut-off.;. v ...... jiiv:
Add that to previous suggestions such as Cascade cufc-
oir, Miasta-tJascade cut-off. Shas-cade Wonder Wajr. We
would still like to hear others. If a good name can be
found, let's publicize and give this route ;a!name the
public, will recognize and like. -'-
-1 We lean to the use of the word cut-offfor'it is trulv
descriptive of the route. Skyline cut-off has glamour and
is a good suggestion. Has anyone any others?

Roads are still slick and wet in parts of the hill

certain the time is now at hand for better weather, good
travel in the hills, outdoors enjoyment in the Klamath
country.
Those who like to live here are they who make use of
these outdoor advantages. They are one of the big things
that make it a great county.

UNION ISSUES
' KLAMATH FALLS, Ore (To
the Editor) The stumbling,
blundering leadership of the IWA
has finally led thousands of hon
est lumber workers up a blind
alley from which there is no
escape. They have finally cre
ated, so much disruption and con
fusion that a sizable portion of
the lumber industry is in such a
mess that the United States army
may be called in to bring some
order out of the confusion. None
of us want to see the army enter
the picture, but in view of the
fact that the - leadership of the
IWA has abandoned all regard
for either the welfare of the men.
the national emergency, or the
future of organized labor, there
seems to be no other course for
Uncle Sam.
Thanks to the action of the CIO
in general and the IWA in par
ticular, legislation certain to
hamstring labor is certain to
come in the immediate future.
What a field day the anti-labor-ites
in congress will have cruci
fying all labor for the mistakes
made by the CIO.
Of all the strikes that are crip
pling the nation's defense pro
gram, the strike of the IWA is
the saddest, and most stupid.
There was no need for it. The
rank and file did not vote for it.
Vet for some mysterious reason
of their own, the leaders kept it
going despite the fact that every
one is well aware that it can gain
nothing.
Months ago the Lumber and
Sawmill Workers union, sained
through collective bargaining,
everything the IWA is now out
on a strike for. The AFL lum
ber workers have been working
all the time and enjoying the best
wages and conditions in history
of the industry, and they got
them through intelligent and co
ordinated action and honest lead
ership. When the defense program got
underway last fall, the Lumber
and Sawmill Workers union
made a bid for decent wage in
creases, some local even hit the
bricks for a few weeks, finally a
temporary settlement was reach'
ed through the graces of the
mediation board. The men got
an increase of five cents an hour
and a promise of a federal sur
vey of the lumber industry.
Meanwhile the IWA accepted a
4 and 5 per cent increase offer
voluntarily made by the em
ployers as an appeasment meas
ure. In a few months the govern
ment survey was completed and
the findings released. The Lum
ber and Sawmill Workers union
hired a university professor to
break down the government re
port and make it understandable
to the ordinary sawdust savage.
Armed with facts and figures
gleaned from the government re
port, the union then went into
negotiations with the employers
on the wage question. In the
end a settlement granting the
workers another seven and one-
half cents an hour was reached.
Not a single man hit the bricks
to get it. The whole matter was
handled on a true collective bar
gaining basis.
Contrast this with what the
IWA did. No sooner was the gov
ernment report released than the
dual organization began belittl
ing it. Instead of taking the re
port and analyzing tt, the IWA
attacked it and did everything
in its power to discredit It. The
IWA committee went into nego
tiations witn a club Instead of a
brief case. The result was that
they ran into difficulties imme
diately. They failed to get the
same improvements in wages and
conditions that the Lumber and
Sawmill Workers union got.
When the IWA committee de-
' cided it had gone as far as it
could, the matter was put to the
membership for a strike vote. In
stead of being counted in the lo
cals, in many Instances the bal
lots were taken to Seattle and
counted by the top faction. The
results were then announced as
virtually unanimous for the
strike. A checkup in many lo
cals revealed the members voted
as high as 12 to one against strike
yet the vote as announced by the
Seattle IWA office was supposed
ly "unanimous'' for strike.
The IWA committee was called

WILL BE SHOWN CONTINUOUSLY TODAY WITH
A COMPLETE PROGRAM STARTING
to Washington twice to meet with
the mediation board. Neither
time did the IWA allow the rank
and file to vote on the proposals
made by the mediation board.
Although the IWA seems to Ig
nore it, there is grave national
emergency at hand right now.
The combined efforts of all the
nation's workers are needed if
America is to evade the fate of
France, and other countries dom
inated by Hitler.
There is only one place in
America today for a communist,
and that is six feet under the
ground.
Some 4600 lumber workers
and loggers in the Klamath dis
trict, and-the Rogue river valley
have chosen ' the Lumber and
Sawmill Workers union, AFL, as
their union, in the recent past, to
get better wages, better working
conditions, and to -help them
combat the subversive elements
that are now in our midst, to help
them get a better America, and
keep it free.
The obligation every member
of the Lumber . and Sawmill
Workers union. Is required to
take, requires every man to state
that he is not now and never has I
been a communist.. And if they I
lie to us and get in and we find it AHEAD OF LAW
out, they are blackballed, and; The state department
macKitsted in every AFL union
in America.

WASHINQTON, June 31
Arming of American mr
chant ships will never ba done
until this country is at war. The
Initial publicity drive to start It
now is being pushed into the ice-
dox quickly and quietly by ad'
ministration authorities.
They think the stories that
they would seek legislation to
place guns on merchantmen
started through erroneous inter
prelatlons of what they ara al
reaay aoing. wavy ts arming
transports, troop carriers and
such auxiliary ships. Apparent
ly word of this activity got
around in congress transformed
into a movement for all mer
chant ships arming as a back'
wash of the sinking of the Robin
MOOT.
Not many favor repeating
that mistake, which led us Into
the tast war as much as any
other. It proved suicidal before
Tho armament could not be suf
ficient to furnish any real do-
fenso against submarines. Mer
chant decks could not stand
many guns or big ones. The
submarines merely began to tor
pedo without warning. Need
less loss of life resulted.
The records show no cases In
which an armed merchantman
bagged a submarine before our
entry Into the war, and very
few afterward. But plenty of
merchantmen were sent down
by subs they never taw.
If the administration desires
to protect American merchant
men, prior to actual partlclpa
tlon In the war, tho prevailing
opinion of Its own military auth
orlties Is that ic-mo other meant
will have to be found, such as
convoying. Destroyers are equip
ped to be a match for their as
sailants. The feebly armed mer
chantmon Is only a deathtrap.
