It also raised conjecture on the pos sibility that informal staff talks might follow. A few vivid glimpses of the conferences at sea appeared in the London Daily Man in a dis patch from its correspondent, Walter Farr, "somewhere on the American Atlantic coast." The president and the prime minister sat on the sunlit deck of a warship, Farr wrote, "with sea gulls wheeling around. "Occasionally the drone of a big American flying boat patrol ling the skies was heard. The navy was taking no chances." Besides the planes droning overhead, the account reported, a constantly moving circle of de stroyers, patrol boats and other small naval vessels formed a pre cautionary cordon around the conference ship. BRAWTEO $21,729 (Continued from Page One) 242 Main street That office will act as a clearing house for both entrance and placement of students, he said. Class times will be arranged to suit the majority of accepted students. The new school will be under the direction of Clarke who was recently added to the high school staff. He will also organize an apprenticeship vocational train ing system in connection with KUHS. Credit for securing the new schools was given by both Clarke and Arnold Gralapp, new high school superintendent, to Paul Landry, Gene Hooker, Tracy Starr and Harry Panning, mem bers of the local defense train ing committee. " Instructors for the welding machine shop classes will be selected soon, according to Clarke. The defense committee is hoping to secure master crafts men in each line who have had worker training experience.

The Germans claimed that all crossings of the Dnieper river for several hundred miles south of Kiev were already in- nazi hands, but there was no detailed report of any crossing.

Settlement of Newberry Strike Seen in Making A settlement of the 68-day Culinary Alliance strike at the J. J. Newberry lunch counter appeared in making Friday after a conference between Secretary Q. C. Tatman of the alliance and L. J. Taylor, field representative for the company. According to Tatman, the par ley was carried on amicably and several differences Ironed out. He said he thought the strike would be settled in the near future. The strike was called on June 14 when the firm refused to sign new alliance contract calling for a wage boost for dishwash ers, cooks and waitresses. The Newberry difficulty was said to hinge on the status of a woman cook. Meanwhile a Teamsters' union picket line voted Wednesday on Newberry's for allegedly falling to use union truck drivers for freight hauling, was held in abeyance on Tatman's request. un another Newberry-union front, the Culinary Alliance an nounced they had aranted tier- mission for re-roof Ing a' part of me JvewDerry-occuDied bui d ne out of respect to the owner, "who nas always been a 100 per cent union supporter." ' F W LL BACK U PUNS CLAIM (Continued from Page One) lleve the president was acting in his official capacity. Thill said that oongress had enacted a special resolution to permit President Wilson to at tend the Versailles conference and read excerpts from a 1918 debate in the senate in which it was contended that governors of states would not act officially outside the boundaries of their states. "Another AEF" Rep. Bradley (RMich.) told the house that the national may have changed from "a policy of defense of America to offense of Europe and that means anoth er AEF. Rep. Shafer (R-Mlch.) said little later that the war depart ment's decision to build a ter minal at Jersey City meant that "the boys will soon be on their way. Action Expected - The feeling pervaded the cap! tal today that parallel Anglo- American action of a decisive na ture was in the offing to im plement the policies agreed upon in the historic sea conference be tween President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill. informed diplomatic sources here, like some in London, shared the opinion that much more than the joint' declaration of peace aims after destruction of "the nazi tyranny" could be ex pected from the momentous meeting, that the first manifesta tion could be looked for soon. and that there would be no mis taking it when it came. This was based on the belief that there were numerous Im portant decisions behind the gen eralized language of the joint statement issued yesterday. Only in the statement s preamble was mention made of unspecified measures being taken by Britain and the United States. The decisions, it was recog nized, would remain in the cate gory of military secrets, for Mr. Roosevelt has made plain on past occasions that he did not' care to provide information he thought Adolf Hitler would like to have, and that future defense strategy would be based on beating the other fellow to the punch. ' DeSDite 4h rule of secreev. some official- sources thought that the president might give the natiort further details of his con versations with Churchill per haps in a fireside chat, Such a broadcast, it was said, could be used effectively to announce the first significant step taken as a result of the meeting. Draft Extension Not to Blanket Service Report (Continued from Page One) three-year enlisted personnel for 18 months. 'There will be a certain group which will be sufficient ly trained and ready for re lease," Thomas said. "These should be placed in the reserves in order that new men may be trained.. . . The Utah senator said this group to be released would con- sist largely of men who had no special skills. He said it was likely that all technicians and men with specialized knowledge would te retained. In some cases. Thomas de clared, men vho are ordered to remain in service for an addi tional 18 months may be re- leasea Deiore tnat period is up it tne army commanders decide they are sufficiently trained and the president authorizes their release. The draft extension measure, approved finally by a senate vote of 37 to 19 yesterday, now awaits Mr. Roosevelt's assured signature. - Legislation to lower the max imum draft age from 35 to 28 also awaits signing and unless Mr. Roosevelt signs or vetoes it by next Monday, will become law without his signature. 31 Given Tickets For Not Having Drivers' Licenses State police officers conducted l routine craeckUD Wednesday from 4:30 to 7 D. m. near tha Lakeview junction on highway No. 66, and out of 568 can stopped, 31 tickets were handed ! out to drivers not possessing operator s licenses.

Captain A. A, Nlchoson, World war veteran and personnel director of the Texas company, Friday noon told members of the Klamath Falls Rotary club that "Ameri cans must rearm themselves spiritually and mentally" and move for closer cooperation be tween government, industry, la bor and the public it freedom is to be protected. We must reded lea te our selves to the institutions and the high principles we are pre paring to defend," he said. "We must be prepared to make sac rifices. Above all else there must be cooperation the ut most cooperation between gov ernment, Industry, labor and the public a united effort to protect America and its hard- won and dearly cherished free dom." The speaker said that Ameri can freedom can be retained only when the people under stand and exercise the privileges and obligations of democratic citizenship.

' : 'Any person finding himself in possession of an anti-German tract must hand it over immed iately to the nearest German military service. Violators will be punished by a penalty up to 15 years at forced labor.

COURTESY OP LOST RIVER DAIRY KLAMATH FALLS, OREfrON CALLS SEA PARLEY S EFFORT 'FLOP' (Continued from Page One) close to the foreign office de clared Roosevelt and Churchill had Indicated clearly their "de sires for omnipotence ' and that the reich was ready to shatter the "Anglo-Saxon dream of world empire" by force ot arms, Realization of the program enunciated by the two statesmen would mean "the end of freedom for all," these sources said. In Rome, fascist circles also adopted a contemptuous attitude, saying they did not see how the declaration would disturb the efforts of the axis powers. Though no reaction was avail able immediately from Moscow, the soviet radio broadcast a com plete text of the Roosevelt Churchill declaration and Rus sian circles in London indicated they were well pleased. Nether lands government circles In Lon don also displayed satisfaction, Mexico's reaction, swiftly voiced by her foreign minister, was one of complete approval Words ot approbation also came from government officials in Canada and New Zealand. In India, the question was raised whether what some call ed the "new charter of liberty" would be translated Into action as far as she is concerned. Bulgarian newspapers printed the full text with the observa tion that it contained some com mendable principles but, like President Wilson's famous 14 points, probably never would be put into effect. It will "find unanimous response the world over," the base national Zeltung declared. The Lausanne Tribune said the leaders "expect a strategic comeback as in 1918" since they formulated a program "which complete victory alone will per mit imposing on the axis." In Argentina, Buenos Aires newspapers applauded the de claration enthusiastically. Said El Mundo, It "should receive the warmest adherence from all men of good will.
