This newsnaper has received a postcard asking if that rumor is not false, the card being signed by "Native Sons." Inasmuch as the card is post marked Klamath Falls, we aren't at all sure it comes from service men, but we can assure the writers oi tne missive that there is nothing to the report Klamath will do every thing possible to give its own men a pleasant stay in the home bailiwick. ... In fact, a meeting of the community hospitality commit tee has been called for Monday ot next weeK to go iniu that very project It is true that the hospitality fund was hit pretty hard by the large number of convoys passing through here in late August and early September, but when the time comes to entertain our own kids, we'll find the cash. The editorial desk mail brings another message from a local woman, resident of the suburbs, who took very seri ously our recent appeal to local people to tidy up their properties. "I have arranged for a man to mow and rake our lot says the letter. "He is busy until the end of the week, how ever, the lot will be cleaned and if the signboards come down, I'll plant flowers, too." This woman then proceeds to express her severe dis approval of billboards. "Why do local concerns feel that by shoving their signs down our throats, as it were, by erecting them in residential districts, they will get our trade? . . . Why not a law, as in other states, removing all signs along highway rights-of-way, except in commer cial districts? . . . Surely, if some of the many people will express their opinions in the paper and to their dealers, the billboard curse can be ended." Enough said. Klamath county's assessed valuations, despite probably the heaviest timber cut in the county's history, are higher again this year. This testifies to the substantial property improvement program tnat nas oeen underway ana xne steady Droorress of the county community: v After a drop in 1936, assessed valuations in the county have risen-consistently. There has been no spectacular rise, but the gains have been gradual and steady. The figures from County Assessor Mack snowing tnis, ana tne recent announcement of figures disclosing substantial in creases in city and county school enrollment, are evidence enough that there is not stagnation in this community. - A good word is in order for the police department's constructive efforts to cope with traffic problems in periods of serious congestion. Rather than letting these problems develop and work themselves out as is usually the rule, the department has anticipated tnem nicely, as in the case of the rodeo last summer and the football game this week. Police Chief Frank Hamm, Officer Tom Judge, and all. others who have worked out this plan are to be congratulated. It is important of course, for the public to cooperate. Before the congestion periods, the police department an nounces its program in clear and simple language. Those who drive in accordance with these instructions will be helping themselves as well as others in keeping out of traffic tangles. . .. Modoc field is as beautiful a sight at night as you will find in any athletic grounds, anywhere. Too bad more passenger trains cannot be routed past the field when the games are on.

OBITUARY PEARL McCLENDON Pearl McClendon, a resident for the past 20 years, passed away at her residence in this city on Thursday morning, Sep tember 11. The deceased was aged 56 years when called. She is survived by a sister, Claudie Anderson of Tucson, Ariz., and a sister in Fort Worth, Tex. The remains rest at Ward's Klamath Funeral Home, 925 High street. Notice of the funeral arrange ments will be announced later. WASHINGTON. Sept. 13 Cof fe is to go no higher. An invisible ceiling for it, where it now stands, was tSovided in a secret meeting of the coffee board here a few days back. The Colombian delegate came into the meeting with a proposi tion which would have hiked it another notch October 1. He pro posed lowering the present quota, to enable the South American producers (particular ly Brazil) to grab another coffee increase atop the two they have already imposed. This suggesUon was met by Mr. Paul C. Daniels, the United States delegate, with a proposi tion which caused the Colombian delegate to withdraw, fast. Mr. Daniels said he had heard this government intended to form a coffee monopoly to do the na tion's buying if any further steps like that developed. Daniels knew whereof he spoke. It seems that Leon Hen derson of OPA became disturbed about the ever increasing price and went to Vice President Wal lace, chairman of the economic warfare committee. Wallace worked out the monopoly ar. rangement and plans to put it into effect at the slightest sign of further funny business. a a DRAGONS CHEATED The state department went aflutter at the news that the Em peror of Japan had taken over the army. To them it meant the black dragons of the army clique (war extremists) had been cheat ed of their possibility of continu ing the Far Eastern expansion. It convinced them the emperor's more moderate views were sure to prevail over the wildmen of the country. ooo SHIPS OVERDUE American naval authorities have been worried for some days about two more . transferred American ships long overdue. Announcement of the sinking of the American-operated Sessa, you will recall, was delayed from August 17, when she went down, until September 9, when a few of her survivors were picked up. It is the custom of maritime authorities to let out no word of ship's disappearance until Jong after all logical hope has' been abandoned, but these two are al ready unofficially counted as lost. 32 OPPOSED Mr. Roosevelt learned from his congressional leaders before his speech that an advance poll on amendment of neutrality had disclosed a possibility of only 32 opposition votes in the senate. No line could be obtained on the house.- SIDE GLANCES "Mac used to waste a lot of time arguing with house : wives till he thought up the idea of being hard of L. hearing." . SHAKE UP Having finished his OPM iob. the president's confidential ad viser. Judge Rosenman. is going through lists, getting names of army and navy officers who, it may be judged, have failed to cooperate with administration policy as expressed through OPM.

Youth Stationed in' Army at St. Louis HILDEBRAND Clifford Welch, who became a private in the army August 1, is now sta tioned indefinitely at Jefferson barracks, St. Louis, Mo. Welch enlisted in the air corps. to the cradle. Future investiga tions of senatorial elections ar likely to be conducted that way. Mr. Roosevelt took unpre cedented precautions to see that none of the senators and con gressmen let slip in advance the slightest hint of what he had to say to the nation. He called them all in before noon that day, read his speech paragraph by para graph and Invited discussion af ter each paragraph. But before they left he exacted a personal individual pledge from each to say nothing. For the rest of the day, the congressmen ducked around cor ners at the sight of news-men. 8. F.
