City Fire Policy
THE city council Monday night initiated the long-talked-about
ordinance which prohibits the city fire equip
ment from going outside the city limits.
It is highly important that the policy embodied in
(ltd nrinanra he thnrnllcrhlv lindprstnnH hv thf trpTlPrftl
public BEFORE any incidents arise in which the fire de
partment is asked to make an outside run.

out proper protection. Fire insurance rates are predicated
on the adequacy of the fire fighting equipment, and the
city is not keeping faith if it does not maintain the de
partment at its established strength.
The reasonableness of the policy is not likely to be
questioned even in an emergency if everybody under
stands it ahead of time. That is why it is wise to place
it in an ordinance.
Meanwhile, there are reports of some progress in the
suburbs toward some form of fire protection. It is to be
hoped that any dissension over methods may be ironed
out. The suburbs are an important part of this commun
ity and we will all feel better when steps are taken' to
protect the homes and business buildings there against
fire. The danger with which the present situation is
fraught is unpleasant to contemplate. It calls for action.

CITY LOTS
KLAMATH FALLS, Ore, (To
the Editor) I would appreciate
it very much if you would please
print this and give me this op
portunity to explain what might
be a misunderstanding.
During the Junior chamber of
commerce roundtable broadcast
on Thursday eight, I made the
tatement thai the City of Klam
ath Falls had numerous lots for
sale, title to which can be furn
ished and which can be purchas
ed from the city for ten per cent
down and a small payment per
month With intrr at i nor
cent on the unpaid balance. I
stated more in Jest than other
wise that I didn't think that one
could find a better deal in the
city of Klamath Falls.
I neglected to state that these
same lots on the same terms can
be purchased through any li
censed realtor in the city, and
that the realtor will show these
Jot, arrange the necessary
papers and make the offer for a
ciieni.
There cannot be too much
Publicity eiven thl tmM it
is the desire both of the realtors
ana the city to dispose of this
property 10 private owners and
return same to the tax rolls of
the city.

WASHINGTON', Dec. 1 The

' .1 iwiivu MIC tX UIJi
amendment for thp lirpncinc nf
business on the ground it would
impose a Hitleresque govern
ment control. It was defeated so
loudly bv voice, the leader HiH
not seek a roll call confirmation
But no one. in the debate, said
anything about the federal li
censing of 250.000 to 300000
businesses starting today with
out any recent authority of congress.
Regulation W. it is callpd. As
imposed by the federal reserve
board, it provides that any firm
in this country selling on the in.
stallment plan or making loans,
must register and receive a blan
ket license. No certificates are
to be issued, but if any firm vio
lates the rules of the board, it
will be notified its license has
been revoked. It will be out of
the installment business, if it
officers do not go to jail and
pay a fine for their waywardness
from official regulation.
The legal authority fnr thl.
federal licensing is an executive
oraer issued by Mr. Roosevelt
last August 9. The relatively re
mote legal spot where his at
torney general discovered a le
gal peg upon which to hand such
a regulation is "the trading with
the enemy act," passed 24 years
ago by congress for other pur
poses of another war (Oct. 6,
1917;.
Some question will no doubt
arise as to whether vou can nut
a man in jail by executive order,
wnnout specific authority of con
gress. Regulation W will nn
qoudi get into me courts. But
meanwhile all automobile fur.
niture, refrigerators, radio, jewel
ry ana what-not concerns sell
ing anything on the installment
plan (excepting real estate and
houses) will feel the weight of
executive decree. At the top of
the list will be department stores,
finance companies and auto deal
ers. The 15,000 banks of the!
country, making installment
loans, will also be affected.
Purpose of the licensing is to
give the government control of
small credit in order to cut down
consumption of consumers goods.
The defense regime is alrpaHv
working that way in making al
locations of raw materials, and.
of course no one objects to that
as the authority of fresh law is !
behind it. But this may be just'
the beginning of the history of
"regulation W."
Ing the senate would correct
these later.
"PRICE CONTROL"
Phoniest of all defense-era leg
islation is the one passed by the
house, still laughingly called a
"price control bill." It fooled no
one. least of all the nolitical nrn.
sure groups which sponsored it
(the cotton bloc and the infla
tionists). They readily confessed
it would not accomplish its only
purpose and stop inflation.
Such a legal hodge-podge
would never have passed the
house, however, if two peculiar
background circumstances had
not arisen. One was the political
personality of Leon Henderson, I
price control man for Mr. Roose-1
veit, who expects to head the
new setup in one way or another.
The real fight against a good bill,
was made on him, and largely in
the cloakrooms.
No o n e has proved exactly
how radical Mr. Henderson is at
present, but a large majority in
Congress is suspicious about giv
ing him control of the nation's
business. Long in circulation
have been the whisnprs that h
was at least once a fellow travel
er. Old also are the stories that
his division is filled with assist
ants whose arm-in-arm fellow
ship with left wing ideals is more
evident. Whatever degree of
truth lies in these congressional
murmurings, Mr. Roose vclt's
price control effort was lost in
the house primarily because he
did not offer someone with an
economic reputation like Baruch
to ieaa it.
This situation inspired the sec
ond circumstance: In order to
get any bill through on the sub
ject, the administration had to
accept foolish or divergent op
position amendments, openly say-
There is no reason to exnect'
much from the senate, unless j
those citizens who want to avoid
the national destruction of infla
tion (Mr. Roosevelt said it would
ruin the defense program) bring
more pressure than was evident
in the house. Inflationist Senator
Elmer Thomas, for instance, is
talking about an amendment
which would brlns 30 tn 4n mnl
cotton. The republicans are still
split. Although prices and the
cost of living to the a versus man
are rising every day, there is toi
oe no nurry. The leadsrs ay
ins Din is not to come to the floor
until after Jnmtnrv 1 Ant
senators distrust Henderson'
economic tendencies as much, as
does the house. ..V
