Who Gets the Tires
IT was sound judgment that led the Klamath rationing
I board to give full publicity to its allotments of tires
and tubes to eligible users.
The board hesitated momentarily on the publicity
question when the publication of the first list of names
brought a great many personal calls to board members,
who are busy with their private affairs along with those
of the rationine proirram. Then it was announced the
names of allottees will be published, and anyone having
any complaint to make should do it at the board head
. quarters at the chamber of commerce.
In fact, the rationing rules call for the latter pro
cedure. There are forms available at the headquarters
to be used in making complaints. Also, full copies of
all rules and regulations may be seen at the chamber
offices. It Is the place to go if one does not understand
fully the rationing program and what is being done
about it here.
The rationing board has been doing its best to fulfill
the purposes of the rationing program as they apply to
the particular problems of Klamath county. Of im
portance here are the tire needs of the lumber industry
and of agriculture. Both of these activities are highly
' mechanized and require a great deal of rubber. Both
, are of significance in the fighting and defense program
of the country. They, naturally, will get the lion's share
of tires that go to eligible users.
Most people, being deprived of new tires, would like
to know who is getting them and why. The board's pub
licity plan answers those questions. The public surveil
lance which accompanies the publicity is an automatic
policing device.
The Important Potato
(The Oregonian)
DOMESTIC demand for farm products is at 35 per cent
above what it was at the same time in 1941, accord
ing to the February price report of the department of
agriculture. This higher level of demand, coupled with
a decline in potato acreage attributed to hitherto low
prices at harvest time, has directed attention to that im
portant vegetable. The householder who is attentive to
uch things will have noticed that he has been getting
fewer and fewer potatoes for a dollar at the corner
grocery.
The department of agriculture, it is now told in a
dispatch from Washington, is offering inducements to
xarmers to plant not Jess than 80 per cent and up to 110
per cent of their allotted potato acreage. The induce
ment is a promise of price support at harvest time and
it is ottered to forestall possibility of a potato shortage.
If the Oregon potato grower could relv unon the
continuance of present prices through harvesting he
wouia not neea to worry about government price support
The department's monthly price report discloses that the
Oregon farmer who still has potatoes to sell is receiving
much above the average received by potato growers the
country over. Whereas the Oregon grower was getting
Doui ou cents a Dusnei last xaii, ne is getting an average
of $1.20, as of February 15. In the corresponding period,
a year ago, the Oregon farmer was receiving an average
of 55 cents a bushel. This contrast, aside from pledged
government price support, indicates a good year in 1942
zor ine uregon potato grower. And the consumer, it
may be supposed, will watch his productive reaction with
lutercsi. ii not anxiety, ine grower s present price is 15 Vz
cenia a Dusnei aDove tne national average, and the na
tional average stands within a fraction of a cent of parity,

with other lines and was re
moving a speeder from a tool
shed when the machine broke
into flames, according to army
guards who were patrolling
nearby.
The flames spread, destroy

U. S. Attorney
Reports Aliens
Imposed Upon
PORTLAND. March 9 (JP)-
U. S. Attorney Carl C. Donaueh
denounced persons who, he said
Saturday, are refusing to pay
legitimate accounts to enemy
aliens, faced with evacuation
from the west coast.
He said he had also received
reports of equipment dealers
attempting to induce aliens to
sign away title, even though
there was no default, on proper
ty purchased through condition
al sales contracts.
'Despite pending evacuation.
there is no reason why an alien
should sign away his goods."
Donaugh said.
He predicted an alien proper
ty custodian would bo named
soon.
CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
"Man" was the subject of the
Lesson-Sermon in all Churches
of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday
March 8.
The Golden Text was, "Have
we not all one father, hath not
one God created us," (Malachi
2:10.)
Among the citations which
comprised the Lesson-Sermon
was the following from the
Bible: "And God said. Let us
make man in our image, after
our likeness, and let them have
dominion over ;ho fish 'of the
sea, and over the fowl of the
air, and over the cattle, and over
an the earth, and over every
creeping thing that creepeth up
on the earth. So God created
man in his own image, in the
image of God created he him;
male and female created he
them" (Gen. 1:26, 27.)
The Lesson-Sermon also In
cluded the following correlative
passages from the Christian Sci
ence textbook, "Science and
Health with Key to the Scriptures"-
by Mary Baker Eddy:
"The Scriptures inform us that
man is made in the Image and
likeness of God . . . Man Is spir
itual and perfect; and because
he is spiritual and perfect, he
must be so understood in Chris
tian Science. Man is idea, the
Image, of Love; he is not phy
sique" (p. 475.)
DEMONSTRATION
RISING SUN. Ind.. OP) This
little Ohio river town has re
jected the suggestion that its
name be changed because it Is a
reminder of the Japanese flag.
And now tho townsfolk have
come forward with a suggestion
of their own. Their idea Is
that a big concentration camp be
laid out on a nearby hill for Jap
anese taken Into custody on the
east and west coasts.
We'll take care of them,"
said one resident, "in a way that
will show them that our rising
sun will never sink theirs will
never rise again."
From the Klamath Republican.
March 13. 1902
The county court this week
granted H. V. Gates the right
to construct a telephone and
telegraph line in Klamath coun
ty, said line to be commenced
May 1 and completed to Klam
ath Falls by October, 1902.
It Is to be hoped that cities of
Klamath county will not fail to
remember favorably the pro
posed county high school. This
is a matter, we understand, to
come up at the June election.
There is probably no enterprise
more important and beneficial
to tho rising generation In Klam
ath county than a county high
school.

Y(ASIllNGTON, March U Mr
Ni'lson has stepped Inad
vertently in some fly paper In
his first move forwurd toward
moro production. Ills boys hove
worked up and sent to tiiu gov
ernment printing office, "im of
ficial handbook of tho war pro
duction board" for tho offensive
on the factory front.
It Is a presentation of excellent
suggestions as to how eiu-h plant
can do its Job like MncArthur Is
doing his. The workers would
be encouraged to coin their nwn
slogans to paste on their moch-
mes (like "Go 'way, I'm busv
helping a guy In a flKht,") adver
tising their accomplishments by
blowing a whistle whenever 0
new unit rolls off the production
line, doubling up In autos com
ing to work.
This kind of "more production
drive" is needed, perilous more
than anything eUe right now.
Everyone Li euuer mid coopera
tive. But back in Iho booklet.
after generalized letters about
necessity from Roosevelt, Knox.
Siinson, et al, Is a controversial
Kernel llio whole drive is to
bo built around establishment of
Joint labor-management com
mittees for each plant.
How that sounds Innocent
enough until you consider (as all
plane managers invited to Join,
are) what this Joint management
committee is to handle. The
book tells you nine things:
Care of tools, prevent liw
breakdowns, curtailing Occi
dents, good lighting, mainte
nance mid repair, re-adapting
machines, cutting waste, break-
I ing production bottlenecks, us-
I ing every machine to the fullest.
1 "These ore Just suggestions."
I the booklet says. "You will prob
ably have to adapt them to your
own plant," (leaving a wide door
open.)
But those who will do the
adapting wonder Justly or un
justlyhow much of their busi
ness management will be exclu
sively theirs, free of labor con
sultation, except tho problem of
making enough money to pay
taxes, wages and profits.
...
MURRAY PLAN
This hesitancy might not lim
it managerial enthusiasm for the
plan, had not all managers been
publicly warned by tho last CIO
convention that CIO would fight
unremittingly this year for la
bor-management councils for
each major basic and vital de-
fenso Industry."
Tho Phil Murray plan of de
fense, which was presented to
the president, called for estab
lishment of Industry councils to
do about tho same thing as these
new plant committees. It says
"Each council shall be
charged with the responsibility
of expediting the defense pro
gram and assuring the adequate
production of domestic or non-
military.goods ..."
That plan was discarded bv
the government, but tho shell of
it seems Involved In the "more
production drive." There arc
two notable differences. The
Joint labor-management com
mittees will now be for each
plant, Instead of each industry,
and no government representa
tive will' sit on them.
The question whether the
"moro production drive" could
not have been organized on a
less controversial basis therefore
naturally Is arising and at n
bad time. The Job might have
been done by separate labor and
management committees, or by a
labor committee alone.
Managers are not likely to
speak out their suspicions and
risk the wrath of the govern
ment, but their caution is like
ly to lead the vital program into
all manner of rlelavs.
