Emphasis On Fire Problem CIVILIAN defense emphasis in Klamath county has been placed on fire prevention and fire fighting, with definite justification because of danger to the big pine lumber industry in this area. Danger exists in every fire season. In the war period it is heightened, and in the war period it becomes even more important to protect the pine forests and the big mills that are turning out manufactured material for de fense uses. A number of constructive things have already been done to make the public conscious of the danger that exists, and to inform people what they can do to help. As the fire season approaches, this effort will take on the aspects of a campaign. The public attitude already is encouraging. The ac tion of the Sportsmen s association, expressing willing' ness to give up hunting and fishing if that becomes neces sary to the safety of the forest resources, is an example of how people feel on this subject. In no year has fire prevention been so important as it is in 1942, and in no year have there been greater po tential dangers as the fire season approached. We who live in an important lumbering country must prepare ourselves to cooperate m every possible way in the arm- fire program this year. Coordination Accomplished AN important development is underway in the school systems of this community which has as its objective the close coordination of the elementary and high school programs. After years of discussion of the need for such an effort, the plan has been gradually worked out and a vital forward step is being taken in the current vear. with one superintendent taking charge of the entire sys tem lor the first time. To get the plan underway, the school boards of the elementary district, No. 1, and of the high school district. No. 2, began close cooperation. They have been meeting together to work out those phases that apply to the coordination program, until now what at one time seemed to be a desirable but almost unattainable development is now wen along toward realization. It has taken leadership, cooperative spirit and a will to work for the general public welfare to bring all of mis aooui, mere nave Deen many personal and tech nical proDiems involved, and not all have been solved as yet The situation is now in the status of nractfenl cooperation, with ' a number of technical details still to be handled. It is possible the completion of the effort win require action by the legislature at the next session. People of the COmmunitv who are inrprpsfoil in ti welfare of the schools may take satisfaction in what has oeen accomplished. To the school boards which have undertaken the task, and those citizens who have advised ana neipea, should go the community s appreciation. Girl Scout Birthday . lintL SCOUTS have just observed Birthday week. Girl w Scouting was brought to this country from England by Mrs. Juliette Gordon Low. The organization is non-sectarian, non-political and non-profit-making. What Girl Scouting means may be summed up in a statement made 07 xresiaeni Koosevelt, as follows. "Young neoDle who learning, to think for themselves, to be self-reliant, re- Knutvof ill onfmA i i a.c-; ., it. u "c iioiHtipiuiui in meir own community, are the best assurance of the continuance of democracy that " o tan uave. WASHINGTON, March 18 The key to the whole World war situation is on the Russian front. It will be turned one way or the other within 60 to 90 days. It Hitler's last desperate ef fort this spring fails to destroy the red army and reach oil, rea sonably prompt counter action by the united nations could force him to his knees. Japan could not long continue the war without the distracting assist ance of her Berlin ally. But if the reds are eliminated from this war as a formidable force this spring, Japan and Ger many will rule the rich resourc es of two continents. It will be the world against the U. S. and Britain. A devastating conflict of many years' duration would be the least of the live possi- bllities. This realistic interpretation Is apparently moving current pol icy of our government. Aid to Russia has recently been rushed through both oceans. A sign that the nazis know the Importance of this aid was given when Hit ler moved the Tirpitz up the Norwegian coast. REDS SEEK JUMP The reds are supposed to be mustering a secret army of a million and a half men (91 di visions) to throw in upon the nazis massing for a spring drive on the South Ukrainian front The idea is to get the jump on me uermans, throw them off balance, before they can get their cwn offensive going. The tale, however, seems to be just a little too well known. It has been seeping out of Stock holm, Bern. Vichy and even Londor. No doubt the reds have organized something along this line. Question is whether it Is as strong as these sources have represented. An ideal spot for such an at tack exists, south of Kharkov. The reds have outflanked the Germans north of the city and If they can drive a salient in south of it, they can squeeze the nazis out. o o CASPIAN FIRST GOAL The nazis have been concen trating their own forces in the Ukraine for some weeks, and placing Italian, Hungarian and Rumanian troops in the Balkans (for police duty to relieve their own men for the front?). I heir natural first objective is the Caspian sea, to cut the mouth of the Volga, to seize Baku, and thus throttle the Rus sian source of oil. Encouraging claims of ereat Rv 'an victories you have been reading through the winter, re late to the northern front. The reds have driven the Germans back an average of only 40 miles in the south. Apparently they used their available reinforce ments wholly in the north. Con sequently what they had In the south was insufficient to follow through their initial successes at Rostov and in the Crimea. The weather should allow the nazis to start their southern of fensive In about a month, if the real do not disrupt their organ ization first. The mushy Deriod of thaw ordinarily does not last there beyond April 15. To Klamath Girl Srntit day congratulations. It is a great work.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE "Substance" was the subject of the lesson - sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, on aunaay, March 15. I he Golden Text was, "Faith is the substance of thlnus houcd lor, ine evidence of things not seen" (Heb. 11:1). Among the citations which comprised the lesson -sermon was the following from the Bible: "Through faith we under stand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which aro seen were not made of things which do ap pear" (Heb. 11:3). The lesson-sermon also In cluded the following correlative passages from the Christian Sci ence textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scrip tures" by Mary Baker Eddy: "Substance is that which Is eter nal and incapable of discord and decay. Truth, Life, and Love are substance, as the Scriptures use this word in Hebrews: 'The sub stance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Spirit, the synonym of Mind, Soul, or God, is the only real substance" (p. 468). GUESSWORK No one here or elsewhere knows what the reds have on their front. They do not allow outside military observers to ac company their troops. Conse quently any effort to gauge their chances in this fateful spring is largely guesswork. They are certainly better off in many respects than when fac ing the initial onslaught last fall. They have destroyed one factor conclusively the idea that the nazl army is "invincible." They have lost a lot of men, probably several times what the Germans have lost. But still they have greater manpower today than the Ger mans. Their factories In the Urals are increasing production. They are getting equipment. consequently, the prevailing authoritative impression is their army is at least likely to survive destruction. It may have to give ground, but It should not be annihilated. Of course, if the rumored at tack south of Kharkov is suc cessful, if they can edge ud to the Crimean peninsula and cut it off, if Dnepropetrovsk Is re captured and a blow straight south to the Black sea develops, ineir visible chances will im prove Immeasurably. Their morale-building victories in the north have relieved Leningrad and Moscow, but the supposition here is that Hitler will not strike again along that line to capture twoempty cities. All eyes here are on the south of Russia and will remain fixed there.

THE SMOKE ORDINANCE KLAMATH FALLS, Ore., (To the Editor) It nov appears that thu anti smoka crusaders have won out and that tho city coun cil is about to puss tho smoko and soot ordinance. Much hus been said about tho smoke and soot problem but it has been all one sided. In all fuirness, I be lieve somcthinu should bo sulci for tho other side or In behalf of tho parties at whom this ordi nance is directed. First, however, I wish to niuko it clear thut tho views expressed are :ntirely my own. In my opinion, tho council isn't using very good Judgment in passing this ordinance. Why pass ordinances or laws that can not bo enforced? Most every one around hero knows that tho "pow. s that bo" in the city hull have their guns trained at the city henti. g plant and the Big Lukes lumber plant. Seeming ly. Kwauno Hox comnanv's mill and power plant are Just out of ranc-. People have been making a noise tibout smoke and mission smoke ordinances for more than ouu yeurs and this long cam puign BKuinst the nuisance has hud little effect. The first smoke ordinance passed in England during tho reign of Edward the first, made burning of "sea coal'' which produced smoke, a capital of tense punishublo by deulh. A ruther severe penalty. However, the ordinance being enacted here provides a stiff enough penalty tor its violation as to detent its purpose, before un ordinance like this is pasted, wouldn't it be fur belter and moro democratic to have an intelligent survey made by a committee or some one who understands fuel, com bustion and industrial furnncc problems to find out what the plum owners lire up against and get as clear a picture as possible of the whole problem? Just what arc cinders, soot and smoke? Substantially, it is fuel which has been arrested In vari ous stages of incomplete com bustion by lack of oxygen and temperature. What are the conditions that cause smoke, soot and cinders? LwCk of air, lack of room in furnace, furnace temperature too low, heavy overloads, fluctuat ing loads, varying quality and condition of fuel and many oth crs. Pine, in the form of sawdust. shavings and hog fuel as it comes from the sawmill, planer and box factory, Is one of the most difficult of fuels with which to achieve smokeless com bustion, especially when used in connection with fluctuating load of a lumber and box manufac turing plant. Most boiler plants are overloaded and boilers arc expensive to buy and as long as they can pull the load with the boilers they have I can't see how anyone should expect them to make heavy Investments In something they can get along without. It will cost a considerable amount of money In labor and equipment which is getting in creasingly difficult to obtain, to help the soot and smoke prob lem. Why pass an ordinance like that at this time? After all, the Big Lakes plant and also the heating plant have been there a good number of years and a few years more Is not going to make much difference. Tho prevailing winds are from the north and northwest so most of the dirt and soot from these plants is carried out over Lake Ewauna We are In a very serious war and it 'ems to me we all have enough fight and worry on our hands now to lick Hitler and the Japs. Judging from the write ups In the Evening Herald and also the wording of the ordi nance, plants burning sawdust nnd hog fuel are the only ones that discharge soot cinders and smoke. What about the railroad that runs through the center of town und also tho SI round house? At times when they uru "slcumliig up cold unglues in tho iviiiidhuimo, black smoke rolls out of tho stucks so thick und black as to obscure both tha roundhouse und viaduct. All oi us who burn carbonaceous fuel such as wood, coal und oil con tribute to the smoko and soot nulsnnce und Mr. Hlckbell, who heads the smoko und soot com mittee is Just us guilty as anyone ns he sells oil burning heaters nnd they also produco plenty of smoke and snot under sumo con ditions, Ask anyone who has walked past soma house Just as tho occupants tossed Into their stovo a handful ot the so-culled soot remover or ask some house wife who hus Just got her wtun on tho lino whon her neighbor docs tho soot purging net. How over, I seo they have taken care of this by exempting (section 8) cooking and heating apparatus and for appliances srrvlnit or used by two families or less. Section 6 of the ordinance nro vldes that tho police department, building Inspector, tiro chief und city engineer shall bo the smoko and snot Inspectors. Just what standard of comparison ure they to go by when they declare a stack or chimney Is dlschars Ing excess soot or smoke? In combustion engineering, we have the Klnge limiim charts which ure fur from satisfactory und leaves plenty of room for ar gument. No, tha soot, cinder unci smoke problem is not so simple Unit merely pusslng un ordinance Is going ' solve It. If that was the case, probably it would be well to puss another to tuko care of the city Jnll problem. I have resicieu in. ruumtilh Kalis since I iuju nnd It seems that about every year some civic body, grand Jtiy, some organisation or committee have paraded on a tour of Inspection through the city Jail and In their reports have roundly condemned It ns being filthy nod dirty nnd not fit for people to be In. After the last inspection an estimate was given as to the cost of cleaning up this problem and If I remem ber right It was $10,000. Well, If It would cost that much It really must be In a bad condition. Well I can't say. as I have never been In the base ment of the city hall either look ing in or looking out. In considering this soot ordi nance, It may be well to keep In mind that the lumber Industry with their largo payroll nnd heavy taxes, ore of fur greater vnlue to the city of Klnmnlh Falls than the city is to the lum ber industry I bc-Ilevo Mr. Rick blel will admit that tho lumber Industry's payroll has helped considerable to mnke it possible for Ricky's to expand Into their present modern place of business. It seems as though the soot and smoko problem will remain like the weather problem and I might add, the city jnll and cock roach problem. Everybody talks about It, but not much Is done Capitol Dome Gets War Paint .11 J ...'uT"''" . jtw him.

(To the Editor) This morning, I am writing to my congressmen perhaps I can help tho office of Civilian Defense thev mov have missed a few bets. Last night, Mr. Fulton Lewis Jr., gave a report on this offico as it isn't the first time It has been In the news, but It does get bet ter and better. Yesterday, he reported that there ore several hundred In this office, to name a few, Coordinator of Badmin ton, Coordinator of Bowling, Bil liards, etc.. In the. B's "Code" bull, marbles, ad Infinitum an nauseam. Perhaps I took the wrong mathematics, but the wny nguro tho hoys at the front would appreciate this much more if the coordinators would play their mumbclty peg, mar bles, etc., at home and tho money they are now using could he made into real damage in tho form of a bomber.- Perhaps I am TRAGEDY AVERTED KLAMATH FALLS.

The one to whom gratitude and cred it should be expressed Is un known and this Is sent In hopes It will ratrh Ills attention. I hncl taken our flvo year old daughter to a neighborhood shop for our haircuts and fin ishing ahend of her started to cross the street to make a pur chase. Daughter camo out and started to follow me. I called to her to stay where she was. She did not heed and I glanced back to see her start to run ncross the hlghwny towards me. I screnmed at her to stop ns a car was coming nnd com ing fust. She kept coming and with but a very few feet to spare thut enr come to an In stant stop because of your skill ful driving, the perfect condi tion of your car and your quick thinking. In my excited reac tion, I did not thank you and you were gone when I would hovo done so. A groteful fomlly does thank you and everyone should know that there nro these fast but SAFE drivers like you on the road as well as the kind we more frequently spenk about who have made so mnny sad dened homes.
