Our Road Projects HIGHWAY committeemen of the Klamath county cham ber of commerce are engaged in an effort to direct attention of the state highway commission to the need for continued improvements on The Dalles-Cahrornia highway north and the Willamette highway. One would not suppose any arguments would be needed to convince anyone of the importance of tha high way route in the defense program, but its status in that connection may need some clarification for the benefit of the highway authorities in Oregon. In its present inclination to give major play to the Pacific highway, the state commission should not neglect the important superior route that has been developed via Klamath Falls, and there is a need for construction of the fill across the marsh just north of Algoma. These are two projects which should be pressed forward in the construction season now opening. Klamath people will not ask for anything unreason able in this war period. The things they do ask for in the way of public construction will fit into the defense program. On those things, they have the moral privilege of making their wishes known and of directing official attention to the need for and advantage of various pro jects. The road projects being urged are of that nature. Last Call ANY citizen who has been in the county for the last 30 days, and has not registered before this, deserves scant consideration. It would serve him right to have the registration deadline called a day ahead of time and leave him out in the cold. But for the sake of representative voting at the pri mary election, we here call attention for the last time to the Importance of registering by the end of the busi ness day Tuesday. ... If you have not voted in the last two elections, If you have moved since you last registered, If you want to change party, or u you are a new voier, you snouiu regis ter before the deadline. The books will be closed then, and there Is no swear ing mat the polls In Oregon. It Is good news that plans are going ahead for the an nual meeting of the Order of the Antelope, war or no war. A little relaxation and relief from the pressure of the times will do the Antelopers a lot of good. Incidentally, seeing the country on that trip should make them love their country more than ever. A contemporary of ours calls the proposed Jap camp near Tulelake an "interment camp" rather than intern ment camp. You don't suppose the wish could be father of the error, do you? 624,983,000 Bushel Winter Wheat Crop Indicated By April 1 Crop Conditions WASHINGTON, April IS VP) The agriculture department re ports that a winter wheat pro duction of 624,983,000 bushels was indicated by April 1 crop conditions, compared with 671, 393,000 bushels produced last year and a 10-year average of 569,417,000 bushels. A forecast of 630,913,000 bushels was made by the depart ment last December on the ba sis of the seeded area of 39,318,- 000 acres and a yield of 16.0 bushels to the seeded acre Indi cated then by condition and weather factors. The seeded area for this year's crop was 14 per cent less than that seeded the previous year, in line with the reduced 1942 wheat acreage allotments of the farm program, and 18 per cent below the 10 year average. The preliminary estimate of the area remaining for harvest, the department said, indicated an abandonment of 6.4 per cent of the seeded acreage, compared with an abandonment of 13.4 per cent the previous year, and a 10-year average abandonment of 19.2 per cent. The indicated yield was re ported as 16.1 bushels to the seeded acre, compared with 14.7 bushels a year ago and 11.8 bushels averaged in the 10 years. The indicated acre yield and Indicated total production of winter wheat in important pro ducing states were reported by the agriculture department as: Nebraska 17.0 bushels an acre and total production 49,810,000 bushels; Kansas 15.5 and 166, 036,000; Oklahoma 13.0 and 55, 688,000; Texas 10.5 and 37,842, 000; Montana 20.0 and 26,200, 000; Idaho 25.0 and 14,750,000; Colorado 16.0 and 18,592,000; Washington 26. and 39,312,000; Oregon 22.0 and 13,618,000; Cal ifornia 14.5 and 10,310,000.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE "Are Sin, Disease, and Death Real?" was the subject of the Lesson-Sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, April 12. The Golden Text was, "The prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have com mitted sins, they shall be for given him" (James 5:15.) Among the citations which comprised the Lesson-Sermon was the following f-yca. the Bi ble: "We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair. While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not teen: for the things which are seen are tem poral; but the things which are not seen are eternal" (II Cor. 4: 8, 18.) 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: "The evidence of the physical senses often reverses the real Science of being, and so creates a reign of discord assigning seeming powers to sin, sickness, and death; but the great facts of Life, rightly understood, de feat this triad of errors, contra dict their false witnesses, and reveal the kingdom of heaven the actual reign of harmony on earth" (p. 122.)

S . , " 1 4 ERVOUS FIVE DIE IN SAVAGE, Minn., April 13 (u.PJ Five persons were killed and 30 injured Saturday when a speed ing Omaha railroad limited crashed into another passenger train which had stopped after hitting an automobile at a cross ing. The night limited, en route from Omaha to Minneapolis, rammed into the standing train seconds after it rounded a curve outside this village, 20 miles south of Minneapolis. The dead were: E. H. Ayers, St. Paul. Oscar Schneider, 45, Worthing ton, Minn. George Ogren, Minneapolis, brakeman on the second train. H. L. Kleppe, Clearbrook, Minn. Mrs. Irving Lea, 32, Sioux City, Iowa. The train collision was caused by a grade crossing accident four blocks west of the Chicago, St. Paul, Mineapolis and Omaha railroad station. The first train, a local, also en route to Minne apolis from Omaha, struck an automobile driven by Donald Johnson, 18, a newspaper car rier, who received a broken arm and leg and head injuries. While the automobile was be ing moved from the tracks, the flyer came around a curve and crashed into the standing train. Most of those killed and seriously injured were in the second car of the limited, which was shat tered. The rear car of the stand ing train was a milk car and was unoccupied. BACK TO NORMAL NOW KANSAS CITY, (P) Patrol man Art Bennett and Joe Car boneau Just sat there and watch ed the cars creep by some one put up a sign: Speed Trap Ahead.

Shotguns Will Replace State Guard Unit Rifles WASHINGTON, April 13 (UP) State guard units and army mili tary police will be issued shot guns to replace rifles, which will be recalled for "troops of the united nations," the war depart ment announced Saturday. All available Sprlncfields will be repossessed In a drive to make available large numbers of this type of smal larm. With the announcement to night, it also was revealed that "every American soldier en titled to carry one" has been equipped with the new Garand rifle. Shotguns will "fully meet" all arms requirements of domestic guard organizations .while the long-range rifles now In their possession are "ideally suited to meet an urgent need of fighting men of the united nations," the department said.

April 13 Dally localized successes of the Russians during the wlntor may have blinded us to the real ity of their critical spring condi tion. The unwelcome truth Is thoy have not captured much that the Germans tried desperately to hold. An assessment of the winter fighting, nnw ncnrlng an end, shows they saved Moscow and won Galinin, Rostov and the Valdai hills, but they were not able fully to relieve Leningrad. While they have frequently been reported marching into the outskirts of Khnrknv, they hnve not won tho city. They thought they had 150,000 nnzls trapped at Mozhaisk and 100,000 more at Staraya Russa, but they claimed no such captures In the end. It would be well for us to face tho fact that, at tho end of an advantageous period for Russian fighting, most ot the key posi tions aro still In nazl hands. The reds havo regained only about 15 per cent of the territory they had lost. a a a IN GERMAN HANDS To start off the spring, about 40 per cont of Hussion Industry is In German hands. Our ship ments to their fighting front have been substantial, but can not replace this loss. Strangely, their plane produc tion, Is up beyond a year ago, which is a very encouraging fac tor, though all other production is down. The nazls, however, are not In such a good productive position as you would surmise from their vast industrial seizures In France, tho lowlands and south eastern Europe. Hitler passed his peak in both manpower and materials a year ago. German plane production has not increased in the past 12 months. (Incidentally our pro duction is yet nowhere near its peak, In fact, is just beginning to rise.) Greatest Russian victory is one which could not be estim ated In communiques the woar and tear on nazl equipment from a year of fighting. With their localized winter onslaughts, tho reds havo cap tured substantial quantities of tanks and trucks. At Rostov where the nazis got out fast, much food and equipment was obtained. But the equipment they havo been able to capture would make a small pllo besido the In estimable amount tho nazis have lost through depreciation. You cannot run tanks, guns and trucks around for a year on Rus sian roads under hard usage without expecting about 100 per cent replacement. a MAY NOT FOLD Adding up these facts will lead you to an expectation that the reds may be kicked around a lot this spring and summer. They should be able to survive. They may not fold. The fight should be long, slow and hard. But Hitler stands an excellent chance to hammer back across Rostov into the Cau casus oil fields and cut off the Russian oil supply, which would be a calamity. It Russia folds this year, or her army la chased back Into the Urals, the European war Is by no means over. England should be able to survive inva sion with her existing armament, even without the aid of contin ued Russian opposition. a a a MALTA DANGER POINT Worse symptoms for us can be detected in the concentration of Hitler's energies against Malta and In Libya.

Riley showed that the spend ing of billions of dollars by the government In California "lifted the burden of unemployment re lief from the state's shoulders, wiped out an $82,000,000 cash deficiency ond stnrted April with moro than $3,000,000 on hand." Less than two years ago, tha general fund had a record cash deficiency of moro than $82,000. 000.
