Bond Sales Lag WAR savings bond purchases in Klamath county have fallen behind the schedule necessary if this county is to make the $149,000 quota set for it in May. This quota is a part of an Oregon quota assigned in a national drive. Klamath is expected to do its part in keeping Ore gon in the forefront in defense bond purchases. Several factors have slowed defense bond purchases here, among them the 'Japanese project construction at Tulelake. This work caused a considerable dislocation in local industry and upset systematic buying through the payroll allotment plan. Many people who had been buying bonds in this manner severed their local employ ment to take work on the Japanese project, and that stopped their bond buying so far as the local quota was concerned. Unfortunately, indications of extravagance and waste in the building of the Tulelake project came generally to local attention and had a tendency to discourage bond buying by citizens not in any way connected with the construction project The fact that no official source has been willing to state the costs on the Tulelake project lias not helped the situation, but has added instead to a general belief that the costs are far too high. This news . paper reports these factors in the bond sale program and again asserts emphatically they should have no affect on the attitude of good citizens toward bond-buying. The first thing we have to do is to win this war, and bond buying is an essential part of that effort We must not be distracted from the main purpose. There is a feeling among war savings officials that while working people, generally, are carrying on their part of the bond purchase program through the payroll allotment plan, there is a need for stimulating sales again among professional and business people. It is suggested that everyone look up his bond-buying pledge made last February, and make certain he is living up to that obligation. OF WASHINGTON, May 21 (UP) Chairman David L Walsh, CD-Mass.) of the senate naval affairs committee, has been completely exonerated by the justice department of accusa tions printed in the New York Post that he frequented Brooklyn "house of degrada tion where nazi spies congre gated, Democratic Leader Al ben W. Barkley told the senate Wednesday. He said the entire incident was based on mistaken identi ty. He explained that the man who visited the house of ill re pute was a resident of New England but not of Massachu setts and no more resembled Walsh "than I look like Haile Selassie." He did not identify the visitor by name, , "We shall see that justice is done for those who have made this most despicable accusation against a member of this body," he promised. Walsh specifically was ac cused In the newspaper's dis patches of having visited re peatedly a house operated by a man named Gustav Hermann Beekman who was convicted of what Barkley described as an "offense too loathesome to men tion In the senate or any group of ladies and gentlemen." Lew Ay res Wears Army .Uniform FORT LEWIS, Wash., May 21 (U.R Private Lew Ayres, no longer a conscientious objector, Wednesday was wearing the uni form of the United States army and getting accustomed to his new status. Almost unnoticed, Ayres wait ed his turn in the Fort Lewis reception center lineups. Two months ago, describing himself as a "conscientious ob jector" Ayres was sent to the "Conchie camp at Wyeth, Ore., but a few days ago asked a change of status. He has asked for assignment to a non-combat ant medical unit "I really think I can do some good in the medical corps," said Ayres as he was going through army induction. FOLLOW THE LEADER SHREVEPOHT.

WASHINGTON, May 21 Some aiiiiuj-uit, uiiu uaiiianuiH vvu- fusion is evident here and there among the people over our policy toward Russia, and what will come out of it after the war. A number of very enthusiastic Americans, on one hand, seem to be accepting the delusion that Russia got into tins war to save democracy. And there are an equal number of people on the other hand who cringe in fear of communism rising in this country as a result of the victory we are going to win. Above all, in both groups, there are people who think the subject should not even be men tioned, either for fear of rocking the boat or offending Stalin. To make the situation appear even more complex, domestic commies are coming out of the holes they entered while Russia was a passing ally of Hitler in Poland, and are disporting them selves in their publications again, advising us which Americans are loyalr what we should do about this and that None of these notions has any basis in the plain and simple facts of the case, which are ap parently being forgotten. The realistic policy of this govern ment has long been adopted, is delivering the goods to Russia better than expected, and is gen erally approved. SIDE GLANCES VSeS.

HOW IT CAME ABOUT All you have to do to under stand its ramifications and its re strictions is to recall the facts of how it came about. If you keep inese tacts in mind there can be no confusion, fear or political agitation. Fact one, is that Russia entered this war because she was at tacked. by Hitler. Before that she had worked Hitler's wav, Russia is not a democracy.' Pri marily she is fighting for her ex stance. We are fighting for our exist ence, a different kind of exist ence, dui against the same enemy. ' War must run always to the death, and m that kind of situation, anyone who is not fool ish will get every kind of heln he can. Therefore, we have en tered upon a jomt venture which is, in effect a mutually satis factory partnership in war. It is not political. We have no treaties. We are merely work ing together for our own self- interests in a life and death strug gle. Now this does not mean we must marry Russia. It does not mean we must adopt her form of government now or later. If she had the form of government of the Fiji islands or Shangri-La, it would be the same. The administration seems to me to have kept these dis tinctions very carefully and clearly. Mr. Roosevelt has push ed the goods over to them, furn ished the credit, praised the great valor of the Russian army and completely avoided the confusing political angles. If all citizens of this country had followed his example, there would be no reason for attempt ing now to clarify the situation. Why the president freed Earl Browder, I do not know. I do not believe it "was to please Rus sia, because no diplomat here suggests Stalin's diplomatic rep resentatives ever concerned themselves with the Browder passport case. As a matter of fact Stalin's diplomats stay as far away as they can from the domestic com munist party. THERE LIES DANGER Unfortunately, the domestic commies do not conduct them selves with the same restraint. Oregon's latest bourbon treat! Their publications seem to want to decide strictly American is sues. If anyone says the Rus sians advanced only three miles instead of five, they are inclined to shout "fascist ' at him. Indeed, if allowed to run loose the way they are going, they will have us all believing before this war is over that they personally saved democracy, although all we are getting from them is critical advice. There lies our danger and there lies, the cause of the confusion, not in the gov ernments, and not in the policy. If you meet those of this Ilk In argument or in print, just re mind them that Russia initially made the war possible by her treaty with Hitler and her ac tions in Poland; that we tried to help Finland when she was at tacked by Russia; that neither political agitation nor false emotionalism will help either of us right now; that we both are in this matter for our own good reasons; that our governments seem to know it and are doing a darned good joint job of ac complishing victory without get- ting into sideline arguments. If we keep things on that basis, no one will be fooled now or later. Courthouse Records WEDNESDAY Complaints Filed Wyatt S. Peck versus H. J. McCurry, Jr. Suit to collect $94 damages and costs.

From Other Editors HE ALWAYS COMES BACK (Salem Cnpltal Journal) A contemporary remarks that the "outstanding surprise" of the Oregon primary election "was the shattering of tradition of In vincibility which had long ad hercd to Walter M. Pierce, vet eran congressman from eastern Oregon, even if ho pulls through the 'unbeatable' label Is torn from his banner." Since the octogenarian Walter Pierce arrived in Oregon ho has most of the time held or been a candidate for public office, ci ther county, state or federal. He lias been defeated many times but always came back for the same or some other office, gen erally successfully. The "un beatable" label never was on his banner for defeat only spurred him to new endeavor. Look at his record: Superintendent of schools. Umatilla county, 1886-90; county clerk, 1890-4, defeated for re election. Member of the state senate, 1903-7, defeated for re election, again senator from 1917-21, defeated for re-election, 1920. Democratic candidate for governor, 1918, defeated, again nomineo In 1922, elected govern or; again candidate in 1926, de feated. In 1932 elected to con gress and since biennially re elected and now renominated. In addition he was regent of the OAC from 1905-23. Pierce's success as a politician is due to the fact that he always has his ear to the ground and os cillates at every popular tremor. He has a flair for theatricals and is a consummate actor and not bothered by consistency nor han dicapped by principle and a champion of every emotional ism that is popular at the time.
