Outside Regulations
THIS week's dangerous fire at a suburban petroleum dis
tribution center focuses attention again on the ques
tion of regulation and fire protection outside the cor
porate limit of cities.
Fire Chief Keith Ambrose, renortinsr' the incident to
the city council, pointed out in effect that the city has
no control over regulations observed outside its limits and
therefore should not be expected to afford fire protection
in outside areas, .
It becomes increasingly plain that additional controls
must be enforced in congested areas which are growing
up on the fringes of American- cities. This is a matter
fur state legislation and state legislatures cannot permit
it to go on without definite action to meet the growing
problem. -. - " '
We have here at this time another situation that points
to the same question. Employes and employers in restau
rants and other food-handling establishments are asked
to set up a program of medical examinations for food
handlers in the city. Yet there are a number of food
handling establishments just outside the city limits where
such regujations would not be required, and where public
. protection from disease is just as important as it is within
the corporate limits.
And so it goes.. The extension of the regulations of
the nearest incorporated . city to cover certain activities
and operations outside the city seems a possible solution
that would be fair to all concerned. At any rate, the best
, heads, both inside and outside the cities,: should get to
gether on these problems and constructive legislation
should be worked out in the public interest.
Can They Take It?
"THE world is watching for evidences' of the effects of
I repeated bombings on the German people. .
Bill Shirer, in his "Berlin Diary," told how a few
British planes over Germany profoundly affected people
there who had been promised that Germany would, always
be protected from bombings. Shirer told of his hopes,
while in Berlin, that the British would keep on coming,
night after night, even with just a few planes.
Now they are coming, not with just a few planes, with
hundreds of them. They are staging an aerial blitz which
far outranks the prolonged bombings of Britain by the
Nazis. ' , -
The Germans, who are great winners, are a different
people when the worm turns against them. It is not be
lieved they can take it as the
blitz. The aerial offensive of

LET'S BOY BONDS
KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. (To
the Editor) For some time past
1 have been working on the Jap
anese refuge at Tulelake. At a
time when we are being constant
ly told to save iron, they put as
high as Z27 I inch by 41 inch
bolts and two washers in the
rafters of the buildings. These
bolts were not necessary. Sever
al miles of 12 inch iron pipe was
used where wooden pipe would
have done as good. Galvanized
iron sinks and drain boards in
the mess houses. Most of our
logging camps get along O. K.
with wooden ones. Large refrig
erators, and linoleum on the
floors. I heard a lot of men
working there of whom I was
one say they would be damned
if they were going to buy any
more bonds when the money
would be used as it was at the
refuge (I want to say that I do
'not believe that the contractors
were to blame for Iron being
used as it was; the plans were
drawn by an army architect, the
contractors had competent super
intendents, and foremen, and if
the men didn't work they got
fired.) Well we were wrong, 1
will tell you why.
I have just come back from a
trip to Aberdeen, Washington,
to see my son who is stationed
there, and who will probably be
shipped away soon. I went the
coast route, the vital spots . are
all guarded. It rained on us all
the way up, and we were stop
ped many times by soldiers, and
our car examined. It was a cold
nasty rain, but not one soldier
that stopped us was anything but
courteous and gentlemanly. If
those boys can take it on the
chin and smile, and they are,
then it is not going to hurt me
or anyone else to buy bonds.
Another thing when one gets
out and sees what a grand coun
try we have, realize its size, and
the things we have to be thank
ful for, it makes our own per
sonal troubles seem petty and
small, and a little ashamed of
ourselves, so it is up to us who
can't fight in, the front lines to
do all we can to support our boys
who are, the biggest help we can
give them is buy bonds NOW.
-Another bet we are overlook
ing is Ma. She is the one tijat
has the babies, walks the floor
with them at night, and gives
them Castoria or Paregoric when
they have the stomach ache, rubs
Fa's back with the liniment when
he gets a ketch in it.
Ma is kissing those babies
goodbye now, with an ache in
her heart, tears in her eyes, and
a smile on her lips, telling them
to be good boys, she can t tell
them to hurry back home as she
would in normal times; she
knows they may never come
back.
Pa's heart can break too, but

So folks let's give the boys. Ma
and ourselves a break, let us
each do all that we can to see
that those boys have all the guns,
ammunition, ships and planes
that they need, let's each one of
us in our days work see if we
can t do just a little more, we
will be helping some soldier in
a uniform if we da, and it could
be our own son.
, The better our soldiers are,
equipped the more of them will
come home, and the shorter the
war will be.
So let's buy bonds, by doing
so we will be helping our boys
and ourselves, they are a fine
investment, they are secured by

VASHINOTON, June 3 The
w worm hus turned In this
wai turned completely over,
reached its feet and Is gallon-
ing. Evidence Is available on
every front.
The mass raid on Cologne, for
instance, signalled the beginning
of the groatest air-bombing
campaign the world has ever
seen. It Is truo no war yet has
been won by bombing, but no
war yot has seen such scien
tific air bombardment in such
vast force as Is coming up,
The muis lost the air battle
ot Britain because they could
not stand the losses. In their
heaviest bombing raids, they
lost as many as 145 to 150
ships a night, or about 20 per
cent ot the force Involved.
They had to quit because In
five days they would have
needed 100 per cent air replace
ments.
Their averogo losses through
the whole air battle ot Britain
was about 10 per cent which
was too much, also. They would
have needed 100 per cent re
placement every 10 days to
ken that uc
But In the Colosne raid, even
If you accept the German claims
(17 shot down) and figure that
number of British bombers In
volved as 1000, the rate of loss
was only 4.7 per cent which
means success, and bodes HI for
Hitler s future.
PURSUITS USED
Thero are several reasons for
this. For the first time in his
tory Britain used night fighter
pursuit planes to protect the
bombers. One British air of
ficer here was so surprised at
tne press reports of this feat.
he refused to believe them true
until official confirmation fol
lowed.
The British apparently massed
their fighter pursuits along the
coast for a takeoff when the
bombers came alone from docrj-
er ininna. These fighters were
then able to take care of the
nazi planes sent up from the
occupied Belgian and French
fields to Intercept the bombers,
Never before had pursuits
Deen used in a night raid, and
only once previously In a day-
ugnt ram over France.
But there Is another greater
reason. Germony cannot protect
adequately against bombing the
vast region of her homeland
and occupied military object
ives. She cannot provide sufficient
anti-aircraft fire at everv vul
nerable placo. Nor can she shift
her air forco around to meet
nightly challenges which may

RAIL CENTER
Cologne was chosen for the

to France and the main line
