Stop This Evil
CITY councilmen Monday night heard renewed com
plaints that taxicab drivers are engaging in illegal
ale of liquor in this community. Bootlegging becomes
a matter of particular seriousness at this time because
of wartime conditions and the
bers of the armed forces in
were warned they should clean up the taxicab-bootlegging
situation before it receives
tary authorities.
Recognition of this condition led the council late last
year to include certain provisions in the taxicab licensing
ordinance adopted at that time. The ordinance provides
that the license of a taxicab
driver is convicted of violating liquor laws. Here is an
effective legal means of attacking the situation, and the
council should not hesitate
Taxicabs are often connected with the sale of liquor
to Indians, in violation of federal, state and city statutes,
the council was told Monday
dition that does nothing good
ath Falls and here, again, a strong hand is needed to stop
a stubborn evil.
Taxicabs enjoy various privileges at the hands of the
public authorities. They are permitted certain uses of
the streets for parking and for-hire service, and the li
censes grant exclusive rights. The public authorities have
no business licensing operations which -engage in illegal
activities; if taxicabs cannot
or the law, they should not be operated at all.
It is no doubt true that proprietors of cab operations
cannot keep a constant check on their emnloves. and that
the actual offenses are committed by the drivers rather
tnan the operators of the businesses. But if these illegal
activities are to be stopped, it is necessary to place the
responsibility on both the operator and his agents.
Public opinion should come to the support of public
officials in striking a blow at taxicab bootlegging.
Dogs and Gardens
THE end of the period for keeping dogs-confined is
approaching. On July 1, the period will have expired,
and so far as the city ordinance is concerned, dogs may
again run free from that date until next year.
When the ordinance providing for dog restrictions
was adopted, it was recognized that May and June are
the "growing months" for gardens here, and it was de
cided that those should be the months when dogs are
confined. This year, however, the season is unduly late,
and growing conditions will continue into July.
It has been suggested that the city extend restrictions
through July. This would require an amendment to the
ordinance, and it would take three weeks to get it through
the council. It will therefore not be attempted.
However, there is nothing to prevent public spirited
citizens from continuing to keep their dogs from running
wild over their gardens and those of their neighbors.
Those who have found the dog restrictions beneficial
should consider keeping them in effect on a voluntary
basis.
Malin, always a thriving community, has a new in
dustry in the sprawling feed yards and mill of the Malin
Feed company, which will carry on extensive cattle feed
ing operations. The Malin cheese factory is producing
twice the amount of cheese it produced last year at this
time, selling it largely in the bay area market. Malin
is doing all right. .
Tonight, Tuesday, the annual meeting of the Klamath

" Libya this time, It ws not
"too little and too late." It was
just "too bad."
The British had superiority in
the air, on the sea and on the
land in tanks, planes, ships,
troops. There was nothing
wrong with their battle strategy
that could be discerned here, yet
Rommel pushed them bark.
Official alibis are now pouring
forth in volume, but the overall
alibi is not being stressed. It
is clear that Rommel just out-
maneuvered them.
Inferior in overall fighting
strength, he picked specific
limited objectives. He searched
for soft spots in the British line,
then hammered these with con-
centra tions of all he could
muster.
The British tried to hold every
where Bir Achem, Acroma,
Sidl Rezegh, after the nazis had
cut narrow lanes through their
defensive mine fields. They dl-
vided their forces, placing the
divisions at these and other key
places.
Rommel went at these key
points one by one. Following
Napoleon's theory, he hit each
point separately, each time must
ering a superior force at that
chosen spot.
Finally he split the British in
half, one part remaining In To-
bruk and the other seeking the
natural protection of the
Egyptian border.
NAZIS TOUCHER
The nazi troops were tougher
and better trained than the Brit
ish, particularly better than the
last British reinforcements from
Egypt Then, too, the British
were so confident that the in
tolerable summer heat would
prevent any extensive nazi op
erations, they did not throw their
full strength into the battle as
soon as the Germans did.
Here again, as at Singapore, it
was evident also that some Brit
ishers still indulge themselves in
the theory if not in the practice
or tune out for Scotch and sodas.
siestas or cricket.
The troops fought hard and
thought they had Rommel trap-
pea wnen they set him back
from, Bir Achem. Having air
superiority, they bombed his thin
supply lines running back in the
lanes through the mine fields.
This should have won for
tnem, but they then encountered
too much Rommel and too much
weather. The crafty nazi used
every kind of vehicle which
would haul water or gas, and his
troops went for long stretches
witnout water.
British soldiers, escaoinz from
German prison camps, said that
they had gone 48 hours without
water, and when they comnlain.
to, nommers officers asserted
they had no water for 48 hours
either.

Rommel's caravans were able to

British planes.
TECHNICAL EXCUSE
If you want a good technical
excuse, you may find It in tha
trerman 88 millimeter anti-tank
and anti-aircraft gun. Most of
the tanks in the fight were Brit
ish: The relatively small num
ber of our General Grants per
formed well according to all ac
counts. But Rommel used his superior
gun on self-propelled and towed
mounts to devastating effect.
That dual purpose gun has an
extremely high muzzle velocity
no i nigmy respected.
When Rommel retreated the
first time he concentrated them
in narrow defiles in which he
trapped many a British tank.
For another thing, Rommel
used his planes In close support
of his tanks, while the British
let the tanks go alone and used
their planes mainly to bomb
Rommel's supply lines (although
this is a choice most generals
would have made.)
Despite Rommel's victory, he
has lost a lot of tanks and there
