Increase Stage Line Usefulness THE need for a change in public transportation sched I ules between Klamath Falls and communities in this trading territory, mentioned previously in this column, becomes increasingly urgent as the private transportation problem becomes more acute. At present, the stage connections between here and Lakeview, including such waypoints as Dairy, Bly and Beatty, operate on a schedule which takes the stage out of Klamath Falls in the morning and back in the evening, The same condition exists as regards the stage service between here and Alturas, serving such important way- points as Merrill, Tulelake, the Japanese relocation cen ter and Tionesia. Development of the large community at the Japanese center, including many American em ployes and officials who need transportation service be tween that point and Klamath Falls, makes the installation of a convenient stage schedule more important than ever on tins route. .- , It is clear that at present, these stage schedules are so arranged that they do not give the interurban service needed. What we should have is a stage which comes into Klamath Falls in the morning and goes out in the late afternoon or evening, on both the Lakeview and Alturas runs. Hundreds of residents of these commun ities and farmers along the routes would find this service useful. As private transportation becomes more difficult, sucn service becomes a public necessity. Installation of stage schedules that will meet this situation is imperative. Likewise, the present transporta tion problem makes it advisable to consider extension of stage service to such communities as Malta, Sprague River, Bonanza, and possibly other communities not at present served such service to be so scheduled that it would be useful to people wishing to come into Klamath Falls in the day and return to their homes at night Pos sibly more complete bus service to suburban districts is now in oraer. Let's not kid ourselves about our cars. The time in coming when their use will be so sharply curtailed that it will be absolutely necessary to depend upon public transportation. Nonvis the time to make public trans portation as convenient and effective as possible, and now j me nine to maice use or it more extensively. It will help conserve what private transportation equipment is left. What Did It Cast? HARGES of waste in government construction pro w jects, made by the house military affairs committee this week, direct attention to the fact there has never been made public a figure on the cost of the Japanese relocation center at Tulelake. Why the public should not be informed on this point has not been explained. The authorities in charge simply have refrained from giving the information, and this newspaper has been told in at least one instance that the costs of the project are a matter which should not be publicized. - , This project was constructed on a cost-plus basis such as drew cntical reference by the house military affairs committee. It was built necessarily with great speed and &r,riBmLarkbIa achievement in this connection. But the fact about its cost does not appear to be in formation of strategic military significance. In fact, it r,?Ki d 8el:mw bf f?0 thins a00" ich the public, which foots the bill, has a right to be informed. Tokyo Publishes Aleutian Reports BERLIN (From German Broadcasts), June 25 VP) First ptuHograpni ana tne rst eye witness report of Japanese land lngs on the Aleutian Islands were published In Tokyo papers weanesaay morning, the Ger man radio reported. The account said a landing was mnae on one island on June 7 without bloodshed, six bar- racKs being occupied by the Japanese but only two United states marines being captured. It said the remainder bad fled. On another island the JaDan- ese were declared to have taken possession of a wireless station and four barracks hi which the lights still burned but which wars abandoned.

If we knew the trick we could save a lot of time waiting for elevators. current flurry of news-items about strikes breaking here and there about the country does not yet constitute, a new strike-threat to war production, but docs be tray a new outburst of union politics. - The union politicos apparently are bent on crowding Mr. Roose velt s war board Into great new salary and political concessions. , The new strikes are minor, usually involving a small num ber of men. They have been running anywhere from 3 to 8 a day since Pearl Harbor and are generally shortlived. It is as tonishing that there are any at all at a time like this, but the union leaders seem to be holding their boys in line reasonably well on that front. But : they, themselves, have been building up through simul taneous demands upon employ ers and the WPB what consti tutes a campaign to break the voluntary government wage freezing arrangement upon which the war economy is based. The United Auto Workers have,, for instance, made ex treme demands on the Chrysler corporation for a new contract. These go far beyond the limits of FDR's cost of living yardstick for wages, and probably beyond what the union leaders may ex pect to get. The union demanded $1 a day increase for everyone. $1 Der hour minimum for all workers, and $1.50 an hour minimum for maintenance workers on a retro active basis a long way back, to gether with other concessions. Many other cases seeking $1 day increases are piling ud in WPB. The little steel cases have been there undecided since Feb ruary. Also a General Motors case has Tested there since April 2T. WPB has received in ail, around 200 cases and about 125 are still on hand. Each labor member of negoti ating committees is apparently trying to outdo all others in making demands for the men. Their mass demands are thus be ing dumped into the lap of WPB, which is now piled high with what might be called political labor demands. ' No wage pattern has yet been laid down by WPB. Recently granted 10 cents an hour in crease (80 cents a day) In the Ryan Aeronautical case, but WPB members indicated this was not to be used as a pattern. .On closed shop, however, it established a loose policy various lorms of the union maintenance shop" which is, in practical effect, a closed one. In customary form, it allows mem bers to resign from unions at atari of the contract, but not thereafter, and new employees must join the union.

Apparently they Intended to up their ammunition and escape on the boats. The port could not be used as plane and sea base for defense of Malta with so much German Ircraft around, and the cost of siege this time would have been dear. But the Germans took them by surprise. The crafty Marshal Rommel changed tactics from the last campaign. Then he had by-passed Tobruk and pursued the British Into Egypt with the main part of his force, coming back later to lay seige. That gave the Tobruk forces time to get ready. Last Saturday he gave them no time. His dive bombine planes took their small alrforce by surprise and he pierced their outer lines and captured the citv before they had time to carry out I their mission of destroying their ammunition. it was another case of inferior British generalship in keeping with the rest of the Libyan cam paign. e GENERAL GRANTS OKEH Mud-slinging always follows lost campaign. Several mil itary interpreters are throwing some at our tanks. They assume that the big nazi 88 mm guns were in German tanks and that these blasted our "General Grants" out of the desert - If this was true, and our tank is inferior to the nazis, the implications would be terrific upon our war effort, particular ly as to establishing of a second front in Europe, and as to the length of the war (it might take perhaps a year to change our tank and get a new model into action In great quantities). Fortunately all this is not true and the experts who are making such assertions are inadvertently doing damage to our cause. Every reporter in the field in Libya says the American "Gen eral Grant" tank stood up well, some saying the British conceded it was "the best in the field." 1 The only complaint . heard from the front was that it has a limited traverse (a defect cor rected in subsequent models). The trouble was only 30 per cent Of the tanks in action were ours, 70 per cent were British. Furthermore those nazi 88 s were not in German tanks, but were towed or self-propelled field pieces (artillery). That gun seems to.be about the only su periorlty the Germans had, and Its effectiveness could have been offset by more careful use of American and British : tanks (they ran into artillery traps). It is officially correct that the British themselves believed they had more tanks, more planes and more troops than the Ger mans at the beginning of the battle. They requested noth ing more from us. All the mudslinging in the world cannot obliterate the fact that our side would have won if we had a general capable of smartly handling what he had. Tulelake School To Be Modernized TULELAKE Installation of modern new equipment, includ ing gas stoves, electric refriger ator, new tables and benches in the school cafeteria in the grade school building is planned for the near future.

ON JUVENILE CASES KLAMATH FALLS, Ore., (To ine fcdttor) In my mind your method of pubheising the recent action of tho "Nulls" is deserving of tho tiighutt praise. Seems to me by keeping the numo und pic tures of those unfortunate indiv iduals out of tho piiper you have helped these youngsters Just wnen uiuy nood help the most. Tho publishing of tho names und pictures of youngsters Involved in crime muy bo nuccssary and beneficial in rare cuaoa, Uul.l am Inclined to bolluve such cases are rare Indued. Certainly the "Nails" will be ostracized from society enough without any further action. During tho year thero are many cases Unit uppeur before tills olfico. Muny inure ure handled by County Juvcnllo Of ficer Forrest Losee. Each ono of these cases Is now and Interest ing especially for nowspapor publicity, but very seldom does a case appear In tho pupur. This is due nuiinly because tho offi cers and publicity ugencltis are dcuply interested in tho f uturo of our young people. Every boy or girl who Is brought belore this oldce is treated as 1 would want my youngster handled under similar circumstances. As 1 wrote tills letter a young man appeared in my omce, wtio nud stolen un automobile, li 1 s nume could havo been published in tho pa per several times, and ho would have been more or less an out cast from society, but he now in forms mo that ho has enlisted in 1 the United States navy. This boy really appreciates tho help j given him, and furthermore his j parents were a hundred per cunt cooperative during the boy's mis-1 deeds. Yes, and some of our boys whose names were not pub-1 ucizcd are making heroes of themselves today with our armed forces. The aircraft carrlor, Lexing ton, had one of our heroes aboard. I could slve a good many instances whero boys, who have been before this office, are now proving to be fine men in the defense of our country. The paper is to be commended for its cooperation in the dealing with our youth. Also the juve nile court headed by Circuit Court Judge David Vandonberg, should be recognized as doing outstanding work In helping tho youth. of our city and county. I am definitely for legislative action making the parents stand trial with their children, and of course feel sorry that the par ent's name could not be pub lished without jeopardizing the youth's career further. Thanking you kindly, I am, Sincerely yours, DAVE BRIDGE, City Juvenile-recreation officer. Picnics are where keys break when you start to open a can of food.
