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.

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.

The port could not be used as

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

their mission of destroying their
ammunition.

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.

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,
