Mercury-Register) MORALE that indefinable something is the spirit that wins war. That is the expressed belief of mili tary and civilian leaders alike. Here in our own small town there appears to have been a change in this spirit during recent months, one that is even more apparent since America entered the war. When the first few quotas of selective service trainees left Oroville back in the early days of 1941, the young men were honored at ceremonies with speeches and parade before departing ,for training camps. Large crowds gathered at draft board headquarters and at the depot to make the sendoff a little more cheerful. That was in the uiiys when the boys were just going away to camp to practice at soldiering for a year. Today the picture is considerably changed. Each se lectee leaving home, job and family now faces the pros pect of a few short weeks in a training camp, then a long ocean trip to one of the United Nations' battle fronts scattered throughout the world. Each knows that it may be many months even years his friends and loved ones come a man on a casualty This is the time when he the bus or train to wish him a wave may mean the difference between going away with a heavy heart, and the feeling that the war may be .won sooner with the aid of But with all of this, only up when a group of selectees ville. .me other day a quota left A few people gathered to see the boys off. It was a sad, quiet bunch of young men boarding the bus for the induction station. Morale means more than ing men at tne iront. it takes a lot of boosting from the men at home. Getting up an hour earlier occasionally to cheer a departing group of potential soldiers is only e email contribution to winning the war, but it is an im portant one.

Summer Makes a Late Appearance Summer made a belated ap pearance in Klamath Falls Sun day, but made her appearance just tne same.

Bones passed the names of three navy applicants to Deputy Wiley Faw to investigate. "One of them's Earl B. Faw. Any kin to you?" "Nope," said Faw. "never heard of him." Faw telephoned for an hour trying to locate the man. Sud denly let out a whoop. "By cracky, that's my boy, Benny." Earl's middle name is Benjamin. Deputy Faw is now carrying a list of the official names of his 12 children. . RfhtutV By RmjlMMLOM 1 WASHINGTON, June 29 The coming new rationing of eastern gasoline (July 22) is to be much mor- severe, yet every one in the oil trade seems agreed censored figures would show an improved condition of eastern supplies. The question of how much ra tioning is justified, could not be answered conclusively after In terior Secretary Ickes asked the American petroleum Institute to suppress its weekly figures of stocks of eastern gas on hand but nevertheless certain general evidence is available. Eastern gasoline stocks de clined from 20,600,000 barrels on January 1 to about 15,000,000 barrels May 16, a decline of 25 per cent. Since then the navy has started convoying tankers off the east coast, pipelines hav been reversed, railroad hauling has been expanded. Supplies, therefore, have naturally in creased. Those who have seen the censored figures frankly say the situation is better. The first gas rationing cer tainly was justified on the basis of dwindling supplies. It has re sulted in dropping consumption 33 per cent The drop for the average citizen going to work, was far more than 33 per cent, but buses, trucks and other pub lic conveyances have demanded so much more now, that the aver age is only 33 per cent, as com pared with a 25 per cent decline in stocks. Now the new decrees propose to cut this average down to 50 per cent, against a stock decline which must be less than 25 per cent. The Improved conditions of eastern stocks is not denied by most government authorities. But the current story they are passing around (and this is con firmed in some parts of the trade) is that fuel oil conditions this winter are likely to be bad beginning around October 1 They seem to be rationing gaso line on the basis of a fuel oil shortage next winter. A senatorial investigation of the situation by the Maloney committee was in prospect, but a resolution allowing him 510,000 is being delayed in the senate audit and control committee, un til the results of the president's rubber collection campaign are Known. PROHIBITION TACTICS The old prohibition method of seducing people to violate the law has been adopted by tha of fice of price administration. After a congressman charged that 50 beautiful young girls had been employed to go around and pieao witn gas dealers to give them a little gas, an official of Leon Henderson's office made an official announcement of the facts. OPA got 2000 volunteers from its offices in New York, Philadelphia and Washington and other volunteers "trained for the task" to drive up to filling stations ana ask: "I haven't my rationing card with me and I want 3 gallons of gasoline. He denied any of the amateur sleuths was paid especially for tnis work, and while many were women, he denied they were se lected for beauty. Even so, only 175 soft-hearted or criminal dealers could be found by the 2000. NO FIREWORKS The private Churchill-Roose velt meeting with coneressional leaders was considerably less than spectacular. After the con gressmen filed in, Mr. Churchill delivered a discourse which lasted about 30 minutes. One friendly congressman later de scribed it as "artful." Mr. Churchill apparently anti cipated all congressional ques tions. The president occasional ly chimed in. Both took the op timistlc view, Mr. Roosevelt pointing out that Jap planes were being destroyed faster than the .Taps could make them. Mr. Churchill scoffed at the reports of opposition against him at home, saying there were a few in London who were trying to create trouble. He pointed out the nazls face 125 miles of waste in Egypt, and he expected that heat will slack en their advance until fall, when the British will be ready again. He did not explain why so many British troops have been kept inactive in England. Senate Foreign Relations Chairman Connally later denied he had asked critical questions of the British prime minister. Apparently that report sprang from private observations Con nally mode In asides, to congress men sitting near him. Congressmen generally are over-awed In conferences called by the president, and this one waa no exception.

Gil len, county home demonstration agent, emphasised Monday. Increased use of a freezer locker for holding over surpluses of foods has given rise to various questions concerning prepara tion of foods for freezing, their storage life, and their handling upon removal from the locker, she said, and for this reason a series of demonstrations showing recommended methods of hand ling foods for the freezer locker and in home canning of foods is being planned for homemakers of Klamath county. Tuesday, June 30, at 1:45 p. m. at the Altamont elemen tary school, Mrs. Gillcn will pre sent a demonstration on home canning of fruits and vegetables. War ration sugar will be used for the fruits and the use of the pressure cooker will be demon strated for canning vegetables. Methods of preparing fruits and vegetables for the freezer locker will be shown. Bulletins Ready New extension bulletins on saving sugar In canning and specific methods in canning and freezing foods will be distribut ed. The Altamont extension unit is providing a girl to take care of the children at the meeting, and are urging all homemakers interested to attend. The same demonstration will be given on Thursday, July 2, at the Henley school, beginning at 10 a. m. Everyone is asked to bring a sack lunch. In Bly on July 7, Mrs. Glllen will demonstrate home canning of foods and preparation of foods for drying. This meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. James Dixon from 10 a. m. to 3 p. m.
