S3 Holding Up Our End VAEDNESDAY will mark the opening of a mighty all W out sales event by retail stores the nation over. This time, the merchandise to be offered is war bonds and stamps, and all the promotion resources of American retail business the greatest sales set-up in the world will be devoted to this gigantic effort. Locally, the retailers are out front with elaborate plans for their part of the program. Klamath business people are going to do their part, and the Klamath public, we anticipate, will respond in kind. The retail drive should aid materially in taking Klam ath county over the top on a bond sales quota of $250,000 for July. Klamath invented the successful bond pledge idea hereby individual pledging! were taken at precinct elec tion places. Each time a monthly bond quota has been set, this county has achieved it The June quota was reached almost 10 days before the end of the month. This county is holding up its end in the bond sales business. It is apparent from the plans that have been made that Klamath retailers intend to hold up theirs in the nationwide July drive. Eye-Opener TOM WATSON, Multnomah county assessor, is a well- informed public official who probably knows more about Oregon than the average citizen. Mr. Watson was in town the other day to attend the Veterans of Foreign Wars encampment Through the courtesy or county Assessor Charles H. Mack, he was shown over the Klamath basin. It was his first close-up view of the territory surrounding Klamath Falls. "It opened my eyes," said Mr. Watson, afterwards. I doubt if one Oresron citizen out of 100 knows the ex tent of .the agricultural development in this area. Most people know Klamath Falls is a major pine manufac turing center, but not many of them know it Is a great farming area where wonders have been done with water. "Some Teot)le look with some doubt on the future of lumber towns. Whatever the future of the lumber industry may be, I am convinced Klamath Falls will be a good city with a prosperous surrounding territory for an time. More Oregon people should know these facta about the Klamath country." Klamath is not engaged in promotion of settlement or land sales; it is generally content with what it has, without making. too much noise about it. It does a com munity no harm, however, to have its stabilitv well known. And sometimes the residents of the community them selves, living in the midst of sound development and fu ture promise, need a little bucking up. Too many people living in Klamath Fails and the suburbs are not fully aware of the extent of the present and potential agri cultural aeveiopment ot the Klamath basin. Service Men's Pictures BECAUSE of occasional, misunderstandings which may develop in connection with appearance of service men's pictures in this newspaper, a word of explanation may uc in uiuec in uus column. This newsDaner is trvino- to Voen for pictures of the men from here who have joined our armea lorces. vvitn nundreds going from this community, this is a difficult task, and it is not possible to comply with special requests for publication of pictures on cer tain aays, in certain places m the paper, etc. We have to take them as they come and do our best to get them in. We believe no paper of the size of The Herald and News in the state or northern California is running as many pictures of local service men as appear in this paper. We will try to keep to this record, asking for patience and indulgence. We suggest that pictures be submitted on the occasion of some special incident, such as a promotion or graduation. Langell Valley Women Do Their Pari in War Effort . LANGELL VALLEY Worn. en of Langell valley, eager to do their share In event of emerg- ency or ume ot need, have con tributed materially to the Klam ath chapter of the American Red Cross. Mrs. Alice Peatross has com pleted a beautiful tablecloth which she sold, the proceeds turned over to the local chapter. Ten pairs of goose down pillows, made by Frank Pepple, have been donated to the Red Cross. Two women who have opened their homes to assist with Red Cross sewing on each Tuesday of the month are Mrs, Bessie Frazier and Mrs. Bessie Camp bell. Both have been generous with their time. Bathrobes, sweaters, children's clothing, baby layettes, and many other articles have been made by the women on these Tuesday afternoons when they gather to sew. A committee from the Langell Valley Women's club is headed by Mrs. Mae Gale and is interested in the success ful drive to raise money for the USO. '41 FARM PROBLEM WAHOO, Neb., W3) Many of the nation's farmers are worried aDout getting this year's crop harvested, but that is not the immediate problem confronting one Saunders county farmer. He appealed to the federal government employment service office for help in getting his 70 acres of last year's, corn crop harvested. He explained he was behind in his work because of illness. News B 1 r& -UiliV EHlNBSa wmm. ll-fH By RvulMallom TVASHINGTON, June SO Some disappointment is evi dent In women's clubs and among citizen groups unfamiliar with military tactics (particular ly on the Pacific coast) against the Roosevelt-Churchill conduct of the war. The failure of their Joint state, ment to promise anything very definite, coming after the Dutch Harbor raid and the occupation of two remote rocks in the Aleu tian Islands, plus the really dis mal British failure In Libya, seems to be starting another wave of impatience, not shared by persons in possession of the facts. Enough truly bad news 1 probably coming along to let the faint hearted indulge themselves fully, without conjuring lmagin ary dangers. Fall of Sevastopol has been counted here as likely for the past two weeks. When that Rus- sian naval base goes,' about 20 good nazi divisions will be re leased for the delayed "spring1 drive in the Donets basin. The coming important part of the fight, nazi occupation ot Se vastopol, would not only clear the Crimea, but give the Ger mans an excellent Black sea port into which to pour supplies by boat from Rumania (via the Dan ube) and from Constanza. The Egyptian situation has re cently been judged as serious, but not hopeless for the British, They have a good line, if they can hold it. The Matruh line is an excel lent defensive position, much better than Sidi Barram for sev eral reasons. It follows south ward from the sea, a depression In the desert lined with a rocky escarpment. The sands there are loose and difficult for tanks. Trucks and supply trains cannot pass. There are no camel trains. l. he southern flank is pro tected further by waterless des ert of a difficult type. Camels can get through, but mechanized equipment would have to go a long way around. Any bragging statement from Mssrs. Roosevelt and Churchill, therefore, would have been un timely and might have a short lived effect. : . Impatient persons should face facts. Everyone wants a second front in Europe but the decision to launch that front should be made on a military, not a poli tical basis. The military leaders must decide when they have enough men and material to win. The Dutch Harbor raid was a minor sideshow and the occupa- tion of tip Aleutian islands (nearer Janan than Midway is land) is a matter of no import ance. You cannot blame Mr. Roose velt for Libya. The British were so confident there, they had taken little Interest in setting our lend-lease material there for three months past They had all they wanted or needed except a clever fighting general like MacArthur. Churchill and the British will have to answer for that one alone. SIDE GLANCES 1 IWWf 1a I-a .HI 8 JW W. Ml Wt WU U'VKt. ft. T. H WO. T. WT. "Keep smiling, son !

NO SUGAR SURPLUS The government is coming clean on sugar, at least moder ately clean. While exact fig ures of sugar stocks like those of gasoline are suppressed by censorship (not the voluntary kind), the Henderson office has announced stocks are only 2Q per cent below last year. Government officials private ly claim that these stories you read about warehouses bulging everywhere with sugar, are cir culated by political forces who want to kill the sugar act. Apparently south coast stor age houses are overflowing, be cause they are not accustomed to handling as large a portion of the supply as has poured in UDOn them lately. Also a Texas fac tory said it was going to shut down because it had no storage space left. The country as a whole has no surplus of sugar, although the question of how much rationing is justified is stil open. '.II"" !, ;, I !;"!;!

The labor members naturally will vote for the $1 a day in crease, and union maintenance shop. The industry members are backed in their oposltlon by the Roosevelt policy of maintaining equilibrium In the war economy. The representatives of the re public, who hold the balance of power are sitting on a griddle and know it, being hopelessly divided. The split naturally must be kept from the public gaze and compromise which can be an nounced as "unanimously adopt ed" is what the board powers are working on. Whether it will be along the line of the panel report is a yet undecided question. The board has been kicking off since February a decision on this test case which will furnish the pattern for General Motors. Chrysler and Ford, and may up set the Henderson planned war price economy. It Is strictly a case between the CIO and the government. The companies do not care as much as usual about the wage increase, because the public treasury will have to pay it in Friendly Helpfulness To Evsrf Creed and pun Ward's Klamath Funeral Home Mr. and Mrs. A.
