Six Montii Oca Year Junior High School f"OR several years there has school for Klamath Falls. to a head by Arnold Gralapp, city school superintendent, who has developed a plan for a junior high, formed ex clusively of all eighth graders in the city, to be located In the Fremont school building. A decision upon his recommendation is to be made shortly. The junior high idea has been advanced occasionally In the past as a means of relieving the housing pressure at Klamath Union high school, which has grown in stu dent body size by leaps and bounds in the last decade. The present plan will not affect the KUHS situation, be cause it does not call tor moving the ninth graders into a junior hisrh. as was discussed in the past. Mr. Gralapp, however, makes a case for the junior high composed of eighth graders alone, which is about all that can be done at present without the construction of a new plant. He lists advantages in the establishment of a transitional department between elementary and high schools in the educational system here, and points. out that such a plan has been widely adopted. The Gralapp plan, if carried out, will probably prove the first step in a more extensive junior high school de velopment, particularly if the community takes on new growth and the housing pressure at the high school be comes more serious. Of interest to taxpayers and parents is the superintendent's contention that the consolidation of eighth grades, as he advocates, will bring educational advantages but will effect actual tax economies. If the plan called for additional expenditures, this we'd be no time to undertake it Maybe They Need a Scan INDIFFERENCE of the eastern states to the war effort is increasingly disturbing to us in the west. In rubber and other scrap drives, bond sales, and other methods of public participation, the east is falling far short of the showing made in the west Yet the east is participating avidly in the industrial and wage boom that the war has brought to many communities. As Eleanor Roosevelt and the east is going to feel far less seriously than the west the effects of private transportation strictures. The east has a vast public transportation system m operation, whereas in the west we depend largely upon private methods of transportation to carry us over greater dis tances. The east should be made to accept first the re itrictions that promise to become increasingly drastic. We do not know whether are more remote from wars destruction. Perhaps a good care would do the folks back there a lot of good. Pelican Fire THAT the Pelican Bay fire I saving an important industrial plant and millions of teet oi stacked lumber, is a the fire-fighting there Tuesday and a most fortunate break for this community. As was the case with the Ewauna fire last summer, what appeared to be a certain holocaust was stomed short of disaster. That was nard work, and the smart strategy of fire fighters and their leaders. It is gratifying that investigation shows there was no evidence of sabotage at the Takes Exami Van Thome, employed In the superinten dent's office of the Great North ern railroad, is expected to re turn Wednesday from Portland where he has been taking physi- cal and mental exams for vol unteer officer training.

FDR Nominates Bly Postmaster WASHINGTON, July 15 IP) President Roosevelt has sent to the senate the following nomi nations for postmaster in Ore gon: Bly Georgia G. Casebeer; lone Ruby C. Roberta; New berg George Larkin; Sclo Early Phillips: Seaside Frank H. Laighton. We should quit comnllmentine ourselves on our capacity to take it and show the world a capacity to dish it out Patrick J. Hurley, U. S. minister to New Zealand. BUy It through the want-ads. I WASHINGTON, July 15 Con " gressman, Andrew Jackson May set the military men a mut tering when he announced the war might be over this year, cer tainly next. Mr. May is an exceptionally able legislator and chairman of Uie house military affairs com mittee, but he is also known as a teller of tall stories. He has long insisted, for instance, that down in Pike county, Kentucky, he never shoots at a squirrel di rectly, but at the limb on which it is perched, so he can kill it by concussion. An off-set to Mr. May's amaz ing prediction has been offered by Senator Tydings, of Mary land, who thinks the war will not end until 1944. Everyone likes to hear good news, and such statements as these are given prominence in the press for that reason, al though they are not worth the breath it took to utter them. No one in authority knows when the war will end. No one can have a good guess. And such wild stabs as are being made fluctuate from day to day with news from the-front. One official, who knows a; much about it 85 either Mr. May or Mr. Tydings, says the war will last five years. If Egypt rails. All that can be truthfully and safely said is this: Many air-minded authorities hope for great things from the second front of air bombing which has been opened by the British. It has been announced this is to be greatly Intensified with our help soon. Those who think the war can be won this way naturally ex pect an early conclusion. They are in the minority. The vast majority of authorities see the end nowhere in sight. SNOW OF GOLD It will snow gold for denend- ents in the armed services next November 2, the day before elec tion. On that peculiarly timed occasion, around $325,000,000 of held-up allowances will be shov eled out of the clouds here in payments to wives, children, fathers and mothers. No pay ments will be made until then. The war department says it never heard of the election which is to occur November 3. It says it chose November 1, two days preceding keep a straight face please because bookkeep ing and investigation will delay the preparation of checks until precisely that moment from June 1, the date from which the allowances are to be made. A tremendous amount of ad ministrative labor and bookkeep ing is no doubt necessary to get such a vast system going. But the most peculiar and still unex plained phase of the matter is, why payments are not to be made as cases, are completed in the coming months, but are to be held up for one great lump sum payment of five months' ar rears just before the voters go to the polls to elect a new con gress? The inhuman aspect of the matter is that the dependents are assumed to be needy, else the payment would not be made. These are not gratuities, but are for subsistence. How the de pendents will live until two days before election, is not quite clear. Note The basic allowance for a dependent wife is $50, the government contributes $28 and the soldier $22. In addition, the government furnishes $20 for one child, $10 for each addition al child, $5 for parents and oth er relatives, etc. Maximum pos sible payment is $112. RUBBER BURNS Any place you touch the rub ber situation, it burns, with a usual resultant aroma. Only now has the OPA increased the price offered for guayule from 171 cents per pounds to 28 cents per pound, In order to get some of that robber base product which Mexico has been selling to others. Our whole Latin American buying policy is still contlnu ing along the same old faulty low-priced line. Argentine. Brazilian and Chilean manufac turers have been topping our fixed minimum and getting the rubber we need. Incidentally, a large synthetic rubber Interest will announce within a few days a new plan for super-synthetic product on which Is supposed to provide tires capable of traveling 60' miles an hour.
