It is well for the eommun- ity to realize that from now on, we are going to have I service men visitors among us, and we should do what I we can for these fellows while they are here. I Suggestion has come to this desk that steps should be 1 taken to provide here a place where visiting service men I can sit down to rest and read, play pool or ping pons, iand make use of shower and toilet facilities. Something on the order of a USO shack is needed, but because there is no large troop concentration here, the USO itself prob- I abiy wouid not undertake anything of the kind. It is 5 something that can be done locally, through the efforts f of a local organization and possibly with the aid of the troop entertainment fund. l Possibly a room in the armory could be fitted up for j the purpose, or perhaps a fraternal organization would :i be willing to undertake such a project. ;; We should not wait for visitation of large numbers !j of troops to bring our troop entertainment efforts into operation. Communists in California IN California, politics and litigation go hand in hand this year. A lot of court action has developed in ad vance of the August primary. Most sensational is an apr peal to the state supreme court by the communist party, which is attempting to stay on the August primary ballot The communist party was legislated off the ballot in 1940 on the grounds that it was an organization with subversive doctrines. A Los Angeles superior court ruled to uphold the legislation, but the state supreme court, on appeal, reversed the lower , court. The legislature, under the court's theory, had no power to bar a political party by name. The attorney general and secretary of state, the court held, were not authorized to determine that a political party is subversive. But that did not get the communist back on the ballot peuieuiijr vi outie raui reon aaia inac m no way, now ever, did the supreme , court decision preclude a de- termination of the subversive tent jurisdiction. " So Peek withheld the irom a place on the ballot, to the Lbs Angeles court, Attorney General Earl Warren will submit evidence supporting the contention that the communist party is subversive ity as a recognized political party in California. Practically, it is doubtful if the communists would make any political headway, regardless of the outcome of the court fight. This not. a time when a group even suspected of subversive notions can get anywhere politi cally in this country. It is safe to remark that the com munist party is suspected of The untimely death of Mrs. J. Royal Shaw removed a citizen of this community who had contributed greatly to its cultural and civic life. For years she was active in such organizations as th American Association of Uni versity Women, the Women's Library elub and the Del phian society, and was a leader in music circles. This newspaper joins a wide circle of friends and admirers of Mrs. Shaw in extending sympathy to her sorrowing Pete Is Back, After Six Months of Wandering Pete Is back home. 8 Last winter a driving mew storm drove him away from shelter, out : into the woods around Fish lake, and for six months he has wandered, alone and perhaps afraid, away from his daily ration of bread and ' grain and the companionship of the !?1K sorrel horse with whom ha grated the hillsides. His mis tress mourned and hunted. His name echoed from hilltop to hill top, but not once did she see him. The ways of the wild are cruel There are bear and bob cats in th high mountains and Pete was entl as kitten. He had even walked into the living room of the house bark home and old Jaok the collie, and his son King wore psis of Pete s. The weeks passed and the tinkle ot the bell about his rteck was only a memory. Wild deer came to the salt lick near the house, but Pete was not among inem. Then one day recently. Mrs. Mamie Wsmplcr, who lives on tha wait side of Upper Klam ath laka, saw on a Jaunt into the woods a twe-yenr-rtld buck with a bit of red tied about Ills neck. Knowing that Pete had strayed away, she phoned h 1 s owner, WARNING BIWARI OF BOWEL WORMS tunro4na lntlda vm frr Hm fhll') i irouDif. am rv mi m now vbM b mi, Wufilaf tftii ri"plelty'a UAMft. ttuffittrh. liejllnf MrU.

BOYS ESCAPE SALEM, July 22 A)- Tour bbys, ranging from 16 to 18 years old, escaped last night from tha Oregon Fairview horn for fechle-mlnrlerl. I J3EHIN1 WASHINGTON, July 22 Tha campaign of the new re public, the Luce publications and some others to clean out this congress seems to have fallen flat as far as the primaries are concerned. No more than nor mal casualties among sitting congressmen are reported from the electoral front. A tabulation made by the democratic congressional cam paign committee, for its own In formation only, shows that out of the first J 15 congressmen to face the voters in primaries thus far, no more than 10 have fail ed of renomination. Most of these were involved in personal situations, having nothing to do with the isolationist-intervention 1st dispute. The tempsr of the electorate thus obviously is shown to be extraordinarily complacent. The antagonism to congress which has gained so much popular pub licity has nowhere been reflected in the results. Furthermore, voting every' where has been extremely light. and less than the usual number of congressmen are even faced with serious opposition. WO SONG This seems to be a war without song. A war of grim public quietude. Public opinion on the surface seems confused, and at times embittered by such reg ulations as gas rationing and other displays of Washington in efficiency, but so far it is wholly lacking in the enthusiasm re quired to go to the polls and vote Tio. The politicos explain this phenomena with the assumption tnat everyone is busy in war work, In the army, or out of it. Farmers are bearing down hard er than usual. No tax sales are reported in their communities. Other citizens, they say, are laboring so long and hard they take little time out for politics except to drop an idle cuss word now and then at Washington. HOW THEY GO Four states in the south have now held primaries, Florida, Alabama, Oklahoma and North Carolina, and only two congress men failed. Pro-Roosevelt Luth er Patrick from Alabama lost because he made some facetious speeches which were not inter preted in the humorous way they were intended (say his friends) and Wilburn Cartwright lost in Oklahoma because he got In a personal row with the governor. Out in the middle west: All were renominated in Iowa. In Illinois, a democrat, Leo Kocialkowski, lost out because the Cook county machine had an other job in mind for him, and he foolishly thought he could win anyway. One republican, George A. Paddock, lost because popular former Representative Ralph Church wanted his "old job back. In Indiana only one lost, a democrat, William T. Schulte, whose job was desired by the mayor of the largest town in his district and a superior political power. In Pennsylvania, two democrats-were beaten, one (Charles I. Faddis) because his district had been rearranged to take in some labor communities where his policies were not popular. and the other. Representative Guy L. Moser, had barely skin ned through in previous primar ies. A couple of republicans suffered from re-dlstricting but none from the war Issue. Robert F. Rich did not stand for renomination, because his district was split In twain and attached to two adjoining dis tricts, and Benjamin Jarrett was defeated due to four new coun ties being attached to his district. All were renominated in Ore gon, but in Maine one fell (James C. Oliver). Some down-easters attributed Mr. Oliver's defeat to his isolationist stand. Wiser politicians who go be low the surface for their answers think the republicans there were foxy. They did not want Oliver running against the strong Brann in November, but picked a candidate with less of an anti Roosevelt foreign policy. A local political situation likewise de feated one republican In North Dakota (Charles R. Robertson). Of the above-mentioned, Fad dis was a strong pro-war man: Moser and Schulte were classed as isolationists. Certainly it is clear the demo cratic voters were not mad at the democratic congressmen, and the republican voters seemed generally satisfied with their re publican representative. It may be different in November when the democrats come up against the republicans, but for the pres ent all is extremely quiet on the political front. HALF-HEARTED Half-hearted gestures have been made by the administration, suggesting Mr. Roosevelt might go after the old opponents of his foreign policy. A New York leader who came SIDE GLANCES am. iMiimi iiitoi uk, T. m. ro. v. t "I m sure you'll be delighted to hear Unit our beloved secretary is doing his port by permitting his chuuH'eur to work nights in a war plunli" , out of the White House recently said the president Wanied the test of a man for the New York gubernatorial race to be made on the basis of support of the Roosevelt foreign .policy before Pearl Harbor. But the demo cratic machine there went ahead planning to nominate one who did not fill that particular re quirement. So, it goes every where. The administration well knows if it opens a campaign of bitter partisanism to punish its old political opponents, they will fight back with the evidence of inadequate administration pre parations for war before Pearl Harbor, and a political melee disastrous to unity wi(l ensue. SAN FRANCISCO. July 22 (P) Longshoremen have won high praise from the Pacific coast, maritime industry board for speedy handling of ships carrying war materials from west coast ports. But the commendation, voiced by Paul Eliel, board chairman, in a report to the industrial re lations section of the Common wealth club, was accompanied by the implication there still were some loafers among the dock workers. "Every officer of the local union has agreed with the board that the time has arrived for the imposing ot discipline upon all recalcitrants," Eliel said. Union leaders already have taken disciplinary action in cases with the result that the waterfront labor situation has improved considerably, Eliel said. "This, of Itself, represents a dramatic and spectacular change in attitude. There is universal testimony that since its (the board's) organization, there has been an enormous change in at titude among longshoremen. The majority take their responsibili ties, under war conditions seri ously and they approach their work conscientiously." TREE NO SAFETY ZONE PHILADELPHIA (JP) A 40 foot tree with eight men In the branches to escape a storm fell In the path of , a trolley car and . . . The motorman and three of his passengers were injured In the crash. The eight tree-sitters picked themselves up and discovered there were no Injuries. Police arrested the eight for drunkenness, disorderly conduct and malicious mischief. ii.i.iiiHTJi NOW PLAYING TUB Hit No 1 "I Was a Captlva Nasi Oermanj ht. wr. ester naif sB From the file f- 40 years From The Klamath Republican July 24. 1902 If the railroad, which is now slowly advancing toward this place, were already here, and it a large steamboat were on Upper Klamnth lake, the two would do an immense business this summer. The great rush from San Francisco to Portland would much prefer to journey io t-ratcr lake by rail and boat. instead of jolting painfully over the rough mountain roads, and the number who come would be multiplied by thousands. There are other things besides timber to encourage the build ing of a railroad and an impor tant one is the immense army of tourists which will invade this country every summer if they can' get here with case and comfort. From Tha Klamath News July 22. 1932 Dr. C. V. Rugh and Hod Eller attended a meeting of the Mer rill Service club this week. Don Kenyon and Harvey Brannon will leave Friday on a trip to Rocky Point and Lake o' the Woods. Mrs. Lottie Martin and grand daughter, Charlotte Carter, re turned Monday from a visit to Portland. EXPENSIVE TROUSERS BELLEVILLE. III. (IP) Hcr- schel Walsh, 40-year-old elec trician, is a sadder and wiser man today and a somewhat sheepish possessor of a new pair of trousers. Scheduled to appear In court on a disorderly conduct charge, Walsh defiantly removed his pants and tore them. Police of ficers studied his build, pur chased another pair and hauled him Into court. Walsh was fined $25 for dis orderly conduct, $3.40 costs and $4.85 for the trousers. If It weren't for the palms In the ritzy cafes waiters would make a lot loss.

ARGEWTIIME LEADER MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay, July 22 Ml Argentina's foreign min ister, Enrique Ruiz Guinazu, ac cording to advices received hero from Informed Argentine sources, totd last week's secret session of the chnmbcr of dep uties that his government had refused to convoy Its own mer chant ships when that sugges tion wus made by Washington. Argentine government spokes men have previously indicated they considered convoying would be a step toward war. Ruiz Guinn7.11 was quoted as telling the chamber Argentina would not Join "the herd" of American republics, which he said; was being 1 led by the United States to make war on tho axis. This disparaging refer- ence to other American nations was deplored by one opposition leader. Ruiz Guinazu's statements were made in the course of 11 long speech answering a foroign policy Interpellation by Social ist Deputy Nicolas Rcpctto. The Interpellation demanded whether, in view of a Gorman submarine's sinking tho Argen tine freighter Rio Terccro, the time has not arrived for Ar gentina to sever relations with the axis in accordance with recommendations of the foreign ministers' conference at Rio de Janeiro last January. In his expositions, made avail able here in part in private In- lormation irom Buenos Aires, Ruiz Guinazu charged that the Washington administration was trying to dominate the western hemisphere. Ho also was said to have repeated previous criticism of other American republics for having declared war against the axis without awaiting the out come of the Rio consultations.
