H Ona Year - They Thrive I.LAMATH DGonle who over the activities of Jehovah's Witnesses here should realize that these people invite and thrive on criticism and attacks, which they interpret as persecution. Nothing pleases them more than counter activity, by law enforce ment officials or private citizens, and they welcome inci dents that give them publicity. f Siskiyou county towns, particularly Yreka. Mt Shasta and Weed, have been having trouble with the Witnesses for months. Siskiyou News this week reports a story in the. Witness magazine, "Consolation," about the "swell time the religious cultists had in outwitting the author ivies in Yreka." According to tha News, the Jehovah article expressed elation over the death of Vernon Daven port, Mr. Shasta police chief. .suggested that Judge White vacation in a home for the feeble-minded, f It appears from this distance that the Siskiyou folks paid too much attention to the Witnesses, leading to inci dents which gave the cultists a chance to cry persecution and even bring in an attorney of the civil liberties union to make a case for them. ! Nothing will please the Witnesses more than to get excited about them; nothing will hurt them more than to ignore them. White Farmers Doing Good Job FROM two separate sources, we have been told this week that white farmers and laborers, working land formerly farmed by Japanese in California, are doing a superior job. This land is producing wonderful crops, and it is reported that some employers, who thought no one but Japanese could do the production job wanted, have, had their eyes opened. i Ona visitor, here fresh from California, said that the whole theory that Japanese are superior at certain types of farming has been broken down by the experience of the present year, when people of Japanese descent are in WRA settlements such as that at Tulelake, and whites are doing the wartime production job on the land they formerly worked. ;' This is extremely interesting information, and it is reassuring, because the production on the rich lands of California is important to the war effort. It apparently has taken a war td bring realization of the capacities of white farmers and white laborers down there. High-Handed THE public, we believe, is getting fed up-on such auto cratic tactics as those illustrated by a couple of inci dents involving the musicians' union and its president, James C. Petrillo. . Petrillo recently issued an edict that high school mu sicians could not broadcast from their music camp in Michigan, something they have been doing for 12 years. He claimed that union musicians are out of work and non union musicians, not even high school students, will be permitted to go on the air while that condition exists. Such a doctrine, carried to the extreme can blunt the enjoyment of and participation in musical activities by people throughout America, ; The other incident occurred in New York, where the musicians' union refused to permit an orchestra from a New York, show to play at the opening of a Service Men's center. There have been similar incidents where musical organizations were not permitted to participate in pa triotic parades and exercises. Those who have had experience with the local musi cians' union have found it generally public spirited and reasonable. But the national policies as directed by Brother Petrillo are high-handed and extreme and have no place in America.

Always JOe Plus Tax News Behi By RMJL riALLOM WASHINGTON, July 23 The news from the Atlantic shipping front can be traced, in Urge part, to the secret nail develop mentment of a new type of sub' marine. This one crash-dives at an un precedented speed to an unbe lievable depth. Various stories suggest it can drop to a 300-foot level as last as a rock. Apparently it can stand depth of 600 feet, where pres sure Is greater than submarines have been able to venture be fore. These great depths dimln lsh the chance of reaching it with ordinary depth bombs. Also the crafty nazis are using a submarine engine which elim inates electrical batteries. No longer are they required to sur- face for long hours during the night to re-charge their power. On the surface they use a Die sel motor and below they oper ate on a hydrogen and oxygen mixture. This assures them greater security from detection. The. Hitlerites also have come up lately with a new type of magnetic mine, which is sup posed to break through the per fected British defense arrange ment for ships. The British degaussing ar rangement was founded on the principle that copper cables. placed around a vessel, would nullify its magnetism, and en able the ships to pass over mag netic mines without tripping or exploding them. A new German mine apparently penetrates the degaussing protection. These few factors are enough In themselves to make the ship ping situation as bad as all offi cialdom is proclaiming it to be They have become apparent only withm the last month or so. Time will be required to meet them but they will be met. No device of warfare has even been conceived against which ade quate defense was impossible, and none ever will be. . JAP THREAT Heralded recent Chinese suc cesses betray further Japanese efforts to threaten Russia with attack. The Nipponese are withdraw ing or weakening their forces in South China, and concentrating In three areas near the Russian frontier. Their forces In Man churia and Korea have been en larged within the last few weeks. Mechanized equipment has also been moved to these two dis tricts. , A similar strengthening of the Jap garrisons in outer Mongolia also has been noticed. The force in this latter area obviously threatens the Lake Baikal area of Siberia and the trans-Siberian railroad. The Japs would have no great difficulty cutting that road and severing the line of supplies from the Urals to the eastern PMETQEE ENDS TODAY ALSO JACK BENNY in "Keep 'Em Laughing' TOMORROW MEET THE LITTLE MAN WHO ISN'T THEREI ROY T!

CHINA SEAPORTS Those three South China sea ports, which General Chiang Kai shell's vuliunt but ill armed troops recently recaptured, are of little practical use. The Jap navy and air force control the sea and, in effect, maintain a blockade through which our aid to China cannot be expected to move. The new ground gained by the Chinese is-valuable chiefly for air bases from which our air force eventually enn reach Tok yo and the Formosa naval base. But It would be expecting too much to interpret these victories as evidence of anything more than Chinese local successes. The Chinese still have insuffi cient artillery and air power to start a major campaign. So It looks from hero as If the Japanese had decided the THE PELICAN Proudly Presents pjTPTpFI ASSEMBLED IK Billies R .1.1 S'saicoi n in A At 4 ' " 'fr 1 V I TECHNICOLOR SPECIAL: Th only way w can show picture in Klamath Falls now prices.
