. In a Tight Place
The hardware dealer In Yak'
linn, Wash,, took pen in hnnd to
nun on tho dotted lino. Then he
paused to ask tho traveling sales
man if this patented article had
rvor been on sale In that city
Now the dealer down the street
had once stocked tho line and
tho aulo had been alow. If this
new muii learned that tho sale
had been alow, ho might balk
and refuse to algn.
What would you do? Would
you (ess up that they had been
slow and so risk losing the order
and fifty dollars commission?
Would you, with tho past week
allowing high traveling expense
and few orders? And more-
over, If you were a Sunday
school teacher and claiming to
bo Indwelt by Christ and posses
nor of a higher life, What? Tell
tho truth and risk losing the or
dcr as a Christlun should or
would you put over a llo and
clinch the deal.
The salesman looked tho deal
er-squoro In tho cyo and told tho
He. 11a must mnko sure of tho
money. Said ho, "No sir, the
goods have never been sold in
Yakima." Then ha caino to his
senses. Just a sneak and an
everyday liar, tho traveler saw
himself to be. More than that,
ho was out of step with the Lord
who died to redeem him from
nil sin. Thcro was Just one
thing to do confess all and sec
tho order go Into the discard.
"Excuse me, Mr. Merchant
but I am not tolling tho truth
So and so dawn the street, had
the goods once, some time ago."
And with that tho deal was off
hq far an tho salesman could sec
nut' In splto of it nil and with a
queer look on his face, tho man
signed on the line and lutor on
mailed In for more.
Which counted most? Tho fif
ty nnd moro dollars the salesman
made or to bo back In' step with
his Lord? You know which, If
you 'ever lost out with n close
friend and then had him back
again. Wo believe that most bus
inessmen Inlond to bo on the
miiiaro nnd for a soldier of the
cross to sloop to a llo Is tho
blackest sin of nil, For Chris-
linn Is hero to benr witness. And
lltnt brings up this priceless
truth, God poured himself Into
Jesus Christ. When wo rccolvo
Christ ns Saviour, Christ In turn
Indwells us. God In Christ
Christ In us. By that we be

Andrew Flattum, left, smiles as he recounts his experiences
In war-shorn Norway to County Treasurer C. L. Langslet, an
old friend. Flattum, a citizen of the United States and a veteran
of the last war, was trapped in Norway by the German invasion
whlln on m visit to his mother in
. -. - - -
He returnod as an exchange prisoner on the liner Drottmngholm
?ith 948 ether refyees.
Klamath Citizen Tells
Of Nazi-Looted Norway
A picture of Norway denuded
of timber resources, looted of
dairy products, barren of un
biased news and almost stripped
of even electrical power was
brought here this week by An
drew Flattum, a Klamath citi
zen who returned to America
recently with 948 other ex
change refugees orr the Swedish
liner Drottningholm.
It's a land where there has
been no coffee for p year and
a half; where travel is strictly
rationed and meat is obtainable
but once each month. Where
German soldiers, propaganda
and fish are the only abundance.
Visited Mother
Flattum, a shoemaker by
trade, left Klamath Falls for
his birthplace in Drolsum, Nor
way, to visit his mother in No
vember of 1939. He was there
when the Germans came in the
spring of 1940. And there he
stayed until June 7, 1942.
In a marked Norse accent
Flattum, a short, grey-haired
man with somber face but a
quick smile, said he worked at
his trade for a time in Drolsum
and Oslo. But even though the
firm was German, it ran out
of materials last fall, Flattum
said.
The material shortage is mere
ly an extension of a critical
food scarcity, he related. Nor
wegians must get along on one
quarter of a pound of butter
per week,' one pint of skimmed
milk ner day and a limited
amount of fresh meat once each
month. Flour is compounded
from a mixture of all grains and
isn't what you might call ade
quate, Flattum grinned.; ' .
Beans And Barley ; .
In place of coffee, non-exist
ent since early 1941, Norwe
gians substitute an unpalatable
mixture of beans and barley. 1
But there's no rationing on
fish which requires no planting
and can't be regimented by the
Quisling government, Flattum
recounted.
A restaurant meal of fish, ru
tabaga, carrots, ersatz and cof
fee and perhaps a small piece of
chocolate costs $1. And that's
an iron dollar,- Flattum said and
produced, one to prove it. The
nazis have taken all copper, sil
ver and gold out of circulation
and substituted iron coins and
paper notes.
No Firewood
The little Norwegian said the
Germans have taken all avail
able second growth timber.
leaving no firewood. Electrici
ty in Oslo is turned on only for
two hours at a time during
breakfast, lunch and dinner
hours. Half of Oslo's street cars
are idle for lack of power.
But worst of all, Flattum as
serted, is the complete lack of
reliable news. Everything, he
said, is propaganda.
It took the little shoemaker
nearly a month to reach New
York from Oslo and required
nearly every means of transpor
tation except air. Traveling by
train to Malmoe, Sweden, Flat
tum transferred to a ferry which
took him to Germany. Thence
by train and bus through Ger
many, France and Spain to Por
tugal. At Lisbon ho boarded the
Drottningholm on June 23 and
arrived in New York shortly
nftcr the first of July. ,

an odysscy of nearly 7000 miles
for Andrew Flattum.
"And I'm very, VERY glad
to be back," Flattum smiled.

Heavy-Eating
Workers Cause
Meat Shortage
PORTLAND, July 25 (?)
Portland is feeling a meat short

heavy-eating' workmen,' packers

The workmen, drawing good
wages from war industries, are
demanding choice cuts of beef
and pork, the packers said.
The Portland stockyards said
supply was above average, re
ceipts of both hogs and cattle
being increased above last year's.
