Alloted an exceptionally heavy war savings quota, this county approached the end of July with more than $50,000 to go. By coincidence, this "emergency occurred at the same time the mobile Victory House, designed by Standard of California, was scheduled here for a pre miere showing. The intensive effort put into the whole program for Victory Quota days brought out the crowds and brought out the bond and stamp buyers, the quota was met. Inasmuch as the first showing of the mobile Victory House occurred here, the experiences of the two days here were watched carefully and plans for visits of th mobile unit to other cities were shaped accordingly. It was demonstrated here that home talent enter tainment can be used effectively in such a program, There was unanimous response on the part of those peo- pie asked to supply this entertainment, and it provided a high class program that held interest and kept the crowds at Victory House. So far as bond and stamp sales were concerned, th great success of the event here was the auction. This proved a real stimulant for war savings investments, pro viding fun, competition and valuable premiums for bond and stamp buyers. There was some discussion at Victory House whether people in other towns will respond so generously to this feature. It is true that Klamath folks are free spenders, and on this occasion, where they were not spending but investing, they went to town. Klamath county has no direct war projects. But the people here gave other cities, where there are canton ments, shipyards and other such big enterprises, some thing to shoot at. It was, all in all, a highly gratifying affair. Let 'Em Cry (Astorian Budget) klOW that the supreme court has denied a writ of I habeas corpus to the alleged nazi saboteurs and will permit their trial before a military commission to con tinue instead of giving them the right of tnal m the civil courts, we will probably hear blasts of indignation from the German propaganda factories about our cruelty in depriving them of their rights. The same Germans who would have shot immediately any Americans caught in the same situation will scream loudly at our ruthlessness in trying these saboteurs in a military court despite the fact that they will get a far fairer trial than anyone can get in Germany. The Germans don't keep the rules of war, but they expect their opponents to keep strictly to the letter of the law and they threaten reprisals if it is not done. There was a day when we might have paid some at tention to yelps of protest from naziland about our treat ment of Germans, but that day is done. Let them rant and scream. Their saboteurs will receive due process of law, but they will also receive punishment if their guilt can be proven and it certainly seems obvious. In Germany, let it be remembered, their guilt wouldn't have to be proven. All that would be needed would be for Mr. Himmler to suspect them. Punishment would follow. A decision of the Circuit Court of Appeals for the Ninth circuit ordering the ejection from the Pyramid Lake Indian reservation in Nevada of squat ters who had been usurping In dian lands for as long as 80 years, was reported this week to Secretary of the Interior Har old L. Ickes by John Collier, commissioner of Indian affairs. "An old injustice to these In dians has been rignted," said Commissioner Collier. "This de cision should strengthen respect for Indian property rights in quarters that have too often failed to distinguish between In dian possessions and public lands. That the federal govern ment, through the department of justice and the courts, has thus finally redressed a wrong of long standing committed against a group of desperately needy Indians Is a heartening sign to those who now look to our government to vindicate the freedom of oppressed peoples on a world-wide battlefront." The decision handed down on July 6 reversed a lower court decision upholding the squat ters' position. Prior to the nstl- lutlon of this case, the defend ant land and livestock company had been offered several oppor tunities to acquire the land in question by paying the Pyramid Lake Paiute tribo the fair value of the land in the same manner in which numerous other squatters had acquired title. Upon failure to make the specified payments the com pany's entry was cancelled by the department of the interior In 1936, and tha eviction suit now decided on appeal was in stituted by the department of justice in 1938. The tribal council of the Pyramid Lake Indians and In dian service officials are mak ing plans for the productive use by the Indians of the regained lands. WAR QUIZ 1. This flag, two blue end bands, two white bands and a middle band of red, flies over the first Latin American coun try to declare war on the axis. What country? 2. Here is a tongue twister: Who is Gen Oraja Mikhailovltch? . Buy united slates war bonds and stamps. Ten $18.75 war bonds (maturity value $25.00 each) buy a piece of equipment which may save the lives of 10 people In distress on the high seas. What piece of equipment. ANSWERS TO WAR QUIZ 1. Flag flics over Costa Rica. 2. General Mikhailovltch is head of the almost-legendary Jugoslavian guerrillas, the Chet nlks, who are waging an all-out underground war against the axis In the Balkans. 3. Ten $18.75 war bonds are more than enough to buy a life float for 10 persons cost $185. PORTLAND, Aug. 3 (API- Portland's transportation prob lem will be eased In the near future by leasing of 150 busses from the maritime commission, President Gordon G. Steele of the Portland Traction company said Saturday. WASHINGTON, Aug. 3 Vice President Wallace's board of economic warfare seems to ba folding its wings or the parts that remained after President Roosevelt clipped them in April. BEW Is certainly not flying as high as forecast in its prospectus at the start of the war, when Mr. Wallace's devotees were say ing it would be the big organ ization of the war and post-war world, eventually absorbing WPB and everything else. Instead, WPB has issued or der rio. ia-iii restricting imports, which rather seems to have put BEW down into strictly an ad visory hole. All official WPB and BEW comment on this order is vague. Both claim it had only routine aspects. Before it was issued, however, Mr. Wallace's group had the power for preclusive buying of foreign products, and for order ing other foreign purchases on its own say-so; now it docs not. Import orders are to ba Issued by WPB. Inasmuch as State Secretary Hull succeeded in getting out of Mr. Roosevelt, last April 13, an j executive order affirming his right over BEW, to handle all j foreign affairs of the nation, Mr. Wallace and his little group of ' planners are now in the position : of being free to think but not able to do. They were supposed to plan out and blueprint the overall policy on economic warfare. (Such as buying up foreign cop per before the nazis could get it.) Speeches of Mr. Wallace, and his major domo. Milo Perkins, have been bearing down upon the further-reaching problem of making everybody happy after the war by giving them a quart of milk a day, and other things. Some curtailment in person nel has been noticed in BEW this past month. On July 1, it had around 2000 employees. Au thorities there say they decided to curtail in the interest of econ- omy, but some of the bright young men who have left, say they realized its scope of being limited. . DUEL TO DEATH The major policy row between Price Fixer Leon Henderson and War Labor Board Chairman Wil liam H. Davis reached annoying. but unreported, heights this week. It seemed to develop aspects of a duel to the death with Hen derson convinced there was no use trying to hold down the cost of living if Davis continues in creasing union wages. Mr. Da, vis feels the same way about it In reverse. A decision by Mr. Roosevelt Is expected before the end of the week. COHI. 1W Vr Htk HUVKt, rwfc T, ML W3. tt t. PAT. QfT.

They petitioned officials to turn it in on the scrap drive but were referred to the public buildings administration, which was supposed to have such mat ters in charge. PBA, however, said it was do ing nothing about brass stair rails, and was only collecting om plate boilers and unorna mental iron. The oil stair rails are still there. Newsmen are considering tying them up with a nice little bow of red tape. WHAT TO LOOK FOR This does not relieve you of your obligation to get In all the scrap from your house, where there is no red tape. Excellent publicity is promoting national interest In the drive, but nobody seems to be telling citizens ex actly what to look for around the house. See if you have in the attic an Iron or brass bed; brass or cop per screen, old lamps or lighting fixtures, door knobs, even keys, locks or springs, roller skates, ice skates, sleds, ash-trays, metal vases, old knives, pots and pans, metal fans, electrical cords, old porch or garden furniture. In the cellar, look for old stoves, and Irons, pokers, fur nace parts, faucets, sinks, gar den tools, carpenter tools, any Kind of rubber, tennis shoes, garden hose, overshoes. The Texas primary result dis mayed the White House only privately. Everyone knows an Invisible Roosevelt blessing was on Judge Allred, who resigned a federal judgeship on the White House steps to enter the race against Senator O'Danlel. However. Allred's f r I e n d here counseled against the pres ident doing anything openly to aid Allred's cause, as they thought it might cause an unsat isfactory reaction. Consequently, any regrets that; Allred was THE LUCKY TEN CANNERS On Monday, July 20, the Lucky Ten Canners met at the home of their leader, Mrs. A. J. Stewart.
