By Mall la Klamath. Lake, Modoo and Dittyoil CooaUea Three Monthl . Bit Month One Year Welcome, Realtors THE men and women who sell the earth are visitors in Klamath Falls for remainder of this week. They are here for the eighth annual convention of the Oregon Association of Real Estate Boards, an event that has had local realtors busy with preparations for many months. From the appearance of the program, we judge they have done an outstanding job. Oregon realtors have something special to crow about this year. David B.- Simpson, Portland, is president of the National Association of Real Estate Boards, and in his honor, the Oregon meeting has been called the David B. Simpson convention. Mr.- Simpson is making civic club addresses while here, and will address the convention banquet Saturday night. ' In their convention discussions, the real estate people will not only talk about things that have to do with mak ing a better living for themselves, but they will go fre quently into matters that have to do with the general public welfare, such as taxes and property values. When these matters become public issues, one can depend upon the, real estate men for sound contributions to thought and discussion. Realtors have been particularly active in resistance to unnecessary public indebtedness. In this effort, we see eye to eye with them. " So it is to be expected that the eighth annual con vention of the Oregon Association of Real Estate Boards will benefit general, public policy, as well as the real estate business. vi-To these good citizens, gathered in this city for the first time, we voice a welcome we know is felt by all the. hospitable people of Klamath Falls. ' ' . Rumors Refuted CAPTAIN WILLIAM PATTERSON, commander of the ' military guard at the Tulelake war relocation center, has found it advisable to refute publicly certain unfounded rumors concerning alleged attempts at escape from the project properties. The true story that residents of the Newell project are cooperating wholeheartedly and there have been only two harmless incidents concerning attempts to leave the premises -has been told publicly on a number of occasions, and those who persist in spreading these wild tales are committing an unpatriotic and rash act. For certain sound reasons (for the sake of American prisoners in other countries, for one thing) the sympa thetic treatment of evacuees in the WRA projects must be widely realized by the public. Those who spread com pletely unfounded rumors which hint at a false picture of life in the settlement are therefore doing a definite harm that can have serious ramifications. Norway's Democratic King . (Redding, Calif., Record-Searchlight) BRAVE little Norway's democracy and love of freedom are real and intense, and they are nowhere better exemplified than in her king, Haakon VII, who celebrated his 70th birthday yesterday (August 3). King Haakon was drafted to be a Norwegian 37 years ago. He was Prince Carl of Denmark, second son of the then crown prince ,who later became King Frederick VIII. When Norway, separated amicably from Sweden in 1905, her throne, vacant for more than 600 'years, was first offered to a' Swedish prince, who declined; then to Prince Carl. A progressive, democratic man, Prince Carl replied that he would take the throne only if the people of Nor way really wanted him. He insisted on a plebiscite, which voted for a monarchy 259,963 to 69,264. He then took the name of Haakon VII. . . It is no wonder, with that background, that Norwegians revere their king. To his honor and to the honor of Nor way have been added the persevering resistance of king and, people to the nazi invaders. Haakon VII has con tinued to "rule" from London and nas reiusea in any way to compromise with the Germans. Under Haakon's leadership. Norway has lived in peace and has prospered. Norway's democracy and ideals of freedom extended to ner relations wun otner nations, and she never sought to wrest territory or favors from others by force of arms. She was a neutral and a decent citizen of the world when Hitler moved in. Norway, per- hans more than any nation dom, and the help of the rest Bergesch to Direct Entire State WPB PORTLAND, Aug. 6 (VP) J.

Peanut Butter Sandwich Casualty Of Tokyo Bomb Raid NEW YORK, Aug. S (VP) On of the) American casual tin of list April's bombing raid on Japan was pianut butter sandwich. "Our turrit gunner, Sirgt. E. V. Bain, was eating a pea nut butter sandwich," Sergt. Jacob Eterman, flight engi neer ef on of the U. S. planes related yesterday. Everybody- in the plane for got about Bain and his sand wich durins the bombing, Elerman laid, until "on our way back Bain looked at his hand and there It was ooz ing between his fingers." WHERE CREDIT IB DUE The famous musical compost Hon, "The Bee," commonly cred' ited to him. was not written by Franz Peter Schubert, but by another Frank Schubert, a minor composer of Dresden, By PaulMalion WASHINGTON, Aug. "Dear " Mr. Mallon: "My work brings me In con tact with many executives, attor neys and other people, Including elevator operators and janitors. "It has been my ambition to t-? ,.,l j e jm, Int. a g to the confidence and truthful ness being expressed by you and your fellow columnists. "When I read these various columns, I have confidence in you and your fellow columnists' opinions. Upon being asked to express my feelings on certain subjects, I otten times keep some of your ideas In the back of my head. "However, many of my fellow associates make harsh state ments which, at this time show much dissatisfaction with the way many in Washington are doing tilings. "They deem the columnists as being told what to write, and say you just write because you are paid to. Most of them have no respect for the American press at this time, and accuse the Board of Censors of misin forming the people. "Certainly something could be done in defense of our reliable columnists and the American press. You alone could clear this situation up in time by writing an article in defense." (Signed) "CHARLES F. LITZ, "Wilmington, Delaware." Dear Mr. Litz: The syndicated columnists are paid a little by each paper, not a lot by one newspaper or even a group. I think the smallest number of client newspapers publishing any of the national columnists is about sixty. About 250 are publishing my column and these represent every shade of international, economic and political opinion. I, too, have run into the same criticism which you have en countered. A letter from a Colorado read er the other day cuffed me around for writing the editorial viewpoint of his home town paper there which publishes my column. I have never had the pleasure of seeing the paper. Another correspondent ac cused me of trying to get all the democrats kicked out of congress because I wrote the facts about congress delaying the payment to dependent women and chil dren of our fighting men for five months until the day before the coming congressional elec tion. But that same day I received a request from a Democratic Congressional candidate in West Virginia, asking permission to reprint the very same article for his democratic purposes. 1 find it generally evens up that way. The great majority of people can easily see from what a columnist writes, what he is trying to do. A man betrays himself more completely through his writings than by any other means. I have had some suspicions in times past that some new writ ers were trying to present a sub sidized viewpoint or were "be ing told what to write," as you put it, either by the government or by some invisible parties, but they did not last very long. It takes an unusual personal ity to write convincingly and interestingly about something which he himself does not be lieve. If a writer, himself, does not believe what he is writing, he will never make many others believe it, and his writings are therefore unimportant. You can see from the manner in which the columnists work and are paid that they could not attempt to present the editorial judgment of their papers. It is physically impossible to obtain or read that many papers. I have never seen most of my Da tiers. The government cannot be said to control more than a handful. If any, newspapers. Therefore, it cannot pay column ists in anything except personal favors, and few successful Journ alists here want favors that bad. They generally want to sell more newspapers and mane more money. The idea that the government tells us what to write and pays for it therefore cannot be gener ally true. No columnist that I know of, submits his articles 10 the censors. We know what are military secrets and avoid their use. The fact that this situation exists in the newspaper business is a great tribute to the Amer ican press, the greatest perhaps. In itself, it offers Incontrovert ible proof of the fairness and im partiality of the press as a whole. Here you have hundreds of WANTED!

OREGON SIDE GLANCES Iff 4a1 coea. iwrraw aiavicl. we. T. n acq u, it "If I was sure she hud on leg makeup ralher than hose, I'd certainly tell her how disgraceful I think it is !" papers all through the country, each with its own sharp individ ual editorial viewpoint, express ed by its publisher or his local editorial writers, willing to open its columns daily to columnists (ar away in Washington whom they do not know, and who fre quently express judgements con flicting with their own. It is a fine example of de mocracy in action and the de mocracy of the press, that news papers thus present all view points to their readers, while maintaining their own in their editorials. The growth of the syndicated column, thus shows conclusively that the American press is not only constitutionally free, but practices freedom. Yours sincerely, PAUL MALLON. WAR QUIZ 1.
