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

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.
