One Vfur Get in the Serep IXLAMATH county is asked o provide 2000 tons of l scrap metal by December 81 as our part of the nation wide scran salvage campaign. This effort is of tremendous importance, and as in the war bonds and scrap rubber programs, we anticipate that Klamath county will come through. What is needed is the establishment of scrap collec tion centers, so that all who veniently. Progress along this line has been made, with the designation of receiving centers at a number of im plement firms in the city and county. Communities can be helpful by designating receiving centers at schools or elsewhere, and individuals have the scrap picked up by implement dealers on regu lar runs. The thing for us all to do now is to get the scrap together, find out how best Ui immediately. Although Scrap metal has already been gathered m this county, there are still tons and tons of it lying around. Tents and Cantonments ; (Bend Bulletin) THERE has come from Washington a semi-official an- I nouncement that the war department will locate no cantonments hereafter north of the latitude of Sacra mento. The reason given is that because of the great demand for lumber there is which to build cantonments hew camps will be by means of tents with wood floors. Such tents, it is said, are usable only in milder climates. Therefore, the forced decision to keep the camps in the south. There will be no tendency, we think, to criticize any decision of the army authorities the purpose of which is to assure proper living conditions for men undergoing army training. One may wonder, however, whether tent housing is so packed with hardship as to be unendurable in colder regions. "Unendurable" is not exactly the word to use for, of course, better conditions must prevail than those that simply can be endured. Let the question be phrased as whether the use of tents in regions north of Sacramento is too unsatisfactory. Apparently it is else the decision would not have been made and yet tents in tle warmer climates have objectionable features, too. ' The most important aspect of the whole matter, we would suppose, has to do with training. These camps are for training for the service in any part of the world. Battles will be fought on fields that are at another lati tude than Sacramento's. Are the authorities wise when they plan to train only in localities of selected climate? imsssmm fiMiiSliillWilllW !!i!i!iii!!l!iil!i!iipl lllSiilliijjlliiiilifii 1 1 llllll! jli illljlli'lilll'lfll'li!! rfflrtil!!!l!lHli!!:::Wi;!yeor From the Evening Herald ' Aug. 10, 1932 The Lakeview Examiner re ports that when the Chewaucan river was diverted into the new canal near Paisley, tons of fish were left on the marsh to die.

The Olene Land and Live stock company has imported two of the celebrated sheep herders of Basque. They eat, drink, sleep and herd sheep in English, but do their thinking and talking in Basque. From the Klamath News August 10, 1932 A grass fire caused a $4000 loss to E. I.

Japanese Moved To South Idaho From Puyallup PUYALLUP, Aug. 10 (Pi The first contingent of Japanese technicians and laborers a party of 200 is expected to arrive at Minidoka, in southern Idaho, today to prepare for the arrival of the other 7,000 who have been interned at the assem bly center on the western Wash ington Fair Grounds here for threo months. The remaining Japanese Will be sent to Minidoka before the end of the month and the grounds returned to the Fair as sociation. At Minidoka the in ternees will remain for the dura tion. Residents at the Assembly Center, called Camp Harmony by the colony, expressed satis faction at being moved because they now know where they will be for the remainder of the war. SB WASHINGTON, Aug. 10 Be- lit.. trtA0A....( t rl . to write his veto of the farm bloc's rubber bill, he was ad vised by his congressional lieu tenants that he must make some effort to satisfy farm anger or his veto would bo over-ridden. This, no doubt. Is at lp9t one reason why the president named an impartial and aggressive man like Bernard Baruch to head an inquiry into his own WPB's rub ber policy. The congressional leaders thought that without some such concession by the White House, they could not quell the con gressional rubber stampede, Their quelling efforts were fur ther aided by the fact that con gress is in virtual recess until September, and many adminis tration representatives were ready to change their votes for the sake of avoiding a dis-unify-ing action if provided with a rea sonable out. One who did not change was Senator Gillette, who has been telling friends for some days that he has uncovered leads in his sub-committee rubber inves tigation which will make a big ger explosion than Teapot Dome if proven true. AMPLIFICATION Readers have wired or written suggesting further explanation of the points set forth in my let ter of August 4th to Mr. Daven port of life in response to his question: If you were president, wnat would you do immediately to improve the war effort and make more certain of victory?" The ideas were too tersely pre sented, they complained. First point was that I would switch the armed services and all Washington from their de fensive mental attitude and bring up to the top cool men of scientific action. One idea I had in mind is that our best soldier, General Mac Arthur, is practically wasting himself in Australia preparing for an attack which is not ex pected. There may be others just as good as MacArthur in this army, but no one has yet shown his aggressive spirit, and none can equal him in actual fighting experience. I believe he should have the ships and bombers to fight his way back up to the Philippines or be transferred where his tal ent to fight can be used, say, to the coming second front. MacArthur may have dramat ic mannerisms, as they say, but this criticized phase of him shows he is the best type to lead combat. He may be exceptional ly broad breasted, but he fights. Everyone knows our armed services tend to be clublike in their cloisters. Men are too oft en measured by seniority and congeniality rather than fight ing spirit. It is no criticism of many fine army and navy men, now playing decisive roles, to ay their talents are suited to peacetime administration. Only the president of the United States can cut down through this historic tradition and pluck out the cool imagina tive daring men we need. Per haps a complete change of tone could be effected with compara tively few job switches, if em phasis was sternly placed on tal ent and brains from the top. Three years of bitter mistakes came before Lincoln found the right type of men. In the last war, which was confined to trench battering of a single front, a man with superior abil ity in administrative detail and diplomacy was needed. This time we are facing global war, with no trenches anywhere and new types of fluid fronts are being successfully pressed against us everywhere. This is primarily a war of strategy, not of administration. The situation requires genius, nothing less. This looks too much like the Hollywood war from our stand point so far. Other points in the Davenport letter will be taken up in suc ceeding columns. HEALTHY Congressmen are particularly irked at WPB by evidence of the black market in steel. The Tru man committee received reports privately about the situation months ago and notified WPB. It seems WPB penalized some firms for violating priorities, but the congressmen now say WPB action was not sufficiently vig orous to stop the stealthy law violations. Mr. Roosevelt's generous ges ture in transferring a subchaser to Queen Wilhelmlna when this particular type of ship is most needed in the Atlantic and Ca ribbean, where we wage a los ing fight against nazl subs, has caused uninformed people to ask questions, especially as the Neth erlands has no merchant marine how heeding" subchaser protec tion.
