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?

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
