- School'! Attitude
i ''Stoll learned of the attitude
of Klamath school districts tow
: ard the labor problem at a con-
.ternn FVirtfty, p wm- vmty
; .School Superintendent Fred Pet
person said that even if it were
i '-necessary to close schools for an
( "entire term, the work experience
' would be worthwhile for the stu
dents and the action should be
taken In behalf of farm produc-
AVAILABL
tion and the war effort. The
" U. S. employment chief describ-
ed this as a "fine demonstration
' of patriotism."
: Schools will open at the end
i of tliis month, but will be closed
: in . agricultural districts if an
emergency requires school pupils
! to fill a gap in labor ranks. Both
i' city and county schools have
agreed to this program.
Geurts - announced that the
;FSA will immediately open a
i (mobile camp at Tulelake, to pro
vide housing for workers. Camps
at Merrill and Matin will be
' opened toward the middle of
a September.
"" He said that the Merrill camp
will occupy the Merrill CCC
camp north of Merrill instead of
the old mobile campsite adjoin-
it ing the town.
. It was stated that when these
- camps start, the U.' S. employ
f menfr service will place agents
fc there to be certain that the'
; camp occupants get to jobs 1m
J mediately.
- The FSA will operate. in the
, Klamath basin under the Port-
. land office jurisdiction, consider-
ing the "entire basin one area re
. gardless of the state line, Geurts
k said. ; Recruiting of labor for
this district will also be on the
si basis of a single area, it was
6 stated by Stoll. ;
Klamath potato growers will
f' probably meet within a short
time to get their organization
going again after a period of
comparative Inactivity. The era
3 ployment officials emphasized
that.it is necessary for grower
r organizations to. be in operation
in order to carry out essential
parts of the, labor supply pro-
gram.
A present major reason for
' organization work will be the
" 'establishment of an adequate
wage that will serve to attract
workers Into the region. An or-
ganizatioh- likewise can be ef
I' fective-lnv obtaining tire allot-
ments for farm use, sacks, priori
ties on machinery, and dealing
' with other-vital matters, it was
J stated.''-"1-'-- '
Henry Semon, chairman of
J the county farm labor committee
, and president of the potato grow-
ers association, said at the con
! ference that it is imperative for
farmers to begin thinking about
providing more housing on their
iown ranches for farm workers.
;; On Friday, the employment
I officials, draft officials, and the
J farm labor committee met tn the
4 offices of County Agent C. A.
Henderson for a consideration of
j the entire problem. Stoll's an

Training Plane
Being Repaired
After Accident
A primary training piano,
damaged in Friday's accident on
the municipal airport, was be
ing rapidly repaired Saturday
and was expected to go back in
to service immediately, accord
ing to City Airport Manager
Louis Soukup.
This plane figured in a ground
collision when a Taylorcraft,
flown by Byron Dlskin, swung
into the primary trainer at the
edge of the north-south runway.
Manager Soukup said the Taylor
craft was badly damaged and
might not be restored to service.
Diskin was slightly hurt in
the crash. Occupants of the oth
er plane, were uninjured.

BASES, SHIPS
(Continued from Page One)
Japanese fighter planes were
shot down and Ihreo damaged.
All allied aircraft returned to
their bases although some were
damaged slightly. ,
Lints Protected
Meantime, naval units pro
tected the allied communication
lines and escorting supply vessels
to the occupation forces and the
army and shore based aircraft
continued to attack the enemy
air bases and harbors, the navy
reported.
Outcome of the battle for the
island bases wag expected to de
cide whether the Japs retain the
stepping stones to attacks on
Australia and New Zealand or
whether the United Nations at
tain a base for futuro offenses
against enemy positions.
Further indication of the pro
gress in the Solomons came from
an English war correspondent,
who cabled his London paper
from Sydney that the Americans
"have or soon will have com
plete control of Tulagt Island," a
major point of attack.
So strongly entrenched were
the marines, he added, that only
"the heaviest reinforcements"
could dislodgo them. At the
same time, he declared that the
Japanese apparently were pre
pared to risk a big naval action
to hold the Solomons and the
fighting would continue for
weeks.
"The navy's statement on the
conflict was that:
"The task of consolidating the
shore positions now held by
United States marines In the
i Solomon Islands is progressing
satisfactorily.
"Naval units are engaged In
protecting our lines of communi
cations and escorting supply ves
sels to our occupying forces.
"United States army and alli
ed shore-based craft are continu
ing to attack Japanese air bases
and ship concentrations In
enemy-held harbors."
