Local Offices THERE Is no competition for the city offices to be filled I at the November 3 election, and among county offices only two contests are on the ballot Unlike conditions that have prevailed for many years, there is generally a dearth of candidates for public otuce tnis year. The county offices to be filled are county commis sioner, county assessor and county surveyor. All other county officials hold over for another two years. Three candidates are out for county commissioner, eekinsr to fill the position held the last four years by Jack Benner. They are Mr. Benner himself, Fred L. Pope, Jr., and William F. B. Chase. Mr. Benner is the democratic candidate. In his adver tising, Mr. Benner has complained because of alleged rumors concerning his military status and its effect on his political position, but we doubt if much of this talk has been malicious. Mr. Benner left for the service, spent some time in a military, camp in -Texas, and returned to Klamath .Falls. . According to his published statement, Mr. Benner was a little too old for combat duty, is now 'doing military police work in Klamath county, and has been, released from army' service. Naturally, and justi fiably, considering Mr. Banner's public and political posi- tioiv there was popular curiosity concerning his military status, and the . prospects of his being here to serve if elected to the office. The republican candidate for county commissioner is Fred L. Pope, Jr., a successful rancher of the Fort Klam ath district. Mr. Pope, entered politics for the first time last spring, making a campaign on the slogan, "Sound Business Management." .He was nominated over Jess Johnson, another farmer, in- a close race. The candidate is especially well known in the Wood River valley, where he farms, and in the Merrill district, where the Pope family has lived for along time. Third; candidate for county commissioner is William V. B. Chase, former county commissioner, a pioneer school teacher and former resident of Bonanza. Mr. Chase is running as an independent. In his former races for county eomniissioner,".he was a democratic candidate, i Thftilcandidates for county assessor are Allen Sloan, republican,- and Newton Nelson, democrat Mr. Sloan is a pioneer of this county, and long served as deputy sheriff In charge of tax collections under Sheriff Lloyd Low. Mr. Nelson is in the real estate business here, and has been active in fraternal circles. . Frank Z. Howard, candidate for county surveyor, has jo nununauons 01 Dotn major parties and is unopposed. The city political-situation is amazingly quiet, because there is.ot a single contest for the four offices to be filled. Councilmen Rollin Cantrall, Harvey Martin and jonn jveuer are unopposed. Harold Franey, city build ug moyetwjjr, jo running unopposed lor police judge. News Behi a u iiuuiaivii By RulMLLON MhTlr -iimf W7ASHINGTON, Oct 28 Mr, Willkie's main charaa wii that Russia and China ara not getting the aid they were prom ised, but he did not say why. The answer Is not easy to find. It would be log ical to assume, from what has been announced about our pro duction falling short of our goals, that produc tion Is responsible. No precise figures have been allowed to penetrate the censors. Naturally, these are valid mili tary secrets. But it is known that August production, for instance, was 14 per cent behind the goal set for that month on August 1. July was seven per cent behind its goal. Unofficial estimates have been made that we may fall 25 per cent short of our 60,000 plane goal on the year, and may make only 45,000 planes by January 1. But this deficiency is at least partly attributed to the fact that we switched from much light fighter plane production into heavy bombers, which require many times as much time and material. .

They say that in July and August they were running at three and a half times the pre-Pearl Harbor rate of production. The money is pouring out at the rate of ?s,uuu,ouu,uuu a month for war goods. They will not take the blame. They say the trouble is shipping. The shipping authorities in the government say their end is holding up well, at least the con struction end. Ship production on the year, they say, will exceed their 8,000,000 ton goal, and month by month, they are ahead of their program. But losses, particularly on the Murmansk run-to Russia, have been running particularly high lately. Much material which has left these shores has not arrived in Russia. ' Much more has been lost after It arrived at Murmansk, a cir cumstance for which the Rus sians themselves are responsible. German bombings . have de stroyed dock facilities to such an extent that at. times a score of ships have been piled up in that port waiting to unload, and while waiting, they are station ary targets for German bombs. The way to China is even more difficult, but not for the same reason. All material must be flown In the way Mr. Willkie went, from India, unless he opened up a new skyway through Russia the way he came back. In any event, the only way to reach China is by air. DIFFICULT GROUND Four motored bombers from the Ford plant can be flown off the production line into China, as that plant reaches substantial capacity. But, if China today had all the planes promised, there would still be the question of getting gasoline in there in suf ficient quantities to run them, One hundred bombers would eat up all a pipeline could furnish. These considerations chase tne official answer to Mr. Willkie's charge into difficult ground, where solution will not be easy or quick. No one here will say that suf ficient goods to fulfill promises to both Russia and China have left our shores, but even if it had, the promises would not have been fulfilled. Therefore, responsibility must rest on these several factors- production, shipping losses, Ger man bombings of MurmansK, tne difficult route to China. Democrats Hurt The production level will con tinue to rise, and the percentage of expenditures which is going into construction work will con tinue to diminish. Of the 5,000,000,000 of ex penditures this month and the 6,000,000,000 expected for next month, less than half is now go ing into construction. On the year, the gross total expenditures, they now say, will run over $40,000,000,000, but the rate of production now is around $70,000,000,000 a year. This and the other recommen dations of Mr. Willkie's speech seemed pointedly directed at Mr. Roosevelt questions like Indian independence, the deficiency in distinguished American repre sentatives in the Near East and China. Democrats in congress annar- ently felt hurt that Mr. Willkie traveled around the world under Mr. Roosevelt's auspices and then assumed a critical tone, even after the implied criticism he once received from the White House during the trip. The Willkie suggestion for an extensive and apparently revo lutionary new world order in the post-war world failed to make up tor nis altitude with him. Many of the republicans (silent as far as. official state ments were concerned) Inter preted this suggestion as a re flection of radical New York viewpoint. , While the speech caused much more conversational controversy and few public comments, it cre ated a profound impression ev erywhere here. However, the only point on which a substantial number of congressmen in either party came to Willkie's support was that there must be further clari fication and more specific offi cial indications of what we ex pected to get out of this .war and .that may be coming after election.
