This remark cm favorable imnression at the What Dr Strand said in effect is that he is not inter ested in trying to "do something" about some old sore Doint between the college and the university.

We liked Dr. Strand's views and his outlook on the future. He intimated on one occasion in his talk that perhaps he would not stay in Oregon long because of his attitude toward cherished controversies. From what we heard, we would say that is a good reason for keep ing him in Oregon. . Making Headway "THE payroll allotment committee of Klamath county, ., I acting under the direction of Vern Owens, vice-chairman,' has the best payroll allotment record by far in the state." , . . The above sentence is taken from a letter sent to county war savings workers throughout the state by For rest Cooper, deputy state administrator. It is a matter of satisfaction, not oniy xo wr, uwens, uut, m cva, Bon in Klamath county who is participating in war savings on a payroll allotment basis. ! It is a matter of gratification to this newspaper, not only because it is proud of Klamath county and its con tribution to every patriotic endeavor, but because it has had a small part in this particular effort. Mr. Cooper states that "one thing that has helped Vern and his committee has been the willingness of the Klamath Herald and News to publish a list of all firms which have installed the payroll allotment plan' on a jo per cent basis. ' ' This newspaper is happy If our "honor roll lists have helped to increase 10 per cent participation, but VltAtiA lidfa haiTo Kaon n extra an H well worth the nrintine WtUOO " .. w, ....... - M such. We now anxiously await the opportunity to print the news that Klamath county has gone over the top with 100 per cent participation on a 10 per cent basis. That is now the state goal 10 per cent or more of the income of every family in war savings bonds. How Censorship Works 10. WEATHER - (Tenth of b Series) The voluntary censorship code requests that only the most restricted information regarding weather forecasts or weather conditions be published, and that none of this Information be broadcast excent in extraordinary United States weather moves from east to west with a few variations. MeteoroloKV has advanced to a point where scraps of current weather information from as few as three well-separated western points can supply the basis for excellent forecasts of to morrow's weather in the east. It has long since been established that meteorologists serve as senior officers on enemy naval craft in the Atlantic. A few drops of rain at El Paso, high winds at Kansas City, and a snowfall In Detroit will indicate to enemy ships which parts of the coast will have rough weather or fog Radio is under a more stringent restriction than newspapers on Questions of weather because tion is instantaneous. Many American broadcasting stations can easily be heard off shore. cl.n!;.. .JinnMniMl In tDMthmr f nrm ctin will fieht on our side only If we refrain from Dealers Cut Delivery of Butter on Coast by Half By WALTER WARREN SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 20 (P) Butter is so short on the Pacific coast that dealers have cut their deliveries to retailers In half. The army and navy have had trouble getting enough butter here. Both are reported to be putting pressure on dealers to ell more liberally even talk ing of requisitioning. Counter-Pressure Cause of the shortage Is the In ability of west coast dealers to make their usual purchases in the midwest. This area buys half its butter from the midwest this month. The only supply ar riving was a: . couple of cars, bought and stored there during the summer. Dealers have responded to pressure of the military with counter-pressure. They have suggested the government go where the butter is produced to get the huge supplies the army and navy need. Huge purchases here, the dealers say, cut into Managing Editor . r.u -. -v tM .

Rationing Talk, Demands on the dealers from retailers went up rapidly this week as the trade discussion of the shortage spread word of the scarcity. Rationing talk was in the air, but plans admittedly discussed in office of price administration circles laid out no near term action. Official indicated no ra tioning could be expected before general purpose ration books come out some time after the first of next year. The way things, are shaping up right now, it looks like there will be many a Thanksgiving table hereabouts with turkey but no butter.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20 Ad vocates of a global state, or a purified world in unity, after the war, are chirruping louder now but it is evident that more authoritative spokesmen and more tangible facts already are salting down their plans. Behind recent events, it Is ob vious that the post-war world is going to be fixed by negotia tion, based on conditions (eco nomic, financial and political) prevailing a t the end of the war, rather than by the hopes of American ideal' ists or Europe's democratic refu gees. For instance M r . Churchill announced h e was not con- Paul Mallon ducting B r 1 1 ain's war to accomplish the dis memberment of the British em pire. A shocked answer to the prime minister was given not by any statesman of the world who will be at the peace table, but by one who has no official position which would take him there, Mr. Willkie. The world statesmen were silent. Similarly, the American of ficial devotees of global unity are making moving speeches on the subject, but Mr. Roosevelt, who will have the final say, has contented himself recently with advocating the practical Philip pine system of establishing inde pendence among smaller states by mutually acceptable short, sure, progressive steps over years and decades. i MUTUAL AFFAIR Mr. Wallace, the V. P, Thomas Mann, the greatest liv ing literary artist; Archibald Macleish, the political poet lau reate, and others of that wing, are crusading among the- intel lectuals of this country In favor of eradicating every selfish im; pulse, in the future world, giv ing everyone In the world . a quart of milk a day. and mak ing all nations live hereafter in some form of selfless, God-lov ing state, yet unsystematized in their minds. They even promoted a new bill of rights last Sunday, It was issued by the national resources planning board, and contained such unspectacular suggestions as "the right to work, to fai pay, to eat," etc. The New York Times played it back on page oi. utnerwlse, it was also gen erally unnoticed. From all this evidence, it is clear Messrs. Willkie, Wallace, et al, have neglected to note the primary necessity for success of their cause. They forget unity is a mutual affair. PRACTICAL PEACE Any kind of unity, slobal or otherwise, must be a genuine, freely entered agreement by all participating sides, unity can not be imposed by one party on another (unless .you mean the kind of unity Hitler gave Czechoslovakia). It is plain our victorious peace is not going to be written by Mr. Wallace, or even by Mr. Roosevelt but at a table where Churchill, Stalin, Chiang Kai- anek and others will sit. wmie Messrs. Willkie and Wallace agitate, Mr. Churchill pledges himself to maintenance of the British empire (including xnaian ana otaim ah. yes. Stalin, whose democratic ideals were lauded by Mr. Wallace. speaks not a word about democ racies, or Atlantic charters, or mils of rights, or Russia's plan for post-war. He did not send anything to the New York Herald-Tribune forum. WALLACE'S WOULD Apparently, we we good Americans are the only na tionality in the world talking about building international TVA's, international banks, giv- lng a quart of milk a day, "glo bal states," "world unity." No one else is. All Chiang wanted at the New York Herald - Tribune forum, for instance, was the right to run his own country. All that Queen WUhelmina wanted was "Justice and firm ness tempered by wisdom." If Mr. Wallace, theoretically. was able to .effect the kind of unity he talks about, under these circumstances, it would not be unity, but paternalism American paternalism over the world, with our money, the pa ternalism in which "papa pays the bills," but does not neces sarily have the love of the chil dren. In truth, their world would not even be democratic, but more empirical than ever world in debt to papa. Norman Thomas, who, though a social ist, has his eyes open, calls them "totalitarian liberals." . Thus are the prospects for post-war settling down upon the bases of reality and fact, far aside from the flights of fancy HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON SIDE GLANCES com, mi wy u awvrct. wc. c u. T. M. A three-rib roasl? .Why. you're the biggest niece of beef I've seen in this shop for two months, and those big steaks 1 used to sell you haunt nic in my drcnmsl of our most audacious hopefuls. Thus, it is now apparent, the peace and the better world hereafter will be defined by compromise and mutual accept ance, rather than what any of bur boys think and want. FORECAST The consultations will be be tween the U. S., Britain, Russia and others and the conclusions (to endure) must be mutually ac ceptable to all. Our gifts of quarts of milk will be limited by the size of our debt. Our bestowals of free dom will be limited by what the world wants and will take. True, the war is yet to be won, but' here at least, is the beginning of concrete under standing as to what it may bring. This is not at all discour aging to anyone who has real ized that men are not yet di vine, and that progress erected on stilts is bound to fall. . It forecasts a more realistic, and, therefore, more lasting and genuine peace than we have been hearing about. It's Cold, But The Record Is Still Unbroken How cold was it Thursday morning?

It was the first day this week the Associated Press average of 60 stocks was able to finish with advance. Transfers were around 600,000 shares. Among stocks registering now highs for the year were Gillette, Dome Mines, Pepsi-Cola and Hecker products. In front most ot the time were American Tele phone, Santa Fe, N. Y. Central, Great Northern, western union, U. S. Steel, Bethlehem, General Motors, Chrysler, International Telephone, Homestake Mining, DuPont, Scars Roebuck, Mont gomery Ward, Standard Oils of Indiana and California and In ternational Harvester.

Bilbo told a reporter of the development while Senator O'Mahoney (D-Wyo.) told the senate that the measure to abol ish poll taxes as a prerequisite to voting in federal elections would change the fundamental constitutional law illegally. OMahoney spoke with the consent of the filibustering southern members, interrupting a speech which' Bilbo started yesterday, and the southerners hold a strategy conference at which the new decisions were reached to plan for debate to continue until the measure dies with adjournment of the pres ent congress.
