PAGE TEN HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON GAS RATIONING PACKS KLAMATH i BUSES TO TOP It'g an 111 wind that blows no food and In the case of Klam th's bus service, gas rationing has upped patronage where ve hicles are crowded to the gun wales and the 4 to 6;30 run is something in the way of passen gersl . R. C. Sugg, manager and own er of the Klamath Bus company, said no change had been made in schedule of the bus line which particularly serves residents of the suburban area. A change was made a short time ago on the Sunday schedule. Equipment Troubles A gradual increase in patron age was noticed several months ago and has been stepped up more than 25 per cent over nor mal, Sugg stated. The late af ternoon buses, which take care of weary shoppers, and the 6 and 6 o'clock buses which carry working men and women, are usually up to capacity load. In 12 years of operation, Sugg ob served, the line has not been called UDon to serv the number of patrons which now use the buses. Worry over equipment Is one of the major problems in operat ing the local bus company which serves as do street cars and in terurbans in other cities. No new equipment is available, all that sort of stuff frozen some time ago. Five buses are now in operation and the usual run is around 600 miles per day. Longest ru-i is out Shasta way and Madison street, 6.4 miles, Sugg stated. Highest patronage comes from the area where mo torists would soon consume their four gallons of gas after a couple of trips to town. Humorous Side When bus loads are heavy, drivers are naturally behind schedule and the usual patron is a very "accommodating fcl- low," willing to wait or take a second bus, realizing that the company is working under war time conditions. On the humorous side Is the fact that with the increase in bus riders, lost and found articles are also on the up. Plenty of lunch buckets, lots of gloves and um brellas, many small packages, bags of candy, and even a bag of electrical fixtures, have been picked up recently by the drivers and turned over to the office, There is a box containing some 50 purses abandoned on the bus line, Sugg stated, and almost all articles are called for but the purses! Sacks of coffee used to be left on the cars, but in the past few weeks not one pound of coffee has been turned in. Schedule Residents who have been used to driving their own cars but now find the buses more convent ent, were advised that cars leave Fifth and Main streets every 20 minutes, those operating on the "20-minute periods," such as 6:20, 7:20 etc., use the Altamont route which goes out as far as LaVerne avenue, . .-turns out South Sixth to Idella's store where it turns around and comes back to town. Buses operating on the hour go out Shasta way and make the "complete circle," out South Sixth, down Shasta, along Madison and turn at Ber tha s store to return to town on South Sixth once more. The 40-minute" buses operate on the Idella's store run, going along soutn 6ixth to Idella's and re turning from that point.

There seems to be a scarcity of big sisters, which Is explained for the most part by the fact that a great number of the girls are working during and after school. A number of sophomore and junior girls have volunteered to relieve the shortage. The list was mado out by Dean Ham ilton and Dorothy Rings," presi dent and vice president, respect ively, of the Big and Little Sister club of the Girls' league. i ADVANCED MILITARY BATON ROUGE Jack Ful kcrson, Francis Zlck, Woodrow and Pershing Holland, Willie Miller and Sonny Richardson of the Louisiana St.ite football team become second lieutenants in the army In May.

It should lift the chin and - put a new spring info humanity's step. The President of the United States said that we are fiohting for four freedoms:Freed-m from want and freedom from fear; freedom of soeech and freedom of reliaion. A former Presi dent of the United States, Herbert Hoover, has added that fifth freedom Is also mandatory In the victory: Freedom of economic enterprise. Until verv recently most Americans concerned themselves put little about this fifth freedom. They seemed to have considered this an inviolate riqht. something which they nave alwavs had and somethino which alwavs would be theirs, and therefore have systematically refused to heed the warning siqnals telling of gathering clouds and danoer. Today this danger promises to be a menace unless turned back and destroyed. This attest nn our free enterprise system beaan many years ago. While seeminglv smouldering for long periods of time its pro"nent were alwavs actively olannina. This enemy to our old established system of enterprise Is better known as "State Socialism." Its soonsors ehoe the utility Industry for its first victim. The success or failure of their early efforts Is recorded by the growth of private ownership during the period up to 1930. Beginning with that year a new imoetus was aiven them In the reform meas ; ores fostered and'or enacted by the federal government. More recently the emergencies created by the war have forded further opportunities for the advancement of their Ideas. Today the excuse Is that these things are all essential to the winning of the war. Call it bv whatever name you choose, be as charitable as you wish, there Is no escaping the fact that we, as a nation, are definitely headed toward some form of State Socialism . - unless we, as a people, stop the surge and Join In the restora tion and maintenance of our democratic way of life. These social planners contemplate that the foil control and develop ment of the resources of this land shall not be by the people, but Instead by the state. ,. America has been developed by Its peonle, not by Its gov ernment. Notwithstanding this faking of the lob away from the people and putting It In the hands of their government Is actively proposed In the nation where the success of our established oronram for utilizing natural resources has been unparalleled In human history. It means the breaklna away from the free enterprise system and the substitution of State Socialism. History clearly reveals that such a system, once It has gained headway, knows no stooping. It reaches out for more and more control until it has grasoed evervthlnn and then only revolution from within or ennouest from without can end if. It carries with It an ever decreasing standard of living. : America, the land of free enternrise, a system that hat brought about hi highest standard of l.'vlna for a whole nation that the world has ever seen, is being offered yes and Is having thrust noon if the lwer standards of economic well being 0t older Eiirtoean and Asiatic nations. 14 SocIa,isffe planners arrooate to aovernment ageneles wisdom, comoetence, lofty nnrnose and exe-"Mon far above tMt wn.-h has rharaet,id free enterprise.
