Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
INTEREST in industrial development has been
sharply stimulated here in the past few weeks.
There has occurred a growing realization of
, the size of the war-time tim
ber cut, which is approximat
ing 800 million feet annually
in the immediate Klamath
area and perhaps a billion feet
L ' ' in lnat area p suriouna-
V A, in8 fr'Se in Lake county and
Vir' northern California.
' jf Recent purchase by the
vf? ... m:.t
I . weyernaeuser iimoer company
J I " H of a huge stand of timber
1 y from the Long Bell people
Epley seems to have focussed atten
tion, for some reason, upon the future problem
of finding timber for the mills of the Klamath
country.
This transaction demonstrated Weyerhaeuser's
desire to assure a long-time supply of timber
for its great plant here.- The fact there has
been some cutting for other plants in this
timber tract has aroused speculation as to the
future of such operations. The Weyerhaeuser
purchase does not change the over-all picture
of timber resources here. It is the same timber, ,
in different hands.
It does mean, probably, that most of the
great stand of timber in the Yamsay tract will
be i milled in Klamath Falls. Such was the
interpretation made at the time of the an
nouncement of the Weyerhaeuser purchase.
So long as the war-time demand for lumber
continues at the present high pressure, the gen
eral character of the lumber industry here prob
ably will remain unchanged; there won't be
time for changes. But in the future lies a pos
sibility of important changes, refinements and
even expansions, designed to make greater use
of the resources of this area. "
Many of these things are still in experimental
stages, and some of them are. just ideas being
turned over. in men's minds. But progresses
being made hi the laboratories, and even in
practical operations, that indicates what may
happen here when we go definitely into the
business of making the timber resources we
have go farther.
Re-manufacturing processes, such as box mak
ing and moulding manufacture, already started
here, give but a hint of the progress that seems
certain to be made : in more . intensive use ot
our wood resources. Much that is now waste
probably will be used eventually. Timber thai
now is passed by will be picked' up for pro
cessing in . the., future, program.. ., -. . r
These are ideas that form a basis for faith
in the Klamath country and its timber re
sources. They justify the mounting local inter
est in industrial development that will "make
full use of those resources.
News Behind the Nevs
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, -Jan. 14 It is a good thing
thedemocratic, senators closed the door
for their initial- caucus. Only by manipulating
a temporary inside, truce, did
they avoid exposing the shat
tered condition of their senate
majority.
It was indeed the hated iso
lationists who came through
and saved the bruised and bat-
-J tered head of Alben Barkley
as senate leader.
Barkley would have been
defeated for reelection, and
the party plunged into a new
scramble for control, had not
the most outspoken democratic critics of Mr.
Roosevelt's foreign policy, Senators Burton
Wheeler, of Montana, and the two Clarks, of
Idaho and Missouri, undertaken leadership to
reelect him.
Tennessee's Senator McKellar had offered a
resolution providing that the caucus, instead of
Barkley, fill two vacancies on the steering com
mittee, a body which, decides the order in
which legislation is to be taken up. Barkley
took the position this would be an insult to his
leadership and he would have to resign.
It was then Wheeler arose. He said that
while he had fought Barkley over the Roosevelt
foreign policy from 1938 until , the war, the
Kentucky Roosevelt leader had always been
fair. Wheeler plainly told his colleagues that
j
WW
Paul Mallon
SIDE GLANCES
if they fought the leadership issue out now,
neither side would gain.
The two Clarks chimed in their assent, and
the resolution Was defeated by a margin of
only 34 to 20.
The southern democrats were out to get
Barkley, because of his recent enthusiasm for
the anti-poll tax bill. They were able to stop
him with his new-found isolationist support,
however, on only one point.
They kicked out the New Dealer (Senator
Wallgren, of Washington) whom he had named
as secretary of the caucus and installed an anti
New -Dealer, Senator Francis Maloney, of Con
necticut. ' . .
The incident clearly showed Barkley will not
be able to handle the majority on most issues
during the coming session. Blocs (farm, south
ern, isolationist) are likely to do the leaning.
Their Goose Cooked
THE democratic conference sounded like a
republican convention as far as criticism
of the administration . was concerned. Texas'
Tom Connally. said at one point to Barkley:
"You are taking the position that you are
bigger than the caucus when you are the
creature of the caucus. That is the trouble with
these bureaucrats downtown. They are created
by congress and the people and - then they
think they are bigger than the , people who
created them."
Many democratic senators from the north and
west made speeches plainly saying that they
thought their goose was cooked or cooking
for reelection in 1944, unless changes are made.
All wanted a change in everything except
the name of the leader, and this desire will
dominate the upper house from now on.
Lameducks Remembered
k 4R. ROOSEVELT'S initial" appointments took
IVl care of most of the lameducks, but it isJ
not clear vet whether hey took care of the
s j-sS problems at hand.
" Judge Rutledge will
wsmake the New Deal
court majority- seven
!to two, but it is not
known whether he will
join the Frankfurter
bloc or New ... Dealers
of the Black bloc. Per
haps it makes ' little
difference because the
nnlv : margin - between
Sygthe two is that Black
wants to go further
6.i o. Ik and faster 01311 Frank-
ALBEN BARKLEY, iuner.
His Head Saved ' Ed Flynn . . is . not
very popular even with Jfew. Deal democrats,
-who privately expressed distaste for his choice
as ambassador to Australia. . But, after -the
republicans have' a little fun with him, the
democrats will vote for him and no doubt
confirm him. ' -. . "
As for Prentiss Brown in Henderson's place,
the defeated Michigan senator is more popular
in Washington . than apparently even in his
home state. Around the senate, he is regarded
as much less of a New Dealer than Henderson
and a high-class citizen.
Incidentally, although he is. to be in charge
of housing, he has been unable to find an apart
ment for his family. The manager at his form
er apartment house promised to let him return,'
but that manager was' drafted and the hew
one refuses to honor' the agreement.
Brown, is usually diplomatic in his choice
of words, will make fewer speeches than Hend
erson, and more palatable ones.
Military Secret .
YOU have heard little or no" detailed comment
on the amazing $109,060,000,000 budget.
Not much is possible except .the obvious sug
gestions concerning the unprecedented amount.
Particularized ways in which the money is
to be spent could not be disclosed by the presi
dent, because they are military' secrets. No
one, therefore, can surmise how wisely the
money is to be spent or for what.
Indeed, it is impossible to analyze non-war
savings, as a reader of the message cannot know
how much government activity has been trans
ferred to the war side of the books.
Budgets have lost their original purpose in
recent years. They were devised as a method
of effecting economies, but when allocations
are made in grouped round numbers, they serve
more effectively as good war propaganda than
as an indication of plans. .

About Thai Income Tax
l? -
i No. 4
PERSONAL EXEMPTION
Every individual is allowed a
credit against his net income
which varies with hia domestic
status, that is, whether he is (a)
a single person, (b) a married
person living with husband or
wife, or (c)' a head of family.
This credit is known as person
al exemption, and is shown on
line 21 of the return Form 1040.
The amount of the personal ex
emption also varies depending
upon the period during which
the taxpayer occupied the partic
ular exemption status.
The personal exemption for a"
single person is $500 for ' the
year; for a married person liv
ing with husband or wife, $1200;
and for a "head, of family,"
$1200. (Personal exemption as
head of .a family has no effect
on liability to file a return.) For
federal income tax purposes,
widows, widowers, divorcees,
and married persons separated
by mutual consent, as well as
persons who have never been
married, are classed as single
persons. - ' -
A head of family is defined as
"an individual who actually sup
ports and maintains in one house
hold one or more individuals
who are closely connected with
him by blood relationship, rela
tionship by marriage or by adop
tion, and whose right to exercise
family control and provide for
these dependent individuals is
based upon some moral or legal
obligation." A single person, or
a married person not living with
husband or wife, may, therefore,
enjoy a head of family exemp
tion under certain conditions.

From the Klamath Republican
January 8, 1903
The town board met Monday,
allowed bills, sranted three
saloon licenses, and ordered con-1
struction of 500 feet of new
sidewalk in the eastern part of I
town. I
Last Saturday Charles Galar-:
neau was thrown violently from
his wagon when a wheel drop
ped -into one of the holes in
the road a few rods south of
the flour mill.
.
Grading of the Klamath lake
railroad has been completed 18
miles out of Laird's.
Return (which is permitted if
the gross income for the yeur is
$3000 or less and derived solely
from earnings from employment
andor from dividends, interest,
and annuities) obtain personal
exemption based on their status
as of July 1 of the year. Thus, a
taxpayer married and living
witn husband or wife on July 1
is entitled to $1200 personal ex
emption on Form 1040A; if he
were a widower on July 1, his
exemption would be $500, irre
spective of the date on which he
became a widower. The amount
of the exemption is not deduct
ible from the income but is re
flected in the amount of tax
shown in the table on the re
verse side of the form.
Taxpayers using return Form
1040 obtain personal exemption
proportionate with the number
of months during which the par
ticular status is held. Thus, lor
a person who married on July 1
(who was not a head of tamily
prior to his marriage), the per
sonal exemption would be $850
($250 for the six months as a
single-man, plus $600 for the six
months as a married man.) In
this examplo it is assumed that
the wife has no income.
Married persons may, how
ever, mo joint returns, even
though one has no income, and
by filing a joint return a coup!
married during the year may ob
tain an exe: lption amounting to
tho exemption to which they
would bo entitled for the period
of married status, plus the
amount of their individual ex
emptions prior to their marriage.
In the example given the total
exemption in a join return would
be $1100 ($250 for each spouse
for six months plus $600 for six
months married status.)
If a husband and wife living
together both have income and
file separate returns on Form
1040, the personal exemption ap
plicable to a, married person may
be taken in the return of cither
or divided between them in any
way as they may agree, but the
total personal exemption taken
in the two separate returns may
not exceed $1200.
