MALCOLM ETLEY Managing Editor Mi EPLEY Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY THE cities' highway revenue bill now before the state legislature, strongly backed by Mayor Houston and other city officials, has run into Highway committee opposition in its consideration by the chamber of commerce. This measure had previously been favored by the chamber's ii legislative committee, and the i board of directors had passed it on to the highway commit tee with power to act favor ably. The latter committee, however, acted unfavorably, and now the Issue goes to the board of directors for final decision. Traditionally, the Klamath chamber has lined up against the cities In their efforts to get more state highway money, on the grounds that state highways needed all the available state highway money and that dipping into those funds for ether purposes sets a dangerous precedent. Mayor Houston is working hard to break the chamber away from that traditional stand. He wants a chamber endorsement of the bill, long with that of the city council and other local groups, to help buck the opposition in the legislature. It can be said he has made more headway than has ever been made before so far as the chamber Is concerned. The highway i committee opposition is a setback to the mayor's efforts, but he will press the cause before the board of directors. Both sides want the directors to keep open minds on the matter, and the outcome should be" Interesting. What is done here may. not have any influence on the action in the legis lature, but it is an issue that has always been taken with seriousness in this highway-minded community. .' Gone From Our Midst AFTER an election in which, incumbents have suffered, you can count on a parade of the licked politicians out of the political unit from which they received previous favors. . It . was good enough for a home just so long as it kept them in public office. Following the 1932 elections, when a lot of office-holders were turned out, there was quite a movement out of Klamath county. It has hap pened after other elections. Now, we learn, ex-Congressman Walter M. Pierce has moved out of the second congression al district,, which sent him to congress for 10 years. He is going to live at Eola, Polk county. There is even a rumor that Mr. Pierce might run for congress two years hence from that district, but it appears doubtful from this corner because of his age. Maybe Mrs. Fierce will be a candidate. Congressman James Mott, of the district in which the Pierces now make their home, is eyeing the seat held by Senator Rufus Holman. ground and covered him with the car hood to keep oft the hot suit. , Presently, a horse rig load of Indians came along. The Indians viewed the situation and upon seeing the driver under the cover, asked what was to their, minds the most logical ques tion: "Did you kill him?" Advertising Roundup By DELBERT ADDISON A PERSON trying to sell advertising in this February, 1943, has the inclination to think that all the forces of nature and man (man s evil nature, that is) have conspired against him. February is generally the newspaper's poorest month for advertising. The January sale, ads, in years when there is merchandise to go at sale prices, are over and not much of the spring goods is in. Gas rationing and heavy weather conditions have cut down the possibilities of im mediate returns to ads from ADDISON the far-away subscribers in the Basin. The store manager is worrying about getting something to sell and somebody to sell it, and about how to comply with the latest restrictions, rather than the means of getting out sales message. fprf SIDE GLANCES i , ' w& cent, iwi y Mt snncr. inc. t. m, mo. u. . f at. ore. ..t ihe xvny our family is growing, prcttv soon we'll have to J have roll call at meals! It must be quite n problem" feeding an army!" All in the Same Boat r HEN you reflect that everybody is in the same boat. The person trying to buy some thing, the merchant trying to get something to sell, the producer worried about man-power . , . all are suffering from one thing, war! And there's one answer to it. Scrape up and buy another Bond! Thai's a big part of the answer, and the rest is to put your own efforts to work at winning the war, as completely as possible. A check through the past week's issues of this paper shows that SO of the hundred odd display ads had some part devoted to the war theme. (A "display ad'' is what we call an ad using pictures or large type to "display" it to the reader.) Each of these 50 ads had a section devoted to urging the purchase of Bonds or explaining how to conserve for war use or information on war restrictions. ' Above this there were five ads in which the advertiser had devoted the entire space to the sale of bonds or some other war need common to us all and having nothing specific to do with his business.

By "being fundamental," I mean that when the day comes to tell a story of lower prices, more goods and new Inventions, then adver tising will flourish as never before, "What does buoy you up is the story from an old, established advertiser which, is taking a war-time licking . . . but, while taking it grace fully, is not taking it mutely or sitting down Tell Your Own Story THIS story is the swan song (until victory) of Budweiser. There will be no more of this beer on the coast for the duration. Bud weiser is doing its bit to clear the rails (for war shipments by foregoing its market here. Budweiser could have crabbed about it, or announced it in a news release to editors, or let the distributor tell it. But it didn't. This company thought enough of the patron age it had received, and looked, forward far enough to its come-back,' to buy a page in this paper and TELL WHY. It told its own story in its own words. This ' ad brought enough admiration that Blitz-Weinhard came back yesterday with a complimentary ad to Budweiser. Both companies are mindful of the good will of the public, you say? Certainly. That's the basis of our American way of doing business. Super-Sensations VE HAVE always been Impressed with the VV- fact that people "are quick to believe in the imminence of some piece of super-sensational news. The fantastic ideas that got around just1 prior to the recent announcement of the Casablanca conference demonstrated that.- An other case in point was the excitement caused the other night by a rumor that Adolf Hitler might be dead. It all started, we understand, over aniad vance radio sketch of a speech given by Joseph E. Davies, former ambassador to Russia. No body said that Hitler was dead, but it was hinted Mr. Davies would say something about it, and, eventually, Davies did say that certain Incidents In Germany suggested the possibility. It was pure speculation on Mr. Davies' part, and he presented it that way. The New York Dally News had made similar editorial specula tion prior to Davies' talk, but admitted it had no inside, lowdown. It is clear that no one outside of Germany has any definite informa tion on the subject, and therefore the presump tion must be that Hitler is alive. We'll do our own little bit of speculation by saying he is alive and not feeling so well. But let us hope his intuitive aDoaratus is Propaganda armies against Russia. Reminiscences WE WERE privileged, the other night, to hear a number of old-timers deep in reminiscence, and their talk turned toward automobiles in early-day Klamath Falls. The first Klamath car, apparently, was owned by Harry Peltz, although Ed Dunham was not far behind. Ed drove the first car around Upper Klamath lake. Mr. Dunham had a lot of trouble with early day speed laws. He told us about the time he started from the courthouse up Main street. There were high cross-walks on the muddy street at Fourth and Main. Ed kept the car in low gear until he got across those jolting walks, but a speed cop ,caught him, just the same) going across the intersection. In the trial, witnesses testified Ed was going from S to 75 miles an hour. He was convicted, possibly because the jury had been carefully made up of local livery stable operators. The fine was $17.50. Another interesting yarn concerned an auto mobile party which attempted a trip on . the reservation, but came to grief when the driver took on. a little loo much firewater. . Otheri la iha car laid ilia driver out on tin THE NEW YORK TIMES published an editor I ial last year which has been widely re printed. A portion of it, on advertising and propaganda, may well be printed again here: "Total war demands the mobilization of the spiritual and physical resources of the entire nation. We in America have never developed or desired the skilled techniques of propaganda which the Nazis have employed to this end. But no other nation in the world has equaled us in the development of the art of adver tising. "Advertising, like propaganda, Is a powerful means of carrying to the people the message of what each man's part must bo in. total, war, But whereas propaganda, by masquerading as news, poisons the free press, advertising does not. "It honestly sets itself off as distinct from the news. Through the revenues it produces it helps to finance at a price to the public that would otherwise be impossible the enorm ous news gathering facilities which produce the modern newspaper. "It is this revenue from legitimate advertising which has made it possible, here and in Britain, to develop and maintain a great free press, in contrast to the system of government subsidies which supports the kept press in totalitarian countries." .

He was sitting at tne counsel table with Rob crt Ford ' o f defense counsel when the jury room buzzer sounded twice, indicating a ver diet naa been reached. Fiynn became visibly nervous now that the decision was at hand. He lighted one cigaret after another, rising from his chair and sitting down again, and talking to Ford. It was a tense moment when Mrs. Ruby Ann Anderson, jury foreman, walked over and hand ed tho verdict to Bailiff Fred Moxom. Moxom gave it to Su perior Judge Leslie E. Still, wno inspected w carefully, then handed it to the court clerk to be read. When tho verdict of acquittal on the first count was read an uproar burst from the packed courtroom, and Judge Still rap pea snarpiy jor order.
