PERHAPS you're a little confused by the war
(savings and victory loan campaigns coming
together this month, but don't let it bother you.
The important ming is 10 ouy
all the government bonds you
can buy in the forthcoming 30
days. Any purchase made will
help make the campaign a suc-
ft ' i , cess and will help Klamath
l pnuntv make its ouota in these
drives.
But here, briefly, Is the
story. War savings, which are
carried on regularly, ara In
tended particularly to appeal
to waee earners, and to obtain
loans for the government out of regular earn
ings. The victory loan Is intended, in particular,
to wake up sleeping funds, such as large private
funds, funds of corporations and public bodies,
etc., and get them busy working for the gov
ernment and the winning of the war.
The two committees war savings headed by
A. M. Collier and victory loan headed by G. C.
Blohm are instructed to work together with
the chairmen acting as co-chairmen. The only
difference this month is that the public Is urged
to buy bonds even more heavily than usual,
and in excess, if possible, of regular purchases
through payroll deductions.
Labor and Service
UNION labor, which undertook the big Job
of putting war savings over in Klamath
county in March and April, will go right on
leading the campaign in April, and the objec
tive is to put Klamath county's purchases over
the $500,000 mark for the two months. That
fund will buy a sub-chaser for Uncle Sam.
Probably because March was the month for
paying heavy federal Income taxes, the cam
paign lagged a bit behind schedule. But in
creased purchases in April can bring it up to
the goal set, and that is what is urged upon '
Klamath county people. Union labor, inci
dentally, deserves the wannest appreciation for
undertaking this patriotic endeavor in the most
difficult financial period of the year.
It is hardly necessary again to explain the
whole purpose and function of war bond pur
chases. The people of this county have shown,
through regular and heavy bond buying, that
they realize the vital importance of this pro
gram in winning the war and in fighting off
inflation.

Harry Ackley, pioneer lumberman who
passed away last weekend, was one of the men
who helped to build this community. He was
less active in community affairs in later years,
but he always had the welfare of Klamath
Falls at heart. A wide circle of friends mourn
his passing.
By DeWitt MtcKenile
VISCOUNT HALIFAX, British ambassador to
Washington, who speaks what he thinks
very freely, made the interesting prediction
during the week
end down at
Sheffield, Ala
bama, that "when
the German war
machine begins
to crack, a great
part of it may go
at once, and the
end may come
more suddenly
than some of us
thought six
months ago."
Right here It
should be e m
phasized that
HALIFAX Lord Halifax
wouldn't venture a guess as to the probable
length of the war, and I'm not commenting on
his prediction for the purpose of suggesting
that the end is at hand. On the contrary, we
have a bitter struggle ahead of us. The ambas
sador explained thus:
"We know that Germany is under great stress
in her man power. She has suffered huge losses
in Russia, and she is finding it increasingly
difficult to keep the conquered countries in sub
jection. "In whatever direction you look, you see that
strain growing in Germany. Her war machine
is so delicately balanced that when the stress
and strain become too great, and the first crack
occurs, a great part of the machine may go."
Lord Halifax knows his Germany well, and
moreover past history supports his idea. The
German machine went to pieces suddenly in
the last war. Then there was a crack of morale
both in the fighting forces and among the
civilian population. That civilian morale is of
the utmost importance for when it gives way,
the whole machine is likely to collapse.
Nazi Morale
OF late the naz! authorities have been show
ing uneasiness over public morale. Evidence
of this is found in the broadcasts for home
consumption which are picked up py listening
posts in this country.
Hitler and his minions have been coddling
public morale by withholding the truth. For
instance, the people have no idea of their huge
losses on the battle-fields, because we've heard
the fuehrer himself lie like a trooper about
casualties in his speeches. Then thousands upon
thousands of wounded soldiers are being cared
for in hospitals outside the reich, so that their
home folk don't know what goes on. In like
manner the nazi setbacks in the fighting are
camouflage.
The German people were fed all sorts of
bunk in the last war until they learned the
truth. Then they cracked. The same thing is
happening now through the loud mouth of Pro
paganda Minister Goebbels. By the way, I've
heard him harangue a crowd of fifty thousand,
and you've got to hand It to him as a soap-box
orator. He certainly can spell bind 'em.
But he can't make his lies stick forever. It's
the truth that will crack the morale of the
Germans the knowledge that no matter how
long they hang on they haven't a chance to
win. There are some things Goebbels can't con
cealfor instance, the fierce bombing of Reich
cities which continued over the weekend.

It Is rcliablv rpnnrlnH Dial
the railroad, which has built
from the main S. P. line to
Pokeeama in the mnuntnlna
southwest of here, will be push
ed on to Klamath Falls. This
Is a logical development.
The route to Klamath Fnlla
is comparatively free from
neovy graces, rne limner near
upper tviamam lake and along
Wood and Snraeue rlvprs ran
be floated to this point. Boats
can accommodate the traffic to
an extensive area north of here,
and boats also can ply from
Klamath Falls to a point near
Morrill.
At the juncture of the lakes,
on a river furnishina unexcelled
power, surrounded by substan
tial natural resources, this Is
the central, natural and advan
tageous point for a railroad to
strlko.
