DISTRIBUTION of "surplus" Income tax
money to the schools, much-discussed Issue
in the lRst election es well as in the legislature,
is expected to yield about $30,000 for the
s Klamath Union high school
L cyV district enough to make pos-
ff? ible local levy reductlon
,f IS even 11 the district purchases
the Butler natatorium.
I V j v The swimming pool pur-
f- .JJ, chase is due for a spot in the
new years budget soon to be
rl nrcnared. The district has
taken an option on the pool,
which is already virtually a
part of the high school ath
letic olant. The amount- in-
l U understood to be about $13,000.
Under present plans, financing of the swim
ming pool purchase will be handled as a cur
rent budgetary matter, thus eliminating any
incurrence of debt in connection with the pro
ject While Indications are that the high school
levy will be less than last year, a budget
election will be necessary. That is because
the district's tax base for the 6 per cent in
trease limitation was established at an ex
tremely low figure back at the time the dis
trict was formed. Under the law, the increase
limitation is figured on the base, not the prev
ious year's budget. For that reason, it will be
necessary for many years to come to hold an
nual budget elections for the high school
district, even though the levy from year to
year may be reduced, as seems likely this year.
The swimming pool purchase -looks like a
good stroke of business, handled as a budget
ary item rather than a debt. The location of
the pool, adjoining the high school physical
education property, is remarkably favorable.'
State Money Coming
FORMS have been received by the various
school districts for -reporting actual pupil
days attendance on which the distribution of
the state income tax money will be used.
The elementary school district will receive
considerably more than the high school district,
and the county school district share will be
still greater, due to larger attendance In those
districts. .
Under the newly adopted law, which was
revised somewhat by the legislature, the receipts
of the districts from the state Income tax sur
plus will be used to offset real property taxes
which would otherwise be levied by the dis
tricts. Junior High Here to Stay
SUPERINTENDENT ARNOLD GRALAPP re
gards the junior high school program, estab
lished this year at Fremont school, as a success,
and this new plan will be continued next year.
Under this program, all eighth grade students
of the city attend the junior high at the Fre
mont building. For the time being, at least,
there Is no intention of including seventh grad
ers In the junior .high program, and seventh
graders will continue next year to go to school
in the various buildings scattered over the
city.
Public reaction to the establishment of the
Junior high seems to be generally favorable.
There was some small complaint at the start,
when some eighth graders found they were not
going to school In their old buildings, but
school spirit was soon established for the new
junior high and it Is now an accepted part of
the local school system.
Incidentally, a saving of something close to
$5000 was effected through the junior high
program this year.
Lions Go to Town
THE Lions club went to town In a big way
in Tuesday's war bond auction. Helping to
create the right spirit was the appearance on
the program of Erwin Wissenback, the Klamath
boy who Jumped from a burning Flying Fortress
over occupied Europe and made his way back to
free soil. Klamath people are asked this month
to buy $350,009 In bonds, enough to buy a
Fortress such as the one lost on Sergeant
Wlssenback's adventure.
Frankly proud even surprised was Lion
President Gene Hooker over the $92,500 in
bonds sold at the Lions' auction. It set a
record for local war bond auctions.
' Mr. Hooker tells us he wants to Issue a dial
lenge to any other organization in town to ex
ceed the figure established in the Lions' auction.
The Lions' May campaign is now more than
one-third completed, both as to time and
amount. If It continues on its present course,
the $350,000 goal will be reached and a bomber
will be named the "Klamath Pelican" in honor
of the citizens of Klamath county.
In view of the fire displayed by the Lions .
so far, there seems to be no doubt the objective
Will be achieved.
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, May 12 Three invasion
points of Europe now logically present
themselves.
No one of them should be tried alone. To
concentrato on one point
would enable the Germans to
shift their inferior and dis
persed air force into a con
centration of their maximum
possible effort against us.
But if we could organize a
successful parachute troop, in
vasion of Norway simultan
eously with a blow through
the mid-Mediterranean, Hitler
would have to fight us on two
MALLON sides farthest from his sources
of production and at the same time continue
his defensive struggle in Russia.
, What the situation needs, therefore, is not a
second front, but a second and third fronts
simultaneously imposed.
If air bases could be gained in Norway and
Italy,, every inch of German territory could be
opened to our bombers and to those of the reds.
Now a considerable portion of German terri
tory is out of our bombing reach, and Hitler
no doubt has moved much of his most vital
production into these immune areas.
The southern half of such a pincer invasion
could go through Sicily into Italy and then
eventually up into Austria, through the com
paratively level route of the Isonza river in
northeastern Italy, (Where the Italians ran
fastest in the last war.)
Alternative Invasion Routes
IMPASSABLE mountains protect Hitler rrom
invasion on an Italian front in all other
quarters except the Isonza. A Boy Scout could
repel a division in the Brenner or Simplon
passes. . , I
An alternative southern route from Africa !
Into the south of France can be found if we
first take the island of Sardinia and then
Corsica. , .'; j
A third strategically desirable Invasion point ;
' lies In Thrace above Turkey. Now that Tunisia
has fallen, a proper time has arrived for Turkey
to jump in on our side.
It is known we have strong forces In Persia
ready to aid the Russians against any spring
or summer renewal of Hitler's drive for
Ukrainian oil. In view of the bombed condition
of much German industry, a shortage of nazi
lubricating oils, spare parts and raw materials,
it is hardly possible for him to organize a new
Ukrainian campaign.
The Turks, therefore, should feel at last I
entirely free to act. ' We should offer them
something to act. Such a new front in that '
quarter, however, is obviously not so inviting
to us as the Norway-Italian pincer, because
it is far from our best avenues of supplies.
A fourth prospective front, of course, is the
nearest Britain one across the North Sea to
Holland and Belgium, aimed directly at Ger
many. Hitler is taking apparent precautions
there by his declaration of martial law in
Holland, and he is fortified there as well as
anywhere along the whole front.
Furthermore, this route would leave him
closest to his own lines of supplies. Also, the
area is generally closed to military operations
by mud along about Novembei 15, so time Is
short for bringing an operation there to a suc
cessful conclusion. f
Any of these suggested obvious actions will
require a tremendous organization of shipping
and planes In addition to the ground invasion
force.
No one here is prophesying an end of Ger
many this year.
.
Tax Political Contest
BEHIND the Ruml-Carlson tax appeasement
program has arisen the hottest internal
partisan political contest of many a year. The
merits and demerits of this and various other
substitute proposals almost have been lost to
sight in the Jockeying of democrats to break
up the republican campaign for the Ruml
solution. '
The only way the democratic house leaders
were able to beat the Ruml Idea by four votes
(206 to 202, with 27 absentees) was by organiz
ing a telephone-telegraph pressure program to
get their democrats to return to Washington.
Speaker Rayburn, Democratic Leader McCor
mack, and Whip Ramspcck made a really super
human effort In this respect "to beat Joe
Martin," the republican leader, as they put it.
The republicans surmise that any good tax
abatement will be a great political victory for
them, and the democrats must agree with that
supposition, if you Judge from the efforts they
have been putting in to beat the idea. They
have two aces in the hole. The house con
ferees who will work out the final form of the
legislation with the senate will be heavily
stacked against Ruml. Also, they have in
their sleeve the possibility of a presidential
1 veto.

MORE ON UNIONS AND
PATRIOTISM
KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. (To
the Editor) I am usually a quiet
guy, but when people like An
drew J. Brown starts calling me
unpatriotic and Infer that I am
a slacker, I kind of get roiled up.
It just so happens, Mr. Brown
that I am 18 years old and I am
working In an essential inauiu.v
half of the day and going to
school the other half.
The day after Pearl Harbor
I tried to join the navy and I
have tried several times since
but they wouldn't have me be
cause I have two fingers gone.
My only hope now is thai the
army will draft me. If you
could arrange it so that I could
get that $5u a montn and tne
uniform to go with It, I will be
eternally g.ateful to you.
In your letter you called me
a champion of unions. I feel
honored, but I am not only a
champion of unions but also of
democracy. If you read Mr.
Chase's letter you found that he
not only proposed taking away
the laborers freedom to unionize
during the war. No, he wasn't
referring to the war, but to the
constitution of the U. S. A. and
that constitution, containing the
Bill of Rights, will be with us
after this war is over and It will
be Interpreted the same way
unless people like Wayne Chase
get their way and labor is re
pressed. I entirely agree with you Mr.
Brown, that we shouldn't have
shutdowns in times like these,
but as you probably already
know wages are not the only
thing those miners are commit
ting sabotage for they want to
work under decent conditions.
They want conditions that will
keep their health up so that they
can continue mining coal for the
boys over seas. Who is the
sabature Mr. Brown? The miners
who want to work under healthy
conditions or the employer who
has it in his power to give them
these, but won't, so the miners
have to walk out in an attempt
to procure them.
As for J. L. Lewis dictating
to the government; who told the
miners to go back to work? Sure,
John L. Lewis, but Secretary of
Interior Ickes told him. Who is
doing the dictating?
Yours truly
HAROLD KING.
