L ftWYER TELLS OF FUTURE AT HIS A three-pronged program for the period lying just ahead was proposed by R, C. Grocsbeck, lo cal attorney, in a talk to the Klamath Kiwanis club Thursday noon, Ills major emphasis was on: 1. Win tho war. 2. Mulntuln frea enterprise, 3. Maintain tho functions of popular government. Grocsbeck argued against the encroachment of government in to tho field of free enterprise, as serting thut too often regulation, which is necessary and proper, Is expanded into an Invasion into management. He asserted there are leftist planners whose rosy schemes will be pressed fervently when the war Is over, to the detriment of free enterprise and the com petitive system which have built the country. The speaker also warned against a tendency to continue "government by directive." "That sort of thing Js all right In war time," ho said, "but once it Is established it will be diffi cult to stop. If It continued Into the period of peace, we will have a totalitarian or dictatorial form of the government. We must keep our country so that your voice and mine can bo heard right through to the top. We must protect the functions of popular government." Gcorgo Mclntyre introduced tho speaker.

WHEAT CHICAGO, May 20 W) Flood news provided-some bullish en thusiasm for grains today and prices advanced moderately, al though inability to estimate the extent of crop damage served to limit buying. Wheat was in good demand and paced the upturn. With trading In May con tracts ending tomorrow there was considerable short-covering in May wheat, and that contract was up more than a cent at times. Pit rumors that flour ceilings might be advanced and reports the government had bought some cash wheat locally I for distilling use aided the ad-! vance. I At the close, wheat was 1-1 Jc higher, May $1.45i-i, July $1.43, ' corn was unchanged. May $1.05,' oats were ic lower to Sc higher and rye was up 1-t cents.
