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.

loss of 30 miles in 24 hours.
Virtually all the passengers,
particularly the soldiers who
had passes for only four meals,
were out of funds, hungry and
a little sick of tho flowing scen
ery. Chanute's Red Cross canteen
fed civilians and soldiers alike
and provided showers for all.
Dancing and entertainment, pro
vided largely by a group of .en
tertainers on tho trains, kdpt the
canteen open all night.
It was a gay party and cheered
the travelers no end.
Today, fortified by hearty
breakfast of eggs, doughnuts,
coffee and sandwiches, they
boarded their respective trains
for another try at San Antonio.
Tho Frisco took off for Em

ahead for Texas. The Katy elect

thence south also with every

IRIS WANDER
THROUGH FLOOD
CHANUTE, Kas., May 20 (TP)
Two orphans of the flood a
couple of passenger trains trying
to get from St. Louis to San An
tonio wandered on from Cha'n
ute today in their roundabout
odysscy, hopeful of achieving
their destination in the near fu
ture. The two trains the Frisco
Meteor and the Katy Texas
Special left St. Louis Monday
night on a journey that normally
would have put them in San An
tonio the following night.
But then came the floods in
Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma and
Arkansas and today found the
iron horses still plodding around
through Kansas, far from home.
The two trains, carrying near
ly 1000 passengers, mostly sol
diers on leave, panted into
Chanute last night on the Santa
Fe tracks and put up for the
night.
Tuesday they were at Parsons
south of Chanute. They then
