can be charged against the qual
ity and the courage of our men
who are doing the actual ngni
ing. THE situation in Russia is do-
scribed today as a "significant
lull."
Both sides are hacking at the
other's transport and commum
cation facilities, but the dls
patches add that it is obvious
both sides are getting large quan-
tities of supplies through to
strategic sectors.
Scouting forays are being car
ried out constantly, but the short
nights and long spring days re
duce the likelihood that either
side will be able to catch the
other fellow off guard and hit
him where he is disastrously
weak.
TF you're a normal citizen, you
must be disturbed by the num
ber of strikes in this country
(more men are said to be idle to
day in the great rubber city of
Akron than ever before.)
If this same thing were hap
pening in Japan or Germany,
we'd be delighted. The fact that
it's happening here must give the
Japs and the Germans quite a
lift,
THERE isn't much, apparently,
that we can do about it right
now. We have a labor govern
ment, and will continue to have
it until at least the fall of 1944
and only government can do
much about internal situations
such as this. (Preferably by
leadership toward SOMETHING
BETTER, rather than by force.)
The. convictions now being
formed in people's minds will
determine what kind of govern
ment and governmental policies
we are to have after 1944.
We can't afford to waste time
now in futile anger. We'll just
have to drive ahead and do the
best we can with the type of
domestic leadership we have.

Night Action
(Sharp artillery action oc
curred during the night along
the south-central front from
Scvsk, northwest of Kharkov,
down the Donets river to the
lower front northeast of Novo

Air battles south of Rostov
and on the far Arctic front
were described in the midnight
communique. Thirteen nazi
bombers were downed on the
Rostov front against a loss of
three Russian planes, while ar

as Franey was not a councilman
and the council thus was not
being represented. The council
agreed, and Houston appointed
Bussman as fourth member of
the committee.
The mayor reminded council
men that the courthouse monu
ment honoring Klamath's war
casualties will be dedicated
Sunday, May 30.
Dog Law Casualty
A letter was read by Police
Judge Franey from Harold C.
Colvin who said that his dog
had been picked up for not be
ing chained on May 15, and that
he had not been notified of the
fact until two days later when
he was brought in to police
court to pay a fine of $10, $5 of
which was suspended, plus
a feed bill for the dog's stay at
the pound, and a pick-up charge
of $1. Colvin felt that a person,
should be notified shortly after
the dog has been picKed up so
that it will not be necessary to
pay a feed bill and to carry on
an extensive search for the an
imal such as he had to do, not
knowing where the dog was.
This resulted in some talk
among the council members as
to whether the poundmaster
should be licensed as an officer
of the city. It was decided to
refer this matter to the police
committee and to acknowledge
Colvin s letter.
Sidecar Sold
Police Chief Earl Heuvel was
given permission to sell an old
sidecar, belonging to the police
department, and which is never
used, to Carl Schubert, who had
offered, the city $10.
Councilman Bussman recom
mended changing the stop signs
at Second and Klamath streets.
There is little traffic down on
that end of Klamath," Bussman
said, "but all city trucks use
Second street, and these heavy
units have to make an unneces
sary stop at the Klamath-Sec-ond
Intersection." His recom
mendation of removing the sign
on Second and putting one, in
stead, on Klamath, was passed
to the traffic safety committee.

It also raised the present $20
