old Joan Berry's unborn child.
The action was filed yesterday
by Mrs. Gertrude Berry of New
York, whose auburn-haired and
brown-eyed daughter declares
Chaplin promised her a film
career but permitted a $75-weck-ly
contract to expire last Octob
er, before she had appeared in
anything but camera test shots.
The suit petitions that Chaplin
be named father of the child and
ordered to pay $2300 monthly,
beginning immediately, for its
support, as well as $10,000 for
Miss Berry's medical care -and
$5000 for court and attorney's
costs. It states that Chaplin and
Miss Berry have never been mar
ried, and that he denies patern
ity. Chaplin, instructed to appear
June 17 on a show-cause order,
issued this statement last night,
through his attorneys:
"Miss Berry states her unborn
child was conceived in Decem
ber, last. The first claim made
upon me by Miss Berry was in
May, and was accompanied by
demand for payment of $1S0,
000. I am not responsible for
Miss Berry's condition."
Miss Berry said yesterday: '
"I spent many evenines with
Mr. Chaplin at his home. We
studied Shakespeare together. I
worked hard very hard. Mr.
Chaplin coached me in diction,
voice control and all the other
technical dramatic arts."
If the United Nations leave
Japan alone to consolidate her

from occupied territories for
Germany's high technical skill.

Crisis Is Checked
The UMW chief's decision ap
peared to solve, for tho time be
ing, at least, a grave crisis which
had almost completely paralyzed
the nation's coal industry.
President Roosevelt had or
dered the miners to return on
Monday and reliable informants
said he had a sterner program
in reserve to back up his order
if the miners failed to heed.
No one in coal circles doubted
that a recommendation by Lewis
to the policy committee would
be adopted and that, barring
some unlikely, unforeseen de
velopment, the minaa would be
running full blast again on Mon
day. They have been closed since
Monday midnight on the refusal
of miners to work without a con
tract. With production resumed, the
case again reverts to the war
labor board. Whether question
of portal-to-portal pay will go
back to the bargaining table or
be decided by the board Itself Is
a question for the board to de
termine. The president had made it
plain that he is backing up the
WLB and that any agreement
would have to meet its approval.

At least, these rumors give us
a glimpse of what the Germans

THE Russians today raise to 162
their figure on the number
of planes they shot out of tho

COUR times now the British
fleet has shelled the Italian

the Berlin radio has been boast
ing that the Italian fleet is all

casualties not included) is
announced today as 342 dead,
1135 wounded and 58 missing

Contrast this with the 1791
Jap bodies so far counted. Then
remember that WE were attack
ing and the JAPS defending and
the normal (before this war)
ratio was three attacker casual
tics to ONE defender. So far at
Attu we've killed at least five
Japs (probably many more) for
each American soldier who lost
his life.
There's nothing wrong with
the quality of our men on the
fighting fronts. If anything'!
wrong, it's among the stay-at-homes.
THE coal strike on the home
front drags on, with Monday
set as the next deadline for some
thing to happen.
Don't be too hard on the min

have been told by the demagogue
politicians that they owe their
country NOTHING and that the
country owes them EVERY

to Dodge owners the growing

Tho meeting was another In a

line with the lnngcstabllshed
Dodge policy of keeping closely
in touch with owner and dealer

"Selling a 'mechanical' prod

Well Over Average

lower in Klamath county than
It is for the United States as a
whole. The Klamath county
average is 3.0 persons; Oregon,
2.8; Pacific coast, 2.8; and the
U. S., 3.3.
In analyzing this survey for
the U. S. a a whole,. W. C. Schup
pel, president of the Oregon
Mutual Life Insurance company,
says: "Effective buying Income
soared to a 25 per cent gain over
1941, and even after heavier
taxes and higher costs, the Amer
ican public saved more than 26
billion dollars. These savings
represent more than half the
total national income.
'The accumulated savings In
war bonds, banks and llfo insur
ance," explains Schuppol, "will
show a further expansion this
year, and will constitute the
greatest backlog of purchasing
power which any nation has ever
had. Consumer debt is rapidly
being wiped off the books. By
tho end of this year, there will
be practically no outstanding
debit balances for normally pop
ular installment items, such as
automobiles and refrigerators."
