'tL"- We won't say a word here ,"H in behalf of Gilchrist, the f t ' t-rt wonder town of North Klanv J ath county, which is asking everybody to buy bonds in June (and please to write Credit Gilchrist" on their bond applications.) We'll hope you find out elsewhere what a fine asset Gilchrist Is to Klamath county, EPLEY ' how it is one of the west's outstanding lumbering communities, how its earners went over 10 per cent on war bonds last spring and are going to do their part in a big way in June, and what a fine name "Gilchrist Logger" will be for one of those fighter planes. Nope, not a word In this column that can be interpreted as a boost for Gilchrist. We're Suspicious INCIDENTALLY, after that plug for Malta In his column yesterday, FJ took off for San Francisco and his comment doesn't even appear In today's paper. He said something about soma kind of a meeting down there but we have our suspicions. His absence, plus that of Wes Guderlan who is on vacation, leaves this scribe so jammed with work he can't do a thing for Gilchrist for a few days. Whatever his Intentions, FJ's trip was just about the best contribution he could make to a war measure and nothing else, they might take it without a murmur. As it stands, a great many sensible people recognise the necessity and value of the con trols, but they instinctively raise their voices as ' a protest against what may be attempted in the future when it is no longer necessary and valuable. We offer this, for what it may be worth, as solace to some sincere people we know who have worked for the OPA and may have been disappointed at what appears to be the public reaction to that program. SIDE GLANCES The War Today By DeWtTT MacKEMZIE THE successful Chinese counter-attack against the Japanese in the Ichang zone along the swift waters of the great Yangtze river is a heartening exhibition, for the threat to General issimo Chiang Kai-Shek's badly strained defen sive structure baa been very grave. One of the most impressive features of this show of Chinese strength is that air power played a major part. American bombers and fighters from our General Chennault's forces, and Chinese fighters, appear to have turned the tide of battle and inflicted severe punish ment on the routed Japanese. Now that affords real encouragement. About a fortnight ago when the Jap offensive was developing In Intensity this column pointed out the danger to China, especially in view of the fact that about the only aid which the allies could give was by air, because of the closure of the Burma road. I suggested then that If Chiang got too hard pressed the allies would rush warplanes from India. Air power, which is doing so much for the united Nations In other parts of the world, likely w v mwct. 1 1, una n mt. vt. . . fl!

Kind Father open up this back-door. In this connection It's interesting to note British Premier Churchill's remarks about air strength in the house of commons today. IN a letter to Texas poultry raisers, Senator Destruction I O'Daniel of that state charges federal au thorities with a deep-dyed scheme to regiment the American oeonle What he senses, evidently, is a plan whereby the federal government will become the great white father who knows what is best for the rest of us and will see to it that we take it whether we want it or not. That's the sort of thing that has been steadily growing up in this country in the last decade. The Issue is becoming Increasingly clear. It will be one of the most vital decisions we will have to make after the war whether we are going to let daddy take care of us under a system of subjugation of the individual, or HE declared that "nothing will turn us from our endeavor and intention to accomplish the complete destruction of our foes by bombing from the air in addition to all other means." Then he added: 'The steady wearing down of the German and Japanese air forces is proceeding remorse lessly. The enemy, who thought that air would be their weapon of victory, are now finding in it the first, cause of their ruin." The Nipponese apparently had little aerial aeiense against the American and Chinese war. planes. The comparatively small allied airforre in Its bombing and machine-gunning of enemy troops and communications, took the place of Airport News, Views whether we are going to stand op on our own a large land force with artillery.

Distrust POSSIBLY the public resentment to wartime controls may be traced, in part, to a deep suspicion that an attempt is going to be made to impose such a program on the American people Indefinitely. We do not believe any significant portion of the American people, with relatives and friends in the service, will refuse to make whatever sacrifices are necessary at home. But what has happened, we believe, may be interpreted as an evidence of distrust of the ultimate objectives of this program. If the people could be convinced that a lot of theorists were not dreaming of an "OPA world of the future" and that this was strictly Nimitz Sees Huge Pacific Forces BERKELEY, Calif., June 8 VP) The U.

Always read the classified ads TELLING 'EM The OWI Overseas News and Feature Bureau sent more than 20,000,000 words . and 200,000 pictures about America to foreign countries outside of the Americas during 1942. This ma terial was used by the "under ground," as well as in over 3500 publications and an uncounted number of leaflets and radio broadcasts. BUSY SHEEP Approximately 825,000,000 lin ear yards of woolen and worsted woven fabrics were produced in 1942. This is 5 per cent more than in 1941, and almost 50 per cent more than in 1939.

DONNER The heart of any school is its staff of teachers. The heart of our flying school is the instruct or. If the student is slow In learn ing or fast, a good Instructor knows how to develop his flying abilities in the best possible manner. An ill-timed razzing of a good student in a slump may prolong the seige of bad work and may in the long run end up by being the contributing cause of his be ing "washed out." Flight Contractor Louis Sou kup has chosen his Instructors well. Neither of them raise their voice to the high heavens when their boys make mistakes and it helps in rationally cogitating over the cause and cures. W. J. Arnold, ex-army pilot and veteran of thousands of hours in the air, has been fly ing since 1928 and instructing since 1940. Arnold, like the bat ance of the instructors,! has flown so long that it has be come second nature for him to be in the air. Edgar Spruce, home town Bremerton, Wash., started flying in 1938 and instructing last year. He has over 1100 hours to his credit. Richard Ballentlne started fly ing in 1937 and instructing last July. He has over 1100 hours to his credit. His instructor career started at Welton, Ariz., Susan ville, Calif., and is continuing at Klamath Falls. Ballentine is a local boy who made good. Frank Davenport, also from Bremerton, Wash., started his ca reer in the ozone in 1938 and has logged 1260 hours. He also be gan instructing in July, last year. Elbert Stiles, born and raised in Klamath Falls, began flying in 1935 and has logged 1400 hours. Instructors Sugg and Hough were incommunicado and could not be reached for Interview in time so we'll have to dissest their careers at a later date. Ground Instructor Ben Woh- ler, teaching meteorology and navigation, has done a bit of flv. ing himself and knows whereof ne teaches. We don't know if Chef Sum meriieia, generalissimo of the barracks, has ever been up in the air or not. but we can tifv that he has spent some consid- eraoie llme around ,ne kitchens The "Wives club" is in the planning process as more and more of the wives of the boys at the field arrive to be near, their boys." Mrs. Carl Mays, Mrs. Jack Bird, Mrs. Harry Peterson and Mrs. Carl Larson are the latest io arrive for nrnlnnooj stays. Mrs. Clark is due to arrive m ine near future.

Branch postofflces In large cities throughout the United States have received numbers to expedite handling of mail In these cities. Residents In the larger cities have been advised of tht number of their branch office and have been aaked to add this number to their ad dress. Correspondents of residents of the cities whose branch offices are numbered are asked to in clude the number of the office with the address. An example of the new type of address Is: John C. Smith 222 Mattapan avenue Boston 8 Massachusetts. Handling of mall In the larger cities may be speeded up by as much as a day or two, according to Burt E. Hawkins, local post master. The new system saves manpower and thus cuts down expense, Hawkins said. Portland, Seattle, Tacoma, San Francisco, Salt Lake City, Spokane, are cities In this area which have had branch offices numbered according to the new system.
