"The parties also remain free to agree to a settlement of their prospective lawsuit If they should agree to a settlement, the board, as the agency of govern ment charged with administra tion of the wage stabilization program, will rule whether the agreement is a genuine settle ment of the lawsuit compatible with the stabilization program." WLB Chairman William H Davis pointed out in a press con ference that the miners' claim for travel time pay "represents an unknown liability. He said the board offered an opportunity to the parties for settlement of their dispute but "we can not force upon them the settlement of a lawsuit we have no power to decide."

Corneit Says Preparation For Peace as Necessary as Preparation for Fighting "To be unprepared for peace when victory does come, which will probably be as sudden and unexpected as was the attack on Pearl Harbor, would be a calam ity secondary only to our state of unpreparedness when that devastating blow was struck." This was one of the principal points brought out by State Sen ator Marshall E. Cornett in his address given before members of Rotary club at the Friday lunch eon in the Willard hotel. Cornett reviewed the work of peace planning In its present status, discussed the merits of plans which have been projected and said: "Never before has the strat egy of peace been planned when G OF C CHAIRMEN E Eight Oregon chamber of com' merce executive secretaries will arrive in Klamath Falls Satur day to be joined by Earl C. Rey nolds, local chamber secretary, and the group will leave Sunday to attend the annual Western Institute for Commercial organi zations to be held at Lake Tahoe.

The chamber conference which will have representatives from eight western states, is sponsored by the universities of Oregon, southern California and Nevada, and by the chamber of commerce of the United States, the west ern chamber of commerce secre taries and the trade association executives. The institute will last one week. . Earl Reynolds has been select ed to give two lectures at the conference covering the subject of committee organization. Not Even the OPA Can Find Charlie During Honeymoon , , LOS ANGELES, June 18 VP) Not even office of price admin istration (OPA) investigators have been able to locate Charlie Chaplin, honeymooning with his 18-year-old bride, Oona O'Neill, they reported to Samuel Leask, Jr., southern California' OPA-director. But said Leask last night, "If we don't locate him, we'll subpoena him." The OPA Leask explained, wants to know the source of gasoline used for the elopement of Chaplin and Miss O'Neill, daughter of Playwright Eugene O'Neill, to Santa Barbara coun ty, where they were married Wednesday at Carpinteria. The investigators, Leask stat ed, also wish to check reports, unverified, that the wedding party used two automobiles, and that the 35-mile speed limit was violated.

The speaker urged all think ing Americans to give their un divided attention to the post-war world which must bring about "peace and not an armed truce." Klamath's senator had this to say: "The two doors which I see open to this Utopia (referring to the world-wide peace to come), first, world peace through the medium of a federation of Euro pean states; second, world peace through the medium of a world civilization. "The subject of world civiliza tion is as old as civilization it self and there are many argu ments both pro and con that could be developed. Narrowness, selfishness, meanness and stupid ity, all defects of human charac ter and education, have made the mess we are in, and it can not be cleaned up by those who will actually sit at the peace con ference, which will be seeking revenge. World democracy may be conceived and dedicated at the end of this war, but it will take decades of patient and un remitting devotion on the part of each Individual in the pursuit of that democratic ideal to make of it an endurable civilization." Cornett prophesied that the "big three" around the peace table would be in this order, Russia, Great Britain and the United States, "with the possibil ity of us even losing that third position to some lesser power, unless our confused leadership and postwar planning is not un tangled." President Do Los Mills presid ed at the luncheon. Tickets were sold for the Commando dance, funds to be used for bringing here a group of service men dur ing the Fourth of July celebra tion.

Russia Red armies beat olf new German attacks in Orel sector; soviet planes set 100 big fires in raids on German air dromes; nazis report Russians massing before Orel and west of Kursk. While axis radios nervously declared that British and Amer ican armies are preparing to strike across the eastern Medit erranean, allied warplanes con tinued to hammer Italy s anu invasion defenses. U. S. heavy bombers flying from the middle east attacked the airdromes at Comisco and Biscari, Sicily, across the nar row Messina strait from the toe of Italy, and returned without loss. RAF long-range fighters again scoured the Aegean sea, blast ing an enemy ship off Delos is land and shooting down three three-engined Italian bombers off Cvorus. From Northwest Africa, big RAF Wellington bombers which carry 4000-pound double block busters returned to the attack on the Italian mainland port of Naples and scored hits on the dock area. Berlin dispatches to Ankara said the Balkans provided the likeliest target for allied inva sion, and declared: "German and Italian troops have already occupied all im portant positions in this new theatre of war and have strong ly, fortified them." The Germans said defense preparations "particularly apply to Crete."

"Output will be substantially larger in June, with the produc tion curve continuing Its steady rise thereafter until it meets the maximum of available supplies of the aluminum, copper, and alloy steel required to turn out finished planes, WPB said. s "Thomas F. Thorn, district mile age rationing representative for the office of price administra tion, today warned applicants for new tires, that tire stocks are becoming increasingly shorter. All local board quotas have been seriously reduced for the month of June' with the pros pects of a further reduction In the immediate future. Approx imately twice as many tire ap plications are being received by the boards as they are able to fill on their quotas, Thorn said. Many car and truck owners apparently are of the opinion that when a tire inspector rec ommends them for a new tire it is up to the board to issue a certificate. Such is not the case. All the inspector can do is to certify the need for a new tire, thereby authorizing an applica tion to the board. The board ordinarily does not question the. need for a new tire. Thorn said, but it is up to them to select on the basis of the national emergency, the few certificates that their fixed quotas will allow. The situation is becoming so serious that the board can no longer consider the interest of the individual applicant but base each certificate granted on the applicant's importance in the national emergency.

FHCIHL VOLLEY FIRED AT ENEMY (Continued From Page One) World war, the committee said It was ."determined that the armed forces shall have every dollar essential for the early at tainment of an unconditional surrender by all o( the axis powers." It shaved only $387,988,827 from budget estimates, and left untouched the $23,685,481,000 estimate for the air corps. "The cost is frightful," the committee observed. "Global warfare ntid modern implementa tion is the answer , , , Guns, tanks, airplanes, ammunition, chemicals and war munitions of every kind and description are provided for in accordance with the department's recommenda tions." With the bill, the committee made public a letter from Gen eral Gcorgo C. Marshall, chief of staff, asserting the funds pro vided were "necessary In order to carry on aggressive warfart) around the globe" and to "hasten the destruction of the enemy." None of the high army officials who testified during the com mittee's hearings hazarded a guess as to how long It would take to deliver the knockout blow to the axis, but all were agreed no stone would be left un turned to expedite the day of reckoning. "We are planning now with out any definite termination data in mind," said Lieut. Gen, Bre- hon B. Somervell, commander of the army service forces, "and we are planning on putting the max imum we can into the work, within the limits of your appro priation. In other words, we are planing to go all out, which is the best we could do if you want to be ready for three years or four years more." Throughout the 588 page rec ord of the hearings there were notations of confidential testi mony stricken out.
