YOUNGSTERS
PLAY DEAD IN
Playing dead may pay divi
dends in a foxhole, but four
youngsters, ranging from 10 to
12 years of age, performed tne
possum act before the wrong
cars late Friday night.
The four boys stopped various
cars on the old Midland road
just at the Great Northern shops
turn, about 11 p. m. Friday when
they lay prone in the middle of
the highway. As cars stopped,
they Jumped up and ran away.
Driver of one car stepped from
his machine to look at the "bod
ies," and the four scampered for
the bushes. Just behind the
driver was State Police Officer
William Colbert. He took things
in hand.
The four youngsters, each ac
companied by his father and
mother, were brought into Ju
venile Officer Harold Hendrick
son's office Saturday morning
and a lecture meted out to all.
Not only was the danger of such
a practice stressed, but the par
ents of the lads were advised
that they should keep watch of
their children at such an hour.
The four were from separate
homes.

Friday that when the youngsters

Congress, Delay
Summer Recess
WASHINGTON, July 8 (IP)
Congress gave up the idea of
leaving today for a summer
recess, and Speaker Rayburn
(D-Tex.) said "it looks like
now we'll get away from
here next Wednesday, Thurs
day, Friday or Saturday.
The congressional vacation
was delayed by a jam of ap
propriation bills, running
into billions of dollars, which
failed of passage by the be
ginning of the new fiscal
year July 1.
Congress also must decide
whether it will extend the
bituminous coal act, or let
it die on the expiration date,
August 23.
JAP TELLS DIES OF
LOYALTY TO U. S.
WASHINGTON, July 3 (IP)
Mike M. Masaoka, who said .he
joined the army to show loyalty
to his native America and en
mity to ancestral Japan, urged
before the Dies committee to
day that loyal Japanese-Ameri
cans be given "that Chinaman's
chance" to stay here after the
war."
Masaoka, former secretary of
the Japanese American Citizens
league, also asked present day
assistance, saying that the war
relocation authority (WRA)
"should get more Japanese
Americans out of the reloca
tion camps and restore them to
normal life."
A private in the army since
June 4, Masaoka said that the
relocation agency "should take
more firm steps to inform
Americans generally of the loy
alty of the Japanese Americans
in this country.
Under questioning of the
committee, the house groups on
unAmerican activities, he said
he does not believe that every
member of the league is loyal
to the United States, but "at
least 90 per cent of them are,
As for the pledge of loyalty, he
said "some of them might have
signed with mental reserva
tions."

Klamath folks who read the
San Francisco Chronicle have
enjoyed - an article entitled,
"Klamath Falls is a City That
Knows How." It has to do with
the bringing of the bay area
wounded men to this city to
"find out about Oregon hospi

in part:
"Here s a little story to make
all of us, who live in areas near

our hearts and heads that we

Allied forces in the Nassau Bay

HITS AXIS IN JUNE
LONDON, July 3 (IP) A rec
ord weight of 15,000 tons of
bombs was dropped on Europe in
June by British-based planes of
the RAF, the air ministry an
nounced today as the allied air
offensive went into the third day
of a new month with only sec
ondary attacks reported.
Southeast coastal observers
said a strong force of British air
craft, -apparently including
bombers, headed across the chan
nel last night, but there was' no
immediate authoritative an
nouncement. The German communique said
allied planes flying singly drop
ped a few bombs in western Ger
many near the frontier, damag
ing buildings. The high com
mand asserted that 614 British
and U. S. planes were destroyed
over Germany and occupied ter
ritory - in June, including 408
four-engined bombers.
During daylight yesterday
RAF ,Boston bombers laid explo
sives across railway targets at
Ghent and Courtrai, in Belgium,
and Lille, France, while RAF
typhoons sent flames shooting up
100 feet from an oil storage tank
near Ijmulden, Holland.
German planes stabbed toward
Britain last night for the first
time in a week. The ministry of
home security said one was de
stroyed off the south coast.

He said the park's depleted

"THE July 3 "der tag" that Ber
lin has been shouting about
via radio for weeks passes and
still no invasion soap. The Rome
radio perks up and boasts: "Wu
are preparing for a 30-years
war."
One guesses that's addressed
to the Germans in the spirit of
"don't spank, we'll BE GOOD."
"THE German "invasion-lmmi-V
nent" propaganda seems to
be aimed at building up the
hopes of the conquered peoples
and then DASHING them.)
A CTION on the Russian front
today is reported to be the
liveliest for some time, with the
Russians apparently taking the
bulk of the initiative. The Ger
mans are reported massing
troops on the Crimea side of the
Kerch strait, suggesting that
they may be planning a new
push into the Caucasus.
The big question mark is why
they haven't started pushing
sooner.
TTHERE'S nothing new today
on the Chinese story that the
Japs are rushing troops to Man
churia for an attack on Siberia.
(The story is probably moon
shine, but don't ignore it wholly.
It MIGHT happen.)
If it did happen, it would be
likely, to mean thai we have a
deal of some sort on with Russia
and the Japs know about it.
rXN the home front, congress
backs off from forbidding
price - roll back subsidies and
starts putting together a new
and milder bill after FDR vetoes
the former and tougher one.
Because of the obvious (polit
ical) weaknesses of our price
holding policy as so far de
veloped, the subsidy method in
some form or other is probably
about the only hope left of hold
ing the price line just as the
tragic delaying operation at Ba
taan was all that was left after
it became apparent that we
hadn't provided military
strength enough in the Philip
pines to hold against the Japs.
Nazi Propaganda
Attempts Heavy
Humor on Invasion
LONDON, July S (IP) Nazi
Propaganda Minister Joseph
Goebbels, in a heavy-handed at
tempt at ironic humor, used the
Paris radio today for a series of
reports of an allied "invasion"
army after flatly announcing
that axis enemies had chosen
July 3 for an assault on France.
The broadcasts apparently
were designed to ridicule allied
plans of attack against Europe
and, at the same time, to show
the Germans could be light heart
ed about such matters.
Fund Apportionment
Made to Counties
The annual apportionment of

Griffith, secretary of the state
land board, announced this
morning.
On the total of $321,419.56

basis of $1.21 per school-age

The French committee of Na

SENATE SLOWS CCC
BILL ROLLBACK FUND
(Continued From Page One)
enccs that he had been unable
to obtain an agreement on pro
cedure which would expedite
consideration of the bill passed
by tha house yesterday after
President Roosevelt had vetoed
a measure killing the roll back
program and the veto had been
sustained.
Full Retreat
Congress appeared In full re
treat today from its once over
whelmingly strong stand against
government subsidized retail
price rollbacks.
President Roosevelt put the
issue squarely up to the law
makers yesterday by vetoing a
bill which started out as legis
lation to continue the commod
ity credit corporation (CCC) for
another two years, then grew
into a proposal outlawing the
administration's program to pay
processors so prices to the con
sumer could be cut.
Though both branches had
passed this bill by huge ma
jorities, the house refused to
override the veto. The senate
put off action until today with
sentiment growing for some
curb on subsidies, rather than
outright prohibition.
Limit Proposed
Senator Taft (R-Ohlo) said he
would propose limiting CCC's
subsidy payments to $230,000,
000 for the next six months
an amount he declared was sat
isfactory to the administration
for financing the price rollback
on meats, butter and coffee.
The cave-in started after Mr.
Roosevelt charged in his veto
message that the action "blacks
out the program to reduce the
cost of living."
Mr. Roosevelt said he would
not be responsible for holding
the line against inflation if his
veto were overridden. He has in
sisted that unless prices come
down, demands for higher wages
would multiply and the nation's
economy would be caught in a
vicious cycle.
