' While still working hard to break through in the Belgorod area, the Germans attacked strongly in the Orel-Kursk sec tor at the northern end of the Kursk salient. Big Force Used Up to 400 tanks and a large force . of infantry attacked on one narrow sector. The Russians reported many tanks destroyed and more than 2000 men killed. At another position on this front soviet aviation broke up a German attack before it could get under way. Soviet tanks, following the favorite tactics of digging them selves into the ground and lighting from ambush, account ed for a large number of 162 tanks which the Germans were said to have lost yesterday. The nasi, airforce lost only 31 planes yesterday, the smallest number since the offensive began.

TT sounds reasonable because It clicks with the far too pre valent notion that the public should either be kept in the dark entirely or should be fed sugar-coated tommyrot. With this silly notion, this writer has no sympathy whatever. If the United States of Amer ica of the future is to bear any dependable resemblance to the United States of America as created by the founding fathers, its people need to be given the plain facts and left to form their own Judgments.

When 16 years of age, while working at Grants Pass, he join ed the Oregon National Guard at the first mobi Illation. He had been with the local National Guard and was one of its young est members, being just 14 at the time. With the Grants Pass outfit he went with Company C, 186th infantry, to Fort Lewis, transferring to anti-tank com pany, of the 186th. Later he was identified with the 194th tank battalion and sailed for The Philippines on September 8, 1941. Christmas Cable Parents of young Karrer last heard from him when they re ceived a Christmas eve cable in 1941, shortly after Pearl Harbor. He had written several times prior to that time but the cable ended any further communica tion. On' January 30, 1943, the war department advised Karrer's father that his son was a prison er of war. Through the Red Cross the family has written, but no replies have reached here. The Karrers have four other sons, all younger than Roy. They are Boyd, Neal, Dean and Loren. Roy was a graduate of Pelican grade school and attended Klam ath Union high school for three years. His father is employed as lumber grader at Ewauna. Attended KUHS Melvin J. Myers was born August 14, 1919, in Pasco, Wash ington. The family lived in North Bend for a short time and came to Klamath Falls 11 years ago. Melvin was baptised in the First Presbyterian church during his residence on Coos Bay. He attended Klamath Union high school and joined the Oregon National Guard when that unit was mobilized as Battery A in 1940. Going from here to Fort Stevens, the youth served until June, 1941. when he was ordered to Fort McDowell, California. He visited his family on a 20-day furlough at that time. Arriving at Fort McDowell he was sta tioned there but one week when he left for active duty in The Philippines. Last word from Melvin reach ed his parents shortly after Pearl Harbor, the letter written pos sibly two or three weeks before that date. Melvin's father is em ployed at Lamm Lumber com pany at Modoc Point In addi tion to his parents he has) twol sisters, Mrs. Ethel Ford of this city, Mrs. Violet Andrews of Los Angeles and two brothers, Harry of Portland and Thomas of Cas cade Locks. Melvin was listed as a member of Company K, 31st infantry, Fort McKinley, The Philippines. Parents Notified Mr. and Mrs. P. Earl Greear of Chiloquin were notified of the death of their son, Robert,' who has been in a prison camp in The Philippines since the fall of Bataan. Robert enlisted in the army in January, 1940, was shipped overseas on April 27 and arrived in the islands May 23. He was originally stationed at Nichols field and after the bomb ing there returned to Bataan. Robert Greear was born May 9, 1918, at Prairie City, Ore. He was a graduate of Chiloquin high school and was captain of his basketball team and was all- state and all star player. As captain of the squad one year, he sent the team to one of the first county championship years. In addition to his parents, Rob ert is survived by a brother, Dean, and a sister, Margaret Lee, Fire Hazards Force Closure of Oregon Forests Today (Continued From Page One) tection crews composed largely of inexperienced men and boys. There is no reservoir of manpow er to draw upon for fire fighting without interrupting work in the logging woods, the mills and farms, and the war effort de mands that lumber and food pro duction go ahead without inter ruption, Since the forest service does not wish to interfere with recreational use and freedom of movement through the forest any more than nocassary, the clos ures will be lifted as soon as weather conditions permit in tho fall, according to Cliff. The pro tective agencies are confident that they can count on the coop eration of the public in making the closures effective and keep lng fire out of the forests this year. Recreation Use Recreational. use will be per mitted in three areas on the Fremont forest. One Is the Sit ver creek area which Includes all lands within the Fremont for est lying east of the west edge of the Rodman Rock road and west of the east edge of the Silver Lake-Sycan road and north and west of the south and east boundary fences of the ZX Sycan ranch.

This area includes such fine fishing streams as Dairy creek and the Chewau can river and most of their trib utaries, and Deadhorse, Camp bell and Blue lakes. The third locality In which recreational use will be permitted Is the War ner mountain area which in eludes all of the Warner moun tain section of the Fremont for est except the Underwood-Wil low creek area which lies east of the Bulls Prairie-Drakes peak and the Willow creek-Deep creek roads.

SPREAD OVER INDUSTRIALS By VICTOR EUBANK NEW YORK, July 13 P) Early strcniith of coppers and specialties spread to rails and selected industrials in the latter part of today's stock market with resultant gains running to a point or moro for favorites, many of which touch 3-yoar peaks. The advance was accomplish ed in rclotively quiet dealings although blocks of 1000 to 10,000 shares of low-priced issues, usual ly unchanged, put the day's turnover at around 1,000,000 shares. PIjwi marks were well in the majority near tho close. Getting Into the "new high" class were Santa Fc, Goodyear, Standard Oil (N.J.), Socony, Pepsi-Cola, Twentieth Century Fox and Alleghany preferreds. Front liners included Anacon da, Kennecott, Southern Pacific, U. S. Steel, U. S. Rubbur, Mont gomery Ward, General Motors and Chrysler. Among backsliders were Doug las Aircraft, Curtiss-Wrlght, Goodrich, and American Can. Bonds were mixed, as were commodities.
