FRANK JENKINS KiUor Today's Roundup Br MALCOLM EPLEY FIRES In quick succession at Mowich, Lake view and Bly demonstrate the acute hazard now existing, not just in the woods, but in the cities, towns ana industrial plants of the Klamath region. The area is entering a per iod of extreme dryness, which will become increasingly more serious until the fall rains. Weed and grass cover is turn ing into tinder-like fuel, the woods are in condition to burst into flame. The atmos pheric and temperature situa tion and other conditions mean 'Si M EPLEY great danger of explosive fire in industrial plants and every inflammable structure. The warning is a familiar one, but it always bears repeating at this midsummer point. Be cause destructive fire can be most serious at a time when every effort is bent toward the prosecution of bitter war, it is most important this summer that there be acute awareness of the hazard around us. Replacement of destroyed buildings and equip ment is most difficult at this time. Losses in industrial plants, such as have occurred at Mowich and Lakeview in the past few days and elsewhere earlier in the season, constitute serious blows to the productive effort of the area. Every man, woman and child in the Klamath region must be on guard against carelessness and chance-taking that might start a holocaust. a a Low Fliers WE have observed occasional complaints In other newspapers, particularly the Bend Bulletin, against low-flying and stunting by service fliers over urban areas.

The War Today By DeWITT MacKENZIE THE swiftly moving allied successes in Russia and Sicily were crowding Here Hitler into a mighty tight corner even before Mussolini's downfall cam to increase the difficulties of the sazl position. These widely separated operations strangely enough are creating a squeeze which irrespec tive of developments on the Italian mainland, may in due course force the fuehrer to pull back his entire battleline on the eastern front. This would be one of the greatest withdrawals in history. That line represents more than a thousand miles of defenses which have been buttressed with the bodies of hundreds of thous ands of German youth. Forerunner; THE point is, as previously pointed out In this column, that the nazi chief is compelled to regard the assault on Sicily as the possible forerunner of an allied drive up through the Balkans. The danger is multiplied by the Ital ian political upheaval which may result in a separate peace. An invasion of the Balkans would create a grave threat to the whole Ger man right wing, which already is shaking under the hammering by the red armies. Of course, the Anglo-American team has Hit ler and the world, for that matter guessing as to where they may strike next Possibly the allies themselves are keeping open-minds, since a quick surrender would make the Balkan drive attractive. Should Marshal Pietro Badoglia withdraw from Yugoslavia and Greece the Italian troops which represent the main axis defense there WAR KITCHEN USE HOME-MADE FATS FOR BACON MUFFINS By GAYNOR MADDOX "Muffins for breakfast" will get the war worker out ot bed quicker than an alarm clock. They provide solid nourishment made with wholegrained or en riched flour, egg and shortening. However, in these days of ra tioned commercial shortening, try using strained bacon drip pings or chicken fat in place of butter, lard, margarine or veg etable shortening in your hearty breakfast muffins. Charlotte Adams, outstanding food enthusiast and writer, has some bang-up muffins in her newest book, "You'll Eat It Up." The book contains menus with recipes and market lists for the four seasons and for both med ium and low incomes. Here are Charlotte Adams' recipes for eye openers that send a worker off well fortified. Use home fats in place of commercial shortening, if possible. Bacon Muffins Two cups flour, 3 teaspoons baking powder, i teaspoon salt, 1 egg, 1 cup milk, 2 tablespoons melted shortening, 3 slices crisp bacon. Mix and sift dry ingredients. Crumble bacon into the mixture and stir. Add milk, beaten egg, and melted shortening. Mix Just enough to dampen flour.

MALCOLM EPLEY that sort of thing here, but the two fortress-type planes at low the city the other evening has aroused considerable public concern and com' ment. Who was flying the planes, where they came from and where they were going, presumably is military Information. But there was no question in the mind of any observer as to whether they were far too low for safety. Thrilling as was the spectacle, it made us realize that these complaints from other cities have been definitely justifiable. It would be interesting to know, at any rate. the planes which paid us a visit were giving the town a low zooming under in structions, or took it upon themselves to thrill the populace. a A Workar Leaves Us DON DRURY. who leaves Klamath Falls Wednesday to take an important position in connection with the plywood industry in Mex ico, has had an active civic career here, and his steady contributions to the upbuilding and wel fare of the community will be missed. When Mr. Drury, a few years ago, came here to manage the Kalpine Plywood company, he reasoned that this, henceforth, was his home town, and he was going to do everything he could for it. He familiarized himself immed iately with the community and its surround ings. He drove the back roads. . He entered actively into the work of various constructive civic organizations. He did everything he could for Klamath Falls, and that was considerable. Others might well emulate his reasoned, deliberate personal effort to go all out for. the town and the area in which he made his home and his living. In a community such as ours there is much work to be done. Too many people sit by and let a few, like Don Drury, carry most of the burden. The workers enjoy the job, but if , there were more like them, how much more could be accomplished! (and he is unofficially reported to have Issued such an order already), it would open up possi bilities which the allies could scarcely ignore. In any event, it would be folly for the nazi gangster to disregard the contingency of an early assault through the Balkans. . v Small Chance HOWEVER, even if Italy doesn't make a quick surrender and thus end the whole show, the nazi forces which are cooped up in the northeast corner of Sicily have small chance of holding out long. With General Montgom ery's veteran eighth army smashing at the German left wing in the vicinity of Catania, and our hard-boiled General Patton's seventh army advancing on the right flank, it can be only a short time before the Hitlerites col lapse. ' -! Should Hitler be compelled to pull back his front in Russia, the first withdrawal presum ably would be to the line of the. great river Dnieper, which empties into the Black sea at Odessa. That would bring his right wing anchor close to Rumania, which he hopes un doubtedly with much misgiving will go on fighting for him and continue to provide the only source of natural oil left to him. It has been the fuehrer's plan that Rumania, Bulgaria and Hungary should stand in the way of an allied invasion up the Balkans. But his hold on these small satellites was getting shaky even before the collapse of Mussolini Fear has kept them fairly well in line, but their courage to revolt has grown stronger as the reich has become weaker. The debacle in Rome will further strengthen their resistance to Hitler. Thus if the Germans should be compelled to start a withdrawal, it might not stop long at the Dnieper but continue clear back into Poland.

Dr. Masters' Health Column Canker-Sores Source, Recommended Treaiment By DR. THOMAS D. MASTERS At some time or other, nearly everyone is annoyed by the dis comfort of canker-sores. Some people are so unfortunate as to have them with a frequency and intensity that is very painful and even nerve-wracking. Speech becomes burdensome, and the strain involved In enduring the soreness sends many sufferers into seclusion a retreat hardly justified by the condition's se riousness1, but a sore temptation nevertheless. Despite the pain one can live through canker- sores, and enlist the help of his physician in solving the mystery of their origin, without being ab sent from the job. Canker-sore is the term In gen eral used to describe a type of stomatitis which is characterized by the formation ot one or more small vesicles on the inner sur face of the cheeks, the lips tongue, or gums. The vesicle is symptomless and rarely recog nized, but it ruptures promptly and leaves a small, round or oval erosion or shallow ulcer. SOURCE OF CANKER This ulcer has a gray base and Is surrounded by a zone of red' ness. With the formation of the ulcer, pain or tenderness devel ops. The ulcer requires a week or 10 days to heal. Such ulcers may be single or multiple, and their occurrence rare or habit ual. Canker-sores are the result of several conditions, most of which are unknown. They are some times associated with gastro-in testinal disturbances, like indi gestion or constipation. With the present vogue for allergy some have been explained on the basis of idiosyncracy to such foods as chocolate or oatmeal. The ulcer that follows injury from a sharp, ragged tooth or denture, or from biting the cheek or gum, resembles in appearance and behavior the typical canker sore. Occasionally, and particu larly when they occur in groups, these ulcers may be due to virus and are similar to the so called "cold-sore," or herpes sim plex. FOLLOW FEVER Canker-sores are also occasion al sequels to illnesses Involving Prisoner Removal Urged By Clan CHICAGO, July 27 (Pi Re moval ot American sick and wounded war prisoners captured in the Philippines to Russia through intercession ot the so viet government with Japan was urged upon President Roosevelt yesterday in a telegram from the Maywood-Bataan clan. The 100 members of the clan, representing families of men at tached to the 192nd tank battal ion, which was composed of May- wood men, instructed their pres ident, Lt. John Peterson of the Maywood police department, to telegraph the appeal to Mr. Roosevelt The telegram was a repeat of an unanswered letter sent to Secretary of State Hull a month ago. It's fine that some prices have been cut, but too bad that some storekeepers don't read. Friendly Helpfulness To Every Creed and Purse Ward's Klamath Funeral Homo Mrs. A. A.

They seem to occur with unusual frequency in the pres ence of certain types of anemia. With women, they may occur in association with menstruation. The habitual sufferer from canker-sores should consult his physician, who will examine him generally, make studies of the gastro-intcstinal tract, the blood and urine, and seek to discover some physical disturbance which is in need of correction. Some times nothing more significant will be found than an irregular or rough tooth, which chronical ly Irritates the cheek or tongue. Those who have a rare canker sore may obtain some relief and hasten healing by the application of an 8 per cent solution of silver-nitrate to the ulcer, or touch ing the ulcer with alum until it begins to pucker.

(To the Editor) The published in quiry a few days ago about pumice stone Is a reminder that the vast deposit north of Klam ath Falls, extending over ait area of more than a hundred square miles and ot undeter mined average depth, is deserv ing of community attention in present and post-war pliiiining. Ill the pint, pumice has been used chiefly for abrasive pur poses such as cleaning and scouring compounds, and hand soups in an amount cstiimitcd at 50,000 tons a year. The next important use Is in concrete mixtures, pumice-concrete building blocks, etc. Recently it has been used suc cessfully in certain kinds of glass munufacturo and In col ored glazes for roofing tilo, wall tilo and low priced pottery. Be cause of its low cost, pumice Is expected to replace feldspar for this purpose, it may be quar ried by the ordinary low cost methods while feldspar Is mined the more expensive way. Mineral reports say very lit tle about the great pumice de posit in Klamath county, which should get mention along with the publicity given to tho pum ice deposits ot Kansas and Ok lahoma, referred to as sources ot abundant supplies.
