MALCOLM BPLEY IfaMAiftf Editor Todav's Roundup Mystifying f UUU ".,,(; C IMILARLY, the statem I EPLEY Br MALCOLM EPLEY THURSDAY'S event relating to the dedica tion of the Weyerhaeuser Klamath tree farm marked a new high in a practical public f-s relations program for the lum- jaj--, ber industry here. f7T7 Not often have men In the r.;' m . ... - .... lumber industry wen mo local public into their confi dence as was done in the series of outstanding talks presented Thursday evening. J. P. Weyerhaeuser, who bears a name big in the his tory of lumbering, told of the problems and aspirations ot the industry. He outlined what is being done in the way of research looking to wider uses of forest products, and how this research is being translated into more Intensive manufacturing practices (and more jobs). i At this Juncture, Mr. Weyerhaeuser had a concrete example for his audience the dis closure that a Pres-to-log plant, for the manu facture of a fuel product from waste, is nearing completion at the Weyerhaeuser mill here. , He told how federal taxes take aa high as 81 per cent of the final dollar of earnings, and how this sort of thing, continued, can stifle research and progress. But he said Weyerhaeuser is basing its policies upon an expectation of a re turn to endurable taxes and business freedom commensurate with the responsibilities it is Willing to assume. ; One such responsibility is the conservation of resources that will mean indefinite maintenance of operations. That" is of vital economic im portance to the Klamath community. j This plain language did much, we believe, te clarify the whole situation for the general public. The effects are certain to redound to the good of the Industry. SIMILARLY, the statement of Manager Ralph Macartney ot the Klamath operation did much to take the mystery out ot the company' policies so far as Mr. Average Citizen is con cerned. Mr. Macartney told how and why the com pany has held on to cut-over lands Instead ot letting them go back for taxes as has been done all too often in lumbering communities. He described the present-day methods calling for selective cutting, seed trees, restocking, beetle control cutting, employment of a full-time forester and staff. These things are done at great expense, he said, in order to insure an all-time supply of raw materials for a perman ent wood-working industry in Klamath Falls. Ha said that in the Klamath basin, Man and Nature, working together, can do better than the average in producing second growth pine. He admitted that the present cut is much greater than the natural growth. . When the pressure of cutting for war needs 1 over, a balance will be sought between harvest and crop. At first blush, this might indicate a sub stantial decrease in lumber industry payroll. But the war ha demonstrated the vital national importance of wood, and has called it into many new uses. Private and public laboratories are searching for the new value in western pines. Mr. Macartney asked u to have faith In the chemist' test tube and the engineer' tilde rule. "Though fewer logs will be cut around Klam ath in the future, undoubtedly more will be done to such logs a are taken," he said. "OUR COMPANY EXPECTS TO MAINTAIN A SUBSTANTIAL PAYROLL INDEFINITELY." That was a story that needed to be told, and It needed to be told by the men who told it Thursday night. It did a lot for community morale. We hope it opened a new chapter In the public relations of the whole Industry here. SIDE GLANCES 4& ' 33 MALLOH News Behind the News By PAUL MALLOH WASHINGTON, Aug. 0 The common sup position ot the man in the street here is . that Germany will crack sometime before Christmas and, indeed, some expect to read the news each time they pick up a paper, but it is not as simple a that. . . . 7" ' The necessities ot military secrecy about strategy, both on the nazi side and ours, have somewhat hindered a clear popular understanding of the I precise situation. The German general staff ' now knows the war is lost. There can be no doubt of that In any military rnind. Whatever Hitler and the nazi politicians rday hope, they are fully advised that defeat is, inevitable. : Their strategy has been to fight determined but hopeless delaying actions, first in Tunisia, then in Sicily, possibly next across northern Italy, and so on back. - These -actions are de signed to bring about a limited defeat instead of unconditional surrender. It is logical to expect that they will attempt in the -end to throw themselves into our pro tective custody and may even eventually in vite us to . protect them against bolshevism, which they will falsely claim was all they were fighting anyway. a Their Only Chance THEIK only hope, and apparent purpose, is to create a popular demand for peace in this country by the determined fervor of their last stand resistance.' 'They have failed repeat edly to get such a situation, and will continue to fail, but, , as their only chance lies along that line, ihey' mustrbe expected to pursue it as long as. they, are -able. Our strategy, on the other hand, is to main tain the greatest possible military pressure and hope for an.: internal German break. The Roosevelt-Churchill scheme of war ap parently calls for the devastation of two or three more cities on the scale with which Ham burg was reduced to ruins. That might possibly bring the break. Nothing has ever been conquered by air bombardment in this war except the tiny island of Pantelleria. True also, Britain survived the blitz. It would probably take years of bom bardment for us to reduce every German city to ash, but the comparison and prospects are not convincing point. Tha total bomb loads we have dropped on Hamburg are three or four time aa heavy a the greatest German bomb load dropped on London. Approximately 2300 ton hit Ham burg in a single raid, while the heaviest Ger man load on London was 800 to 700 tons. Our devastation, therefore, can be computed roughly a four times as great a what hap pened to the British capital. Our losses have been unofficially, computed at about four per cent, which not only makes the raid practical, but we can continue to take these losses day after day for month or years because we have unlimited air resources. This is an air war. Less than 10 division of American troop have been in actual, front line fighting, only five (under 78,000 men) in Sicily. It may be" too much to say that we have had more men in combat in tha air than on land because a bomber crew is composed of only 10 men, but certainly as many men of the en forces have been involved if you count ground crews. . It is already apparent even to the Germans that they cannot hope to meet u on this air front, or even adequately defend themselves Our pressure will increase, their resistance will diminish. Uncertain Factor BUT to say they will break this month or this year call for calculation ot an Internal nazi factor we cannot possibly gauge accurately. Their known military strength in Russia sug gests they might possibly stand another winter without retreat to Poland or even to the Dnieper. At any rate, all agree they can rea sonably be expected to stand on some line through the cold month on that eastern land front. It looks like a good time for us to Invade the Balkans now that the Italian garrison divis ions are being withdrawn to Italy, but we must first either reconquer Crete, or Turkey must declare war on our side to open the way. In either event, a blow on that front must take time for preparation. All we can do is maintain the utmost pitch of war pressure through air bombardment, by cautiou and relentless pursuance of the Italian Invasion and by maintenance of a constant threat of a new second front upon the north western European coast, and through the Balkans. Order Against Tpuhy Film Lifted CHICAGO, Aug. 6 OP) A federal court temporary prohibi tion against exhibiting or adver tising the motion picture, "Roger Touhy, Gangster," was lifted today by Judge William H. . Holly who ruled Touhy, im prisoned gangster and kidnaper, had not contended'the film por trayed him falsely. "The petition does not aver that the picture is false," Judge Holly told Touhy's counsel, Irv ing S. Roth. "You don't say what the film represents Touhy as doing; you just present a con clusion that the picture is vic ious." - Oregon Births ""V Ring Up New High Births Ifor Oregon totalled 2312 in June setting a new all time morithly" record for- this atate, according to. this Week's Oregon ' Shrte-Board-of Htalth bulletin.

The War Today By DeWITT MacKENZIE "Glad you dropped in. Major! And Always remember, when the war's over you can have your old lob back in the garage any time you want it! Dr. Masters' Health Column Many Bad Breath Causes Are of Organic Nature By DR. THOMAS D. MASTERS The American public has been made acutely conscious of bad breath. Personal hygiene of all sorts has been the obsession of the American scene, and popu lar standards of cleanliness and good taste have demanded the minimum of offense from hali tosis. In tact, the public knows much more about the effect of bad breath on economics and romance than it knows about the cause or cure of the symp tom. Halitosis is not due to dis turbances in the stomach or colon. The circular muscle that marks the junction of the esophagus with the stomach, and the fact that the walls of the esophagus are In contact with one another, prevent the regurgitation of fluids or gases. Nor does cleansing the mouth always relieve halitosis, because some odors may have their or igin in the respiratory tract and be carried through the mouth or nose with exhaled air. VARIOUS CAUSES The breath may become of fensively laden with the odor of garlic or onions, because the volatile oils that these vege tables contain will adhere to the surfaces within the mouth until they are dissipated by the air that passes. Infections in the lungs or bronchi may be associated with bacterial decomposition of exu date or even lung tissue, with a resulting foul odor, which is discharged by the expired air. Infection in the nose, throat or tonsils associated with a mu copurulent discharge having an unpleasant odor may impart thl ame odor to the breath. Disease of the gum such as pyorrhea, or Vincent's infection, the so-called "trench mouth," is also the source of odors which may pass off in the breath. Dental carles or defects allow food to stagnate In the mouth, and with decomposition offen sive odors are involved. Breath ing through the mouth, especial ly while one is asleep, permits the mucous and food adhering to the rough surface of the tongue, between the teeth, or in the pharnyx, to become dry and decompose with an unsa vory taste as well as bad breath. MOUTH-WASH NO CURE In the presence of fever and certain disturbances in the body-chemistry, such as uremia or the acid intoxication caused by uncontrolled diabetes, the breath is characteristically taint ed. The use of tobacco or the Ingestion of alcoholic beverages impart the odors of these sub stances to the breath. It is obvious, then, that a simple mouth-wash is not a cure-all for halitosis. The actual cause of bad breath must be sought and eliminated. Even if the trouble Is due to nothing DANCE Go Where the Crowd Goes Every Saturday Night 9:00 to 1:00 At K.C.

HER LIMIT SAN FRANCISCO. OP) Her husband was a hefty drinker, said Mrs. Teresa Stadlberger In her divorce complaint but she could overlook that. She said she might also put up with (1) his throwing things at her and (2) ferreting out her hidden pin money to gamble. But it was his taking her ra tioned canned goods and selling them to the neighbors, she said, that forced her to ask the court for dissolution of their 23-year ' marriage. when youthful Indiscretion shocked the more sober minded of his father' subjects. The crown prince outgrew his pench ant for the hot-spots, though, and developed both stability and cap ability.
