umrV nmnosed for commun-
EPLET ities of the size ana cnaracier
of Klamath Falls and Klamath county.
This group held a mobilization Friday night,
and today we presume to speak for the com
munity in paying our respects to these loyal
men and women. Nearly 1000 of them turned
cut in response to the mobilization call. It was
a test of the personnel strength of civilian
defense here, and our people came through
most satisfactorily.
We may never need the full strength of
civilian defense forces here to meet the local
emergency. We hope no such Incident ever
happens. But it can happen, so long as this
country is at war, and it is vitally important
that there be local preparation to meet it. It
certainly means a aireat deal to the people of
this community that nearly 1000 of our citizens
re ready to respond if anything happens.
Local fear of a serious emergency, so ap
parent lust after Pearl Harbor, long ago sub
sided. During this long period when "nothing
happened," it has not been easy to maintain
Interest in civilian defense work. That nearly
1000 persons responded to the mobilization call
Thursday night is an amazing tribute to the
determined loyalty of our civilian defense work
ers. They have refused to be lulled into a feel-"
ing of security that could be proved false in ;
the' twinkling of an eye.
California Politics
THE. nearby district of California is having
run of mid-summer politics as a result
of the death of Congressman Harry Englebright
of the second congressional district.
An election on August 31 will fill the va
cancy left by the late republican whip. Quali
fied as candidates are Mrs. Englebright, the
widow and a republican; State Senator Jesse
. Mayor of Angels Camp, a republican, and State
Senator Clair Engle, Bed Bluff, a democrat.
It is reported that the national democratic
leaders are taking a financial interest in the
campaign. Engle, the democrat, is getting both
state and national monetary support, because
democratic leaders have the idea it would be
good propaganda if a democrat were to succeed
the late republican congressional whip. .Repub
lican big-wigs are reportedly indifferent to the
situation, but may wake up when the demo
cratic purpose is fully realized.
That Touch of Fall
LEE JACOBS, local OPA official who is glad
, he doesn't have to worry about the ration
ing of weather, remaiked to us the other morn
ing that one could already feel a touch of fall
in the air.
That's right, and it provokes the thought
that Klamath people do not always realize how
much better the summer and fall weather is
here than in many other places. We know,
because we've been in some of those other
places this summer.
We had almost forgotten that millions of
Americans sleep in the summer with nothing
over them but a single sheet, if that much,
and get up in the morning completely fagged
out because of a restless, heat-ridden night.
That touch of fall in the morning air, right
in the middle of summer, is great stuff.
How We Stack Up
IN RESPONSE to many questions as to how
Oregon stands up with other states in the
war bond drives, Andy Collier, the war savings
chief for Klamath county has handed us a
table on the June war bond results.
In June, Oregon's sales were 109.7 per cent
of the quota assigned to this state.
That topped every state in the nation! Alaska
and Hawaii did better than Oregon, but not
another state. Most of the states failed to
make their quotas. Southern California got
over the top, but northern California made only
6S.6 per cent of quota. Michigan approached
Oregon's record, and the District of Columbia
made its quota. The others were under 100
per cent.
Oregon is coming through in this phase of
the war effort in a way that should make us

cause people like Andy Collier, and Vera

it's because the people of Oregon are heart-and-soul

Adverthina Roundup
By DELBERT ADDISON
THE country already is being sounded out on
such ideas as the one that the OPA will be
needed much more after the war than it is
w
condition. In that way it is ADDISON
directly antagonistic to advertising.
Advertising is a NATURAL agency for bring
ing prices down. Up until the time of the war
it flourished as part of the system that put
automobiles and refrigerators In the hands of
every family.
The large production of the things we use
will result in ever lower prices ONLY If this
production is accompanied by sale of these
things to people that can use them. Advertis
ing's niche in this system is in the sale of things
to people who can use them.
Don't Forget Competition
THE people who advocate continuing OPA
after the war are looking at the time when
industry will be changing, over from making
war machines to the time when it will be mak
ing things we can use ourselves.
One thing they overlook is that the change
will not come overnight Some things that are
now scarce or unobtainable will creep into the
we know it. It won't be a case
of war conditions today, and hip-hooray, buy
any price tomorrow. Witness the
situation. Sugar will be next.
As these things ease in, OPA should ease
thing that the advocates of a
overlook, however, is competi
tion. As long as a man can manufacture or
grow something in competition with his neigh
be controlled naturally,
Suppose there is a time, immediately after
the war, when there are ten buyers for every
article to be sold. Suppose I manufacture mouse
traps, as do three other guys in the town. And,
let's say that everyone wants traps and the four
of us aren't making them very fast yet.
I'll tell you what I'll do. The minute I can
sell mouse traps for less than any of the other
three, I'll do it. And I'll advertise the fact
(and tell them in the ad that they may have
to wait a bit to get the cheaper Addison trap)
because I want them to look to me ior mouse
traps from now onl
The Unused Car
OUR old friend the auto man whose busi
ness provided the classic example of how
advertising could be used to help bring the
price of a product down to common reach
is in need of help.
Or rather, we look to him for help, to pro
vide us transportation, when actually the best
solution rests with individuals.
It Is estimated that a million cars in the
country are idle. This is one Of the great wastes
of the day. An automobile deteriorates faster,
both mechanically and in sale value, while in
private storage than when it's In use.
Car dealers are advertising to buy cars. So
are individuals. And a million cars are rotting
and corroding in private garages. An individual
can get much more for a used car now than
he'll be able to get when the time comes to
trade it in on a new one.
The price of an unused car put into war
bonds now will draw interest, and will also
speed the day when it will buy another.

Today
By DeWITT MacKENZIE
THE WAR TODAY
By D.WITT MacKENZIE
The red army's double-bar
reled triumph in the capture of
the strategic cities of Orel and
Belgorod - a stupendous feat
which threatens the security of
Hitler's entire thousand mile line
in Russia might rapidly de
velop into a situation which
would produce the "second
front' for which the Muscovites
are again begging.
Of course this is no time for
day-dreams about the possible ef
fects of victories which are part
of a developing operation. How
ever, wishful thinking and hap
hazard speculation are quite un
necessary, since the trend of
events is sufficiently satisfactory
in itself.
Major Defeat
The loss of these two heavily
fortified railway centers is a ma
jor defeat for the nazls as it now
stands, and potentially it s a ca
tastrophe. Whether it actually
will develop into a catastrophe
depends on what reserve
strength the Russians have with
which to follow up their sue
cesses.
Latest reports show the reds
smashing forward with great
striking power to capitalize the
capture of the two key positions.
Should the nazls lose much more
ground in these vital sectors,
their high command would be
compelled to withdraw their en
tire right wing, which is now
anchored on the Sea of Azov,
west of Rostov. This in turn
would force an adjustment of the
rest of the front to the north,
clear to Leningrad. As this col
umn previously has explained, if
the Germans are compelled to
retreat, they likely will fall back
in the first Instance to the line
of the Dnieper river.
Dangerous Operation
Now a withdrawal of this mag'
nitude, under heavy enemy pres
sure, is one of the most difficult
and dangerous operations in war.
It could easily be turned into a
rout.
Thus we have on the eastern
front the most favorable situa
tion which has existed since the
Russo-German war began. Ob
viously it's crying out for allied
development to the limit of our
resources, while the boche is in
grave difficulties.
Second Front Cry
It Is with this thought in mind
that the soviet publication "War
and the Working Classes" again
urges the establishment of a sec
ond front in Europe and that
meant a front in France. Any
statement of this sort in Moscow
naturally has government sane
tion. The 'paper declared that
such a front would "be the key
to victory over Hitler in 183."
This new and great Russian
success, coupled with the rapid
progress of the allied operations
in Sicily, Is calculated, one would
say, to cause the allied command
to check immediately and ser
iously whether now is the mo
ment for the great adventure of
landing an army in France. That
might not fit in with current
plans, but it seems likely that
the allied program is flexible
enough (due to the smoothness
with which things have been go,
ing in the Mediterranean thea
tre) so that a quick change could
be made.

FEW SIGN
TO HELP IN
I
Fifty-two women and girls
and approximately the same
number of men and boys, have
signed up so far for the potato
harvest, according to Andy An
derson of the United States em
ployment service.
"This isn't as many as we had
expected, and not as many as we
had hoped to register by this
time," Anderson said. Ono of the
reasons for somo people falling
to sign up, ho said, was that
many are uncertain as to wheth
er or not they will be here by
the end of September, when the
work will begin.
Last year 2000 to 2800 har
vesters found employment in the
potato fields and this year there
are 6000 acres more under culti
vation. Potato growers have
signed up for some 800 Mexicans,
but this will by no moans take
the place of laborers from this
locality.
It is expected that there will
be fewer people from the valley
coming over here for the potato
harvest because of the restric
tions on travel, so this amount
will have to bo made up from
people In the Klamath basin, An
derson said.
"We'll need lots of workers."
he explained, "and even if we
gel the maximum we hope for
now, we'll still be a little short."
The current surveys division
of tha eenius bureau Is making
a housing survey in Klamath
Falls for the national housing
agency. The survey started to
day and is supervised by the
bureau's representative in Ore
gon, Arthur Damschcn.
It will require about a week
to complete and about 10 peo
ple are employed as enumera
tors. -. '
The purpose Is to ascertain
what space Is available for
dwelling use either as rooms
or complete dwelling units. Ap
proximately 400 carefully se
lected and representative blocks
within tha city limits are used
and each structure thereon
enumerated. Results indicate
whether there is a need for ad
ditional housing facilities or the
reverse a surplus which may
be utilized.
The war has placed added
burdens on housing agencies
and these surveys provide facts
which assist in solving xno proo
lem, Damschen said. Coopera

KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. (To

or patriotism; with tho press

with bureaucratic moguls mak

Yankee brothors In first one

other; one sympathizes with the
man who wondered what hap
pened to the type of American
who should be guarding the
home front in order to protect
the man on tha battlefront.
Every Intelligent person
knows wage and hour disputes
can be settled without work
stoppage if tha leaders so will,
for many a non-union man is
meeting the increased cost of
living and the burdens of war
with far less grumbling and cer
tainly far more consideration for
tha stern-eyed, tight-Jawed men,
most of them little more than
boys, who are hourly giving
their lives that tha Four Free

are any Amerlean-bom Japs
whose sympathies are with this
country, they can easily prove
that by their behavior Instead of
screaming of their rights under
our laws. This is wartime; se
rious, deadly wartime, wherein
sentiment should have no part.
If the Innocent must suffer,
which is the price of war, it
most certainly should not be the
Yankee ones.
Oh yes; there ara still plenty
of red-blooded Americans left
whose hearts and dollars and
sweat and tears will avenge
each and every one of our deaths
on the battlefield tenfold, and
every death under the Samurai

Power From On High

kept to serve the heathen relig

above ancient Corinth. All about
the city sin was for sale in
whatevor form one might ask
it. From tha top families to the
runaway slaves who hid about,
the city was a festering hole.
Into this cesspool of iniquity,
the Holy Spirit sent tho Apos
tle Paul to spread the Gospel, to
open their eyes to a better way
and to turn them from the pow
er of Satan unto God.
God told the Apostlo that he
had many peoplo in Corinth.
But they must hear the Gospel
the Word of Life and by it
tha Spirit would call them out
from their lost state. So It ,am
was that Paul gave the Message 9
and the Spirit did His work.
Many a one was called into be
lief. But being new to the bet
ter life, they were untaught.
They broke into rival cliques,
these new Christians. They fol

others sought out the orator
Apollos. Paul rebukes all this
"What, know ye not that your
body is tho temple of the Holy
Spirit which is in you, which
ye have from God and ye are
not your own."
This is the meaning Suppose
a famous physician came to
your house to heal ono of your
family and you mudo him a
prisoner In a cubby hole up
under the roof7 Not much help
for the family, we should say.
Like that the Spirit of God
the Holy Spirit had takon up
In the human bodies of these '
new converts. Ho had made
their bodies His temple. Let
Him fill His temple to the ut
most; let the Spirit fill them, do
not shut Him up. Let them live
by POWER FROM ON HIGH.
They were indwelt by the Spirit
but they must be INFILLED.
How is It that Dr. Martin
Nlemoellnr is able to stand up
against Hitler these years? Nei
moeller Is making It by POWER
FROM ON HIGH. That is tha
answer for this man who spoke
for God in spite of all.
And you? Ara you saved
but fruitless and running with
the world? From the Instant you
received Christ as Savior tho
Holy Spirit has made your body
His temple. He indwells you.
But He waits to INFILL you.j
Are you restless and Joyjess orV
have you the iwcot peace that
passeth understanding? Dl to
self; be filled with the Spirit;
make it throuRh by POWER
FROM ON HIGH. -
