We have no concern, on that score, so far as the military machine is concerned. The men who have fought the HiUer onslaught to a standstill and turned it back are smart enough to press every advantage when the enemy wavers. But it's easy to get fatheaded on the home front when good news comes from the battle lines. It's easy to fall back Into old ways of peacetime to slow up on production, to grow indifferent to those phases of the war effort that require time, attention, and sacrifice on the part of home people. It happens right here. August war bond sales have slumped. Surgical dressing making News Behind ihe News By PAUL MALLOM WASHINGTON, Aug. 25 There Is not the slightest evidence In the Russian military situation to suggest she could consider a sep arata peaceor, indeed, any thing other than unconditional surrender. The fall of Kharkov has been explained in a very tired way by the Germans as a withdrawal "according to plan." The truth is the city was the last key to the whole nazl line of defense. The city itself is probably in ruins and of little physical value, but its acquisition by 1: MALLON the Russians opens up a lateral behind-the-lines railroad from Moscow through Orel and Kursk to Kharkov, a switching point which branches out in all directions to the south. The Russians now no doubt will strike In a southwestern direction from Kharkov to threat en the long nazi triangle running along the Black sea to a tip at Taganrog. The Russians are in a position to cut off this sector, and the Caimans, no doubt, will have to evacuate it. Their policy all along the line lately has been to put up a strong fight, holding strategic places as long as possible. But, when faced with extinction now they no longer fight for hopeless positions but withdraw to save men. No nazis have been trapped by the Russians this year. No good defensive position now remains for them east of the Dnieper river. When they return to that, they will be nearly out of Russia. Plenty of time remains before winter for the Russians to effect this result Fighting around Kharkov last year continued until December snows. Russian drives for Bryansk and Smo lensk may be hampered by weather before then, but the vital southern front is no where . near closing. The eager movement of Russian troops up to Kharkov showed no sign of weariness in men or material. While we have no military ob servers on the Russian front continuously (trips to the front have been allowed from time to time during the past eight months), authentic reports inspire an expectation that there is a chance that the Russians will Bow pick up speed.

Now is the time to strain more Intensely than ever for victory. Our is not lust the fighting men and the battle fronts. It is also a great, working America, standing up behind those fighting units with everything we've got. Certainly, the end is inevitable. But the end will come sooner, and thousands of the lives of our men will be saved, it we give the struggle our fU punch now. We can't let partial success turn our heads. sft;t Our Young Gardeners KLAMATH'S young victory gardeners will display their prize products at the victory garden show at Altamont school on Saturday. This week, the judges are going through the gardens. As a feature of the Saturday show. The Herald and News will present a cash prize to the Victory Garden king or queen among the 4-H boys and girls of the county. This contest supplanted the potato growing contest last year, when victory gardens became so Important Many outstanding potato grow ing records were made by the potato kings of other years. Young victory gardeners promise to do equally well In their chosen field. Klamath's prospects for a great agricultural future are enhanced by the fine boys and girls who already are doing big things in garden ing, crop farming and livestock breeding. Satur day's show offers opportunity to see some practical results of one phase of the farm youth program. for the final Kharkov action, but that was a minor matter. Naturally, the German general staff recog nizes that unless this speed Is broken by re sistance in last-stage fights at key points, the German cause is hopeless. Naturally also, the nazis would turn to thinking of a separate peace . either with Britain and the United States on one hand, or with Russia on the other. Peace Proposals AS NO apparent separate peace proposals have been made to us, it is reasonable to suppose HiUer has been working on the Rus sians. Russian acceptance, however, is. un thinkable because it would mean perpetuation of the nazi military reeime in most of Enrnne and really only an armistice before another aiiacK in a year or iwo By either party. In view of the military situation, Russia does not need a breathing spell and cannot afford to grant one to Germany. These Moscow diplomatic maneuvers are quite another thing (recall of Litvinoff, pro testing about a second front, etc.). The mystical Russian foreign policy always Is designed pri marily to keep everyone guessing. When we drag out our crystal balls and try to read the meaning of any Moscow move, (in war now or In peace later), we are not apt to get the right answer, but are only likely to confuse ourselves. Russian Objectives NEVER forget this: Stalin never moves In a direct line to ward objectives. He can drop Litvinoff one day, pick him up the next, never explaining either move to his people as our statesmen must, but only confusing the rest of the world while he moves in a zigzag line toward what he alone knows and wants. Our people have been worried for months that Russia would make a separate peace, much more worried than has been publicly admitted. Such a peace would be disastrous to our current prospects, might make a war of 8 or 10 years, or even eventually lose it for us. They know Stalin is Justly angry at the delay In the second front, for he has told visiting statesmen we could well afford to lose a million men in a futile stab at western Europe, be cause It would bring full collapse of Germany on the Russian front. If not elsewhere. But those who read the crystal ball, seeking sure answers to mystical Russian diplomacy, can be sure only of one answer that is what they are supposed to do, keep on guessing.

B'lS not worth getting up any more when they go out to party I Dr. Masters' Health Column Nausea Not Uncommon in Early Months of Pregnancy By DR. THOMAS D. MASTERS During the first three months of pregnancy, more than one- half of all women experience some degree of nausea and vom iting. This discomfort is usu ally mild and transient, but oc casionally it is so severe that vig orous steps must be taken to pre vent starvation or the serious loss of fluids from the body. In the mildest form, this condition is characterized by a slight feel ing of nausea and a sense of re pugnance for foods. Rarely the nausea precludes the taking of any food, and vomiting is so per sistent that emaciation and se vere fluid-loss develop. The on set usually occurs in about the sixth week of pregnancy, al though it may take place earlier. The condition may last only a few weeks, or persist for three or four months. ' As a rule, the symptoms are concluded by the time the first third of pregnancy is passed. There appears to be no rela tionship between this condition and the age, race, or number of pregnancies of the woman. It is reported to be very rare in China, where in general the level of diet and sanitation are inferior to ours, and the In cidence of some complicating in fection is higher. CAUSES UNKNOWN The specific cause of nausea and vomiting of pregnancy is still unknown. Many theories as to Its origin have been ad vanced. One of the oldest of these claims that the symptoms have psychic origin, and are a perverted effort on the part of the unconscious mind to reject the state of pregnancy. The rela tive frequency of the disease among women with leisure time and the successful results ob tained by psychotherapy have been advanced as proof of this theory. At present, it is a more general belief that the nervous element Is an aggravating fac tor, and serves to mask the actual cause. Chemical tests have shown that the disturbance is associated with Injury to the liver. The demands of the baby for car bohydrate are great at this time. and the liver may be depleted of its carbohydrate reserve. It is well-known that the exhaustion of the sugar supplies in the liver prevent that organ from func tioning normally or protecting itself and the body against the action of various toxins. GLUCOSE SOLUTIONS AID When vomiting begins, a vi cious circle is established, be cause the carbohydrates are fur ther exhausted, and the opportu nity for their replacement is di minished. The use of a high car bohydrate diet when the condi tion is mild, or the administra tion of glucose solutions by vein frequently terminates the vomit- DANCE SAT.

There are numerous similari ties between the severe case of vomiting of pregnancy and con ditions due to lack of vitamin B. Pregnancy increases the de mand for this vitamin, and with so many diets containing the minimum vitamin B require ments, it is possible that the added burden of pregnancy pre cipitates vitamin B deficiency. With the onset of nausea and vomiting of pregnancy, a woman is justified In seeking rest in the most pleasant environment pos sible, and a diet high in carbo hydrate, with an excess of vita- Warm i.y.y."aar- V iiijjltmi&-kLil IJVaaaaiaatai ' Vi'mM.JL'i . .I.:..

MM The War Today By DeWITT MacKENZIE This columni.it once consulted the Delphic Oraclo at the shim mering base ot Mount Piirnnssus In Greece, and came awny with mora concreto Information than was disclosed by Messrs Roose velt and Churchill in their full dress press conforrnco on tho promontory of Quebec at the close of their momentous parley. The allied pair did a hlfthly polished job of playing their cards awfully eloso to their chests each after his own fashion. FDR went through the ordeal quite Impassively, so we are told by Associated Press Correspondent John M. Hlgh towcr, while tho prime, minister fidgeted. The puckish (need John Bull crossed and rccrosscd his legs, loosened his collar, mopped his forehead, and "once ho got a firm hold on a half-smoked clgnr nd hurled it fur out over the bluffs of the St. Lawrence river." Having observed Mrj Churchill at . close range in London over many years, I wonder whether he really was fidgety, or whether he was putting on one of his lit tle shows for the boys. I have a suspicious mind. Smooth Speeches Both men made smooth speeches, but neither disclosed much. However, joking aside, we didn't want them to do a lot of talking for the benefit of the enemy. What really matters la that tho conference radiated supreme confidence, and we know from past experience that another big Job has been well dono. Tho two leaders did emphasize that the allied war machine Is grind ing ahead and that great events are impending. That's some thing satisfactory to get ahead with. Jap Offensive One of the most Interesting and likely important points brought out was that since the Quebec conversations had much to do with planning the offensive against Japan, Russia wasn't in- mln B.

Tlint did Indlcato, however, that a conference among the big three rtiiK.iln, America and Brit ain is projected, and that's of vast importance for complete understanding. Speaking of the second front, FDR Introduced a line of thought which Interested the press greatly. Ho pointed out that offensives can't be put Into effect ovor night, and cited that what was planned In June ot 1042 wasn't effective until No vember. That was tho invasion of North Africa. The plana made at Casablanca In January of 1043 didn't materialize until Tunisia and Sicily.

(To the Editor) While a resident of Klamoth county for about seven yours I have been rather Interested In the attitudes of people, and In conjunction with this, I well remember reading In your column, 'Telling the Editor," tho many letters at tho outbreak of war, from the boys In tho service, commenting up on, and thanking the people of Klamath county for their hos pitalities and kindness during their short stay. We all Mo often skip over such expressions as just politeness on tho receiver's part, but occasion ally It comes home to ourselves. and then wo become fully con-Vf sclous of the kindness given. It was my good fortune to visit Klamath county tho first two weeks ot August, after having been in southern California for about seven months, and I would like to voice my appreciation of tho many courtesies shown me at that time. Space will not per mit mo to mention the names of the many friends who were so good to me, but I know that I had a few pangs of regret for having to leave. While en route to southern California via bus, I could not help but look west down the Klamath river and wonder just how soon I would be back to again eat chicken at Largents. But after this mess Is all cleaned up I somehow know that I will be back to stay, homo. Sincerely yours, ' HARRY R. BOYD Huntington Park, Calif. Courthouse Records Marriages FUGATE - CARKHUFF.
