FOR DRUGS IMPROVES RESISTANCE TO DICTATORSHIP (Continued From Page One) were Skagen, Jhoerning, Saeby, Aalborg, Viborg, Aarhus, Gre- naa, Fredericia and Svenborg. Extraordinary efforts were taken to prevent spread of the strikes to other industrial centers. The strikes ' indicated the Danes were uncowed by threats of drastic penalties, including death, under Von Hannecken's martial law decree instituted be fore dawn Sunday, when he stripped the government of Pre mier Eric Scavenius of all power and sent a nail captain to tell King Christian, "you are my prisoner." Outside Government With the sovereign and the government, which resigned within a few hours, apparently powerless, Danish citizens liv ing in Stockholm expressed oe lief that political leaders outside Denmark would form a free Dan ish government in London and ally it formally with the United Nations. Free Danish leaders headed by Christmas Moeller have been functioning in London, but un til now had no authority to ex ercise Eovernmental powers, The nazi overlords recognized the threat of Moeller's influence in Denmark by immediately ar resting most of the leaders of his conservative party. State of War Danish legal experts in Swed en took the view today that a state of war now exists between Germany and Denmark since the military dictatorship powers which Von Hannecken says he is applying under article 42 of the Hague convention can be ex ercised only by an enemy lorce. Confronting Von Hannecken was an abdication threat from King Christian. Refugees re ported the king said he would step .down if . the Germans ar rested Danes as hostages in con nection with battles, sabotage or other disturbances. Denmark'smost popular and influential figure, he maintained that innocent persons should not be arrested. .

EDITORIALS ON NEWS (Continued From Page One) part of Italy the Germans intend to hold, the harder they fight back:) QN the rumor side today, a German foreign office mil itary spokesman tells a Swedish correspondent that our side is making new invasion prepara tions in the Mediterranean. He says fleets of allied transports, Invasion barges and warships are being gathered in Tunisia, in Sicily and at Oran, and adds that 300,000 -French troops are as sembled at Oran. He suggests that we re getting ready for an attack on southern Italy or Med iterranean France. It might be. QHURCHILL, speaking in Can ( ada today, says we 'won't launch any second front On the Atlantic wall of Europe UNTIL MILITARY SUCCESS IS CER TAIN. We're not going to spend men's -lives recklessly, he adds, in an abortive second front for political purposes. (One guesses he's talking to Stalin.) - fHURCHILL repeats that the Quebec conference was con cerned principally with "inflam ing" war against Japan with whom Russia is NOT at war, so that Russian .representation at Quebec would have been embar rassing to the soviet. ' He expresses again the hope for a United Nations conference at'which Russia WILL be repre sented. 'J'HERE'S obviously a screw loose with British-American AFTER THE WAR relations with Russia. Why and. what about? This writer doesn't KNOW, but suggests that you take a look at the map of Russia pre ferably on your globe, which tells the whole story. ' Note Russia's vast LAND ex tent. Then note the scarcity and the inefficient and unsatisfactory location of her PORTS. ! The greatest (in land area) na tion on earth has the FEWEST AND POOREST ports. "pHIS port situation has been a sore thumb with Russia for well over a century. Her desire for WARM WATER ports has entered into every peace confer ence in recent history. Invariably, Russia has been DONE DIRT In her warm water port aspirations. Quite frequently it has been Britain who did the dirt. ' TT'S a fair guess that THIS A TIME Stalin is going to HAVE what Russia wants and needs in the way of porta (and other facilities) and isn't making ANY commitments in advance that might result in tangling him up and preventing him from get ting what Russia has so often before been prevented from get ting. 3RD RECORD DAY!

More Expected There were, too, besides the registered students, about 75 pupils not yet enrolled, and it was the expectation that by Wednesday the total high school enrollment would be about 1100. Should this happen, the total enrollment in all city schools will be slightly higher than in 1942. Elementary school figures were 1570 against 1497 last year. The Junior high school at Fremont, composed entirely of eighth grade pupils, enrolled 194 students today against 202 a year ago. Conger Grades This year Conger school will for the first time include only the grades from one to six, all seventh graders from that dis trict going to Fremont. Especially excited today were the small first graders, going to school for the first time. Both timid and yet proud that they were big enough to be go ing, the little children, some alone and some accompanied by parents, trooped to the vari ous school buildings dressed in their best suits or dresses and ribbons. Older students went back to school, most of them complain ing that their vacation was all too. short, but still rather glad to be back to the old routine and their classmates. Tuesday's official school open ing was preceded by a Joint city and county teachers' meet ing Monday at which state edu cation officials. Rex Putnam, Dr. Frank Parr and Joy Hills spoke. Stock Feeding Operation Uses Farm By-Products (Continued on Page Two) of cattle from the Fort Klamath country. - Unfamiliar Machine Travelers in the big grain country - on Tula t and Lower Klamath lakes may have noticed recently an unfamiliar' machine moving over the stubble fields behind the big combines harvest ing the barley down there. This is a mobile hay chopper, used previously in California but Introduced for the first tune into this basin by the Malin Feeding company. The choppers are be ing used extensively this year in straw salvage. Straddles Row Pulled by a tractor, the chop per straddles a windrow of straw or hay. It picks up the material, chops it and blows It Into a de tachable trailer. The' trailers will hold six tons of chopped straw and from six and one-half to seven tons of hay.. Max Jacobson, manager of Ma lin Feed, has two of these chop pers in operation. There are six trailers, so that the choppers lose no time between loads, When a trailer is filled, it is hauled away to the Malin feed lots. One man, the driver of the tractor, operates the whole out fit. Piled in Opea The chopped straw - Is piled with an elevator in the open at Malin, and is salted to prevent combustion, A crust forms on the outside of the straw pile and protects it from the weather. This straw ' will be fed, straight, for bulk. The. Malin company will feed grain 'separ ately, using corn and wheat. The company has contracted for 200 cars of government wheat, and will get 90 cars of corn from Iowa, laid down at Malin at $48 a ton. Fattens Stock There are 2800 head of cattle in the Malin corrals at present. The firm buys 2-year-om Here- fords, making extensive cattle purchases locally and shipping the fattened stock to the Acme Packing company at Seattle. The animals are not held more than 90 days. In good weather, a gain of 21 pounds a day is noted. Some steers are fattened to a weight of 1800 pounds, but the average is around 1500 pounds. The Malin Feeding company employs 15 men.

Second Front, Meeting Stalin (Continued From Pago One) , that it will be bocauso we are satisfied that there is a good prospect of continuing success and that our soldiers are ex pended in accordance with sound military plans and not squander ed for political considerations of any kind. Churchill said a tripartite meeting among Britain, the United States and Russia "would be of very great advantage to everyone, and indeed to the whole free world, If our unity of thought , and decision upon practical measures to the longer future as woll as upon strategic problems could be reached be tween the three great opponents of the Hltlcrito tyranny. Italy's Penalty Turning to beleaguered Italy, Churchill said: "Mussolini has been over thrown. The war Impulse of Italy has been destroyed and that unhappy country is paying a terrible penalty for allowing Itself to be milled by false and criminal guides. How much eas ier it is to join bad companions than to shake them! ' Churchill said a large number of German troops had lately been drawn from France "in or der to hold down the Italian peo ple" and to mBko Italy a battle ground so as to keep tho war as far distant from Germany and as prolonged as possible. Nasi Airforca By far the greatest part of the German airforce, he said, he had drained from the Russian front and is now being engaged and "worn down with ever grow ing Intensity night and day by British and American and Canad ian airmen." Russian Aid Churchill said he was frank to admit that the terrific punish ment inflicted on Hitler's -war machine in North Africa, Sicily and Europe would have been largely Impossible "but for the valiant and magnificent triumphs of the Russian army. The Russians, he continued, "have defended their native soil against an evil and unprovoked attack with incomparable vigor, skill and devotion and at a ter rible price in Russian blood. Grave Injuries "No government ever formed among men has been capable of surviving Injuries so grave and terrible as those inflicted by Hit ler upon Russia. "But under the leadership of Marshal Stalin, and thanks also to the stand made by the British people when they were all alone, and to abundant British and American supplies and munitions of all kinds, Russia has not only survived and recovered from these frightful injuries but has Inflicted, as no other force in the world could have inflicted,' mortal damage In the German army machine." Heat Up Jap War As to the allies' enemy in the far Pacific, Churchill disclosed that a large part of the Quebec conference was devoted to "heat ing and inflaming . the war against Japan." Therefore, he said,' it would have been most awkward for Russia, linked in non-aggression pact with Ja- NEW TODAY CARROLL bllWl UMN WTj I pan, to have been represented at Quebec, "The main forces of the United States and the manhood of Aus tralia and New Zealand are en gaged In a successful grapple with the Japanese In the Pa cific," ho said. Praises Mountbatten Churchill praised Vice Admir al Lord Louis Mountbatten, 43-year-old new suprome allied commander in southeast Asia. "He Is what at present I will venture to call a complete trl- phlblan that is to say, a crea ture equally at home in three elements: earth, air and water, and also well accustomed to fire." Hinting at forthcoming oper ations against Japan, Churchill said, "We all wish the new com mand and its commander (Mount batten) full success In their novel, varied and moat difficult task." WASHINGTON, Aug. 31 m President Roosevelt said today that things were coming along pretty well with respect to a trl-partlto conference with Rus sia and Great Britain, and at the same time he singled out for criticism a newspaper columnist who had said Secretary Hull and other high state department of ficials were anti-Russian. PEZET RESPONSIBLE Fl PANAMA, Aug. 31 IP) Dr. Jose Pczct, former vice president in the regime of Arnulfo Arias and a former Panamanian am bassador to Costa Rica, took sole responsibility today for an abor tive revolt against the govern ment of President Adolfo de La Guardia.
