yesterday in the Humptulips
Sheriff M. B. Taylor said a
search warrant was found in
Handron's pocket permitting him
to search Strube's automobile. It
contained the allegation that
Handron believed the car was
being used to transport elk meat
illegally.
Strube and his wife, said Dep
uty Sheriff George Hastings of
Montesano, have been operating
a small garden on their ranch in
the area in partnership with an
other man.
Strube, said Deputy Hastings,
gave this account of the shooting.
Strube, carrying his .22 auto
matic rifle, was about to return
to his car with some vegetables
when his dog made a disturb
ance in the brush and Strube
went in about 100 feet to investi
gate. As he climbed over a
windfall log, a man, who had a
piece of brush on his hat, rose
up and fired.
"His first shot hit me and
knocked me down," the deputy
quoted Strube as saying. "He
shot again twice, but both
missed."
He could only see the other
man's head, he said, but he shot
several times in quick succession.

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

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. .

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

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.

This writer doesn't KNOW,

ferably on your globe, which

891 of these were youngsters
from this district and 123 are
from outlying communities such
as Keno.
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.

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.

Churchill Talks. 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

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

other high state department of
ficials were anti-Russian.
