TJERE is this writer's idea of what is basically wrong with this lumber situation and so many other situations, now and in the past, on the home pro duction front: Instead of a GOVERNMENT OF LAWS, we now have in this country a GOVERNMENT OF M E N. Impartially enforced laws apply to ALL OF US EQUALLY. Decisions MADE BY MEN are SHADED by per sonal friendships, by personal political ambitions by so many. many PURELY PERSONAL con siderations. For these fundamental reasons. decisions made by men DO NOT APPLY EQUALLY TO ALL OF US. Some of us are favored. Some of us are discriminated against. AS long as we have a govern ment of men, these discrim inations will continue. The only way to get away from them- is to go back, sincerely and whole heartedly, to a GOVERNMENT OF LAWS. (Continued from Page One) both countries to be friends and referred to the "marked depart ures from conceptions which were held years ago for reasons we can all understand." Peace Terms He reported that peace terms had been offered Romania by Russia and described them as remarkably generous m many respects, saying they "made no suggestions of altering the stan dards of society in that country." Similarly, ne said -the soviet had been "very patient" with Fin land. Churchill ranged the Japanese with the Germans as those who must give in without condition suggesting that all satellite axis powers might perhaps escape with lighter sentences. Specifi cally, though diplomatically, he warned both Spain and Turkey the last big neutrals in the Medi terranean area that allied vic tory was coming in the Balkans with or without the support of new recruits. Report on Premiers Churchill' brought to parlia ment a report on' the recently concluded talks of the premiers in London a conference at which, he said, they arrived "at the core of an agreement which will enable the British empire and commonwealth to meet in discussion with other great pow ers in the world in a firmly knit array." He told commons that the al lies, after giving Turkey $80, 000,000 worth of American and British arms "have suspended the process of trying 'to exhort Turkey to range herself with the victorious united powers." Generous Gesture He called Turkey's recent sus pension of chrome shipments to the nazis a "generous gesture," but made clear it would not win her "a strong position at the peace table which she would have had had she joined the al lies." Turning to the battle ground of the Mediterranean, the pre mier asserted the "fate of Italy is indeed terrible" and said he found it difficult "to nourish ani mosity against, the Italian peo ple." Churchill had 'praise for the new Italian government, saying it is "facing its responsibilities manfully, doing all In Its power to aid the allies In their ad vance."

Portiead, Oreooat 2& TO S Establishment of a reserve fund for future building and ex pansions, at the rate of $60,000 a year for five years, will be considered by the Klamath Union high school board and budget committee at a meeting next Monday night, it was disclosed to chamber of commerce direc tors today by Arnold Gralapp, city school superintendent. The elementary school dis trict board has decided upon a five-year $20,000 a year reserve fund program. Both matters will be before the voters of the dis tricts at the June school elec tions. Stat Movemant These proposals are in Una with a statewide movement to build now financial reserves for post-war development on a pay- as-you-go basis, avoiding debt in currence later under tighter money conditions. The county school board has also initiated such a project. Gralapp explained to the cham ber directors a suggested future plan for educational develop ment nere which, it carried out. would divide the schools here on a 6-4-4 basis and would sup plant a junior college plan. New Program Under this program, elemen tary schools would house the first six grades. Seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth grades would comprise a junior high school. Eleventh, twelfth, thirteenth and fourteenth grades two years above the present high school would comprise the third and nienest institution, which pre sumably would occupy the pres ent high school plant. unis would make possible the offering of educational work here above the present high school level, and emphasis could De placed on vocational train ing, already well founded in the local high school. Only about 17 per cent of the high school graduates here now go on to col lege, whereas it is expected much greater number would get additional education if it could be offered in this community. The program, Gralapp explained. would in into tne euort to be made to offer educational ad vantages to returning service men. Explains Plan Gralapp explained this plan in connection with the post-war financial reserve program, indi cating what may lie ahead for education here and what its ad ditional financial needs may be. The $60,000 a year reserve sched ule, however, will not be tied to any particular program, but will build up reserves for inevi table needs, whatever they may be in particular, he said. No additional taxation will be necessary to raise the $60,000 a year because Klamath Union high school district has been rais ing that amount for bonded debt service, no longer necessary. The district is just about "out of the woods" on its debt program, and the money heretofore used in paying off debts can now be raised to build the reserve. Elementary Dabt The elementary school district still has a considerable indebted ness to pay off, and $20,000 a year was considered as suffi-, cient to attempt to raise in that district for the post-war reserve. The chamber board went on record as endorsing the estab lishment of the reserve fund scneauie.

A nazi airfield at Graz was pound ed by Liberators which also struck Zagreb, a focal point of enemy rail supply arteries be tween northern Italy and the Balkans.

Dr. George Bernard Noble, chairman of the nth- regional war labor board, commented that the WLB will not resume consid eration of the situation until the men return to work. "That is established policy," he said. , Shutdown Forecast A comnleto shutdown of log ging operations In the Puaot Sound area around Seattle, Ta- coma and uiympia was forecast by nightfall by Hildlng Llndberg, operator oi two logging camps already closed. Some boom workers already were idle In Tacoma where 4500 AFL and CIO lumber union members quit 'to close a dozen mills. Booms Close Men at four large log booms on tho Willamette river, In Ore gon, stopped 'work. Logging operations in eastern Linn coun ty, where logs are shipped to Portland, closed down; and Ches ter F. Sorcnson, chairman of the Pacific Northwest Loggers' as sociation, said lack of boom facilities would force closure of other logging operations. Every large mill in Portland already was closed. Only a small sawmill remained in operation. In Spokane, 1300 workers in 15 plants voted to "go fishing" today. Not Authorised The general walkout by both AFL and CIO union members was not authorized by union leaders who appealed for the men to stay on the job. Tho work stoppage was in protest of the war labor board's denial of requested wage increases. The AFL had asked for an hourly minimum wage of $1.05, a 15 cent increase. From Washington came a di rective order from the war labor board stating its decision in the industry-wide disputes in the Pacific northwest were not "rare and unusual cases" justifying a wage increase above that which could be justified under normal standards. Col. Walter DeLong, Washing ton state director of selective service, warned the workers who engaged in the walkouts that they would face a change in their draft status. Ha said he didn't care what the walkout was about. Al Whitman, the nation's OPA fuel rationing director, declared a full shutdown of northwest sawmills meant a loss of about 25.000 cords of wood daily. He said the closure would vi tally affect the already critical fuel supply situation. OKAY, SAYS BIDDLE (Continued from Page One) tive "may be guided according ly." "No attorney general In ad vising the president," he said, "can do more than Interpret the law as he sees it, trusting to the courts to correct him if he is wrong and to congress to make any changes in the law which it deems wise." Sustain Ruling Biddle asserted that he be lieves the courts would sustain his ruling, adding, "It may be that as a result of these hear ings this committee will believe that certain changes should be made in the provisions of the war laoor disputes act. Amplifying his reference to the president's authority in the aDsence oi a specitic statute, the attorney general said: "Although I relied, in the first instance, upon the provi sions of the war. labor disputes act, I also believed that with out regatd to. the - statute '.the president had the authority to take over the plants and facili ties ' of Montgomery Ward- and to operate them in the interests of the war effort."
