Associated Praaa Mambar Audit Bureau Circulation Hi rH Today's Roundup By' MALCOLM EPLEY KIMBALL State Forest is the Ideal name for the new state forest established on the former Yawkey tract near Fort Klamath, and inrhidlnc the once-beautiful and to-be-restored park area around the head of T-2rT3!,3t Wood river. There could be no more fit ting memorial to the late Jack sonF. Kimball than a forest. He was a man who loved trees, whose eye saw things bout them that you and I nvr reencmized- He came to the Klamath country SO years ago when its pine stands were legend among men who talked bout timber, and his span of residence and work covered CPLET the period of great timber industry development ' here. Some saw in his death the symbolic end of an era. For many years, Jack Kimball had charge of the beautiful Yawkey stand of timber as ' representative of the eastern owners. He saw to its preservation and protection from fire, and arranged finally for the harvest of its ripe timber. After that, it was he who announced ' publicly through this newspaper that it had been taken to the state forestry department, to become state forest where the timber would be brought back, where modern methods of reforestation would be tested and practiced, and where a fine recreational area would be developed about the remarkably beautiful head waters of Wood river. What better then, than to name it Kimball State Forest? This column eagerly sponsors the suggestion which was made to us the other evening by a boy a lad in whom Jack Kimball had taken a kindly interest, and who had been encouraged by him into a wholesome interest in the woodlands. Will others join with us in urging this proposal upon the state forest , authorities? a Pedestrians Gat Theirs A PPARENTLY, we didn't go far enough m A ' yesterday's discussion of pedestrian traffic .hazards. Emmett GiUings, who sets this stuff up on the linotype, came right in to tell us so, and the-good wife added her bit on the way home. Laying it into the drivers was all right, both averred, but what about the pedestrians themselves? A lot of them invite danger by crossing streets against lights, by jaywalking, ' and by mooning along without an apparent thought for their own danger or the incon venience they may be causing others. Our sympathies are with, the pedestrians, but maybe we waste them on the folks who insist on bucking the "wait" signals. Sometimes we doubt the need of those signals, but so long as they are there, it's good sense to obey them. Those who . don't -like them can go to a city council meeting arid urge they be discontinued. That's safer than getting into traffic lanes that are supposed to be clear.. Klamath Falls is now a pretty busy town. Wednesday night's foot and auto traffic was like pre-war Saturday nights. We do need traf fic control, and we are fortunate that the sys tem got under the wire at the beginning of the ' war just ahead of the priority business. It would be worse than we realize without pro per controls, and the thing to do, unquestion ably, is to submit to them so long as they are there. . " We say that bravely, knowing full well some reader of this column will be waiting on the opposite curb to tell , us about it next time, we buck a wait signal. lit' Br PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, June 1 State Secretary Hull's announcement that he was ready to proceed on post-war negotiations with the other United Nations "alter frank and fruitful discussions" with senators, was very care fully worded. He said he was proceeding with the approval of Presi dent Roosevelt, but did not mention any approval from the senators. Frankly as a matter of fruit ful fact also, (though unan nounced) he attempted to get the senators to slin a letter to him expressing such ap- MALLOK proval, but found them unwilling, parlia mentary language, they are reserving the right to object. The announcement, however, conformed to the time-table of peace negotiations set forth in this column published last Friday, namely that the president considered the military situa tion would be far enough advanced by July to proceed with political settlements. As to the remainder of the time-table fore cast, (that Mr. Roosevelt would call and join a meeting of the United Nations abroad a few months thereafter and thus avoid direct cam. paigning), Mr. Hull indicated only that he would consult the nations individually at this time, first Britain, Russia and China, then the other United Nations. Such would be the ordinary advance pro cedure for the calling of a general United Nations conference a few months hence. a a Angry Solons SENATORS interested in the international post-war air settlement (McCarran of Ne vada, and Clark of Missouri to mention two) are fumingly angry. While they have said nothing officially and are keeping their sus picions to themselves temporarily, at least, they believe State Assistant Secretary Berle (reached far more of an air understanding with' Lord Beaverbrook ' in London recently, than either has chosen to disclose. - They think a basis for agreement has been reached and fear they will be confronted event ually with a fait accompli, a complete conclus ion, which will leave them and their ' views out, as far as any practical objecting may go. This is why McCarran, without explanation, split his post-war air bill into two parts the other day. Apparently he intends to save the domestic part of it, even if the international part is lost. It might also partly explain his unusual sev erity of language in criticizing the presidents' lack of power in the Montgomery Ward seizure. Bricker and Dewey rtE reports about Governor Bricker breaking with Governor Dewey at every opportunity during the Harrisburg governors' conference were not as surprising as they might seem. The Bricker people privately claim to have more than 200 delegates which would be rough ly less than one fourth of the nominating con vention strength. They came in here and set up campaign headquarters under the manage ment of the well known Ohio newspaper pub lisher Roy D. Moore, after Dewey had received his unexpected success in the Wisconsin primary and had caused the withdrawal of Willkle. . The. way they figure, the large number of uninstructed delegates being counted for Dewey and the relatively small number pledged for him, makes this even yet an open campaign for the nomination. . Of course no one actually knows who an un instructed delegate will vote for, until the roll is called, and few conventions have been held in which opposing factions did not count the same delegates and their own right up to the minute of the roll call. Some are no doubt being counted two ways in this instance. But in this case, none -of the national leaders in the republican party has come out against Dewey, and no anti-Dewey organization efforts within the party have appeared. Opposition is simply not apparent. Thus, while the bulk of delegates is un pledged, few authorities consider the race as open as the Bricker people do. ..

Seeing that all con tributions are warmly welcomed, I wish that you would' please puDiisn my version. Having been in the army for 15 months, maybe I am not an authority on the subject of graft in the army. I have been in some four different camps dur ing my present army career and I have not once seen any evi dence of graft by any individual or organization. I certainly be lieve that the remarks made by this person is pure fantasy. There are certain army regula tions stating that any person con victed of such things as graft will MC UllUCl BCVCIC JJUUlAJlIIienb DV the war department. Yes, we feel that the home folks are with all the boys in uniform, and that they are doing a good job on the home front. We think of the persons who are working night and day at the war plants and we again think of the men losing their lives on the battlefields. Now, I ask, who is making the greater sacri fice? We feel the separation from our loved ones just as much as those at home feel the need for us, there we are equal. The soldier is putting In many more hours and is receiving much less pay for it.' Ours is another cause and that is VICTORY AND PEACE ONCE MORE! We do not want to live in a world where there are discords like this. " We are all fighting for mat aay wnen we can again come home and live like we' ought to live. Honest people appreciating, and I mean really appreciating the FOUR FREE DOMS. I have also had a thought in poetry: When the battle is won and over, And the boys come rumbling home, Friends, wives, and mothers With their hearts a beat in tone, Should see a gap in the march ing lines, Nobody for them there,' Should think of things once harshly said, . And say a silent prayer. Sincerely, ROBERT A. HOLMES, support is greatly appreciated. MAE K. SHORT. KLAMATH FALLS. Ore.
