Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
T is certain there are many men from our
area of Southern Oregon and Northern Cali
fornia among the ranks of the Allied invaders
of Hitler s Europe, but so far as we have heard
.:. no definite word of individual g---srf5
participation has been received 8 S V
here as yet.
Klamath had many men in
England prior to invasion, and
-a it is presumed that these men
are either in the invasion itself
. " or close to the English end of
this gigantic operation. It is
' certain that our men over
there, whatever their assign-
mcnU, are discharging them
with the ability and bravery
that have marked the partlci- . EPLEY
pation of Klamath men in every major action in
the global war.
It is with a feeling of humility that we at
home think of these men of ours in the thick
of the struggle. Any contribution that we can
, make shrivels in comparison with theirs.
But let's not get the idea it shrivels to noth
t ing. Everything counts, and there is something
J to be done here in addition to hoping and pray
. ing for our fighting men and the cause they
j represent. Those who help produce war mater
' ials, those who contribute to sound home front
economy by doing their Job well, those who do
. Red Cross and other civilian war work, those
i who lend a hand to a service man all of these
are helping.
Every bond buyer is likewise making a con
i tribution, and that can and should be unanimous
J among all earning people of our community.
, If it is, Klamath will go far over its quota in
' the Fifth War Loan, and the men who are
. carrying the brunt of the struggle for us will
know that we are not forgetting. It is a tangible
way ox oacKing uiem up.

No Doa Season
THE strong opposition among local sportsmen
and conservationists to a season on female
deer in the Klamath-Lake area bore fruit in a
decision of the game commission last weekend
in line with the general sentiment here.
- This decision, while tentative, is expected to
get a final stamp of approval at an adjourned
commission meeting June 23.
Game commissioners gave the most sym-
pathetic and careful consideration to the Klam
ath arguments, and their decision was in line
with a policy of caution in dealing with the
intricate problem of managing the size of the
Klamath-Lake deer herd., It gives time for a
thorough study of the results of the doe kill
;, last year. We believe that a long-time program
. which may be formulated on the basis of thor
ough and careful investigation wUl receive the
support of the local sportsmen.
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, June 11 A latent but tre
mendous popular Interest out in the
country over the confused status of the At
lantic charter as it faces leftist ideologies in
war-torn Europe nas been
freshly detected by the senate.
An astonishing number of
requests have come in for
copies of a speech by New
Hampshire's Republican Sena
tor Bridges, made in the sen
ate May 23. Recently, the
number was above 80,000, and
it will run above 100,000.
About 40,000 of the first re
quests came from protestant
groups', 10,000 more from Cath
olics, the rest from other
sources.
The public may recall the address as a criti
cism of Mr. Roosevelt giving naval vessels to
Russia when Churchill would not let the Italian
navy go, and inasmuch as we still face a great
naval war in the Pacific in which Russia is not
involved.
This was only the introduction of the Bridges'
speech which reached the headlines. The bulk
of it was a less sensational inquiry into the
status of the Atlantic charter and four freedoms
directed to Mr. Roosevelt and asking him:
"Have you lost the initiative in Europe?"
Italian News Confuses
THE news from Italy lately has only added to
the popular confusion. The withdrawal of
the king in favor of Crown Prince Umbcrto as
"Lieutenant General of the Realm" has received
varied interpretations. An Italian-American
labor leader in Boston asserted the king was
under communistic influence, but Umbcrto's
position is being described as fascist by the
liberal press.
The pronouncements of the Vatican immedi
ately after the freeing of Rome revealed no
inkling of its political knowledge or intentions.
The Communist Leader Browder has broad
cast on our radio domestically an implication
that some Catholic churchmen have accepted
the validity of Russian indications of espousal
of religion as against the atheism and agnostic
ideologies formerly promoted and imposed on
the Russians by the state. Incidentally but not
necessarily significantly, Mr. Browder closed his
address with an appeal to God in some connec
tion or other.
The only thing clear, therefore, is that there
is confusion therefore no agreement. Valid and
authentic interpretations beyond this may be a
long time coming.
It was supposed to be a laboratory for work
ing out the conflicts, but the political re-organization
there so far has been too difficult for
words, at least any official words from Messrs.
Roosevelt, Churchill, or Stalin.'
The communists are in control of almost all
the European underground movements, and are,
therefore, the most active political Influence we
are freeing not only in Italy, France, and Po
land, but throughout Europe.

Fishing for Service Men
SINCE appearance of a note in this column the
other day about? fishing equipment for serv-
ice men stationed in this area, along with ' a
suggestion that local fishermen take guests
along with them on their trips, this desk has
; received several calls indicating that such a
program is well under way.
W. J. Kessler, head of the Klamath Sports
men s association, said the plan had been taken
up in his organization, and that his personal
office can be used as a clearing house in this
connection. Mrs. Mary Case at the selective
; service office has started a movement to collect
fishing equipment for service men. George Mc
Intyre at the First National bank saw to it that
' a group of men used his cabin and equipment
at Diamond lake over the weekend.
Those are Just reports we have heard. There
is apparently a considerable amount of effort
being given individually in this community
along this line, and it is all fine and commend-
, able.

Briefs from the Pocket File
DR. LOWELL T. COGGESHALL, chief medi
,o1?i officer at the Marine Barracks, flew
; 120,000 miles in licking the malaria problem for
; Pan-American Airways in Africa . . . Lt. Com
. mander Benny Turner, executive officer at the
Klamath naval air station, used to be publicity
man for Aviatrix Amelia Earhart . . . He now
rents a house owned by Dr. and Mrs. Samuel
Earhart of Klamath Falls, kin of the missing
flier . , . Without announcement, the investigat
ing committee has sent to higher authorities
its report on the shooting of a Japanese evacuee
at Tulelake by a military sentry . . . Frank
Ramsey, big KUHS football coach who left Fri
' ' day for the marines, expects to get a perfect
fit in a marine uniform . . . Reason: he's so big,
they probably will have to make a special one
for him, right to measurement.
The Meaning of Freedom
ALWAYS in the past, they have used the
words "freedom" and "democracy" in a far
different sense than we do, so documentary
evidence thus far has done little to change the
confusion. Most communists still look upon free
dom as meaning just one thing freedom from
fascism if not capitalism, or, in fact, freedom
from democracy as we understand it.
Also, Russia in the past has changed its ideo
logical course temporarily with its fingers
crossed behind its back, solely to get Its way,
and when this purpose was accomplished, it
would revert to its original purpose. This is the
precise official explanation of Stalin's friend
ship neutrality treaty with Hitler when Poland
was invaded and Britain was drawn into the
war.
Suspicions, therefore, are natural and will
not easily be dispelled. If the transferring of an
unexplained title of "lieutenant general" from
the king to Umberto (later to be passed, some
say, to Umberto's son) becomes a cover for an
Italian communist radical grasp for power, it
is one thing. If it becomes only a cover for the
confusion (as it most likely is) then the fruits
of war are being ripened only on the outside
peeling, and worms at the core will continue to
work.
One Christian Force
YET in Italy, there Is one force which is cer
tainly Christian in its ideals the ideals
which Mr. Roosevelt rightly described May 27,
1941 (quoted in the Bridges speech) as being
the dignity of the human being, of the majesty
of the human soul, in a world where moral
standards are measured by treachery and bri
bery and fifth columnists." (The president was
then speaking of a communist dictatorship.) It
was this point of Christian ideology which
brought so many inquiries for the Bridges
speech.
The Vatican is not only "the best informed
institution on earth," but well might be a great
influence In Italy, Poland, France, etc., where
there seem to be few Roosevelt democrats, and
as far as I can see it, the main power present
to be used for maintenance of the Christian
ideology along with the Church of England and
various protestant denominations on the conti
nent. This being (he second most important sub
ject in the world, second onlv
for our success in France and due to the fact
that I raised it at the outset when it was un
popular, and have pursued it without neglect
in the face of criticism I will have more on it
tomorrow.

sal to serve in the armed force.
The court split 3-4 on Hiirtzcl.
Justice Murphy, who wrote the
majority opinion, said that while
Ideas expressed by ItarUel were
"odious," therti was not sufficient
evidence to show that ho intend
ed by the pamphlets to hrlnn
about Insubordination or other
disturbances In the military serv
ices. "No direct or atfirmutive m.
peals are made to that effect and
no mention Is mode of military
personnel or of ncrsnnx n-ulstr-r.

"They (the pamphlets) contained
instead, vicious and unreasoning
attacks on one of our military
allies, flMtirnnt appeals to false
and sinister racial theories and
gross libels of the president."
Justice Heed, with Justice
Frankfurter, DuiikUm and Jack
