Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLHY
NOMINATION of Governor Dcwoy is assured,
rniri one can only conjecture as to what
affect the other things done by republicans at
' Chicago will have on the out-
com of the election in No- t
l v ember.
The vice-presidential nomln- '
1 atlon can make a difference,
to be sure, but it is definitely
a matter oi secondary uuiiuip
nce. Opinion may differ
" to the effect of party platforms
in presidential campaign,
but this writer believe that
, only a platform built around
tame central, spectacular idea
.-. will get much attention. Who EPLEY
. remembers much about the platforms of the two
major parties in the presidential elections in
which he has voted?
" Whatever the platform, it remains for the
head of the ticket to give it force and meaning.
,' As the campaign wears on, its success or failure
- centers more and more around the personality,
the utterances, the sincerity, the convictions and
the record of one man.
r. In the present case, of course, there is a vast
backlog of sentiment which is against the pres-
ent administration, and would no doubt go to
any candidate worthy of the nomination of the
"opposition party." But a campaign based on
that alone would probably fail; the nominee and
the party forces behind him must make an
aggressive, constructive and clear-cut campaign
that will win support in that vast field of
independent-thinking voters whose sentiment ia
not yet "frozen," but can be won by November.
A Light Vote
KLAMATH Union high school district has a
population of approximately 26,000 maybe
more. At yesterday's school election, 56 persons
voted. That was about one fifth of one per cent
of the population not a very impressive show
ing, to put it mildly.
In the city elementary voting a week ago, 211
persons voted, which was pretty low, but not so
bad as the high school vote. There was a
contest for a school board post in the elemen
tary election, and the "personal touch" always
attracts more interest.
Klamath county unit managed to get out 137
voters last week in an election which, like the
high school district, lacked a contest between
candidates.
, On a percentage basis, the high school vote
was the lowest of three dismally low ballotings.
a a a
Reminder
THIS scribe voted in the two elections in which
he was qualified to cast a ballot,' but I
take no personal credit for it. I almost forgot
both elections, and therefore am in no position
to boast.
After last week's elementary election, I talked
with Arnold Gralapp about a first-page item on
the then forthcoming high school election day
which would be a late reminder to voters.
Arnold reminded me about the first-page item
Monday morning, and I saw to it that it was
there on Page 1.
Last evening, I went home to dinner, and
casually pawed through the paper. The Page 1
election reminder came to my attention, I
jumped up and let dinner wait while I dashed
to the polling place. -
There were no other voters there, so appar
ently that front page item served merely as a
reminder from Epley to Epley.
Nothing like using the front page for your
personal notes.
Approval Apparent
ON the basis of this experience, however, it
appears to me that the financial issues
before the voters in these three school elections
are generally approved by the public, despite
the lack of ballot marking.
Had I felt any opposition to the measures, I
am sure I would have gone to the polls without
urgings or reminders. It is safe to assume that
the same would be true of others.
' A total of about $700,000 in levies was voted
in the three school elections, all for prefinanc
ing property development and improvement. .
The school districts now are assured of a
substantial reserve which, properly and care
fully spent, will prove highly beneficial both
in meeting future plant needs and providing
future employment.
Still, one can't escape the feeling that it is
too bad when a mere handful of voters author
izes taxes of such proportions upon all the
taxable property of the county.
Br PAUL MALLON
CHICAGO, June 27 Her is Governor
Dewey, a man who is not a candidate, who
has spent no money, made only three public
appearances outstaa nts stata
in the last two years, on the
eve of an overwhelming nom
ination against John W, Brick
er and other candidates in
cluding Willkla who did cam
paign, and one of whom
'(Willkle) spent money.
Never has there been a cam
paign like it in all American
history, and the inside story
of how they did it likewise is
unique.
MALLON Perhaps the similar cam
paign of Mr. Roosevelt is what set a ton
which made this one possible.
It is true also some money has been spent
by state organizations for Dewey, but without
any central guidance, and in the face of dis
avowals of support from on high. Typically,
the first expense account of Dewey's New
York state delegation headquarters here was for
a carton of cigarettes and a case of Coca-Cola.
Yet this unique campaign has brought most
of the Wlllkl crowd into or near the fold. His
Oregon national committeeman Ralph Cake,
Ken Bradley, Johnny Haynes and others are
here, apparently ready to go along with th
prospective nominee, as are the Cowles broth
ers, leading midwest publishers, although no
on her pretends to know what Wlllkie him
self will do.
a a a a
Acceptable Rumors
(QUMORS that he will become publisher of
the Chicago Daily News or a university
president and thus switch over to become an
unofficial adviser on politics from this activ
political leadership position arc generally ac
cepted as likely to work out.)
At any rate his following is tending toward
Dewey.
The crushing of Willkle may be attributed to
a pre-convention popular, spontaneous, almost
unled uprising, but the crushing of the Bricker
candidacy is directly traceable to the smart
head and footwork of the Dewey campaign
managers here. Nothing like them has ever
happened before either. There is not one
Dewey leader, but three. His triumvirate Of
managers are all equal in position:
Herbert Brownell Jr., legal counsel of the
republican state committee and personally clos
est to Dewey, J. Russel Sprague, New York
national committeeman and the Dewey spokes
man in press conferences, and Edwin F. Jaeckel,
state chairman. '
When a point is at issue, they go into a
huddle, and come out apparently always of on
mind. On Important matters they call th
governor long distance.
Their tactics are reminiscent of Jim Farley's
grass roots delegate hunting and smart publicity.
It takes enlightened shrewdness to cop a con
vention quietly for a non-candidate without get
ting scalded occasionally the demonstrated
popularity of Dewey in the primaries being off
set considerably by the bulk of uninstructed
delegations which came in here.
e a a a
Press Conference Called
FOR instance the way they took the heart
out of the Bricker movement without touch
ing him is an example of the way they work.
An hour after Bricker had held a press con
ference on the scene here in person, offering
his best publicity bid for the nomination, .criti
cizing in his plain, unbitter way, the absence,
silence and delegate-strength of Dewey, the
triumvirate called a press conference.
They said nothing about Bricker and in fact
nothing themselves about Dewey. Apparently
they just wanted to introduce the press to 24
national committeemen (who are actually politi
cal directors of their states or represent those
who are) and leaders of six other states.
All 30 got up and spoke a few words for
Dewey, but the most significant speaker was
Bill Reickel, California committeeman and Gov
ernor Warren's man. To all in the know, this
meant the end of Bricker. The other politicos
read the true meaning of the incident and there
after the bandwagon started loading fast.
Again, delegates were calling for a statement
from Dewey, something to present his voice to
the convention. How to do it, without injuring
his position as a non-candidate!
a a a a
Report on Government
THE triumvirate arranged to have the New
York member of the resolutions committee
present to it a 40-page report on government,
ripping apart the ideals of the New Deal, the
manuscript as was written by Dewey himself
in the capacity of chairman of the committee
on government at the Mackinac Island confer
ence. It sufficed.
These matters were made public, but the
triumvirate privately had also arranged (by
extra special concentration of work) to have
the first five states on the roll call go unani
mously for Dewey when the balloting begins.
The appearance of surpassing power was thus
contrived to discourage even nominal opposi
tion. On this they worked the grass roots.
When the triumvirate felt a little shy about
handling the press, I called for a deputy N. Y.
state commissioner, Press-Wise Harold Keller,
former New York city newsman, to come out
and handle that phase. There were no flowers.

tt,r Yes. Malln doea things In
a big way, They did raise 42..
BOO for building a park, and
want to raise six times as much
to make tho town of Matin beau
tiful. We must give Malln credit
for lota of things.
Just take a look at their ceme
tery, which is about two miles
north of town, on the south side
of a mountuin slope. Was a
pretty place for our loved ones
to rest until someone decided
that It la n a wonderful place
to raise potatoes. Whomever It
was planted potatoes on tho up
per halt of the cemetery.
How our loved ones must en
joy all the tractor noise. Or Is
the county really short of potato
land by now. 1 Just wonder
when our county agent, C. A.
Henderson. Included Into his es
timation of acreage, included
that patch also? 1 thought when
our loved ones passed away, they
should be placed Into a nice
quiet place lo rest until called
again, as we are told they shall
bo called. Not bo placed where
they have lo be listening to
tractor noise and dodging the
streams of water when whom
ever It was that planted those
spuds, Is Irrigating.
I remember, there la a Bo
hemian poem where tho writer
asks to bo burled out on a quiet
spot, plant a tree at the head of
his grave, put bench under the
tree, for loved ones to rest, not
be burled out In a cemetery
where the caretaker's cows will
graze on his grave. Yo. that
poem Is very sacred to all Bo
hemians that know It, or should
know It.
Yes, Malin doea tilings, or 1 It
only someone that has no respect
for tile dead.

WRESTLING BOUTS
MALIN, Ore. -(To the Editor)
Does tho wrestling bouts held
In Klamath Falls need house
clcanli.g; V. people who travel
40 miles to see a inntch expect
more than what occurred at the
Armory last frlduy night. We
paid to see tho main attraction
and what did wo sec nothing.
Tho bout started before the bell
rang and ended In a minute by
an attack by Bolcastro upon
Wag.icr which was not a le
gal bout in no way, shape or
form. We go to see wrestling and
not fighting In the first place,
that's what the billing say. We
go to see wrestling, not eye
gouging, punching, biting and ev
erything elso even pressure holds
on men's necks that paralyze
their nerves, also taking a man's
arm or leg and wrapping It In the
ropes. Such sportsmanship If not
American.
If one referee cunnot handle
the bouts such as we have scon
In past weeks, surely the crowd
pays enough money to warrant
two mon as roferecs. Tho past
three weeks' bouts are like see
ing a bull fight in Mexico and
as wrestling has risen fast In
Klamath so will It fall just as
fast if not faster.
In all due respect for Mack
Lillard, the promoter and Wally
Moss, the referee, we respectful
ly hopn that such nn affair will
never again blacken the blotter
of good bouts which have token
placn In Klamath Falls. Lets try
and have a few clean, skilled
