relax th restrictions. It has been done else-
where.
We don't like to mention it again, but it is
painfully clear that all of this housing the
stop-gap trailers and the row-housing yet to be
finished comes tardily into a situation that
has been short for many months. That would
justify an early relaxation of restrictions if
the housing does not fill up.
Relaxation would encourage the construction
of the privately-financed units, none of which
has been started as yet.

Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
WO one gasped with surprise when the census
v.,,i rilsrlosed that vacant family hous-
;- ing in Klamath. Falls is virtually nil, but the
iv survey mace ny ne ouiwm
at the request of the national
housing agency, serves good
purpose in establishing of fie
": ially the short housing situa
tion here.
Now,, the interesting thing
is the lack of immediate re
sponse to the opening of the
"stop -gap" trailer houses.
Fifty-five -. of these trailers
i were made available few
days ago to in-migrant essen
tial workers, but only two or EPLEY
three have been actually occupied. The row
housing being constructed by the government
agency to help relieve the situation here is not
yet ready ,for occupancy.
Qualified occupants generally may not have
realized that the trailers are available, and
additional . publicity may bring more renters
Warm weather may make the trailers seem un
desirable to potential renters, although that
wouldn't deter the family in desperate need
of housing.
.'
Restrictions
IT IS also possible that the number of qualified
families here is drastically reduced by the
restrictions set up for occupancy of- this war
housing. That there is a shortage of housing
is undoubted, as the survey shows a percentage
of vacancy which is regarded in government
, circles as critically low. But it is possible (we
can almost , say probable) that under the special
occupancy restrictions, the government housing
does not fit the need of the community. We
will know more about that after a few weeks
of trial.
This war housing is now available to in
migrant essential workers people who come
here to work for lumber companies, the rail
roads, as registered nurses, or as civilian
employes of the Marine Barracks or the air
station. Essential workers already occupying
. other housing here can move into- the war
housing only if they are evicted, or their rent
Is raised beyond their capacity to pay, or they
can show the place they occupy is sub-standard.
In-migrant construction workers cannot occupy
the war housing unless they can prove they
have come here as. permanent residents, or
unless a member of the family gets an "essen
tial" job.
i ; a a
Can't Move In.
IT WILL be seen from these restrictions that
there are many people here, seeking housing,
who can't take advantage of the war housing
being made available. '
For instance, we know a military man who
has. his wife and family here with him. They
are occupying two cabins in an auto court,
paying considerably over $100 a month. They
cannot find other housing here, and they cannot
.move into any of the war housing accommoda-
tions unle6S the wife should go to work for
the railroads, lumber companies, or the military
installations. . She can't do that because she
must take care of the children.
Military men with families here cannot
: occupy the housing unless some member of
: the family gets an essential job.
Relaxation Possible
THIS, as we have said, adds up to tha possi
bility that the housing construction with its
accompanying occupancy restrictions is not the
real solution to the problem here. As soon as
this becomes convincingly evident to the gov
eminent authorities, it is presumed they will

News Behind ihe News
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, July 35 It was an interest
ing crowd of democratic office holders
who trooped back from Chicago. The look on
their faces could raise a smile
from anyone. Not that any
seemed especially disgusted
or elated. They just persist
ently treated their handwork
as a matter of course (appar
ently also as did Mr. Roose
velt who went off to the Pa
cific coast.) The normally
crusty Interior Secretary
Ickes for instance hid his
chagrin over the defeat of Mr.
Wallace by saying: "We nom
inated the second best man." MALLON
I have never seen politicos less inspired or less
enthusiastic.
. What they did at Chicago in the last analysis
was to form a purely practical political working
arrangement for the campaign between the
city bosses on the one hand and the leftleaners,
even CIO on the other. Senator Truman will
bring into the campaign a background of sup
port from both of these elements including
the old Pendergrast machine in Missouri. Na
tional Chairman Hannegan has his own machine
in St. Louis. Chicago's Mayor Ed Kelley, who
was probably the convention's most important
. maninulator. now has the most complete ma
chine in the country. He directs everything
there now, although some insiders say the
' apparatus has really become too big and is
showing some signs of cracking.. These, to
gether with Ed Flynn and Hague from both
sides of the Hudson ran the convention.
Personally Unpopular?
NOW they did not kick Mr. Wallace out
because he is a radical. He had just
become personally unpopular and they wanted
to win. If the New Dealers had a more power
ful candidate than Wallace, I do not believe
Truman would have received the nomination.
The bosses simply got their political working
arrangement with labor with their own man
. instead of taking the CIO choice. Frankly then
they improved their chances of a November
victory. With similar machine practicalism
' they put down the embarrassing negro issue
and the Texas-South Carolina trouble with all
possible vagueness, crowding the matter into
the background.
a
Battle Yet to Be Won
A ILL this arrangement win the election?
W I do not believe the average democratic
, leader here is confident. The battle is yet to
be won. A city-CIO combination for instance is
actually a small minority of the country. It
. leaves the opportunity open for Dewey to
organize a middle ground majority around -the
farmers, right wing labor, middle class. If
Roosevelt is to win, it must be accomplished
by the force of war developments, peace nego
tiations or by his personality. So while I
would say the party helped its chances by
relinquishing Mr. Wallace, none of the power
exhibited . at Chicago was enough to win m
i itself.
This year with the war likely to break be
fore election, with the peace unsettled, it is
probable people may take the election more as
a matter of course. Extremely light votes
have appeared already in the primaries. In
Idaho, at the height of the European invasion,
candidates got no crowds and the voters could
not be induced to come from farms and war
factories and register. .In North Dakota, the
vote was light despite the warm senatorial
contest. In Maryland, democratic Senator Tyd
ings found unusually little applause given to a
Roosevelt speaker at a Roosevelt pep rally and
candidate Senator Pat McCarran reports people
are not interested in talking politics.
The country may be in the same peculiar
mood as the democratic politicians.
