All of the city candidates will run as independents, and independent candidates should complete uiun- mmea u. t-.j September in order to get on P me sl-ivjv-c ins, mmi.ww. If there are any independent candidacies this year for coun ty or district office, they, too, should be filed by mid-September. . The county clerk must have the ballots ready for mailing to service men by September 22, or 45 days before the November election. She should have at least five days before that to get the ballots printed with all candidacies listed. No candidate will want to be in the position of having failed to cooperate in this effort to provide ballots for service men. and therefore early filings of all candidacies may be expected. Two New Faces Sure FIRST real development in the municipal political situation was the announcement by Treasurer Ruth Bathiany that she will not be a candidate for re-election. Mrs. Bathiany has held the office for 14 years, and has run at times without opposition. Her retirement from the field necessitates at least one new candidacy for this office. It appears also that Mayor Houston will not seek re-election. Suggestions from many citi zens that he run again have evidently proved of no avail and the mayor, for personal reasons, may announce within a few days that he will retire definitely from city politics at the end of the present year. That will mean at least two .new" faces in the city official family at the beginning of 1945. a Hospitality Pays A SAMPLE of the favorable "community advertising" which Klamath can receive from its hospitality program for service men is found In the following excerpt from the mimeo graphed bulletin of the Irving Park Methodist Episcopal church of Chicago, dropped on this"' desk by Dr. George Wright: "Mike Rybarczyk thrilled his family by appearing back in the states. He was sent' to the new big marine base at Klamath Falls, Oregon, where his fiancee, lone Pepple of Elkhart, Ind., Joined him to be married on June 7th. When the senior hostess at the camp heard this news, she insisted, on their being married in her home, it being her birthday, and provided a nice wedding cake and all the wedding frills. She loaned them her car and gave them a wedding gift in addition. What kind of people 'there are In this world? Our heartiest congratulations and best wishes to these young people who are here on furlough." . . : That, we believe, is the real spirit of Klamath MALLON News Behind ihe News By PAXIL MALLON WASHINGTON, Aug. 9 The administration seems preparing, with resumption of the congressional session, to promote legislation for what could be another WPA. The CIO-Kilgore bill, back ed by left-wing new dealers, proposes unemployment com pensation for war workers up to $35 a week, in effect estab lishing this amount as a mini mum wage since no one would care to work for less. A hue and cry is being spread that there. may be 19, 000,000 unemployed, and un der the pressure of that fabu lous suDnosition. the move ment is being generated for the utmost funds, to be handled by the federal government in time for election usage, if the peace comes as soon as Mr. Churchill has predicted. Mr. Roosevelt's running mate, Senator Tru man, engineered the bill out of the military affairs committee, no doubt under order. This may be at least one fresh- factor behind Governor DeweyV recent concentration of at- tack upon the centralization of authority in the federal government. Certainly no amount of money could be raised to match the $30, 000,000,000 campaign influence of such an in dustrial unemployment compensation measure, plus the soldier benefits up to $25 already passed. New NRA Looms . ALSO, its provision opened legal possibilities for such things as a new NRA, ordering businesses to work, refusing to give materials to businesses which do -not cooperate,-etc.- The form "of the legislation is what -will count. If It is to be taken out of politics, congress will have to. adopt some modification of the federalized controls as well as modify the rates. " Democratic Senator George has a bill which would set up a state method of payment in accordance with the existing- social security scheme, now povering 30,000,000 people. The federal government would guarantee . the solv ency of state funds although state directors contend they have a sufficient sum of four to five billions to meet the shock of post-war employment now credited to them. A third course has been offered by Economic Stabilizer James F. Byrnes, -somewhat like the Kilgore bill, unifying standards under, federal management and reimbursing the states. While this was presumed to be the official adminis tration idea, it appears now that Truman, not Byrnes, is acting, for the White House even though the bill violates several recommenda tions of the president's special advisor on this subject, Mr. Baruch. Will Probably Lose THE reason the CIO course will probably lose in the end is that alU states, -.'democratic and republican, are resentful" of -.the inroads that have been made on, their sovereignty and fear ful of what this wolild do to business. v. , Most republicans probably will join in behind the George measure along with- the southern " states-rights democrats. ; -. ...:'' As republican Senator Varidenberg has said, the Kilgore rates' would 'riot only; give the in dustrial workers, who have-been making highest war salaries, a greater benefit than the soldier, but would be more than; a normal wage for many ordinary non-war workers. In. the south, he thinks, no.one. would work jor a time. As fax as northern industrial states are con cerned, some how 'pay over-$20 a week in benefits, consequently, there will be a tendency to delay action on the measure in the belief that the states can care for the situation. Humane Society Motes Interesting Stories About Klamath Animals and Efforts in Their Behalf -By Jean Bingay Young- I am going to talk about "hot dogs" today, although I do not know just how well these hints will be received just now, with out automatic furnaces coming on in the middle of the night. But we will have some hot weather yet. However, I am go ing to give you a few suggestions' that may make your pets more comfortable when that time comes. No dog should ever be with out fresh cool water especially during hot weather. During ex tremely hot weather the amount of solid food should be decreased about 50 per cent and the amoumV of liquid food increased proportionately. Buttermilk is an excellent food for dogs during hot weather. Do not be afraid that he will starve. Most peo- pie iceu ineu- aogs too mucn and too often. , Exercise should be kept at a minimum and given' during the early morning or in the evening. Fits are often the result of exer cise immediately after meals. I am told that if your dog is fed on meat and vegetables and giv- en a little triple calcium phos phate (this can be obtained at any drug store) sprinkled from a salt shaker and mixed with the food, he. will not develop, the itching eczema that hot weather so often brings. I have not tried this personally. It should not need emphasis, but the thoughtless practice 'of shutting dogs (and children) in closed cars is the cause of much suffering. Dogs suffer from heat stroke just the same as humans, Better leave them at home. Cats: Adapt their habits to the weather far more completely than any other animal. They are practically never victims of hot weatner ailments due to the tem perature itself. Do not overfeed but give plenty of water. However, cat typhoid accom panies hot weather and the fly season. Very little is known in regard to prevention, but it seems reasonable to scald the dishes from which they are fed immediately before using them, so as to destroy any infection mat migni nave oeen lett tnere by flies. 'Flies ' should be kept- out oi tne .nome ana cats should not have the opportunity to catch them. Fleas have also been found to carry the virus .of cat typhoid and a can of flea powder is a very sensible investment at this time of year. At -the first sign or uiness involving any animal, of course the veterinary should oe consulted at once. A great many complaints are coming to us about dogs making nuisances of themselves by bark ing, howling, yelping and attack ing people passing by. The Hu mane society has no jurisdiction over this, but city officials have. There are ordinances whereby any person can make a com plaint. This sort of thing is frequent ly the cause of outbreaks of poisoning. Of course in the onin- ion of most people, there is something abnormal about the j A Gem of Thought From Idella's i There was a Keen Cutie named Zink Who desired a nice coat of Mink She had a figure devine And hor features were fine.

They have the remedy of correcting the situa tion legally and after all it is not the fault of the animal but that of the owner who is too lazy and selfish to train his dog. It is amazing the indifference of some people to the disturbance of a whole neighborhood and to the disturbance of the much needed rest of hardworking neighbors who need their rest. The Bible is no longer fashion able, but the Golden Rule "Do unto others as you would they should do unto you" is a pretty good- recipe- for peaceful living with your neighbors. Potatoes CHICAGO.'

' Adjustment in Foodstuff Supplies Needed in Lend Lease Program With Isies 324X ADJUSTMENT WASHINGTON, Aug. 9 (JP) The United States has furnished Britain with about $2,000,000, U00 worth of foodstuffs in tho three and a. quarter years that lend-lease has oeen in ODeration. This is Uie most important ele ment of civilian supply that will require adjustment when only uie war wun japan remains. A steady curtailment in lend. lease aid to the British Isles, paralleled by a return to normal commercial trade, is expected after Germany is defeated. However, so far as can be learned, no program to that end has been worked out and offi cials plan to make the curtail ment only when they have a real situation to work with. It is impossible at this time. one authority said, to estimate just what lend-lease help the British will need to concentrate tneir ellorts in the final cam paigns to crush Japan. Here, nuwevei, is ine oacKgrouna against which decisions must he made when the time .comes:. in tne lirst tnree years of lend-lease, March 1941 through March 1944, lend-lease ship, ments to all nations totaled S17, 195,0U0,000. Of thai amount $7,- 306,000,000 went to the United Kingdom. The United Klnsdom total consisted of $3,169,000,000 ot munitions such as guns and tanks, $1,853,000,000 of indus trial materials and products sucn as macninery and processed petroleum, and $2,284,000,000 ot agricultural supplies, includ ing both food and farm machln- "Foodstuffs alone totaled $1, 823,000,000 which means that food shipments to the British Isles have averaeed about S50.- 000,000 a month. The volume ot iooa tena-ieasea is described of flclally as representing about 10 per cent of Britain's total supply. Meanwhile reverse lend-lease, most of It Kiven in the British Isles, amounted to $1,526,170,- uuu up to last January, the lat est period for which figures are currently available. British reverse lend-lease has been chiefly in grounds, facili ties and services for air and mili tary bases. American supplies to Britain have run the list ot military supplies and those civil ian supplies principally food which were considered essential to the maintenance of Britain as a fighting nation.

(To tho Editor) If yon w 11 lwrmit space in your pnper I'd like to let you nnd the puhllc know how rljilit tho ciitpentors woro when they asked tor Unit addi tional 2V cents per hour on theie war projects. You will remember thero was quite a controversy lust Novem ber when tho who sculo lor carpenters was cut to $1.35 per hour on tho air base mid the local union protested be tiij forced to tnko this cut and filed a complaint with tho war labor board. However, on Juno 1!8, somo seven months litter, the wage adjustment board rend ered, a decision to the eftect that under Kcneral order No. 3 and tho waKo stabilization act, the proper wage of $1,374 was prevailing in this area and should be paid to the workers. This required the payment of back wages to tho carpenters by all tho contractors on federal works. The K. T. Henderson and Brennan and Cahoon com panies immediately agreed to make up tho buck payrolls and later tho Morrison-Knudsen Twaits company also agreed to pay this rctroactlvo pay and checks are now being issued to tho men who have this money coming. This local union would appre ciate it if you would make such announcements as are necessary to have those men who are 'io longer employed on the gov ernment projects write In for the back wages due them. They can either address the company for which they worked or the local union. We wish to call your attention to the fact that there was no actual time lost by the carpen ters AFL unions in getting this adjustment, even though wo had to wait somo seven or eight months for the wage adjust ment board to correct an error made by the department of la bor in predetermining the wage scales of the carpenters. I take pride in pointing out the fact that tho members have re mained at work In helping tho war effort and even though tho departments handling this affair took plenty of time to decide what we knew was correct, our members were very patient and did not cause any work stop page on either of the main proj ects In this area. Hoping you and the public will give us credit for being conservative and patriotic in our efforts to live up to tho no strike pledge of the AFL, cvon when we are right, I remain, C. D.

Attorney Charges Prezs With Inducing Cynicism MILWAUKEE. Aug. 9 (A") Morris L. Ernst, New York at torney, declared at the Ameri can Newspaper Guild convention today that newspaper practices "havo Induced a terrible cyni cism" among the reading public and that "30 men control the pipelines to the minds of the na tion." "Names are unimportant." F.rnst said In an address to tho dclogatos, "but remember that thero are five big movie compan ies, four radio networks, the Syndicate and Press association group and the fact that 300 out of 900 radio stations are owned by newspapers. "Newspapers now are prob ably as good as wo can get or deserve, but they havo lost the confidence of the public and the confidence of tholr own em ploycs." Ernst said thai thero were 1103 towns and cities in the United States which are serv iced by only one newspaper, and that such "press monopolies" have caused the public to lose confidence in what they read. "I see no hope for new leader ship from within the profes sion," ho said. "It can not be overempha sized that tho, amount of contro versial matorlal which Is being withheld by tho government through obscenity, criminal li bel, and sedition statutes Is neg ligent compared with t h e amount kept out as a result of cconomlo domination." Ernst declared that a strong argument could bo made for tho promise that Tho Associated Press has become "affected with tho public Interest, and it should therefore deal with all who como forward."
