Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
A SHORT, speedy campaign for the Klamath
community fund has been decided upon,
and is strictly in order.
The purpose of the united
drive is to get through the
public money raising efforts
here as rapidly as possible,
with a minimum of inconven
ience for drive workers and
the public. A draggcd-out
campaign of this nature often
ends in failure, and leaves a
bad after-taste.
September 11 is the date set
for the drive, which will raise
some $65,000 for troop enter
tainment. Boy Scouts, Girl
Scouts, Camp Fire Girls, Salvation Army, and
the state war chest.
If all Klamath county people will keep in
mind that all of these agencies are to benefit,
and they will not be asked again to give to
any of them, the $65,000 community fund
can be easily subscribed in the 10 -day period
allotted for the campaign.
If, on the other hand, people determine the
amount they will give on the basis of a prev
ious donation to just one or two of these
beneficiaries, the drive will fail and hereafter
people can be expected to be "hit" again and
' again for separate donations.
The united fund idea in Klamath county is
at stake in this drive.
e
Progress
SOME slight progress has been made in the
effort to obtain temporary housing for de
pendents of marines stationed here. Letters
written locally on the subject have been re
ceived in Washington, and "referred" to cer
tain departmental offices, and a navy lieutenant
is said to have made a quick visit here last
weekend in connection with the matter.
It is to be hoped that whatever is to be done
will be done soon. Local experience with at
tempts to get federal action on housing in the
war period has not been very pleasant, from
that standpoint. It has been approximately one
year since the navy knew it was going into a
construction program at Klamath Falls, but the
first federally-authorized house is not yet ready
for occupancy. If the marines and their de
pendents are to be helped, action-ought to
onmo fnctnp titan 4Viat
The need for this temporary housing became
apparent after the arrival of., a considerable
number of marines at the Marine Barracks. This
was accompanied by an influx of wives and
children of these men, who wanted to be with
them after their return from the South Pacific.
while the war department has not follower!
V.tt policy of encouraging dependents to follow
service men around from camp to camp, it was
felt that the situation in respect to the returned
marines located here is different, and that some
provision ought to be made. The chamber of
commerce, which is working on the matter,
hag received excellent cooperation from the ad
ministration at the Marine Barracks.
People on the local end of an effort of this
kind get a terrible feeling of futility as they
deal back and forth with one government
agency after another while precious time slips
away. It is to be hoped the local experience
with the marine dependent housing matter is
different.

Hollyhock Time
rIS is hollyhock time in Kiamatn county,
and the tall, colorful flowers adorn many a
vacant lot and back fence line as well as the
more carefully folded gardens. We like holly
hocks, and one reason is that their sturdiness
takes them into places that are otherwise ugly
and productive only of weeds.
There are certain places along our roadsides
where hollyhocks would do much for appear
ances with a minimum of care, or no care at .
all, if once started. We would like to see them
planted, for instance, along the highway be
tween here and Midland. , There is enough
sub-irrigation there to make them high and
handsome, and at this period of the year they
. would bring great joy to the traveler.

MALLON
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, Aug. 21 Traveling Mr.
Roosevelt and his war publicist, Elmer
Davis, came back from the Pacific front with
nromislntf but indefinite and
almost warning reports about
the time necessary to crush
Japan.
Tho common notion that "it
will only take a few months"
after Germany Is being cor
respondingly altered here at
least by official authorities.
The new notion is that an
other newly mounted cam
paign next spring will be re
quired and the end may not
come until a year from now.
So they say now.
This deepening attitude is due to a new
conception of tho military situation.
Next logical steps for us in the Pacific are
the Philippines, Formosa and the southern
string of islands off the Jap mainland (Ryukyu
islands, and even Kyushu, southernmost large
Jap Island contiguous to the homeland group.)
FDR Confirmation
NO secret can be made of General Mac
Arthur's intention to move promptly upon
the Philippines. He promised it. The presi
dent, after calling him to Honolulu, confirmed
the promise.
We cannot go anywhere in the Pacific with
out air coverage. Dangers of landing and sus
taining troops subject to Jap air attack are too
great to be considered. .
From this basic consideration has grown the
strategy of pushing our land bases for air
power steadily forward. This progress has
reached the Guam-Saipan frontier, which Mr.
Davis promises will lead now to the next steps
("not long" were his words, but every good
democratic politico here hopes MacArthur will
be back In the Philippines before election day).
The bulk of the Jap armies are strewn ever
the thousands of miles of Asia from Manchu
kuo to Burma (no longer India, from which
they now have been chased).
Conceivably, we could establish beachheads
on the South China coast and open a sea route
to Chungking. Our people may be reluctant
to do this without air bases on Formosa and
in the Philippines to cover that operation.
e
Weapons, Food Needed
BUT what is needed to annihilate Jap fight
ing power in China, is not necessarily our
armies, but weapons and food for the limitless
number of Chinese who want to do the job.
The source of Jap military power, however,
is not in their far-flung armies but in the
group of large islands known as the Jap main
land. If Japan proper could be conquered,
the armies in China and elsewhere must fall
for lack of supplies, weapons, even food, as
the whole Jap distribution system would be
destroyed.
As we have 100 aircraft carriers plus the
overwhelming Pacific seapower we know we
control, plus whatever will be released from
Europe as Germany falls, why not create an
armada sufficiently powerful to blast straight
into Tokyo, carrying our air coverage with us?
It would save a lot. of chasing around and
heavy fighting for preliminary positions.
Jap airpower is still a little better than the
German, but not much. They have production
while nazi factories practically have been ex
tinguished by our air bombardment. Also, a
considerable army remains on home Jap sou.
see
Task Not Beyond Plan
THE air force would have to be met and
I defeated first, then the land force, but the
task is not beyond assured, daring planning.
Incidentally, we have an admiral in charge
o f acme operations, the only front at which
the navy controls.
If we could do it at Saipan, we can do it in
the Jap center at home or on a China beach
head. In case we head straight in; the war
should not require another year.
As for the land fighting in China and
Burma, we are only marking time, as far as
grand strategy goes. Nothing pleasant can be
reported about the Jap successes on the Yel
low river (Hengyang). Talk survives that they
may try to organize a winter campaign west
ward to go into Chungking by the back door,
but this seems an undertaking beyond their
ability.
The monsoon has been on in Burma since
mid-May. They said we could never fight
during the rains. But General Stilwell first
showed them how and Mountbatten planned
similarly, so we have accomplished limited,
yet unbelievable successes.
The rains will be over In . three or four
weeks. Then there will be more action.

grain futures to rally today.
Rye at one time was as much as 1H

15,000 MILE CAMPAIGN TRIPT
(Thu Dulles Chronic e)
President Roosevelt Is buck
In the White House after a 15,000
mlla trip tint took htm through
21 states: to Hawaii and finally
to the Aleutian Islands. During
this trio ho "Inspected" many
war plants, and conforred with'
ucnoriii iviiicArimir anct Admiral
Nlmltz In Hawaii.
At a press conference yestfr
dny tho president studiously
avoided uny reference to repub
lican charges that hit trip had
political Implications. Instead
no discoursed at length on broad
policies of post-war strategy and
our victory alma.
In view of tho 1040 precedent,
however, wo fall to see how the
administration can pretend that
politics was not involved in the
president's trip. After all there
was no occasion for Roosevelt to
"Inspect" clthor war nlanta or
military and naval installations.
Our wur industries have been
doing very well, and we huvo
.military and naval leaders far
mora competent than the presi
dent for Inspection of our fight
ing forces.
Republicans for some time
have been predicting that Roose
velt will sidestep domestic Is
sues, and make the 1044 cam
paign as "commnndor-ln-chlef."
By appearing before large
groups of war workers he will
seek to cap !ti re tholr votes, as
ho did in 11)40. As for tile rest
of the nation, he will seek to cre
ate tho impression that, as commander-in-chief
of our armed
forces, he is the "Indispensable
man." By turning the spotlight
on tho Pacific, now that It ap
pears as though Germany might
be defeated before tho Novem
ber election, the president inters
that he personally Is responsible
in a lurgo measure for our suc
cesses on this front, and should
be retained in office until this
phaso of tho war also ends.
Conveniently Ignored Is the
fuct that MacArthur and Nlmltt
were getting along splendidly on
their respective fronts, without
any advlro from tho White
House. Give thorn the men and
materiel that they need and they
will win the war ngalnst Japan,
regardless of whether Rooevelt
or Dewoy Is our next president.
