size, and the prospects grow
brighter for a whale of a crop
that will dwarf potato sta
tistics of past years
If frosts hold off until well
Into September, Charley Hen
derson's estimated 12,500 car
loads from the basin may be
realized. That meant, of
course, an enormous harvest
labor problem.
But it is not an insurmount
able problem. It has been an-
EPLEY ticipated, and a lot ot advance
5 ', work has been done on it. The experience of
1 the recent years of regular labor shortage will
2 ! be helpful. If the entire basin community,
S i town and country alike, is gripped with de-
termination to get in the crop, it will be
; j harvested. , , , .
-g J Fuming at Espee
IN the neighboring town of Medford, there
Bel is still angry fuming at the Southern Pacific
5 - railroad because it doesn't run passenger serv
5 I ice from there to Dunsmuir. This has been
2 ! going on for years, the most interesting recent
g development being a government suit to force
' the Espee to give through service on the grounds
5 ' that it got heavy land grants, in the last cen-'
f tury, with the understanding it would provide
m i such service on the line.
;g Credit for that legal development must go to
5 ' Congressman Harris Ellsworth of the fourth
district, who happened onto the land grant
S provision in a big book one day in Washington
m ? and called it to the attention of government
'J lawyers. The suit has been filed, but has not
.at f been tried.
5 1 In normal times, it is presumed that any
S i profit-seeking railroad will run trains where
'5 I the business Justifies it. It is a little difficult
5 i to imagine the necessity of forcing a railroad
t to take business which awaits it. But that, of
S I course, 'is not specifically the technical issue
J i here, and maybe the courts will hold that
5 I trains must be run, regardless of the business
. I justification.
at The attitude of Klamath Falls toward the
t Medford problem, as indicated in a chamber
5 i of commerce resolution, is that we are sympa
8 I thetic so long as Medford service doesn't
5 j mean taking trains away from the straighter,'
a f faster, better Klamath line.
a I Engle and Mayo
5 -ml IN another neighboring area the nearby dis
f S ' I tricts of northern California an interesting
? "2 1 political situation has developed in the con
gressional race between Congressman Clair
Engle, democrat, and James Mayo, republican.
Engle is a personable guy who has had a
& I raopii s 1001 in nis pocKei since ne entered
1 the congressional picture a couple of years ago
i after the death of Renubliean Congressman
Englebright He won then because too many
republicans came out" for the job and split
the republican vote, which was heavier than
the democratic. Then the Jap camp affair
gave him a swell publicity break, and he has
been going right along, building political fences.
He has managed to present himself as a demo
crat who isn't necessarily a New Dealer. Thus
:he can -appeal-to rabid democrats, who haven't .
- anybody else to vote for, and to republicans
who do not love the New Deal.
I Mayo also ran for the Englebright vacancy
and might have won if Mrs. Englebright had
! not been in the contest and split the vote. His' .
best chance now lies in the fact that the dis- .
trict is normally republican in congressional
vote, as is proved by Republican Englebright's
return to term after, term. His main problem
is to offset the clever political maneuvering of
: Engle, who is a nice guy and a smooth worker.
ill he could make the republicans get into line
land quit playing with a democrat, he might
! get in. .
war production board from
business, but that it the least
of the story.
True enough, the secondary
business leadership remaining
down inside WPB is .not the
dynamic type. New, thirty.
six year old top man Krug
has not had a career wmcn
would develop business coiv
tacts, except adversely (he
was an engineer in the TVA
and WPB).
Coming up in his outfit are
MALLON men like Maury Maverick,
New Deal politician and head of the smaller
war plants division, who has been conducting a
novel business-endearing campaign for months,
taking every business complaint from every con
gressman as a major issue, writing nice letters
to the business involved, to the congressmen
and anyone who might be pleased thereby.
Behind Krug will be the similar New Deal
men who try to persuade FDR into left-handed
trails at every fork of the road. -
But this aftermath of the fatal Nelson-Wilson
feud is only a side phase of the greater evidence
that the whole business reconversion program
has become involved in tanglefoot up to its
knees the same glue which mlrcd WPB.
Great sectors of the home front, upon which
the immediate economic future of the country
depends, have become leaderless or confused
by conflicting leadership, which is worse. Harsh
and over-strained as these words may sound,
they spring from a mere scanning of surface
events, and are beyond concealment.
Mr. Roosevelt appreciated reconversion as a
dominating phase of the peace prospects and
last winter designated his wise man, Bernard
Baruch, to work out a policy,
.
Baruch Follows Orders
BARUCH did, and his man, James F. Byrnes,
was appointed, to' carry it forward, but
Baruch has been, in either silent rage or despair
(both seem justifiable by the disregard of his
leadership) and has said not a word lately,
while Byrnes has told congress he was quitting
the demobilization directorship, and his friends
fear he also will quit the government January 1.
On the disposition of surplus property. Will
Clayton, the official administrator, advocated
one course before congress only to find himself
blocked (not by republicans) but New Dealers
who protested his plan to turn land over to
the RFC (Jones) instead of the department of
agriculture (Wickard) or interior (Ickes). There
, is, therefore, no official policy on surplus prop
erty, and no leadership.
The CIO-New Deal element promoted the
Murray-Kilgore bill on industrial unemploy
ment, but their-efforts to get the president out
in front for them, had failed up to the moment
this column went to press, and congress is
passing a' modified George bill, sponsored by
the more conservative administration elements.
There is no White House policy and conflicting
leadership in this matter.
Contract termination legislation has been
passed, but is involved in administration con
flicts, and from the diverse ways of the demo
cratic leaders in congress, shows the adminis
tration attitude has not been defined in any
reconversion conflict (see also Wilson's resigning
statement).
GOP Watches, Waits
REPUBLICANS are sitting back, waiting for
the right time to say this all proves what
Governor Dewey contended, that the elderly
men here have demonstrated their ineptitude;
that the Roosevelt machine is going to pieces.
They can make much of Mr. Roosevelt's con
fusing statements on the Nelson-Wilson matter.
Friday, August 18, the president denounced
questions about Nelson being exiled to China
as "wrong and unjust," and a "disservice to
the country," whereas the following Friday, he
welcomed and encouraged the same speculative
inquiry by saying it. was "an iffey question"
(meaning it might or might not happen). -
The difficulty is so- glaring, I look for Mr.
Roosevelt to move first. Always in the past, he
has covered similar administrative failures by
creating a grand, and glorious new organization
on top of the failing bureaus.
I look for a message to congress or a public
statement -of some kind, shaking up the man
power commission and : perhaps some other
bureaus, establishing some new official leader
ship on the issues, with perhaps a' new super
duper outfit with a catchy alphabetical name
to conceal this post-war XYZ, denoting both
an unknown quantity and complete mystery.

The best time to check-mate

Try thinking or this man

in this way: -not that you are

just as good as YOU are. It is
amazing what a difference
there is between those two
