Dewey the republican presidential candidate, when he makes an "unscheduled stop" here by train on September 20 at 7:30 o'clock. Major parly presidential can didates are a major attraction to both republicans and demo crats. The last one to visit Klamath Falls, Wendell Will kie, drew a huge, bi-partisan crowd, four years ago. His stop was also the occasion for a mass display of deer car casses that illustrated. Klam ath's magnificent wildlife re sources and made national pic ture magazines. An "unscheduled stop," we are told, means an informal stop.1.' On such visits, no formal speeches are made.- The candidate shows him self, and chats informally, while his train is in the station. Quite frequently on such occasions, however, he says things that make news for the national wires. i ' .; Commandos Disband 'THE decision of the Klamath Commandos .to ' I disband brings to an end two years of out- standing public service that will long be re membered in this community and undoubtedly is a lasting highlight in the lives of the girls who participated in this effort. Several' factors contributed to this decision, the major one being that the girls feel the service center program is now well set up here and they can close their chapter in the com munity history "while riding "tops." There have ' been some disappointments for the Commandos, especially in the matter of quarters, but. at the time of their decision to -disband their financial support was in excellent . shape, and a determined effort was being made, to get more-adequate . space for the. service -center program: This, of course, will proceed and the service center program will, be carried forward on an expanded basis to meet the local needs. ; -- V-j ,' (The Commando, -who have carriedVon their ' . work without a taint of scandal at any time, have recently been', disturbed by reports, that some outsiders, of questionable reputationwere posing as Commandos. This was one recent development that led to the disbanding decision. .; Some of the girls, for personal reasons'j (such as marriage) will find it impossible to continue tSe heavy schedule of work the Commandos require of their members. Oddly enough, some other girls feel, ' however, : that under the ex panding program the tasks which "have been assigned to Commandos will be taken up by others, and for this; reason favored disbandment. ;The Commando experience is invaluable in ' the service center program,, and the girls have commendaoly-' agreed1 to help out individually in every -way .possible. The community, and service men who have been stationed or visited . here, owe -.much: to the Commandos, and with ' their individual -help the work will be carried forward in the fine tradition the Commandos have established. Question of USO NOW the Klamath military , service committee has before it the question of whether to invite the USO to come into Klamath Falls with a service center program. - The -USO has stated it is ready to do that very thing, but so long as. the Commandos were operating the center, the USO was not asked for assistance..- The USO benefits from the Klamath commun-. ity fund campaign to the extent of about $15, 000. Inasmuch as Klamath men throughout the world are enjoying USO shows and visiting USO centers, this local contribution is not too much, regardless: of whether USO operates a center , here. However, if the military service commit- " tee should decide on USO, it is probable it would lose no time in extending its operations to this community where there are three mili tary installations. Meanwhile, a federal works agency appropria tion for service men's recreational facilities has been granted- to the committee here, and will be helpful in carrying on the service center pro gram. Tho community's interest and help in every way .possible is in 'order for this project. IplpSi Igilii From The Klamath News . Sept. 13, 1934 J. E.

" ' WASHINGTON, Sept. 13 The Germans have no more than 23 depleted division) (probably around 300,000 men) bitterly trying ML MALLON Their retreat from France was rather clever ly conceived, or at least displayed the usual nazl thoroughness in stubborn, conniving resist ance to. the inevitable. .To date they have maintained an escape corridor to Germany through the Belfort gap. Then also we had only one usable channel port, Cherbourg, the one wo took first, which was thoroughly demolished (it is now handling about twice its rather small peacetime traffic burden.) But Cherbourg fell so far behind our fast-advance force, that most of our- sup plies had to come in over the beaches. (A liftlo came in by air;) , . . g Nazi ' suicide squads left behind in i Brest and Havre, the two largo ports ;We wanted most, did their work well, riot only In resisting us but by demolishing port facilities to make them unusable to us for days after capture. a a a German-Held THE others, Dieppe, St. Nazaire, Lorlent, Ostend, Dunkirk, Calais, Caen, do not amount to much toward supplying our large armies. But the' Germans held most of them throughout our journey through France and the Lowlands. Our seizure of Antwerp practically undam aged was offset because the nazis for a time still held the islands controlling approaches to the port. . For their western Europe defense in the be ginning they had around 1,230,000 men when we landed in Normandy. Since then they have lost around 450.000 killed and captured (the official figure was 325,000 captured up to a week ago on both the northern and southern French fronts) and the number of their wound ed, including those who escaped to Germany can be safely placed at 250,000 to 300,000. Thus they lost more than half their army In France, probably- far more than half their com bat troops, as 400,000 of their original 1,250,000 were administrative or non-combats. The only divisions which came out whole and prepared .-to fight were those few in Belgium and Holland, awaiting our threatened flanking invasion there. They hftve been trying ,to get troops from Finland and Norway, .but these are too far away. While they have obtained some 'from Denmark, few could come from the Aegean (These were mostly cut off) and. none from Hungary, where the Russians are now threaten ing. ' - v .- -. ' " i " - .' ' . -, . ., , Decisive Defeat ' u. THEIR defeat in the two battles, in Normandy was so decisive they saw immediately .they, could not defend the Somme-Aisne line-or-even the Belgian forts;; so they ran for the shorter lined German border, with less than half their, army, to-plan a line on the Albert canal, Ardennes forest. Moselle river. - They had time for real preparations only on the Moselle, where they mined extensively and used one old fort and some-few new concrete" pillboxes. v - On the southern front the nazis fought hard at Lyon and Besancon, delaying General Patch. Furthermore when you read of us occupying a town, it generally only means our advance force has gone in' and that force is not prepared to fight against any sizeable resistance and must await the arrival of the, main body, if it meets strength. . Consequently confusing dispatches have come but indicating we had captured some of these towns four, .or five days after entering them. " . ;: ' In the face of resistance Patchy was just not able to get up to General Fatton's flank around Metz and Nancy soon enough to close the escape corridor promptly. (Although he 'had one good port, Marseilles, behind him Toulon having been ruined.) It may not have mattered much as most of the Germans from southwest France had passed that route Germany-bound , many days before. -- '. . ' '' Also : our northern armies had to sit around for a week arid wait until supplies came in through the slow process of beaching. Daily after that we began accumulating strength, not only in materiel but in men, sufficient to wield safe attacking power, which we are now doing. These lines, , like the Siegfried, are not the military obstacles today they once were. The British, for instance, passed the Albert canal against resistance, without use. of paratroopers or any special devices, although this is supposed to be an important military obstacle. Coming westward, the Germans similarly had forced it with rubber bbatsi VERBOTEN .
