Anedaled Preee Member Audit Bureau Circulation V 4 j r EPLEY Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY THIS week we have two developments that bring outside agencies here at last for wartime jobs which were at first attempted on a strictly local oasis. The OPA announces it will establish a rent control pro gram here to force back rents that have risen since October 1, 1943. The USO is unani mously invited, at a gathering of interested people, to estab lish its service men's center and recreation program in Klamath Falls. This column views these de velopments with some disap- of them were probably inevitable under the conditions that arose here following establish ment of two active military installations. We would have liked to see Klamath lick both jobs without help. Where these problems continue, however, over extended periods of time, it has been the experience of most com munities that they do not overcome them with out the help of the general agencies. That has been ours. e e e e Inevitable RENT control was undertaken here under a city ordinance and through efforts of the local - landlords association. To succeed on such a basis, it would have to have complete local cooperation. It failed to get this, and the local effort was abandoned. As time went on, it became inevitable that the OPA would harken to the complaints and undertake a rent control program here. Such a program is not a pleasant affair, and it will undoubtedly result in some individual inequities and unfairnesses, although in the end it will probably accomplish the greatest good for the greatest number. . - So far as we can determine, OPA comes reluctantly into this picture. It is -coming be cause local control did not succeed. The thing to do now is to establish general compliance, with the program and get through with it as painlessly as possible. a . Tht Greatest Service rE decision to ask USO to establish its program here was reached after long dis cussion at a number of meetings we happened to attend. It was based on a belief by those present that through this method the greatest ' service can be given to the army, navy and marine personnel stationed in this area. It should be kept before the people here that USO is not going to come in here and do the whole job of operating a service center. It still will take extensive community assist ance, and how good a job the Klamath USO does will be largely determined by Klamath people. - - Unlike the rent situation, local hospitality efforts aid not break down. We have carried on a successful hospitality program, and it if still operating. It was set up by tb,e energetic and inspired Klamath Commandos, and con ducted with widespread community support. , The Commandos, however, have disbanded, and . : an enlarged program is now needed. The USO, with community help and sup port, will conduct the enlarged formal project. It won't take service men long to find .out whether the Klamath USO is a real commun ity program. If they find it is, they wiU like it and w)H make use of it. Our job in that situation is obvious. Influential A FORMER Klamath woman vouches for this story about the powerful influence of a ticket clerk in a Los Angeles railroad office. When she was buying a ticket for a trip ' through Klamath Falls, she told him she would like to arrange to lay over here. "Don't do it," he said. "That town is jammed, and you can't, get a hotel room." ...... "But I won't need a hotel room," she' re plied. "I have friends there. "You'll go through in the middle of the night. You won't want to get your friends out of bed at that time," he argued. She booked her passage without the stop over and she's still not quite sure why she yielded to the interference of the persistent feljow. A ASHINGTON, Sept.. 19 In this spot yes- YY terday I began the presentation of facts to demonstrate that compulsory military train ing is undemocratic and the proposed legislation to take 17-year-old youths into the army for a year would not provide an efficient, sufficient army because most fighting lines today are highly skilled techniques which require con stant practise by more mature persons. This youth nucleus discharg ed at 18 could not keep up with the scientific develop. rnnnta o war. but must be- MALLON Mm another national iiuard. taking inade quate refresher courses by mail. The training therefore could be not much more than a phy sical culture year taken put of the life of every citizen. If physical culture and minor preparatory training is what the army wants, why does it not put the facilities for these into our existing educational structure? Why take a year out of a boy's life. Delaying his college, education or his start in work, delaying the contribution of everv one to the productivity of tne coun trv. when it will not give us what we must have a capable army? Why waste money training the unusablcs and unadaptable boys, as the army proposes under the pretense of thus maintaining ciemoc racy? Many boys have no talent or desire for plane piloting, gunnery, tank operation. And money spent training them for a year at 17 to be soldiers would be thrown away, e a e A Suggestion WOULD you not get a better army source pool by offering inducements of pay and free technical education to those who like mechanical arts and intend to go further with their technical training in college or business? Why not do this by multiplying the size of West Point and Annapolis and injecting the preparatory courses for these schools in our existing educational system? The democratic way is always the best, if only it is intelligently led. It Is founded on the theory that a willing worker is better than a forced worker. We should therefore try inducement before resorting to compulsion. Compulsory military training has never prov- ed a guarantee of security or even a prepara tion for a good army in Europe. A disarmed Germany, which was supposed to have no mili tary training, nearly overran the world, and did crush all the nations with their compulsory camps. These brought larger but not better armies (to wit France.) A lieutenant overseas has written me what seems to be the initial fault with our thinking on this subject. He says a sufficient army, or a large West Point and Annapolis, will create military cliques which will rule us into wars as in Germany and Japan. a e e Historical Error THIS is the historical error of our nation. I Never have we been prepared for a war, or adequately for our own defense, because of thM popular fear. This time we nearly sacn- ficed our nation to the fear. They nearly got us before we could get ready. In the swiftness of these new war methods and the possibilities for great devastation of civilian populations, it seems to me clear that if we are not ready next tune this nation will adjourn. The practical way to keep away from mili tary cliques is by practising democracy, not sacrificing your defense to . the fear of an avoidable possibility. Prevent the military minority from becoming ruling civil authorities as has been done with our admirals cliques. Avoid such totalitarian practises as this pro-posed-youth draft. Raise your army in a demo cratic way, keep it democratic, and away from political influence and control. e a a a Fundamental View A N Oakland, California editor sees more f clearly the fundamental truths of the situ ation- He says the country must faqe the necessity of maintaining a large enough stand ing army and paying for it. He guesses we will need 300,000 men, 10 times what we had before. Well, we have always handled the navy that way. Why not the army? Land fighting is as highly technical now as naval fighting. It requires constantly keeping ahead of an always improving game. If we are going to assume any obligations as the top power of the post-war world along with Russia, we will have to have it. The navy is no longer an assurance of security in an air world. I do not like the idea essentially. Sufficient armies require heavy public expense. But there is no certainty in security. We must do what is necessary. I believe the Oakland editor is right. The objective analysis in these two columns on the subject, herewith concluding, show we had better face the facts of world life and quit playing around with false notioris-such ss the currently popular one that a year in the army for 17 year olds will solve the defense prob lem or be any less expensive than intelligently, democratically producing the army we need.
