Asaociated t'rcM EPLEY Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY nN this day of the commissioning of the u-!,oii, trnil Marino Barracks, it is well for the people of the community to take stock of tncir pari in mc . Barracks program. One of Oio major reasons the installation was locat ed here was because Klamath Falls was regarded as a good liberty town. There may be difference of opinion as to what represents a good liberty town, but at any rate it is our job to make this as good a town for the marine veterans of. the Pacific as we can. Organized programs are not enough. There must be a great deal of per sonal interest on the part of the people of the community, and those who have undertaken this sort of thing have been well repaid in pleasant relationships with the marines. The Barracks administration has been most active and helpful in promoting the proper community relationship with the marine corps. Letters THIS newspaper has received a number o letters from marines at the Marine Bar racks complaining about various features of the Barracks program. These letters were unsign ed, arid evidently were written in collaboration. In composite, the complaints were against the "chow," taxi fares, hiking, military drills, the type of work required such as chopping wood, shoveling dirt, building bridle paths, and fire fighting. There were several expressions to the effect that the boys feel they are not being treated as convalescents. We understand from what has been stated publicly about the medical program at the Barracks that drill and moderate work are a part of that program, and are designed to maintain the best possible physical condition on the part of the men in order to help throw off the tropical maladies. It is possible an extension of vocational train ing for marines, along the lines, of the fine start made at the high school shops, would be valu able in giving, additional constructive work to the lads at the Barracks. ; At any rate, we would say to the boyr who wrote us that our personal impression, from an objective sideline vantage point,: has been that, the whole Barracks program represents a sin cere effort on the part of their government, their Marine Corps, and the post administration, to do the best thing possible for the men there. They have given tremendously, and they de serve tho best, Good Crock IN connection with the above-mentioned letters, we found among them one of the best wise cracks of the season. Noting that the marines did most of tho Job of fighting the big Hogback fire, and put in a lot of work on several other fires, the boys asked: "What we want to know Is, who kept Oregon green before the marine corps landed here?" The War Today By HOWARD W. BLAKESLEE (Substituting for DeWitt MacKenite) HITLER'S V-3, as described from France, is just another rocket, and the only now things about it are its huge size and its sub stitution of alcohol for gasoline fuel, and even the latter is not altogether new. Sixty feet long, five feet in diameter is the description. Divided by tlu-ee, it sounds like a meteorological rocket which Dr. Robert God dard was firing in New Mexico years before 1939. His was a long cylindrical tube, an air torpedo in looks. German rocket experimenters before tho war were using various fuels, including vpowdor, liquid oxygen and gasoline. ( The V-3 is said to use liquid air, which is probably not an important change, as the pur pose of either liquid sir or of liquid oxygen is to get enough oxygen to keep the explosive jet burning to drive the projectile. Short on Gas? SUBSTITUTION of alcohol for gasoline could be a confession of acute oil shortage. Alcohol certainly would make a fine rocket fuel, but gasoline contains more heat energy, volume for volume and weight for weight. The engine which drove the buzz-bombs to London evidently has been abandoned for the V-3. The buzz-bomb draws its oxygen from the air outside. That would not be possible for V-3 described. The buzz-bomb flics low. V-3 is said to start almost straight up, like a long range artillery shell. The expected altitude of a V-3 trajectory would carry it to a point where it could not efficiently suck oxygen from the air. Hence it seems to be designed as a true rocket, which carries its oxygen in its fuel. The French reports gave no idea of the amount of explosive in . V-3. Take-qff weight is 14 tons. Much of this may be fuel, but how much would depend on the range. Explosive Radius THE only information about the weapon's power is that it has "an explosive radius of three kilometers," or almost two miles. But the words explosive radius do not neces sarily mean very wide destructive power. The absorbing power "of air is tremendous. At a distance the air waves are able to do consider able damage to structures which happen to be situated just right, but the lethal power is long gone. If the V-3 is a short range weapon, 50 miles or less, the radio control is easy to understand. If it is long range, the efficiency of radio con trol is not so easy. A huge rocket of this type would travel much faster than any airplane, although maybe the unknown but highly touted speeds of German rocket planes might be a help in keeping track of one. ? Stabilization Essential To OP A Rental Controls (Editor's Note: This is the fourth m a series of articles in connection with the establish ment of OPA rent control here effective October 1.) By MILO RYAN - OPA Rent Information Specialist Stabilization is the essence of the office of price adrmmstra tion's rent control program: sta bilization of the price exacted by the landlord and paid by the tenant, and stabilization of hous ing itself in emergency war cen Hence the OPA's provisions regulating evictions. Evictions are governed by lo cal law, to bo sure, but the rent regulations modify local proced ure to protest the tenant from those evictions that are contrary to the purposes of rent control. So lone as the tenant contin ues to pay his rent, he cannot be put out of his home by evic tion or exclusion. That is the general principle. Exceptions Noted But there are exceptions. A landlord may serve notice to va cate if: 1. The tenant fails to pay his rem, 2. The tenant refuses to renew a lease. 3. The tenant refuses the land lord access to the premises for purposes of inspection or show ing the place to a prospective buyer or mortgagor or other in terested party. 4.. The tenant violates a sub stantial obligation of tenacy or commits a nuisance or uses the dwelling for immoral or illegal purposes. Demolition Factor 3. The landlord intends to de molish the dwelling or to make such alterations as cannot be made with any person or persons in occupancy. 6. The landlord wishes to oc cupy the dwelling- himself. In this latter case, a landlord evicting a tenant for his own occupancy cannot legally rent that dwelling again within six months. Furthermore, this regu lation applies to the owner's ac tual occupancy, not that of a married son or daughter or any other member of his family. Slate nnd local law in gen- ,,-ul -fTrnrnr. iUn lm n 1u,lt..4 must give his tenant to pack up and move, but in. such esses as! outlined above; the OPA asks a I minimum of three-days notice, ' ' Notice Needed Whom a dwelling is sold to a buyer who intends to live there himself, OPA says that notice of eviction must be filed with the rent office arid becomes effec tive three .months after f ilina. However, . this applies- only -in j itisu iue uuyut. iias uiuue a uuwr payment of at least 20 per cent of the purchase price, all or part of which down payment may have been borrowed on security other than the property in ques tion. The provisions of this regula tion restricting evictions do not apply to a subtenant; where the removal is sought by the. orig ins landlord. - . . Nor does the eviction regula tion apply in the "case of the landlord who rents rooms in his own private home to not more than two Individuals or one fam ily unit. - In such cases, a land lord may demand possession of nis rooms at any time. Permission must be given by the rent office to evict on any other grounds. In all cases, however, a care ful landlord, anxious to comply with rent control regulations, should consult with the rent of fice as to the eviction procedure required of him. And in all cases, a copy of me lanaiora s nonce lo nis ten ant must be fiJ'd with the OPA within 24 hours after it is given the tenant.

E DESTROYED BY F1BE POE VALLEY Fire caused by an overturned lamp, Wednes day night completely destroyed the home of Mr. and Mrs. War ren Moore of Poe Valley and started a brush fire which spread over a considerable area. The Moore home was burned to the ground and all their be longings were lost. A high wind spread 'flames rapidly, igniting the hillside near the house. 1 Rain which came later in the night prevented the fire's spread ing even more extensively. Agricultural Place At Peace Table Asked PORTLAND, Sept. 30 (IP) The Oregon State grange master urged today that agriculture In which he said 70 per cent of the world's populace is employ edbe given a seat at the peace table. Morton Tompkins told a busi nessmen's club here that farm ers face a greater problem after the war than any other group. He recommended coordinated ac tion by farmers! with emphasis on the small, rather than the cor porate, farm.

HUGH PRUETT Astronomer, Gonoral Extemion Division, Untr. of Oregon The changes in star positions and the early "dews nnd damps" of evening surely tell us that in the "ever rolling year" autumn is again with us. Yet in our October we find lingering in the west some of our summer constellations for a while still available for study. Do not fail to see the gor geous planet Venus in the twi light south of west. Tonight It outshines everything excepting the big round harvest moon in the east. For the remainder of our study lot us observe be tween 8 and 9 p. m. Somewhat north of due west and still well above the horizon wc find glittering orange A re turns, the brightest star of the "bear driver." At some distance above and slightly to the left of this splendid star, note the small halt circle of twinkling points outlining the northern crown. In very clear skies not too flooded with moonlight seven little stars are discernible In this charming figure. One, considerably outshining her sis ters, is known as the pearl of the crown. Mythical Origins According to one Greek myth this is the crown presented by Athenian Thcssius to Ariadne, daughter of the king of Crete, after her scheming had saved Thessius from the terrible mon ster in the labyrinthine cave to which her father attempted to sacrifice him. Another classical story names Bacchus as the donor of the crown after Thcs seus had deserted Ariadne. But surely a more pleasing legend is that of the American Shawnee Indians. To them the stars of this charming sky-group were the Celestial Sisters. One day White Hawk, a mighty hun ter, when in search of game suddenly emerged from the woods upon an extensive prairie. He was greatly amazed when he came upon a large circular path beaten in the grass but with no trail leading from the outside. As ho stood wondering at the unusual sight, suddenly there came slowly floating down from the blue heavens a silver basket carry ing several beautiful maidens. When tho basket came to a stop on the ground, tho maidens leaped lightly out and began dancing around the circujar beaten path, one keeping time on a ball of silver. Back to Sky White Hawk hurried toward them, but the Celestial Sisters for that is who they were ran swiftly to their basket and were soon on their way back to the azure skies where tonight they shine In the half circle of stars known to us as the north ern crown. Leaving this jeweled crown, wc point out the remaining bright stars of evening. Capella Is flashing colors low In the north-northeast. Very high in the south Altntr Is conspicuous ns the ccntrnl and brlgnest of a lino of three stars. Slightly west of overhend Vega shines In splendor; and very low In the southwest, Antnres burns red in farewell to summer. Etutmmn ; . ;i!:l,,!ili1i:;ii;:M!H!,Nl-!'HI:i!l!l!i;il!!!!

Sermon, former circus and vaudeville acrobat who dis appeared from a bloodstained room last Tuesday, was believed safe today.

The checks, drawn on his Port land account, were In his hand writing, bank officials said; and the description of the man who cashed them corresponded to Sermon's.
