Worse, republican, contesting candidates for United states senator. These chaps are un usually Interesting as candi dates because Mr. Smith, a fubstantial business man, may nave appeal for some repub licans, whereas Dean Morse, an educator of liberal views, has an appeal for some demo crats. This column, in the primary, made Its choice of Wayne Morse for the long-term sena torial position open this year, and nothing has happened to change this con viction. As time has gone on, we have become more deeply impressed with Dean Morse's in tellectual versatility, his judicial fair-mindedness, his grasp of problems great and smalL and bis willingness to face each issue as it comes along, no matter how politically touchy. The particular thing about Wayne Morse which has appealed to us is pretty well summed up in these sentences from one of his speeches: "I believe that the future of all Americans EPLEY Telling The Editor Latter prtM tan ant not be mart trap SM mum at laftflls. aatatt bt ami tea KxuHt an ONE SIDE ol tht papar MOaariaf than ratal, an ajaraati THOSE DEAD BUILDERS KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. (To the Editor) The hand that writes these lines, moves at the impulse of a heart that for several years (and still does) ache with an intense yearning to awaken the people of this community to a long neglected duty which they owe to the ftioneers of the yesterdays of ife, who so enthusiastically drove the first nails in laying the foundation of the village of Linkville. Klamath Falls was built upon that same solid foundation and without that foundation this in teresting city might never have existed. The promoters of today never seem to look back to the actual builders of that foundation, but keep looking ahead to progress and still more progress which 1 is, of course praise worthy, but the indisputable fact remains, that some honor Is due to the pioneers who made possible the boasted pro gress of today. It was this writer that point ed out the location starting at the bridge as the only place left of old Llnkville that is suitable for a pioneer park to commemorate the pioneers who blazed the trail to this ideal spot that nestles between two beautiful lakes, at the mouth of the shortest river in the world. I wrote to several well-known pioneers of today, and also to the News and Herald, (as ye scribe will no doubt remem ber) and though I received warmly cordial answers, no ac tion was taken to build the park, but many of the News and Herald readers were en thusiastic at the idea and people, known and unknown and also pedestrians, stopped me on the street to offer their help and others drove to the bridge to look over the loca tion and then hunted me up and called at my studio and told me that if there was any thing they could possibly do, to let them know, for they would consider it an honor to help the good work along, so that af terwards they could rest in that dear spot and know that their own hands had helped to beau tify it by doing their bit. Their spirit of cooperation touched a minor key on the aeolian harp of my soul and I wanted (and still do) to see them have their hearts desire fulfilled that of doing something really worth while, so that ever after, they could look back to it with pride. The thought that they could lend a helping hand in paying a loving tribute to the old pioneers spurred them on to offer their help in any pos sible way. But now, by the Irony of fate, the city fathers, being swayed by emotional pride for our boys in the service, who are so lovingly known as "the flower of American youth" have chosen the same spot for a Vet erans Memorial park. Of course I, too, am proud of the loyalty of those boys, but it happens that this is the only place left of old Linkville than can be used for that purpose, for the first pioneers waiKed on it in Linkville days and that sort of hallows the spot. If this place is given any other name than Pioneer park, there will never be a pioneer park, for there is no other suitable place where their feet have trod. This writer is sentimental enough to' want this place for a tnoute, because those pioneers actually walked on it and they found it. A veterans memorial park can be located any place with high honors, but this one spot would be a loving tribute to pioneers of all time, for it is a part of old Linkville. My plap was to pay for the land with contributions, such as are now solicited by the Salva tion Army, the Red Cross, the Community Chest, etc, and most of the work could be done by volunteer workers in groups like old time bee s," when busi nessmen, lodges and "who-so-ever-will" would band together like picnics and get a big kick out of the work. That way, the park would cost the city very little, while a veterans memorial park, as planned, would cost the city a tidy bit. This fast growing city needs several parks and build ing a pioneer park as soon as possible, would insure the re turning soldiers a lovely place for relaxation, where they can pick up the broken threads of their life and weave them into a plan of their own, for the future. I only had in mind, a small park, reaching from the bridge to Center street, but if his honor, the mayor, would want it to extend to second street, to in clude the place where the Houston opera house stood, that would be an added honor for the name of Houston on the brass name plate. When the first settlers reached this locality, perhaps they knelt on the bank of the lake or river and gave thanks to God for reaching their jour ney's end in safety, as did Christopher Columbus and his little band of pilgrims when they discovered this continent, and because I like to picture those old home-seekers on their knees and think of their foot prints on the moist soil, I feel that it would be a sort of sac rilege, or like robbing the dead, to use this last available spot for any other purpose than to honor the pioneers who found it, and how dearly they loved it, only God knows. The thought of the prints of their feet, the work of their hands, inspired me to make this nnh. lie appeal for the city officials ' to be kind and reconsider their ! decision and name the proposed park at the bridge the Pioneer : park, for it would not only ; be a lasting tribute to pioneers : of all times, but a real bencdic- i tion to all those who helped to j beautify it. If every one who feels that; the old pioneers should be honored, will either by the i written or spoken word or by telephone, tell the mayor that they want a pioneer park, per-.' SPOKANE.

Superior Judge Donald A. McDonald informed attorneys yesterday, that the Pic magarine article upon which the action is based was libel ous per s.

Wayne Morse sees this great danger, and speaks out boldly against the thing that brings it on. The Harvest Problem AN acute crisis is rapidly developing In Klamath's harvest labor situation, as we all anticipated. Now is the time when every extra bit of help counts. In the past few years, when this need de veloped, many people of the city and suburbs went out into the fields. Their assistance is surely needed again this season. It is needed right now, if it is to do the most good. Giving a helping hand in this crisis will be a contribution to general community welfare that is personally significant to each of us. a a a Those Pine Boxes THE 20.000th Christmas box for service men was handed out today in Klamath Falls by courtesy of the Pelican Bay Lumber company, whose president, H. D. Mortenson, invented and executed this swell idea. We sometimes wonder, as we see people call ing for these free pine boxes, whether they realize how it comes about that they can get them in this way. Mr. Mortenson and Pelican Bay did it, and they deserve the warm appreciation of all of us. haps he will grant our plea and build the veteran's memor ial park some other place. LaCELE WYNNE. THE SILVER STAR The Silver Star gleamed in the window bright. Proudly for all to see. Symbol of the boy whose proud young might. Fought that we might stay free. Now the song is hushed on Mother's lips And Dad looks grey and old. For the joy went out of their lives the night. The Silver Star turned to Gold. Killed in action the message said, A story too often told. It meant the end of their hopes and dreams. And the Silver Star turned to Gold. Perhaps some time in a day of peace. When the mysteries of God un fold. We may understand why it had to be. That the Silver Star turned to Gold. WEATHER E'igene - Klamath ralla . North Bend Portland Reno . Francisco . Seattle .
