Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
THE OREGON JOURNAL, bless its heart, is
for the fourth term. 1" Wednesday's edi
tion, it comments at some length to the effect
that Tom Dewey speecnes
have grown increasingly bold,
after a "thin" start. The same
is true for the Oregon Jour
nal's editorial support of Mr.
Koosevclt.
Like the New York Times,
which brought itself to the
fourth term fold with "deep
reluctance and strong misgiv
ings," the Journal's original
campaign declaration sounded
very much as if some editorial
fingers were crossed some
where in the inner recesses
building. Now the Journal is pounding the
drums with a little more vigor. We had assumed
that this was just the natural pattern of any
campaign writings and utterances as the climax
ncars, but inasmuch as the Journal, through
some nuirk of reasoning, is making a point of
it as an argument against Dewey, it seems fair
enough to note similar growing intensity in
the Journal's campaign efforts for the fourth
term.
Yeh, that's what we say: What of it? The
election is coming November 7, isn't it?

Bonk Measure
HERE goes with the , first discussion of
measures which Klamath's Oregon voters
will find on the ballot.
fine first measure is entitled, "Amendment
tol provide alternative means for securing bank
depositors." The article to be amended, if this
measure carries, makes the stockholders of
j banking businesses liable for the indebtedness
ofi the corporation or company to double the
arjjount of their stock at par value. This meas
ure continues such liability, but provides that in
lieu of this liability the company may provide
security for depositors through membership in
the Federal Deposit Insurance corporation or
other federal agency.
(When FDIC was established, congress re
rnpved double liability- on the stock in national
banks. Most states followed suit insofar as
stfcte banks, were concernedr but Oregon and
two others have failed to do so.
jThis places an unjust handicap on state banks
in Oregon,- whereas it is recognized that com--'
petjon between the state and national banking
systems is healthy for the state and its in
dustryj This handicap can - be--removed, by
passage of this measure, without in any way
affecting the 'protection of bank depositors. If
banks are insured, the protection will be pro
vided in that way; if they are not insured, the
measure provides that double liability will con
tinue. . . -t ;
In fairness to our state banks, and in helping
to, preserve the system of unit and independent
locally-owned banks, this measure should pass.
ItJ most certainly will if itis understood. We
vote 300 x YES.

T Offensive Braggarts
ykE have a letter from Betty Peery, KUHS
YY - sophomore, that brings up a crude quirk
irl human nature ,which, it seems to her and
tos us, has been especially in evidence recently.
i Betty says she was sitting in a restaurant near
tHe school, when a man, who said he was some
kind of a contractor, started bragging to her
aftout how much money he had. He got out his
bfllfold and displayed a generous roll of lettuce.
l"We may listen just to be polite, but to most
of us school kids it means nothing and we'd
rather he'd keep it to himself," said Betty.
That goes for us, too, kid. Our own eNper
ience with such braggarts has been most un
pleasant in cases where the offender has been
partaking of the cup that cheers. The loosened
tongue that chatters boastfully of personal fin
ances, earned in these lush times with little
effort and not too much ability, is the best
argument we know of against inflation.
. .
Single Standard
IN this connection, we are reminded of the
fellow who came into this newspaper office
a few months ago to howl about the high rents
charged by Klamath landlords.
We listened with much sympathy to his com
plaint, and got into conversation with him.
Finally, we asked him how he happened to
come here, and why stay in such a town..
His answer was that he wouldn't stay a
minute if it wasn't that he was making more
than $100 a week on a construction project. He
had something that was scarce labor and he
was getting all he could for it. He went out
unhappily when we remarked that the local
landlords also had something that was scarce,
and were asking scarcity prices for it.
.
They've Done a Job
THERE wasn't any fanfare the other day when
Klamath selective service boards passed
their fourth anniversary but the event should
not go without a word of appreciation to the
loyal, hardworking citizens who have given
service on -these boards.
This work has taken a tremendous amount
of personal time. It has been a difficult task,
and one that has not always been pleasant. But
the boards have worked efficiently at a job
that is a fundamental part of the war effort, and
they have earned the thanks of the community.
' The men who have done this job: C. O.
Drydcn, Alfred D. Collier, Godfrey Blohm, Fred
H. Heilbronner. Frank J. Schmitz, S. P. Dehling
er and H. N. Moe. The efficient board clerks are
Ted and Mary Case.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19 The surges we
made in Holland, at Aachen and at Mctz
were but limited attacKS. iney aia not ap
proach the scale of a.ssault ,pf which we are
capable in manpower and munitions available
to that front. A big fall push is, therefore, cer
tain to devefbp within the- next few days. It
will decide the duration of the war .In Europe.
What has prevented us from getting it started
sooner was the suicidal nazi retention of the
channel ports and the complete destruction they
wrought before surrendering. This effectively
tied up our troops by hindering reinforcements
and supplies.

Brest Wrecked
THE whoje city of Brest was wrecked. Le
Havre was damaged beyond early use. Even
at Bordeaux we have been able to use only the
neck of the peninsula. -The
major campaign is still, raging around
Antwerp, and while enthusiastic dispatches have
told frequently of late that we have cleared
the Schelde estuary approaching that port and
commanding : it, we have just made good pro
gress on the south side of the river and failed
to do much on the north side.
At Metz, 'Aachen and in Holland, the nazis
nave snown fairly good artillery, and some
tanks. They must have saved these from earlier
war years when their production was full.
Their new recruits fighting at these points
were not as bad as could have been expected.
The number of older men in evidence has been
offset by the fanaticism of the boys.
-.
Form Line
WITH this artillery, the tanks and the young
zealots, they have formed a cohesive line
from Switzerland to the Baltic, although the
final power of this line has not yet been tested
by full attack.
Their morale, however, is surprising, especial
ly in the face of two great defects. They are
pinched for oil and .they have a great air in.

Their game is to hold on through the winter
in hope of a miracle by spring. In Poland and
.Italy, it is the same story.
We pierced their vaunted Gothic line both in
the center and on the Adriatic. Now they hold

Colored Pictures
Shown to Society
Spectacular colored pictures
taken in the desert country of
south central Oregon and Nev
ada were shown to the Klamath
County Historical society last
night by Kenneth McLeod, in
connection with a talk on the
geological background of this
vast area.
McLeod also displayed dia
grams and maps to illustrate his
lecture, which went back into
the dim beginnings of the earth
and came down to the more re
cent processes that left the high
desert and lake country much as
it appears today.
The pictures were taken on
Hart mountain, the Black Rock
desert of Nevada, Virgin valley,
Glass mountain, the Warner
mountains, and elsewhere in the
desert country, ending with sev
eral striking views of Mt. Shasta
and a remarkable sunset shot.

has been a lull of weeks if not
months and this is the only
