He has managed, as others failed to do, to get the Roosevelt forces on the defense, and by the time they have contrived an answer, he is tossing another hot one at them. Regardless of the outcome, Dewey is giving the country a campaign to remember. Those who have seen an able, accressive district attorney in action will recognize the same tics in the Dewey drive. His direct argument to the jury of the American people is good, and his rebuttal is sharply pointed at the major claims of the opposition. Landon was sound and folksy, but he lacked punch and color. Willkie was big, bluff, sincere and bungling. The suave, confident Roosevelt took them both for a ride. This time, he announced his intention of re maining aloof from the campaign in its "ordi nary political" features; bad he persisted in i doing that, Dewey, who needs an active oppo- nent for his type of campaigning, might have ! had trouble in getting going. But Dewey got i the old master down from his high horse, where ! he is fighting an entirely different brand of op i position, . and where the paternalistic ("now j children, just vote for me and everything will , be all right") appeal doesn't sound so good. 1 So, it has turned into an interesting and j challenging campaign. And it is evidently going i to get out the votes, after all. j Let's All Vote! INCIDENTALLY, there has been a lot of bunkum spread about this matter of getting out .the -votes. Fourth term advocates have al i leged that the republicans were hoping for a small civilian vote and would benefit thereby, j and also that the republicans were hoping for i a small soldier vote and would also benefit from ! that. ' There has been no evidence to support such i assertions. lit this country, democrat, republican ' and non-partisan agencies have urged voter reg ! istration and are now urging people to vote. ' That seems to be what is going on everywhere. This column, which can hardly be regarded as a Roosevelt supporter, has always urged voter j registration and a full vote in Klamath county, i and is doing it again this year, j Regardless of how Klamath county goes in i this election, we sincerely hope that its volume ; vote will set all-time records. It -has been in the democratic primaries of recent years that the most miserable showing of volume voting has been made. Republicans haven't had much j to brag about, but the democratic record has i been startlingly bad. J .- Making no bones about our convictions, let i us say. today that we hope the democrats will j turn out en masse and vote for Dewey and i the end of a prolonged one-man regime; whether j that happens, we hope they turn out en masse, i any way. The same goes for republicans. j Wine Bill ON YOUR ballot at the election will be found a measure that is generally called the i "fortified wine bill." This bill was passed by the j last legislature, and it provides that fortified t wines can be sold only in state liquor stores and agencies. The wine interests put through a I referendum, forcing a vote of the people on this bill, and are now waging a hard campaign j to defeat the measure. Fortified wines were originally sold in state J stores' and agencies, only, under the Knox act. e In 1935, the wine interests succeeded in getting J the legislature to amend the act to permit sale I of fortified wines outside the state stores, and J they are now sold in grocery stores, restaurants, , road houses, and elsewhere, without liquor per- J mits being required. The measure to be on the r November ballot will put these wines back in J the liquor stores, where, we think, they belong. . Law enforcement officials with whom we J have talked about this are strongly opposed to , the general package store sale of fortified wines, which they regard as habit-forming and mainly J responsible for the unfortunate alcoholics com- monly known as "winoes." J The opposition to this measure, springing have pointed to the word "give" in the wording of the bill, claiming that means one will not be able to serve guests or friends. Courts have held .that this interpretation is erroneous. We vote 312 X YES. News Behind the News By PAUL MALLON TOWN. Oct. 24. This is town, SIDE GLANCES Octek... n ininni r.Ai.. -i ILfSlll 1 11 -sUR TOWN. Oct. 24. This is our J V. S. A., just like many another I suspect, and a rather astonishing place right now for everyone in it. I should not say "astonishing" because no one is astonished at anything these days. Its peculiar condition is a chief subject of con versational concern among its residents, al though not yet recognized in public statements. It just seems to bo growing into something no one understands. There is our plumber, for instance, as good a plumber as there ever will be. His integrity shows in his work. When he fixes a pipe, you know it is fixed, which is perhaps an unusual thing in itself these days. In the past year, there were only three days out of the customary 365 in which his entire force of help appeared for work. They are making such high rates of pay that they can live comfortably (to the fullest of the liquor ration also) by working only half the time, and nothing can get them to work the other half. He keeps 12 men on the pay roll in order to get the six necessary for his business. ' Bricklayer Quits I CALLED the best bricklayer in our town to do a little job. He said he had gone out of business. His health could not stand the strain of trying to keep his troup of bricklayers together, as none wished to work regularly. It was not worth the trouble to try to handle them because you could never get a job done. He opened, instead, an old blacksmith shop which had been closed for 30 years. Yes. sir, our leading bricklayer has become a black smith, a symbol of our progress. The hotel manager in our town is a superior fellow, has had top experience in New York City, a progressive kind of manager who .wants to make his food better, his place efficient and superior. He broke down trying to do it, and after a few weeks in the hospital is now taking a month's rest. His waiters made enough money to allow them to retire each pay day and return, either rested or bleary-eyed the following Tuesday or Wednesday. His maids went off to the local war factory where they could make $30 a week and more standing around doing practi cally noirung. oome aays oniy one employe showed up. What has happened to our town? No one wants to work. No one who can live otherwise wants the responsibilities of an employer. It is not a manpower question (the men are here) or an economic question involved in all those sta tistics the government bureaucrats wrangle about. It is a state of mind, a condition for which there seems no remedy. Double Gl Pay THE elderly couple down the street finally got a man to wash their windows this fall, but he wanted $8 a day for that simple task and they could not afford it. The kitchen maids ask $30 a week more than twice as much as a soldier fighting at the front and sometimes get it. . But like others they do not want to work, as a group, and they increase their salaries while cutting their hours of labor and' their ' days off, laying off when they accumulate enough money to rest up for a few weeks. They seem to be working toward a three-day week also. ' Is this a war situation or a local phenomena? I think not. It is not a war question because it started long before the war. Indeed, it is the same condition to which most authorities ascribe the fall of France and it ruined communism in Russia. When conditions encourage people not to work, they naturally will not work, and when a nation docs not work it deteriorates and gives its eminence to nations which are producers. A nation has no wealth except the product of its labors and when the production falls off, tor any reason, it declines. Future Worries Loom BUT what bothers me is the future. The gov. ernment is pledged to an inflationary post war policy of high wages and high prices, thus continuing the conditions which arc causing the unofficial institution of the three-day week, of work avoidance and employer retirement. How then will this country maintain pro. duction? When the pressure of war is off, will it not be worse? I know labor leaders who doubt that the union people in our war factories can be kept at their jobs after peace in Europe. I hear authentic predictions of a. breakdown in Amerl can production before Japan can be conquered This is our town already. Will it soon be our country? vi JSPsssgo!e i sift Cge. ,tU'Y Ml gttVKt.

PINKHAH'S Bi What Is Wrong When Prayer fails? Thirty years ago, In Forbid den Tibet, behind the highest mountains In the world, a young Englishman named Edwin J. Dingle found the answer to this question. A great mystic opened his eyes. A great change crime over him. Ho realized the strange Power that Knowledge gives. That Power, ho says, can transform the life of anyone. Questions, whatever they arc, can be answered. The problems of health, death, poverty and wrong can be solved, In his own case, he was brought bnek to splendid health. He acquired wealth, loo, as well as world-wide professional rec ognition. Thirty years ngo, he was sick as man could be and live. Once his coffin was bought. Years of almost con tinuous tropical fevers, broken bones, near blindness, privation and danger had made a human wreck of him, physically and mentally. He was about lo be sent back to England to die, when a strange message came "They are waiting for you In Tibet." He wants to tell the whole world what he learned there, under the guidance of the creat es! mystic he ever encountered during his twenty-one years In the Far East. Ho wants every one to experonen the greater heullh and the Power, which there came to him. ' Within ten years, he was able tu retire to tins country with a loriunc. lie had been honored by fellowships in the World's leading geographical societies, for his work as a geographer. And today, DO years later, he is still so athletic, capable of so much work, .10 young In appear ance, it is hard to believe he has lived so long.
