Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
WE'VE been intending for several days to
tell something of our deer hunting ex
periences, in response to many inquiries which
n nntotinn on thn "'mswl
front page the other day that
Epley was out scaring deer.
Politics has delayed our re-,
port.
Well, we didn't scare any
deer seriously. One large buck
appeared suddenly on the sky
line in front of us, and we
were probably as badly scared
as he was. He had disappear
ed around the corner of a rim
rock before we remembered
we were surjDOsed to shoot at
antlered deer when we saw them.
The camping was great. So was the eating
and drinking and friendly little games in the
evening. But the hunting was terrible, it
was agreed by all hands, including veteran
nimrods who took this neophyte along to open
gates. Whether the lack of shooting opportunity
should be blamed on last year's doc season
or this year's weather was a question lengthily
discussed but never decided around the camp
fire. But there was nothing the matter with the
country. "This is great deer country. Keep
your eye peeled," was the inevitable expression
as we came in sight of rock flats, mahogany
thickets, or great areas of slick-leaf in a big
burn. It was great deer country, all right,
but very few deer came , within range of our
well-peeled eye.
Furthermore, it was just plain great country
the wide open spaces of Klamath, with pine
woods, and rimrocks, and aspen-filled canyons,
and lonely clearings, and long purple distances
worth the long hikes and the wet feet and
air that without the deer. But 'don't get us
wrong venison from the freezer would have
helped bring up pleasant memories.
Case of Mr." Bussman '

A. H. Bussman's right to hold his offir EVeniV Divided
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, Nov. 7 This it the day
when everyone starts laying down the
adjectives quietly and begins acting nice.
There is less cause for the quadrenniel meta
morphosis this time than usual. It has been an
unusually clean campaign.
Of course, the frenzied-few managed to call
each other liars, but not many proved It, and
after all anyone in politics is supposed to be a
liar these days, so the charge is hardly sensa
tional. As a matter of fact I achieve the distinction
of being called a liar by four or five of my
20.000,000 readers (circulation going up) for
having quoted Mr. R. as saying in his Boston
speech that he would never send our boys
abroad in foreign wars (the same aa now rag
ing). They thought he added the words "unless
attacked." He didn't. Not in the Boston speech,'
although he may have added it in some other
remarks. I just told those readers to apply to
a New York newspaper which offered some
thousands of dollars to anyone who could prove
the president contrived an out for himself care
fully and slyly in the Boston address, and as
far as I know no money has changed hands.
Over-Emphasis
THE newsmen here who follow such things
closely say the best campaign speech was
made by a movie actor, but newsmen are ac
customed to overemphasis. They make a living
at it.
I always had thought movie actors were like
Orson Welles, who conducts himself preposter
ously, as if he did not expect anyone to think
he was genuine, and behaves generally as a
latter day John Barrymore, in a more childlike
sort of way.
The mere sight of his cherubic countenance
enrages me more than anything except possibly
the enigmatic physiognomy of a person called
Sinatra who seems to have a hold on some
adolescents which I do not understand. It
certainly is not sex' appeal, a quality which I
generally recognize in an instant. It must be
psychic in some peculiar publicity aspect (I
suspect Steve Hannegan, who created the na
tional hallucination that the girls in "Miami are
bathing beauties, whereas they generally are
four to five feet wide, is behind him.)
At any rate, they say the best campaign
speech was made by Gary Cooper. He got up
before the microphone as a Montana boy instead
of an actor and said out there people were
generally known by the company they keep,
and he did not like Mr. Roosevelt' company.
'Just that. " . - . v .
What is more sensational he wrote it himself
and only three words were changed in the
script. That is probably why it sounded good.
A sincere or genuine thing offered in this fic
tion world we live in stands out like a moun. I
tain. i

was challenged by Mayor Houston, on the
sruunu inai mi. uussman has moved outside
the ward he represents.
We are not sure of the legal situation, and
will reserve discussion of that for a later time
But on the face of it, it is plain that Mr. Buss
man has not been treated fairly in this matter.
Mr. Bussman moved from his ward in June,
and so informed the council immediately. He
was asked by the council to remain as a mem
ber until the election and his successor can
qualify. i
. Five months later, after an incident in which.
Mr, Bussman disagreed with an administrative
department, the question of his right to hold
office is raised. If he cannot hold office legally
now, he could not hold it back in June when
all hands agreed that he should stay on the
council and there was no objection from the
city attorney.
Mr. Bussman's views on any particularvsub
ject certainly do not affect his legal status.
The tardy challenge is most unfortunate, and
certainly it should be made clear to the public
that Mr. Bussman did not attempt to hide his
change of residence from official view or to stay
, on the council if not legally qualified to do so.
Worth Considering
REGARDLESS of the outcome of today's majr
oralty election, and regardless of what kind
of administration the city gets in the ensuing
term, it occurs to us that it is time for Klamath
Falls to consider a change to the council-manager
form of government.
.Under that system, the council would be
elected as at present, and will do the legislating
and policy-making for the city. It would hire
a trained administrator, much as a school board
hires a superintendent, to administer the busi
ness of the municipality. The mayor would be
the chairman of the council, elected by it, with
the job probably passed around from year to
year.
A farsighted mayor should have no objection
to the people of the city considering such a plan,
even though he might be against its adoption.
We mention it at this point, prior to the count
ing of votes in the election, because we do mot
think the Idea should be advanced as opposition
to any one administration, but rather on the
basis of a long-term view of what would be the
best for business-like handling of the city's

. n evenly divided before, but then neither has
the country. I thought the actors always spoke
out according to-what their bosses wantad, but
they say this was not entirely true this time.
Some of the -actors insisted on speaking for
what they actually believed. , ' ;
Apparently the political charm which Mr. R.
has held over the country that anyone who did
not agree with him was a sort of -devil or
reactionary has been broken. This is the out
standing development of the campaign.
. For Mr. Roosevelt I would say his campaign
exhibited an amazing self .courage. He spoke
from a wheelchair at the teamster dinner and
had to sit down while speaking at the foreign
policy association.
Although these- facts were recounted in the
newsreels so any eye could see, the newspapers
never mentioned the facts to my knowledge,

. Clean Campaign
FOR Governor Dewey I would say ha con
ducted the cleanest campaign of my gen
eration. I think he got in a little too much
of the "me too," but so did Roosevelt.. (He
seized the Dewey platform free . enterprise,
incentive capitalism, etc.)
It seems that if either of them found good

iately. Dewey even got around to endorsing I
me iair employment practises committee which
has not practised what its name implies, but has
followed muscling-in methods on the political
line of the Marshall Field publications (I under
stand PM's true circulation is only 40,000 which
may indicate how unpopular that line really
is.)
But Dewey got all his facts straight and
showed himself to be the careful investigator
which he is. No one tossed him arpund (the
methods of the Ickes crowd of frenzied few
being obviously less popular this time.) In gen
eral, Dewey narrowed the campaign down with
his "me-toos" to the point where he presented
the case that everything else being about
equal, he proposed an honest government with
out revolutionary changes. If you vote for that
today, I think you will get It.
