With farm wages hero as high as any place in the country, and comparing s favorably with the wages paid .5 for work in other lines, there 1 . is a feeling here among other classes of workers and their employers that the present law, which exempts agricul tural workers from withhold ing taxes, is unfair discrimin ation. There is also i strong sus picion in this area that many transient agricultural laborers somehow escape their just share of Income taxes. While farmers would not welcome the book keeping and bother involved in withholding taxes for their employes, some of them have recently expressed themselves in agreement with the contention that withholding taxes, if applied to one class of employe, should be applied to all. If there is as much interest generally as is indicated in this area, extension of withholding taxes to farm workers may become an important issue before congress. That Bond Lag A FAVORITE talk topic, in the groups with whom we have forgathered recently, is the question as to what is causing the lag in the war bond campaign. Concern over the Sixth War Loan drive is felt not only in Klamath county, but apparently ever this entire section of the Pacific coast Some blame it on Santa Claus, pointing out that the campaign is unfortunately : running right along with Christmas shopping. Others contend : that the reaction from the election has some-. thing to do with it. Two visitors from a nearby town, comment ing on the problem, said this, in effect: "We have discovered that it has been the same people in campaign after campaign who have been giving the drive to war bond efforts and have been buying most of the bonds, while others have shown no interest and have contributed little in the way of purchasing. These people are getting fed up. They think it is time for somebody else to do a little work and to make a few sacrifices." That may offer a clue to at least one cause of the bond campaign lag. Every man can examine his own conscience and determine whether he belongs in the shirker class. 0 o a Not a Hospital A HEADLINE in the Siskiyou News reminds us how difficult it is to convince people that the Klamath Marina Barracks' is not a hospital. Says the News head: "Major Joe Foss in Hospital at Klamath Falls." Major Joe Foss is not in any hospital. He is at the Marine Barracks, doing a job there. In his spare time he has done some hunting, and could the News headwriter see him in . action in a duck swamp, he would not regard Major Joe Foss as a candidate for the hospital. We thought the rugged Marine Barracks football team had put an end to the delusion that the local institution is a hospital. Can You Match This Sacrifice? THE Navy Cross is the second highest combat award in this nation. Behind it's presenta tion usually is a story of almost unbelievable deeds of heroism beyond the call of duty. When the 22nd marines landed on Eniwetok islet in February this year, Corporal Clifford Gilbert, an acting communications man, covered his shining red hair with a well camouflaged helmet, squared his shoulders, and started fight ing. For 12 hours he carried a reel of telephone wire and a sound power phone to observation posts ahead of the front lines. There, he'd calmly survey the situation and call back the enemy s position to his commanding officer- always accurately, invariably benefitting the lusscd, exhausted youths behind him. When the enemy had been pushed back to the last remaining tip of the island, Gilbert and his company were faced with a fanatical, half mad adversary. To wipo them out would be costly and dangerous. Two platoons moved up and attempted to cross a Jap fire lane. Every man, except Gil bert and three others were killed or wounded. Gilbert was not hit he hooked his sound power phone on the terminals and began calling back the disposition of the enemy. Repeatedly, the Japs started counterattacks, first on one flank and then on another but Gilbert didn't move he stayed and directed the reserve platoon behind him into the most advantageous positions. There were 300 Nips SO yards in front of him, firmly entrenched in well fortified pill boxes when he called on tank destroyers to knock them out and not until they came up and the fortifications were eliminated, did he return to his company. Gilbert thought that his turn was next every moment that he laid there but he continued to do what he considered his duty because there was a group of American men behind him whose lives were in danger. Can you honestly say that you arc behind courageous men like Gilbert? To Maat -Three home vtmv sion units will meet next week on lucsduy, December 5.

The War Today By DaWITT MaeKENZIE Associated Press War Analyst BERLIN commentators continue to insist that General Eisenhower has assigned to Field Marshal Montgomery and his 21st army group, on the allied northern wing, the task of de livering tho assault calculated to break through the nazi defenses and precipitate the crisis in the battle of the Cologne plain. Well, far be it from us to argue that point. As a matter of fact, we find no flaw in the idea. A powerful flanking movement on that northern wing certainly may be the high "C" of the allied offensive. And what captain could handle it better than the great Montgomery, who won his marshal's baton as one of the war's greatest tactical ex perts. That operation will call for quick and sure judgment. a Haymaker Coming -AHAT Berlin doesn't know, however, and VV what we don't know, is when General Ike is likely to swing his haymaker. My own idea is that it now depends largely on the weather clear skies for the all-important air forces, and frost that will tighten up the awful fields of mud. Up to this point there have been other factors causing delay. One, of course, has been the necessity of ironing out strategical lumps in the allied battlelinc as a while, and, while there still is spade work to be done, our front seems fairly well set. Another vital factor has related tb supplies, but this problem now has been solved by the opening only four days ago of the great port of Antwerp. And what a re lief that was! a a a a Up To Weather Man THAT puts it up to the weather man, who's been mighty unfriendly to our side. Still, the allied command was well aware that the old fellow, was bound to be short-tempered at this time of year. Thus Eisenhower acted de liberately when he took his chances again with the elements against which he has pitted his wits steadily since the stormv crisis nf th Normandy invasion. j So today we see Nazi Field Marshal von j Rundstedt's 400-mile battle line under the fierce ! pressure of six allied armies with other allied i forces ready to come into action. He has committed about everything he can muster to the final defense. Both sides arc poised for the big test which will indicate how long the Euronenn war will Inst.

The Truth Shall Make You Free In the midst of conflicting religious teaching and denominational error of the world today. It Is wonderful to know that there is one thing that can cast out error: Truth is as precious today as ft has ever been and Is likewise as powerful. The word of God, which is trulh, is as potent today in destroying error as ever; and even today the word of God. which cannot be broken, still says, "The word which gooth forth out of my mouth shall not return unto me void, but will accomplish the purpose whereunto I hare lent It," Many churches and preachers have died spiritually, while increasing in numbors, because they have turned from the truth. Those- who accept their invitation and "join" them in thoir work, which is not a work of preaching the truth but is a suppression of the truth, are not fro from In and error but are only more deeply embedded tn It, Those who suppress the truth; those who compromise with error for popularity; those who preach the pleasing platl. tudes .which tickle the ears of men; all such are like unto the robed Pharisees of old who would compan sea and land to make one proselyte and, when he had become such, he was twofold more a child of hell than before, Jesus said. Truth must be preached. Truth must be contrasted with error. Truth must be used as the sword to destroy error and free those in its grasp. Truth must be preached In pulpit and press; In tract and book, In sermon and song, until It shall cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. RAYMOND I. GIBBS, Evangelist.
