Today's Roundup
By MALCOLM EPLEY
rHE Klamath County chamber of commerce,
now engaged in some of the most important
work in its history, is seeking pjfflga)
wraenea support inrougn a
county-wide membership cam- V
paign that grew out of a mem- p
ber meeting Monday night.
There are scores of busi
ness, professional, industrial
and agricultural people, as
well as others, who are needed
in the civic organization, which
is devoting its efforts to the
welfare of this community and
its surrounding area.
while membership is now EPLEY
at an all-time high, the work that the chamber
is doing deserves the increased support through
widened affiliations. The personal interest of
the people who belong to the chamber is more
important than the modest membership fee.
Communities which have permitted their
chambers of commerce to languish during the
war period are beginning to realize the mistake
they made. Klamath's chamber has found the
period a real challenge, calling for more work
for community, state and country, rather than
less.
We are absolutely certain that If we had
abandoned the chamber the day war broke out,
we would have re-organized it, or started a
similar agency, within a month. The chamber
has performed an indispensable current service,
along with the work it has done for the
future.
We have discovered that there are people
who are hurt because they have not been
invited to join the chamber. The membership
of any interested person is welcome, whether
contacted by a membership worker, and those
who volunteer will be demonstrating their in
terest in the welfare of the community even
more impressively than those who respond to
personal solicitation.
The Klamath chamber is not a reactionary or
ganization. Its committees and board have
tackled the problems of policy as they came
along with open minds, and have sought to
reach conclusions that will benefit the greatest
number of people in our community.
A membership card in the Klamath chamber
is a badge of community service.
The War Today
By DeWITT MtcKENZIE
Associated Press War Analyst
THE European war has just about touched
the peak of its crisis on both eastern and
western fronts, for now (if ever) is the time
when the Germans, having reached their Oder
line of defenses after the great retreat across
Poland, should begin to make their final des
perate stand.
And desperate it is, for the nazi leaders are
deliberately sacrificing German)' to their own
hopeless personal interests. It's one of history's
maddest chapters. The inevitable finish, so far
as concerns Hitlerdom, will be gotterdammerung
the end of the world..
On both fronts the allies are exerting more
and more pressure against the Germans' main
fortified positions. The two great mill-stones
at last have their grist firmly between them
and are grinding hard. No single grain can
escape,
Less Spectacular
OPERATIONS on the western front at the
moment are far less spectacular than the
rapid movements of the mammoth red drives,
but General Eisenhower's steady thrusts are
rapidly creating an explosive situation. Both
Moscow and Berlin insist that he is about to
launch an all-out offensive, and the way things
stand that certainly could happen. However, be
that as may, the strength with which he it
smashing into the German west wall is bound
to produce one of two results.
Either it will precipitate the much talked
of battle of the Cologne plain, or it will compel
Nazi Field Marshal Von Rundstedt to with
draw his entire force back across the Rhine
for a stand on the east bank.
It's a fair guess that Eisenhower would prefer
the fight on the Cologne plain where there's
room to use his armor and maneuver for an
nihilation of the enemy force. Perhaps he will
get this chance, for many of the Rhine bridges
have been knocked out by allied bombing, and
Rundstedt would find it a hazardous operation
to try to withdraw his forces, especially if decent
flying weather permitted our airforce to get at
the retreating army,
Resumption of Operations
AS a matter of fact Eisenhower's present
operations are a resumption of those he
was carryjjig out when Rundstedt halted them
with his ill-fated offensive that created the
short-lived Belgian bulge. Actually the allied
commander in chief is now in better position
than he was when the German attack was
launched. Furthermore, Rundstedt s casualties
have been so heavy that, taking into account
some troops which he reportedly has sent to
the eastern front, he lacks sufficient reserves
to man his defenses.
On the eastern front the red generals are
continuing their pile-driver blows at the heart
of the German fortified line, but with due pre
cautions. They aren't overlooking the large
Hitlerite forces on both their flanks and arc
proceeding to neutralize these as they thrust
their central spear-head towards the golden
prize of Berlin.
While main interest naturally centers in the
73 mile stretch of the Oder river which the
Russians have reached opposite the capital,
their amazing offensive really is made up of
four great interlocking drives. In the north
they're headed for the big port of Stettin at
the mouth of the Oder, thus protecting the
flank of their second thrust, which is aimed at
Berlin itself. The third push is in the import
ant Breslau, sector of Upper Silesia, and the
fourth is on the extreme southern flank, head
ing into Czechoslovakia to complement the
Hungarian operation..
The focal point is the 20 mile Kustrin-Frank-furt
sector on the Oder directly east of Berlin.
This is one of the strongest parts of the German
"line. Kustrin is a first class fortress and Frank
furt has been a center of warfare since the
fifteenth century. These two cities are the main
shield of the capital.

War Relief Committee to
Step Up Work on Clothing
Cessation of fighting in Eu
rope will by no means put an
end to activities of the Christian
Science war relief units
throughout the United States.
These units, in fact, are being
asked to greatly increase their
output in order to assist in the
gigantic task of reclothing the
liberated populations of the con
t i n e n t. Information obtained
from government and private
sources indicates that the need
for clothing will be even great
er than that for food. It is to
help meet this acute need that
the Christian science war relief
committee, in common with
other war relief agencies, is
stepping up rather than curtail
ing its program as the fighting
in Europe appears to be ap
proaching its final phase.
Now at the end of Its fourth
year, the committee finds that
tt has distributed approximately
i.ozz.uoa garments to the needy
overseas. About 1,634,787 of
them went to England; the rest
to refugees and, as the occasion
developed, to liberated coun
tries in continental Europe.
These garments are distributed
without regard for any church
affiliation.
A recent shipment brought
the total of supplies sent out
from the Klamath Falls unit
during the last year up to 415
pounds. The local committee
has been working steadily and
ha added knitting- to its other
activities since the call for
knitted garments has become so
urgent.
Warm, used garments in good
condition are wanted at once
for men, women, children and
infants. Sturdy shoes are also
needed; likewise household lin
ens and blankets. Garments too
badly worn to be repaired arc
reconstructed into children's
clothing.
The workshop Is not located
in the basement of the church,
10th and Washington. Anyone
who wishes to help with this
work, either sewing or knitting,
is invited to attend on Thurs
days from I to 4. Those who
have donations they would like
to make may leave them at the
church during those hours or
at the Western Auto Supply,
through the courtesy of Rex
Hiatt, the manager.
Sincere appreciation is ex
pressed by the committee to the
people of Klamath Falls and
vicinity who have contributed
so generously to this cause, to
Hiatt for his kindness, to the
Bend-Portland truck service for
shipping the boxes free of
charge, to Moe's store for their
generous gift, to the Men's
Hand laundry and the Reliable
Cleaners for the work they have
done without charge during the
lost jour years. Also to tne ones
who have given of their time.

comment from Wheeler that the
NYA had offered "the most con
structive of any of the relief
programs that were administ
ered." Later Wheeler, who often is
at odds with the administration,
told a reporter he Intends to
vote to confirm Williams as rural
electrification administrator.
Republicans and some demo
crats, however, loaded opposition
guns. Some of them dipped In
to tho files of the old Dies com
mittee or ammunition in an ef
fort to block confirmation.
Senator Bankhead (D-Ali.),
one of Williams' supporters on
tho comlttee, raised the com
munist Issue.
"Were you ever a communist
or did you ever associate with
any communist group?" Bank
head asked the witness.
"No, sir," Williams replied.
'I have never attended a meet.
Ing of any communist group and
never knowingly employed a
communist."

The Sirgfrlod Hue is said in

One wonders what Is meant uy
"crumbling." It's a fair guess
Hint the Siegfried defenses in

West front correspondents say
In dispatches passed by the cen
sorship that nul resistance in
tho Slcgirica line luieiy has up
nvurcd so snotty as to tuuucat
STRONGLY that the Go nihil
army has sapped Its western
strength TOO MUCH In its
alarm to speed troops to tho
Russian front."
That, If true, would bo ex
tremely significant.
Eisenhower must be waiting
for some such sign of weakness
to launch the big attack that he
must bo all ready nnd waiting
for.
An all-out offensive In the
west, while tho Russians uic
pounding at Berlin's gates from
tho east, would certainly look

British system is called a by-
election) it looks as if the antl-
conscriplionlsts have won a vic
tory that moy result In dissolu
tion of the Canadian parliament
and a new general election.
What is hnnnenlng in Canada
(including vnguo stories of riots,
mass desertion, etc.) is still a
mystery to the general run of ns
on this side ot tho border. In
our general lack of enlighten
ment, we set It down as having
something to do with the French
Canadian problem that always
has been posed by Quebec.
We'll be wise If we reserve

Detroit, Senator Arthur
Vandenberg tells a home-state
audience that It is time for Amer
ica to "sign up now with all hor
major allies to loin In a hard-
and-fast treaty" to keep the'peaco
after tho war Is won and says he
will continue to urge such a
policy.
(He thinks fear of what Amer
ica will and WON'T do has been
responsible for British and Rus
sian moves AWAY FROM tho
Atlantic charter principles and
toward the old principles of
power politics.)
rte adds; "it is t me for us to
say what we will do. It is time
for us to say what wo will not
do. It Is time for us to START
THE DOING."
In evaluating this statement.
remember that Vandcnbem Is a
REPUBLICAN.
