Aseocieted Fraaa Member Audit Bureau Circulation: Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY 1 A FEW brief ones today about the Klamath water diversion, and we'll let that matter rest for a while. Folks hereabouts are probably getting a little weary of the subject, important as it is. From what developed i3"! at yesterdays nearing, tv up- w ' i .1 m i 1 n T - I pears mat uieie win ub -iu,j,b iJ time to talk about it later on. fp-l We got the definite impres- lon that despite the consider able amount of technical work done by the engineers, there is still a lot they are not sure of about this whole scheme. Klamath interests not only in jected some important facts calling for nossible revisions. but it was divulged that the EPLEY fish and wildlife service may need FIVE YEARS to look into the fish and game angle of the proposal. Fish and wildlife people, in fact, geemed to know startlingly little about it. The engineers indicated they would not want to wait five years but they probably will not get it done in August, the tentative date for finishing the report. Three Schemes IT should be emphasized that the engineers suggested three possible schemes. No. 1 is the upper Klamath diversion that has raised the holler in this neck of the woods. No. 2 would provide for storage on Sprague river, like No. 1, but would not call for di version. There might be objection to details, etc., in this area, but some plan with added reservoir capacity somewhere, is definitely in line if we are going to proceed with maximum agricultural development. No. 3 calls for diversion from the Trinity river, in the lower end of the basin. Klamath people will have to look further into that one. Trinity diversion might also be found objection able here. Hey, f, There's a War On! ONE sidelight of interest is the fact that the engineers are doing all of this in the midst of a war. Most of us had the idea engineers were pretty much in demand for direct war effort activities. Engineering staffs over the country have been depleted, yet here the army engineers are making an exhaustive study that must require a tremendous amount of time. Not just their time, either.- It has used up a vast amount of time and energy from other people who are forced to work on the tiling, one way or another, in response to the engi neers' request for pertinent public opinion and independent information. A lot of Klamath peo ple we know all of them busy people in essen tial work have had to put in hours and hours in advance of this hearing. And there is one more point. Many of the people who would be affected by any .radical project are not here at this time. They are away fighting the war. They cannot be heard. We haven't a thing against the engineers per sonally, but we think somebody along the line had a peculiar idea of timing. News Behind the News By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, Feb. 21 The crux of Li vadia's vision of the postwar world lies in the arrangement proposed for handling future war makers. While Mr. Roosevelt is supposed to have written this compromise (Byrnes said), it stands upon the Russian position, assumed at Dum barton Oaks with such fervor then as to cause disruption of their earlier conference without final agreement. Not until the carefully chosen words of the text are made public can the chances of future wars be conclusively assayed. But the un official explanations of it (from senators and officials) all say Russia won her point, and indicate it was done in this way: The Big Five can take up any important case of future threatened war by a majority vote, but steps to prevent that war can be taken or.lv by unanimous vote. Now any important move toward the next war could only involve one of the Big Five, because no other nation will have any arms left when this one is over. And any of the Big Five could veto united action. What would this mean? Primarily it would mean that the post war peace organisation could prevent war by anyone except the Big Five. If Russia, the United SUtes, Britain, China or France, wanted to go to war against any nation, or against each other, tne peace deal would be off and it would be every nation for itself. If Russia vetoed united action, we would have to make up our minds what we would dp. fight or appease, ally with Britain or China, if they chose, or what? e e a Not Very Powerful THIS is not a very powerful preventative of future wars. In practical application, it would only prevent wars among smaller nations Bolivia and Paraguay, possibly, but not Russia and Italy. It would not possibly stop any aggression by anv member of the Big Five. To do that, the other nations would have to get together on the outside, and fight for Italy against Russia. This then is only a peace agreement, until the first important threat to peace comes up, and then the deal is off, and we will see what happens. What does this arrangement mean In the fundamental conflict of idealogies between Rus sian totalitarianism and Anglo-American capital istic democracy which already has become the dominant factor of post war world diplomacy? It does nothing to resolve that conflict, leaves everything to the future. I would say It throws that question Into the field of constant debate and negotiation. There are some American officials who believe Russia will be sincere in seeking full and free elections of the democratic kind in post war nations; others who think her totalitarian advocates will merely use elections for the gaining of dicta torial controls (Hitler did in democratic Ger many.) We shall see. - Meanwhile there is no justification in this settlement for American disarmament in view of the necessity of protecting our interests against vetoes. e e e e Popular Result TODAY this conference result Is very popular. It would be absurd to try to guess what our people will think of it in the future. Re member Munich? That appeasement of Hitler by which he got what he wanted in Czecho slovakia was popular immediately after its an nouncement. Only later were men hounded into oblivion and smeared with labels of fascism for having approved that Chamberlain pact which he said meant "peace in our time." (Don't look at me, as I bitterly opposed it from the beginning, being against Hitler from the very moment he challenged democracy with his totalitarian phil osophy in Mein Kempf and long before he came into any power. I wrote the French should have killed him when he moved into the Rhineland.) The Sunday after the Munich settle ment, however, the New York Times (which also said a good word for Munich) reported: "Reassured by the sharp turn of affairs to ward peace, the president prepared to leave for Hyde Park." Mr. Roosevelt also (Sept. 30) asked the people to join with him and his family Sunday in prayer for continued peace of the world. State Secretary Hull said: "As to immediate peace results, it is unneces sary to say that they afforded a universal sense of relief." Attributed to FDR THE famed British correspondent, Sir Wilmott Lewis, in a speech, went further and at tributed the Munich settlement to Mr. Roosevelt saying: "The determining factor in deflecting the current of events in the direction of peace in the present European crisis was the intervention of President Roosevelt at the last moment." Mr. Roosevelt publicly praised the great work of all his ambassadors in the matter (his leading ambassador in that matter was Joseph P. Ken nedy who has been pilloried and left public office because our fanatics called him a Munich appeaser.) I did not look up this record on Munich in criticism of anyone, but to illustrate that the immediate reaction to international settlements does not always represent the long rar.ge con victions of the people. SIDE GLANCEl Ship Captain Remains on Job Despite Appendicitis PORTLAND, Ore., Feb. 21 UP) A ship captain who ignored a ruptured appendix to remain on the job today received a meri torious service citation signed by Lt. Gen. Brehon Somervell. Capt. John A. Higgins, 57, Se attle, was rushing through a mine cable laying task in the North Atlantic early in the war. Appendicitis hit. He was warned that Jack of quick medical atten tion might mean death. "I'll chance it," said Higgins. "We've got a mighty important job at hand." He stayed, giving directions first from the bridge, finally from bed till the mine cable was laid. Eleven days later he reached a surgeon and found that gan grene had set it. Ever since, he has walked with a limp. Higgins, commander of a con crete ship here for training stevedors of the transportation corps, received his citation at the Portland sub-port of em barkation today.
